Motorola Xoom :: Stopping Startup Programs?
Apr 23, 2011
In Windows they have programs that are in a startup folder and automatically run when you boot up. You can prevent them from running easily.In the Xoom I see some programs doing the same thing. Like Maps. I have no need for the Maps app to be running normally. I doubt if I would ever use it. I have GPS for the vehicles and mostly go to known locations now anyway.I don't want to remove the app particularly. You never know when you might decide it would be good to run it

I have a Verizon Xoom running 3.2, and since the update it appers as though I cannot open a link to a web page, or a document from a file browser (File Manager HD and ES File Explorer) or a link from Newsr feed reader. when I click on a link, the screen darkens a bit as if transitioning, but then nothing happens.

I have a 22" TV monitor which by e.g. a USB memory stick loaded with e.g. avi files, can show a film. On my Xoom I can (re)play Swedish TV programs via the Android app SVT Play (https://market.android.com/details?se.svt.svti.android.newstuff.svtplay&feature=search_result#?W251bGwsMSwyLDEsInNlLnN2dC5zdnRpLmFuZHJvaWQubmV3c3R1ZmYuc3Z0cGxheSJd). Is it possible to transfer what I see on my Xoom to my 22" TV monitor. If yes, howto?

Most of the time when I startup my Xoom it will not play any sound that I can hear. If I hold the volume up button and the power button to reboot then the sound is fine. Has anyone else heard of this problem and is there a fix or just to continue what i have been doing.

For the last few weeks whenever I go out for a run my music pauses on it's own. I then "un-pause" it and have to turn the volume back up and carry on. In some cases I cannot get the music to resume at all and I have to restart the moto. I have also found that if I start my music before I press start for the workout the music will pause when I press start. Initially it has been doing this under 10 times per 2 hour run. This morning it paused, without exageration, nearly 100 times. Needless to say I was cussing like a sailor for the duration of my run.

I'm using the standard Alarm & Timer app that comes with the Motorola XPRT. Does anyone have the problem that if the alarm is set to vibrate, it wont stop vibrating even after the alarm is snoozed or turned off?

why Apple put a hardware silence switch on the iphone. Turning this thing on / off, or even launching apps (especially games) is impossible to do in any scenario when you can't make any noise since there's no way to be sure it's not going to start making noise.For example ...you're sitting in a meeting, you need to turn on your phone (or reboot or whatever) so you cleverly do so without anyone noticing, but the Atrix rewards you with a power-beep plus notification tones for the internal and SD storage.

I had an interesting experience after the update on my run today. Up to now my MOTOACTV has been fine, but today I had the music just stop several times mid-workout and it would not start again for several minutes despite pressing the "music" button quickly or even going to the music screen and pressing the play button. Within a few minutes of trying, however, it would start back up like normal. Also, my heart rate monitor was dropped once, but "sef-healed" and it seemed to be about 10-15 bpm off from normal at times. (This could be a low battery on the hrm, so I'll replace that and try again).

I had activated the screen lock feature for my mobile. I had used fingerprint detection and the password method. I discovered that if the password is entered wrong 5 times, the phone erases all the data on the phone as well as the memory card. I want to disable this feature.When the password is entered wrong 5 times. It should just not allow the user to enter password for another 5 minutes.

I have looked in other arias but still do not see how to get programs to use the ext sd card. The biggest on for me is Tape Machine. I need to be able to save my recordings to the ext sd card as some of my recordings go almost 2 hrs in wav so that they are easy to play anyware.On a different note this phones is great. The signal reception for data and wifi is unreal it beats any phone I have ever owned.

I have not been able to synchronize music to my new Droid X2. When I connect the phone to my PC (Windows 7 x64), I get a computer pop-up that says "Drivers are being installed." This installation always fails. When I open Windows Media Player and hit the "Sync" tab, no device is listed.
According to the Motorola website, Motorola Media Link "allows you to easily transfer, sync, manage, back up and share your phone's content." Sure. The link to the program itself redirects to MotoCast USB, a separate (and apparently new) program which wirelessly syncs my music with my phone. The webpage says it does not physically sync my music. This program does not run when I click on its icon. When I found the .exe file in MS Explorer, I got a BSoD.
I just want a simple way to connect my phone to my computer to transfer my music. I would also appreciate it if Motorola was consistent on its own website about exactly what programs are available for users and what they do.

Are antivirus programs needed with Android? I ran one for a while on WM but it seemed to slow everything way down on the system.I thought I had read that android was fairly protected but it could pass from your phone to your pc when plugged in via usb.

Is there a way that the music on/off button could be used to advance to the next song (in a future update of course)? I run to the music beat and sometimes want to speed up/sloww down the music selection without stopping to advance the music. Just a thought

Using my work laptop (Lenove T400) to connect to my phone via Motorola Media Link. But everytime I start my laptop, the motohelperagent.exe takes up 50% of my available CPU and keeps taking it unless I kill it via the task manager.

When I turn my phone on in the morning it will boot up fine. Then a few minutes later its "dead". (it never did this before the update).
I end up having to pull the battery. Then power it up again. and it will usually die again. After the 3rd time it seems ok.
Also it still comes on after shutting down once in a while. Not every night tho.

I bought the device few days ago and on very same day updated to Android ver. 3.2. I use internet over my home Wifi and have a Netgear - WGR614 router. The browsing speed is very very slow and most sites dont open.The signal strength shown in xoom is - (-105 dBm 3 asu).Is this a issue with Android 3.2 update or my home wifi is weak? Would i be able to reset the tab to the original version?

I have an XPRT that I obtained from Sprint 30 days ago. Like phone but having issues with screen freezing up when phone turned on. I travel and must turn off phone when getting on plane. Once I get off, I turn on XPRT and it appears to boot up but then freezes or the screen goes blank. I pull the battery, re-insert battery, and power on. Same thing will happen again so I pull battery and go through same cycle. Usually after two cycles, the phone is fine but it can take 4 or more. I took the phone back to the Sprint store where it was purchase and it happened to the tech while he was trouble-shooting this problem. He did not have an answer and he looked at widgets and aps and saw nothing unusual. All apps or widgets are either from Android market or Motorola. Phone has been charged using Motorola supplied charger. Sprint store took back this phone and game me a new one. Seemed to work ok but just go back from trip and same issues. I turned the phone off last evening and turned it on this morning. It would boot up but took 4 cycles to quit either freezing or blank screen. This is getting to be a painful solution. I do have the latest software installed.

MotoCast WiFi is fantastic! I love it! Except at boot-up time on my PC.
I run MotoCast WiFi on my trusty XP desktop. It is not a wimpy machine, but it isn't a quad-core screamer either. When I boot it up with MotoCast Wifi set to load automatically, MotoCast immediately starts grabbing almost all of the disk IO. Worse than Windows Search Indexer, worse than Google Music Manager. My computer becomes almost crippled for almost 20 minutes, and the disk drive with my docs and music library on it sounds like a jackhammer through it all.
So; is there a way to delay the MotoCast startup? And/or is there a way to set MotoCast to back off a little bit when rescanning my files? (It's like MotoCast has no sense of "only what's changed".)

Has anyone had any success with using Wifi that required user certificates? I'm trying to get my Xoom to connect to the corporate network (EAP-TLS) and followed the instructions for the IPad and imported my certificated into Android correctly. But when I connect, it hangs at the connecting state for minutes, before finally giving up.

I would like to buy the XOOM speaker dock and play music from my XOOM on a daily basis.... I'm worried about having it plugged (and charging) in too much and that I might GREATLY reduce the battery life by charging my XOOM too much.

I love my Droid M so far, but I really don't like the startup animation. How can I at least disable the sound, and ideally, disable both the animation and the sound?
I'm seen posts that refer to renaming files under "System/Media", but I don't see that path on my phone.
