Hi Guys,

Not completely inept just need some help. ;)

1. Does anyone else have a problem with widgets dissapearing, (I.e. home screen completely blank)?

2. When will flash be released for use?

3. My computer does not recognize my phone when attached. I have tried troubleshooting it on the Verizon and Motorola sites without success. Any thought?
 
Does your phone charge up while it is connected to the PC. Also when connected to the PC you have to "mount" the SD card. A notification pops up saying if you want to transfer files please mount the SD card. Select that.

As far as the screen not too sure. When was the last time you did a complete reboot. Thats shutting off then turning back on.

1. Yes, I have had this problem but I rebooted the phone and they all came back. I'm not sure what causes this.

2. The million dollar question. Nobody really knows when if ever. Yeah they said it will be out towards the end of the year but I doubt it for some reason.

3. Drivers? Other then that I'm not to sure.

Thanks! I reboot at least once a week due to the screen going blank.

As far as connecting the phone, when I connect it the USB icon appears on the phone, but the computer does not recognize the phone.


You need to pull down the status bar where the USB icon is and tell the droid that you want to transfer files... It will not try to connect to the computer unless you do that...
