Anyone else hate the stupid honeycomb animation on power up?

i get they were trying to impress but yeah i dont care too much about it either. the first boot up screen the evo had was just sub par for a phone of that caliber back in june 2010 we were all scratching our heads.. they did remove it later, so perhaps moto will add some pizzaz to another one.

i think those who have rooted can remove this...

I don't get it... why would anyone ever turn their tablet off? The point of "instant on" is waking from being asleep right? Why power it off at all?


That's the only reason I'd forgot about mention my annoyance til now.

(I had an led notification and restarted it to see if it would clear it. I normally leave it on all the time.)

I've been using mine for a month now and never froze up even once. What are you running?

When it locks up? Pretty much anything. Often using the browser surfing the net. Today it locked up when I went from playing Fruit Ninja and hit home. It also locked up once when I was using the browser and hit the multitasking button and tried to go to the Phandroid App. It also locked up when I tried to go from the Facebook app directly to the Gmail app today. It does it all the time. I figured everyone's does this. :thinking:

Hmmm....I'm wondering if you might have a problem. As I said, mine has never done actually locked up. Not sure about others...
