I have had a phone for many years now and recently upgraded by Black Berry to get a Droid and talked my wife into leaving AT&T and coming over to VZW.
So here starts the problem and my thread will have multiple questions because i'm kind of a noob when it comes to 3g? What is it.. and are the droids using it to talk or just for data? Both phones will sit on 3g with lots of signal untill a call comes in or is placed then the 3g dissapears and the signal goes down to only a bar or two?
The second part of this is my wife's droid crashed while in the home sreen.. no response from any key or power button. Had to pull the battery. Ever since that happen the unit continues to drop calls.. usually only allowing a 10 second call each time? The data has been working fine but now today i noticed it's not connecting up like it should "facebook" "media market center" Just says error in communicating?
I'm beggining to think something happened to it after that hard crash because the other droid even though it has low signal works just fine at home? I have not dropped one call and all email data seems to work quickly and flawlessly.
I did bring it in yesterday to VZW yesterday but sadly i ended up with a "new girl" She did the *228 and then stated she would flash it. End result was it already has the most up to date software on it and she would put in a service ticket for my area?
I'll try again tomorrow and ask that they replace the phone.. it's still well with in the first 30 days.
Any other thoughts??
Thanks to all.. very awesome site.. i'm glad i stumbled across it
