Figured I would condense a bunch of threads into one.
Here are the issues I am having with my Spectrum:
Here are the issues I am having with my Spectrum:
- Battery life is OK with the extended battery. But the charging restrictions are HORRIBLE. You CAN NOT going on any lengthy trip with your screen on all the time using the moving map. Even when it's plugged into an AC or DC charger your phone WILL die. Or at least constantly discharge. So my days of using my phone as a moving map GPS and streaming Pandora on my typical 3 hour drive to my folks are over.
- Sound profiles are all messed up. I can put my phone on silent but it doesn't change ALL notifications. i.e. GMAIL and SMS/SMS msgs will still ring through unless I silence them individually. Seriously? Why can't they go the route of Blackberry and have sound profiles? I used to use Simple Sound profiles on all my other Droid devices and they worked great. Can't find one that works with the Droid.
- Call quality. CONSTANTLY people are complaining to me about sounding muffled. I have tried 2 Spectrum's with the same results. Ironically, they hear me fine if I switch over to speaker phone or bluetooth headset.
- Keyboard. I have having more and more issues with the keyboard not inputting the text into messenger. I need to open up another medium that I can type into then go back to msgr for it to work.
- Stock Browser. I am also having issues with the browser being unresponsive. You click go and nothing happens for quite a few secs. It doesn't even think. Had to download Maxton. Shouldn't HAVE to do that.
