My Droid's Bug List...

dew912 · Feb 13, 2010

In order of seriousness, here we go....

1) I still must press my phone firmly against my face just for people to hear me.
2) No audio after headphones. Sporadically.
3) Can't hear a caller after unplugging headphones. Sporadically.
4) Crackling in high notes in music player via headphone jack (to multiple sources). Fairly consistently.
5) Music player randomly stops outputting audio. Sparingly

#1 here especially, number 5 too.

Those aren't normal, you could consider getting it replaced.

Sounds like your droid is defective to me.

I've heard number one quite a lot, there's a huge thread about it at Motorola site. My UK milestone is the same. Interestingly the problem vanishes when you use something like Skype. I think it has something to do with noise cancelling.

My only problem is the sound after headphone unplug.....

Flip that phone, warranty time!

Use a bit more force when removing the plug. This happens with almost all players, it still thinks the headphones are in.

I've had a couple of droids. This one is not defective. Same problems as the rest. Hopefully 2.1 fixes some of these problems

hmm i have one of my own to add. The phone switching itself off! Went to make a call on it this morning and it was completely dead (battery was fully charged). After a search on google it seems that is also a problem that has affected quite a lot of people. :/

I had this one as well. Exactly as you described. After the <sarcasm> "very knowledgeable" </sarcasm> Verizon store worker preached to me about task killer, etc. he finally gave me a replacement battery. This was about a month ago and I haven't had any problems since.

I have problems with #3 as well....Very annoying.
#4 I have this problem..
#5 My music player will turn on party shuffle when I set my phone down.
My orientation has serious lag issues and I have to shake the phone sometimes to correct itself.

I went to Verizon today and of course my phone wouldn't duplicate.
I had the option of a different phone or wait until the update in late March that will cover a lot of these issues (according to rep) I'm going to wait and see, or until it I get to the point of throwing my Droid at the wall.

Same problem here. This was helpful to me:

I have #4 and 5 numerous times and now in high pitched songs it starts crackling and giving me really high pitched squeals and beeping!

dew912 · Feb 14, 2010

These problems are no fun at all

Hegemony · Feb 14, 2010

Yeah, I've had the headphone problems. I've exchanged five Droids because of the headphone/earpiece thing . They all start doing it eventually. I listen to a lot of audio, so this has been a big annoyance. I'm currently selling the Droid. Its weird that Moto would cheap our on this part.

2 and 3 have been happening lately. I've had it since 1rst of December and just started doing this. Happened about 4 times last week.

Think it is software or headphone jack problem?
