    Root [Verizon] Why does Email app FC when opening calendar invitation?

    I've been carefully doing some debloating on my Verizon GS4 and suddenly found today that the native email app (which I sync with Exchange) force closes when I open a calendar invitation. All other aspects of the app work fine. Standard emails open with no problem. But if the email is an...

    Google Play icon in upper right App drawer not working.

    I had to hard reset my Galaxy Nexus today and now, for some reason, the Google Play (market) icon in the upper right corner of the App drawer is not working. Just seems to be dead. Any ideas why? FYI, I do have the "Play Store" app which will get me there, but it was always nice to have...

    Two weird things in Music app

    Help me understand this weirdness. First, several albums I've added to my SGN music library are inexplicably split into two albums. I keep looking at the file details of each song to try to figure out why ICS and/or the Music app thinks they're from different albums, but I can't solve it...

    Help Battery life just dropped off the table. What happened?

    The battery life in my SGN has been fine until today. Suddenly, it is plummeting like a rock. It just went from 65% to 4% in less than an hour with no phone usage and just a couple quick web browses. WTF?

    Help Why can't I find the Equalizer?

    I'm sorry, but this thing is fantastic!

    I understand human nature and the power of criticism, but how can there be so much nitpicking about this phone. It is simply a fantastic device, miles better than my Droid X or previous iPhone 3GS. And it has the most elegant interface of any non-Apple device I've seen. Is there a quirk or...

    Help Bricked!

    Hey guys. Got my new baby Thursday and it's been perfect...until 30 minutes ago. I went to pick it up and it was totally dead. :( No lights, nothing. So I plugged in the charger and still no signs of life. Any ideas (other than returning it tomorrow)?

    Will an unlocked Epic 4G work on Verizon?

    Simple question. I really want a Galaxy S II, but Verizon doesn't offer it. Will an unlocked Sprint Epic 4G work on Verizon, since they both are CDMA?

    Two things that bug me about stock email

    Why is there no way advance to the next most recent (or next older) email when I delete the email I'm reading (in the stock email program? The Gmail app provides this capability. It's very cumbersome to have to keep returning to the inbox and select the next email I want to read. Second...

    Does anyone else think it's strange...

    ...that there's no mobile version of this website? I'm not one to bitch, and do think its a great forum, but given that they chose to dump Tapatalk, it seems crazy that they don't find some way to make it less clunky to navigate from a smartphone. (Particularly since the whole flippin' site is...

    Is anyone running this new Verizon app? I downloaded it but can't seem to get Verizon to give me credentials. I figured my Verizon account credentials would work but they won't. But every time I to get FiOS credentials I get a "time out" error in the browser. Anyone else?

    Help Contacts help please

    I use Outlook/Exchange as my primary contact database, so I only wanted to sync my DX with Exchange for contacts. However, before I was able to get to my Google account settings on the X to tell it not to sync Google contacts - it had already synced them. Now, my contacts are a mess because of...

    Accessories Don't use stock battery cover with extended battery!

    I know there are quite a few folks saying that it's ok to use the stock battery cover with the Verizon extended battery for Droid X, but I'd strongly suggest against it. After reading these posts, I tried using stock cover when my new extended battery arrived. My initial thought was that it...

    Are there more problems with Froyo OTA than with the leak?

    Is it my imagination or do there seem to be WAY more problems with today's OTA than there have been for those of us running the leaked Froyo. This forum is littered with bugs and negative experiences so far. I was all set to revert to 2.1 to get the "real" Froyo, but now I'm tempted to stay...

    Accessories Blu Diamond Screen Protectors = POS!

    Accidentally peeled off my Steinheil Ultra Crystal screen protector while out of town over the weekend, so I stopped by a Verizon store in Chicago to pick up some quick protection. The only option they had for the X were "Blu Diamond" brand - made in China, of course. They are absolute pieces...

    Opinions please on Droid X music sound quality

    Just curious how you guys are liking the music sound quality (out of the 3.5mm) on your Droid X. Since I use my phone as my primary music playing device, SQ is critical. (I typically listen with super high quality in-ear monitors - Shure SE530;s.) I haven't had a chance yet to A/B with my...

    Help Ugh! Help me get back to Launcher Pro!

    This is embarrassing. I downloaded Widget Locker and was messing around, and somehow selected the "old" stock launcher as default. I've tried everything I can think of but can't get back to my beautifully customized Launcher Pro Plus screens. What did I do? And how do I get back to Launcher...

    Help Battery Best Practices

    Quick newb question. Got my new extended battery today. Before I start using it I wanted to make sure I took the right initial step to ensure maximum battery life. I assume I'll find it with a partial charge when I place it in my DX. Should I fully deplete it before fully charging it? Or...

    Anyone jumping ship to Fascinate?

    Since I'm coming up on my 30 day return window, I figured I'd see if any DroidXers were defecting to the Samsung Fascinate. After reading various reviews, I see some pros and cons, but not sure I see any compelling reasons to switch.
