    Unsure on LG Optimus S or Kyocera Milano through Ting...

    I'm probably going to jump from Verizon to Ting very soon, and right now they're selling a refurbished LG Optimus S for $73 and the Kyocera Milano for $105, and i'd like some suggestions on which one might be worth getting. From every review the Kyocera Milano seems to have a worse screen and...

My main...

    FYI on how I copy APK's from my DroidX to Fire - No rooting or tethering --

    Hey Guys -- I'm not a fan of rooting and I'm too lazy to tether my phone, but I've found a very simple way to copy APK's from my DroidX phone to my Fire (both stock and not rooted) and thought I'd share. First thing was I setup my Gmail account on the built-in EMail app. It sucks, but it's...

    Help Our DroidX phones were borked by GB -- What the heck?

    My wife and I both have DroidX phones, which came preloaded with 2.1, and though the Froyo update (2.2) made the phones much more stable and added some nice features, this latest GB update has hosed more things then it fixed/added. I guess it's good to see that we're not the only ones seeing...

    Surf and Talk when using Google Voice -- why isn't it possible?

    I've started using Google Voice for most of my calls to cut back on the amount of minutes I use, and honestly it's working great. But my biggest question with this is why can't I talk and surf when calling with Google Voice? I assume it would just go out over my broadband connection, whether...

    Help Using DroidX as a Dial-up Modem -- is this possible?

    Hey Guys -- Is it possible to use a DroidX as a dial-up modem? I'm not talking about a cable modem or some way to get on the Internet, but rather dialing into a remote server via an analog phone connection. Examples being old-school BBSes or RAS/DUN servers. Most if not all the Motorola...

    Help Phone delays on "Call Time XX:XX" after call has ended

    I don't remember my DroidX always doing this, but recently after I hang-up from a call it shows the "Call Time XX:XX" in the center of the screen and I can't do anything until it goes away, which is generally 5-8 seconds. Hitting Home, Back, etc does nothing and tapping on the screen or the...

    DroidX and frequencies outside of FM (87.8 MHz to 108.0 MHz) -- Possible?

    I haven't done any coding for the Android, but I was wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to write an app to use the FM receiver but hit frequencies outside the FM range. For example the 2M amateur radio band is 144 MHz to 148MHz and the 6M band is 50 MHz to 54 MHz which isn't too far...

    Help Questions about running tasks

    I've had my DroidX for a few weeks now and a few days ago upgraded to Froyo. The phone is pretty much stock from Verizon, so no rooting and Froyo was from OTA update. My question though is with running tasks. When I first got the phone it was commonly suggested on the forms to get a task...

    Help After 2.2 update calls have no audio -- any suggestions?

    My wife and I both have DroidX phones, and Wednesday I updated mine to Froyo with no problems then last night I updated hers. I've had no problems with mine, but on her phone when making a call neither her or the person being called can hear each other. She called me earlier from the DroidX...

    Moving to Froyo on DroidX -- worth it?

    Hey Guys -- I've had my DroidX for about a week now and love it, it's all I use in the car, at work, and even at home for audio. I've heard from lots of folks, including co-workers, that Froyo hosed their audio playback, and now most audio sounds like it's either coming through a tin can or...

    Notification on Emails only from users in my contacts -- is this possible?

    Hi Everyone, I've had my DroidX for a week now and love it, but one thing I'm finding annoying is it plays notification sounds on all email which isn't ideal. I get numerous newsletters, many of which send out late at night, but I'd like to get notification on emails only sent from people in...
