    Houston Newspaper trashes AT&T!

    I had just purchased a Galaxy Note a few weeks ago. Speed Tests in Houston fluctuated... connected, not connected.... connected, not connecetd... It would time-out due to "no data connection", but wait 3 seconds and have blazing, mind-numbing speedtests at 45 mb/sec. Coming from 3G, anything...

    Help Lightening fast 4G in the morning. Dead slow the rest of the day.

    Ex-Droid owner, Ex-Dell Streak owner, New Galaxy Note owner! Just got my $49 Note, refurbished, from ATT. Day 4 of ownership and I experience about 30mbps in the early morning hours which quickly dwindles down to maybe 1mbps by 10am -- and stays like that for the remainder of the day. I...

    Help YouTube videos switch portrait/landscape randomly

    While watching almost any video, it jumps from portrait to landscape and back again. Not always, but enough to be annoying. :mad: This occurs while holding the phone still, and is with or without auto-rotate checked, it still does this. Any suggestions?

    Root Did I just screw the pooch?

    I've had DroidMod for a while, installed Titanium Backup, Rom Manager, etc... Played around and used Rom Mgr to try Bugless Beast and have had that for a while. Restored back and forth to DroidMod (which was actually not bad, after all). Saw the option on Rom Manager to try Froyo 2.2...

    Root DroidMod vs Froyo

    Wow... been away for tooooooooo long!! I got transferred to west Texas where there was NO VERIZON. All I had was dial-up. I forgot how painfully s-l-o-w dialup was. I'd log into gmail and have to come back 20 minutes later to see if the page finished loading just to check email. Dayum...

    Root May 2010 -- what's new with DroidMod?

    Nothing.:p Good thing I'm loving me some Cyanogen!:D Sorry. Still fuming that I "lost" 3 months of playtime with other ROMS on the block, holding out for DM updates...

    Root Can't sleep? Go to DroidMod...

    I know, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. But geeeeeez, this is one helluva dynamic phone -- probably not meant to be stuck with one ROM for life! I originally liked everything about DM -- almost automatic root, automatic install and hands off everything else as far as maintenance cuz everything...

    Obnoxious SAMSUNG BEHOLD II pop-up!!!

    Holy crap... I must've been blessed with that thing 4 times in the past 3 minutes. Start reading this forum and BAM, right between the eyes. Just left Phonedog and Phonearena and GSMareana... BAM< BAM< BAM! I know it's a little thing, but wow:p... enough already!

    Weird situation with Droid purchase/return...

    I purchased the Droid thru Amazon for $119. To make a long story short, I could not get a signal and Verizon sent a tech to confirm that coverage was spotty or non-existent in my area. (Verizon's maps showed it as STRONG). The tech confirmed no coverage, so they let me out of the contract of...

    Why is Windows Mobile considered bad?

    With heavy heart, I have to send my Droid back since, even though Verizon shows that I should get great service in my area, I don't. They sent a tech out to confirm. Even tried an extender. So I'm back in the market, considering trying Nexus One with TMobile. Coming from a Motorola Razr, these...

    New DROID -- Please talk some sense into me...

    Well, after reading these forums for a month, I broke down Tuesday and grabbed myself a DROID! On the plus side, it's EVERYTHING you guys said it would be and more... On the minus side, even though the Verizon rep, according to their map, shows A+ service in my area, I get nothing. Zero...

    Droid vs Motoroi

    Well, my wife was just about to whip out the checkbook and grab a Droid for my birthday, but we both stopped dead in our tracks a few days back when we saw a new Motorola creation peek over the horizon... I know that new phones are always going to be popping up and I gotta jump in sometime...

    Are all Android platforms the same?

    I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but you guys would know better than anyone... I am soooooo close to buying a Droid. I've toyed with a co-workers and I've read probably every page on these forums. The one thing it's missing for me is HD video recording. I see some newer phones...
