    Traveling Internationally? Things to watch for:

    Verizon data and voice plans have changed a lot. Here are my recommendations. First, to enable calling log in to your My Verizon account and enable International Dialing. This is free. If you call a lot you can buy the $3.99 value plan which gives you a discount. Global Texting generally costs...

    Ever wondered what apps you had before a Master Reset?

    Although many people use Titanium backup, Astro or ES File Explorer to back up apps before a master reset, there is another way. https://market.android.com/mylibrary?feature=top-nav&pli=1 I know it sounds obvious but I never thought to go there. You can remote install apps right back to...

    How to stop 15 minute boot loops

    Yesterday my phone started rebooting every fifteen minutes. Usually while I was on a call. Really annoying. I figured the timing had to be a clue. Since the phone goes into power saver mode after fifteen minutes I figured that was a good place to start looking. I switched the phone into...

    Help Gmail delete means delete

    Well after hunting for many missing emails in gmail I have come to the conclusion that pressing delete from the gmail app does not move email to the trash or deleted items. It deletes it permanently unlike other mail systems. I guess that is what the archive button is for.

    Root permissions denied

    This is a great app from the creator of busybox. Cm7 has this built in and I miss it so finding the app is great. Basically it allows you to install apps that snoop permissions they really don't need. Then you can take those permissions away from it with this app. Very cool.

    Does the Bionic hurt your hand?

    Have you noticed that the corners of the battery cover are pretty sharp and dig into your palms? The cover doesn't fit that well and edges are sharp.

    It could've been a world phone.

    I don't get it. It has a SIM slot and an MDM6600. It has the parts to be a world phone. engadget thinks it has UMTS 2100. The FCC disclosure described it too. Yet here we are with no world capability according to Moto and Vzw. Makes no sense. I gotta find a GSM SIM to stick in and see if it asks...

    Anyone have the issue where the lcd backlight stays on after unplugging? The screen is black but illuminated. Good way for the battery to drain. I've only noticed this on 340 froyo.

    Root Preventing GB OTA

    I was doing some hex editing this morning and I think /system/app/updater.apk (aka blurupdater.apk) is what does the OTA on Froyo. Maybe a better way than removing otacerts.zip which kills the battery. I renamed it to updater.bak to see if it will prevent me from receiving the OTA. I could go to...

    Is 4G really going to be worth it?

    Seems the phone an only handle about a 5mbps stream. When I do a speedtest over wifi that's all the phone will do. A laptop on the same connection can do 25mbps. Probably could go faster in N mode but the X falls on its face due to a bad implementation. A wired machine on my connection can do...

    Post Video you have taken with your Droid X

    So here is a video I shot entirely with my Droid X on a 4wheeling vacation. The original footage is better quality than the youtube version but it is quite competent. I usually pull out my five year old Sony HD cam for such events but I decided to give the X a shot. It did pretty well. Color...
