    Android OS eating battery after 4.1.2 update?

    I've had the 4.1.2 update on my Maxx HD now for a few days and I've noticed that Android OS is responsible for 10 to 15% of my battery usage. This was not the case pre-update. Anyone else seeing this? My overall battery life has definitely gone down. I know I don't have any rogue apps because I...

    Random screen sensitivity issue on Maxx HD after JB upgrade

    Please see the following two links. I'm having this issue on my Maxx HD after upgrading to JB and it's driving me nuts. The screen sensitivity mainly occurs after I hit the Recent Apps soft key and then select a running app. This occurs at totally random intervals and is clearly a software...

    Cannot view my profile on Facebook app or website

    I've encountered an odd issue on Facebook recently. I'm no longer able to view my own profile page. All the other pages on Facebook and all the other functions work fine. If I use the Facebook app and try clicking on my profile, "Connection lost" pops up and and the page doesn't load. If I try...

    Is anyone else having issues getting the recent updates for Angry Birds, Jet Car Stunts Lite, Air Attack HD and World Newspapers to install? They download just fine from the Market but then the installation fails and says "Reason Unknown-18". I have tried downloading via 3G as well as wifi, did...

    Help Launcher Pro suddenly blowing up after 2.2 update

    Has anyone else been experiencing Launcher Pro force-closes and homescreen freezes after their 2.2 update? Everything was working perfectly for me for a couple of hours and now it's all gone down the drain. I've done restarts and two battery pulls. I would get to the homescreen and then it...

    Help Launcher Pro issue with notifications

    For those using Launcher Pro on your X, here's my problem. Maybe others have it too. I added my Gmail and Text Messages shortcuts to my dock and check-marked the options to have the number of unread emails and messages show up. However, those numbers are not showing up on the icons whenever I...

    Awesome battery life on Day 5

    It's Day 5 since I bought my new X. For the last four days, I've had to charge the phone twice during the daytime with moderate use (I'd get 6 to 7 hours or less before hitting 15%). Today seems to be a turning point, and maybe the battery is showing it's true potential after 10 or so charges...

    Help Changing picture source for contacts

    I just got my new X and have hopefully an easy question. I sync'd up my Gmail contacts but when I set up my Facebook account, it added all my Facebook contacts and made my contact pictures in my contact list the ones from Facebook. I want the contact pictures that I have saved in my Gmail...

    Question on transferring contacts...

    I'm currently a Blackberry 8330 user and will be upgrading to either the Droid X or Droid 2 later this Summer. It will be my first Android phone and I'm looking forward to it! I have one simple question about this transition. I already have a Google account and have all my contacts saved...

    So the Verizon salesman told me to wait for the iPhone...

    I was at the Verizon store yesterday checking out the Droid Incredible for the first time. I'm a current Curve 8330 user and my NE2 upgrade isn't until July, but I wanted to at least get an early look at the DI because it will likely be my next phone. I was super impressed with the...

    For those on ACII plan wanting to move up your NE2 date...

    I'm a current BB Curve 8330 user and new to the Droid phones. The Incredible looks way too good to ignore. My NE2 date wasn't due until 12/27/10. I definitely couldn't wait that long to ditch my BB and upgrade to the Incredible, so I called Verizon to discuss options, as I don't want to shell...

    New member - Probably Blackberry convert!

    Hi all, I just joined your forums. I'm a current Blackberry Curve user and have heard nothing but great things about Droids in general. I'm really leaning towards ditching my BB for a new Droid Incredible at Verizon coming out later this month. The problem is that my NE2 isn't due until...
