    What's the best way to do a clean wipe and restore?

    I've had my Droid X since release. I just did the latest OTA update from Verizon. The phone seems to be running slower than it did brand new. I'd like to reset it back to factory specs then restore my apps. What's the best way to accomplish this?

    Help GPS running non stop after Froyo update

    Lately I've noticed the GPS icon at the top of the screen even when I'm not in a GPS app. It's definitely affecting my battery life. I've rebooted the phone a few times. I used Google Maps last night, but closed it before I went to bed. This morning my battery was really low and the GPS icon...

    Help Launcher Pro - Is there an equivalent to the "Contact Quick Tasks" widget?

    I switched to Launcher Pro and I'm loving it so far. However, one of my favorite Motorola widgets was Contact Quick Tasks. It doesn't work since Launcher Pro doesn't support sizable widgets. Are there any widgets similar to Contact Quick Tasks?

    Accessories [PIC] Ghost Armor full body shield

    I'm definitely not going to apply all of these pieces. In fact, I may just apply the screen protector. I ordered this before I had my Droid X and I really like the texture of the phone. Click the thumbnail for a high resolution view.

    Network Extender - does the phone show added bars when not in a call?

    I just bought a Verizon Network Extender. When I dial #48 it says I'm within Network Extender range. When I make a call my signal bars jump from 0-1 to 4-5. When I end the call it's back down to 0-1. Is this right? I was hoping the extender would help with my battery life as it wouldn't be...

    Accessories I recommend this car charger

    The Scosche USB12V2. It has two 1A (1000mA) USB ports. Most car chargers are 500-600mA which means the phone is barely charging if you are using it for GPS, etc. Since it has standard USB ports, you can charge a plethora of devices. $9.56 shipped from Amazon if you have Amazon Prime...

    Is it an OMAP 3630 or 3640?

    On the Motodev site it says 3630 (link). On the TI OMAP Wiki it says the 3630 is 720MHz and the 3640 is 1GHz (link). As we know the Droid X is advertised at 1GHz. So what is the deal? Is it actually a 3640 or an overclocked 3630? :confused:

    Accessories HDMI/Charging Dock - will it be hard to use or inconvenient?

    The dock will plug into the phone's Micro USB and Micro HDMI ports. These are pretty small, and located near the corner of the phone. It seems like docking the Droid X will be a two-hand operation - both attaching and detaching. I'm worried it may be more of a chore than a convenience. I...

    2D and 3D Benchmarks

    Hopefully soon we'll see 2D and 3D benchmarks from the Droid X. What apps are best for benchmarking? In the past I've used fps2d for 2D and Gears for Android for 3D.

    Accessories Charging dock WITHOUT hdmi

    I know Best Buy will soon be selling a charging dock which also has a mini HDMI connector. Not only do I not need HDMI out, it seems like it may be more difficult to dock the phone with this additional plug. Has there been any talk of a dock that only charges? Thanks.
