    Sales Canvassing Android App

    I own a construction/restoration firm, we are looking for a Sales Canvassing App to help with our sales efforts. Here is what we are looking for at a higher level of abstraction. Wondering if there is something similar to this already available or there is a developer out there interested in...

    Android Tablet & DX Working Together?

    I've been looking at purchasing an ereader but when you look at the cost difference, seems to me it makes sense to spend another $100 or so and get a tablet like the Velocity Micro Cruz. I was wanting something with a color touch screen anyway. Was just wondering if there is any synergy...

    Help WTF - How Could They Make This Any Poorer?

    I finally gave up on the 2.3.1.5 upgrade working the bugs out and did a factory reset. Synced with App Brain, backed up various apps (such as touchdown) to the SD, did everything I thought I was supposed to do in order to make the restore work. What a major freaking joke! The only backup to...

    Help DX Not Charging from USB After Update

    Phone won't charge when connected to the computer via the USB cable. It comes up saying it is connecting on the screen but the icon isn't appearing on the computer and it is definitely not charging. It will still charge when connected directly to an outlet. Rather disappointing as is the...

    Make A Call To Do App

    Anyone aware of a app specifically to remind one to make calls and allow you to click on the number to bring up the dialer and make the call? Touchdown Task List won't do this. Got to do (which syncs to Toodledoo) won't do this. This capability was in Blackberry a decade ago. Worked...

    Help Tasker/Locale Battery Drain

    Tasker looks like a great app to me, however, it seems like many of the automated scripts I would utilize are based on location. This means (I'm thinkiing) that I'd have to have the GPS radio running all the time. I heavily use the DX and make it through the day (most of the time) without...

    Help Step by Step Wiping DroidX

    Got a lot of funky, annoying little things going on, I think it may be time to wipe my DX and start over again. No contact data to worry about, I use MS Exchange Server. Got some purchased apps including Touchdown so I definitely want to preserve those with minimal issues in reloading them...

    Is there a way to set up Voice Command ..

    for text and email such that when the text or email window comes up, it is automatically in microphone mode? Seems silly to use voice command to look up a contact and give instructions but then have to manually enter text. I will say I'm quite impressed with the voice to text capabilities and...

    DroidX Task Killer App is in Fact Built In

    It is clear to me now. After heavy use for a couple of hours, the DroidX locks up requiring the user to pull the battery for a hard reset. That absolutely kills on the running apps. Clever design by the Moto software geniuses.

    Best DroidX App Yet

    Help Can you set voice command to come out of the regular speaker?

    Can you set this up to where it comes out of the ear phone instead of the speaker? It actually is one of the better tools on the DroidX except the speaker phone is so feeble it is next to impossible to hear. It would be much better if the responses came out of the regular ear mic.

    Help How do you optimize clicks?

    I'm getting carpal tunnel from using the DroidX. Is there a way to set things up so they just do what it is supposed to do? If you click something that requires a browser, the pop up comes up asking which browser. Even when I've checked the default a dozen times, I still have to make a...

    Help Locked up when switching calls

    My DroidX locked up multiple times today when I was on a call, had a 2nd call come in and attempted to switch over. In a couple of cases where it didn't lock up when switching, it locked up when the called ended. Not sure if this was aTAKEphONE fault or something else. Used the phone heavily...

    Help Why doesn't the damn thing just work?

    Really frustrating. Simple things aren't simple. I had a voice mail, tried forwarding it to myself and someone else. My own droidx said unsupported format. Tried texting it, same crap, unsupported format. So the phone doesn't support it's own format? Visual voice mail requires several...

    Help DroidX Touchscreen Problems?

    Noticed later yesterday the touchscreen on my Dx is sticking and lagging. Notice it most when trying to scroll through the apps. Also noticed it on the aTakePhone screen when trying to dial a number. Kind of disturbing.

    Droid Apps Suck Compared to iPhone

    Have somewhat limited exposure but what I do have on Android Apps is not positive. The Apple Apps store is far superior to what you get with AppBrain and Market. The Android Apps always give a very vague and sketchy description, next to impossible to get details of what it does. I bought...

    Is there a way to set up favorites in launcher pro and customize them? I would like to have a widget, shortcuts or whatever in either a folder or on one of the screens for one touch dialing. Can't figure out how to do that in LP. Also, is there a way to customize these in any of the UI's...

    A Couple of iPhone & Evo Features I Miss

    I used an iPhone for over a year and tried the Evo for about 3 weeks. I've only had the DroidX for a day and a half now but I'm convinced this is the best cell phone I've ever had. I can definitely say I don't miss all the dropped calls I had on the iPhone. I've probably talked on the DroidX...

    Wondering what ring tones I can download that are the loudest OR what I can do to make an existing ring tone louder. I have a combination of not hearing well and often being in a somewhat noisy environment. I don't care about the ring tone being ultra kewl, just want it to be somewhat...
