    Google Maps Navigation - no longer announces upcoming turns in advance??

    Hi folks, Today I noticed on both my HTC Droid Incredible 2 and my friend's HTC Rezound when using Navigation an alarming change in behavior that didn't used to be the case. It seems that when driving on the streets of Los Angeles, Navigation no longer announces, say, 0.3 miles in advance...

    Root Custom kernel WITHOUT SetCPU?

    So I finally rooted my droid, installed BB 0.4 and from what I understand it comes with an 800 MHz kernel. Fair enough but lets say I want 1 GHz. I'm already noticing that I get slightly less battery life with this than with stock 2.1, so would the "low voltage" or "ultra low voltage" Chevy...

    Who here is having GREAT signal strength and call quality?

    With all the doom and gloom threads around here it makes one feel that the phone is a complete dud and no one is getting good signal strength. "If you hold the phone wrong your dBm signal strength drops by 20!" "The battery doesn't last through the day!" etc. etc. I know usually it's a "vocal...

    So I've been reading a bunch of posts around here and most would agree that the signal bars fluctuate like crazy on this phone and don't really represent the signal strength or the phone's ability to make a call at all. That being said, there are also some people who have reported the phone...

    I'm seeing both of these names floating around and I'm wondering, which is the actual name for it? BGR posted this image: But Engadget posted this image: Is one of these photoshopped or did VZW change the image from one to the other at some point? Some clarification would be appreciated :D...
