    Help Ok Google doesn't pause or stop music

    Hi all, My elderly parents got a Droid Maxx from Verizon a year ago and quickly got into a dispute with them. They stopped paying the bill and their account was closed. I noticed they still had the phone lying around. They are the epitome of non-techies. There really isn't any way for them...

It stopped charging well about 6 months ago. I could not get it to charge on some chargers, but it would on others. I was down...

    Where is all my data going?

    Finally, I gave up my unlimited Verizon plan. The $20 was more than I could bear for only using about 2.2 GB a month, and I needed the unlimited minutes. So now that I gave it up, my data is using is going through the roof. My month ends on March 20 and I'm already at 3.5 GB (my wife at 1.5 GB...

    2 years - not the same battery life

    When I first got my Droid Maxx, the battery lasted almost 2 days. Of course, I used it more so the battery would run down quicker.
