BUGS!!! Which ones have infested yours?

[Dan_Droid]

So the multiple people I have found with the facebook app issue is our carrier correct? All that fixed it was a re-setup of the facebook app

Don't even know what "issue" you are talking about. I have the Facebook app and use it all the time, no problem at all (other than the fact that it uploads pictures ridiculously small...that's a bug).

And when the phone froze up on the homescreen and having to hardboot the phone was the carrier correct? All that fixed it was a reboot

Phones, especially smartphones, freeze from time to time. No big deal. It happens. It's usually due to the phone running out of memory or an unstable application (or several). If it is happening all the time, there's probably something wrong with the physical hardware in your phone, and you should exchange it. If it happened to you once, there's nothing wrong with your phone, and you should get over it.

And tring to "push" the phone to 3G on the identifaction bar by opening the phone browser and also trying manually hitting the wifi on and off. Still didn't activate 3G was the carrier correct? All that fixed it was a reboot

That doesn't even make any sense. But if you were rapidly turning your wifi on and off, I imagine your phone could become confused and this would probably require you to reboot it in order to get it working again. Sounds like user error. Did you bother to even look at the wifi solution I offered you?

Come on Dan, there are issues with the phone and Verizon/Google has admitted it and are going to push a update Dec.11

Come on Smity, of course there are some issues, it's a brand new phone and a new major release of a young operating system. However, none of the issues you describe are issues that are rumored to be part of the Dec 11th OTA update. The way you describe them, your issues are now starting to sound less like carrier problems and more like user error.

1. There are reports that the facebook app will stop working out of the blue and gives you an error of not being able to update. Quick Fix, reset up the account.

Google it

2. You stated all my issues were because of my carrier correct?

3. No, I got to work and unlocked my phone and seen that there was no 3G notification on the top task bar, you know by the signal strength and it was not there. So I tried to open the web browser up and go to google.com, the browser poped up but gave me a network type error message. Then i closed that and switched the WiFi connection on waited for about 30-40 seconds since it couldn't find any wifi connections that I could access, there were some but they were locked out meaning i didnt have passcode. Switched the wifi off waited about another 30-40 seconds still no 3G notification, tried to open the browser again and same error message after a refresh. Rebooted the phone and low and behold 3G popped right up.

NOT A USER ERROR. I am very patient.

and please stop trying to twist me words by only quoting half of what I say and stating the exact same things that I have stated a few post up EXAMPLE:

Come on Dan, there are issues with the phone and Verizon/Google has admitted it and are going to push a update Dec.11, not all issues will be solved and im sure that there will be a more people that will have different issues than what is being patched on Dec.11


Your response:

Come on Smity, of course there are some issues, it's a brand new phone and a new major release of a young operating system. However, none of the issues you describe are issues that are rumored to be part of the Dec 11th OTA update.

?????

And like I stated I AM NOT COMPLAINING!

Example:

I'm not complaining because like we all know this is the first phone with the 2.0 OS and this is the first of its kind from Motorola. Hopefully this Dec.11 patch/fix will help us Droid users out alittle and fix some minor bugs.

I am also not the one that opened this thread up?

[Dan_Droid]

Sorry, I don't have time to argue with people who just want to argue for the sake of arguing. Or people that just want to complain for the sake of complaining. Or people who get mad when other people don't automatically agree with and validate everything they say. Or people who get mad when other people try to offer them solutions.

Good luck getting all your "issues" fixed. Meanwhile, the rest of us will be happily cruising along without you.

The only bug I've seen (so far, anyway) other than the phone is that it has said "Droid" maybe 15 times in a row. This has happened twice so far.

[Smity]

15 times in a row omg ! I dont even think mine ever has said droid since I booted it up from the first time i got it.

I had that but then when I looked into it I had pile of texts and emails that all came at once.

Then everyone wanted to come see my phone at work

I got the Droid the first day it came out (my first smartphone) and the first week was awesome as I experienced no problems. But then I saw how the time on the upper right would stop updating and not be the same as a clock widget I was using (or vice versa). I also began experiencing dialer problems and couldn't dial out but could receive phone calls. After reseting the phone and still having problems, I went to a Verizon store a week ago to have them look at it. Over an hour later after leaving, the time in the upper right again stopped so I went back there and got a new phone. I later realized it probably wasn't the phone but the clock apps (both widgets and digital clocks) I had installed that caused the phone clock to be wrong several times as I think it started when I switched from the 24 Clock widget to something else and reading some reviews after the exchange. However on Saturday I again experienced several problems with the dialer and couldn't dial out (however I could when I installed SuperDial), the time again stopped, and it would lock up as I couldn't even use the Power Control widget and I believe the Market app. But now realizing that these apps can probably cause problems for the phone, I uninstalled the apps I installed Friday night. I was ready to return this phone and go back to my old phone LG VX9400 or get an iphone. But for the past couple of days, I have had no problems and I like the fact there is a keyboard and love the 5MB camera (took some great pictures of the beach erosion here on LI last week). Just hoping and waiting for apps that the iphone has to come onto the Android platform.

All the problems I've had so far I've been able to attribute to various apps that I've installed. Besides those problems everything has been going pretty well.

Posted this on another thread.... Took the my Droid out of my pocket (with about an 80% charge left) and it was completely unresponsive - screen, buttons...nothing worked, screen was black. Thought the battery had died (which I thought was strange cuz I had just checked it about 20 min prior). So I took it home and plugged it into power and noticed that the white indicator light for the usb charger was not turning on - WTF? - so I pulled the battery. Afterwards the phone was fine....

A day later all of my apps weren't launching right. For example, I would try and launch my messages and the phone would launch the Android Market (mind you the the market icon and the message icon are on two seperate panels!) or I would launch the dialer and the phone would launch the browser.

Today the phone decided that my volume "high" setting would be the "low" setting. The "ringer volume" bar is maxed out, the "media volume" is maxed out but in both instances the sound is very low.

I guess that's my list...for now
