Wireless Moot

[tjk629]

have you tried reinstalling the update you are on? I have read on the Moto forums that an FDR has a 98% chance of fixing your problem

I had the problem on 232. When I went to 246 I did a FXZ to 905. The one that wipes data and all that stuff. I did not do an FDR when I went from 246 to 247 since I was only on 246 for like 24ish hours.

I may try it, but since it's still present and I FXZ'd at one point I don't think it'll solve much. Unless I happened to be one of those 2%.

NO! There's still a bug in ICS. Might not be critical for some folks but it is for me. Hopefully I'll get accepted into the soak test (got in before with 902/905) so I can tell moto about it.

The bug is while streaming audio over Bluetooth the phone randomly reboot. It's done it twice to me within 30 mins. Which is worse then it was on 232 or I guess 246 (was only on it a day)

I stream audio over bluetooth all the time and have not encountered that issue, not even once. I've been on ICS for months, primarily on .232 (now on .247 -- I'll test it on this build later today). I stream using Google Music, Pandora, and Stitcher (also used Sirius for awhile). What app(s) are you streaming with when the reboots occur?

Could someone please help me out.

I will admit it I am lazy and don't feel like going through the 400+ pages here to find this, but has anyone jumped from 246 to 247, and could share any changes they noticed between the two?

From what I have read here, the difference with .247 is all under the hood. .247 is basically .246 with an incorporated patch that readies it for transition to JB. Kind of like .905 was to GB.

So, is it safe for us to keep hoping for JB within the next year? I would like to see JB, but Since this phone is now officially end of life...Verizon usually end of lifes a phone once it is a year old, I am just happy we are finally going to see ICS maybe this year, would be a great Christmas present from Google/Motorola.

I want to see how good battery life is on 247 for the standard battery. Ploped it in and DAMN I forgot how light/slim the Bionic was!

I have a three different BT devices that stream audio and calls, and all give me remote controls. Eg. Skip songs, volume, voice search.

Also, can anyone verify if they have unlocked the ability to turn off the LTE signal on the phone like we could in GB, and on a side note been playing around in the Dev Options on the phone, I love them.

Download the app called "phone info" from play.

The only issue I've noticed with .247 is that 1 of my contacts was missing.It showed the name but when I clicked it , contacts FC'd. Really odd since it was the emergency/on-call contact. I just deleted it and used a back up of my contacts and reset the notification to one that would wake the dead (Psychosocial by Slipknot)

Yeah Sarge, I gave you props too.

At this point it is still anyone's guess, but personally I see this as a positive sign that Moto has not yet abandoned us.

Google Music with S9-HDs

Google Music power cycling phone .232

I made a topic last month about it. I first thought it was an app compatibility issue with Run Keeper. Then I thought it was Google Music. The poster in my topic enlightened me that it was a bluetooth issue. As for recreating it I honestly don't know how you would as it's random. Just stream for hours I guess and see what happens.

I do have a theory I want to try out. I think it may happen if the music app is in the foreground and not background. I'm thinking if I put the music app in the background before turning off my display it may not do it.

It's done this to me three times already today.
