Don't forget to make an introduction thread!

I found you while looking for details on adding my own ringtones and video to my new Droid X. Just need the specs. I like the sight so I signed up.

I plan to use my Droid X in my Social Media Management business. It is great in so many ways. What I am not happy with is the pittifully short battery life. Just like my last Motorolla phone.

The tech at the store said to expect eratic battery times for at least the first week. So, I'll be patient. What else can I do...I mean besides getting the Media Dock, an extra usb cable to carry around, and the car kit/charger so I can power up where ever I go.

I've spent most of my career as a radio Production Manager and Television Master Control Operator. I am also an actor and voice over artist.

Hello everyone!! Joey is my name and coffee keeps me sane =)

I'm a proud Motorola Droid owner and a Telecommuications Systems Analyst for the Army Reserve. One piece of my occupational puzzle is managing about 200 Blackberries (BBs). So, since the DoD imposes such STRICT restrictions on BBs, it's REFRESHING to own a Droid and get to play around with it!!

LOVE having XM on my hip. LOVE being able to see when DC's next Metro train is pulling in. And LOVE knowing there's this Droid Community here because Verizon's Support Service is EVER-so-helpful

I found this website solution-hunting for a problem caused by the v2.2 update (nooooooo =). My Sirius-XM app kept audio-looping (you know...it's VERY annoying to hear the same news clip seven straight times while showering!!) Thanks to "evildroid" (Member# 101486), my issue is a thing of the past.

Thanks to the creators of this community and thanks to the constant contributors!! You are all making owning a Droid EVER BETTER!!

(Special thanks to "evildroid" for helping me resolve my issue. Quoted from post #235 here - http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dro...p-here-24.html)

Thanks to Booch_21 (and others) I was able to get it to work perfectly. I enjoyed 2 hours of uninterrupted XM yesterday. Booch_21 already laid out the instructions but I'll post a simplified version anyway.

Here's what I did:


1) Purchase and install easyroot (i'm lazy and easyroot is cheap)
2) Root phone
3) Reboot
4) Purchase and install root explorer
5) Use root explorer to edit /system/build.prop
6) Change the line media.stagefright.enable-player=true
to media.stagefright.enable-player=false
7) Reboot

Hello Everyone,
Excited to be a member of your forum and learn more about my droid I just purchased a few days ago. Never thought there would be a forum for the phone though.

Greetings,
I had a BlackBerry Storm that crashed a lot and I wouldn't buy a ianything. Wasn't too interested in Droid until the X came out and that was the answer to it all. Verison was great in replacing the first X as it had a problem and everythings is good. For an older guy this is fun.

Hello,

I just joined the forum after a few days of looking at it. I got my DroidX the second day they came out. I had a BlackBerry Storm 1 that crashed a lot and was sick of it. The Droid crash too, took it to Verizon and they replace it as a few of them would reboot for no reason. I guess the only complaint the the maps program that I use all the time to find client needs fixing (the maping portion) as it goes crazy going north on 95 in Las Vegas. Just having fun. Love the Droid.

Just saying hi. I'm just one of many Blackberry users to see the infinite advantages and have a DX on the way. Looking forward to squeezing it's potential.

Dear fellow Droids: I'm new to this forum. I found it looking for a desk cradle for my Incredible. I am very happy to be part of this community. Here's to making our 'Droids everything that Open Source can be.

All my best,

I'm new here, but have had my "old" Droid since before last Christmas. Hooked on the thing.
