Starting with the last update earlier this week, I have been having a hell of a time with this stupid phone. The biggest problem is I will have good (3-4 bars) signal and 3G, and when I attempt to make a call, 3G disappears and the bars disappear. Instantly. When that happens it just sits at the "Dialing" screen. As soon as I end the call all my bars and 3G will come back. I've tried turning the phone on and off and nothing helps. This is ridiculously frustrating.

It has gotten the worst today. I can no longer receive calls either. I have been able to make only three calls today and the one call I did receive, as soon as I answered, it cut the call off.

:welcome: to the forum! 3G turning off while on a call is normal. Not being able to receive/make calls is not. Lots of ppl are having problems with the OTA update and Verizon is doing a great job working with them. Take your droid in to Verizon and they'll either flash the update right there or give you a new droid (most likely the droid2). Good luck! :D

Thanks for the advice. I took it in and they just said to do a hard reset. Did that and so far it's been fine.

Thanks again.

Resentful

:icon_evil:I'm going back to blackberry.................. Anyone wanna buy a Droid X? i have had this phone for less than a month & for two weeks it would only vibrate when I received calls. I could still play mp3's & ringtones. After doing a master reset & updating, the phone was back to normal (somewhat).... Now when I attempt to make a call, it just sits on the placing call screen, I let it sit for two minutes, no changes, it said connected but none of the attempts connected to my contacts...... Here we go again, Master Reset........ Resolved! I'm sick of this, I'm going to reactivate my curve......... Anyone wanna buy a Droid X drop me an offer.:icon_evil:
