No, I actually upgraded but it was before all this crap started. The $30 upgrade charge was coming up so I jumped in prior to that. I bought a refurbished Bionic for $20 off the VZN site.

Well, Big Red traded my Bionic for a RazrMaxx... They couldn't fix an issue with me getting 30+ texts sent to my phone, from 1 message...

Got my bionic yesterday and im mostly pleased with it. Best thing was that it was "FREE"...if you consider $30 dollar upgrade fee free.

I had the droid incredible for the past 2 years so this phone from my relative experience is well incredible.

A few little things annoy me but nothing major. Like for instance when im in landscape mode in the browser, the screen doesnt automatically resize the text to make it all fit. Its annoying when i zoom in and have to scroll back and forth horizontally to read ****. Unless there is a way to change this...im not sure.

Screw the stock browser. I love opera mobile personally, way better performance. Check it out.

Most likely if any upgrade is available, it will upgrade when you activate it. And no it doesn't go against your data plan.. :)

I downloaded the dolphin hd browser and like it a lot better than the stock browser. Ill try the opera browser next.

Boat Browser is pretty good too, but I find I'm using the stock more than any other browser.

Well i came home from work and my Bionic was setting on the table in a box....very nice box i might add...slipped the sims card in and battery in and now its on charge, shows to be 50% right now so what about 2 hours of charging or so before i turn it on and activate?

Congrats on your new phone! You don't necessarily have to wait for it to fully charge, you can activate it now. :)

Yeah. I activated mine straight out of that sexy box :) I charged after i played for an hour or so.

Now that you mention it, mine wouldn't auto activate either, truthfully the only anxious moment ever with this phone. Called 611, gave them the sim #, and they manually activated the LTE for me.

Got my otterbox today for my Bionic, just wish they had colors to chose from instead of all black....my son's iphone otter box is yellow and black...just would be nice to have different colors though for the Droids.
