Hi all,
I have had my Droid X for about a week now. I was looking forward to the enhanced multimedia experience, big hi-res screen and additional features. I gave up a 2 year old iPhone 3G that has performed pretty well for me in addition to being smaller and more compact.
My issues (some of which I have seen posted):
1) Limited to no connectivity to WiFi. I can't even connect at home, nor can my wife who has the Droid Global. Please don't tell me to go reconfigure my router. If Motorola can't figure this out without me jumping through hoops, they are the ones that have issues, not me.
2) Apps not working properly and very slow. Part of this is contributed by my not being able to connect to WiFi, but I am still not happy with how slow browser is especially at my own house. I am at work and open FoxNews to read- it's stuck on Dec. 9th, the last time I viewed it. It will not refresh/ update.
3) Phone turned off and I had to pull battery twice this morning because it would not turn on. Now occassionally ther Droid red eye comes on like it is doing something to try and fix it but I don't know.
Maybe some of you have some answers for me. I am not an iPhone poser looking to run down the Verizon network and Droids. I was sick and tired of ATT and was willing to try out a new network and phone but so far I am completely disappointed in my experience.
I am planning on stopping at the Verizon store to day and finding out what is going on. I may make them give me a new phone to see if this corrects, but if it doesn't- I may be getting rid of it. The performance of this phone is unacceptable so far. has great features, but if they don't work right- what's the point ?
