Sort of off topic, but... I'm curious why people seem to be in love with "Circle Widgets". It's nice looking, but to me isn't anything special. I still use Beautiful Widgets. That app continues to be updated and recently had a major overhaul that makes it a lot more customizable (such as separate configuration options for multiple instances of the same widget)

As for the OTA path question... I think common sense would dicate that since Verizon DID push the update out (intended or not) and some people did receive it as such, that installing this JB ROM should be totally safe as far as that goes.

I am loving how much faster and smoother everything is. I'm using the 0G Maxx... so battery life already wasn't a problem, but I'm seeing the improvement there too.

I don't know either. I still like my HTC Sense looking clock from Fancy Widgets. What I would really like to see is a clock that actually looks like HTC's but actually flips. That I would love to have.

Reason one its a key features for other JB builds. It's like a child's ball if one has it a second wants it too. It has more integration than Beautiful Widgets. It's more streamline. After the BW update its too tedious for use. That's why I busted my but to find a way to get it on my phone... Having to extract the apks from y friends phone playing with settings on how to get it working... Then everybody keeps claiming hey I found out this way to get circles. No one does the research that a complete walk through is already put there.

I guess I just want my phone to look as much JB as possible since the OG Razr doesn;t have the circle widget with it...

Minor issue for me is that text messaging via bluetooth and the UConnect system (Dodge/Chrysler) in my car no longer works. Prior to the upgrade I could send text messages through the vehicle's radio and it would read incoming text messages from the phone. I initially had issues with the car seeing the phone's contacts, but a reset of the phone took care of that (phone prompted to allow access). Probably something similar with text messaging but have not found any setting yet.

My Dodge Charger sees my razr Maxx HD with JB on it without issue. It originally had ICS and worked fine there too. No change when that phone was updated to JB.

Trying unsyncing and resyncing your phone you might have a pairing issue, an bluetooth address and permission issue or just one of those phones who got a bum bluetooth radio permission on the JB update...

I miss the Motorola Music player, liked that it showed lyrics. Not sure if the stock google player can do it.

I think it's dope I play games on my phone and modify stuff I can live with the basics. This phone is just a big project to me as is all android phones

Sent from my DROID r4z3r running JB
