[Motorola Droid Bionic] AdamNJ77:
I use the Motorola S9-HD Bluetooth Stereo headset and it sounds great as always. It must be a problem with the wiring, but I do find it strange how the noise varies in volume a lot and when audio stops the whine stops within 2-3 seconds too. That makes me wonder if perhaps it is a software problem. Oh well who knows, once I start playing music, I can barely notice it, but for video it is a bit annoying. I may take Motorola up on their offer of returning it on their 1 year warranty if in a month or so they quietly fix the problem in the next batch of Bionics Verizon receives. There are a few people who say they don't have the problem, but I think those people are just in the group of people who can't hear sounds that are that highly pitched (like the mosquito ringtone). Perhaps in their mid 30's or older, or just not the best hearing. Anyway, it's hardly worth me returning them for the problem, and like I said, if it is fixed in the next year at any point, I will return and exchange them on Motorola's warranty :D
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jstrangfeld:
So quick dumb question. I bought my Bionic off contract / retail price, anyone know if the 14 days return vzw has only applies to subsidized phones or to full retail price phones as well? (my phone has this problem as well which is why I am wondering if I have till Thursday or longer to return it).
[Motorola Droid Bionic] marisajoy:
14 day return applies regardless of price paid. Probably the restocking fee too.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] yutzyscott:
The problem lies with the fm receiver. Try using titanium to freeze the FMradioservice 2.3.4. If this does not solve your problem then it is a hardware issue. I have become an avid slacker radio user and this seems to have solved it for me but, I just did it so haven't had time to really test it. Please let me know if this works for you or not. If you are not rooted then there is no solution for you other than to become rooted.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] v1r7u41:
I have this too
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jstrangfeld:
According to a user over on the motorola support forums:

"Freezing FMRadioService does nothing." :(
[Motorola Droid Bionic] seanbond65:
Just tried it. Seems to make no difference. I also tried playing with some settings under Sound>Media Audio Effects>Wired stereo devices, also with no effect.

I also tried putting it on Airplane mode, again no effect.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cstrife999:
Wow I must be the only person not having this problem. Either that or I don't notice it ever...

EDIT: I must be one of the only ones... http://www.engadget.com/2011/09/19/bionic-owners-peeved-by-high-pitched-whine-source-of-the-sound/
[Motorola Droid Bionic] korkwin:
My Bionic does this as well, but if I disable LTE it goes away immediately.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] SciFlyer:
You are not alone - sort of

I can hear a high pitched sound when using cheap headphones. When I use my Sony noise-cancelling headphones, I do not hear it at all. (with noise-cancelling on or off)

Just to be sure it's not an age thing, I had my teenage daughter test it. I didn't tell her what to listen for. I just let her play music for a while. Then I asked her how it sounded. She said, "Great". She only noticed the whine when she switched to cheap headphones - just like me.

There is no whine when I plug into the aux jack in my car.

I do have a huge interference issue when using the Verizon car charger and the aux jack. Other car chargers work fine with the Bionic. I think I have a bad car charger.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Brad003:
I figured out the problem (Well, at least for me). For some reason, my cheap headphones has the static; presented as white noise. I have a second pair of ear buds that are quite expensive (90$) and there was no white noise or hum. I also have a input in my truck stereo for auxiliary music which is the cable that goes directly into my Alpine radio (Not the headphone female connection on the front of some stereos) and there was no hum or static noises heard. I hope this helps...has anyone experienced the same thing that I have?

---------- Post added at 12:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:10 PM ----------

WAIT - I LIED! I assumed that my cheap headsets were the problem and still had static. I am listening now and there is no noises other than the music...I don't have the annoying noise at all! The frozen apps for sure fixed it!!

[Motorola Droid Bionic] seanbond65:
Any chance you could list for us which ones you froze? I've tried freezing the apps suggested on the linked post (and the post he linked to), but still no luck.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Brad003:
Just the suggested ones...I left some unfrozen to meet my needs, but just as that list showed. It made the phone much quicker too. Sorry that I don't have a specific answer. :(
[Motorola Droid Bionic] yutzyscott:
This does not work. When I have it plugged into my truck stereo sometimes I hear fm radio stations. Yesterday it was the Spanish channel. I can only assume that the phone has a built in radio antenna and it is caused by that.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] capndye91:
Hi, sorry guys but yes I am a noob. I was running alien build #4 on my atrix and things were running great, but then I wanted to be able to overclock and the kernal I had originally wouldn't allow it (not sure if alien 4 has a kernal that flashes with it) so I tried to flash faux's 0.1.9 1.3 ghz kernal using CWM from my sd card and.... boom. I think what i have her might be a soft brick only for the sake that it powers on and tries to boot. is says "failed to boot 2 starting RSD mode" and it hangs forever. Also if I hold volume down and power while connected to my pc it "failed to boot 2 starting fastboot protocol support." Please can anyone tell me what I may have done, or if there is a way to fix it? Thanks in advance.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alcapone263:
if you can get into rsd you can flash a sbf file. just make sure that you choose the right sbf!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xploited:
Looks like you can get into fastboot as well. I recommend recovering via fastboot, as it's much much safer than RSD.

Get moto-fastboot from here -

and stock 2.3.4 from here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1163342

Extract everything to C:\moto-fastboot

Get into fastboot, then:

moto-fastboot devices

moto-fastboot flash boot boot.img

moto-fastboot flash system system.img

moto-fastboot -w

moto-fastboot reboot

This should get you back up and running.

It is called Elecont Weather I believe. I for some reason or another liked the clock/weather widget. Did not really care for any of the other widgets. The app itself has soo much info, even earthquakes, radar and moon phase. But I don't like the constant t notifications. Anybody else download this? Did you notice if it sucks your battery or not?

Here is a screen pic of some of the widgets

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Sprintina:
I loaded this on both my tabs (7 & 10.1) and am still playing with it. Have the the "clock" widget on the 10.1. It's an interesting app. I am hoping they will offer more than the 2 weather sources (it seems that intellicast has been offline updating the past day or so forcing me to switch to the other (euro-based) site. Also hoping they offer some more status icons as they seem okay on the 7" but are a bit too big on the 10.1 status bar. Haven't had the tabs out and about off the charger yet to see if they suck battery, but then I usually put them on airplane mode when I carry them around and turn on the net if I need to do something on them requiring net access.

[HTC EVO 3D] Bamba1260:
Sprint could be having network issues in your area, which is why it sent with GV but not the messaging app.

It has happened to me before. I called sprint and they said something along the lines of network issue lol.

I wouldn't worry unless it keeps happening.

I have rooted my GT 10.1 LTE. After I used StarBurst ROM 9/1/11, my tab is brick, I have to restore.

Do you have StarBurst ROM for GT 10.1 LTE?

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AceTrader:
Starburst ROM is for wifi tabs only
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boatsnhoes:
I did the same exact thing. A temporary solution that I found was to install this kernel from CWM. If you are unable to boot in to CWM recovery like I was then the solution is to flash CWM via Odin so that you can install the kernel zip. Once you install that kernel you will get an exclaimation mark on boot and it will take a little longer than usual to get to the boot splash but it will boot. The only problem is that LTE radio does not work with this rom as it was designed for the wi-fi GT-10.1

I hope this helps.

I'm waiting you...
[General Questions and Answers] eraste:
Both seem to have great options. Cant believe HTC didn't make the Vigor 4G LTE compatible. I love both and the options but a lover of sense so ill suffer with 3G.
[General Questions and Answers] eraste:
I may have overlooked something but I dont think the Vigor will be. The Bionic is. :-(
[General Questions and Answers] feralicious:
Why would one want to do this? Seems backwards to me.

As to which phone, if the Vigor has LTE I'll go with that. I'm not sure it has been confirmed one way or another yet. Otherwise I'll be looking at the Bionic or the Samsung Galaxy S II.
[General Questions and Answers] feralicious:
Seems it might have LTE after all but I believe it's still not officially confirmed.
[General Questions and Answers] gbmitchell:
I have a Bionic and I am a long time HTC fan. I think that if the Vigor is 4g and the specs hold true to the rumors, you go with the Vigor.

HTC devices typically run a little smoother in a stock rom and usually have very strong dev communities. Motorola probably has better build quality for the most part but HTC does not make Garbage.

I think the faster clock on the processor and the higher screen res tilt it to the Vigor but if any of those specs turn out different, I might reconsider.

The question is, do you want either of these with the Droid/Nexus Prime rumored to be on the way.
[General Questions and Answers] feralicious:
Appreciate your input.

I'm going to hold out and see what the actual specs and cost are if I can, but my old phone is really on its way out. Damaged charging port and bad battery that barely holds a charge any more... :(
[General Questions and Answers] gbmitchell:
HTC has an event on the 20th. Maybe we will hear something then. I imagine on the Prime will follow shortly after that.
[General Questions and Answers] eraste:
O yea lol ..........
[General Questions and Answers] MartyLK:
I finally got to play with a Bionic the other day. The physical appearance was certainly handsome, but it was thicker than I had expected it would be for the length of time Motorola took to release it. It was almost the same thickness as the slide-out-keyboard equipped Droid 3. When I was done playing with the Bionic, I went over to the Droid 3 and gave it some more time. I decided the D3 is the better of the two. If I was going to have a thick high-end phone, it would have a good reason for being thick...with a slide-out keyboard.
[General Questions and Answers] Mikey450GT:
I have the Charge and took a chance on the Bionic and I'm slightly disappointed. I KNOW Quadrant doesn't mean anything, but if I run my Charge on demand with a clock of up to 1400 Mhz on a single core it can get the same score. Plus I like adw launcher vs the new Moto interface. Something about quickly and easily dropping the 3G vs waiting for Juice Defender Beta to do it is nice and the Super AMOLED PLUS screen is pretty bad a**. I will take the Vigor all day, I agree 100% on the community around HTC and their roms. I will also agree that although it is a rumor, FCC ran the Vigor through with LTE.
[General Questions and Answers] fix-this:
the vigor will be an lte device and ill be buying it.

[General Questions and Answers] gbmitchell:
The biggest thing that I am afraid will be wrong about the specs is the screen. If is the hd resolution it is rumored to be and it is not pentile, I want it. If it is the same as current devices I want it less. Also, if the Prime has ICS and I have to wait until q2 of next year to get it on the Vigor or Bionic, then I may want the Prime much more. Then there is the rumor that Prime will be 4.5" and that may be a deal breaker for me.
[General Questions and Answers] feralicious:
What will that do? Does that let you use your home internet for your phone to lessen your data usage?

Also, what about NFC? Do any of these have that? I haven't seen mention of it.
[General Questions and Answers] gbmitchell:
ICS = Ice Cream Sandwich = Unified Platform

I forgot to mention NFC. Good catch. Not on the Bionic and I have not heard any yays or nays on the Vigor or Prime. However if the Prime is a Nexus device or is based on a Nexus device, I think it is safe to assume that NFC will be built in.
[General Questions and Answers] feralicious:
Oh! I googled ICS and came up with Internet Connection Sharing. :D
[General Questions and Answers] stkiswr:
Specs aside pentile display is enough. I don't understand how a company can make a screen w visible dots, tell people oh that's just pentile matrix and expect people to be happy. That's a terrible reason for a dotted display. I am dotty if it offends some people but I won't / can't pay money for anything that isn't as clear as other screens available. for any reason. Its a disappointment. Especially when superamoled+ is on the way.

Now specs side...there isn't much to compare. Both are nice solid phones but adreno 220 takes the cake. If HTC died in 4 hours I would still buy it and buy the biggest battery i could lol
[General Questions and Answers] gbmitchell:
The pentile display is weird. I could live with it if there were not higher res non pentile displays on the way. It just makes everything look like instead of putting a flat image in place, they put some kind of texturing. It is weird. That and the whole bootloader thing are the only things holding the Bionic back.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattykinsx:
Well it sounds like either the replacement battery is bad, the charger is bad [causing the battery to be bad] or the phone itself has a problem.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hawke591:
Could be the charger. Half the time it registers as a USB charger but its the AC outlet charger and when it does switch over to AC it becomes even more prone to overheating. I know that when the battery overheats it can cause internal damage to the phone if it gets hot enough. Hope it hasn't done that yet.
