I agree google music is your best option

Sent from my One S.
[HTC One S] icecicle04:
yea google music works it's just they had all the other music on there that i didn't want that it adds to my playlist too . . and i figured since we get 25gigs of dropbox might as well do something with it lol but i guess gmusic works
[HTC One S] mardon85:
Not everyone in the world lives in the US or want to use a work around to get googlemusic working :(
[HTC One S] KillaHurtz:
Thanks for the groundbreaking update bro. Unless you can answer the question or provide an alternative, please keep the grumpfish inside the tank, ok ?

What I would suggest is creating an .m3u of all the files you want to shuffle and then opening that in winamp and shuffle them. Let us know how that works out :D
[HTC One S] mmceorange:
Joking aside, will that work with the music in Dropbox through the phone?! In all seriousness I totally want to try that (but I don't have the phone part of the equation quite yet) but knowing what admittedly little I do about the way Dropbox works on Android that doesn't seem like it would be possible...

I have been using Winamp since PC version 1.3 haha
[HTC One S] JazzyRO:
droptun.es

Try http://droptun.es, you can stream all your music from dropbox folders. It's simple, but it works well.

I just notice this setting, is this new?

I am looking to get a new router Friday, but were looking into done at Walmart last night and noticed they started using the 5GHz freq. Pretty cool our phone actually allows to utilize this.

Not new. I've always used mine on 5ghz Wifi N.

If you're getting a new router, make sure it's simultaneous dual band.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
I have a netgear dual band router, the 5 gig band seems to have less ranges than the 2.4.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hayabusa1300cc:
Yes it definitely will be, saw a few advertising it. I'm getting the Linksys E2500 Advanced Simultaneous Dual-Band Wireless-N Router and I will test out both freq
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Compusmurf:
Correct, and less penetrating power. But, it's also not crowded with home phones, rf devices, 1000's of BT and other wifi users, etc.

If you are in range of it, you'll get better overall throughput using 5 over 2.4.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JimSmith94:
I don't see that setting option on my phone. I'm running Calkulin's GB 3.0 ROM. How are you getting to that option and what ROM are you running?

Go into wifi through setting and hit the menu and than advanced

Lately at my home I've been having service issues such as having 3G but can't send messages or take

calls, its really been pissing me off, spirit said that' they are upgrading their towers but is there anything I can do?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] karikian:
Yes you can.

About 3 months ago, I put a complaint I believe was in the FCC website, sprint immediatelly contacted me and kept on bugging me regarding the issue. I think the government agency really gets on their case.

After a month, I got them to give me a new phone, from EVO 3d to the Epic and didnt resolve the issue, they now credited me for $50 since I have absolutely no signal where I work and a promise to work on the issue, so the FCC let go of buggint them, but the issue still there, so now I should and will put another complaint with FCC, for 3g speeds and another one for the lack of signal for voice again!

That's the thing, many people have issues but do not complain with the FCC only with sprint. Once we start complaining with the FCC, they actually start doing something about it.

WWW.FCC.GOV
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] donsh00tmesanta:
airrave?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] karikian:
Not where I work, satellite signals will not reach me. Also, even if I could use it, I wouldn't want people around, neighbors, etc, using my internet signal and disrupting my internet speed. I am in a large office... imagine how many people would connect to the airave... I returned my back to sprint.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffyv2:
all of a sudden here where I live (LA) my 4g keeps disconnecting and won't keep an active connection for long
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] donsh00tmesanta:
NV in progress right?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Febby:
You are will aware that with an airave you can change it so only authorized phone numbers can connect. Also, pretty sure that Sprint isn't responsible for providing excellent coverage inside your office building (Perhaps it is different if you held a business account). Keep in mind that the building structure also comes into play because the frequency might not be able to penetrate the building, which in this case the FFC can't do anything to sprint legally because it already providing the service but the structure reflects/weaken the signal by the time to penetrates the building walls.

The above is just my opinion on Sprint Service, while they are held liable to provide good signal in your home address and nearby area. :P

@Darrien13 I believe they are doing network vision so that would affect your service big time for a while. In my city, there was no service for approximately 3 days while they were upgrading the towers for N.V.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lilotimz:
confirmed network vision in progress in LA and surrounding. area. expect hella good speeds and lte soon mate... ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tt281gt:
Is this the reason why my 4g speeds took a dump for about a week maybe longer now?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] radrian92:
I've noticed the same thing here in placentia/yorbalinda and came up with the same conclusion! I used to get on average 6-10mbps and last week I was averaging 1-3mbps! Hopefully this changes!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] darkfire2024:
Sheesh, here in the valley its a godsend to see 1mbps on 3g.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
That's sad. In riverside I get 2mbps download
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MultiLockOn:
I live in Norco (riverside) and spend a lot of Time in corona (also riverside) and I've never seen my 3g hit 1mb
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kanekz:
Im pretty sure they were talking about being on 4g guys
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Febby:
@Everyone posting Network vision affecting their current 4G wimax.

The 4G has nothing to do with network vision. 4G towers are operated by clearwire. Their might be maintenance being done to the towers, expect 4G speeds on wimax to drop though, since Virgin mobile/Boost mobile will be getting 4G wimax phones.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
This is 3g

This is 4G

See the difference ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tubasteve:
Sprint said last month they are upgrading towers until middle of June.the lady let slip that, "hey 4g is off line there right now" i stated we have never had 4g. I've been noticing allot of towers going up and actions happening near all the cell sites. I'm in temecula. But i informed her i travel around and she stated everything should smooth out mid/late June. This was April 8th. Tech support called several times to verify changes they were making in my town.helped a little.

I tried to all her about lte, she said she was reading an internal note about the area.

Don't care if its fact or fake, just let me make calls and text damn it

It's my phone...any mis takes...sry
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Need internet too. College kids with no internet = riots

Lol jk
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jase33:
Had same issues in Fort Lauderdale. Was horrible! I got the same story of maintenance on towers and 4G was offline. They gave me $50 credit for each line on my account. Told me to call back after May 10th if issues still remain.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] karikian:
When I am 2 feet from a BIG window, in front of a open wide pershing square, I think I do have to have a signal. At least a signal. I have nothing no bars, not connection, nothing. I even tought there was a jammer nearby, but a sprint rep came to check, and said that it does not look like and that I was definatelly in a spot to get a signal.

Would I move to the center of the building, I get a VERY STRONG signal.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Snazarian:
Hes not kidding....soon....as in NOW!...

Im on Calk's EL29, with the FD26 modem. No other mods, tweaks....

Im in Glendale, and usually get 500-600k on 3g...on rare occasions 1Mb on 1 or 2 tests before falling back to 700-800k.

Well, just for fun i decided to run 5 tests, all separated by a few minutes each. I didnt feel like turning on GPS and going outside to have the app connect to LA towers....it just randomly connected to some in colorado..

well....

Im gettin 1.3Mb - 1.6Mb consistently throughout the tests before peaking at 1.7 and ending the test there....im very happy right now :)

[Motorola Droid 3] pm2gonzales:
The link you posted seems to be for 5.6.890 :/ also, is there any substantial difference between this and the leak?
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:
They're named for the build they're meant to replace. Differences are noted in the 2nd post change log.

EDIT**

Well, thanks for this official update, but it too fails for me while flashing the radio image and bricks my phone. I guess I'll have to call up Moto again. :'(
[Motorola Droid 3] aross6:
SaaaaaaaWEET! Thank a bunch Sam!!! Got it dl'd, installed, and now in the process of re-rooting and re-installing Safestrap! You're the BEST!!!
[Motorola Droid 3] matthskim:
I have safestrap with stock rom on the non-safe and cm9 on the safe system. How do I go about flashing this update?
[Motorola Droid 3] droidian1441:
1. Change back to your Non-safe system

2. Go into settings and make sure you are on 5.6.890.XT862.Verizon.en.US

3. Download the update and put it on your external sdcard

4. Power down

5. Hold the Power Button and the Volume down Button

6. You will reach the recovery menu. Use Volume Down to scroll to Recovery, Press Volume Up to Enter Recovery

7. Once at screen with Exclamation Mark in the Triangle and Android Robot, press both volume keys at once.

8. Click "install update from sdcard"

9. Select the 906 update

10. Install!
[Motorola Droid 3] matthskim:
This means that that I do not need to uninstall safestrap, I won't lose root and that I can can switch back to the safe system?

Thanks.
[Motorola Droid 3] droidian1441:
The app itself? No. The safestrap recovery? Yes. You will lose root when you install it.
[Motorola Droid 3] Q9Nap:
The md5 sum for this official version matches the one for the leaked version, but thanks for posting :)
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
You dont recommend sbf'in back to stock before installing the update?

Just a thought..i would probably reccomend it as it would help the install process and avoid any conflicts that would cause a brick..seen it a thousand times..but...

And it would be easier to get to stock recovery by pressing pwr+x

Just food for thought..:D
[Motorola Droid 3] droidian1441:
I do recommend it if your on 890, otherwise no.
[Motorola Droid 3] jellman:
got an e sig verification problem. lil help?

---------- Post added at 06:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:11 AM ----------

nvm got it
[Motorola Droid 3] Butcher98:
I checked for a update on my phone and it was there to download
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Whut, really?
[Motorola Droid 3] Q9Nap:
Yup just pulled down the official build also.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Well my mavrom already has .906, I guess it will never show up..or?
[Motorola Droid 3] Butcher98:
I think you have to be on a stock ROM to be able to get the update.
[Motorola Droid 3] Q9Nap:
If your build.prop identifies your version as 906 it won't update because the updater sees that you're already on that version. I was already on 906 too but I put the 890 build.prop in /system and rebooted and the update showed up.
[Motorola Droid 3] lotzakritters:
Updated

Just checked my phone and what do you know, update.......
[Motorola Droid 3] droidian1441:
Looks like it might be rolling out to the public! :-)

EDIT: I can confirm all DROID 3 devices I have that were not apart of the soak test have received this update over the air. YAY!!
[Motorola Droid 3] bogdan_wrc:
hmm..this sounds interesting. can you upload the 890 build.prop, please?
[Motorola Droid 3] matthskim:
This is to replace 890. Then, why sbf to 890 when you are already on 890?

Thanks.
[Motorola Droid 3] boazal:
There is something for us too?.......(5.2.476.XT860.BellMobility.en.CA)......
[Motorola Droid 3] m4nu4l:
Can anyone enlighten me how shall i install this version to my phone ? i have right now a bootstrap i think, a leaked and rooted 906 update, but i want this official version badly, what steps shall i take to flash the needed rom? Im kinda new to my droid 3, bought it few weeks ago
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
I'm having second thoughts whether I should install this without a SBF being available.

I got into bootloop once by just installing safestrap after bootstrap.. If it happens now im screwed.
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
No
[Motorola Droid 3] dsw361:
Couldn't you just reflash the update through stock recovery if that ever happened?
[Motorola Droid 3] lotzakritters:
Ya, I'm pretty sure that would work
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
If this were true why was everyone so careful because .906 wasn't de-brickable? the leaked update has been there the whole time?
[Motorola Droid 3] dsw361:
That's what I've wondered this whole time too.
[Motorola Droid 3] ratman6161:
Well, a while back I stayed on the stock recovery but flashed the leaked .906 update then rooted with motofail. Then I went wild uninstalling things with Titanium backup and hosed the phone. It was no problem, I just powered off the phone, power on while holding down the x key, selected load update from SD card and re-applied the .906 leak. No problems.

Today, I manually downloaded and flashed the official .906 update using the same method and just installed it over what was there. This seemed to work fine though I don't really notice any difference. I had to re-root and all the verizon ware I had unisntalled downloaded and installed itself on the phone. Still no problem. Just used Titanium backup on it again.

One interesting thing I noted was that all the things I had uninstalled with Titanium backup came back where the things I had not uninstalled but just frozen remained frozen. Now I'm thinking its better to just freeze instead of uninstalling.
[Motorola Droid 3] magicelf:
I'm currently on the stock 890 rooted. I rooted using the original Bootstrap. Will Voodoo Rootkeeper work if I install this update? Thanks!
[Motorola Droid 3] tcrews:
Most were concerned about getting off the official update path since you could not return to the official .890 version if you installed one of the leaks and if the OTA's required the official version to update.
[Motorola Droid 3] droidian1441:
Reflashing an update will not unbrick you. SBF files are almost the only way to unbrick. I actually remember bricking a device and reflashing the update killed it. It failed during the install, screen froze, keys didn't work and I had to send it back.

So reflashing an update? Not recommended.
[Motorola Droid 3] tcrews:
No. Install is by the stock recovery, root will be removed and you'll have to re-root the device with the motofail method.

How you installed root isn't the issue. Root will be gone with the update. It's just as simple to gain root with motofail though, so why even worry?
[Motorola Droid 3] droidian1441:
Voodoo will not work, links to a rooting method can found in the leak threads for 902, 905, and 906.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Guess ill wait for the sbf then. How do these appear anyway?
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:
Well, the OTA became publically available today via the "About Phone" > "System Updates" submenu, so I decided to return to 5.6.890 and download the OTA hoping it would work where the leak didn't. The OTA bricked me and I'm now on the phone with Moto support. I expected this though, because the phone has been unable to flash the 906 leak, but now that it's an OTA, Moto might actually help me out instead of saying "leaks are bad".
[Motorola Droid 3] droidian1441:
We know. Man just call Verizon and send that sucker back!
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:
On a better note, I was able to RSD Lite back to 5.6.890. I'm going to walk it into VZW with the OTA downloaded then brick it in front of them. Mostly, I wanted to get up and running again to back up my internal SD.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
I don't see how it should fail now that you SBFed it back to .890
[Motorola Droid 3] SolShade:
Are the camera improvements noticeable or does it still crash out ever couple of pictures taken?
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:
I SBF'd

before

I tried applying the update...
[Motorola Droid 3] nemiroG1:
..and just an FYI, you can use the .890 SBF to recover, if something goes wrong. However, there are .906 files that will stay behind, and .890 will not overwrite. This in itself is not an issue, but just something to be aware of. I have screwed things up a number of times, and was always able to get .890 back on (like I said, partially), and recover the phone. I would then reflash the .906 update, root, and go on my merry way.

The point is, there is seemingly nothing to worry about.
[Motorola Droid 3] spunker88:
Checked today and it was available for download. Unfroze my bloatware and installed it. OTA Rootkeeper appears ineffective for this update as I still lost root. Luckily Motofail works well.

The update brought some new bloatware that can be frozen without impact: Google Play Movies, Google Plus and Emergency Alerts.
[Motorola Droid 3] droidian1441:
I don't see how you guys are getting back to 890... 906 formats everything almost and RSD can't flash the 890 cdt.bin and other things.

At most you have the system restored, everything else is 906.
[Motorola Droid 3] Pokelover980:
Just you wait, Verizon has this magic way of making things work when you show it to them, and your phone will install the update flawlessly when you go to see them. However, as soon as you leave the store, the phone will blow into pieces and, despite the fact that you will probably be seriously injured, Verizon will blame it on you and make you not only pay for a new phone, but for all your medical bills from the injuries incurred from having a phone explode upon your body. Motorola will then proceed to say that this is why unlocking bootloaders is dangerous, and will retract their promise to unlock bootloaders. Chaos will ensue in the world of Android, and Motorola will emerge victorious because they will activate a certain component that they secretly installed in all their phones that causes the user to become a part of the almighty Legion of Moto. Google will then finally take over the world, and everyone will accept their new Android overlords.

Damn, I really got off topic there. Nothing to see here people, move along...
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:
In response to your mild insanity (which I found hilarious)... I went to VZW and they called support, I talked to them, they called me later at home and offered me a new 2 yr contract now, but not looking to shell out $250 (cost + taxes/fees) for a Rezound, they're mailing me yet another D3. Hopefully I'll get 906 this way!
[Motorola Droid 3] MerCiLeSS28:
I got the OTA update of this and it unrooted my phone! Furious! UGH
[Motorola Droid 3] lotzakritters:
Just use Motofail for the D4. Easy fix
[Motorola Droid 3] bogdan_wrc:
ok. anybody from EUROPE is getting the OTA?

Doubleyoupee, a few months ago, i updated the leaked 906. played a little bit...with ICS...and somehow i bricked. in fact i bootlooped into Moto Logo.

and this is what i did:

[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Ye, well.. I've decided to wait for the SBF. I got the 906 system files anyway from mavrom 4.0. Not sure how much the kernel/baseband will make a difference..
[Motorola Droid 3] y0himba:
Do I need this update? I am a bit confused on version numbers.
[Motorola Droid 3] bogdan_wrc:
yeah. me too. because after i've installed the leaked 906, i did a wipe from CWM in order to install MAV4.0, and guess what :) i was back to 905 (which i had BEFORE the 906 leaked)...

It looks to me like an sbf/fxz or whatever they're called these days. 448 MB in size, filename is VRZ_XT862_5.5.1_84_D3G-66_M2-10_1FF_01.xml.zip. Though I don't want to be the first one to try it out.

But my fastboot files (.890) are 900mb together?
[Motorola Droid 3] Senate9690:
Nope you have the latest. 5.7.906

---------- Post added at 01:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:32 PM ----------

I guess its because of compression.

unzipped is around ~950 for me when compressed its ~450

Looks like they pulled that latest one anyhow.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
You're saying a .906 SBF might arrive soon?
