Thanks, I had not noticed that area in the settings before. Recalibrating it in the cover has helped a lot.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trevd:
I pretty much had this since day 1......

The current state is ; it doesn't work at all then all of a sudden It will pop back into life and then pretty much go "mental" as already described, I also found it reacts poorly to minor temperature variations, i.e going from outside to inside and general day to day travelling. Recalibrating used to "help" but now has no effect.

From watching the debug logs part of me thinks it's a bit of both, hardware and software ( just a hunch ) I noticed the driver fail to get a "ping" response from the hardware a couple of times.

I've pratically given up on it myself and plugged a keyboard and mouse in via a hub on the full size usb...... The hub has now stopped working for some reason :confused: , I'm now on a OTG Keyboard with a Virtual Mouse Driver using the numeric keypad and some adb input trickery :) ,

I've got another touch screen/digitizer to plug in, just not got round to putting it in yet and a little part of me is starting to enjoy finding more elaborate ways of interacting with the device... :laugh:

Does anyone know who the OEM of the digitizer Unit is? My previous investigation led me to china but information seems to be thin on the ground with this one

Same problem and even managed a RMA from ARCHOS. Thing is your OC edition fixed it for me.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] blueizee:
So im taking a trip to Verizon tomorrow and really thinking about switching to the S III .....i know it does ship out till the 11 of july but i can wait less than 2 weeks, who cares, i already waited 2 months or so for ICS and thats only cause i did it myself lol...like i said in a earlier post, i see nothing wrong with it but still considering trying out the Galaxy. Only problem i would have with that is that battery doesnt even compare to the MAXX obviously...but was wondering if anyone could list some of the Pros & Cons of each for me to make a better decision...please and thank you!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] stupidchicken03:
Ive got one on preorder already.

Ill give it a shot and determine which phone i like better, then sell the lesser of the two.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MarkyG82:
From all the reviews and the little I've played with it, the gs3 is the better device. On the other hand, the maxx is still a good phone and you have a huge battery. I'd stick with the maxx for now. But thats me. I've only had my RAZR a few weeks so still have that new toy feel ;)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] donebrasko:
I can not go back to any phone that had a battery less than the maxx. I don't care how good the phone is. What's the point of a good phone when its dead in 6 hours. I am a HEAVY phone user and the maxx is barely lasting all day and that's great for me. I ordered a sgs3 but just to lock in my unlimited data.I'm selling it and saving the money for the razr hd if it lives up to the hype. My opinion is keep your maxx if you are a heavy user. If you can last all day on a standard battery then try the sgs3.you can always trade or sell it if you don't like it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] da_truth540:
I agree 100%, an old Windows Mobile 5.0 phone is far better than a dead GSIII or any other phone for that matter. I'll never even think about buying another smartphone unless it has equal or better battery life in the real world. I don't care what OS it runs, what size screen it has, or how fast it is.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Tieskuh123:
You say you don't care about it's speed, but why do you even buy a smartphone if you don't care. Yes I understand that a smartphone has more features and functions then a dumb phone but how is it to use those features on a slow phone.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] BakaPhoenix:
Well it not that the razr is slow xD

It's only slower that the new generation smartphone, but if you are not and hardcore gamer (on a phone XD) a dual core is fast enought the let you casual game, and all the other thing that a smartphone can do
[Motorola Droid RAZR] da_truth540:
You took the words right off my fingertips! I do care about speed but usability is my #1 priority. My RAZR MAXX has enough power to do anything I need/want to do, (check my work schedule, emails, take pictures, play music & movies, navigation) much like any other smartphone on the market today, but it can do it without me having to worry about it dying after 4 hours. I'll wait .3 secs longer for a webpage to load in exchange for peace of mind anyday. Call me crazy :confused:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ryanf:
This is the stupidest conversation I have ever heard, the Maxx battery is good.... however, the sgs3 has a 2100mah battery and is no slouch. That is bigger than most extended batteries and has a larger screen, and a dual core snap dragon processor clocked to 1.5 ghz, and has better camera with 0 shutter lag, and has a 1.9Mp camera on front with HD 1080 on rear and 720p with ffc. etc.etc. there are so many reasons to switch, the battery will last all day anyway, OH AND.... it is a removable battery so... there will be an extended battery for it as well and the MAXX will look silly with it battery life. But it is all a matter of opinion. and as for me.... mine is on order and will be here around the 11th.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] WizeGuyDezignz:
Let me know how the build quality is, the radios and how often you lose data connection when you get it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ryanf:
well, its samsung, so the build quality is better than moto. the radios can be changed but have had good luck with the samsungs radio in the past and same with data connection. but would be glad to report back. again I can't wait to get mine. :cool:

Oh, and to the OP... I recommend the SGS3
[Motorola Droid RAZR] fiktion:
I had a Droid Charge, and the build quality was horrible. Dropped data frequently, and some calls wouldn't even come through. Some people's luck with different phones are better than others. This whole "my phone is better than yours," is just a meaningless **** measuring contest.

Sent from my DROID RAZR
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Hindle1225:
I agree that Motorola build quality is far superior to Samsung. Both aesthetically and operational wise. I had an original galaxy s, sidekick and charge. Told myself i was done with Samsung after the sidekick, but... I switched to Verizon and got the charge for free. The all suffer the same issues... Slow GPS lock on, plastic materials and a checkerboard browser background. They have good screen and good hardware but the materials are garbage and so is the rfs file system they use.

Thus Maxx does everything right and is built with good heavy materials.

I've had a few HTC phones and they are also built much better than Samsung.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Elsydeon:
Personally I'm not impressed by Samsung's build quality. They have the most impressive hardware specs in the industry but have some of the absolute worst build qualities in the entire phone industry, they certainly do not feel like a $5-800 phone should. Would it really kill them to put SOME metal on the phone?? Motorola is one of the few manufacturers that uses some form of metal in their phone's body, along with HTC and Apple. I find these 3 companies make the best built phones...everybody else uses way too much plastic for such an expensive device.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] fiktion:
Yeah. The GPS was one other thing. It would sometimes take up to 5 minutes for a lock on a clear day in the middle of a field. My RAZR can get a lock almost instantly in a building.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] chrisjm00:
Not entirely sure where the guy who replied sees that 2100 mah is bigger than most extended batteries..it isn't. That is the same size battery that the Nexus extended was, and much smaller than any extended battery I have purchased for prior phones. The thunderbolt had a 2700 mah battery, and the bionic had a 2750 mah battery. Comparable screen, same radios (more or less), and a dual core processor that is running even faster than the Nexus. I had trouble getting 10 hours out of my Nexus with the 2100 in there, I don't see how the S3 will do any better.

I can see it already, all the razr and razr maxx customers that jumped ship for the S3 will be looking for ways to screw verizon into giving them a razr HD when it hits. Just like people have done for every new phone that has been released. Suddenly a ton of unexplained issues keep coming up that a CLN won't fix, and after 7 of them they get a razr HD.

I wouldn't trade my maxx for anything, until the razr hd comes out, but I already have 700 set aside for that. :D
[Motorola Droid RAZR] abowlofsoda:
What's the latest on unlimited data. I just upgraded to the maxx from Samsung fascinate and I was already on unlimited. Do I need to do more to keep unlimited?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] chrisjm00:
When did you upgrade? If it was before the 28th you are fine.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] johnnyp500:
There is always going to be a better phone around the corner but I will be holding on to this one for a while. I can't even think about going to a phone that I have to charge during the day.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ryanf:
Well, it worked, all the focus was on the battery life, and with the s3... that is upgradable. Or atleast will be. If it is indeed a problem. I dont have a problem with the maxx, just making sure the op makes the right decision. I at least got the conversation off of just the freaking battery. If its build you dont like, fine. If it the fact that it doesnt have any metal, fine. But think about the things you cant readily change. I had a droid eris to start with... a long time ago, i hated the phone because it wouldnt stay charged. The first phone i ever bought an extended battery for. The best thing i ever did for that phone till i got kaos on it. Any way. I personally would never buy a phone that i couldn't remove the battery on. Again personal opinion. I really wanted the galaxy nexus but didnt get because of the non removable battery and no expandable memory. We all make decisions for a reason. Just be sure its for the right ones.

Also, i am sorry if i pissed anyone off. I just wanted to make a point.
[General Accessories] palswim:
I have a quest of sorts that I have been undertaking for a few months now. I want to find a USB hub that will charge many (i.e. 4 to 7) devices at once.

Originally, I though I had solved my quest with the acquisition of a simple powered USB hub. I could charge my many devices at one time, or so I thought. The devices charged somewhat slowly, but I didn't really mind, since I mostly used the hub for overnight charging.

But recently, I obtained an original Motorola Droid device, and found that it refused to charge if I simply connected it to my hub. Strangely, on another hub (which I had connected to a host computer), it would charge, but on the standalone hub (i.e. no host computer), it would not. So, I began to research (and found two helpful discussions on why and if such a thing exists).

After some research, I realized that my hub was probably not providing 500mA of 5V charge to any of my devices. It took the Droid refusing the paltry 100mA current for me to understand this. The devices that had accepted charge could just charge on 100mA of current, and now it makes sense why they seemed to charge more slowly.

It seems that all of the USB hubs I have or had tried don't have the proper controlling logic to "authorize" a device to draw more than 100mA. So, my quest has taken a new wrinkle to become: find a USB hub that will charge many devices at 500mA without having to connect to a host device.

Has anyone found any of these?
[General Accessories] blober54:
not sure if this would be what you would want but I found a 4 port charger a month ago and love it!

Its a scosche Model # QUSBH

Supplies 2a over 4 ports so 500mah to each one
[General Accessories] palswim:
All of my USB four-port hubs rate their power supplies as 5V @ 2A, but then only supply the 500mA when a host device (computer) authorizes the connection (so they never give more than the 100mA base current without a host).

Thanks for the suggestion, though!
[General Accessories] Alexnoj:
I'm not recommended scosche product doue to I had scosche USB charger and it exploded when I charger my Iaudio I7.
[General Accessories] willowave:
I'm wondering if you ever found a solution to your problem? I'm looking for a standalone charging station and it's quite a bit harder than I thought. Feel free to PM me if you found something or post here.
[General Accessories] palswim:
I still haven't found this. I've been running a computer which connects to the USB hub more often as of late, but I am still searching for a solution.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harsharockzzz:
The phone is stuck at HTC logo.. and gets switched off.. And I also can't enter Bootloader.. ( is this what is called many say BRICKED ?? :o ) Please help me out guys.. I was flashing ARHD 7.0.3 and it's S-OFF

Thanks in advance..!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ben hogin:
Take out the battery then hold down power and volume down should boot into recovery.

No luck mate done that many times.. If I hold the UP Volume button.. the phone vibrates for 3-4 times and the orange LED flashes... No luck with DOWN Volume button with power :( Just phone switches off..
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teichopsia:
Hold volume down button and while holding it down then press the power button. Phone must be off for that to work.

Edit: Grant barker, you deserve a thanks just for taking your time to write all of that :o

Sent from a dream.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grant Barker:
I agree with ben hogin and Teichopsia.

1. Make sure the battery is charged enough.

2. Take the battery out and put it back in. This resets something. (Make sure the battery cover is secure too.)

3. Hold down the volume down key and then press the power key (while still holding down the volume down key).

4. (I usually do this with the phone usb disconnected. Not sure if it makes a difference.)

I'd also take out the SD Card just to eliminate some contact issue or something with that. When I'm desperate I try anything..
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harsharockzzz:
I did all those and I just went to the mobile store where I always buy phones ( kinda close ) so he said he has to do this ztag..
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glevitan:
It´s jtag...anyway, to be bricked means that u can´t even turn the phone on. The question is how did u get to that state? have u installed anything or was just stock?

If you tried flashing something then the file could have been corrupted or maybe was not for your phone. That won´t brick your phone unless u flash a bootloader (included in RUU's) that is not for your device.

If you were stock, then the most common issue is a messed volume rocker, but could be something else related to hardware. :good:

use other software if u cant do it with vol- +power. there are apps for android that can do it and also apps for windows that can do it. for windows for example its mobilego one of these apps.

My wifes phone constantly shuts off running on battery power. If it is plugged in, it is fine. The battery will show 90% and it still dies. I have tested this battery in other vibrants and it's fine. I'm gonna try calibration but, this doesn't exactly seem like just a calibration issue to me. Any other suggestions? Thanks
[Vibrant General] genlop89:
for some reason i had the same issue on the previous vibrant i had.. when i flashed ics passion it was doing the same thing i though it wouldve been a software issue but i figured out that SetCPU was in fact cause the random reboot same way like yours plugged in perfectly fine all of a sudden the phone would shut down idk i hope i helped
[Vibrant General] iTz KeeFy:
maybe try cleaning the area where the battery connects on the backside of the phone. Could be a connection issue caused by dirt or something. Use a very small amount of isopropyl alcohol on a Q-tip.
[Vibrant General] foltz61:
Thanks everyone. I was using ICS Passion with no overclocking. I switched to the CM9 nightly and it hasn't happened since. It's still weird because the phone was on Passion for months. I even nandroided back to a fresh Passion install and it still happened.

Is anyone else getting a problem with custom lockscreen icons reverting to defaults after a reboot?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] exenocap:
I can speak personally that I had no issues with the lockscreen buttons. If your problem persists I'd recommend the classic solution of going into recovery, wipe dalvik, wipe cache, wipe data and flash the latest AOKP rom with the latest gapps. Then try see if your problem is solved.

Cheers
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tocirahl:
Yeah, I've figured it out, thanks, it was because I was wiping my Dalvik cache, which apparently clears out the lockscreen icons.
