Yes I do for the time being. I'm not planning on update to any more Moto devices personally but I've been using Onavo data monitor for awhile and it's a great tool to see how much data you are actually using (versus the VZW website) and if I have to I'll be o.k. if and when forced to change.
[Motorola Droid X2] :
You can keep your unlimited data and not have to sign a new contract if you just pay full price for your next phone. That's what I'm doing.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
The price of a new phone is like half my rent. lol. I could never pay full price for a phone.
[Motorola Droid X2] twitish:
Agreed. I make around 9 at my job working around 35 hours a week. After rent, car insurance, gas, food, and other college expenses I don't have that kind of money. Once my upgrade is due I'm going to lose my unlimited simply because I'm a poor college kid. Lol.
[Motorola Droid X2] s.morgan0310:
Don't renew the contract or upgrade the phone...let it roll over to prepaid and you will keep you unlimited data like me. If your x2 tears up find another 3g smartphone to buy online.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
And this is the reason why I still have a desktop computer from 2003 running Windows XP. Hell, I only got the Droid X2 because it was free for me. lol
[Motorola Droid X2] RyanThaDude:
I must be one of the lucky ones that upgraded AND kept my unlimited data.
[Motorola Droid X2] coolpoete:
When did you upgrade? I read a few comments and blogs where ppl were upgrading to the Samsung gs3 when it first came out and being able to keep unlimited data. Not sure that is still the case.

Ebay has this thing called BillMeLater

It it's the only time I'll ever buy something on Ebay with Paypal anymore. You get six months to pay what you owe, add long as you pay it off by then, and don't miss a payment, you won't get charged interest.

Or find another way to make payments. It's the only way i was able to get my Gnexus. Found someone who was willing to let me split the payments :D

---------- Post added at 05:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:23 PM ----------

Also, don't buy the phone FROM VZW art retail, you can always find a brand new in box sealed for cheaper elsewhere, like negri, Amazon, etc... ;)
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
I keep seeing that when I buy stuff but never actually looked into it. Maybe I will consider going that route one day. Thanks for the tip.

EDIT: So pricing on ebay, a brand new nexus for 400 would be 66 bucks a month for 6 months. Thats actually doable.

Just wait until the iPhone 5 and the new nexus phones drop to buy. The price should go down quite a bit
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
Only thing is you gotta get approved for it lol

apparently they didn't like my credit score, even tho vzw trusted me and i only had a deposit of 75$ ...i don't blame Bill me later for not approving me tho lol, i have a couple outstanding debts i haven't even tried to pay down lmao

---------- Post added at 10:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 PM ----------

Well if you doing that, you might as well use the bill me later to get the new nexus right? Might bump ya up an extra forty a month but would be damn worth it for sure to have a brand new nexus device when it first comes out. Being able to be around when development n begins and grow with a device is the BEST part imho. That's why I'm glad i got x2 when i did, bsr was just discovered, pre rooted gb dropped from p3droid etc....

Being there from beginning of a device allows you to look like you know more than you do (kinda like me lmao) cuz you get to see everything from beginning and see all the fixes before others that come in late. They end up thinking you are a friggin genius lol

[HTC Rezound] gandroid2:
I am the cause of this problem, and hope someone can help to extricate me.

I bought my Rezound in April, excited that ICS was coming. I soon found the leaked ICS 4.0.3/Sense 3.6 and installed the leak, and have been (largely) happily enjoying it. There have been some small issues, and when I read that Verizon was finally sending ICS out to the Rezound, I checked and found that I couldn't get it unless my phone was put back to GB. That's when the problem started.

I've tried numerous ROMs, but really don't know what I'm doing, and after almost 20 hours of reading the various posts and searches, am no farther to a resolution than where I started yesterday.

The phone, no matter what I try to load, boots fine until it hits the 4G LTE screen and then freezes. Here's the HBOOT/FASTBOOT screen:

*** LOCKED ***

VIGOR PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT-2.27.0000

RADIO-2.22.10.0801r/2.22.10.0803r

OpenDSP--v14.6.0.7708.00.0507

eMMC-boot

Aug 6 2012,19:24:37

I would love to get it whole enough to receive OTAs, but would be happy to get back where I started. Can someone help me please?
[HTC Rezound] d.kozzer:
Someone more knowledgeable may correct me, but HBOOT 2.27 & 2.22 radios are the newest version. So you're already upgraded to the newest stuff. Try installing an AOSP or ICS ROM and see if that works.
[HTC Rezound] gandroid2:
I made progress?

Thank you, that's actually more good news than I expected!

I have lost total confidence in any knowledge I thought I had. If someone could give me 1st grader level guidance toward installing an AOSP or ICS ROM, I would be most appreciative.
[HTC Rezound] d.kozzer:
It's easy.... if you like AOSP/CM9, I'd recommend the "le n00b" ROM in the dev section. If you like Sense 3.6, try Vigor360. If you like Sense 4, I really liked ViperRom. Just go to the OP of any thread for those, download the newest version to a PC or onto your SD card.

Then, go check out Scotty's noob friendly guide to rooting on AndroidForums (there might be an equivelent thread here, but I used this guide). I recommend using Amon Ra as your recovery, which is linked toward the top of the first post.
[HTC Rezound] SynisterWolf:
if you want to go aosp you will need to s-off the phone to get there.

but you are on the latest update. you can only run roms built off the global ruu such as:

to flash said roms you will need to htc dev unlock and then flash a recovery and then you can do any of the three roms above. if you want to be on a rom that is build off an older release you will need to s-off the phone.
[HTC Rezound] gandroid2:
Thanks synisterwolf.

I'll look at the roms you recommended and appreciate the information and wisdom you shared.

I'll also check out the organizations listed in your signature.

Thanks again.
[HTC Rezound] plemelin:
I would use hasoons toolkit to unlock and install amon ra. The 4.03.605.2 RUU runs smooth and quick.
[HTC Rezound] gandroid2:
Thank you. I'm looking at it next.
[HTC Rezound] d.kozzer:
Yeah, this is a good tool too.

For Scotty's guide, you're clearly on the HTC Unlock stage,maybe you should find the latest RUU and flash that? It'll have all parts of the phone's system (ROM, bootloader, recovery, radios, etc), so you'll have a clean phone (meaning all data will be wiped), and all the different pieces will work together and you should be able to boot into the stock ROM, then follow the guide from there starting with the HTC unlock. I think where you were at in post #1, you had all the ICS/global firmware but were trying to boot a gingerbread ROM which will fail every time. If you use an RUU, everything will be in sync.
[HTC Rezound] gandroid2:
Nice,that's the original version which started this journey. I had downloaded it prior to starting all this, and messed up my Rezound by not doing it correctly. Now it's the one which (finally) worked. I don't know how it worked, unfortunately, as it didn't work exactly like Scotty told me it would, and the first few times I tried to install it were unsuccessful also.

Thanks again.
[HTC Rezound] gandroid2:
It's alive!

Thank you all for your help. Your replies encouraged me and directed me toward the solution.

Scotty's guide worked, although not exactly like it said it would. I now have the version I originally wanted, and it all works, except for the SU.

I installed CWM-SuperSU-v0.96.zip per Scotty, but I have don't have the SU ability. Undoubtedly did something wrong.

Thanks again.
[HTC Rezound] d.kozzer:
Glad to help!

If you're using SU, then open up the app by going into the app drawer and see if there's a way for you to "update the binary". The binary is the meat and bones of the superuser app, and for some reason it's not working well out of the box on some roms, and you need to update it to get it working.
[HTC Rezound] gandroid2:
Apparently I'm not using SU after all.I tried to update with superuser and it "Failed to find currently installed su binary". I also opened Titanium Backup and it couldn't acquire root privileges. I missed something...

yes you are, firmware, radio, and hboot all updated to the latest :good:
[HTC Rezound] LakerStar25:
Yep all good, only thing did you unlock your bootloader even though your S-OFF? Only ask cause after S-OFF on mine and flashing amon ra I don't get the tampered message anymore.

[HTC Rezound] Spyke562:
Hey LakerStar25,

No i did not re-unlock my bootloader. My understanding since i am s-off i do not have to? Also i think i can flash a different bootloader to get rid of the tampered message?

I just wanted to make sure i was all up to date. I was getting confused with all the talk about flashing the leaked kernel, RUU, and firmware. Wasn't sure which to flash do i picked the RUU. Guess that was the correct one!
[HTC Rezound] SynisterWolf:
once you are s-off it doesnt matter the state of hboot being locked vs unlocked. BUT if you want to do fastboot commands with ADB you will need to have an unlocked hboot OR and engineering hboot.
[HTC Rezound] Spyke562:
Hey Synisterwolf,

Thanks for the clarification, I new there was something i was missing. Now that you said that I remember running into that issue in the past and had to flash an eng hboot.
[HTC Rezound] LakerStar25:
Yea sinister is right. I was just wondering because the tampered message yours has on the stock 2.27 hboot I have the stock hboot to but I don't have that message and was wondering why you do that's all.

Device:

Stock ROM 4.0.3 LPG with Siyah kernel 3.4.1

I've tried with and without my Galaxy case, also tried few othe camera applications (include stock camera) all getting the same result:

When i'm taking a picture outside at night with auto flash / flash on - there is a purple line on the right side (can clearly see at the bottom right of the photo), sometimes on the top of the photo (can clearly seen at the right top - when you put the phone on other side)

anyone notice this thing? there is something to do about it ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsyOr:
Just to confirm, I've check it without any case, also my finger is not close to the flash...

Also tried at other AOKP 4.0.4 ROM...same results...

Did anyone have this issue? (Only when using flash outside while it dark)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsyOr:
After tried with few camera applications - seems like when I took a photo with lower resolution and lower quality this purple/pink line almost disappears.

again, its happens only when using flash at place with not much details - if im taking a photo (with the same situation) of something with more details or closer to something it won't appear.....

can anyone check it? take a picture of skys at

night

with flash on (im using the highest quality of photo) and see if you got this purple line at the right side or at the top of the photo....

will appreciate to understand what this problem is...

thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsyOr:
By the way, anyone have an idea how to put a buffer between the lens and flash? to check if its the led flashing into the lens....

Also I would like to know if anyone else notice this thing while taking a photo of dark sky with flash....(eventough its wrong to take a photo like that)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsyOr:
Im sorry for bothering....but Iv'e notice another thing, that maybe discussed before - the PINK SPOT...

notice it while taking a photo while dawning without flash - notice that pink spot in the middle of the screen, tried few ROMS [include stock], few camera apps...same result...notice it only outside while dawn....

There is any fix to this thing? it is a known issue?

heres a photo:

[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
That may not be a bad thing.
[Motorola Droid 3] vbhokiefan:
not forgotten? how about forgotten and abused. (unless of course you spend good money with us again to replace a phone you shouldnt have to)

so you release a phone. in less than 6 months you release its successor. then you fail to provide any support or updates. you leave it off the ics upgrade path.

then you come out with another phone less than a year later, and offer $100 off? screw you moto.

sorry we completely screwed you on your prior purchase, but please buy another of our phones. it has what yours should have. no thanks.

the only way moto would get a positive point in my book is if they kept the promise to unlock the D3 bootloader, which we all know will never ever happen.
[Motorola Droid 3] MyNarwhalBacon:
I wonder how the 100 dollar credit will work. I know it will only work on Moto phones.

If it's for an upgrade at a Verizon store, it's worthless. I would lose my unlimited contract.

If it's for an upgrade at wholesale, it's a better than nothing, but I wouldn't likely go for it (unless they have an unlocked kickass phone coming out in the next 3 months).

If it's a 100 dollar upgrade from any store, including a used one on E-bay, I would actually consider it.

Until then, 250 for a used Galaxy Nexus, is very tempting.
[Motorola Droid 3] spunker88:
Well Motorola/Verizon have to add all of the bloatware on top so it would probably not run the smoothest. Stock GB with all of its bloatware struggles with RAM. I have Android ICS x86 with Gapps in Virtualbox and set the RAM to the total amount that the Droid 3 reports ~375MB. ICS has quite a bit more free RAM than my stock GB which has all bloatware frozen.

As far as the $100 upgrade offer, the Droid 3 is still going for over $100 on ebay used but that may change by next year. The Razr M does look pretty nice, I can't stand the big screen phones that are coming out and the Razr M manages to pack a 4.3" screen with smaller dimensions than the Droid 3. If they come out with a keyboard version it would be tempting.
[Motorola Droid 3] ratman6161:
$100 off is completely worthless. If I want to upgrade now in the middle of a contract cycle Verizon lists a Droid 4 for $549 so even at $100 off its still $449 and I'm way better off just waiting another year for my next contract renewal. The only way it helps me is if I can file away that discount to be used in September of 2013.
[Motorola Droid 3] cappysw10:
We were never in the pipeline for ICS let alone Jellybean. This is the "carrot before the horse" trick. Not even well played, Moto is dead in the water. Nexus is the future of Android. Still love my brick though.

Seems a lot of people are not familiar with this service.

Google offers a free service through which you can print from your tablet wirelessly to any printer connected to your computer. It is pretty simple.

1. Download Chrome Browser on your desktop.

2. Go to Advanced Settings Link in Settings.

3. Scroll down to "Google Cloud Print"

4. Click "Manage Print Settings...", and pretty much follow the instructions from there.

Then on your tablet,

1. Download "PrinterShare" from Play Store.

2. Follow instructions. When given the option you will choose Cloud Printer.

3. Print by sharing your document with your PrinterShare. Works best if you share it as an image file.

4. You can adjust the layout of the printed document just prior to printing.

That's it.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Nefariouss:
Yeah. You can use print share mobile too. I find the interface a tad better and while it does have a pay portion there is no limit for charge for printing through Google cloud print with it. However I've never paid attention to if you can print through the share option with this as I normally save the file then print it.

I've almost got myself talked into a Samsung printer to print directly from snotes.

Edit: just checked and you can print via share as well.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] mitchellvii:
Yeah the share thing is helpful because you can obviously print directly from websites. It also compresses the website into a .pdf for you prior to printing.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Nefariouss:
Just checked snotes and it looks like you can print via share from there if you choose share as an image file. The hand written notes only take up 1/4 of a normal piece of paper this way though. Not sure about anything else like drawings.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] mitchellvii:
Oh really? Cool will have to check that.

** Just make sure your desktop computer isnt sleeping or it wont work. For me notes took up whole page.

Ok i see. If you use the Printer Share app then yeah it prints them small. However, if you want to print multiple pages you have to use Printer Share. The Cloud Print app only works on individual pages.

OK, If using PrinterShare you can select "printer options" then "size to page" and notes will fill entire page :)

Yeah PrinterShare definitely the way to go here.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] stuartv:
Epson has Epson iPrint as a free app in the Play store. It works with a bunch of their printers, including mine. I can print straight from my tablet to the printer - without going through the Internet or another computer.

And I can scan straight from my printer (it's an all-in-one) to my tablet, too.

So, when shopping for a new printer, maybe check to see if the manufacturer has an Android app like what Epson has. Or get an Epson. Supporting manufacturers directly, who are supporting Android, seems like a good idea to me.
