[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] legend221:
I've owned many a phone, from the first Android with the G1 to the RAZR HD and I have honestly never had a more fast, stable and force close free phone. This device is truly amazing and the battery life is flipping incredible. My wife has an S3 and it's okay but I would definitely rather own this one over that.

Development has exploded, as of right now I am running the following Rom. Perfection... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2293262
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lorenzo VonMatterhorn:
thank you sir. ! this helped a lot. its good to hear from someone who has seen both phones firsthand.

do you ever feel like the one gig of ram is not enough?
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] legend221:
You're welcome mate. The 1 GB of Ram is more than enough for my needs. I can have a lot of different apps running and never notice it sluggish or falling behind. I've seen a article or two mentioning that the camera isn't all that great and I can agree just a bit.

Only negatives are the non removable battery and the camera quality. All else is top notch.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inscribe Productions:
Similar decision

I figured I'd post this for anybody else considering the RAZR HD.

.

I first used the original DX for two years before switching to the HD.

Here's my opinion:

Pros:

- Great battery. HD is good. MAXX is unbelievable

- Comfortable to use. Not too large, not too small, and a pleasure to operate.

- Removable storage

Cons:

- VERIZON. nuff said

- RAM used up fairly quickly.

- No removable battery (bad)

- NFC works fine, but the big V won't allow its customers to use Wallet:(

- Sound is meh.

- No OFFICIAL Cyanogenmod 10.1

- Unlocked bootloader = AP Fastboot EVERY power down AND you mustn't allow the battery to die with an unlocked bootloader.

I certainly love my HD more than the DX, but unless the X phone is amazing, I'm leaving Motorola.

I must say that I truly love this phone. seems snappy and honestly no issues. I am going to venture into flashing my first ROM tonight when I get off of work. I had a gnex, which had a ton of support. I didn't like it so I traded it in for the rezound. It had way less support, but the devs were awesome! I bought this phone on CL and I must say it has even less development. That is my only concern about this phone. I would hope that the unlocked boot loader would bring on more devs, but coming from an OG, to the X, it appears the devs are not feeling the moto love.. If I had the money Id buy my favorite devs this phone. I think they would love it..

AP Fastboot every time can either be a Sticky Bit error (from not tweaking a fastboot's xml file before flashing with RSD) or just a bad flash somewhere in general. Ensure you're using the snapdragon fastboots located in Mattlgroffs section on the Batakang FTP whenever you're doing any kind of fastboot flashing on any RAZR QCOM phone -- Atrix HD, all RAZR HD variants, both Phonton Q 4G LTE's.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jfriend33:
I tether just fine using easy tether pro. Sure it's not wireless but it's an easy way to get Internet on my netbook once in a blue moon. Worked just fine before I rooted.

I don't really disagree with anything from the previous entry. You would think motorola mobility's acquisition would have significantly changed things for the better. All I saw was a loss of webtop support. And wow going from the support of the galaxy nexus forums to these was a bit of an adjustment.

I watched a video today at android central regarding specs. Why they become so important. You don't see the issue with apple or windows phone. Yes there's fewer devices. More options should cause a healthy competition and I think we're getting there.

I do love the battery life on this phone. It's the sole reason I have it. I do also appreciate that there aren't tons of issues with the display and having to deal with worrying about the quality of a replacement device. Nobody wants a phone they can't rely on or enjoy. I just think it's funny how my galaxy nexus had all the features a year ago and I'm just finally starting to have friends and acquaintances ask me or brag to me about them.

I do think the X phone and its customizable aspects are great for certain users. But look how apple sells the iPhone. They focus on a feature like its camera. Interesting stuff.

Maybe android needs a figurehead to blatantly lie about her/his health to the public and get backdated stock options.

Edit 1

I do find it unsettling that technology advances so quickly that a device is much less popular in 6 months or a year. I feel this way especially because most people are in a contract for two years and are stuck with the device.

Edit 2

At least with a computer, you can upgrade it. Give it a new display, video card, max out the ram and it's like Christmas. Perhaps one day technology will permit the majority of smartphones to not only expand their storage space, but also easily enhance the hardware.

[HTC One S] clubkevin11:
Hello guys, I've been having problems with my One S and i hope you can help me out.

I noticed lately that the signal has gotten A LOT worse than what it used to be. Its sort of on and off. Most of the time is gets bad and I have little to no bars, even in places where i used to get full reception. This is really becoming an issue, as T-Mobile coverage in my area is already bad enough. :(

I am running the latest version of the PAC Man ROM, though i don't think it's relevant since this was going on before i flashed it a few days ago. I did a search to see if i could flash another radio, but found nothing.

My second issue is my battery life. I went through the trouble of updating my hboot so i could run the latest version of my ROM that included the new 3.4 Kernel. I noticed ever since i flashed it, my battery life has been terrible. I know this is a known issue, but i don't run CM10 so i can't flash the nightlys that are supposed to fix it. Can anyone recommend a kernel?

here is the ROM I'm currently running: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2164406

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] asjshenry:
I have a firmware question that I can't seem to find the answer to by searching. I am running arhd 11 on an att HTC one. Should I upgrade the firmware on my phone? Will there be any benefits to this since I am on att and not international? Also how do I go about updating the firmware and does it wipe the device? If I should upgrade, what it's the version I should download? Longtime Samsung user so please excuse the noobness.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] v-b-n:
If alls running well, then plz avoid ... however, in ARHD thread many AT&T users have updated the firmware without any side-effects

Best to post Q in that thread itself
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Jmarv:
It is currently not mandatory to flash the new firmware for ARHD, but it does provide a noticeable increase performance depending on the current firmware version you are running, I was running 1.26 on my AT&T m7 and the screen and touch buttons have been much more responsive now that I am running the new 2.24. Flashing the new firmware will also update the baseband, providing you with the latest radio (but performance of this will vary from region to region.

If you go to this link, it will give you some great instructions on the update process.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=42556698&postcount=24958

BTW, you will need to be s-off and change your cid to 11111111. As long as you take your time and follow the directions completely you will be fine. If you do update make sure you flash the firmware TWICE when it says to, and make sure you re-flash your custom recovery because it will get replaced during the updating process. This process will not delete your sd card and you will be able to run your current ARHD, but it is recommended to do a clean install after. And you might as well since 12.0 is out.

hope this helps

[One (M7) Themes and Apps] peteri8706:
+1 to this.

It would look much cleaner. The only way to do this now is to use a 3rd party launcher like Go Launcher Ex where it gives you the option. But, you loose the Sense 'desktop' so to speak as well as most Sense widgets and Blinkfeed. Not to mention it does suck some more power/battery.

Would really be great if a dev could come up with this mod only. If it is possible with Go Launcher, then it would be possible as a standalone flashable zip or replacement apk.

Hi guys,

Since N2A cards don't support either of these options, they said Android doesn't support the HDTV adapter, Bluetooth is flaky at best, and wait until the release of JB 4.3. OUCH!

Will side loading apps be a problem too, or will I be able to use the hardware if the app needs it, since the OS is still the same?

And isn't the HDTV adapter basically a driver issue in Android, which can be addressed with a update?

I hope I haven't asked a question that has been answered before, and was quite entertained by the sign-up video.

Thanks,

I want to install GAPPS and for this i need Recovery Mode.

[HTC Droid DNA] Noobixide:
Hello everyone,

I had one of the original DNA's that had the SIM card issues. It ended up getting so bad that I had to take it into Verizon. The agent approved a warranty return and my new phone has arrived. I guess my first question would be: "Do I need to restore my phone back to factory?" This includes finding a way to remove **TAMPERED** and re-locking the phone.

If so, how do I go about removing **TAMPERED**? I saw a similar question when I did my initial forum search but the OP said he figured it out and linked to Moonshine. Which, I don't really understand how that would help because I feel like that would be the opposite of what I want to do.:confused:

Basically, I just don't want to get stuck with the price of the replacement phone (which was a Verizon certified pre-owned... That was a bit disappointing.)

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lambstone:
The screen of course.

To maximise battery life, it is recommended, you do not use the phone at all.

I guarantee you will have outstanding battery life if you hardly touch your phone at all.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omniwolf:
I haven't done extensive testing, but I have noticed that even though I get incredible deep sleep over night (95%), my phone still uses a lot of battery over an 8 hour period (15-25% - as opposed to my SGS3 which would use <10%).

I thought at first maybe it was the Air gesture -> Quick glance feature, as it will have to monitor the gyroscope constantly and if the phone is flat (which it is over night for me), then it'll have the gesture sensor on as well. Last night I tried turning that feature off (actually i turned all motion and gesture, smart screen, and air view features off), and there was no noticable improvement in battery life overnight, so it seems that my problem is still there, but also that the gimmicky feature doesn't actually appear to use too much battery.

Note; the gesture stuff doesn't use the camera, it has it's own sensor.

the Air view (i assume this is what you're referring to when you say finger hover) feature won't use more battery as it's only active in certain apps, so will only use more battery while those apps are active.
