    Grandfathered UDP Still Going Strong

    I have an old grandfathered UDP. Here's my plan: 90.00 unlimited talk and text 50.00 unlimited data plan 30.00 Unlimited Hotspot With small discounts, I end up paying around 165.00 per month. I use the hotspot all the time and have not noticed any throttling on either my main phone or on the...

    What's the point of this phone?

    First The specs and form factor are so close to the OG Razr series, I can't see the point of Moto/Google releasing this phone. Especially in a non Maxx build. I thought the acquisition was supposed to stop these mid model releases. JH

    How is the GNEX official, there is no news on the VZW site?

    I've seen the copy and pasted news releases supposedly from Verizon. However, when I go to Verizon's website for primary source information, there is no mention of a December 15th launch and no mention of the phone. If anyone can post a link directly from Verizon, then I will be a believer.

    Droid Bionic 2?

    I don't know about you guys, but I have been on the fence with the Bionic. The way VZW upgrades phone hardware every few months, I'm wondering if a Bionic 2 is in the works that will fix all the bugs in the current Bionic. I dont know what Motorola did in the many months since CES, but it seems...

    We're screwed. 2GB is the threshold for so called "network optimization/throttling"

    2GB puts you in the top 5%. Really? I average 3GB to 6GB each month and don't do anything out of the ordinary. Pandora, some Netflix, podcasts, gps and casual browsing. As of now, this only applies to 3G plans. Once we all upgrade to 4G, then we will be under the VZW data microscope. Read...

    Should I buy?

    Have an opportunity to get a clean esn mint X for 200.00. My current phone is a Dinc. 4G is not in my area and will not be for a long time. The Dinc is a great phone, but I want the larger screen. A new unit from VZW is currently 400.00. I'm not gonna do any more contracts. Any thoughts?

    Help I don't want to root, I only want access for wireless tether

    I hope when this phone comes out, I can enable wireless tethering. I don't care about custom roms. I hate the crapware, but I can live with it as long as I can have free hotspot.

    I don't believe that many ATT customers will switch to VZW. Here's why.....

    1. Current Iphone/ATT customers are so used to horrible phone coverage (dropped calls) that they will wait for the LTE Iphone to ship. The one that will be announced on Jan 11th will be 3G only. 2. A new Iphone 5 will be announced June/July 2011. If these people switch to VZW, then they will...

    For me, It's all about the battery

    I really enjoy my Dinc. However, constantly chasing power is an issue for me. I will need to get a little more than a days use out of the Thunderbolt for me to get this phone. The lack of HDMI output is not that big a deal. I'd love a 2000mah stock battery. HTC knows the competition is the...

    I want to format my phone and sd card. How do I save my legacy apps

    As the title says, I want to wipe my phone and start over. However, I have a few good legacy apps. For example, I have the version of "Shazam" that lets me sample unlimited songs and the NFL app that lets me watch the Sunday "Redzone". Can I easily back these original apps up so that I don't...

    Swype is da bomb diggity

    Installed Swype the other day on my Dinc. I'm convinced this is one of the best apps for the phone. It took a few hours to get used to it, but now I am pretty quick with it.

    Help My camcorder does not work after Froyo upgrade

    I updated officially to Froyo 2.2 today from the VZW notification. Now, whenever I select my camcorder, it goes back to the home screen and does not launch. I removed a flashlight app that I had installed from the market. I restarted several times. Tried removing the battery for 15 minutes. All...

    Another month, another 7-8GB of data used

    I don't consider myself a heavy data user. When I'm home or at a place with wifi, that is what I use. I stream podcasts with Google Listen mostly and use Pandora in the car. My commute is roughtly 90 minutes per day. So far, I am averaging 7-8GB of data each month. I thought it would be less...

    Does anyone's data counter reset monthly?

    I have an Incredible since launch. My minutes/texts/data are supposed to reset each month. However, my data ticker keeps adding. I have the VZW app intalled and I check it from the website. My minutes and text count do reset. Anyone else notice this? I do have the "unlimited data" plan.

    Need input from a Google Voice user.

    I have Google Voice that I setup online. Is there any reason to download the app from the market? Downloading from the market takes you thru the same setup sequence as doing it online.

    I'm at 3GB data usage with a few more days in my billing cycle

    Since I got my Incredible, I use Pandora/Google Listen/Ustream/You Tube/Twit and just general non streaming surfing. When I can, I use WIFI. I don't consider myself a heavy user but know full well that my data usage will increase when Netflix and Slingbox come on board. It seems like I blew thru...

    Is there a great PDF viewer in the Android Market?

    When I get my Incredible, I have an urgent need for a PDF reader that actually works well. It does not have to be free. My file size ranges up to 11mb. If I can't find one for Android, then I may have to carry two devices. I want to replace my Ipod Touch which has PDF apps with my Incredible...

    HTC Incredible is the Nexus One and Moto Droid killer

    Face it. The google.com/phone site says it all. "Spring 2010" for the Nexus One. Once the Incredible is in stores, don't expect any excitement about the Nexus One. That's what happens when you are late to market. Nexus had a chance, but all bets are off now. I don't think anyone that...

    I know several people who are going to jump to ATT

    If VZW doesn't announce a specific launch date for the VZW Nexus One, I know of at least 10 people that are going give up and go with the Iphone. I am also a candidate to leave VZW. ATT coverage is great in my area. We all want to support the Android alternative. However, this "coming soon"...

    Goooooooooogle

    If the Nexus One wants to succeed, then they should adopt the Motorola advertising scheme. Instead of hearing Droooooooid, do commercials that say Gooooooooooooge. :o

    Finally saw an Eris TV commercial

    On the travel channel today, I saw a 30 second commercial for the Eris. It was by HTC and not VZW. Glad to see the Droid is not the only one getting some luv.
