Where's the love in DX FORUM? - Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I miss the eris community. The DX part of XDA is dead. If any eris developers switch over to the x. I'm dYing for something to flash over to worth while!

Wow, and I was worried all of our ROM devs were leaving. Sadly despite the size the Droid X looks like one of the best phones out there right now for Verizon.

Its a nasty fast device, but on the geek side. No custom kernels yet so limited to how custom a rom can get. They have some nice blurless roms that are fast. But non worth leaving stock for, I have over-clocked to 1.35ghz and I get to play the playstation fairly errorless. But still not my eris.

fare thee well

I sadly lost my droid eris back on new years eve (party of course...) and have been a week or so without a phone. Thankfully a coworker did some work with Adobe, and they sent him 2 free Droid 2s so he could develop apps for it, I bought one of them from him.
So I'll be spending most of my time on xda over there now... if I find my droid eris I might come back and be a decent alpha tester lol.
I'm hoping to grab the thunderbolt when it comes out, maybe we will see each other in the future.
I will trade an Eris for a Droid 2. Hey I had to try.

Look I've got a TB and jailbroken and rooted several. IF you had the oppertunity to trade for another what would it be? I'm looking at the Bionic. Just don't know.

That is a very non-descriptive subject line.
Don't be surprised if this thread gets no traction.

Perhaps you should go for an iPhone if you like jailbreaking...
Heh, just ribbing you. I think the Bolt is a great phone, the only real downfall being the stock battery, which I fixed by getting the extended battery.
That being said, I love HTC devices. If I were to want something else (which I don't), I'd have to say perhaps the EVO 3D or the Sensation.

I wouldn't trade it for anything out there yet. I have completely written off Moto because of the insistence on Blur (oh wait it's not blur it is the Moto UI nevermind what the files are actually called) and the locked and encrypted bootloaders. HTC is much more dev friendly and has open-sourced Sense additionally has announced that they will not have locked bootloaders anymore. Plus this phone is fast, 4g is awesome and the ROMs out there are great!

Just talked with verizon...again. Need your help guys.

I've been having issues with network here in Scarborough Maine. At first Verizon was quick to help but after 2-3 months of trying to get them to fix it its like they are trying to ignore me. Also, this is after 2 replacement phones. So today I called back and they said my network ticket had been.....RESOLVED??!! Hmm this is the first I heard of it and obviously not since I'm still having speed issues. So I got transferred to tech support and they offered to give me a different model. She said no iPhone (I laughed and said that's fine I hate apple junk) and no 4G phones (dammit). So she gave me two phones that she "recommends" a Casio commander and an HTC rhyme....WTF!!?? So I kinda giggled and said I don't think those will work for ME. So I guess I'm allowed any current 3G phone on their website, I want suggestions from you guys annnnnd go!

great phone. single core but has a really good dev community. has more ram too, if im not mistaken. also has REALLY stable ics roms like cm9, aokp, miui, a sense 4 rom, paranoid, geeze theres alot of roms!
They gave me a Dinc2 and I love it. Just be aware the newer software on the phones are making it more dificult to downgrade to get s off. Which gives you perm root. When they downgrade with the newer software version sense roms bootloop. People are working on it and it is ongoing. AOSP roms will work fine like CM7 and CM9 or any aosp ICS rom.
jesus, verizon put up a helluva fight but after fighting with them tooth and nail for over 45 minutes, I am now the proud owner of a droid incredible 2. My time in the droid x 2 forums has been great everybody here has been extremely helpful in any issues or questions I've had. And as for the developers, thank you so very much for making this phone at all usable and enjoyable. Of course I will still be browsing through these forums because my roommate has the x2 but my time here has come to an end. moving on to bigger and better things!!! See you all on the flip side, actually, who am I kidding I will still be on these damn x2 forums everyday lol

well..... the rezound doesnt have any of those roms. We dont have a stable CM9 or AOKP. there are some but they are REALLY alpha (like no talk, texting, wifi, 3g/4g, etc) it pretty much boots. Although, there are some good roms. the one im running is Desensed, meaning there is less sense but its still there.
I actually went from resound to Droid x2 lol. So many issues with my resound. Besides ram issues I love dx2

Cool. I went to RAZR and it's definitely 10x (if not 100x) better than the X2.
Enjoy!

Youch. Not sure if the X2 could be considered to be better. At least, not from my experience!
Music on the X2 is awful. It constantly skipped and the 512mb of memory just doesn't cut it. If you're not using it for music, it's not bad, but as an MP3 player, wow. Poor, poor design.
But, if it's doing better than the resound, all the more power to yah! There are plenty of helpful people here with a lot of knowledge.
Enjoy!
Ugh guys, I've kinda gotten attached to my X2. I was looking through the Incredible 2 forums and it looks like I have a lot to learn lol

The X2 is losing people literally everyday. Congrats of the new device. Funny cause I still use my X2 everyday. My 4G signal is extremely iffy in my gym (and the wifi is un-useable) so when it goes out, no music and no Netflix. I whip out my X2 that now holds all my music internally and I'm all good.

I might just buy a cheap X2 in a while so I can keep screwing around with it, DzK's ICS has a lot of potential, it will only get better with time as he hacks the **** out of it lol

Atrix or Razr?

Hi what is best for webtop? And developement?
Looking to buy one (in france) but want to know whats the best ?
Atrix still has plenty of dev support. It's a little slow right now since we are waiting for ICS, but once that comes out then we will have CM9/10 goodness to look forward to.
ICS is scheduled to be released anytime between now and Oct 1st...

Maybe Razr is better.Atrix still hasn't ICS.MOTO pays more attention toRazr.

I can`t wait to get the ics goodyes my first android phone was a motorola defy ,it was a great phone but the fact that nothing official was realeased for it made me sell it after that i got the crappy g2 for htc and nwo i have the gorgeous atrix wich i love for its design battery and performance and after the ics update IT WILL BE THE BEST PHONE EVER
The Razr is a better phone IMO. The Atrix is great and has served me well but I feel that the Razr is better if you can find one priced similarly to the Atrix. Also, the Razr feels better built than the Atrix. Maybe its just me against plastic, but Kevlar is way cooler. Both phones have awesome dev communities though.
Sent from my undervolted, underclocked, power saving Motorola Atrix.
Razr is defiantly the better phone, it also tends to cost more. For the price of Razr you can get Atrix plus lapdoc. So, it depends on your budget.

Atrix! Just sold my recently acquired razr: No fingerprint reader, Webtop 3.1 sucks! And lapdocks too! So big and so thin to get it hold... Ics? Someday we'll see it on our Atrix so no big deal!
Nothing like an Atrix with a good custom rom and the Webtop2sd or ubuntop mod.
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
Razr is a little too big. But Razr max has really great battery and this is only reason for me to think about it.

Should I trade my thunderbolt for a droid razr and cash?

I offered to trade my thunderbolt for a droid razr and they offered it plus cash. Should I take it? I don't like moto much but just curious if anyone else thought it was a good deal.
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk 2
I suppose I'm just a fan of HTC phones, but I would stick to the Thunderbolt.
Your phone works perfectly and you know how to use it correctly. The Razr would be another whole thing to get used to and you take a chance on that phone having its issues.
I'm probably way out there on my concept, and I'd also hate to see you leave the Thunderbolt community. We've lost a lot of people already, and as active as you are here, it would be much lonely here.
Besides that, I just personally think the Thunderbolt is a better phone... but that's just my opinion of it.

I like my thunderbolt just fine I was just thinking of the moto razr as a slight upgrade. I'm mo stranger to Motorola all. My wife had the og droid and a droid 3 (both of which were huge piles of crap) and rooted them both. I'm just worried ill get that razr and it will be a huge steaming pile like my wife's droids. Thanks, you helped me decide against it.

Good. I tried. Haha.
I've mostly always heard bad reviews about moto phones.
Sent from my ADR6400L using xda premium
The displays in them after the og droid look like crap. You can actually see the digitizer on it which is annoying to me. Plus blur sucks really bad IMO. I think blur just looks terrible. Hardware wise the phone is better but I think the display and blur are enough for me to not want it.
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk 2
I know this is a few days old, but another vote for keeping the Thunderbolt. I checked out the RAZR and RAZR MAXX in the store, and absolutely hated the display and overly large bezel, as well as the odd hard edges of the phone. While the Thunderbolt is older and has lower specs, I still prefer it. Heck, I missed it after using a GS3 for a couple days.
Yea I'm not getting it. I really hate moto phones.
