A small thanks - Droid Eris General

About a month ago, I moved on from my Eris to a Droid X2. The microphone on my Eris quit working (bad connection) and I was near contract upgrade date.
Thanks to all the developers here that kept my Eris running smooth and fast the past 2 years.

[Q&A] Eris recieved call echoes

My first post and my first thread on xda but been a lurker for several months. Long story short rooted my Eris w/ jcases one click root method (donate to this guy he's awesome) and then tried kaos.froyo v35 and nonsensikal v7 (loved it) and just enjoyed being rooted all together. But since I upgraded to froyo my calls that I would make or receive would have an echo on the persons end I would be talking to. Called tech support to ask what would cause this and they said to *228 and update roam cap. No help went looking into other options but no dice. So removed root w/ leak-v3 and pb001.zip and reflashed to stock. Echo is now gone. Any insight to why my root is causing echo. Will post links to remove root the easy way soon
I also have a blown speaker on the back...so my replacement coming from Verizon should take care of both issues..I was just scared to send the phone back in a rooted state...call me paranoid.

Not paranoid, smart.
I had read in the unroot threads where people were sending the phones back still rooted but with my luck it would void warranty. Had a similar issue with the cold air intake on my car. Had a sensor that crapped out and the stealership tried to blame the intake. Done with that stuff

Well just got the new Eris in from VZW...rooted already and Flashing Nonsensikal V7 vanilla...hooray
we shall see what this holds
I'm having a similar issue on kaos froyo 35-1.
A month or so ago I rooted my Droid Eris and upgraded to KaosFroyo. Shortly afterwards i started getting complaints of poor sound quality on some calls.
It only happened when using my wired (not bluetooth) headset.
Last night I did some testing, and found the following combos
- headset with another phone - good
- Droid Eris KaosFroyo with no headset - good
- Droid Eris original backup with headset - good
- Droid Eris KaosFroyo with headset - poor. It was described as "tinny and echo-y, hollow"
I find it slightly odd that OS selection would make a difference for sound quality, but it was pretty clear in the test. Has anyone else had similar issues with KaosFroyo? Any ideas for fixes?
I have a Jabra wired headset, Droid Eris, and KaosFroyo v35-1.

4g problems!

So my tbolt has been acting weird lately. I am using synergy ROM with 2.5 radio and have never had any real issues. These past 3 days however my phone has not been cooperating well. When charging it will sometimes turn off and will not turn back on for a while. Also when I did get it turned on this morning I had 4g for a short amount of time then it went away. I now only have 3g and want to have my 4g back. Does anyone know if greensboro NC has no 4G today? And any solutions to my problem would be helpful!

if you updated the newest Synergy, it runs off of the latest 2.11 build. that being the case, the 2.5 radio might not work very well with it and i suggest switching to the new 3.5 radio.

My next task is the get Tether working
A Guy over on the "other forum" is having major data dropping issues. I'm curious about the update and wondering why I haven't rec'd it. I'm totally stock. Went into about phone and system updates but it says I'm up to date. But I'm on .744?? Guess they're pushing them slowly as usual...

To get tethering to work with your RAZR. First download the wireless tethering app 3.1 beta 7. Install of course. Phone must be rooted. Also download rom
manager and open rom Manager and and go to. Fix permissions let that run. And the restart phone. Now tether your heart out.

I updated a moment ago from stock to stock.
So far it seems to be smoother. I meant really reminding me of the word "silky"
but I can't get Vibrant Feedback of stock multitouch keyboard to work even I ticked it at settings.
Sound feedback of the multi touch keyboard is fine.
Anyone else having issue like this?
The physical key haptic feedback when I press anything is still there. So I assume it is the software issue only.

I'm the guy.
Went and got a new SIM today and it fixed it a bit, but my signal was much better before. I'm at my work desk, and with the old update, I always had 4g. Now I'm 3g. I get 4g when I leave.

Just updated from the file on droidforums & the voodoo ota root keeper from the market works perfectly to reroot after the update. The only issue apparently is when safe strap is used because of the modifications to the preinstall partition. I hadn't moved from bootstrap yet so everything worked.

no update in my part of GA yet either.
after about 40 hours
my battery life is down with this update
my 4G is now dropping
i would not update my phone @ this point with this update
I'm 100% stock and after the update its running very smooth!! The stock launcher seems to have gotten faster?? Camera and over all performance is better. I don't know about data yet because VERIZON'S DATA IS DOWN AGAIN! but other then that its very good for me. Been running this for about 10 hours.

There have been a lot of 3G and 4G outages in the past several days. Make sure you're not a victim of that. There are DEFINITE issues this morning. I don't have the update installed, totally stock phone - and yesterday and today I have no 4G at work. I'm on a 4th floor by a window. I normally have a great 4G connection here.
Everyone Else: There's no trick you can do at this point to get the update. It's not released officially, it's only been sent out to a few beta testers. You are either going to get it by checking for the update, or not. Eventually they'll release it to everyone soon.
I'm in the same boat as mistawolfe, the update has made things much worse for me on the data side. On my way to work today, I had NO data for more than half the time, and only 3G the other half of the time. While at home, I have always had strong 4G and that has not changed after the update. But at work yesterday after I applied the update, it was the same thing, only 3G or NO data. Same today, more than half the time I have no data, and the other half only 3G. Going back and forth between no data and data is unacceptable. 3G/4G switching is fine, but this is horrible. 1/2 the time I can't even use the data. Terrible. I would not recommend this update.

Please see my post above you. There are known issues with Verizons data network this morning. There have been several issues in the past few weeks. Don't be so fast to blame your update. http://www.engadget.com/2011/12/21/psa-verizon-users-reporting-data-outages-across-the-us/

Missed that, thanks. Talk about a strange coincidence, but at least it gives me hope (Although I'm still a bit weary as it started yesterday morning for me right after the update). Anyway, will hang tight and see if things get better. Hard to believe we are having another 4G/data outage again not even 2 weeks later! Big time growing pains for Verizon

[Q] Need Input for Joker CM9

Didn't want to clam up the CM9 thread with this so am asking here. I am currently running rooted stock GB on my Photon and since hearing about official ICS probably being dropped for Photon, I'm seriously considering unlocking and flashing CM9.
However, since I use this phone for business I need to know exactly what is working currently and what is not. I have not been able to find a working/non-working listing for the current build in Joker's thread and have read through the "fixes" thread.
I know 4g is not working (obviously). I also have read that camcorder and possibly mms is not working. Is this true? Saw there may be a version with mms working? How about bluetooth, gps, camera, etc? Any wifi or wireless tether issues? Is there anything with limited functionality that has no real fix yet?
**EDIT...Have given CM9 a shot and with some testing had to switch to something else.
Camera is sketchy, kinda depends on who you ask. Everything else pretty much works. Even if you find something funky it'll probably get fixed within a couple of days. Gotta love the speed of the updates.
I've run into more trouble with apps not being ICS-compliant than with the ROM itself, which is what prevents me from getting too excited.
I haven't heard anything about the official ICS being dropped though; most of that comes from people in panic mode after the EOL leak. Motorola could still support the Photon for a long while after Sprint's EOL date. EOL basically means no new ones to be sold, not that it never existed. I saw Sprint selling Heroes a couple of months ago and they were yanked years ago.

Thing that concerned me about the EOL release is Sprint stating that the only updates that will be released for those devices are critical updates. Sprint will still have to test and approve ICS once Moto is done with it which may not happen now.
As for CM9, does camcorder work for you? Are you on the latest build?
I switched back to stock so I can't test it but the still camera worked fine for me this morning. I was running 0.4.2.1.
Anyone know where I can get the pudding unlocker? Google doesn't turn up anything for me and links are down.
Edit...I used the smaller one. Noticed it is unlocked with that so ignore my request.
Well I'm on MIUI 2.3.16, which is based on Joker's CM9, and my video camera is extremely laggy. It also crashes when I try to hit the stop record button. Also, flash player in the browser is messed up. For the most part though everything works. You can get MMS working by using GoSMSPro, or setting up APNs.
Wifi, and wireless tether works perfectly fine for me. Hope this helps.
Edit, The3Bill just put up a fix for MMS.

I'm on stock, any time my 3G vanishes I just reboot and its back, the first time it happened I didn't think to do that and took it to the verizon store and the guy put in a new SIM card, I'm betting that was probably a waste of time now.
Haha..actually when im at GB back tgen ,i dont have any problem with 3g.but after a few weeks on ICS China,it just slow..
I suffer almost the same issue these days. Suddenly 3G and 2G signal drop, and after 10 seconds it restore, I have no idea of it.

I was on the original ICS leak and was pretty happy with it for quite a while. Decided to try one of the other ROMs, and almost bricked. RSD back to GB, and all of a sudden my performance and speed went through the roof. I didn't realize just how much my phone had slowed down on that leaked ROM.
As such, I have decided to stick with a full stock GB until the official ICS is released.....at least that's my decision for the time being. It could change by this afternoon, but since I accepted the 181 fw it's probably not worth messing with.
I have actually been surprised at how satisfied I have been with GB since I switched back. I'm normally on the bleeding edge and used ICS since the Galaxy Nexus, but maybe I'm just tired of reloading my phone/FW every other week.
Few random thoughts from a holiday weekend.

I don't think this is a bug with any roms or ICS. Been happening to me for a while. I'm completely stock on Razr Maxx and never rooted or flashed any roms. It's a known bug for us Razr users. Don't know if it's Motorola or Verizon at fault but it's very annoying and they need to quit messing around and hire people who can give customers satisfaction for choosing their phone and carrier.
