Hello,
I have been using my Razr with spotify for about 5 days now. I play the music through my headphones in my commute. This morning I woke up and plugged my headphones in and it will not recognize them or any other pair of headphones. I figure the phone is broken, which is troubling because I have used the aux port the same way I treat any aux port and I have never had one break like this. I was wondering if anyone knows if there is an easy fix or do I have to go the the Verizon store. Also this being my first droid, is Motorola's build quality always this ****ty or did I just have some bad luck? I have a rather large commute and I don't want or need a phone that is just going to stop working a month in and cause me tons of money in repairs, never had this issue with any mp3 player . Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
You could try a factory reset and see if that helps. If not take it back and demand another handset.
This is my second Motorola phone, the first being the Photon and find build quality to be great on both handsets

Thanks ^_^ yeah I reset it and still nothing. Im glad to hear you have not had issues with Moto's build quality think I just got a fluke. Other than that I enjoy the phone I'm sure ill get a new one happy it happened now vs later.
What can i say, , it is your bad luck m8, get it replaced soon enough. Motorola's build quality is exceptional on all models.
Bad luck my friend. I had a screen that went whack for my first razr too. Can you return it for an exchange?

I have noticed that when I record video with the Thunderbolt that the picture quality is out of this world but the sound quality is terrible at best. I can barely hear my TV playing just 6 or 7 feet away from me. Anyone else have this problem?
I am running Infected ROM but have had this problem since it came out of the box.
Also, I was wondering, if I called VErizon support on this, could they tell that I had my phone rooted just by being on the phone with them?
This issue has been discussed on xda as well as a few other forums (htcs own community as well). I havent found an explanation or anything that fixes it unfortunately. I'm kinda upset about this since I'm constantly taking videos on my phone.

They don't know you're rooted. I exchanged my Moto droid 4 times, it was rooted each time. I often called them and they would just send me another. The buttons kept going bad on my phones. Bad luck I guess.
It uses the mic at the bottom of the phone (same one for phone calls) so make sure you're not covering that up. And it seems that unless whatever you're recording is close, you'll have issues. There was a post somewhere from someone who contacted HTC and was told it was due to the noise cancelling software
Well at least if its software related maybe it can be fixed in the first update. It's a shame to have such great video quality with such horrendous sound.

ignore what I posted, I am tired and that was stupid lol.
hello, I am running the current public release at the time of this post(v1.1). I have a Jabra SP700 bluetooth FM speaker for my car. I am uncertain if this is a fault of the rom or the hardware of my bluetooth speaker. I am leaning more towards the bluetooth but I figured I would ask the community.
I play music through this to my car stereo. Frequently the bluetooth drops the audio connection at random times. The phone and speaker say the X2 is connected, but the audio ceases. Within a minute the sound will play through the phone speaker not the bluetooth. Then the bluetooth will say "disconnected" and begin searching to reconnect. My X2 will state the bluetooth is still connected. In order for me to get the phone connected, I need to power off the bluetooth then disable and reenable bluetooth on the X2.
I believe this has happened with previous versions, ive been using eclipse since it started. Although I cannot remember if it works correctly with the bluetooth bone stock.
I am leaning towards the bluetooth since the bluetooth is about 2 years old now...but I was wondering if anybody used a similar bluetooth piece and experienced similar issues. Thanks!!
Ok guys. Let's try this thread over.
Anyone want to help this gentleman? We're not going to argue or derail. If you can't help this guy, don't respond.
OP, search while you wait for an answer.
There is a known issue with the bluetooth function on 1.1
I had heard people saying that with the newest ((1.2rc3)) that the issue had been fixed.
I don't use bluetooth do I cannot confirm but that might be the issue
I didn't think that older BTdevices would become "obsolete" . I thought any newer phones that support bluetooth would encompass all older BTdevices not exclude them. I can see an older phone not connecting to newer bluetooth but not older bluetooth not connect to newer phone.
Nitro tweeted that the new eclipse final should be out tomorrow. Hr has known about the bluetooth bug for a while so I am sure it was a priority fix.
It is possible tho that there is something faulty with your bluetooth device. Have you tried contacting the manufacturers of it to see if that is a known problem with that device? They may be able to help troubleshoot it also.
Thanks ash. As usual you are helpful and nice the speaker is way out of warranty. Ive owned it for 2 years. The battery os startong to go too. I never doubted the compatibility of the speaker...just the performance. It has acted odd in the past. I did not notice an issue initially with the X2. Since it started acting up i was pretty sure it was the bluetooth just showing its age and starting to malfunction. Well at least i do not have to buy anothee speaker just yet

Even if it is out pf warranty they may be the type of company who is willing to repair or help with problems just to keep your loyalty to their products. Who knows you may be able to talk them into a rebate on new product or a coupon or something . Might be worth a shot. Just be site you tell them you promote the product to people you know and in forums you post in. I have been looking for either a wired or bluetooth speaker for my x2 and not sure what to go with. . I saw one in the VZW store I
that looked nice but $199 is a bit steep for a speaker for me lol
And it seems like any other speaker I find (wired or bluetooth) is labeled do I ipod /iphone etc... im thinking the wired would work okay((headphones jack type)) but am not willing to shell out the 50$ that ill only get back in store credit for opened electronic in a store I barely shop at lol. Im sure ill find something sometime and ur post introduced me to a different one to look into. Curious if new eclipse final will fix your problems. Good luck.
Its odd that it will work for a while and then cut off. Wonder if it may be the "receiver " in the device not working correctly. Maybe something wiggled loose. Might be worth taking it apart((if possible) and checking where things connect to each other it giving it a wipe down and clean it up. Maybe dirt is interfering with something inside due to its age.
Or IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT. YOU USED IT TO MUCH FOR WHAT IT WAS DESIGNED FOR AND IT IS DEAD NOW ...lol j/k...im sure something can be done to fix it if it isn't eclipse that is causing the problem. ..its just a matter of is it worth the time to fix or buy a new one..
It is all my fault!!!! Haha. Well that is an idea....maybe i will try. If i can make a suggestion, the droid roadster is pretty cool. Works well and is user friendly! I tested it for a while and liked it.

I have a bluetooth earpiece that I use with my old Razr and it works fine with my DX2 so I don't think age has much to do with compatibility. Wear and tear probably plays more of a factor.
I do pair my DX2 with my Touchpad (WebOS, not when booted in CM7) and I can make calls great on the TP but because the default bluetooth.dun is missing from Eclipse I can send sms with my TP. Not an issue but something to consider if you are shopping and comparing specs to see if you nifty new devices will work with your phone. The devs pull out the blur and bloat because that is what we want but it can change how devices talk to each other.
I have a set of moto rokr hd headphones that I use all the time and I have had this exact same issue with eclipse. The phone still says it has a connection but no audio is playing through my headphones. The only way to correct the issue is to turn off the headphones and turn off bluetooth on the phone and restart them both. It will happen completely at random times. Sometimes I will use them for a couple hours before it hours, but sometimes only 15 min. Its def eclipse, I don't think moto headphones have a compatability issue with a moto phone
Ok, i'm sure i'm not the only one having this issue. I'm stock and currently on the latest OTA and for some reason my phone likes to reset itself to max volume. I can almost always reproduce it with having headphones plugged in, playing a a song and when i open my dialer, it goes max volume. Its a persistent issue and i was wondering if anyone has had these similar issues and or possible knows of a fix? if its a known bug, then i guess i'll have to find a work around till another update is released . At the moment, i'm using Audio Manager to keep the volumes from changing again. I tried to recreate the issue again with the above process and it sounded like it was about to jump up then came back down so its working for now...just wish it worked properly is all. Anyone with this happening to them too?
Update: Ok, so i'm noticing when i start to have issues...i have my headphones plugged in and the beats app shows a notification...but beats is off when i check settings... possibility?
Update 2: Turning off beats and trying to recreate the issue no longer happens. guess its beats after all. guess i'll run without it for now. if its just me having issues and not anyone else, i'd appreciate hearing it from you guys to know what my next step should be thanks again guys!
Update 3: Damn it...went in with high hopes....still went to max volume when i went into the dialer....just didnt make my ears bleed since beats was off... i'm out of ideas...i wait for your responses....
Update 4: So i have not been able to stop looking for information and i found some other posts that helped. Alot of people were having issues with Tango. No problems now after uninstall! Hope this helps anyone that was having issues. Sorry if this was annoying >.< Now i know... (if it helped you, at least some good came out of it)
I've had the same issue on both mine and my wife's DNAs. We haven't used headphones with them though, so I don't think that's the problem. I have searched all over the net for tips and this is the first one that seems to work. Thanks!
yup...
I'm experiencing the same problem... Know what you mean about making your ears bleed. I use beats by Dre ear buds. Happened on my first DNA more frequently. I had it replaced after it was stolen. Didn't happen on the new one for weeks, thought I was in the clear. Will try uninstalling tango...
I would believe the idea about Tango. I used to have this problem all the time. I don't have Tango now and I haven't had the problem in a long time. Never knew or thought about Tango being the culprit. Thanks I will never go back and download it now.
i was looking for a way to save money and not change my upgrade date. I bought this phone in hopes of bettering my services. When i bought it off craigslist for a cheaper than the posted price, i thought "there lose is my gain" but I was sadly mistaken.
the phone would not make any noise. Not threw the headphone port and not through ether of the speakers (ear piece and speaker on the back)
i have rooted this phone in hopes to install another kernel to fix the drivers but have not done much because of my 1st and 2nd try being to no use.
I'm just looking to make it work!
The sound does not work. Is this a problem that has been hear of on this or other devices?
What else might it be or with do could i do to fix it?
Guys, I REALLY need some help here and I'm desperate. I'll give you some background info here. About 3 months ago I bought a used Transformer Prime, at the time I bought it I didn't realize it had CM9 on it, I didn't check out the tablet out enough. Now I'm not into rooting or flashing ROM's AT ALL...I couldn't care less about this stuff, just give me a product that works in stock form and I'll be happy. Now here's the problem, the speaker sounds like complete ass. I don't know if it's a hardware issue or if it's just an issue with CM9. Has anyone experienced an issue like that with flashing a ROM? I gave the tablet to a friend because "he knows everything" and jerked me around for 3 months with it, didn't even touch it so I'm on my own. I just don't want to go through the hassle of replacing a speaker that might now be damaged when it's a software problem.
I guess I need to know if it's possible that it's a software issue. The speaker volume is extremely low and very muddled. I have a feeling it's the speaker but I don't know. I don't know about enough of this stuff and no one wants to touch a tablet, for some reason if it was a phone the shops around here would be happy to help.
I might just sell this thing and take a huge loss and never cheap out on buying a used product.
Thanks guys.
