Droid 2 Gingerbread 2.3.3 Update-ITS HORRIBLE

I am so frustrated with this update for many reasons...
ONE: I didn't have a choice to update or not.
TWO: I can no longer select multiple contacts to send/Fwd a text message. The stupid phone says "No suggestions yet. After I have used the phone a little more, I will find suggestions here that will give me instant access to the people I message the most." THIS IS A BUNCH OF CRAP! I don't want suggestions that people that I message the most! I WANT MY CONTACT LIST BACK! I should be able to get my whole list so I can choose who I want to send/fwd the message to!
THREE: The battery is HORRIBLE! I could go two days or longer(depending how often I used it) without charging it. Now I'm lucky if I can go a whole day without charging it. I have to take my charger with me everywhere I go and pray there is an outlet where I'm going.
FOUR: My phone now freezes, shuts itself off, and toggling through the screens are so much slower.
PLEASE GIVE ME MY OLD PHONE BACK! I USE TO LOVE MY DROID 2.

According to some at the motorola forum's. Verizon has now made the update optional. Would like to know if this is true has anybody else who's phone has not been updated yet had the option to decline this so called update?

  • HT201442 my phone was in the middle of updating its software and then suddenly switched off and ive tried to reset it but the itunes symbol appears, I've tried to connect it to itunes but it says it needs to be restored as it is on repair mode.

    My Iphone4S was in the middle of updating its latest software then suddenly it switched off, it hasnt turned on since and I've tried to reset it but only the apple sign appears then the plug into ittnes symbol. I've tried to plug it into itunes but it says my phone is on repair mode which is why it needs to be restored first in order to connect to itunes. I have also then tried to restore it but the error sign appears.

  • Droid Razr M Battery after KitKat Update

    I recently updated my Droid Razr M with the KitKat update when prompted.  Battery life went from not needing to be charged for well over a day, to draining from 100% before the work day ended with light use. 
    I contacted Verizon and humored them and did the "battery trouble shooting" things with them, even though it appears to be a well known issue.  When the troubleshooting had no effect after a few days, we did a factory reset, which also didn't help.  I ended up getting a new phone because I had extended warranty coverage. 
    When I got the new phone, the battery was a dream, just like old times, after 2 days the system prompted me to do the KitKat update, which I did against my better judgement. 
    Meanwhile my husband also did the KitKat update on his Droid Razr M and started experiencing virtually the same battery problems.  Now both of our batteries drain about 50% faster than they did before the update. 
    My question is, if this is a known issue with Verizon, why bother treating it like user error?  It also seems like to "resolve the battery problem" (which they don't acknowledge is a direct product of the update) they ask users to basically not use their phone normally, but limit their usage to get more battery life, which isn't a solution at all. Is there an actual solution related the the problem (the KitKat update) that I can use to extend battery life on my phone?  Or should we both call and request replacement phones since the malfunction is not due to any sort of user error?

    I'm sorry to hear about the sudden trouble with your battery on the Razr M! Let's check into our options to resolve this. Were any new applications added to the phone recently? Does this continue if you place the device into Safe Mode for 24 hours? Here's how: http://vz.to/LZzdS9

  • When ever i click a picture in photo booth it does not automatically update its content is this a bug or i don't know how to do it?

    when ever i click a picture in photo booth it does not automatically update its content is this a bug or i don't know how to do it?
    whenever you click a picture in photobooth you have to manually insert it one by one in iphoto
    i want to know is there any other option in iphoto which can do this type of thing(adding pictures automatically to iphoto )
    so that i do not have to do it manually

    Once you take the photo with Photo Booth, select the photo in the tray at the bottom and click on the iPhoto button just abouve and to the left:
         Click to view full size
    That will import the photo into iPhoto automatically.  But PB does not import any and all photo taken into iPhoto automatically.  That choice is left to the user.

  • How do I stop a time capsule wanting to update its firmware?

    Ive updated my firmware twice and both times I've had to revert back to version 7.5.1 (the version the capsule came fitted with) as the updates have either slowed down its wireless speed or it constantly disconnected and reconnected giving me an annoying warning every couple of minutes to tell me so.  It's now flashing orange and 'reporting problems' wanting to update its firmware.  How do I prevent the time capsule from wanting to update to a version of the software that doesn't work?

    This is one of those hard to find menus.. and it will still not prevent it occasionally requesting updates.. and you might have to reboot it occasionally.
    Open airport utility and open the manual setup. In the spotlight box (is that what it is called), in the top right corner which has find a setting.. type updates.
    A menu called options pops up.. and you can set it to forget. Check for firmware updates, uncheck.. !!

  • I got my iPhone 5 s almost a month ago and updated its iOS but from there on I started having problems, the ph sometimes doesn't respond at all to the touch or apps start to open on their own very rapidly and this continues till it can go no further!

    I got my iPhone 5 almost a month ago and updated its iOS but from there on I started having problems, the ph sometimes doesn't respond at all to the touch or apps start to open on their own very rapidly and this continues till it can go no further!

    First steps in troubleshooting:
    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
    Then reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go. (No data loss)

    <Email Edited by Host>

    Basic troubleshooting steps outline in the manual are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new.  Try each of these in order until the problem is resolved.  If you've been through all these steps and the trouble persists, you'll need to bring your phone to Apple for evaluation.  Be sure to make an appointment first at the Genius Bar so you won't have a long wait.

  • How does BDB update its secondary index?

    I am asking how does Berkeley DB update its secondary index?
    For example, in a BDB table with key value pair ``<k,v1>``, the index database would have reversed pair like ``<v1,k>``. Upon an insert (or essentially an update) ``<k,v2>``, base table record ``<k,v1>`` should be overwritten to ``<k,v2>``.
    But how would BDB deal with ``<v1,k>`` in the index table? Will it delete it immediately?

    Hi,
    As long as you correctly open the primary database and secondary index database, and associate the secondary index database with the primary, any update on the primary database will be reflected in the secondary index.
    For more information, please refer to Reference Guide for Berkeley DB -> Chapter 3.  Access Method Operations -> Secondary Indexes section.
    Regards,
    Cindy Zeng

    You can't do anything. You have encountered the activation lock. Unless you have some sort of contact with the previous owner you have bought a very expensive paper weight.
    You can find out more about activation lock from Apple's site here: Find My iPhone Activation Lock - Apple Support
