Droid 3 Cell Standby Battery Issue - Call Verizon and let them know you're having a problem.

At this time, the cell standby battery problem is not considered a known issue despite it being a very serious problem for every Droid 3 owner I've spoken with so far. If you are experiencing this or any other problem, report it and encourage everyone you know to report it.
They are working on a patch for the camera because a lot of people complained, the only way they will fix this issue is if you call and complain - make sure they are aware of the problem. Make sure Motorola is aware of the problem.

Mine reboots off and on after update but I told them. And when I'm charging it does shut off. I have the new update. After it does this then when I go into a Verizon app like NFL mobile I have to log in to my Verizon profile before I can use the app. Ugh. Does it make u sign in to if my Verizon profile after u turn the phone on as well as go into say NFL mobile or a Verizon owned app like media manager just when u start the app on. Everytime the phone turns off I have to sign in if I want to open one of these apps.

Hi there JByrd,
Let's take a closer look into this. What plan are you currently on? If you are on the More Everything plan, then you shouldn't have to do anything additional. If you are on the Nationwide plan it is an additional $20 a month for 2 GB of data. Let us know what plan you have. Thanks!

Hey Erin how about you confirm to Elector and others that you HAVE to pay for tethering on Nationwide plans and that if you are using a 3rd tethering app to bypass paying you are violating the terms of service. They don't seem to believe me.

Currently have been using my ipad 2 to pull up emails from my verizon. Last week verizon updated to my Verizon 2.0 and I can not open my emails or scroll down on my emails. Called verizon and Apple and no one could help me open or access my mobile emails

Currently have been using my ipad 2 to open and read my emails from Verizon.
Last week Verizon upgraded to My Verizon 2.0 and it is not compatable with the ipad 2.
I can't open my emails or scroll down to read them. I called Verizon and Apple and no one can help me..
Has anyone experienced this same issue on their ipad?
Frustrated verizon ipad user.

You can also go to https://www22.verizon.com/ForYourHome/VZRepair/vziha/Service.aspx?ihaweb=EmailSe tup
and it gives you a step by step on adding your account. However don't use the server port number they give you because it does not work. I followed the same steps without changing the number and it worked.
The problem I have is that I can not see the folders I created on my Verizon email account, when I open it on my iPad. I have called Verizon & gone to the Apple store and neither had an answer except to say it was the other's problem.
Can any one help?

Verizon activation failure DON"T LET THEM TELL YOU TO RESET THE ENTIRE IPAD

Bought my iPad2 in the Verizon store Friday and had some trouble getting it activated. It looked like it probably activated but I had a lot of failures getting there where it kept telling me information was invalid. But the data network wasn't working some hours later.
I called Verizon and they said the account had not been set up properly, closed the old account, and walked me through setting up new account through the iPad. About 5 hours later I got a popup on the iPad that said there was a problem with the data service and it had been deactivated. When I tried to log into the the account from the iPad's cellular data screen in settings, I got a message that said the account information on your iPad is no longer valid.
Upon further investigatio, the iPad still had the first number I had been given, not the new cellular number associated with my data plan.
Called Verizon and their tech support person told me that the only solution to clear the old number out and get the cellular data service to work was to reset the entire iPad (erase everything), set up a new account, and re-sync the device to get all my data back on. Having had a lot of trouble getting data transferred from my iPad 1st gen to this one I was very reluctant to do that.
So I tried a few things myself. First I settings : general : reset : reset network settings. No help.
Then I tried settings : general : reset : subscriber services : reprovision account. Bingo. When I went back to the cellular data screen and logged in, it synced up with my new account and the cellular data service worked.
Verizon insisted very firmly that there was no option to reset just the data plan information when clearly that is built right in to the settings, and that resetting the entire device (erasing everything) was required.
DON'T DO IT!!

This helped me. Worked perfectly.

I'm in trouble, my iPod Touch is giving 4th shock when recharge and the battery does not last any more. who knows or has a similar problem, please help me. Note: all this after I downloaded the new version OS5.

I'm in trouble, my iPod Touch is giving 4th shock when recharge and the battery does not last any more. who knows or has a similar problem, please help me. Note: all this after I downloaded the new version OS5.

I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store because of the shock issue. I doubt it was caused by the update.

Dropped phone in water phone was working put it in rice for 2 days screen was black but i could still call people and hear them whats wrong with it

I dropped my iPhone 4 in water put it in rice and turned it off for 2 says then when i turned it on it was black but i could use voice control to call people and hear them perfectly and they could hear me but i couldn't see anything on my screen. Whats wrong with it?

If you can backup your phone before using the below option then I would back it up and use the out of warranty option:
Out-of-warranty* cost:
iPhone 5s, iPhone 5c, iPhone 5: $269
iPhone 4s: $199
iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 3G, Original iPhone: $149
Plus a $6.95 shipping fee. Fees are in USD and exclude local tax.
*Accidental damage isn’t covered under the Apple One Year Limited Warranty.
If you have important data that is still on the phone and you do not have a backup, and unable to do a backup, then try what I described earlier because the geniuses at the bar WILL NOT recover your data. Seeing that my technique worked for me, I will stand by my earlier response (the one that was removed).
Also, I would use silica/desiccant packs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ly-o7sAsFtI over rice any day.

[A1] [ICS] Cell standby battery drain issue (again)

This issue was brought up not long after the A1 was originally released. The 'Cell standby' funtion was taking most of the power. The workaround in stock GB was to put the device into airplane mode, as you could still then have Wifi on.
However, with the new ICS builds, even with airplane mode on, cell standby does not appear to stop. Battery life appears to be poorer as a result (though have no scientific evidence to prove it, though it feels slightly worse than stock GB, and much worse than CM7).
Anyone else feeling the same, or managed any workarounds?

Hi
Welcome To Lenovo Community
You may try turn on Airplane mode to save battery
Hope This Helps
Cheers!!!

Droid incredible questions: extended battery, issues, battery charging phenomenon, apps

hi. im considering the droid incredible as a possible droid i want to purchase for myself when my contract runs out with my other service provider. ive been researching alot about it and the droid x (another choice) and wanted to ask about some new things that have come up that i would like to know more about.
1) lately ive been noticing more and more about these extended batteries for the droid incredible that take it from the 1300 mah to 2150 or this big one, the 3500. the 2150 is on the verizon website and stuff while the others are from amazon and other websties. first of all is this safe to have on a phone like this? does having a bigger battery and somethign go wrong with teh phone due to it ruin the warranty or something (thats assuming im using the proper extended battery from verizon store)? is getting a extended battery from another company or store a bad idea, and if so why?
and if any more information about the extended batteries that you could share with me would be great also.
2) have there been any great issues about the droid incredible that is outside the normal (glithces, restarts, and so forth) that one should consider?
3) there has been something on the internet about a different way of charging the phone so to get better battery life out of it. i think it goes charging it then unplug the phone then turn off phone then plug back in for 20 mins then finally phone charged. is that really necessary or something? is that a problem for the phone right now?
and lastly
4) does the droid incredible get the same kind of apps all the other phones do or does it get special ones just for it?
thanks for your help

1. We recommend the extended batteries that we offer, as those batteries are quality tested and come with a manufacturers warranty. We do not recommend batteries from third party vendors, because unapproved batteries may damage the device and can void the manufacturer's warranty. If the battery is offered by HTC and a supported product, you can check with the manufacturer to see if it would be covered with the Manufacturer's Warranty. The Extended 2150mAh battery is the battery that we recommend. That battery will not affect the Manufacturer's Warranty. It actually comes with a 1 year manufacturers warranty on it. The 2150mAh battery is basically the same battery, as the standard battery, it just has a lower the battery voltage discharge over a set time interval making it last longer.
2. Issues with the HTC Droid Incredible are pretty much like any Smartphone device, there are problems that come up, but those are usually fixed with updates. Because you are getting a later build of the device, it is unlikely that you would encounter any significant issues with the device.
3. There is no need to charge the battery in any other way than the recommended way. Newer batteries are more resistant to overcharging and will charge quickly.
4. The HTC Droid Incredible would have access to the Android Market Place. It would have access to over 10,000 applications on the Android Market.

My mom was able to call verizon and then was able to stop my phone from working with the network. The phone itself works but it cannot send messages or use the data. How can i "turn it back on"?

She called some number and stopped it from using the network. How can i make it work again?

>Posted edited to remove instructions that could lead to a fraudulent act< But if she's paying the bills, she's going to see that you turned it back on and I'm guessing you're probably going to get into even bigger trouble (especially if you managed to impersonate her or speak on her behalf). Best bet, talk to your mom about what she wants from you in order to get it turned back on.
Good luck!

Calling Verizon and Answers Here are Different RE: Selling iPhone 5s

I read other discussions here in which the person upgraded their phone to the new 5s. Whatever the reason, they want to sell the iPhone 5s.
The question, does the 5s need to be activated on the line from which it was upgraded before it can be sold or can it be sold without activating?
The answer here says the phone needs to be activated on the line from which it was upgraded and then it can be sold but a new SIM will need to be provided. I saw a couple of discussions stating this.
I called VerizonWireless twice and two different agents said, there is no need to activate the phone first.
So who is correct? I upgraded and accepted the 2 year contracts just so i could get the new iPhone 5s and sell them (probably on eBay). I don't want the purchaser to have any issues activating the phone.
I need an official answer as keeping the phone sealed will probably get me more money.

I just realized what is causing the behavior in item 3.
If i am in portrait, I go to Mail, and look at headers in an inbox Then i turn to landscape, it goes to a combo view of headers plus message on the right. However, if i turn back to portrait, it doesn't turn back to headers; it turns back to the last message i viewed. This is inconsistent with my expectations which is to go back to what i was looking at last time i was in portrait orientation.

Everything on my macbook 5.1 was erased and then the person who erased it could not find start up disc to reinstall. i called apple and gave them the serial number and they sent me leopard os 10.5 which is what originally came with the computer. not work

i was given a macbook 5.1 by my mom, being nice, she erased everything on it, but then could not find the original start up disc. i called apple and had the serial number and said that leopard 10.5 was the operating system that orginally came with it, so i bought it. when i got it,i turned on computer, put in dvd, and immediately shut it off, then turned it back on while pressing letter c. (they told me to do this) i can hear the disc turning but alls i get is blank screen then it shuts down, and restarts. nothing ever shows up on the screen. did i get a wrong disc? should there be something different than just the mac os x leopard 10.5 to get this computer to work again?? thanks for your help!

It means what it says. The "computer person" formatted it wrongly/ unsuitably. it needs to be formatted again.

Tough question: Can I purchase an off-contract iPhone 5 from Verizon and let my brother use it in Europe?

I have an iPhone 4S with Verizon, and I wanted to know if it would be possible for me to buy an iPhone 5 for the off-contract price just as if I was purchasing it for myself, and then ship it to my brother in Austria and let him use it there on the GSM network.
The reason I think this might be possible is because the GSM part of the Verizon iPhone 5 comes unlocked out of the box (or so I've been told)
One obstacle that might stand in the way is if I have to activate the iPhone 5 with Verizon before I send it to him.
Let me know if this would be possible.

If it is truly unlocked (versus the sim slot being unlocked), then yes you would be able to do this. I have no way of actually verifying if my VZW iPhone 5 is truly unlocked (I don't know of a local iPhone 5 AT&T customer to use their sim to see if my phone will work) but maybe someone on here has been able to verify this further than just what some articles state. Otherwise, if it's just the sim slot being unlocked then you would need to keep the phone active on VZW and your brother can use simcards on Europe to roam instead of paying the VZW roaming charges.

TS1398 My iPhone 5 will not connect to my wifi. I called Verizon and it is not thir issue because my iPad can connect. Sometimes I can get my phone to connect to my wifi if I choose "other" as the network, go to "WPA" &type password

My iPhone5 will not connect to my home wifi. I called my Internet provider and they said it is not their problem b/c my iPad and computer will connect. Sometimes I can get it to connect for a few minutes by choosing "other" network and then choosing "WPA" security and typing in my pass code. Other tomes it will spontaneously connect to my wifi. Very frustrating! Any ideas?

Hey ebe301,
Sorry to hear about your troubles with your PC. If you are not seeing your iPhone on your computer, then take a look at the link below to walk you through getting that working again. It will have you verify that drivers are installed and working as well as any third party software that may be causing conflicts.

I have an iPad 4 generation and just purchased my first apple cell phone. I am having problems figuring out how to sync the 2. I called Verizon and because my iPad isn't using the 4G it can (I just haven't needed to use it) the tech person can't do it.

I have an iPad 4 generation 4G and just purchased my first iPhone an Apple 5s. I need help synching the two. I have never needed to use the 4G Verizon option so Versizon tech said they can't do it and Apple needs to. But I no longer have Applecare and it doesn't yet recogniz my Applecare with my new phone (new yesterday). Anyone know the steps so I can sync the two and sync the Clouds then? Thanks

You cannot sync the two devices together. You can keep the two devices in sync by using iCloud and some of the available settings on both devices. Go to Settings>iCloud and you can turn on Reminders , Calendars, Notes, Safari Bookmarks, Contacts, Photo Stream, Mail, Keychain, etc.
You can go to Settings>iTunes and App Store>Automatic Downloads and turn on apps, songs, books and updates to keep all of those items in sync as well.
But why don't you explain exactly what you mean by syncing the two devices? What do you hope to accomplish?

I can receive calls but cannot make calls. Can't even call Verizon and press numbers for help

No one in my house can make outgoing phone calls. We can receive phone calls but if we make a phone call they cannot hear us. We can hear them.
HELP

We can certainly check this service issue for you dukeclan! What is your ZIP code? Is data or text messaging impacted as well?
