DTMF tone on Motorola Droid Bionic

One adjustment our current smartphone doesn't have that we found it needed in order for better communication with our office's phone system is the ability to adjust the DTMF tone; so, while researching new smartphones, it is something we are looking for. This is not listed in the User Guide for the Motorola Droid Bionic so I chatted with Verizon and was told that since this is such a new phone, it should be capable of this. I then emailed Motorola, they replied that the DTMF is not adjustable on this phone. Have any Droid Bionic users found this to be an issue?
(Note that we are also looking at Motorola Droid Razr where I posted the same question.)

Hello CF-Robin,
I'm glad that you inquired about the DTMF tone. I've had people asked me about this in person and I think that now is a great time to share how to adjust this functionality. The Motorola Droid Bionic's DTMF tone can be adjusted within the device settings. I have the path noted below on how to reach this setting on the Bionic.
From the main screen, touch menu tab.
Touch Settings.
Touch Call Settings.
Touch DTMF Tones.
Select from Normal or Long.
For the DTMF setting, there are only two choices, normal and long. Both selection works well with most automated phone systems. I encourage you to test both settings with your company's phone system to ensure that they are working together. Hope this helps!
Thank you...

Motorola Droid Bionic won't turn on

My droid bionic died overnight. It was charging via USB from my computer as usual and now it won't turn on. It does nothing when not plugged into the USB charger and shows a white light in the upper right when it is plugged into the charger.

Try removing the battery for a few minutes, then reinserting and charging with the wall charger.

Alarm tones on Motorola Droid Razr

I have the new update and love it. I have not had any problems with it. I just need help setting my alarm tones, after the update it changed the tones I could choose. I like the one I had, but I dont know how to change it. Very alarming was the alarm tone name. I go to alarm and timers, choose alarms, open my alarm, choose sound, it brings up a limited list. I want to know how to access the full list. If anyone could help me with this matter I would be very happy. Regular alarms do not wake me and right now I am relying on my old Samsung charge to wake me up. Very alarming is a nice tone for me. Thanks in advance

Automating DTMF tone sending

I want to set up my phone (Nokia 3100) to dial a number and when the distant phone answers for my phone to then send a DTMF sequence. Can this be automated to avoid having to separately send the DTMF sequence when you hear that the the distant phone has answered?

What is the best way to connect my droid bionic to my mac book pro so i can access my photos

Stories about early upgrades for the Droid Bionic.

Hello,
I have been searching for stories about the Bionic for a while, and I have seen a couple pop up that say Verizon is offering early upgrades to *SOME* customers.
http://www.gizmocrunch.com/mobile/8185--verizon-iphone-5-htc-vigor-nexus-prime-motorola-droid-bionic
I have been a customer of Verizon for a little less than two years. I am still using the OG Droid, and it is starting to bogg down quite a bit and freeze/crash randomly, so getting a new phone is one of the top things on my list. My upgrade discount is up on 10/25/11, but seeing that the Droid Bionic is going to come out Sept 8th (little more than a week), and seeing that Verizon is offering early upgrades to certain people, I was wondering who exactly GETS these early discounts. Reading the articles apparantly Verizon sent emails out to some people, but I haven't gotten anything about it.
So are these articles correct? If so, who exactly CAN get the discount? And will I be able to get the phone when it comes out?

This promotion, although recently released, doesn't necessarily pertain to the Droid Bionic alone. Verizon sent out thousands of e-mails to customers that have never owned a smart phone before and fit various other criteria. The promotion allows you to upgrade from a basic phone to a smart phone early if you wish to do so. The promotion also entitles the customer to a $100 rebate in the form of a Visa gift card if they mail in their old basic phone as well. Hope this helps.

Droid Bionic text messages going to wrong people

I have had my Droid Bionic for several months now. It is not rooted and I don't download tons of apps on my phone. I don't use netflix to watch movies or download music. The apps I have are mainly to help me with work. So I'm not app happy just downloading things non stop. This is why I'm confused and irritated. My Bionic has started sending text messages to the wrong people! I had this issue with my Droid X which is why I switched to the Bionic, hoping that after all these years of making smart phones motorola, google and verizon would put a phone out there that actually works like it's supposed to. How much practice do these phone companies need to get their OS right? I don't mind paying a lot of money for something that will make my life a little easier but I get very irritated paying a lot of money for something that doesn't work the way it's supposed to...and at the most inappropriate times. The Bionic has gone from helping to adding to my daily hassles. Is anyone else having issues with text messages going to the wrong people on their Bionics? Have you found a way to fix it? I'm also getting error messages that just started about a week ago...com.motorola.main.service has stopped and then a option to forceclose. The tech support person at Verizon sounded like he had never seen a smart phone before and gave me the Verizon standard technical reply..."do a factory reset". I should not have to reset anything on a NEW Phone! Why don't you fix these problems Google, Motorola and Verizon and in a timely manner?! I know for a fact if I didn't pay for my phone as promised or pay my bill as promised I would suffer the consequences immediately! You cell phone companies are all about getting your money and leaving us customers out here hanging and irritated. If you think my feelings are misguided then feel free to prove me wrong. FIX THESE ISSUES AND FIX THEM IN A TIMELY MANNER! BETTER YET, PUT OUT A PRODUCT THAT WORKS AS PROMISED IN YOUR ADS! TRAIN YOUR TECHS TO ACTUALLY RESOLVE ISSUES INSTEAD OF RECITING THEIR FAVORITE MOTO "Do a factory reset"! When you do these 3 things I will not feel like someone who has been lied to, robbed, and irritated! I am usually a very positive person but after dealing with issues with 2 expensive phones I'm a little upset. Can anyone help me fix my phone?

Go into your settings, Messages and turn on iMessage. It will then send messages that are iMessages to both your iPad and iPhone. You can also turn off this feature on the iPad if you do not want to receive messages on the iPad.

CF-Robin,
I'm sorry for any misinformation, but the great news is that the Droid Razr does offer an option to adjust the DTMF tone. Simply go into Settings> Call Settings> DTMF Tones> Select Normal or Long. I sure hope that helps make your Razr experience even more enjoyable!
Thank you!

I have a Droid Bionice, my 1st Smart phone. An install kept coming up ,I did it and everything has changed. I don't knpw what to do...Help...smart phone...dumb person

I bought a Droid Bionic Smart Phone. I loved it so very much. When I was on it and install kept coming up, over & over. I Don't know what it was called but I did look and it didn't say Verizon anywhere but I assumed w/my Lookout security app it wouldn't let anything bad in. But I downloaded it now my icons are different and on my manage apps I use to have only maybe 20 settings now I have a bunch. and the lil icon looks like a blue square app w/the lil cog looking symbol in it. Everytime I try to delete one thinking it will go back to the way it was it says it will cause problems w/all other settings. And also after the icom it says com.motorola.android.deep it says that on about 20 or 25 after the icon.It won't let me disable any of them.
The very 1st icon on my Apps on ,y Apps setting is the blue symbol that looks like a cog, and it has 32.00KB if I try to disable that because I figure it's the mother of all of them it says in a pop up...Disable built -in app-----If you disable a built in app, other apps may misbehave.? That doesn't sound very professional to me.One even says key chain for the app. I don't know what to do. I did look at it and I assumed when it popped up it was a legit thing. I didnt know you had to beware of something that was a pop up on the page.
I don't know if it's a Gingerbread or Ice Cream thing, I just know when I go to my settings it has overtaken 3/4th of my apps. And on most of them it doesny even offer me the chance or choice to disable it. Please somebody help me. I am so new to this. I loved my phone before now it's taken Over everything. I am scared if I run some of the things I see it says on my settings app it runs my phone,it says for instance:
Permission
This App can access the following on your phone
*YOUR LOCATION
coarse (network-based) location,fine (GPS) location
*SYSTEM TOOLS
modify global system settings
STORAGE
SYNC SERVICE
I dont know what any of this is and it says if I stop of close any of it , it will cause the app to fail.
How can I tell what I have downloaded as far as this whole montrosity....SO I can study it and read up what to do. I do't want to lodr my pictures or my pictures on my gallery/ I am afraid I have really screwed it up good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I THANK ANYBODY THAT CAN HELP ME IN ADVANCE....

Droid Bionic 4.04 update. SMS no longer works and other issues

Performed the 4.04 update yesterday (Made my phone at a ridiculously hot temperature and drained my battery from 90% to 5% within 1:30 , great thing to start downloading without a prompt). Ever since the update my text messages will not load at all. I have tried with the default application as well as Handscent SMS. The default text messaging application will just continue to show that it is "loading" and with an apple style while circle, while handscent will just have a black screen then crash after awhile. If I receive an incoming text message it does not show at all. (Handscent will normally create a popup message).
Also when I turn the screen on from being asleep, sometimes the touch screen will not work, I will either need to wait a few minutes to turn the screen off then on again or restart the phone entirely.
Anyone know a work around where I would not have to reinstall the OS again?
Please let me know if you guys need any more information.

Give this a try Guys it should help some b33

Still waiting for Droid Bionic ICS update

Should I be worried if I still haven't received it yet? I always seem to get these things late. I am not even sure I received the update from the summer at all.

I'm having the same problem. It keeps saying there's no update available whereas others already updated their phones. I went on Verizon website and it says update coming soon. I was a little confused.
Software Update: DROID BIONIC by Motorola - Coming Soon!

Droid Bionic incorrectly listed as HTC device on "Supported Devices" web page

At http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/mobile/platforms/ the Droid Bionic is incorrectly listed as an HTC device.
The Droid Bionic is a MOTOROLA device. :)
I attempted to submit feedback about this to Mozilla/Firefox but my feedback was rejected because the message contained a URL.
Will someone (who can) please notify the Mobile Firefox webmaster about this?
Thanks!

Thanks for letting us know. I've passed this information on the the correct people who will be able to fix this.
