How many do not like the new update for the droid maxx? How do you unupdate your phone?

The alarm clock is harder to manage. Before it was nice neat simple and easily readable. I have 4 alarms I use. I change the times around sometimes and I used to be able to see them all. I pick the one I want. Quick 2 sec change and done.
Now its large and harder to read. Go into the Alarm and you have to go around. I used to just type the hr I want or scroll up.
After selecting an alarm. When I was done. I could easily select the next one I wanted because It would revert back to neat simple view. Not now. That alarm takes up the whole screen.
When unlocking the screen I used to be able to go left to get straight to the phone. Go down for a text. Not anymore.
When in a call and I changed apps. I could go back to the phone by selecting the phone pic. The dial pad would be right there. Switch the speaker on and off.
Now once I switch out from phone and I can't get back to the dial pad.
From home screen scroll left to bring up
ringtone.
wifi
bluetooth and so on.
I select the on off for wifi in 1 second. Nope. Have to go into the option and change it.
It updated my google maps. I don't like the new one and I can't change it back to the original. On the original I used to be and to look at different options to my routing. Now thats not possible.
Hasn't any business ever heard of the term.
IF IT AINT BROKE DON'T FIX IT.

Did the issues start right after the software update?
Umm. Yeah. thats usually what happens when you update something. Things change.
I didn't say I didn't want my phone to be improved to work faster.
I did however say I didn't want it completely changed.
The look of it alone causes me headaches.
I don't want you to fix any issues other than getting rid of the update. Thats it. I will be, along with everyone else, will be happy when someone does something to get rid off this ugly looking, update.
Its simple. I just don't want the new look.
If I wanted it to look the way it does now. I would have gone to the store and bought a phone that has this look.
I like the way it was.
I did a factory reset. It does not do anything except remove the settings app and other info.
Then when the phone turned on. It started updating every single app I owned. Its trying to run up my bill.
Let me do this when I am using wifi or something. Not on my service.
Before anyone answers about this.
Go to app store hit stop. Change the settings auto update off.
Didn't work. 10 minutes later while waiting on hold I happen to look at my phone again. It started downloading them all again. I stopped them. Double checked my settings. Made sure auto update was off.
I have a few apps I don't update and they work perfectly fine.
I like them that way.

You should also try the recent app screen/view to switch between apps and the dialer to return to the dialer screen.
Your in a phone call. Go to the home screen. Click the phone button.
3 things come up.
Use touch tone keypad.
Return call in progress.
3rd unimportant for this. I want to see the dialpad.
Option 1. Use touch tone keypad. Select to bring up the dialpad. Ok. Got it.
Option 2. Return to call in progress. Select to ring up the dialpad.....
Hmmm. Option 1 and 2 do exactly the same thing. Now whos bright idea was it to have 2 options in the same menu. To do exactly the same thing.
Why don't we just select the phone and it brings up the dialpad.
Want to add a call.
You could try the recent app screen/view to switch between apps.

  • Last night i was downloading the new update for the Iphone, and after the download was done and trying to install, it errored out.  And now my phone is stuck on the screen with the itunes icon and the USB.

    Last night i was downloading the new update for the Iphone4 on my laptop through Itunes.  After the download was done, it was starting to install, and then an error came up and didnt get a chance to check it.  Now my Iphone is stuck on the screen with the USB pointing to the Itunes Icon and wont do anything else.  Any advice on how to get this fixed, or do i need to go to the Apple store and have them look at it.

  • Has anyone received the new update for the X6?

    has anyone received the new update for the X6 with the updated browser? what is the firmware version?
    Greece Nokia X6 RM-559 v40.0.002

    I agree with Vinimutta!!
    *slide to unlock with digital clock & sms & missed call notification
    *support for homescreeen widgets
    *qwerty keypad in portrait mode
    every single update so far was pathetic attemp to fool us and make us happy.
    there is no change at all from v30,31, and 32. exect the slightly smaller font for text input in v32.
    nokia promises alot in the new update, (browser, smiler and map)
    hope it leaves up to the expectation and include the portrait qwerty,homescreen and lockscreen.
    Why is it so hard to implement?
    slide to unlock and homescreen is already available in c6, and the portrait qwerty is available in 5800.
    its no like we are asking for impossible like continuous autofocus for video recording!!

  • What does the new update for the ipod do?

    I keep looking. I have an Ipod from 2003 20gb. Iv'e never updated the software so I found the updates but I cant find anywhere that states what the updates do for my Ipod Im tired of looking. Please help!

    Hi Jeff,
    I also have an old 20GB i-Pod and I too wanted to know what was in the new version, but like you I couldn't find a list of features or bug fixes or whatever.
    I was happy with the i-Pod and I believe in the old saying "if it ain't broke, don't fix it", however, I also heard that the new i-Pods have on-the-go playlists, which is a feature I would really like. So, long story short, I used the new updater, the i-Pod now runs ver1.5 but there is no on-the-go feature. I'm guessing it's not supported for my old Hardware. As a compensation, though, I swear it sounds a bit better than before - dunno if there is a new decoder algorithm in the update. Haven't really answered your question, I just want to warn you that if you want to update for a particular feature, it might not be there. Apple really should publish a feature list for all versions. Good luck Jeff.

  • Does the new update for ipod touch ( ios 6.1.6 ) restore your device?

    There was a software update that came out a few days ago. A while back I updated my software ( a few month back ) and it restored my ipod, I had 89 apps ( 10 i paid for ) just a few pics and 127 songs - some i paid for.
    So I had to pay for it allllllll again. I don't want to make the same mistake twice.
    Could Someone Give Me Any Advice?
    I know you can back it up to itunes or icloud and that.... but it still restores it!
    If this helps:
    Ipod 4gen 8GB ( Don't ask how i had 89 apps..... i looked on my settings )
    I'm not sure if some Ipod's restore and some not but Just thought I'd give you the info above.
    I don't want anything to do with restoring it!!
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm Just asking if anyone has done it and if there's has restored ----------------------------------------------------------------
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------- Ipod 4gen for ios 6.1.6 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------

    Infrequently a glitch occurs and restoring the iPod is required.
    I do not understand why you had top  pay again previous for iTunes purchases
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store    
    Some countries limit what yo can redownload without having to pay again.
    Transfer iTunes purchases to you computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    Make a backup of your iPod too
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    Note that the iTunes backup does not include any synced media like apps and music.
    The iCloud backup only includes iTunes purchases.

  • I think the new update for the ellipsis 7 killed my tablet, please help?

Ive have tried everything, charging it, factory reset letting it die completely and trying to reset it, everything. Why has this update killed my tablet and can you please help?

    I do NOT like the new update for iphone (7.1). Is there a way to go back? Every time I see a change, I think the old version is better. Especially the phone and caps. Is it possible?

    Sorry... Apple does not support the Downgrading of iOS.

  • After the new update of the latest iOS, I noticed a yellowish color on the sides of my iPhone 5 screen (Top,Down,Left,Right). Does anyone know how to fix this? Thank You.

    After the new update of the latest iOS, I noticed a yellowish color on the sides of my iPhone 5 screen (Top,Down,Left,Right). Does anyone know how to fix this? Thank You.

    It is highly unlikely that any iOS update could cause this.
    Try a restore as new, if the problem persists, take the device to Apple for evaluation.

  • Where is the new update for N95 US Versions?

    Where is the new update for N95-3 and N95-4? i have this two phones and i fell disappoint and mad becuz i bought this expensive cellphone and we have no support from Nokia.. this is no fair we are consumers like any other in the world. And the european model of N95 has a lot of updates and we r exent of the updates and support.. thats no fair my cellphone cost a lot of money and no support? only one update for year?.. my cellphone N95-4 compared to the European model is a garbage. Because the European added many things with update.. like autorotate and improve speed.. im about not to buy another Nokia because we have no support !! Nokia set aside the American market.
    THATS NO FAIR !!

    Actually, it's the American market that set Nokia aside.
    Nokia initially refused to allow network operators to customize their phones' firmware. Consequently, American network operators all but stopped buying Nokia phones. Nokia has since relented and does carry out a certain amount of trade in America now, but they're nowhere near as popular over there as they are elsewhere in the world.
    Add their lower popularity in America to the fact that you all use different frequency bands from the rest of the world, which means a different set of hardware, and you begin to understand why the American market is a bit of a bugbear and why Americanised products are low priority. If American networks followed the same standards as elsewhere in the world you'd all benefit from the same updates.
    Note that this is just personal speculation and not necessarily Nokia's official standpoint. I am not a Nokia employee.

  • Just downloaded Firefox 4. Running Windows XP. Some of the new features are mising such as the new "Firefox Button" and the new location for the bookmarks button. The look is almost like Firefox 3. Why is this happening?

    Hi. I just downloaded Firefox 4. Some of the new features are missing such as the new "Firefox Button" and the new location for the bookmarks button. It almost looks just like Firefox 3. I am using Windows XP on this desktop computer. On my laptop, running Windows Vista, Firefox 4 has all the updates advertised. Why is this happening? How do I fix?

  • I can't download library book through Overdrive Media to my IPod Touch. It won't transfer from Itunes since new update for the icloud

    I've not had a problem before, but since the new update for Itunes, I can't download library books through Overdrive Media to my Ipod touch.  It transfers to Itunes but shows a message on my IPod that it can't sync.

    I don't recall updating recently, but tonight I found I had the same problem.  However, if I plugged my ipod in, it then gave me the option to transfer to just ipod, or library and ipod.  However, that raises other problems, because you know we have to change these over from music to audiobooks.  Also, ITunes is freezing on me, even after doing a fix reinstall.  It looks like it's connecting to the store and I have to end task it.  Also, some freaking crap is going on with my ipod.  I "lost" my audiobook option I had locked to the bottom of my page.  Also, all the other music I had on my ipod is gone, wasn't much as I use this mostly to listen to audiobooks.  But the only music album there is the free U2 one Apple gave out a while back.  So I'm in it even worse than you right now as I have a 2 day trip planned and was adding more books to my selection, to listen while driving.  But try what I told you above.  If it does put it on your ipod, you can delete it and "fix" the info in iTunes, then transfer it back.
