Is motorola and verizon updating android 2.3 os to original droid

Can any verizon rep answer me this?
Can verizon tell motorola to add portable mobile hotspot & tethering, 3d apps launchee . I dont want to root a rom to get this or get app replacement to get these features.

This needs to happen now! This version would have prevented my phone from being hacked. Check out http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-news/129312-mother-all-android-malware-has-arrived-roots-phone-steals-data-opens-backdoor.html
I guess Verizon removed the infected apps on booting your phone but this is a root item and installs a backdoor. I am doing a hard reset and making sure SD card is wiped clean to be safe. 98 emails were sent out from my phone last night. Links were to inappropriate sites. Not sure if malware or virus installed if you clicked on one.

Is there anyway I can get buy a Moto X customized phone? I spent most of the day talking with Motorola and Verizon.. it seems the two companies need to have a chat on how to freakn work together to order this phone online. I feel like a bunch of dementors sucked the life outta me, I need chocolate and alcohol to help me feel better... eeeek!

One thing that I finally had to do when I got my phone on MotoMaker was to buy it outright, after getting an account with Motorola--that way I could get a customized one with 32GB storage. I recall that I could not get it in that size with the usual contract term with Verizon. The Edge option for some reason was not available to me either, don't recall why.
But by buying it through Motorola credit, I could spread the purchase price over 12 months--kind of Edge lite. Then when my contract status changed over to month-to-month instead of the old-fashioned 2 year system, my line charges went down to $15 per month, as it would using the Edge option.

try
Restart iPhone: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears then let both buttons go and wait for the phone to restart.

I am done with Verizon for their inability to update Android in a timely manner. When my contract is up, after 10 years, I am gone.

Verizon,
Nobody.. and I mean NOBODY is buying your crap. You don't update to the latest software in a timely manner. The entire planet has the KitKat update for Android and you don't under the guise of better experience. That is crap, everyone else can do it but you, you are inept.
Additionally, you are the most expensive by far and the guise of biggest network. I really don't care about the biggest network, I use a very small percentage of it so this is no excuse. AND if you are the biggest how come EVERY carrier can beat you on price and get updates out faster?
Your new tiered plans "Family Share" crap.
I do how you still charge me for data, voice, and text.. even though at the end of the day these are all just data packets across your network. I love being charged three times for the same service though.
You want to really be the best, then change your ways.. but I am done waiting around for you.. this contract ends and I am gone.

After 20 yes TWENTY YEARS being with Verizon I to am done with their cell phone business. I have had nothing but problems with my "new" Droid, which I was "steered" to by a tech who told me what I should have not what I chose, my weakness was to still trust the employee had the best interest of their customer at heart. Brewhahaha! Boy what a error that was on MY part. I got a phone that has been defective from the moment I turned it ON.
I first had home service with Verizon for many years...then wifi....then the bundle. Great, all I can say is as this company has grown, they have fallen apart on their customer service and their policies. Their nothing more than yet another CORPORATE mentality company whose bottom line is PROFIT.
My droid arrived, it would not hold a charge...it would not always take a preference I chose...it would change things on preferences on it's own (wondering if my phone is like that car in the movie "CHRISTINE") and was encouraged to keep using it, I just either didn't understand the "smart phone" ...or my age was allowing them to think I could no longer learn to use anything other than a rotary phone. One tech actually told me to take the battery out and reset the phone, hmmm...sure right and ruin the phone? RIGHT...who trains these people???
Verizon is no longer any resemblance of the once good company it just to be.
Today my day was horrible. (your just lucky I told blab on about the last three months dealing with them!)
Having just spent the majority of my day being transffered from one department to the next (seems they now have to transfer you if there is something as simple as adding an e mail to the order that was cancelled in error by the way to replace the lousy dysfunctional Droid I got) no one person can do what ever your account needs. Half way through my completely messed up day, I got so tired of this syrupy fake responses telling me to have a wonderful day and enjoy the rest of my day..and it was a pleasure to serve me.... after way to many transfers to other departments...they started sounding like they were recorded bots...or flight attendants. I just had to ask them if they served peanuts and cold drinks. HARD LIQUOR?
So now I am waiting for my "reburbished" droid. (again)..checked on why I had not gotten it...it was cancelled flagged by "fraud". WHATTT? Fourth time I have ordered something and this has happened, and no e mail asking me to contact them. I live in a senior gated community and they are trying to tell me "someone in your gated community attempted to commit fraud" so MY order gets flagged. (half the seniors in this gated community are half dead the others are either in Palm Springs or traveling...and the one who are slightly mobile...might not remember how to even get to the mail room .and back to their house..granted UPS requires I SIGN for the phone...but impossible since they flagged and did not send the phone out. So, here I sit, wondering after three months of dealing with these (not so funny) clowns and gain absolutely NO satisfaction, except to say....adios...when my contract ends. AT&T hopefully is better, but who knows..this phone situation may be the death of me yet..and in the end VERIZON will not longer have to waste their time or mine transferring me to try to get a 1. working phone 2. my order actually processed correctly 3. have to re-educate their techs.
I no longer TRUST Verizon, I no longer believe they have the interest of their customers at heart. (what heart?) and about the only thing I don't understand is they sell me a phone, then a package to buy time...but also $30.00 a month fee to connect to their lines? Shouldn't that rather come with the package deal??
Signed..done with Verizon squeezing me two ways to Sunday. I just hope some other company comes in with a plan to beat the socks off these top providers of cell services in the states...and I'd like to just sit back and watch the huge exodus of people leaving. The pickens are ripe to do just that.

This is being discussed in more detail, but without a solution, in another thread: https://community.verizonwireless.com/thread/840295?tstart=0
I am having the same problem with my new iPhone 5s since I installed the current software 8.1.2 yesterday after activating the phone at a Verizon store in Tucson, AZ. My zip code is 84745.
So far I have no battery problems, but that's probably because I have cellular off except when I need it. I am usually on WiFi at home/work as my old 4s was one of the phones that, after an earlier software upgrade, chewed data up for no reason.

You hit it right on the head, just because they do not lock down bootloaders still does not change that rooting and installing unarthorized firmware or OS violates TOS and voids warrenty which cleans Verizons hands to replace device if it gets damage while doing any of these things to device.

Been complaining about lag on xbox live for a year and Verizon is now ignoring me.

For the past year and a half I have been complaining to verizon about the horrible xbox live service I am getting. They keep telling me there is nothing wrong. I have tried four different routers(verizon and non-verizon with updated firmwares), tried both coax and ethernet, switched every ethernet line twice, played on a 5 foot cable in my garage, had my ont switched, and my fiber re-spliced. Verizon claims nothing is wrong and have tried to get me to stop complaining by telling me "fios is too fast for xbox because games are designed for high latency connections and because fios has no latency slower connections can't keep up so it feels laggy." I posted that response on a xbox gaming forum and promptly had 10 people tell me FIOS runs great on their xbox.
So obviously the problem lies beyond my network and verizon is doing nothing to fix it. I have had a technician come out at least six times and all they run is a speed test. I am getting the speed I am provisioned at but ALL my xbox live games are unplayable online. I believe the problem lies in the first public hop outside because when I run a line quality test,(https://secure.dslreports.com/pingtest) I get an error that says "50ms or more latency between your ip address and your first public internet hop could certainly be bettered with a quality connection"
Just to be sure it wasn't unique my house I walked around my neighborhood and found 2 open wifi networks that were on FIOS and ran the same test. Both of them came back with the same error as me and both had the same first hop as me. To make sure that error wasn't normal for FIOS users I asked those poeple on the xbox live forum to run the test and tell me the results. Every single one of them passed the first hop test and had nearly half the latency, (Here are a few of them) I supplied this information and now they are ignoring me.
Is there any mod or technician here that can provide me with contact information for someone who will look into and fix this problem for me? I believe I have provided significant proof that this problem is not in my network and calling an 800 number and opening a ticket does not help. I have been complaining for a year and a half and nothing has been done. I have lost practically all my xbox live friends because of this and would like to be able to play now that I have more free time. A phone number or email would be great. BTW I am in orange county, CA if that helps.
Thx

I have been lied to and Verizon has wasted over 18 hours of my time hanging up on me and placing me on hold with no solution

On the morning of a charity event that I was running for 350 inner school children my phone asked if I wanted to do an update. I clicked yes and life as I know it has changed. The whole charity event was messed up because I had everyone’s assignment in the phone and the lollipop update made it hard to navigate. One of many things that is wrong is everything I do, I get a pop up asking me if I want to use One Touch Wizard. No matter how many times I click always use one touch, I have to go through 2 extra steps for every move I want to make on the phone. I called Verizon and they stated that they are sending everyone new phones because this update was so bad. However, they cannot send me one because on day 3 after I bought the phone I dropped it and it has a tiny crack in the screen. This crack has never effected the phone and my problems are simply because of this update. In approximately 18 hours of tech support, I have been but on hold for 15 to 45 minutes at a time with no one coming back until I ultimately just gave up and hung up. Often I was promised a call back and it never happened once. Again, I had to call back and start all over. I would call back and have to start the support process all over again. Because of all of my time and the data I had to use for updates and such a Verizon rep gave me 1 gig of data per month for 12 months. I called another time and they said the rep was not authorized to do this because I was on a loyalty plan. So this means that when a Verizon rep tells a customer something you cannot believe it because they can take it back. The only reason I am on this plan is because I paid for several months while I had a non working phone. Verizon sent me 18 straight defective phones. They were deemed defective by the manufacturer. Verizon has no respect for all the time I wasted and I almost lost my job because of it. I now have a phone that is effecting my job and my life and Verizon wants me to pay for a new one. I feel that I am being strong armed and this is a principle thing for me. I decided to post here before I file reports with the BBB, Attorney General and the FCC. I look forward to Verizon’s reply. Thanks!

Im wondering why my post hasn't been answered yet. I did file a report with the BBB and I had a rude representative from Verizon call me named Steve. He said I can file all of the reports I want and I will just keep getting calls from him. I can understand why my phone couldn't be replaced because of the small crack. I guess I have to eat that one (but it sucks because the lollipop update is what caused the problems) but what about all of the data overage I had to pay for for trying to fix this phone because of a lollipop update. I dont think it is fair to have to pay that as well. In addition, because I have an east coast phone number but live on the west coast, I cannot have tech support after 8pm. Verizon has cut this off. Im very dissatisfied and I have been a customer of Verizon for 13 years. Im hoping for a response this time.

I Returned my Cellphone and Verizon Lost it

Hi, this happened to me to and is an ongoing issues. Verizon is threatening to deactivate my 6 accounts. I need assistance from here by verizon to fix this issue.   Below see what i have been dealing with.
1/14/13: I called Verizon & spk w/ Customer Servc as all phone lines were disconnected. Female rep stated lines disconnected due to non-payment of $599.99 for a Rezound that was not returned to Verizon. Rep researched & found that phone was indeed returned to Fort Worth, TX & in Verizon’s possession. Due to their error, I was charged for 6 activation fees & was only given a discount for 3 of the 6 fees. I don’t believe this is fair. Rep advised that she submitted a Direct Fulfillment Refund Request which would be processed in 24-48 hrs & promised the $599.99 would not be counted against my account & set aside until direct fulfillment has been resolved & credited back to acct. After spending 2 hrs on the phone for resolution due to Verizon’s negligence, it was known by of call that all proof was provided to Verizon & was evident we returned the phone to them.
1/26/13: I found the $599.99 charge on my Verizon bill. I called Verizon & Rita stated that my account was going be interrupted again due to with the same issue. I spent over an houyr with the Finance Dept & Rita explaining my problem all over again. During the call, Rita stated that on 1/21/13, the warehouse confirmed the phone was returned. I also received email confirmation from Rita which stated the following:
Dear {Customer}, It was great talking with you. This email will guide you through the items we discussed. Thank you for choosing Verizon Wireless.
Credit Confirmation
This is a confirmation that your credit has been applied. Your new account balance can be obtained by: Dial #BAL & SEND 24 hours after receiving this email
During the same conversation, I asked Rita to transfer me to a manager but she said no manager was available. I said I would wait on hold until a manager was able to assist. Half an hour went by & Rita could not fulfill my request, so she asked if I would accept a call back from a manager on 1/28/13. I reluctantly agreed since I received a credit confirmation from Verizon.   However, I regret agreeing to these terms since Verizon again disconnected my accounts because I missed many business teleconferences due to this.
Monday 1/28/13 came & went. I never received a call back from a Verizon manager as Rita promised. I was left without an explanation of the $599.99 charge, multiple account disconnections, unjust activation fees, unexplained disappearance of the defective phone & update on the Direct Fulfillment Refund Request.
2/11/2013: All six of my account were deactivated once again by Verizon. I called Verizon for an explanation but was automatically transferred to Finance Dept. Melanie advised me that I was transferred due to the non-payment of $599.99. I stated that the issue was previously resolved because received a credit confirmation from Rita. Melanie advised me there were no records of such confirmation. I asked to speak to a manager since I had been going around & around in circles with customer service regarding this issue. I was transferred to Customer Service Manager Tasha. I again explained my ordeal with the defective phone return & account deactivations related to phone number (626) ###-####. Tasha said that warehouse had not found the phone. I then stated to Tasha that this information was incorrect & to refer back to my call on 1/14/13.   She insisted that I provide her the tracking number & advised her that the tracking number was in the system since I received confirmation of this tracking number on 1/14/13. I do not understand why they say the phone was in their system & take it back saying there is no tracking number nor any phone showing in their system when I received a text message from Verizon Wireless on 8/30/2012 at 900080004004 to phone number (626) ###-#### stating “VZW FREE MSG: Thank you! The defective device you recently returned has been received by Verizon Wireless.” During my conversation with Tasha, she stated she would activate all 6 accounts & follow up with me by 2/21/13 regarding this incident after Verizon internally investigates the missing defective phone. She confirmed twice that all 6 accounts were being activated & that the $599.99 charge would not be held against my account & stated that she would have another representative submit another Direct Fulfillment Refund Request. I waited on the phone until Tasha confirmed that the request was submitted.
2/12/2013: I found out that Tasha did not keep her word & reactivate all 6 phone lines.   2 of the 6 lines are currently not functioning as promised by Tasha. She lied to me & gave me false hope that my accounts were going to remain in functioning status. Due to this unjust & unreasonable reoccurring issue, I had to call Verizon Customer Service again & waste multiple hours on the phone. I was automatically transferred to the Finance Dept to make a payment for $599.99 for the defective phone in which Verizon stated they received on 8/30/2012 & was confirmed on 1/14/13 & 1/26/13 that the warehouse received the phone & therefore the $599.99 would not be held against my account. All this information was previously sent to me from Verizon via Text message 1/14/13. I explained this to not only one but six different representatives in which I spent over 2 hours on the phone during my work hours risking my job because Verizon keeps on making mistakes with my account. Listed are the names of the representatives that I spoke to on 2/12/13 regarding this ongoing issue: Kevin, Joshua, Scott (Floor Financial Rep), Koni (Customer Care), Josh & Angelina (Floor Supervisor), Josh & Sharae (Irvine Call Center). I waited a long time to get to Floor Supervisor Angelina because I was not being treated like a loyal & honest customer that I am. I returned the defective phone to them & I have all the proof that I did & still Verizon has treated me like a thief. I was then transferred to Sharae who filled out yet another Direct Fulfillment Refund Request for the warehouse. She explained that she did everything she could & stated that the Finance Dept at Verizon will not activate my other two accounts & that I would have to wait upto 72 hours for the warehouse to get back to her. She promised a call back with an update who would then call me for an update.
2/13/2013: I have 2 accounts suspended. No matter what proof I provide as evidence that I sent back the defective phone, Verizon will not comply with me. The Customer Service representatives have even said they had received the phone & promised to apply the credit to my account.
This is very frustrating!!! I have provided hard facts & proof to show that I did my part & returned the phone but they keep disconnecting my lines & they said they have not received the defective phone at the Fort Worth, TX warehouse. Verizon is demanding me to pay $599.99 for their deficiencies. I am not at fault. I have texts, email & tracking proof plus all my conversations are noted in their system that the defective phone was returned.
I Returned the phone and show all the proofs and Verizon has all the records on file, I should not be paying for mistakes that Version wireless warehouse commits and I need this phone charge of $599.99 taken off my account and credit back to my account for all this loss time that I have spent on the phone with them & all the frustration that this has caused me & having lines deactivated & not all lines working. This is not the way to treat a loyal customer that has been with Verizon for almost 2 years. I have been treated with no respect & demand that I be free of any charges for the phone I returned and for all 6 phone lines for the month of February 2013.

Defince "everything." Did you backup your phone before updating?

Can you help resolve a "Go Wireless" and Verizon Wireless issue?

How do you file a complaint against "Go Wireless" and Verizon wireless? It was partially my mistake because I didn't realize that Go Wireless charges a premium for their service. That said, I was informed by the sales person that I could get the $150 bill credit per phone line I ported over, and a $200 visa card for each smart phone I turned in. That's $350 for each phone in credits.. This seemed like a great deal, so I purchased 3 phones, samsung galaxy 5. I paid a $50 premium per phone to buy them from the store (note..there are NO PRICES listed, you have to rely on what the sales persons quotes you). I also paid a $20 per phone "set up" fee and a $10 sim card fee. Again, I take responsibility for not asking if other verizon stores charged these additional fees. HOWEVER, when I was told to go to the corporate verizon store to get the envelopes for to turn in the smart phones for the $200 per phone credit - this was not my lack of research. I did go to the corporate office and was told that the $200 offer had ended 7 days ago. I went back to "Go Wireless" and the store manager told me that the employee was misinformed and was working off a quote sheet that was out dated. Ok, now you'd think they'd offer something to fix their "mis-informed" employees mistake. No, they said there was nothing they could do. I could return each phone for an additional stocking fee of $35, and cancel my plan. So, here I am...paid a premium for the phones, was "misinformed" by a store agent who was working off an outdated specials sheet, and my only recourse is to pay $105 to return the 3 phones. Something isn't right here. Verizon won't do anything, Go Wireless won't do anything. Any suggestions?

My girlfriend had a similar issue because her new device was not updated to IOS7 when she turned it on, but her backup point was created using IOS7. Check to be sure the restore point was created and then factory reset the phone after you have updated to 7.

X10 won't update Android 2.3

Hi,
I've had my X10 for about 2.5 years now and I'm trying to update android. When I attach my phone to my PC, PC companion lets me know that I have a software update. I attempt to update my phone but when PC companion is in the process of "preparing" my phone for update it suddenly stops and returns me to the main PC companion page with no errors.
Any ideas?

I suggest to use SUS instead of PCC

Droid killed by verizon update?

Has anyone had their Droid quit working recently after a verizon update? My back button quit working and it has continued to get worse within the last week. No longer really functional phone

Re: BUG: Web Update KILLED by driver update in XPe There are two ways for the Creative software update to be installed. If you install the driver Cd on your system, then the webupdate gets installed on your system that way. If you install new drivers on your system, download from creative, it will be installed also. If you just unzip the files you got from the Creative download and just update the driver manually then the web update service does not get created.
If you have winrar or winace or 7 zip, download the newest Creative driver. then right click the Creative executable. Extract the contents to a temp folder you can easily access. then go to the main root of that folder and run setup.exe. Right before the installation finishes you should see the autoupdater hang and then finish installing. Then reboot and see if the folder has been recreated.

Verizon Update 2/3/2013 requires re-boot

Just updated iPhone 5 with Verizon update.
It bricked one iPhone, but a reboot solved the problem. The second iPhone updated without incident.
If your iPhone is stuck "searching" where Verizon and the connection bars should be (top left of screen) re-boot.

Other issue is that I was attempting download of the forum and it needs wi-fi to download....that never was an issue either......can't even delete the attempt to download! Very frustrating...
I can see why that issue would be frustrating. I would like to help with this issue. What is happening when you try to send email? Also, you said you can't locate your AOL account. Have you looked in Settings>Accounts? It should list any email accounts you have setup there. If it is not there, try clearing your cache from your email.

Please somebody help me !!!! I just got back from Paris and Israel and this update got my iphone 5 in recovery mode. I can't loose all my pics and videos from my vacations ??????????????????????????????????

NOO it's not broken it is a software error. What you need to do is put your phone into what is called DFU mode or Device Firmware Upgrade Mode. What you have to do is connect your phone to itunes but do not start the sync process. Ignore any popups from itunes initially. When you are connected to itunes take your phone and hold down the home button and power button at the same time. Hold them down for about 30 seconds or so and you should see your device screen rollover to the black screen and disconnect from itunes once this happens it will reboot and automatically connect to iTunes, after this happens start the restore process through itunes and it should continue past the error message.
* Also before you do this try ejecting your sim card if you have the at&t model if you are on Verizon ignore this. There is a small oval port on the right side of the phone with a small pinhole. Use a paperclip and insert it into the hole, the door will pop open. Take the door out, remove the sim card and wait 5 minutes then return the sim card back into the phone and begin the above process.
If none of this works you may just want to bring it the genius bar and have them look at it. Good Luck and I hope this helps!
