New droid 4 owner
I cannot find the password to enter into the wifi connection box. Can anyone help me with this?
it is the password to your wireless router. unless you are trying to connect to someone else's router and they have it password protected. in that case you will need to get the password from the owner of the router.

New Droid X Owner with questions
I was able to upgrade early, so I dumped the Storm and got the Droid X on Saturday. Honestly, I wasn't very happy at first, and I'm still not 100% satisfied, but it's getting much better. Although the Storm was frustrating, there were a few things I really liked, and missed not having on the X. One thing was the ability to simply tap the screen to "wake up" the phone. With the X, it's a bit troublesome to press a hard key, then have to slide to open. Is there some way to "wake up" the X with just a tap, or at least get rid of the "slide to open" thing? I heard Launcher Pro might do that, but I cannot open that app (nor the other one that was recommended).
Secondly, I tried to use a pic as the wallpaper on the home screen, but it stretched over all seven home screens. Is there some way to use one of my pictures as the wallpaper?
On the Storm, I needed to "Force Close" each app, webpage, or anything else, by going to the menu and scrolling to "Close". Otherwise, they would keep running in the background. On the X, I've been using the "Back" key. Does this 'close" the application or browser?
Is there some way to save apps on to the SD card? Or is this necessary? On the Storm, I added only about five apps and the device memory was pretty much full.
What are some good productivity apps?
What are some ideas about what to put on the other six home screens? I'm a little overwhelmed with the possibilities!
I have corporate email and calendar on the X, but I can't get my corporate calendar to sync with my personal calendar. I have to check two calendars. Is there any way to have business appts and personal appts show on one calendar?
Some other issues I'm having:
1. I've had the phone for three days, and it has suddenly powered off and automatically came back on four times. I'm thinking it was maybe because I was doing too much with it on the first day or two. It hasn't done it today.
2. Battery life is the worst on any phone I have ever had. Again, maybe because I've been using it and trying out all the features so much lately.
Some great things:
1. Love the screen size. It's like having a mini "iPad"
2. SWYPE!!! I thought I would use the Voice to Text more often, but Swype is fantastic. My boss and co-workers were amazed. (My boss immediately looked for an app to do this on his iPhone. He couldn't find one.)
3. Caller ID as 'ringtone'. I didn't know it was set for this, so imagine my surprise when I heard this computerized, feminine voice saying "Phone call from RB".
4. The speed! Downloading and installing apps on the Storm would take several minutes (if at all). Now, it takes only seconds! Webpages load fast and clear!
5. A camera that actually works when I press the button!
Sorry for all the questions y'all, but I haven't been able to find any answers in my online searches. Thanks in advance for your help!LoydroidX wrote:

You can use NoLock, it does well to disable lockscreen on device wakeup but usually wont bypass lock screen at startup. The wake up by screen touch is a bad ideal anyway, if in pocket what would stop accidental program run and accidental calls.
LauncherPro does not bypass the lock screen in any way but it is a nice screen replacement.
If LauncherPro does not run I suggest a restart of device, it should auto run after restart.
Secondly, I tried to use a pic as the wallpaper on the home screen, but it stretched over all seven home screens. Is there some way to use one of my pictures as the wallpaper?
LauncherPro gives you the option to disable scrolling wallpaper, but also you will have to modify the image to the screen size to make sure image is center the way you want it.
On the Storm, I needed to "Force Close" each app, webpage, or anything else, by going to the menu and scrolling to "Close". Otherwise, they would keep running in the background. On the X, I've been using the "Back" key. Does this 'close" the application or browser?
Download Advance Task Manager... Make sure to exclude OS files from auto close and set to close on sleep state.
Is there some way to save apps on to the SD card? Or is this necessary? On the Storm, I added only about five apps and the device memory was pretty much full.
If the application supports saving to SD there will be a option under Setting > Application > Manage Applications ? App Name..
What are some good productivity apps?
I don't think this can be a easy question this question because there is so many helpful apps but each on ia a user preference.
What are some ideas about what to put on the other six home screens? I'm a little overwhelmed with the possibilities!
I'm not using 6 pages but here some examples of my test unit ....

Sounds like you have a incompatible app maybe and is getting a force closed situation that is making device restart... Check all your apps by uninstalling them one by one and see if issue resolves itself, you may want to watch the habit of installing to many apps... The more apps you have, means the better chance on incompatiblites.
2. Battery life is the worst on any phone I have ever had. Again, maybe because I've been using it and trying out all the features so much lately.
Battery life on a smart-phone will always be different than a BB because the device is a more powerful device, its like comparing a pda to a desktop... Task Killer and setting email to not to have all accounts to instant push because that requires the device to waste a large amount of power retrieving email and staying connected to web.

New Droid Lock Screens For Kin TwoM
Hello all Kin TwoM owners...
(The last thread on this got pretty messy and was no longer a good place for me to post the lock screens I'll be making for the Kin TwoM- I'd like to keep this new thread as a simple and complete list to come check out lock screens and send them to your phone.)
I created a new Droid wallpaper for my Kin TwoM that essentially makes the lock screen look like it's a Droid...
You can use the lock icon and swipe in the exact direction it's telling you to and it works the same as swiping from left to right diagonally as you already do...
There's no benefit to having this lock screen other than aesthetics...it just makes your phone look a little cooler...
I'll post more here as I'm able to create them.
Hope you enjoy!
Directions to get one of the below screens on your phone...follow these simple steps in order:
Save the picture below to your desktop by right clicking it, and then choosing to save (make sure you know/remember where you saved it on your computer)
Then start a new email in your chosen email client (Gmail, Yahoo, Corporate, etc.)
Choose to add an attachment to the email
Find the picture and choose it as your attachment
Send the email with attachment to your Kin TwoM using your own cell number with this specific address suffix: @vzwpix.com
If your number was (123) 456-7890, then you'd send the email with wallpaper attachment to: [email protected]
When you get the pic text on your Kin, just tap on the picture to bring it up full screen, then press "save".
Go to Camera>Pictures, then choose the picture you just saved to your phone and designate it as your wallpaper the way you would any other picture you took on the phone.
You may want to stretch the picture just a little bit to make sure it takes up the whole screen, but I got it pretty close so that's up to you...
Voila (Walla): My Kin TwoM lock screen almost perfectly resembles a Droid.Black/White Hardwood Floor:

Just bought a new Droid Razr Maxx yesterday. WI-FI doesn't work at all.
Bought a new Droid Razr Maxx yesterday 9/23/12. Everything on it works just fine, except Wi-Fi. My phone doesn't even search for networks. I bring up the wi-fi menu and it's just blank. I hit scan and nothing happens. I restarted my phone a few times and it finally brought some up (although they're gone now) and when I tried to connect it would just practically ignore my requests. I'd enter the password in, hit "connect" and absolutely nothing would happen. This isn't just a problem with my home router, It doesn't find/recognize any wireless networks at my major university either. I've never had an issue like this. What can I do? Maybe I should just take it back to my local Verizon store?
Thanks!To do a Soft Reset You Hold the Volume Down and the Power at the Same Time till the Phone Shuts off let go of the Buttons and the Maxx will re-power itself up.. Give the Wi-Fi another Shot

WHY cant the new Droids transfer without disconnecting to my Apple desktop computer?
I have the Sony Xperia Z3V and have like one day to decide to return it. Nobody has been helpful. I cannot sync or link my new phone to my Apple desktop. I used to have an HTC Thunderbolt which was flawless and I was able to mount as a drive, view items on the phone before transferring over to my desktop. For this Sony I have NO option but to use that Android File Transfer but it keeps disconnecting on me using the USB connection - VERY frustrating!! It was ok the very first day I had it, but realized it just doesn’t work with Mac. Each day something odd happens to it. I am not into apps so I don’t use a lot of stuff besides basics. So I find the Sony Bridge app for Mac users. But that wouldn’t load because I had Mac OS 10.5.8 and it required Snow Leopard 10.6. So I upgrade to 10.6, an upgrade I didn’t want to make but nothing works without it anymore, and then software updates took it up to the slow 10.6.8 (which significantly slowed and ruined my productivity). I tried the new app and it doesn’t link with my phone at all. So again I contact Sony support and they were NOT helpful, saying that app works with their own Xperia Z3, not with Verizon’s version of it.
I had contacted Verizon and they tell me all that is available for Droid is the Android File Transfer and to contact Sony since they are considered last tier. Sony tells me Verizon developed the phone, so contact Verizon. I am sick of “support” shifting responsibility. 3x I have contacted Sony and have gotten RIDICULOUS suggestions like opening the USB door and restarting the phone, and trying a different USB slot on my MAC and even to install JAVA, which was already on my computer and has nothing to do with anything. I literally stayed quiet on my end knowing full well that these suggestions were absurd by “tech support” who knew nothing at all.
I need a simple function like the HTC Thunderbolt that had the ability to mount as a drive and I was able to view (before transfer) what I am seeing before transferring to my Mac desktop. It was SIMPLE. I was able to see my SD card contents and the internal contents. My SMS-to-Text showed up and that was it. On the new Droid phones, the SD portion doesn’t show up at all!! I am wondering if this is standard behavior for Droids now. I refuse to go iPhone as I do not like the functionality of it and HTC wont come out with a better phone til next year and who knows if it will give me problems with this lack of connectivity.
On the Sony, the naming convention in photos is poorly managed. It is not a good tool to transfer photos over to the desktop, delete them off the cell phone, as they are no longer needed and then when you start to re-shoot photos on the cell phone, it starts over on the naming convention and hence when you transfer files over to the computer, that file already exists and the computer will ask if you want to replace them but you cant because the image is different! (i.e.) If I shoot a photo and they name it #IMAGE_3, I transfer it on my computer and delete #IMAGE_3 off the cell, when I shoot with my cell again, it replaces the old #IMAGE_3 with the new image and hence when I take to my desktop, an #IMAGE_3 already exists with a different image, thus having to rename one of them manually. This recycling of naming convention is NOT efficient.
Bugs so far (a LOT showed up after one day):
Duplicate repeat photos, especially after viewing them, some triplets.
Duplicate text messages on receiver end on a HTC.
Random restart once.
Hit messages – get the settings button or something else. Had to get messages through notifications.
Sony Xperia Z3V does NOT work at night. During night mode and fireworks and any low light, it would focus, be clear and then when you click, it re-focuses and shoots the blurred image, over and over again – clear to shoot, re-thinks at the press of a button and shoots the blur.
Speakers are WEAK! Nothing like the awesome HTC or even the new Motorola Turbo.
The auto rotation was working great when it physically was turned over but not anymore. Does the Incipio Sony Xperia Z3V case have something to do with the triggering system on back?
What is the difference between viewing in “Photos” versus “Album” – “always” or “just once.” Which is best to use so I can stop this dialog box?
My Apple used to run Leopard 10.5.8 and I upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6 (which automatically self updated to 10.6.8) and now my computer runs sloooooow. I did all the “cleanup” necessary and its still slow. Trash takes forever to delete and even if I have 3 items in there, it claims I have over 1000. The only reason I upgraded to 10.6 was because nothing online was functioning for my “outdated” OS any longer. I cannot afford to keep up with technology.I have the Sony Xperia Z3V and have like one day to decide to return it. Nobody has been helpful. I cannot sync or link my new phone to my Apple desktop.

Yes, tones are selected under "sources" in General Preferences, along with everything else.
SyncTones was NOT selected under the Tones tab for my iPhone. I did so and it synced.

Another New IPod Touch Owner with Wi-fi Problems
Another New IPod Touch Owner with Wi-fi Problems.
I have been working at this for about 4 hours now with no success and I am getting pretty frustrated, so if it show up in my typing please ignore it. I just don't understand why these multi-million dollar companies can't write a manual or put up a web site that can actually help someone with a problem.
Ok, venting aside.
I am running a gateway computer.
Operating System = XP
Router = Linksys WRT54G
I have two other computers that are working fine with the existing wireless net work and have been for some time.
I'm pretty good with my computer but haven't touched my router since initial set-up and all that was done was a basic set up.
My I-pod is searching for a network and I'm three feet away from it but it doesn't find it.
I printed out my wireless setting. I presume SSID name equals the name box on the ipod-touch
Security = WEP
What seems to be kicking my A$$ is the password. The route setting have never been changed so I would pesume the password should be the default "admin" which I put in (JOIN) and get the "Could not find network" screen
So, I have perused this message board trying to discover and answer to mine, and and apparently many others question with no definitive results.
So I guess what I and everybody else needs is a step by step how to guide on how to discover the info needed and enter in what we need to make this work.
Thanks in advance to anybody that can actually help with this issue. A step by step do this would be nice.Thank you Terpfen for replying, and please excuse my ill temper earlier. I've calmed down some now.
Step: 1 followed step one previously, Main screen, settings, Wi-Fi. Also set power down to 5 min to give I-Pod plenty of time to find network.
Wi-Fi Network Screen.
Wi-Fi ON
Choose a Network (searching indicator) symbol spinning.
Other ...
Ask to Join Networks ON
At this point the I-pod does not find any networks available. The indicator just spins but never returns any results. I am 3 feet for my WRT54G router.
Hence the easy connect isn't connecting.
The next step. is to manually set-up the connection.
Main screen, setting, Wi-Fi, Other.
press "Other" which brings up two fields
Name __________
Security ___________
First Question? Which Name are they looking for. when I went to my router 192.168.1.1 It has the name linksys. However, when I go to my Wireless Network setting it has the name * ???? * which is different than Linksys router.
Now, since one of the goals here is file sharing I presume I should be using the Wireless Network settings name. (which I have tried.)
Next is security, Wireless Network setting indicate setting for WEP Once this is selected you then back-up to the "Enter Network Setting Screen" and you now have a password line added.
Now I have never set a password for the router so the password for the router is the default Password "admin" And I don't recall ever setting a password for my network setting. But, I only use about three different passwords and a cycled through them still with no success.
So, I need some expert advise on how and where to find the info to input into the required field to work or what I need to reset in my router to make this work.
Thanks again for anyone who has constructive input to resolve my and probably many other peoples issues with this problem. -
I bought a new Droid Razr Maxx six months ago and now it does not work..
So I bought my new Droid six months ago because the battery life was supposed last a long time. Recently, my battery usage time has started depleting. The phone only stays charged for MAYBE half a day where I used to go over a day without charging it. It has also started shutting off at random times and freezes up often. When I make/receive calls, no one can hear me. My keyboard malfunctions as well.
My contract is not up until February of 2014. I was wondering if there is anything I can do to get a new phone (iPhone 5) without paying the ETF or the full price of the phone? Verizon has not been helpful at all and it is very frustrating because I have been a loyal customer since they were Alltel.If your Battery is starting to Loose it's Punch you can get it Replaced) Motorola has a Program were you can send you Maxx in and they will Replace the Battery For a Small Fee but at least it would get through till you Contract is Up...
How can I replace the battery on my Droid RAZR?
There are a couple of things you can do before replacing the battery. Sometimes it's a matter of changing a few settings that will ensure you're getting all the power you can from your battery. Motorola Customer Service can help you with this process over the phone.
Before you call:
We recommend that you completely deplete the battery by allowing the device to completely shut down when the battery has depleted.
Once your product shuts down, plug it into the charger that came in the original box, and allow it to charge to 100%.
Once you've completed this charging cycle, call Motorola Support at 800-734-5870, and the team will diagnose your battery, and recommend setting changes or actions.If your battery does need to be replaced, we offer two battery replacement options:
The battery only replacement program lets you send your product to Motorola so that we can replace the battery and return the device back to you. If your device is within the warranty period there is no charge for this service. If your device is outside of the warranty period, the cost of this service is $49 plus applicable taxes.
You can expect to receive the device back approximately 5 business days from the time we receive the device. Use our online repair submission process to get going.
If your device is outside of the warranty we also offer an expedited battery replacement program. For an extra charge we'll provide you with a FedEx label to return your product, the cost of this service is $69 plus applicable taxes.
You can expect to receive the device back 3 days after we receive the unit. Use our online repair submission process to get going. -

Syncing MS Outlook to my new Droid Incredible 2
I have a new Droid Incredible 2 by HTC. How do I go about sycing my MS Outlook Calendar to my new Droid? Thanks in advance for your help. Robinf
If your Outlook is on exchange server, then Verizon can help you set up a connection to Exchange.
For standalone Outlook, there are a number of 3rd party apps available. It depends on whether you want USB, Wi-Fi or Cloud connections, and whether you want to involve Google in the sync (i.e. Outlook to Google, Google to the phone, or Outlook directly to the phone). CompanionLink is cheap, $14.95 and they provide telephone tech support. I don't recommend MyPhoneExplorer because it installs adware on your computer. Here's a chart.

New Droid Turbo takes forever to load pictures on social media? ...and other questions!
Hey all, I just got my new Droid Turbo a week ago and I've noticed some shortcomings that I'm not sure how to handle. They're not major, but they irritate me. I'll just list them...
-On social media (Instagram and Facebook specifically), the pages load fine but most/all of the pictures take nearly a minute or more to load, if they load at all. Never had an issue with Samsung or previous Motorola phones doing this.
-I occasionally get a popup error that "Contacts has stopped" even when I'm not accessing it or the program is closed (it usually happens when I'm making a call).
-I have a setting to make my Gmail mail sync automatically, but it doesn't always do it, and the phone is supposed to notify me but only does it sometimes.
-How to make "folders" in photo Gallery?
-Google Play music is synced, but doesn't play AT ALL...just "thinks."
I think that's all I have for now. Sorry it's so much, but I appreciate any help you all have! Thanks!!
*Lauren*Congratulations on your new Droid Turbo. We'd love to help make sure your new phone is working properly. For the photos in Instagram and Facebook, Is it that some photos appear and others do not? How are photos in other applications or different websites? As for the Gmail sync, have you checked the settings under Gmail to ensure the sync options are set to your preference. In regards to the folders for the gallery, folders are usually created on their own and based on where pictures are created. For the Play Music, what happens when you try to play songs?

I cannot send emails with pics using the stock email app on my new Droid Turbo, it holds them in the Outbox and won't send even if I move to Inbox and resend
First check to make sure you have data turned on and not just Wi-Fi. From reading your question you seem to be saying e mail is working just not attached photos. What size are the photos as some HD photos can't be sent. Your camera may be set at a very high picture size and you can go to settings and lower the size and that may solve your mailing problem.

New Droid 3 touch screen not reposnding
I just got my new Droid 3 today (I had previously wanted an iphone but a relative got a droid 3 and it was buy one get one free so how could I turn down a free new phone? ....anyway, I was just messing with it tonight and now it's completely frozen. Nothing happens when I touch the screen. It started acting funny, not letting me text and the next thing I knew, it completely froze. Does anyone know a good way to reset the device or any other way I can fix this myself?
Thanks!dwcooley wrote:
The touch screen on my Droid 3 seem to not work at the margin. In the Calendar widget, open an event. Not try to add a notification (green + at bottom right of screen). No amount of fiddling will open an Add Notification dialog box.
How does on fix this?
Good afternoon!
I'm sure I can help determine the root cause of this concern. Clearly, the screen is an important part of this phone. What I recommend doing to narrow down the potential issues, is booting the phone in safe mode. If the issue stops, then it is likely related to an application. In that case, I suggest finding the faulty application or performing a hard reset. This will not only removing harmful applications, but also removes other potential software issues.
Please advise of your results.
Thank you! -

How can I clear out "about:newtab" for privacy?
When I (or a visitor) enter "about:newtab", recently-visited sites are shown on the screen. I do not want my recently-visited sites shown. I want to remove this information from "about:newtab".
