I know this this topic has probably been beaten like a dead horse, but...

0 Upvotes

I'm on my HTC EVO with litterally no internal upgrades except the system upgrades from Droid. On the internal phone storage, I have only 40MB left. On my SD card, I have 136 MB left. Both considered extremely low levels of space left. I deleted a lot of apps off both SD and phone storage, and a lot of pics off SD card. I have app2SD and I move any app I can off my phone and onto SD. I have apps on my SD card, the biggest being 10MB and the smallest being 16KB. And not that many apps. On phone storage they range 12 MB to 19KB. Again, not alot of apps.

What is taking up all this space on my phone?

How can I get rid of it?

Sometimes I'm in places where I lose bars or have low service, is there a way to use the GPS to make a call or send a text?

I'm currently on mobile. How do I stop* this* from happening?

I don't like having my asetriks asterisks moved...

I'm trying to do *this*, not* this*.

Why must my phone assume that I want to end the asterisks quotes each time? I'm atually corrected about 1% of the time by my phone, which means every time I'm not, I always have to go back correct my phone, wishing I could slap my phone in the face each time I basically say to it "no, I intended that asterisks to be after the space, dammit!"

Which Droid To Get?

0 Upvotes

I am most likely getting a new phone today, an Android phone. It'll be the first time I actually have a high-end, recent phone. The two I am looking at are the Galaxy S2 and the Galaxy Nexus. I love the idea of the better screen on the Nexus, but the S2 has a better camera and, some say, it is faster? My mum also has a Galaxy S2, but I guess that isn't all that important. I also love that the Nexus has ICS. Or is there another phone I should get instead? So, Reddit, which phone would you recommend?

Original Motorola Droid should I install a custom Rom?

2 Upvotes

I am right on the fence about Trying CM7. My phone has been rooted for a while. I was looking for some of your thoughts on whether or not it is worth it to install a custom rom. the biggest thing I am looking for in a new rom is speed and new features. The only thing I am unhappy with about my current phone setup is that it will sometimes loose reception when I place a phone call. (go from full bars to 1 the second I hit send.) I that flashing a new radio could help that. So basically the questions that I have about roms and radios are:

  • Would you suggest installing a new custom rom?

  • Is the speed and features increase worth flashing a new rom?

  • If so what roms would you suggest for the Droid one running 2.2?

  • If I am running 2.2.2 can I flash to a rom based on 2.3?

  • Is the signal boost from a new radio significant or even noticeable?

  • If so what radio should I change to / where can I find them?

Thank you so much for all your help /r/droid!

O noes my photos are gone :(

I was snapping photos of my cat and looking back over them when I realized my gallery was wiped out of all the photos I have taken in the last couple months, aside from the photos of my cat I just took. I did not delete them and I am not sure how they got deleted.. is there any possible way to recover them? My phone is an HTC Incredible and it's about 4 months old. Has this happened to anyone else?

Finally upgrading!!

I have had multiple generations of the Iphone and have grown tired of the stupid shit apple does. Was wondering you all could give a good recommendation for a good new phone. I have AT&T. I was thinking about getting the Samsung Note 3 but have heard lots of different things about it.

EDIT: It seems it's in the works, as they are ironing out some final bugs. possibly next week for a release on rom manager

Major error with CyanogenMod 6.1

My phone was working fine until this morning. I was talking to someone and it just shut off, not a big deal. When i turned it back on all the ui and settings were back to stock. The apps I installed show up but crash when launched, and I lost all of my contacts. Any idea what happened and how to fix it?

I might be getting a Droid soon and was wondering about some things

0 Upvotes

My contract for Verizon will be over soon, so that means a new phone for me. I'm more of an iPhone kind of person, but seeing as the Droid has expandable memory, I was thinking about getting one. iPhones just don't have enough space for my music. So anyway, I was wondering what you guys thought of:

  • The touch screen. Now, I absolutely love the touch screens on iPhones and iPod touches, so I was wondering if the Droid's touch screens were as accurate. I have an LG Versa right now and the touch screen makes me want to tear my hair out every time I use it.

  • The music player. As I mentioned before, I have a lot of music. But I don't want an mp3 player and a phone in a separate device. It's a hassle carrying around both of them and would be great to have them both in the same device. So how is the music player? Easy to navigate? Organized? I hate to compare everything to the iPhone, but is it similar?

  • What would be the best Droid to get? I see there are a lot of them available to choose from, so which one would be the best choice?

And that's really all. Again, sorry to compare everything to Apple. I'm sure that's not the best thing to do when asking for advice, but it's really the only thing I can compare it to. Thanks for any help.

Where can I get a cheap used Droid 1?

0 Upvotes

Would like to get one for the wife. I've been looking around on craigslist and the lowest price I can get is $100 used. Seems reasonable, but I only paid $99 new for mine (of course with contract), so I'd think anyone upgrading couldn't possibly expect to get basically what they paid for it, and I also don't feel like it's worth that for a used one. $75 would be an okay deal. Ebay has them for basically the same price, but given I'd have a harder time if it came bricked, I'd prefer not to go that route.

Any suggestions?

[Edit] Thanks for all the responses from people with phones. I haven't grabbed one yet, but if you're serious about selling your old Droid 1, please feel free to IM me with some pics and asking price along with any shipping charges, etc.

[Edit] Sorry, maybe I wasn't clear. I'm not interested in hearing how delusional I am because only paid $99 for mine with a contact and how the economics of that along with market supply and demand work. And if you understand that much, then the word perceived value now also comes to mind.

My wife and I are perfectly happy not upgrading her phone until the contact ends due to the outrageous price of retail phones. If we can get one on the cheap, then sure, it's very much worth it. I'm even going back to the Droid 1 since it's one of the oldest models out there (yesterdays technology) and should be valued as such.

My droid 1 screen has a mind of its own!

0 Upvotes

My droid one's screen is acting possssed with it constantly moving things on its own and opening apps ect. Is there anyway to fix this? I had the same problem back in october and verizon just replaced my phone but considering they dont even have droid ones anymore i doubt they would do that.

I get the new every two in august any chance they may just let me do that now? Was really wanting to upgrade to a 4G phone but only the thunderbolt is out now right?

Thanks in advance for the help!

When text inbox is full???

0 Upvotes

Motorola Droid. I got a notification that a text message was rejected because my messages are full. Will the rejected texts come through once I delete some old ones? I think it's strange that I didn't get a warning before it's so full it has to reject a text.

Unexpectedly upgraded to DX2; yay?

0 Upvotes

went swimming sunday. forgot the DX was in my pocket. Insurance says DX is back ordered and has offered me a DX2. I accepted.

I've heard a mixed bag of reviews. Fooling with one at the VZ store didn't yield anything particularly damning. In fact it seemed nicer than my DX.

Thoughts? Cautions?

Split personality problem with Bluetooth

0 Upvotes

TL;DR Please help me fix the seemingly random Bluetooth behavior on my phone.

I have Bluetooth setup between my phone and three devices: a headset, my car and my wife's car.

The weird thing is that Android seems to randomly switch between two Bluetooth personalities. I know this quite by chance. It so happens that, on a whim, I changed my "Device name" under the Bluetooth settings. Now, seemingly at random, my phone chooses either the new name or the old.

Problem is, it only seems to remember the settings associated with each personality. I can't make one device (i.e., my car) work with both.

Questions:

  • Is there a quick fix you could point out to a n00b like me?

  • Is there an "official" way to clear all Bluetooth settings?

  • Is there a way to browse/modify Bluetooth settings in the root file system (preferably without rooting the device)?
