+1 Agree. I've been using ICS since the 232 leak and it has definitely grown on me and I wouldn't go back. My battery is not worse though. You do have to do some proactive checking and stop a few apps that may kill battery if you want to use the phone for long periods of time (like facebook...

I did it by selecting GoSMS as my default texting program and then under Settings / Manage Apps / find Text Messaging and click it then click disable. That will show the default texting program on the lock screen.

Any of them will. You must set the sms program as default (when it asks). Then go into settings / manage apps / find Text Messaging, then click it and click disable. This will allow go sms or other texting program to show on the lock screen.

I used Handcent for a long time before using Go SMS Pro. Handcent is great. I don't remember how it handled groups though. They have the same basic feature set. It seems like Go SMS _used_ to go straight to the group message and show you the pic but now goes to the individual contact. Going...

I have the same problem. I just click the arrow and go to the group message to view the mms. Annoying. The other thing I do not like is replying to the group message replies to all. So I have to go back to the individual and reply there (assuming I didn't want to reply all). I would love to see...

I was rooted using Petes 1-click, got the OTA today (I did defrost the bloatware first), lost root. I tried rooting using Petes 1-click again and it completed successfully but Titanium said I didn't have root. So I tried the link mentioned above and it worked fine. Updated and lost root? 1...

Thats crazy .. but I use a simple app that I dont think is supported any longer but does many of those things. Its called Ear (ear project). You can set profiles to change bluetooth. wifi, notifications, ringer volume, etc .. might not do enough for you but works for me. I have a "loud" profile...

Camera Zoom FX is awesome! Well worth $5. I love how fast it takes pictures and all of the effects (steady shot, different focus grids/cross-hairs). You can't go wrong with this one.

I agree .. ok, now how do I get the previous version ??

Well, I have been having this problem on my D1 and it was driving me crazy. I had to just play mp3's. I just upgraded to a Bionic (fantastic, I might add) and all of my apps reinstalled, so Pandora was freshly installed. At first, it worked flawlessly for a few days and then it started the long...

Normally, I don't either but I believe I initially installed them to get ADB working when I was rooting my Droid a year ago .. I'll try these things and report back. Thanks for the suggestions!

I did install the latest motoconnect and same thing. I'll try removing connect all together and see if that works. This is on an XP machine, btw .. Thanks!

No one else with this problem? c'mon people. ...

Then what do you do when you drop it and the screen breaks? That just happened to mine and for $85 I get a new (referb) Droid .. Although I havent called yet because it is still working fine.

I have had a D1 since Nov 09 and I just got a D2 for my wife today. My D1 connects to the computer just fine but when I try to plug in the D2, the computer gets the blue screen of death and locks up. Has anyone seen this? Is there a new version of MotoConnect for the D2? Thanks, Mike
