    Droid Command Center Battery Drain

    I would have liked to use the command center, but can't with a 3rd party launcher. So I just use a weather/clock widget from HD widgets instead. I'm not sure if there is a ton of difference between the two in regards to battery usage.

    Just bought Maxx - Removing Bloat and breaking phone in

    I just returned from the Verizon store with my new Maxx. I went under Apps to try and disable all Amazon stuff. What other unnecessary bloat do others recommend removing/disabling from app management? Also, can these be removed from the phone all together, or only disabled? Is there anything...

    GNEX Check In

    I will be picking up a Droid Maxx today. I was at the store earlier, but the reps weren't able to give me a new phone with the plan I wanted (I need to lose my unlimited and move to a Loyalty $60 plan/2gig). I called CS and they modified my plan so that I can pick up the new phone at the store...

    Upgrade now - or hold off until Q4?

    Hello everyone, I currently have a GNex which I bought day one and due to upgrade my phone. The phone isn't terrible, but lately the battery has been lackluster and I've experienced a few hiccups in performance over the past several months. The Droid Maxx and Moto X were both phones I was...

    Vz edge upgrade program

    That is incorrect. I am eligible and am on a Nationwide talk single line plan with unlimited data.

    Upgrade on on line and switch to another

    I am thinking of doing something similar to this. My fiance is currently on a separate plan (she happens to have unlimited data as well). If I add her to my account, and purchase the Maxx through her line, will I still be able to transfer the Maxx to my line and re-activate her normal phone...

    Verizon closed upgrade Loophole for family share plan members?

    According to the manager at the store I went to today, all unlimited data plans will default to 2 gig plans on September 1st or 2nd. I am not sure if he was trying to trick me out of my unlimited, but I told him we'll see.

    [Instruction] How to get a new phone and keep (legacy) Unlimited Data on Verizon

    Re: [Instruction]How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon I went to the VZW store earlier this afternoon to inquire about the Droid Maxx. I explained how I wanted to add a line for $10 and purchase the Maxx on that line, and then switch the device over to my real line. They said you can not do...

    [Instruction] How to get a new phone and keep (legacy) Unlimited Data on Verizon

    Re: [Instruction]How to Keep Unlimited Data on Verizon I apologize if this question has been answered somewhere in the 42 pages of this thread, but what about someone with Unlimited Data with only 1 line on the account? I am currently due for an upgrade out of my GNex, but hesitant to upgrade...

    Grandfathered unlimited data plans?

    Thank you so much for the advice. I called and got it fixed. They even apologized and are picking up my next bill.

    Grandfathered unlimited data plans?

    I supposedly was grandfathered in with unlimited data. However, when I sign into "My Verizon" it shows my data usage out of 4 GB. Does it show this (4GB) by default when unlimited? Did anyone with an unlimited data plan actually sign in and verify their data with My Verizon after activating...

    Just Scored on a Early VZW Galaxy Nexus! 12/15 IS ON!

    Well, I certainly tried, although to be honest I expected a flat out "no" from the get go; but figured it couldn't hurt to put a little charm on and try. :cool:

    Just Scored on a Early VZW Galaxy Nexus! 12/15 IS ON!

    It is false. I called two other corporate stores who say they have the Nexus in stock and ready to sell tomorrow morning. 3 stores all told me the same story.
