    Should I update via the OTA GB?

    Hrm, then maybe mine was just a fluke. I know it's happened to a handful of people, but I'm sure Verizon would have fixed such a major problem by now, and if it's still a problem, I guess they'd just issue a new update. As of right now, I don't have a choice. My Pro is updating automatically and...

    Should I update via the OTA GB?

    Hey everyone. Way back when when we could download the (supposed equivalent) GB update to our Droid Pro's via a Zip file over the Summer, I did just that. However, when I did so, I had the same problem many other users had. The phone would force close almost all the time with the press of the...

    Reverting from GB to Froyo

    Hi everyone. After the handful of problems I've encountered on GB, I was wondering how to revert back to Froyo safely? I'm not planning on doing so at the moment, but it'd be good to know in case anything gets too wacky. Thanks!

    Phone Crashing after hitting Space on Keyboard

    On another note, where can I find the Froyo .zip to install if I ever get too PO'd with GB?

    Phone Crashing after hitting Space on Keyboard

    OMG! Thank you guys. Mine was the suggestion option as well. I had this problem a few days before this post came out, reformatted my phone, and now again (today) it stopped working correctly again. I went to Verizon to get a replacement so I could just go back to Froyo and perhaps get a working...

    How To: Update To Gingerbrad Manually

    Thank you for that extremely informative response. I understand it a lot better now. I have had hardly any noticeable problems with GB so far, and I'm rather content if this is what I have to stick with. I will admit that I had to do a factory reset today because of a text messaging Force Close...

    Text Message Freezeup

    Just for the record: I did a factory reset on my phone and it seems to be working like new (as it should). It took a while to get all the apps back, but it was worth it. I had a problem obtaining 3G at first, but I called Verizon up and they fixed that problem immediately. Hopefully it stays...

    Text Message Freezeup

    Thanks. I don't think I can root the phone on GB, and I don't really feel comfortable doing so even though I'm pretty techie. I'll give it some time, and if it doesn't fix itself, I'll factory reset. I have a few questions though. Will a factory reset bring the OS back to Froyo? The GB update...

    Text Message Freezeup

    I have the Droid Pro. It's been great except for this one bug that just popped up. Hopefully it just resolves itself in some time.

    Text Message Freezeup

    Activity Text Messaging (in application Text Messaging) is not responding. I then get the option to force close or wait. I get this, which freezes my text messaging, every time I turn off my screen and then turn it back on to go to send a text. It's rather annoying, as it happens many times...

    Even extended battery is awful

    WOAH! That's a LOT of battery life. I'm currently at 30% after 13 hours, which I'll take. I didn't root the phone since I'm on GB, but I doubt the bloatware makes all that much of a difference to be honest. I made sure WiFi sleep is set to never (have for a while), and my brightness is on auto...

    1700mAh Battery

    Yes, I am actually in a bad cell service area. It always seems to go in and out of 3G, and I have very few bars. I still have enough service to get texts and calls, but the service doesn't seem to be great here. That's probably a major reason it's eating up my battery. However, with that being...

    Even extended battery is awful

    You have the 1820 mAh one from Verizon? That's the one I have, but I'd imagine even if you had the 1700 mAh that the 1820 mAh would naturally last about the same if not longer...

    1700mAh Battery

    Wow. That's amazing! My 1820 mAh battery is already down to 80% and it's only been 2 hours and 15 minutes =(

    1700mAh Battery

    Thanks for that. I, too, just got an extended battery. I actually got the 1820 mAh from Verizon. The first day was nearly as bad as the original, but the second day has been stellar. I changed a lot of my settings between the two days though. Regardless, any extended battery is nearly a must on...
