    Can't hide gallery album - What changed?

    Last week my SD card in my stock Verizon Galaxy S4 just died. Neither my computer or phone would recognize it. I have a new SD card in the phone now. I didn't format or do anything with the new card other than insert it and the phone recognized it. Before the old SD card died, I could hide...

    A battery pull usually resets this issue for me.

    New Bugs in Gingerbread?

    I have experienced both issues as well. I only had the phone issue once and a reboot (battery pull) addressed it. For the updates in the Android Market, I've experienced that much more frequently (and I have 1 app right now doing it) and it comes and goes. Eventually, any app which was updated...

    Gingerbread issues

    The upgrade was put on hold when an issue was found around authentication to Microsoft Exchange for corporate users. Once the issue is corrected, they should re-enable the upgrade for anyone that didn't get it yet.

    Gingerbread issues

    I have a D2G and the update is fantastic. I think the only time since the end of last week that I restarted my phone was a battery pull because the physical keyboard started to process some keys as shortcuts. That issue also occurred pre-Gingerbread.

    Google Calendar Issue/s

    Something to try that has worked for me is go to the main settings for the phone and select applications. Find the Calendar app and click on Clear Data. This should cause a re-sync. Also if your work calendar isn't showing up, in Accounts on the main settings select your work account, verify it...

    Droid 2 Global

    Wifi isn't working anywhere? Did it worked before you rooted it? Have you tried any program like https://market.android.com/details?id=com.farproc.wifi.analyzer to see what it reports? Give us something to go on - what did you do to your device, did it used to work and what have you tried?

    Droid 2 Global

    How are you turning cell data off? If you mean enabling Airplane mode, that disables all wireless connections.

    Droid 2 Global

    The WiFi is your data connection at that point. Do you have some need to use cell data vs wifi when wifi is enabled and connected?

    Droid 2 global running hot

    BluePlate - I have the same hotspot as you describe. Doesn't bother me and I imagine replacing it would change nothing. I just wanted to reply as confirmation of what you are experiencing.

    Not getting text messages

    This has happened to me once in the 2 months I had the phone (D2G on Verizon config'ed to use CDMA). Realized that I hadn't received a text for almost 2 full days. I only text the wife and kids and that is a couple of texts a day at most. Everything else with the phone appeared fine - data...

    Droid 2 global running hot

    I'm a newer Droid 2 Global user myself and yes it gets warms. I had a loaner AT&T iPhone 4 for 3 weeks prior and it got warm too. In fact another iPhone 4 user commented on how warm my phone was compared to theirs. I am a heavy data user (though not streaming data) and the other iPhone 4 user...

    App2SD vs Move to SD

    Thanks for the responses. Maybe it's coming to this new phone off an older blackberry where I was always having to be aware of what was loaded and using memory. Just to close this out, does anyone know if there is a difference between using the app and using the send to SD function within the...

    App2SD vs Move to SD

    I'm a new Droid 2 Global user and did some searching but didn't come up on an answer so here's my first question. Is there a difference using App2SD on a Droid 2 Global phone vs going to Settings / Applications / Manage Applications and selecting a specific application and clicking Move to SD...
