Are you guys making sure you have background sync enabled all the time, for both mobile data connection and wifi? And you're not turning mobile data off (or losing mobile data signal) and letting wifi turn off when the phone's asleep?

Ha yeah, that's what I thought too so I emailed the developer and straight up asked if that function could be implemented. And I received some very prompt responses! First response, responding to what I put in the OP: Then, a second response after I clarified that the stock app does in fact...

This is on my Razr Maxx HD with Jelly Bean. When I use the stock Google Play Music app and play music via Bluetooth through my car's JVC X50BT receiver, the receiver sees the track information and can tell me song title, artist, time, etc. The JVC unit supports A2DP 1.2 and AVRCP 1.3 and the...

If you have 32gb internal storage, you have the Maxx. Forum app signatures don't know the difference :)

So Jelly Bean navigation doesn't remember that setting I guess? Every time I navigate somewhere I have to check the box to avoid toll roads; it would make a lot more sense if it remembered that I don't like toll roads and defaulted that check box to my last input.

I'll add that I got the Maxx HD last week and shortly after upgraded to Jelly Bean. I have not had a single issue with the email syncing with the stock email manager (setup via the "Corporate Account" settings). My account is an Exchange account and both my mail and calendar update via push with...

Is Best Buy still pricematching Amazon? If so, for how much longer are they expected to do so? Also, regarding insurance: I can buy the phone at Best Buy and call Verizon within 30 days to add insurance to the phone, correct? (I dont think I want the Best Buy protection as I don't think it...

Do you get to give your mobile hotspot an SSID and any kind of security like WPA?

Just curious if anyone knows or if there's any precedent as to whether new stock of the Maxx HD will come with JB or continue to ship with ICS.

Yeah that's what I was thinking too. But still, I can't imagine Verizon charging the same $50 for either the 4GB w/ hotspot or 5GB w/o hotspot and hoping the 5GB users never flick the switch on their phones to turn it on.

Yes, unlimited txt is still on the plan and I believe it would continue with any of the above options. Unlimited calling isn't important at all as we usually only use ~75% of the 700 minutes in a given month. I guess I could get the 2gb or 5gb plan without hotspot and use a program like FoxFi...

Well that's kind of another question I have... I'm on a family plan--the family plan is their Nationwide 700 Minutes thing from years ago. 2 other individuals plus myself have feature phones on it (I haven't upgraded my phone in nearly 4 years) and another individual has an iPhone with the old...

I'm going to get one of these next week and I'm looking to get the 4gb + Mobile Hotspot plan for $50 (upgrading a dumbphone on the Nationwide 700 minutes plan, so not quite the Share Everything plan, I guess). Ideally, I'd like to get the phone and this plan and drop my home internet altogether...

I wonder if this explains the 2-3 week backorder at Amazon... will the new batches be shipping with Jelly Bean out of the box, or will they still be with ICS requiring the user to update it? Edit: Nevermind, I see they're in stock again. Still, will they ship future phones with JB out of the box?

Awesome, thanks for the info. Never would have expected that.
