    Interested in DNA - but will the battery last from my habits?

    Not really, considering the screen was on for 2 hrs straight, GPS radio was on, 4G was pulling maps and Ingress data and the Ingress app itself, which is not battery friendly at all, was running the whole time. My Dinc with a 3800 battery would go 2 hrs and completely kill the battery under the...

    Interested in DNA - but will the battery last from my habits?

    Not sure what sites you are visiting, but as a reference, on New Year's day I drove around fro almost 2 hours playing Ingress on battery and my phone used about 60% of the battery. That was using 4G, GPS and the screen on the whole time. But if killer battery is your primary driver you won't...

    Wi-Fi issues

    I've had no Wi-Fi issues. I connect to about 3-5 different networks a day and have had no problem with staying connected to my primary networks. Obviously when the phone goes to sleep it disconnects, but it has always re connected. Not sure what I'm doing different then everyone else. Only thing...

    how to Droid DNA Disk Drive mode??

    install the HTC Sync that will show up as a drive on your phone after you plug it in. Don't use Sync, but installing it will install the drivers.

    I'm a Quirky Phone User - Is DNA for Me? Advice Please

    I don't think the DNA will disappoint you in any of the areas you mentioned. I can't give an accurate Subbie BT answer, but it works great with my BlueAnt ST2. The speakerphone is great, Google Nav works great, I have had no battery issues, except when playing Ingress, but then I plug into the...

    HTC DNA OtterBox Defender Screen Protector Issue

    Mine is going back to VZW today. I gave it the weekend to try and "get used to it," but I can't justify a case that makes a fast phone slow to respond. I'm not usually a case person, but I do need a holster. I was hoping this would work.

    Droid DNA Cases

    Well the Otterbox is on it's way back to VZW. I could not take the deadened screen response. It drove me nuts all weekend. I've since ordered 3 different pouch hosters from Amazon (Sorry Smartphone Experts, you don't have any for the DNA) and we'll see which one holds up.

    Droid DNA digitizer grid

    I have never noticed them. If they are that pronounced, I would compare it with a working model in a VZW store and replace it as necessary.

    Droid DNA Cases

    So the Otterbox Defender came in today. My Goodness, what a beast it is. I like the holster, but the clear plastic screen cover dulls the touch sensitivity to almost unbearable. I'm going to give it an honest test over the weekend, but I think this baby is going back and I'll just get a leather...

    Notification sounds

    If you go into Sounds in the Settings panel, then select Notification Sounds, the sounds will preview as you select each one. If you are not hearing it, select Volumes under Sound and make sure you don't have something turned all the way down. Hope this helps.
