It just say error, try again later for both. And I. Try again after awhile and same thing again, and again. Also its the pre installed news widget, and pre installed social media widget. So I really don't want to delete them, since I don't know how to readd them.

Look for them under your apps manager and clear the data and cache for both. It'll wipe out all your settings but that often clears up those obnoxious type errors.

Well what ever the issue was, it seems phone fixed itself. Earlier today both widgets started working properly.

I had two interesting conversations today. One, was with a Best Buy Mobile sales rep, and the other with a Verizon rep. Neither of them knew ANYTHING about this.

You would think that fee is something Verizon would have told the people who sell their phone BEFORE the general public found out. Especially since it takes effect on 4/22!

Don't you already have to pay for an upgrade if it's been less than 18 months?

I believe so. However, this would apply to people who have waited for their upgrade date or are well past it. No more free upgrades.

 

[Motown Marvel]

yeah, im available for an upgrade. this is stupid. isnt the point of the upgrade is to get a new/better phone at a discounted price? so, now, you get a fee for getting a new/better phone?

looks like i'll just stick with my old phone.

How in the world do I send .mp3 files from my computer to my cellphone? I use your standard cheap trac phone cellphone and I haven't figured out how to send things from my phone to my computer and vice versa.

Both. I want to use songs and sound effects from my laptop as my ringtone.

IMHO they already did... Which is why I left then for AT& T.

Not all phones can do that. What is your phones make and model number?

If you can upload the audio file to their site, you can then edit it and send it to your phone. All for free.

Yes. It's just a few fixes and upgrades, nothing major.

Droid 2 Update Information

 

[Webhead2006]

Ok thanks, I was just wanting to hear what folks had to say on it. And if it affected things, ie folks who have hacked/rooted phones, which mine is not.

Same here. I love my S2. Pretty close to a perfect phone. The S3 rumors are quite awesome however. We will see it on May 3rd. Can't wait.

I'm not sure if it's the same one you're talking about, but there is a phone by that name. It's essentially a Bold with a fancy new case and costs around 2 grand.

Hey guys, my brother's Droid 2 just got the Ice Cream Sandwich upgrade. I'm trying to find a simple list of what changes it made to his phone. Can anyone here help? Google hasn't shown me anything pertaining to the Droid 2.
