During the first power up, did u have to sign in using a blur account? If so was it optional atleast?

i always by pass the first setup screen and enter data later... but there is a **** ton of blur on this thing cant wait for a rom to come out at least a clean rom.

How did you get your's so early?

I live in KS, and the sales clerk was shocked that I knew the Bionic was coming out tomorrow. I'll be ordering mine from Verizon online tonight, or as soon as they post it.

I actually ordered my Bionic from Verizonwireless.com this morning.. Too lazy to haul my cookies 40 minutes away to pick one up.. I'm pretty excited to see what it can do. I haven't gotten a new cellphone in 2 yrs - had the Droid Eris. Although I liked HTC, their hardware is suckish. My Eris was replaced 4 times due to multiple hardware malfunctions. I've always heard pretty good things about Motorola. Looking forward to seeing what the Bionic community will do with this phone!

How did you set it up? It won't work for me.

I'm having some difficulty locating a link to Pete's tool, could you please post a link to the version you have working? (I also want to make sure I've got a program that is known to work, and not accidentally download something bogus.) I'll be getting mine in about an hour or so.
EDIT: I think I finally found it: www_dot_psouza4_dot_com/Droid3/
(forum won't let me post links yet.) ...Please correct me if this isn't the same one you used, though!

Just got mine. Coming from an Eris. Worst part of the experience was sitting in the Verizon store for 2 hours waiting for the slow bionic activation process of customers ahead of me.
Been playing around with it for a bit, I like it so far. Can't wait for a root to get rid of all this bloatware. It's truly absurd how many useless apps they've installed that cannot be removed.

Yes I would like to know more about this so called screen issue. I'm picking mine up this evening. Is it really as bad as everyone says it is? I had the sensation for 30 days till I returned it (T-mobile sucks) and it had a beautiful screen.

Need suggestions on new phone!

What's better the Droid RAZR or the RAZR maxx?
I've been Supercharged and Gingervolted!

Ever thought about the rezond?
Sent from my Dinc... I mean Rezound

Yes. But I wanted to go back to the Droids again.

I have done a lot of research and I think the Razr Maxx is the way to go. It is the only 4G Big-Screen Android that comes with a battery that will last all day without charging.

They're basically the same phone except the battery, and now there is a $118 kit for the Razr to adapt the MAXX battery, so why not save the money and get the MAXX right off the bat.
Or get the last developer phone Verizon will likely every get.
Galaxy all the way.

Rezound!

Tell him to use the face unlock. Or there's a pattern or pin# method too. Yeah I've ran multiple benchmarks and stock vs. vs stock, I always beat the nexus. Definitely happy with this purchase.

shiiiiit maybe if you don't turn the screen on, or get any phone calls, or even look at the thing Mine lasts all day with the extended battery

So Friggin' Irritated!

Going to be down and out for a while, having problems with my replacement phone (random reboots) ARGH!
In order to trouble shoot it, Big Red wants me to leave it booted into safe mode (which means I can only use system apps) for a few days. If it happens again in safe mode (OMG this phone is worthless without any apps!) they will do a warranty swap and give me a different phone. They didn't say what phone they'll give me but put it in the notes that if I call back in with the same problem to give me a new phone.
Everyone keep your fingers crossed that it does is soon, it's going to be a pita not having Google Nav, Pandora, or WiFi Tether while at work
Edit: They tried to tell me that it's a known issue for the phone to reboot when switching between 3G/4G. They also tried to tell me it could be an app that's causing it or a corrupt file on my sdcard and that's why the replacement phone is having the same problem. Sounds like a load of BS to me.

Sorry to hear that. Hope everything goes well!
Sent from my VS910 4G using xda premium

Haha they did that with me on a replacement I didn't even have it activated 24 hours before I called back.
Anyway sorry bout your luck Kane hope everything gets better soon

Yea I've had a couple more reboots gonna be calling big red tomorrow .
Sent from my VS910 4G using Tapatalk

Status Update: Called again this morning, they proceeded to tell me it must be my sim card .... picked up a new one at the verizon store, I'll be calling them again tomorrow

Called them today they are sending me a new battery, phone, and sim. Ill give it a week and see what happens. The tech said the battery may be glitchy and te sim may be going. My issue is the phone just turns off and I have to restart it myself.

Going through the same process, my phone still has random reboots even with V8. And they said that all of them were fixed. I'm on my 3 revo, 2nd replacement.

wow wierd
havent heard that one before... im still on my first revo and thought by now i would have gone through a couple of them, keep us posted. although after changing everything i would think that would solve it.

So yea this new phone they sent me............. it sucks!!!! Tried to use it to call someone they couldn't hear me but I could hear them. No random reboots yet in 12 hours.
Sent from my VS910 4G using Tapatalk 2

On to replacement number 3 :/
Sent from my VS910 4G using Tapatalk 2
Edit: Figures I would get a tech who owns a Revo ... he said he's never had a problem with his and wasn't aware of any reboot issue with this phone (what a load of crap)
He did offer me a Charge or a TBolt ... I said no way! He then went back to sending me a replacement, didn't offer me anything else.

Apparently big red got more replacement revos , they're sending me one too.

Hopefully they done a better job then last time lol. I'd be happy if I could keep a data connection in a full service 3g area
Sent from my VS910 4G using XDA

I have had random reboots to i just went back to factory settings and im fine now nothing has happened like that.... But it could possibly be a app...

I get random reboots with the stock zv8 , screen freezes are quite often as well as losing data connection in a full 3g service area . My replacement was supposed to be here friday but it hasn't made it yet

Just got off the phone with big red and they are sending me a bionic to try

True. I have a feeling that I'll run into the same situation as Kane did since I have the same problems and I have a feeling if they give me another Revo it'll just do the same thing.

I tried to get something a little newer, but the rep wouldn't budge ... I'm ok with getting a bionic, it's what I wanted to begin with but it wasn't out at the time.
My third phone didn't have the random reboots, it would become unresponsive and the only way to get it to work would be to either press the power button on and off or pull the battery.

unresponsive screen

sometimes when doing things my screen becomes unresponsive and i have to lock it then unlock it for it to work.... grrrr. iam running brokenout 2.0.1 on zv9..... any suggestions?

That's a revolution/gingerbread thing, it happens to all of us (some more than others) at some point. Different devices respond differently to certain roms and apps there's really nothing you can do about it.
Sent from my VS910 4G using xda premium

I've gotten the same thing a few times since I put BO 1.1 on my phone as well. It never happened before then. It could just be a coincidence, though.

Do what i did and get rid of that p.o.s. lol. I called verizon and got mine replaced with a droid 4. Some people got a razor, spectrum, bionic or incredible.
Sent from my DROID4 using xda premium

Better get used to it since you'll have that problem until the day you get rid of this "phone"

I just flashed BO 2.00 and it was happening more often. I just installed the patch hopefully this helps.

Revo #4 isn't even 24 hours old yet and the thing has rebooted twice. Screen in unresponsive plenty... Hell, the screen wouldn't even respond OOB. Vzw is sending me a Droid 4, can't wait.
