I'm surprised there isn't anyone else reporting this. It seems VZW has a secondary backdoor into the stock firmware that isn't SDM or Knox. I didn't have the Verizon app installed either. On a different build on another S5 phone, the Verizon app asked for root from SU, and I shut it down...

The other day I swapped my batteries an upon reboot, got a splash screen indicating an update was being installed. I had been rooted for over two years and I had SDM frozen via Titanium Backup. There was no confirmation prompt or ability to defer the update offered. After boot, SU had been...

Same success here. Ran 2.4 script after full factory reset, everything came up clean the first time. I now have "Guest Mode" so my tablet can also be the coffee table remote for the home media system, without giving everyone access to my email :) Thanks, Condi!

I rooted with the BinAry script here There doesn't seem to be anything strange in my execution of the script. Everything appears to work, no suspicious behavior. Other than the stock Media Remote icon disappearing from the bottom center quick launch area, everything seems to be the same -- just...

"Inferior to a Revo"? You mean like a 5" chunk of 2x4 with icons and buttons drawn on it with a Sharpie? Sent from my Sony Tablet S using xda premium

The ghetto-fabulous LG Facebook app is called SNS (Social Network Service)....freeze that with Titanium and it's done. Sent from my Sony Tablet S using xda premium

Can't downgrade once you've installed ICS. Don't hold your breath waiting for root either....dev interest is low, Sony won't play ball, and people are giving up. Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda premium

You'd spend more time watching the video and doctoring your card than you would spend at a Verizon store getting a free replacement of the correct type....just sayin'.... Sent from my Sony Tablet S using xda premium

I think you're in for a treat with the RAZR....about 8 mainstream roms in active development, latest ICS, easy root, utilities, support on multiple sites outside XDA. ...oh, and did I mention the battery life? I barely think about it anymore....instead of running from outlet to outlet with a...

I bought mine two weeks ago off of Ebay for $411 shipped. It was literally mint. Took it down to Verizon store to swap out existing SIM for the micro SIM the RAZR needs, they popped it in, turned it on and everything has been flawless since. Coming from an LG Revolution, it's like going from a...

Well...for people looking to jump ship who have concern about the money, there's about a $250 difference. Battery life is huge for me, and I've missed that battleship-solid build quality I always had with Motorola. For my $400, it made no sense to suffer with a C-minus phone any longer. I run...

Seriously.....dig deep, sell some crap on Craigslist, donate at the plasma bank....whatever. Just bite the bullet, scrape together $400 and buy a RAZR Maxx off of Ebay. Revo is at a dead end. I finally quit b!tching and just replaced the damn doorstop POS. When I went into VZW store to get the...

It has a protector from the factory, and that is probably the only thing scratched. Search this forum for instructions on peeling it off so you can replace it. Sent from my VS910 4G using xda premium

I use Lightflow Light also. That ultra bright LED sucks battery down to zero overnight....

I'll go $40

I use MediaHouse to browse my network for DLNA sources: NAS & WMC 7. It is much better than Sony stock DLNA player--which is a featureless afterthought/sick joke. MediaHouse then calls up MX Player, and it's codecs handle the same video sources that Sony DLNA refuses to play....

I know in Froyo freezing Software Update would cause Bluetooth to stop working. I don't use BT, so I froze mine the day this crap started by using Titanium....don't know if GB has the same problem.

This thing had the stench of death on it by the 90-day mark. It's the crack-addicted-baby-abandoned-in-the-dumpster-by-its-mommy of VZW 4G experiments. Bless our few dedicated contributors for keeping the poor miserable orphan on life support this long...

Cubed appears to be developing for the Vivid now.

Several people have reported this, starting with the first Gingerbread ROM on the Revo. It happens to me about twice per week.

Mine still only pairs as media audio. When I try to enable the phone checkbox it UN checks itself on save.

Mine will pair as media audio only....no phone connection. It's the same using BT headset or car kit. It won't pair as duplex phone, just plays music.

Interesting that my "Rev Reality Check" topic mysteriously disappeared -- ahead of its time I guess. Rather than see more momentum for innovation, we're seeing some of the most loyal former contributors either publicly jumping ship or just quietly sliding away. Volunteer developers naturally...

I'll dig through and look for it when I get home later...searching the forum via "XDA Premium" phone app leaves much to be desired :) Thanks for the pointer! EDIT: Here's MT's original post with the fix: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17693897&postcount=789 Download at...

No problems with Swype, but I'm having the same Bluetooth problem, just starting today. I don't know what might have changed.

Sounds like a good topic for a new thread in General forum.....

Just a thought: If it was stolen from your car, is there a possibility you could make a claim against your comprehensive auto insurance? If your deductible is less than $550, you're at least that much closer.

Same here. The Revo doesn't seem to like hardware mode changes at times. I get reboots when switching into Bluetooth occasionally. [I'm Revolting -- are you? Beamed directly into your brain by Revolt 1.3]

I understand your frustration.....mine behaves that way occasionally too. Plus the spontaneous reboots are becoming more frequent as well :( [I'm Revolting -- are you? Beamed directly into your brain by Revolt 1.3]

So, the pitch on Amazon was: ....but, it doesn't seem to play nice with the Revolution. I've taken the pack, fresh off the charger, plugged it into the Revo, and it goes into (apparently) trickle charge mode. The problem is in less than 10 minutes the charge icon disappears and it goes back to...

I'm still digging the rom and looking forward to the long press voice search fix. Only current quibble is with hit or miss custom ringtones. For the same caller I sometimes get the custom, sometimes get the default. [I'm Revolting -- are you? Beamed directly into your brain by Revolt 1.3]

My sentiments exactly! [I'm Revolting -- are you? Beamed directly into your brain by Revolt 1.3]

Sounds like the Market install didn't give you a way to access cwm from the ui, but it did install...it just needed something (the vzw update) to call for a recovery reboot, which then gave control to cwm. [I'm Revolting -- are you? Beamed directly into your brain by Revolt 1.3]

I think the battery life is longer.....but it might just be the puppy love hasn't worn off yet. I'm starting to think Revolt 1.3 is about as good as Froyo is going to get! [I'm Revolting -- are you? Beamed directly into your brain by Revolt 1.3]

I'm using the wall charger from a Moto Razr, and it puts the Revo into fast charge. I found the pinouts here: http://pinouts.ru/all/razrv3_charger_pinout.shtml Any new insight from that? [I'm Revolting -- are you? Beamed directly into your brain by Revolt 1.3]

I KNOW! Right? Since squashing all the bugs this dang thing don't do nothin but call people 'n' surf real fast `n' stuff.....where's the sport in THAT? Sent from my VS910 4G using XDA Premium App

Running a full Titanium Backup on 1.2 now -- at least it's the devil I know :) I'll install 1.3 tonight as soon as my 1.2 backup completes -- I'm getting very tired of rebuilding from scratch. Thanks for staying on this -- the performance is really great, all glitches aside!

Hey...I'll leave that level of wizardry to you! Good to know there is a possible answer. Sent from my Revolting VS910 4G using XDA Premium App

On USB "computer powered" I've found maps and weather apps suck battery much faster than it can recharge. I noticed that the car adapter is detected as "AC Powered" -- even though it's starting off as 12VDC. I was hoping to use the external USB battery pack to keep the internal battery full...

I'd be interested in this also. I'm using New Trent USB battery pack and I want it to be acknowledged by the Power Manager as a fast charge source -- not the "computer connected USB" source it shows as now.

I'm getting 14k down 3k up via Wifi to Comcast. Sitting in the same chair, I get 13k down 2k up via 4G. I'm happy as a clam.

I downloaded "Battery Calibration" by Marosige from the Market. Have you checked that out?
