Moto DroidX
Android Version: 2.3.3
VZW version: 4.5.605.MB810
2 issues:
1. - When phone has been idle and locked screen. i will slide the bar to unlock. at this point the phone will freeze, only displaying the box for the pin number to enter, and never shows the number pad below to actually enter the pin. After it shows only the pin number entry window for about 2-3 seconds, the phone reboots. starting at the liquid metal effect displaying the word DROID. then continues to reboot as it normally would and will work for several days just fine, then happen again. Usually several days apart. Its not a huge deal, but kind of annoying.
2. - Google maps, while in navigation. - this one is actually the most important to resolve, as i travel allot via car for work. The real world scenario is i am on a trip from Memphis to Nashville which is about 3.5 hours connected via I-40 all the way through. the details of the scenario are that i use the car dock, and go to Google maps, then to my places and navigate to a saved place. (I have tried not using the car dock at all and placing the phone in the console and duplicating this process, same result). Typically after about 60-120 minutes i will either notice that the Google maps page (the blue arrow following along with the route) is not updating, and frozen. no hard keys pressed will do anything, the screen does not respond to taps or tap and holds. then after about a minute or so the phone vibrates for half a second, then reboots (or i have also done the battery pull to speed up this process). Or i will notice that the phone is rebooting, i would assume the same as above except that i didn't touch anything and it finally just rebooted. most times it has not rebooted when i have needed to actually follow directions, however this could cause issues/annoyances if it did.
- I have cleared the cache of the app in the settings > applications > maps page
- i have uninstalled the maps updates back to factory then re installed current update of maps.
- i have done the clear phone cache by holding home button down on boot-up, and cleared the cache that way.
- I have also done a factory reset.
none of these fixed either issue.
things of note:
- i have had the phone in the car dock while navigating via Google maps, and out of the car dock
- i have had the phone plugged in, and not plugged in to the car charger
- due to my geographic knowledge of the areas that i travel in, i know that at least 90% of the time it happens, it happens in areas where i have great 3G VZW coverage.
- it has happened in areas where i have used the pre-cache option to pre-cache the area prior to travels.
Any ideas? Anyone had this problem?
