verizon droid
 

I'm thinking about upgrading to the droid.Does anyone have one and what do you think?

Rswords has one i think he like it.
I have the samsung moment from sprint which is the knock off or what not but, Its the best phone, the apps are way cool and there are tons.

i have one everything on the phone is great except the keyboard i always end up just using the on screen keyboard instead of sliding the phone open, other then that its probably the best phone i've ever had tons of apps to mess around with

Best phone I've ever had. I can watch any movie you can think of (which I download for free, I have 8 or 9 on it right now) It's has over 1,000 of my mp3's on it, I use it as a modem for my laptop (with a free download)... It hand down the best phone ever. All mt friends with iPhones are getting droids as soon as there contract is up.

I have one and I like it. Except for the email, which is no where as good as a blackberry.

No need to pay extra for Verizon Navigation (google maps are free), no need to pay for visual voice mail, there is a free app for that also. Also DL the Dolphin Browser app, it is better then the one that comes on the phone, same as the handset text messaging app. Much better then the one that comes on the phone.

The facebook that comes on the phone sucks, and there is not a good app to replace it with yet.

you can teather to a lap top for no xtra charge ?

yes

As long as you don't tell Verizon your doing it... Verizon will tell yo its impossible to do with out their "program" and extra monthly fee to go along with it.

PDAnet will allow you to do it for free though. works great. I use it every week at the firehouse.

The google maps puts my garmin to shame! The satellite overlay during navigation is awesome to to help you figure out were you are going and when a turn is coming. Visual VM is awesome. I like the browser that came with it, have not tried the Dolphin one though.

hmmm I would be :scare2: when they find out i would be paying for the next 10 yearsd $$$$$$$$$:tttt:
sooner or later they wind find out you are tethering and watch your bank account get drained

They cant find out...

ten years ago that talk would have put u in a nut house

i am getting a new phone next week too. so is this phone durable? I tend to be hell on cell phones. anyone recommend something else?

Its not indestructible but I'm also hard on phones and its holding up well. I destroyed two of those "indestructible" phones in one year.

i got the Droid Eris and I love mine. I downloaded NFL mobile and got to watch the draft live anywhere I had cell service. :rocking:

Thanks for all the imput guys.I was told it has satallite radio to?

I got the phone last weekend and so far i like it.I'm still trying to figure out how use some things on it.I'm trying to download a screen saver on it but it won't download?
I like the fact i can visit this site on it,and listen to the radio to.

Pandora is good for Music.......

I also use Flickster, NFL Mobile, Shopsavy and Task Killer

I got an incredible but went back and got the moto. Now overclocked to 1.3 ghz it runs as smooth as the htc with the snapdragon proc and i just couldn't live without the hardware keyboard. I don't recall which ROM i'm using but it's based off 2.1 with the newer sms prog.
gotta have setCPU, meebo for IM, drudge easy, facebook, twitter, fox news widget, pandora, and some battery level widget that I can't seem to find the name of.

Coolest phone I've had in awhile and I'm a phone WHORE

:tu:

i use slacker radio on it.I also like that i can plug into the aux. port in my work truck radio and listen through bigger speakers.

Where do i go put movies on it?and how?:humm:

I use websitefpsp.com

Click movies at the top, then click one of the lists on the right.

Kinda hard to navigate but works well. Save them to your computer, hook your droid to your computer and copy it over. When you go back into your gallery it should be there.

if i dont get the unlimited talk mins does the web use come off the talk mins? what are you guys paying?

i hope Hulu - Watch your favorites. Anytime. For free. works on it

with vzw your paying $35 a month for smartphone data. its actually capped at 6 gigs or something, but I've never had a problem with it.

ill be looking at getting the new droid , i want unlimited internet and email and dont need a lot of mins , can i legally tether this?

what do you guys pay monthly , im going tomarrow

There is a list of things i need this to do , 1 is a planner with reminders , 2 is a very loud alarm clock , 3 if i could go to a truck pull and video tape it and immediately upload it to you tube, check emails, take photos, full internet with java support and normal browser, qwerty, long battery life, indestructible, water proof

I had the HTC incredible for 3 days. It's fast at 1 ghz and the HTC sense UI is really slick. However, the battery life was god awful, and this is coming from someone who used to carry 2 batteries daily for his treo. Also, not having a hardware keyboard just killed me so I went back, got the old moto droid. Has hardware keyboard, more development has been done. I run mine overclocked at 1.1 ghz and its just as fast as the HTC.

Its the most bonerlicious phone I've ever owned. The browser especially with the 2.1 update is really good. However, no flash support until later this year.

i was thinking about the DROID ERIS by HTC

I'm on my new droid now.
Got the motorola one because the verison guy said I can teather for free but with the incredible I would have to pay for it

5 times Faster than my Hughesnet

I've been trying to download my contacts from the computer to my phone but it's not cooperating with me,how did you guys download your contacts?:argh:

Re: verizon droid
 

Upload them to your gmail acct your using on the phone and they will sync. Easiest way.

I just downloaded the scanner app,pretty cool.You can listen to police from almost anywhere.:tu:

Videos wont upload with out WiFi. At least all mine don't. Maybe its because they are too long.

Where do i go to change the text message notification? Has anyone found any good apps for those.

Handsent

smspopup. A little tricky for initial setup, but works great and the popup is really handy.

I got the origional droid, and I love the thing! I use pandora radio and sync it to my radio all the time. as far as the apps go... theres a ton of good free ones. Explain what program or what you are doing to teather to your laptop... kinda currious on how this is done.
