i upgraded today to the warp, and i am getting my fb alerts but cant get texts?? i had someone in my home send me a text bc others said they had sent me a few, and i havent received ANY?? anyone else having this problem????
@SpecOpsAgent10 It's true live backgrounds consume battery life, even if it's not currently displayed on the screen it still continues to run in the background. I however enabled it only for the video to show the fluidity of the processor.
i just got this phone and honestly its not too bad i mean i mean considering its boost and most of their phones are crappy plus you get what you pay for i paid $170 for it and its better than the samsung prevail in my opinion
Excellent video review; this is to be my next phone. My only 'gripe' (putting it harshly) is that you mention multiple resets and freezes, but I assume that would happen with Android phones/apps freezing and force closing. My first Android was a HTC Hero. Also, you talk about battery life, but based on this video, you're using a fully animated Live Wallpaper, and I know that those alone are battery hogs. With all things that are "running" turned off, your battery could last for the day.
At the end you said "mket2005 signing off" when your username says "mket2006", lol. Besides that, I love the phone, and I love the video! I'm glad I clicked the link
Thanks Alicynwashere! I have had a radio show in the past. Lately I've been more involved in movies and tv and most recently, phone reviews. Glad you liked my review :)
IDK bt did he trip any1 out when he said get ready to throw away thoses tight jeans lol!!!! And btw im gettin diz phone in like @ weeks i hope its as goo as everyone says it is.
Boost replaced my phone and I'm still have multiple resetting issues with the replacement phone, sometimes every 5 minutes when I am using it and once every few hours all on it's own. The phone completely locks up and reboots. It's very frustrating. Maybe the problem lies within an app or the phone's firmware.
@cody3897 You might try a small piece of electrical tape over the light sensor just to the left of the earpiece. That should trick the light sensor into thinking its in a dark environment.
@nolaniztweety. One thing i would like to suggest that might help would be a full device restore. It seems to provide some relief to the frustrations of constant resetting and unresponsiveness and it is more effective than an OS restore. Boost told me they are aware of the defective devices and are accepting returns. For device restore, power up while holding volume down key and power. It will wipe your device back to factory settings, but it will be more useable while you wait on a replacement.
go check out knoxville363 his videos are more info the reason i think he got so much problems is he got that background and look at all his apps he got
@mket2006 I don't have that problem with my phone and I bought it 5 days after came out, one thing about the battery problem I downloaded Juice Defender and let me tell ya, it works at least for my phone and I use it a lot.
@mket2006 Yes, I do especially if I am using a app like facebook or angry birds. I either freezes or just blackout and eventually shuts off. Tomorrow, I will call boost to possibly get another phone.
Thanks rangdrol. Covering up the light sensor does in fact cause the 4 buttons to light. I did not find any shutter sound options but if you mute the ringer, that should also mute the shutter sound. I have not seen any buffering delays or image distortion yet on this phone. Installing juicedefender and switching to static wallpapers did help the battery life somewhat. Also, I'm using swiftkey X instead of the stock keyboard in this video.

i think the reason your phone battery is dropping because of your backround.

Is anyone experiencing long delays with text and SMS messaging being received? Not sure if this is a problem with the device or with the carrier.

Thanks rangdrol. Covering up the light sensor does in fact cause the 4 buttons to light. I did not find any shutter sound options but if you mute the ringer, that should also mute the shutter sound. I have not seen any buffering delays or image distortion yet on this phone. Installing juicedefender and switching to static wallpapers did help the battery life somewhat. Also, I'm using swiftkey X instead of the stock keyboard in this video.

Nice review. Cute kitty. Some things I'd add:
- You can cover the proximity/ambient light sensor, top left of the earpiece/speaker on the front with your finger and the buttons will light up
- The stock keyboards suck, but you can download the swype "beta" from swype.com
- My screen calibration seems a little off. Settings/display/calibration should fix it but I haven't gotten around to it yet
- No front facing camera, but that's a small sacrifice
I like it better than my Evo 4G
