Hey guys, I've joined this forum in the hope that I can find some ways to possibly fix these issues I have been having with my phone after upgrading to the new Jellybean OS or possibly even downgrading to the previous version I had. I am using a Droid RAZR.
First off, there is no streaming capability on my phone. It can't stream videos from the YouTube app, it can't stream music from Google play, or any of the music I have from my SD card. Flash seems to have disappeared from my web browser as well ---in terms of streaming, this might also be the reason that my phone (when I have it on loud) doesn't play my ringtone for both my alarm or incoming calls, it just vibrates instead. Second, battery life is worse than I have ever seen a smartphone. It doesn't even last me five hours (this may not be due to the upgrade, it may be the fact that my phone's battery has pushed passed its prime?), it seems that it's unable to hold a charge. I'll put it in my pocket and then shortly after, it feels like my pocket is on fire. Thirdly, I've had to hard reset my phone multiple times already. Sometimes the phone will just freeze up and becomes useless or, the home screen will become black and even though I'm able to mess with the unlock wheel on the front, when I slide right to unlock, it freezes there until I turn off the screen so when I turn it back on, the same thing occurs until I reset it. I'm wondering if it's just time to replace my phone (although I hope this is the worst case scenario).
I hope you can help! Thanks.
