I am on the verge of purchasing a droid 4 (a huge upgrade from my lg ally), but after reading these comments regarding the ice cream sandwich update… I am not so sure. I thought ICS was supposed to be a big improvement over ginger bread? I guess not. Anyone had any luck resolving the issues? I mean wow. I am a qwerty fan, and I am a pc guy as well. I had no intention of getting an iphone 4 or 4S, much less a 5, but now I am starting to wonder. Little help here please.
Also, I hear there may be a jelly bean update available for the droid 4 sometime in early 2013. wonder if that will help or just be another disaster.

To change your font size go into system settings click on display and then click on font size….. to change the size of your font…….

Now I need help with call settings…… to restrict calls……. “where the hell is it”?

This update is terrible, before it my battery would last all day and i had a really strong 4g signal. But now my phone dies after 5 hours, even when i don’t use it at all ,and i haven’t been able to connect to 4g at all i can only use 3g or wi fi. My phone went from a 9 to a 3 after this update.

I hate the update! Have been dealing with it for a couple months & it’s ruined my phone! I LOVED my Droid before this! It constantly freezes, there’s a huge delay in anything I do, it disconnects calls & vibrates or makes other noises when nothing is even happening! This phone absolutely sucks now & given that I paid an arm & a leg for it guess I’ll have to deal with a crappy phone til I save up for something else (fyi- the whole time I was typing this no words showed up til I was a couple sentences into it! Point proven.)

This update is awful. My phone is too hot to keep in pocket and battery dies in 3 hrs. It lasted all day a week ago.

Enabling WiFi worked for me as well.

I regret to inform you that the very feature you mentioned has been removed for some.odd reason.

Two words: factory reset. You can’t honestly expect this update to adapt older data files from your apps, which were made for gingerbread, to ics perfectly.

Im not impressed with the new update ics for the droid 4. Im having an extremely difficult time using and accessing many features on my phone. Before the update i had no problem what so ever. Im really hating everything about ics 4.0. Where to even start…the fonts too small and having a dark background with grey font, idiotic! I cant view any of my videos in MY GALLERY, i always get “MY GALLERY HAS UNFORTUNATELY STOPPED” message, everything runs alot slower, apps start running on their own, battery life has been very weak….too many more issues to keep going. I really love my droid4 and havent had any issues til the new update but if things really dont start to shape up i might as well just quit my contract and go else where.

I do not like this upgrade. How can I revert back to the old system? I can barely read the letters. The colors are so boring as well. It looks more like an iphone.
