First question is this phone WiFi ONLY? My old phone which was a blackberry could access the internet at my house without all this wifi, tethering, etc nonsense.
I cannot get any WiFi connection at my house. Is there a way to connect to net without WiFi or am I going to have to get a different phone?

Thanks for your feedback tcmpdx. Where exactly were you traveling at when you had the issues with no internet access? Are you still experiencing the issues? Depending on your location, this can contribute to the connection issue. I would try power cycling your device to refresh connections to see if it allows you internet access. I am providing a link to our coverage map that perhaps address your concerns of where you were traveling to see if there was coverage in that location. Please put in your location or zip code to check the coverage location. You could also put in the areas were you were traveling to then be provided with coverage information from those areas as well. The link is: http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/CoverageLocatorController?requesttype=NEWREQUEST

You have a Droid X2 ? Internet access is via EITHER WiFi (if you turn it on) or the 3G data connection. If you turn WiFi on, it won't use 3G ... So make sure WiFi is turned OFF to use 3G.
Of maybe you have an incorrect SETTING ? Settings / Wireless & Network Settings / Mobile Networks ... do you have that in HOME ONLY or Automatic? Should be AUTO.

Start there and see what happens.
I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

No 3g symbol. Mobile networks set to auto, wifi off, still nothing. I will try to reactivate it again and or do a factory reset.

Very strange ... yea, I'd try that *228 + 1 thing (again). Also, option 2 will reset your "tower access" points. But you should AT least have a 3G signal to start with. Where did you get the phone? a Verizon store? online? if none of that works and it's brand new (<14 days old), I'd take it to verizon and get a new replacement. If > 14 days, you can get a CPO.

From Verizon online, should have known it was messed up when it was dialing 1 by itself repeatedly when I firsted started the phone up. Most likely sending it back ive done it all and still no 3g.

Have you tried a HARD RESET?

2. Screen will show a Android with a triangle with astrick
3. Let Go of Home Button and Power
4. Press Search Button (Far RIGHT Button)
5. A blue menu will show at top of page, scroll to Format Device

7. Allow format to complete (Information at bottom of page will go through a few steps)
