If this phone dies, my backup is an old Palm Centro. And if that fails, it's back to the Samsung D407. So, I take *really* good care of this phone.
[G2 and Desire Z General] ill_dawg:
I had my N1 stolen a month ago, and now I'm on my old TyTN 2, with android flashed onto it. Can't wait to pick up my new DZ when I go to the states next month. It's already at home waiting for me.
[G2 and Desire Z General] sundar2012:
To round out this story...

I just sold that CLIQ for $100.
[G2 and Desire Z General] BlawkHawk:
You're lucky you've even got that. If my G2 ever breaks and I can't send it in, I'm stuck with an old Samsung T349. But that was a pretty good story there.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Davidion:
As someone who's been looking to get rid of his Cliq XT but never got around to it, you're a more forgiving man than I. haha
[G2 and Desire Z General] scottmog:
my wife and i both have g2s, the spare is the new motorola cliq in the closet lol
[G2 and Desire Z General] dhilberg:
Heh, my Cliq is in my night stand collecting dust. I haven't touched it since I got my G2 about four months ago.

I may break it out though as the guys over at Simply Android have ported over CM7 for it. Curious to see how it runs.
[G2 and Desire Z General] blackknightavalon:
Wow. That story almost matches mine. My G1 crapped out on me, the dev community for the Cliq is tiny at best (with Handler and j_r0dd doing all the work), but my G2 still works and I abuse the f--k out of it. I was thinking of getting either the G2x or the Sidekick 4G next.

Oh, I still use the Cliq...just to make sure my laptop can still read Motorola devices.
[Captivate General] lyrad12:
I just wanna share guys my experience. dont be mad for those who r using custom roms but, I'm in completely stock rom of the official froyo by at&t,

b4 I update my cappy from eclair to official froyo, the gps was really sucks! cant get a lock, then after I update to d official froyo, I did a hard reset of my phone, not the factory reset data but the HARD RESET method using the dialer method, and now my gps was working flawlesly and satisfied than before, I have this phone last sept10 build 1008.. completely stock.. the gps is working now almost a month after the feb24 of the official froyo release..

so now I think I dont really believe that its the hardware thing for the gps issue but it is also the software..
[Captivate General] Miami_Son:
Come back in a week or so and tell us. Lots of people have good GPS on a new phone or new ROM flash. Many also watch it degrade over time.
[Captivate General] mobileseq:
Mine had bad gps locks and sometimes has mind of its own. It is the worst gps thing to date. Even worse than my old gps device.

^^This^^ makes your story old. We knew this all ready but thanks for reminding me. ;)
[Captivate General] Splashin:
I just flashed back to stock (I'm warranty returning for pos gps) and updated to official froyo from ultimate phoenix and have yet to get a lock. With phoenix and serendipity I would get ok locks but unreliable tracking.
[Captivate General] lyrad12:
oops I'm back! almost 2months since the update from froyo and still my gps doing awesome! my plan of buying bluetooth gps was recoil, hopefully till next month though, I'll be back after another month
[Captivate General] lyrad12:
still good on stock 2.2..navigation is 97% accurate! SD to LA for 2hrs smoothly navigating!i just make sure that the phone is placed near the front windshield glass for better gps cgnal.I'm satisfied now
[Captivate General] InfiniteNomad:
Hard reset thru dialer? Mind sharing method? Gps on my non rooted froyo cappy is hit and miss.
[Captivate General] cappysw10:
Complete luck to get a phone with a working gps out of the box.
[Captivate General] pkadavid:
I agree, cappysw10. See my here about my GPS problems. I got a second Cappy, and it's been dead on since November. Since AT&T (mostly) won't accept a return for GPS performance reasons, if you come up with a different one, then you can possibly get a phone with flawless GPS. You have a year from your original purchase date, and we are all still within that year.

Edit: so all in all it seems in the end im going with motorola, they have said they will fix if $200 cold hard cash. best price i can find
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
Call and find out?
[Xoom General] richardjr:
Man that sucks, well the good news is you bought one of the easiest devices to take apart, if you don't have a Verizon contract I would look to you homeowners insurance to see if they would cover replacement, if renting possibly rental insurance, otherwise I would check with the manufacturer, in this case Motorola or Gorilla Glass about either fixing it or a replacement part, again since you have the advantage of a unit that is fairly simple to break down you should be able to do it yourself; there are already several parts breakdowns on the web. Good luck.

I should note it would also depend on whether you just broke the outside glass or the LCD display itself, if only the glass, probably easy, if the LCD display, well that might involve some soldering, hopefully a connector.
[Xoom General] e.mote:
@OP

I'd also try 3rd-party iPad repair services and see if any can service you, or give you pointers as to where to go. There are already millions of iPads out in the field, and cracked glass damage is probably the most common.

You can start here, http://google.com/search?q=ipad+glass+repair

Alternatively, a more direct route, http://google.com/search?q=xoom+glass+repair
[Xoom General] cwizardtx:
$299 ouch.
[Xoom General] musashiken:
Eeww, I suppose Gorilla Glass isn't as tough as I thought?
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
There isn't a pane of glass in the world that wouldn't crack if you dropped it on the corner....
[Xoom General] musashiken:
Yeah point taken. Still dang freak accident.
[Xoom General] wang1404:
Oh Damn, beauty got scratches. ;(. Try calling motorola to see what they can do about it. That is why a case is so important.
[Xoom General] patass:
ouch, damn...Maybe I will buy a case on Sunday...
[Xoom General] vizir:
gorilla glass is basically high tension glass which resists scratches. but because of internal high tension it cracks easier than regular glass. see iphone4 back glass breakages. while it resists scratches, if scratched it shatters/cracks easily.
[Xoom General] erzhik:
I would call Moto and tell them you were the very first adopter and accidentally cracked it. Maybe they will give you a free glass replacement. You never know.
[Xoom General] HorsexD:
What About Bullet proof Glass. Then again I Guess it would Depend on how big the Drop is :rolleyes:
[Xoom General] js042507:
@TeeQ

Man, that really sucks! I would be pissed off. :o But there may be some hope? The warranty states that any accident, abuse, etc.. is not covered. Now, since this is a very new device, Motorola may sympathize the situation. Just give them a call, and explain what happened. It can't hurt. And if you're respectful they may find a way around the "fine print". If they don't honor the warranty, then I guess the best option would be to use some insurance policy you may have, as a previous user had suggested. So, before you get ripped from some 'service repair shop', call Motorola. And don't lie. Just be honest and kind. :cool:

Good luck!
[Xoom General] smilepak:
Is it even Gorilla Glass? I know HTC doesn't use them and Samsung does. Not sure about Motorola.
[Xoom General] axc630:
Bullet proof glass isn't exactly glass though. It's layers of glass and composites that are sandwiched together. If you did drop a piece on it's corner it would probably shatter the glass portion, but wouldn't break. Glass would just be spider webbed.
[Xoom General] Sirchuk:
Did you buy it on a credit card? Some have protection plans, like Amex does 90 days accidental damage protection and theft protection. Might be worth looking into. I use it for all my big electronic purchases.

I looked through the forums and couldn't find a good answer. I really like the bottom sense dock in one of the older roms that I used and wanna use that to replace the bottom htc dock that I have on right now....(the app drawer phone and widget sense bar at the bottom). Is there any way I can switch them out?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
There may be a simpler way I'm unaware of, off the top of my head, but you could set up LauncherPro Plus to look like it. It's not that far off the way it comes already.

Downloaded kernel_2.6.29-5f084974.zip and installed the kernel via the recovery mode, now the touch screen doesn't work and I can not access the recovery mod to load other kernel nor reinstall everything if necessary

Please give me an advise :/

[Atrix 4G General] dLo GSR:
there are 2 - adeo and gingerblur. both are pretty popular. check the dev forum.
[Atrix 4G General] i.mac:
If you have the Bell Atrix, you really have one (or none) option. I think Adeo works with the Bell version, according to some of the threads I've read.
[Atrix 4G General] SysAdmNj:
I do not have bell.

So how do I backup my system data/apps before trying the roms? Im so used to cwm to install roms/nandroid backup/restores. Is titanium bu the preferred backup tool on the atrix?

Whats the safest procedure. Say I try one and then want to try the other. Do I have to constantly sbf?

Im aware im limited on mods as compared to the inspire but hey at least I can make and recieve calls. Another question, how can I disable haptic feedback?
[Atrix 4G General] Mustang302LX:
GingerBlur Beta 7.1 is an awesome ROM and the dev is great with updates and help as well.
[Atrix 4G General] TheLlamaGod:
you can turn off haptic feedback with spare parts
[Atrix 4G General] Mafisometal:
i suggest run Adeo for now until Gingerblur is out of beta...i've read some posts about random problems that occur on different phones...it's a bit of gamble right now.

Gingerblur is really promising, but it does have drawbacks, Adeo...you can't go wrong.
[Atrix 4G General] SysAdmNj:
Ok, I'll try that first.

But how would I get back to the way I originally had my phone?

What kind of difference am I going to notice with this rom? I mean, Im running ADW launcher, and have run launcher pro before. Is this the type of difference I will notice?

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the12nv:
Quick question for my awesome XDA'ers. I am upgrading to a HTC Evo tomorrow.....yeah ....yeah....finally. As a result I need to unroot my phone so that I can sell it on EBay. I tried once before to unroot by using the latest RUU and recieved a Bootloader Error 140. Further reading explained that this is due to my HBoot being 1.47. My question to you all is, I came accross this link for changing to S-Off in HBoot. If I do this, should I be able to install the latest RUU. Once installed, should I be able to change back to S-On and thus the phone is unrooted?? Any and All help is appreciated.

Side note - the people on the CDMA Hero XDA forums have been awesome people. I thank all of you and hopefully the Evo people are just as cool!!!

Thanks

***Thanks to you all - the unrooting worked like a charm - for anyone that wants to unroot, I believe this is the easiest process - less than 20 minutes

My process was as follows

** Go to http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/forever and download zip (place on SD card)

** Got to http://geekfor.me/hero/radios/radio-242010427/ and downgrade radio from .29 (place on SD card)

** Go to http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=Hero_CDMA&oldid=9386#2.1_Sense_Based_ROMs and find a 2.1 Rom to download (I chose NFX Sprint - first one)

From here all you do in flash, flash, flash. First flash the Rom and allow it to get up and running (no need to sign in). Once it has settled -remove battery and flash the downloaded radio (go to http://geekfor.me/faq/flash-radio/ if you have questions). Once completed, reboot phone and allow to settle in. Remove battery and in bootloader screen you should see that the battery has been downgraded to .27. Now you can flash the unrevoked forever (just like any ROM). Once flashing is complete, go back to bootloader screes and you will notice it says S-Off. Reboot phone and allow to settle in. From here all you need is a HTC/Sprint authorized RUU ( you can find one on the WIKI above) and follow the directions. Now things will appear to be going as normal and then you will recieve a 155 Error on your computer, never mind it, look at your phone and you will see that it is still downloading. Wait till everything has downloaded and all you see is RUU in Red. Remove battery and press power and allow to boot up. Your phone is now unrooted. You can tell my looking at the Kernel which is now a HTC kernal and you can try to do a HTC Update. IN NO WAY DO I TAKE ANY CREDIT FOR ANY OF THIS. I just know how to google my ass off and the people on XDA have been awesome in answering questions. This is my first time creating directions, so bare with me. I don't know much, so keep the questions basic. Like I said before, this was my process and it worked...now on to sell the phone on EBay. FYI, the Hero was awesome, but this damn EVO is crazy!!!

Happy Unrooting!!!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aqualls:
Unrevoked forever has an s-on zip to fix your bootloader issue. From there you can run RUU. I never had a problem unrooting with s-off and I'm the same version. You can try super one click. It has an unroot option.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the12nv:
Super 1 click???...ill look for it...and I will try the s-off...thanks for the response

are you saying you have a fully functional gingerbread rom that works -- without issue -- on the fascinate?

Killer news if this is working/true
[Fascinate Android Development] chadouming:
I got it working for over a week now, only one kernel panic. Which would probably had happen on I9000 since it's at beta stage.

You can also flash your favorite froyo modem ( not eclair one). Yes its perfectly working except no way to enter receovery and download by booting and holding key. In my case, i only lost download cause recovery was not working anyway.
[Fascinate Android Development] CGriffiths86:
I would like some more info as well. It just seems that if it was this easy to do it would have been done long ago. If it is working then of course I'm sure we would all love to know how to get it done and this could help our devs a lot too. Also, if you are not able to get into recovery by holding the keys can it still be accessed by Clockwork Manager or the "recovery"option in most roms?
[Fascinate Android Development] chadouming:
I dont have a verizon phone to test rom with them, but hardware inside is the same than telus fascinate. I got it working in fact by accident, first rom i flashed was an I9000 rom, then i followed there rom since there's a lot more evolution on their forum than on our. I flashed GB as well and i bricked my phone first time ( Tried to flash an eclair modem, stupid thing ). With a home made jig i know have (I will always keep it :D ), i got it back into download mode, and installed GB easy with odin. Followed the instruction to install stock XWJV1 from

I9000 forum. From that rom, i activated the debug mode (Setting - application- debug mode), made a little script (adb reboot download), got back into download and install supercurio voodoo injected kernel. Finally, i installed most of the custom rom out there. Every single rom was working. But i'm still unable to install CM7. So the answer is yes, with this rom i have a perfectly working gingerbread rom.

edit : Forgot to answer other question. Most of the custom rom for I9000 got extend shutdown menu with reboot to recovery/download option
[Fascinate Android Development] CGriffiths86:
