[Defy Android Development] seeker3000:
thanks all

thanks all for your replies.

i have tried "no lock" before i posted this thread. ive tried alot of those no lock screen apps and none of them do what i want.

when i use no lock, it just stops me from using any app that can turn off screen.

:(

well, i guess there cant be much done.

if anyone else has any advice it would be much appreciated, other wise thank you all.
[Defy Android Development] stunno:
I'm not sure I've read this thread correctly but I'm quite happy for the screen to time out and turn off the screen, but I don't want to have to swipe to turn it back on. pressing the power button should be the only action. to revive the homescreen.

would no lock achieve this?
[Defy Android Development] seeker3000:
the thing i want to do is make it so that i can turn off my phone with an icon instead of using the power button. i found apps to do that however they dont turn off my screen, instead they lock my phone so the screen is still on but locked.

i just want it to turn off as if i was using my power button.

"no lock" app stops my phone from going into lock screen at all, however it stops all the other apps from functioning.

maybe if i could change the time that the lock screen stays on would be good enough for me.
[Defy Android Development] ABC_Universal:
When the screen is turned off, most apps will be stopped by design of the android system. Do you mean "no lock" turns off screen and some apps which the power button doesn't? Can you name some of these apps?
[Defy Android Development] seeker3000:
sorry, when i mean stop functioning. im talking about the other screen off apps.

when i have "no lock" activated it stops the screen off apps from working.

basically i just wanna do turn off the screen of the phone just like i do when i click the power button but have the option to use an app.

but from what ive read other androids like sgs it works fine yet for my defy it doesnt.

does anyone else have that problem?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] farmsatguy:
I've apparently done something to my Epic and I can't figure out how to reverse it. Probably because I don't know what I did and/or when.

Since I got my Epic, every time I first boot it up after installing a ROM (whether it is custom or going back to a stock image), the Setup Wizard fires up, asks the usual questions, gets my google account info, and then automatically syncs my contacts and apps I've downloaded for the market. I've read plenty of posts where folks don't like this and will cancel the process so they can do it manually. Personally, I like that feature but it no longer works no matter what ROM I flash.

I first noticed it when I was on ViperRom 4.0.4. I wanted to upgrade to ViperRom 5, the newest release, and since I was on DK28 based rom, I wanted to first flash the stock EB13. It all went smooth as silk but when EB13 started for the first time, the Wizard didn't start asking me setup the phone for the first time. It just went straight to the stock launcher (TouchWiz I assume). And yes, I did all the custommary wiping of the 3 finger salute before I started. Bottom line, I just took mental note of it but moved on because EB13 was just a stepping stone for what I wanted to do. So, 3-finger salute, lotsa wiping, then flashed Synergy (ViperRom 5.0). Again, absolutely no problems. But again, the Setup Wizard didn't fire up. Hmmm...

So, I re-wipe, re-flash, and still no wizard. Grrrr... Since then, every rom I've installed/flashed has not once had the Setup Wizard fire up! WTH??? LOL. At the moment, I've Odined back to DI18 (just for the hell of it mainly). So I'm on DI18, RFS, not rooted, just like it came out of the box....no wizard?

What did I do? How do I re-enable the SetupWizard.apk (assuming that's what it is). I know the file is there in system/app because with every rom, I could use astro or root explorer and see that it is where it belongs. Of, course if I try to run it from one of the explorer apps, I get an error message, but doing a full wipe/restore to DI18 should have let the apk run, right? Have the permissions been altered to not let it run? Is this something I can correct with ADB?

Any help would be most appreciated and welcome.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MysteryEmotionz:
The rom dev needs to enable it. It has been disabled by them
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul627g:
Yep the ROM devs have to enable it. Otherwise whenever you go to Market or GMail for the first time it will ask you to enter your Google information, (the Android Setup Wizard kicks in...)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] farmsatguy:
I had thought that might be the case, but if they disable it, is it disabled forever?

When I installed ViperRom 4.0.4 (Trinity I believe, the last of their DK28 based roms), it was there and working. The wizard fired up after the first bootup of Trinity and everything went as normal as can be. I used Trinity, and only Trinity, until version 5 (Synergy) was released. I didn't flash/odin a single rom the entire time I was on 4.0.4 as it met all my needs. EB13 was released during this period but I resisted the temptation to try it figuring I'd wait until TPhillips released his next ROM (excellent job btw). So, the next thing I finally flashed (actually it was Odin) was EB13 since the dev's instructions said to be on EB13 before flashing Synergy (ViperRom 5.0). THAT is when it happened. When EB13 fired up for the very first time, no SetupWizard! But it was there for the previous ROM (ViperRom's Trinity 4.0.4) and gone when I went to EB13 a month or so later. So, by that reasoning, it was disabled in EB13 because that is the first time it didn't fire up. And, it hasn't fired up since. I've flashed 3 or 4 times since then, as recently as this morning when I Odined back to DI18, but the last time I saw the SetupWizard was when I installed Trinity (a month and a half ago I guess). I could understand custom rom dev's disabling it, but this happened when I Odined a stock EB13. I can't see Samsung and/or Sprint disabling it. And I know it was there on DI18, but it didn't fire off this morning.

Somewhere, I must have goofed something up, and I do believe I need to change a permission setting somewhere (the file is where it belongs), I'm just not sure what to do or even why it happened. When I odined the stock DI18, i would have thought that would reset every setting/permission/flag there was...but it didn't! So, I have to wonder is there anything else not properly "permissioned" since whatever this is has "stuck" through maybe half a dozen flashes & odin's...plus it started when I flashed a stock recovery.

To me atleast, this is really weird!?!

Thanks for the replies, I thanked you both. But, any other ideas?

And for the record, I do know that when I go to the Market or Gmail the first time, I get to enter all my info and everything is fine. But, the ONLY time (that I know of anyway) that all of my previous apps (like 75 of them give or take) will automatically download and install is if I get that setup wizard to fire the very first time the phone starts up after a fresh install. If one cancels (or in my case doesn't get to do it), then I have to go to the market and install the stuff myself. Of course, I have both TitaniumBackup (pro version, I lbelieve in supporting the devs) and MyBackupRoot, so it's not like I'm screwed or anything, I just "LIKE" for it to be all automated...it just feels fresh that way! LOL.

This isn't like a huge problem, I'm just more curious as to what happened than anything else and wondering why odining back to stock (either DI18, DK28, or EB13) doesn't reset things to make this work like it should...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MysteryEmotionz:
Samsung has it disabled. its been disabled since the phones release. Some devs enabled it for there custom roms for some time.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] farmsatguy:
Well, that makes a lot more sense then. Because it was EB13 that was the first time I didn't see it. Just out of curiousity, what would I need to modify to make it work in a rom, or am I just pissing in the wind. For example, can I modify something in a rom (lets say Synergy from Team Viper since thats what I'm using at the moment), perhaps in ADB, before I flash it so that the apk fires up to start. Or, can I take the .apk's of my favorite apps and "drop" them in the rom (I know not to extract a rom from the zip file then re-zip it after making changes) so that they install with the rom when I flash it, like a ViperRom or Syndicate. They would go in the data/app folder, right? Or, just quit my *****ing and deal with it? LOL.

Really, mystery, thanks for your time...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MysteryEmotionz:
Your just pissing in the wind so why don't you just stfu ;).

I'm not sure how to enable. I think its something in the build.prop. Your gonna have to ask a rom dev to get a def awnser.

As far as adding your own apps you can just add them to the data/app and they will automatically install when you flash the rom.

If your worried about your apps you can always try syndicate or bonsia. There script backs up the user apps then wipes everything. Once the rom installs it automatically restores your apps and phone to where it was before flashing.

Your welcome
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattallica76:
SetupWizard was only one part of the process. They removed GoogleBackupTransport (the other part) in EB13. Even if you enable the SetUp Wizard in the build.prop, it won't restore any apps other than the ones you purchased. The googlebackuptransport.apk from DK28 is not compatible with EB13/EC05.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] farmsatguy:
LOL! Damn, I can't remember the last time I was b^tch slapped like that! Damn, that's what u get for thanking a guy (or gal) twice in one day!:D

OK, so I hit the brakes on the SetupWizard and dropped a pile of APK's that I like in the data/app folder. I had read before that one could do that with zip's flashed in CWM. Actually what I read talked about taking stuff out if you didn't want it (like when all the Sprint and/or Samsung apps were rolled into one big zip to flash, the OP had said just take out anything you didn't want), so I had figured the reverse was true and I could drop apk's in. I just wasn't sure about a ROM. Anyway, it worked perfect...

Oh, and Mystery...bite me! ;)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MysteryEmotionz:
Glad it worked for you and I have been some assistance.

I gladly will ;)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul627g:
You know I asked this question many of times to a few devs and everyone just said change the build.prop from DISABLED to OPTIONAL for SetupWizard. Which I did and I went as far as to decompile the setupwizard.apk to see that the coding was still there for the backup and restore but for the life of me I couldn't get it to function.

You are the first to come up with a different response saying the googlebackuptransport.apk, which makes perfect sense. Why nobody has ever taken the second to explain that further than the build.prop response I have no idea.

Thanks, at least my endless wondering of what happened between DK28 and EB13 now has a answer.

Hi all,

After recently installing Leedroid, I have yet to find the two things mentioned above, everything else seems in place, so I doubt the flash was unsuccessful. Can a kind somebody help me out at least locate the default location for those two? Or were they removed and the mentioning of them in the ROM description is just a reminder of those old times? I was really looking forward to a nice console on the phone.

[Atrix 4G General] zanzee:
Is there some way to add in a fixes while using the AT&T Atrix on Rogers for new voice mail icon always on, sms having the wrong time and pay phone displayed for some incoming calls? I had none of these issues on my nexus, both cm and stock. Thanks.

*UPDATE*

After trying my sim in several different phones and not being able to recreate the constant new voicemail displayed I tried swapping out my sim for a newer one and the icon seems to be gone for now. I also asked the rogers rep to exclude "name display" for the third time and I hope it finally works.
[Atrix 4G General] MKVFTW:
The voicemail icon is not a problem for me. SMS Time Fix fixes the time stamp issue and calling rogers and getting them to exclude the "name display" option on your call display fixes the payphone problem.
[Atrix 4G General] scorneil:
exact same for me
[Atrix 4G General] zanzee:

I had the vm issue on my galaxy vibrant before. Just call your no, leave a vm message. Then check your vm and listen to it and erase it. That fixed it for me
[Atrix 4G General] zanzee:
Yeah I've tried that... I even tried that putting my sim into my nexus(the nexus didn't show an icon but I did it anyways).
[Atrix 4G General] Silent8Strike:
The VM issue is a Rogers problem, one that I had on my old G1 too. You have to call them and go through all their useless troubleshooting. None of it works of course, so in the end I had to have my VM account removed and re set up and that fixed it.
[Atrix 4G General] zanzee:
yeah just seems weird, my nexus doesn't do any of these weird bugs. I really hope one of the scripters can fix these issues. I'm using gingerblur now, I wonder if some settings and stuff can be imported from CM or similar.
[Atrix 4G General] bongd:
Hey guys, there is a known issue. Call in and ask that the CSRs please "exclude name display" from your account. This will resolve the incoming caller ID issue. A reboot shouldn't be required but wouldn't hurt.

For voicemail, please leave a voicemail and then check it. Either delete or save the message by hitting 7 or 9, and then hit # after to back out of the menus before ending the call. Too soon and the voicemail waiting indicator would stay. It irritates the heck out of me but you don't have to put up with it. It will go away if you do this.

Sometimes you may need to add/remove voicemail from your account. A CSR will do this and TSRs may be empowered to make this account change as long as it pertains to troubleshooting.. not too sure.

Any data issues too, get the TSR dept to reset the network connection from their end. They'll have you power cycle and it will fix data issues. My bud had a problem but I patched it up for him via Chat Support.

I'm on Rogers too and my Atrix is working flawlessly :)

[Atrix 4G General] zanzee:
I wouldn't call it flawless, but yeah once you have the proper apn's it works fine call wise and data wise. It's just some little things that need to be ironed out. Hopefully once the Atrix goes global we'll see that disapear.
[Atrix 4G General] bongd:
What's not working so well for you? I've got a couple connections at Rogers and I'm pretty familiar with things. Maybe I can help.
[Atrix 4G General] zanzee:
Name display and if you use network time(or use sms time fix) your sms is way out. The network time is really useful for me as I travel a lot. The name display is also useful for knowing who someone is while I'm not at home so I don't pay long distance. The new voicemail thing is annoying and seems weird that it doesn't do it on my nexus, tilt or e71.

*UPDATE*

After trying my sim in several different phones and not being able to recreate the constant new voicemail displayed I tried swapping out my sim for a newer one and the icon seems to be gone for now. I also asked the rogers rep to exclude "name display" for the third time and I hope it finally works.

Hello everyone. What's a good quadrant score for a stock 860? I have been seeing 2600-2650 on average, is this fairly common for this model? Is there a good way to prepare to take the test by closing apps, features etc?
[Atrix 4G General] nickgto:
Ive been averaging consistent 2500 of four attempts in quadrant after the 4.1.57 update. I normally run it just after start up and I get those scores.
[Atrix 4G General] Hianz:
I achieved 2740 with 4.1.57
[Atrix 4G General] Clienterror:
I've gotten around 2900 once, but it usually falls between 2650 and 2800. To be fair though Quadrant only tests a single core, if you compare it vs say an inspire on stock rom (Or probably even a custom) at stock clocks it will only get about 1900-2100. So really the Atrix gets 20%-30% better scores and it's only using 1 of 2 cores. Another thing you'd notice on the Atrix is it has nearly no slowdowns, even an Inspire running at a 1.8 OC (battery life is horrible) will bog when you install/update programs while doing something else because it's still a single core and needs to share cycles across programs where the Atrix can devote a core to all background activities and the other to what you're doing in the foreground. I didn't really notice how fast the Atrix was until I had to fix something on my girlfriends Captivate (Gave her mine when I upgraded) and she has like 25 apps and a custom rom with a 1.4 OC and OMG it felt so slow compared to my Atrix.
[Atrix 4G General] lyon21:
I got a 2774 with the gingerblur ROM. That's the best I've ever gotten and I've run it on stock, 1.52, the new update and gingerblur. Gingerblur has gotten me, by far the highest and most consistent scores of all. I usually run between 2600-2750 under normal usage, which is quite a bit.
