If that is your only problem I wouldn't recommend playing the roulette game that is Verizon's Certified Like New program. There is little to no quality control and I managed to get 2 Incredibles that were completely unusable before finally getting one that worked at all.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] retsnom:
Wait, they don't give you a new replacement? I'm still within in 14 day return period if that makes any difference.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zerocool79346:
Hmm, I'm actually not sure about that situation, I would demand it if I were you. But I can promise if you get outside of the 14 day return period you won't get anything but used, and a little light leakage is nothing compared to what you might end up with.

Yea I resetted my phone now its working again.
[Atrix 4G General] seh6183:
OK I have searched in here and for the most part I am finding no helpful information because 90% of you have no desire to disable JUST 3g. The only ones that are concerned are people like myself who have 1 bar of 3g for the majority of the day, whereas edge is providing 3 bars. Its really hard on my battery (and annoying) for my phone to constanly look for 3g only to find 1 bar and maintain it for about 3 minutes, it then defaults to edge again until 5 minutes later it sees that 1 bar of 3g again. This is at my work which has lead lined walls ( I work in Radiology).

I would like to disable 3g and force edge throughout the day. I use wifi at work for data but want to be able to text without it eating up my battery. Can someone please find a way to edit a file in the operation system to allow this?

Just to let you know I have already tried all the widgets available including anycut and none of them are providing this function for me. anycut will give me what appears to be a toggle of "2g networks only" but it actually does nothing, nor does it stick when I exit the setting page. I also tried accessing the menu from the dial pad to force 2g only but the options never stick, nor am I interested in typing *#*#4636#*#* every morning when I get to work. Please help me find a simple solution. Thanks!
[Atrix 4G General] nazrin313:
I did it only by enabling gsm only in *#*#4636#*#*

Worked for me...now im only on edge
[Atrix 4G General] spline1:
Take the App "Any cut" an put a widget on the desk (UMTS options)

it works.
[Atrix 4G General] dvigue:
What am I doing wrong? Inhale used the 4636 method and it never ever changes from h+ to edge . After in change it is ther a special way ton"save" the settings? I back out or hit the home button....very frustrating it works for others but not for me
[Atrix 4G General] dvigue:
i did this, and i see the 2g box, checked it, and i still het the H+...wtf?
[Atrix 4G General] spline1:
I dont know. I have H+ and test with "speedtest", i have(kbit 5300)and when I press anycut button (UMTS) I see "E" and have speed of 120 kbits.

when it takes 5-10 seconds to switch
[Atrix 4G General] franciscojavierleon:
you guys probably need to UNCHECK the option to select the operator automatically in settings, so it doesn't get overridden
[Atrix 4G General] dvigue:
uder the UMTS options? there is no check box, only the optoion to automattily select operator.
[Atrix 4G General] spline1:
Jepp, AT&T disable this option.
[Atrix 4G General] dvigue:
Went home to test the 3g theory, and i always get H+ when i put my phone in the kitchen window. one bar. today, EDGE all the time i was home with full signal. so the 2g Toggle DOES work i guess.....
[Atrix 4G General] seh6183:
I can not get the 2g toggle to work at all. Its also strange to me that I can't get any network settings to stick from the dial pad menu either. It seems as if those of us who can't get it to work have a read only network file or something. For those who got it to work, are you on att? What else can you tell us about your phones? What procedure did you go through exactly to get it to work?

I have an att Atrix that is rooted and running that custom Adeo rom from this forum.

I installed the abycut app. Placed bother gsm/umts settings pages from anycut onto one of my desktops, then tried both tick boxes on each to enable 2g only. This did not work. I also went into the extra settings from there and tried to manually set networks and what not and I am just not able to get edge to stick. I have toggled airplane mode after setting them, tried different combinations, and have rebooted the phone.

Has anyone with att got this to work?
[Atrix 4G General] zen kun:

Not only is that extremely impractical, it flat out doesn't work. The settings won't stick.

Like I said im almost certain my carrier or network folder is read only or something.

Use root explorer to switch your folders from ro-r/w
[Atrix 4G General] seh6183:
Don't have root explorer and im at work, but I can try when I get home. Can anyone else test this in the meantime?
[Atrix 4G General] dvigue:
It worked for me all day guys. i NEVER got h+ and same at home. my signal was perfect all day and my battery did better

all i did was i clicked the 2g box, then pressed HOME not back. then did the 4636 thing and seleced GSM ONLY and it stayed all day. i have not tested it after reboot, im sure ill have to do it again, but i am very happy with this....

i also after getting into the UMTS screen disabled "automatic" by searching my providers and selecting ATT. wanted to mention that too...
[Atrix 4G General] seh6183:
Was is the any cut app or the 4636 that did it? Can you play around with it and find out please?
[Atrix 4G General] seh6183:
I'm going to blow my brains out.

I just tried 800 combinations of settings using anycut and the 4636 menu and NOTHING WORKS. I tried doing what the last poster said, I tried every setting and then toggled airplane mode, I went info 4636 and even toggled the radio to CDMA! Nothing would force edge. Nothing.

I will pay 1.5 million dollars for an app that toggles:

Off

GPRS only

EDGE only

3G Only

HSPA+ Only
[Atrix 4G General] dvigue:
i did both. im telling you guys. it worked for me. all day yesterday...
[Atrix 4G General] seh6183:
The 2g toggle for me is still not functional. I am using the first of the two GSM/UMTS. If I try to manually select my network as "AT&T" the phone loses signal and won't find signal of any kind. I let it sit for 10 minutes even. I tried all 3 network selections under the search for networks option.

I then went back into 4636 and tried "gsm only" again. I used the home button to exit. I let it sit for 10 minutes as well. I also toggle airplane mode and it immediately found H+.

W.T.F

[Atrix 4G General] sanriver12:
is this what you guys are looking for?

"Want to quickly toggle Internet connection preferences on your Android phone? APNdroid is a free application available in the Android market which lets you enable or disable mobile data transfer over 3G/EDGE/GPRS Internet network, thus saving bandwidth when not required.

You can add APNdroid as a widget to your Home screen and quickly toggle Internet on or off. The application works by disabling or enabling all APNs and is quite helpful when it comes to saving your battery. So whenever you feel you only need basic call and SMS functionality on your phone, switch off the mobile data transfer protocols to get more battery life.

APNdroid lets you keep MMS and state notifications enabled, while still having the data transfer turned off. APNdroid comes with a plug-in which integrates with the Locale app for Android. The Locale app lets you automate your device based on locale, battery state etc. So using this plugin, you can easily configure APNdroid to turn off your mobile data connection whenever your battery reaches a certain leftover percentage."

Hey great work! I will try this one soon.

Sidenote: what is the name of the volume bar .png? I could not find it in the framework!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] CC Lemon:
Followed instructions and it worked perfectly... was my first successful adb push! I liked the colors and icons a little bit more on this one for some reason.

Is there a reason the notifications and preferences icons don't have the same color scheme? Aside from that, really enjoy all the icons and colors!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] G-Man.:
dbefore, Nice Work!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] dbefore:
yea... the notifications icon that launcher pro uses for its settings menu is inside the launcher pro app... i will be theme-ing that and a whole lot of other google apps to go with this...

@olieebur the volume bar colors are in framework\res\drawable\progress_horizontal.xml and the .png is named progressbar_indeterminate1, 2, and 3

also this is not perfect.... let me know some bugs you find and i will try to fix it... and as obsessionXYZ adds updates to his theme i will also add his fixes.

[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] blaque72:
You is using oneclick for shell access(temp root) not rooting with it. the instructions are for deodexed non-rooted devices
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Ririal:
Yup was my mistake, apologies :) Thanks for clarification.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] domin8:
is it possible to use root explorer to place these files on the phone and then reboot?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] dbefore:
Yes... and no... you can but you would have a 90% chance of a boot loop. You see... when copying and pasting with root exeplorer,... root exeplore has a tendency of not setting the same permissions as the file it replaces. So if the permissions are not the same then you will get a boot loop. You can change the permissions manually.... but some times when replacing the framework, the system reboots its self... leaving you unable to change the permissions.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] alex_herrero:
Maybe you can copy both files to, let's say, /system, change their permissions to the right ones, and then do the copy. I usually do that in other devices and it ended successfully. Unfortunately, I don't have my Atrix with me (yet) to test it out. Maybe it works, maybe not. Do it at your own risk, and of course, report back!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] domin8:
ah ok, that must have been what caused my first boot loop (the mismatched permissions) it was pre-sbf so i returned the phone for another one. Next time i'm feeling frisky i'll give it a shot (for whatever reason i suck at adb)

Do NOT install this on 1.57. That update is not deodexed yet and you will have issues, and you phone could potentially brick.

[Touch HD General] emadadelme:
I want to know how to install new updates ?

There are many files that is usually updated

modules-xxxxxxx.tar.gz

zImage

rootfs.img

system.ext2

froyo.user.conf

my question is .. it it enough to just replace files to memory card and when pre-installed Andriod starts it will use the new file

or I have to format the memory card and paste the files before install Andriod ?

Also it would be nice if someone can share any tutorial about these files and the role of each one ?
[Touch HD General] g3rm0:
Updates that should not require formatting SD card (or other changes):

-> zImage and modules-xxxxxx.tar.gz - linux kernel image and the corresponding modules, they need to be updated both at the same time

-> rootfs.img - root file system image

-> initrd.gz - initial ram disk

-> XXXX.user.conf - additional boot options (swap/compcache/other stuff)

You don't have to but I would say it is better to remove the data.img file (data partition image) prior to updating system.ext2 (Android system). Android will create a new one in this case but all your personal data and settings will be lost.

You should be able to update pretty much everything w/o problems but in some cases something may go wrong. Always backup your data.img before updates - just to be safe.

Formatting SD card is required only when the file system is broken (one of the symptoms is Android's inability to read anything from the SD card).

Everyone knows by now that the Atrix mounts do not work with most cases, especially with the Otterbox Defender case since it is rather large. In my quest for a car windshield mount I happened to come across an extra mount for my garmin Nuvi GPS that I had sitting around. After checking out the size I realized it could easily be modified to be used with the Atrix Otterbox Defender case.

What you need:

Motorola Atrix Otterbox Defender Case

Garmin Nuvi windshield mount (cheap on ebay) http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_trksid=m570&_nkw=garmin+nuvi+mount&_sacat=See-All-Categories

"Compatible Models: Garmin NUVI 200, 200W, 205, 205W, 250, 250W, 255, 255W, 260, 260W, 265T, 265WT, 270, 275T. "

Thin Foam padding (I used some I had left over from an Air conditioner installation)

Scissors

Dremel & #420 Cutoff wheel

All you need to do is trim the bottom and top "tabs" for the Garmin mount with your dremel cutoff wheel. While I didn't do the cleanest job, I'm sure you can make it look nicer if you care to. Use the plastic indentations on the Defender case to determine how much to cut off of the Garmin mount.

You will want to start your cuts to the left side of the original Garmin "tab", The reason for this is that you want the phone to sit the furthest to the right hand side as you can get it, so that the flap for the usb power cord plugin can open without hitting anything. By starting to the left side you will have ample room.

After you do the cuts if you test fit your phone in the modified cradle you will notice that there is a bit of side to side play, and if you shake the crap out of it the phone will fall off of the mount. To remedy this situation and put tension onto the new mounts I used my scissors and cut (2) very thin pieces of sticky-backed foam. I had some sitting around from a air conditioner installation, but you should be able to get it anywhere those types of things are sold. Stick them onto the backing as in the photo above and you are done.

That's it. You now have a nice cheap dock for your Otterbox Defender-equipped Atrix.

Enjoy.

:)

Great mod! I've been looking for something like this since I got my otterbox.

I had been toying with the idea of trying to get a hold of an additional belt clip and modding that with a suction cup mount but they aren't available separate from the case.

It's great to see a simple solution that is readily available and inexpensive to boot. :)

Thanks for sharing!
[Atrix 4G Accessories] ECdOc:
Glad I could help, I was in the same predicament. This works great and for cheap. Those mounts sell on ebay for like 4-6 bux or cheaper.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] LuisAlvarez:
There's no need to trim if you already have the belt clip that comes with the defender case, the Garmin Nuvi holder will just clip right to the belt clip...

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kodos96:
So I'm running a rom (Cognition) which enabled tethering and mobile AP.... but I haven't tried using them yet... does anyone know if there's any way for AT&T to see that I'm using tethering without a tethering plan, and bill me for it? I heard about iphone owners using jailbreak tether getting texts from AT&T telling them to buy a tethering plan... does anyone know if on Android they're able to do the same thing?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xhozt:
i doubt it .. but to be sure we would need a pay to inspect packets .
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KritikSS:
No, at&t cannot tell the difference of packets being passed on their network.

No carrier has that capability. The amount of resources needed to monitor packets in a way that is effective, at an effective rate, is basically not cost effective at this point.

The tethering notices are completely based off of data usage. It's been determined that most carriers take notice of you if you exceed 5gb. So if you manage to use over 5gb of data without tethering, you could very well receive one of these texts.

With that said, they can see packet routes. So if your already being watched, and are tethering, and happen to be using it for say...pirating, it could lead to further action. I've only heard one case of this, but still worth noting.

Also, contract prevents at&t, or any carrier for that matter, from adding tethering to your bill. Their work around for that is that if you exceed a data limit, or a fair use limit, they can and will charge you for that.

I tether causally; causally being non-data heavy lurking. I've owned a blackberry bold 9000, an iphone 3g, and now my captivate...all were made tether capable. All were used for tethering. None had received a notice.

Hope this is helps!

tl;dr- no, at&t can't tell if you're tethering.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fatttire:
If you download gigs and gigs because you use your phone as your primary internet they'll get on your case.

they do break your contract if they add tethering charges. You can end it without an early termination penalty within 30 days.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toleraen:
KritikSS nailed it spot on. Some anecdotal evidence, but I've been lightly tethering (usually less than 1GB/month) for years now and haven't heard anything.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
i think the kb1 and jj4 roms have a way to inform att if you are tethering but should not be an issue if you are using a custom rom sepecially if the rom is a port.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kodos96:
Yes, this is what I was worried about... I know that actual deep packet inspection is unlikely (and could be defeated with vpn), but it doesn't help if there's actually a 'phone-home' mechanism telling them you're tethering. My understanding was that this is what's going on with the iphones, though I could be wrong.

I'm running cognition, which is a kb1 based rom... should I be worried?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KritikSS:
As far as a "phone-home" system, the only notification of tethering that would be sent to at&t would be by their own tethering app on the phone. If you happen to flash another ROM, as you've stated that you've already done so, this app should no longer be on your phone and functioning, thus unable to "phone-home."

And even then, that app wont allow tethering until it receives notice from at&t that you've purchased the package needed to do so.

Simply put, just use an app such as "wireless tether" to do your tethering and you'll be completely fine. :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mk2rocco:
I would like to bring this back from the dead. AT&T KNOWS! They sent me a text that stated something like: from your recent activity you will be upgraded to the tethering plan..... I believe it referenced tether specifically though :mad:
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infyx:
If I got that text, I would call and say they violated the contact and end the contract.

They cannot alter the contract without you agreeing to the terms.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Red_81:
Wrong. From the TOS:

I have a samsung captivate, it runs fine but like everyone I'd like it to be a little faster. Now I've been reading into the whole overclocking thing and it sounds awesome but I'd like to get some of your opinions first. There is a app that you can download that allows you to overclock it fairly easily, but I just don't want to kill my phone. What are your opinions? And if you monitor your temp and don't let it get to high, you'd think that I'd be just as safe as if it wasn't overclocked. I've read people having their phone get to 160 degrees, mines not overclocked yet but the highest I've been able to manage is around 110. If I were to overclock, can you give me a idea at what your temp is? And at what temp should I lay off it for a while, thanks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dayloooo:
TBHIMO , i wouldn't overclock because it's fast enough even at 800Mhz (what i'm running at) . i like having a longer lasting phone .

BUT if you are not content with 1Ghz , then i think you should flash a kernel with Xan's Undervolting App compatible and overclock so you can undervolt at higher clock speeds .

not too sure what the temps would be when overclocked since i never OCd my phone . OCing decreases the battery life of the processor FYI .
