[Atrix 4G General] jsylvia007:
This app right in the FAQ section says, "Can I use the standard Android Lock Screen", and the answer from the developer is no... Still not what I'm looking for.
[Atrix 4G General] neodoru:
Any luck finding that?
[Atrix 4G General] jsylvia007:
WidgetUnlocker now allegedly supports the finger print scanner of the ATRIX. I have found it unreliable at BEST.

I'm waiting for another release to see if the capability gets more stable.
[Atrix 4G General] neodoru:
The problem with wu is that it's canceling the slide to answer and that renders it useless.

Nolock will prevent full lockscreen but allow to bring out of sleep mode via either volume buttons or power button. The timed sleep mode in settings will put phone to sleep.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] PatrickTheGreat:
Anyone know of a fairly easy way to to send all audio from one phone to another phone, via bluetooth?

My reason for asking is that I would like to set my car up to pair with a bluetooth receiver that plugs into the auxiliary port that my car stereo has. My thought was to use to the OG Droid as the receiver. I have a 2008 vehicle and spent over $1,000 on the navigation head unit when I bought it, so I don't really feel like replacing the head unit just for bluetooth. I thought of this idea while I was playing around with the bluetooth settings, and noticed that my computer can receive all the audio from my phone, so why not my old phone? So, I tried it, and alas, only file transfers were accepted between the two phones.

I currently have a non-rooted Thunderbolt, and an OG Droid that was recently flashed back to vanilla froyo because I was going to sell it. I assume this would only be a driver issue on the Droid, as the Droid was also able to send all of its audio to my computer.

Any ideas?

[Desire General] Aegishua:
Has anyone managed to play Dungeon Defenders flawlessly on the Desire yet? If so, HOW!!!

I personally am using supeROM HD 2.0 D2EXT which is rather fast but I still cant get the fps to stay smooth even in tablet mode and the graphics level on under 50%. Also without damage numbers.

So anyways, I'm certain I'm not the only one with this issue and was wondering what everyone else does to get it going with maybe a certain kernel or application.

ROM: SupeROM HD v.2

Kernel: HAVS Froyo Kernel V5f 1113Mhz max

SetCPU: max 1113Mhz (smartass) min 384

PS: I don't wanna use an AOSP rom to play a game =P
[Desire General] aaa:
I get the feeling that the main issue is not which ROM you are using but the hardware from the Desire is simply not strong enough for Dungeon Defenders.
[Desire General] ste1164:
The snapdragon processor in the desire does not have a gpu capable to run dungeon defenders smoothly.
[Desire General] Paradoxxx:
Work smooth under MIUI...
[Desire General] olly230:
Thankfully I'm not a massive game player on my desire otherwise this fact would make me unhappy with the phone and start lusting after new hardware.

Other than the lack of GPU I think the original desire should be 'the standard' for a few years more. It does full screen flash internet and google maps with GPS, what more do these phones really need to do?

Not sure if the way forward is to have media players with built in phones/sim slots in stead of phones with medai capabilites...
[Desire General] Xairo:
Are you sure? It doesn't rub smoothly with the oxygen rom.

I think that the Miui Rom isn't much faster than oxygen

P3droid posted some information on the coming lockdown from Moto and Vzw. Please read this and decide where you want to go from there. I for one am SBF'ing right now.

http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/...rooting-manufacturers-carriers.html#post65013

Edit:

The gist of the post is that VZW and Moto are actively going after those of us running non-approved software and even root users. This is probably the cause of the Wifi tether issue.

Again, please read this folks!

Edit:

P3droid updated his post.
[Droid X General] tyvallely:
O_o I have never been so scared thanks for informing!
[Droid X General] Funnyface19:
actually if you know the background and read all of it he says its NOT JUST VZW and motorola as htc has been locking bootloaders and having signed images, thunderbolt, soon to be incredible S
[Droid X General] tyvallely:
Yeah I know I read the whole page and puked litterly. Not kidding.
[Droid X General] stayin100:
Not buying any of it, they may try to make it harder but I highly doubt any of this will effect us long term.
[Droid X General] deadpixell:
For what its worth, Verizon has systems in place already to monitor those who do not pay for tethering (one way is to check the resolution). This doesn't really surprise me however...
[Droid X General] DroidzFX:
With these policy changes and increasing rates the smartphone phone market is really going to slow down. The only reason it grew so quick was due to cheap devices and good data plans. The carriers are really shooting themselves in the foot and will take notice once these sales decline.
[Droid X General] bbcrackman:
Unfortunately this is not isolated to just VZW and Moto, this will pertain to all carriers and all device manufacturers.
[Droid X General] Funnyface19:
it was probably just the network ive sbf'd like 5 times the past few days and sometimes it doesnt want to cooperate this happen occasionally when i was factory resetting my droid eris back in the day also if it fails just skip it if u can and dial *22899 same thing just does it automatically instead of calling and having to choose it out of a list. this would never hold up in court because of the definition of unlimited. its so broad verizon wouldnt stand chance. its about like bottled water why the **** would you pay for it wen its free. i think its high time the community put their collective minds (and money) to come against verizon with a class action lawsuit. oh wait recently LOL was accepted into the oxford english dictionary i think next up is verizon trying to get the definition of unlimited changed to "what we think is appropriate". its like going to a buffet, you pay for all of it and as much as you want. then going up for ur 4th plate of dessert and getting told no sir the $5 doesnt include THAT much.
[Droid X General] GrimDefamation:
I used to have that problem ALL the time with my droid eris. Never really happens with my droid X and i'm constantly sbf'ing and flashing roms, especially lately with the GB leak and drew garen roms for the GB leak.
[Droid X General] GrimDefamation:
Ok, after reading some of P3droid's twitter, im hoping this isn't just drunk talk. This better not be another hoax like the unlocked bootloader a little while back from someone else. Im really getting fed up with all this drama/rumor stuff going down.
[Droid X General] jeraspie28:
Excellent point(s) sdicker89. I'm with you 100%. Besides, I really think this issue would have a lot more publicity if were completely true.

This is a pretty big issue and would have a huge impact on the whole market.

I think I remember a rumor a while back similiar to this. I think only time will tell tell...
[Droid X General] NotATreoFan:
Playing devil's advocate here, but would it be so bad if the smartphone market shrank? I am just one of many people who believe the industry took a huge downturn one these phones became so cheap and plentiful.

Devices that were once reserved for the "tech crowd" are now in the hands of people who could barely use a Razr 3 years ago. Which brings us 180d back around to the warranty/tethering/rooting.

I honestly don't know what to make of this. There has been so much childish drama going on in the community as of late it's getting out of hand. Hopefully we aren't just getting ' trolled' like the unlocked bootloaders several weeks ago.

I've thought about it for a bit after reading this post and I can honestly say I don't want my smart phone without at the very least having root access. The phone is filled with tons of apps that I can't even remove? Honestly, don't add 20 bloatware apps if I can't remove them. I also really love SetCPU. Without that my battery life is ****.

Maybe if people in the community were literate enough to read 10 simple directions we wouldn't have this problem, but who knows. I'm still reluctant to believe all of s. If they, solidly, know who is rooted and who isn't what can they do? I'm not SBF'ing to stock. I paid for this phone and until they lock it down I'll do whatever I want with it.

[Droid X General] Scottbg1:
They can't dictate how we use our devices.

What if Dell, HP, Compaq, etc forbade its customers from uninstalling all the bloat that comes installed on OEM machines? Or worse, penalized the end user for uninstalling Windows, and installing Linux instead?

Lawsuit.

This is my phone, and as long as I make my payments every month I can do with it as I damn well please.

And as far as the data is concerned I pay for UNLIMITED data. Unless they are using a different dictionary than I am, unlimited means no cap. Not unlimited up to a certain amount.

There is documentation some where, forgive me not remembering where I read it, but when AT&T discontinued their unlimited data plan for new customers and gave them a 2GB cap each month, they admitted that only 2% of their customers EVER went over that.

So as a last resort Verizon, employ the same rules for your new customers to keep your data overages in check, but leave my phone alone.

But you know what, it will probably happen. They will indeed impose these restrictions and you know what we will do? ***** about it, and nothing else. We will share our discontent to each other on this forum and call Google, and VZW blood sucking bastards while sitting on our hands with our bottom lip stuck out, and go about our business.

If this happens its because we let it. Plain and simple.
[Droid X General] tyvallely:
Right. But one thing is wondering how do we BLOCK VERIZON FROM KNOWING that we are happily rooted?
[Droid X General] bL33d:
If they mess with me I'll take my 3 phones all with unlimited data plans and move to sprint... Nexus s here I come lol.

Plain and simple this is my phone I'll do with it what I please I pay for insurance every month never returned a device except my moms droid iris because the track ball quit working right.

I am running rooted gb I don't tether and I plan to keep doing what I'm doing if they don't want my business that's a choice formthem to make unless I'm forced to make it for them.

My dad always says companies work for us we pay them.
[Droid X General] stayin100:
Pda sales are up 22% this year...
[Droid X General] Joe92T:
Its really not that big of a deal... Sure 9 out of 10 phones are going to be locked down now.

However there will always be google experience devices like the Nexus line where its a requirement for them to be unlocked with no carrier intervention.

All thats going to happen is the general public will keep doing what their doing and all of us will end up with nexus phones
[Droid X General] Joe92T:
Also sure the plan may stipulate that the data is unlimited but it makes no mention of how fast you can get it

Sure theyll give you unlimited data but at 56k download speeds...they can throttle all they want and they already do currently for the top 5% of data hogs that go over 5gb a month
[Droid X General] cstrife999:

[Droid X General] Joe92T:
Alot of people here are asking how can verizon do this when its there own personal property and that they can do whatever they want with it...

Thats completely true, however verizon dosent care about your phone, they care about their network

Sure you can have a rooted phone that you can do whatever you want with, the only thing is its going to be a wifi only tablet phone with no carrier service

You can do whatever you want with your own phone, but they dont have to let your modified phone on THEIR network.. so you can ROM your wifi only droid X all you want, thats all verizons worried about

As far as the program needed to detect these phones in violation... We already use it, its called software update checker.

You run the program and it checks your current software version to see if their are updates available...All verizon has to do is make the program run by itself in the background and check the current software version and when a non-oem version is detected it reports it
[Droid X General] eth3rton:
If they do indeed start hammering rooted/tethering users I will discontinue use of my beloved smartphone. I pay the bastards nearly $200/mo and I feel that is more than enough for me to do whatever I damn well please with my phone. **** off Verizon.

Do you think they don't frequent these types of forums? Unless one was to develop the fix and keep it to himself Verizon would become self aware as the rest of us do.....

I hate to say this but it almost seems like you guys are getting trolled. (I say almost lol)

There's NO link, evidence, Official information, carrier announcements or anything rock solid for that matter.

Yes, the person who posted that thread is a known and respected developer but if anyone else were in his shoes and told you VZW is going to ask you to jump off a bridge or else they are going to take your first born or, your left tactical, would you believe it?

Really people...really? Where has all the common sense gone :p ?
[Droid X General] SharkBaitDave:
lol, they can take my first born... just better not mess with my Data Plan.
[Droid X General] cstrife999:
I agree with this. Also this is coming off Verizon and Motorola just saying that the Zoom will be upgradable to 4g even if it is rooted...
[Droid X General] mortymouse:
+1

With all due respect, if all of this was going on for months and months, why then was a pre rooted GB leak released by this same person? Thats just a question now, so do not flame. I just read all of this over the last few days and it seemed weird that the timeline of events went back so far, and during that same time things were being released and still are. If flashing to GB that was rooted put you on this "list" that Big Red is tracking on, why was it released at all?

[Droid X General] Joeviocoe:

No offense... but what makes p3Droid incapable of playing us all as fools?

Maybe his source(s) are the pranksters.

It is a VERY BIG COINCIDENCE that shocking/fearful news breaks the first few days of April.

I won't bite until this is verified by someone with TRUE authority, saying Verizon or other carriers are actively tracking and will lock down all rooted devices.

No where in my contract does it say I can't root my phone. that's like saying, you can own a house, but you can't remodel it.
[Droid X General] Joeviocoe:
Didn't actually read your Verizon contract, huh?

http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/globalText?textName=CUSTOMER_AGREEMENT&jspName=footer/customerAgreement.jsp

In the section titled:

What Are Verizon Wireless' Rights to Limit or End Service or End this Agreement?

Look at part (d) and (e):

Most people interpret (d) to mean hardware modifications. But Verizon could easily have meant Firmware too (which by definition, is harder than software).

And (e) gives them just cause if they think you are tethering illegally and downloading massive amounts of data... enough to affect the network.

----------------------------

That is EXACTLY RIGHT.... they are called HOAs (Home Owners Associations)... and they can prohibit certain modifications to your home. They do it all the time, all across the country. Their justification is that, many modifications to your house or property can devalue a neighbor's property. (kinda like Verizon's justification against illegal tethering).
[Droid X General] JeezyMT3G:
I thought this was over???? Its clearly a rumor ...just drop it
[Droid X General] Joeviocoe:
More like a malicious prank by someone on April Fools day.

----------------------

At this point, I was just making the argument that Verizon COULD legally prohibit rooting... if they wanted.

But no, they won't do it. :)
[Droid X General] bcblount:
This was in discussion with Verizon. It was in response to the at&t merger and competition. Its not going to happen. I had this verified thru a friend of mine at Verizon. They can't do anything anyway due to the iPhone ruling anyway. Not to mention the cost to do it would far outway free tethering via rooted phones. This needs to stop. It is EVERYWHERE and there is 0% truth to any of it. All it has done is caused a slight panic and comrades to fight eachother in these forums.
[Droid X General] SharkBaitDave:
Damn, you beat me too it, was about to bring up that point. A lot of gated communities have similar rules in the deed, forcing you to meet their rules.

Where I live, there is a lake community across the street from me, I do not have a lake behind my house, I have to cross a major road to even get to the sign that says Welcome to blah blah blah lake community, yet I still get stuck paying the community fee's just because its in the deed.
[Droid X General] drhill:
Not sure the HOA analogy is good. HOA's can only restrict external modifications. Internal you can do what you want.... as long as it is permitted by municipality code and you get a permit if needed.

HOA restrictions should be illegal. Tell me I have to have brass lights outside... I hate brass, it's ugly. Municipal codes can be just as stupid and not for "safety" reasons as they claim.

Anyway, Verizon leaves there contracts just vague enough to cover anything, but it also "could" leave open enough to have to eat an ETF. I can't take this topic too serious as it stands now. I'm sure it could have come up in discussion at Verizon, but it is unlikely to happen.
[Droid X General] luigi90210:
HOA shouldnt have as much power as they do but thats just my 2 cents on that

and verizon probably wont cancel your contract and make you pay ETF just cause they found out your rooted unless your tethering illegally of course
[Droid X General] Joeviocoe:
I would hate for people to think I am hijacking the thread... But, I think the analogy is a good one.

Although routing is an internal modification, tethering is external (allows a user to use more than their fair share of the network) . However, carriers cannot detect third party tethering apps, and can only possibly detect rooting.
[Droid X General] luigi90210:
have you tried 3rd party tethering apps on the new DX leak? or 3rd party apps on the fascinate's update?

these are blocked by the carrier(they bring you to the tethering webpage) and they can be detected

heck it was even stated in p3's post and so far(according to p3) verizon can only speculate that your rooted if you dont accept OTA updates but thats really inaccurate(and i know first hand they can see if you accepted the update or not)
[Droid X General] JeezyMT3G:
Where is your proof of this "first hand they can see if you accepted the update" ? Quit encouraging the rumors and stop worshipping P3 like he knows everything ....every single Motorola forum where this duche posted has been for gotten about or completely ignored and y'all still goin at it? Wow very impressive with all the evidence y'all piled up from so and so's brothers sister who knew somebody that had a cousin that was dating the daughter of a cousin who spoke to someone who knew someone in Verizon .... y'all earned an applaud .......
[Droid X General] luigi90210:
who the heck are you to be questioning me like that

what gives you authority?

FYI you can call verizon and ask them but i doubt you will do that

and FYI i hate these rumor posts more than anyone, i only differentiate fact from fiction(being that verizon can check if you accepted updates like every other carrier out there and that verizon like every carrier out there can block 3rd party tethering apps)

get your facts straight before posting

OH AND PS

verizon like every other carrier will do NOTHING to your contract just for being rooted

they will NOT cancel you

they will NOT charge you ETF

they WILL however charge you for tethering illegally
[Droid X General] Mortalys77:
Does anyone know what P3Droid is yelling about on twitter? He said for everyone to get off the hotspot hack. Was this included with the Gingerbread release he had? Is this the same as the throttling uncap? He is giving out very little useful info.
[Droid X General] JeezyMT3G:
Ok mr facts lol show proof.....just like P3 you have no NONE Hahahaha

Call Verizon? ?? Maybe if you read other threads and post many people have and Verizon doesn't even know what's goin on...all the big honchos know and u think they talk about it publicly? Haha

Get off P3s n*** ENJOY root and shut up :)

Oh and PS

Verizon has and always known who has what on their phone

Why weren't you freaking out then?

P3 post something and all his followers go ape nuts lol

Anything that's isnt proven is questioned ;)

Thnx for ya time! :D
[Droid X General] mrkite38:
Cut the flaming. Until there's an official statement from Verizon, this is all speculation. If you're in violation of your TOS, perhaps this would be a good time to reevaluate both your actions and your choice of carrier.

If you have something to contribute or new VERIFIABLE information, and can discuss it civilly, post away. Otherwise, keep it to yourself.
[Droid X General] Joeviocoe:
What 3rd party apps? What are their names? Link a thread that shows this is happening!

My guess is that they were not detected by the carrier, but the app developers got kicked off the market and are now redirecting to the webpage.

Or one of those tethering apps that do not require root (perhaps a hack of the stock tethering app), and thus cannot properly modify the data stream.

The good tethering apps are not on the market, are for root only... And the data stream coming from the tethering app... looks exactly the same as the data stream coming from any other phone app.

By definition, the burden of proof lies with the person(s) making the "out of the ordinary" claim. And you, and P3droid, are the ones implying some extraordinary allegations. Therefore..... who are you? And what gives you the authority.... to make such claims?
