I should have it today, will keep you posted

if it's branded, I will return it - I didn't mess with flashing yet, don't want to crash my phone ? :(
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hnupek:
ok, finally got mine from Orange (Slovakia)

and the guy was right !!

no logo on chassis

no startup Orange screen

no Orange custom icons

no Orange menu

NOTHING !! It was worth, I saved 300€ :D
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] discos7u:
Update:

Branded as expected...

-Boot screen

-Orange App Shop

-Orange Backup

-Orange Games

-Homescreen selector (choose between Orange and SE)

-Orange Maps

-Orange Plus

-Orange TV

-Orange Wednesday

-Orange Photo Upload

-Your Orange

Also has some games demos, but I suspect they might have been put on by SE - I was able to uninstall them.

In the (Orange branded) box:

-Arc (with Orange logo on rear) & battery

-USB cable/mains charger

-2 x screen protectors (1 fitted to the screen, 1 spare)

-8GB card (was already installed in the phone)

-Earphones

-HDMI cable

I presume this is SIM locked too... but what's the quickest/easiest way of telling?

(I only have Orange SIM cards in my household!)

FYI - This is Orange UK
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hnupek:
wow... so I guess I got lucky - I heard they are going to brand Orange SK as well, but it takes time since Gingerbread's new (Froyo is branded here)

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mwardm:
@discos7u,

I'm interested to hear how the Orange-branded version seems to work. What have they nobbled?

Presumably there's no (wifi) tethering available (which I understand the unbranded versions have got)?

[I can probably then justify to myself that it's worth shelling out the extra cash for an unbranded version!]

Cheers!

I upgraded my Orange contract from CPW last week, free phone on £30 pm contract. Ordered the phone last Thursday, delivered at home Friday. CPW are the only ones stocking the silver one which I think looks much better than the black/blue one.

No Branding, no Sim Lock - You can check by accessing the Service menu dial:

I was then able to download Orange Wednesday, Orange Plus, Orange Backup, Orange TV, and Your Orange from the Android Market.

I thought on Orange phones the wireless hotspot feature was disabled, but I checked it on mine last night and it works fine. The option to switch it on is greyed out until you set it up, then you can switch it on no problem.

Hi, just a query about you guys with orange branded software, was comparing my arc (generic) with my friends orange branded one, his was hanging quite badly from time to time which mine has never done, then looking under the running services tab he actually had 50mb more free ram! I could only guess it was the email app, he had a spam filled hotmail account which had emails coming in all the time, would that cause it? anyone recognize these syptoms?

Is this possible on the DHD.

Used to be able to do it on my HD2.

So rather than Vodafone UK being displayed you can change it to something else..

Thanks
[Wildfire General] piratesav:
What I would like to know is before flashing a Rom, CM7 RC4, is it possible to unzip the ROM, Remove some apps I dont want, add some that I do, Re-Zip & flash.

Will it still work?

Thanks.
[Wildfire General] daddyspud:
dont unzip the file open it in winrar etc and then remove the files u need and put the files u need in but just to let u now that not all the file u prop will not work as some apps dont like bein put in system apps and will force close or even not load
[Wildfire General] piratesav:
Thanks, might not add any as I can install them after I flash the rom but there are 1 or 2 I would remove.

Will give it a shot.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DonPanda:
Hello out there,

i wanna sell my DHD. So, just in case I can't bring it back to the seller (T-Mobile Germany, device was branded by T-Mobile, too), I want to rebrand it, maybe with a stock rom and unroot it + S-ON.

Is there any way to do this?

Thanks for your help :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostofcain:
flash unbranded RUU, search development thread for appropriate file.

And then

RUU_Ace_TMO_DE_1.39.111.1_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26. 03.02.26_M

? So, S-OFF and root are perm gone after these steps?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hawks556:
Why unbranded when he wants to rebrand his phone?

@DonPanda

Here is a T-Mobile Germany RUU
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hawks556:
You will also have to do Radio S-ON and brand CID.

I did it like this:

- Installed RUU (WWE 1.32 though as I didn't have a branded phone)

- Rooted with Visionary

- Did Radio S-ON and stock CID with jkoljo's tool

- Unrooted with Visionary and uninstalled it.

After this it was completely stock again.

I'm not sure if you can do Radio S-ON and stock CID first, and then install RUU because this way you wouldn't need to root it.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DonPanda:
Hm, i used the TMO_DE_1.39, cause the flash step with WWE file failed.

How ever, seems to work now and flashing the T-Mobile version. :)

Thanks for now

I'm hesitant of anything posted on April 1st, regardless of source! But I hope this works for the Atrix.
[Atrix 4G General] ikenley:
This is confirmed working guys.

[Atrix 4G General] EclipseX:
YEAH, its true, many people have try...see the post reply after day 1 and video

soo, please, I think this can break the bootloader of our atrix, but I don't have acknolegement to do that
[Atrix 4G General] ytwytw:
I assume Atrix has different type of bootloader than SE X10a

May try after final exam
[Atrix 4G General] naturefreak85:
You can't just run their script and make it work that way, their exploit would have to be ported to the Atrix.
[Atrix 4G General] mafiaboy01:
Hope this works, may I remind any dev that the is a huge bounty for this.

Sent from Motorola Atrix on TELUS.
[Atrix 4G General] :
Maybe you should change your title to...

"Possible bootloader unlock method"

it would get more attention.
[Atrix 4G General] jeremyritzmann:
+1. Would bring much more positive attention to the thread.
[Atrix 4G General] juzz86:
And all the naysayers and impatient fools too, unfortunately. I just read this also, if it could be ported it may be a promising lead. I'm off to do a bit more digging :)
[Atrix 4G General] G1-8701:
WOOOOOOO! thanx for posting this, hopefully this works, let's crack this bootloader and make these Atrix haters mad!
[Atrix 4G General] EclipseX:
I consider that sugestion

also I will try use that method to crash bootloder....I have some help from my teacher xD...
[Atrix 4G General] DAGr8:
theres no such thing as atrix haters , theres moto haters , I been a moto fan since the startac , truth is motorola has spit in our face since the days of EZX phone where they would always find a way to circumvent gpl , I wish I could have an atrix , but as long as its locked , not gnna happen , fool me once shame on you , fool me twice shame on me , I am very tempted but I wont jump in just yet , I heard Tegra is much less secure then omap so theres your chance but it be a good month or 3 or 4 before anything happens to that bootloader , thinking otherwise woudl be greatly under estimating Motorola ...

Lol you might wanna correct that...
[Atrix 4G General] :
Maybe he means... "fool me once, shame on (pause) you. You fool me you can't get fooled again." - GW Bush

Sorry hat to clutter this thread. Anyway, anyone got any reading material on this exploit done on the X10? I want to learn more about it.
[Atrix 4G General] gzrecoil:
Any Dev's care to comment on this?
[Atrix 4G General] G1-8701:
there are Atrix haters as well as moto haters, i've debated and well as read comments from quite a few of them, but people that have the wrong attitude and give up so easily on the phone ain't helping at all(or people that never had the phone to begin with), but i understand some people have their needs or wants in a phone and the atrix may not be it for them, but don't bash it just because you may not like it, never even owned it but have negative comments about it, have a defective device or whatever, and no i'm not saying that YOU have done any of this, but i'm tired of seeing it.....

but back to what this topic is actually about, hopefully this topic catches the devs attention
[Atrix 4G General] killersnowman:
sooo.. ignoring the differences in architecture between omap and tegra, were the two bootloaders secured in the same fashion?> signed? signed and locked? locked?
[Atrix 4G General] Gutterball:
Even it takes 3 or 4 months it still gives us hope. I thought this whole signed bootloader mess was gonna be completely impossible! So I'm thrilled to hear this!
[Atrix 4G General] gzrecoil:
Nothing is impossible :)

Doesn't look like this is catching the eye of many people though, most likely from the 4/4 date.
[Atrix 4G General] s1mpd1ddy:
Maybe the Devs are already working on it and not posting their updates?
[Atrix 4G General] s0dhi:
I'm pretty sure this is the case.
[Atrix 4G General] G-Man.:
Keep in mind - the devs now have access to a private section of XDA that is for devs only. Only they can see and post there. So this is quite possible that they are working and just keeping quiet amongst themselves.... I'm not getting excited yet though - Not until a Dev comes forward with info/findings/results on this.
[Atrix 4G General] Recon Freak:
Not many of the devs are posting progress because of the clutter and useless posts, like mine of course, in this forum. Most are pming, irc or keeping to themselves until they have something useful.
[Atrix 4G General] Exador:
I hate to be a wet blanket but I doubt this is going to work for the Atrix. These are two completely different platforms, it's like trying to start a Toyota with a Chevy key. The only way this bootloader is getting cracked is with a leak or a change of heart by Motorola if it's even possible.
[Atrix 4G General] s1mpd1ddy:
i know nothing about bootloaders and programming, but reading your post, it reminds me of the old saying.. "if there's a will, there's a way."

don't sell the devs short. Without any "real" roms (How do you distinguish a real rom from the few roms we have?) this phone still kicks a$$.
[Atrix 4G General] killersnowman:
you are right in one respect. they are different "keys" but you are mistaking using the same "key" for both cars and knowing the process in which the "key" for the toyota was made. knowing how that was made can help make a key for a chevy. this is more about the process and algorithm than anything else. its not as easy as just using the tools from the x10 on an atrix. its about porting the process
[Atrix 4G General] DAGr8:
dont give your hopes just , yet , if somethign ever happen ill buy the device , I guess some ppl will learn if they want the newest toy on the market it means they're not buying what they think but something else , I learned my lesson with my previous moto , if you guys are registered on XDA (in other words you are into moding/flashing phones) and you still buy a device within the first 5-6 weeks of its release then you either have a lot of money to spend or .....
[Atrix 4G General] Scoop3:
Similarly, knowing how the key interacts with the ignition gives you insite regarding how to bypass the ignition to get the same result as the key... :D
[Atrix 4G General] killersnowman:
yes, knowledge leads to many amazing things. heres to knowledge! cheers!

[Atrix 4G General] cheetah2k:
I think we need GeoHotz to work on this. If he can break the iphone and PS3, surely he can do the Atrix and Droid X as well
[Atrix 4G General] :
He said he wanted to get into android hacking with the xperia play.
[Atrix 4G General] True2TheGame:
Except he's no longer allowed to hack any Sony products
[Atrix 4G General] syl0n:
And Xperia play can be factory unlocked by SE, so no hacking needed as per say.
[Atrix 4G General] crashingout:
And to make it even more favorable for the atrix, we need a crypto guy who likes good hardware, the play has inferior hardware imo, singll core snapdragon and a lower resolution screen. I wish tegra games would get official wiimote support with some licensing, I've been play about 15 n64 games flawlessly with a cheap wiimote and it kicks ass. Oh well that's a dream. Geo should be all over this, what with the$ challenge and hardware involved not to mention the work he'll have to do reverse engineering stuff like the optimus and xoom. We should flag him down who knows it might be a stroll in the park for him

[Atrix 4G General] infrared411:
You all are *insert explicative dumb

This is a development thread and I hope a mod bans all of you that are posting irrelevant BS.

Dev threads should NOT be "hey did anyone hear about this?" NEWS or "How do I, insert Noob question here?" QUESTION

A dev thread is: "How to make your Atrix4G into a thermonuclear power source to save Japan's failing plant" or something equally amazing. A thread like "Need help finishing a kernel config for compiling 2.6+ for the tegra2" might be acceptable in development if the thread's author is stuck on a cryptic error but not acceptable if the author wants a step by step guide on how to compile.

I am not trying to keep the noobs from learning or asking questions but there is a better place for that then here. and I know everyone is eager to learn something new so that the next time around they can feel more involved and interact with it.

XDA is becoming too popular and I suspect that others are trying to exploit that popularity and stifle it away for themselves.

The people that are doing the work to break the bootloader are no longer here or at least not posting anything and I suspect it to be because of what I said above.

Keep the threads clean so that everyone finds the information they want quickly instead of reading long post such as this one that DO NOT HELP ANYONE(this post will only help the threads if followed and therefore help the devs).
[Atrix 4G General] blunted09:
I think people just want to be filled in once in a while to keep motivated. I agree though, most posts a bs.
