Since this issues seems to be exclusive to sim unlocked devices NOT on AT&T's network, I'm willing to bet that something DID get broke for non-AT&T users. The firmware and update were meant for AT&T users, and nobody else, so before you go off ranting on how much AT&T sucks, keep that in mind. :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Andresrsx:
thanks Ririal for your reply

I guess i'll hold that update for later, hopefully you guys can work that out.

Thanks!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ririal:
Updated to v1.03. Cleaned up the script with GladiAtrix framework, added additional prompts in the script to show users when they need to accept superuser requests on the phone.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] thebeardedchild:
Just a quick and probably silly question...I extracted the files to C:/GladEnable. I went and checked the folder, but all the files are inside of ANOTHER folder called GladEnable. So for instance, the .bat file is at C:/GladEnable/GladEnable/GladEnable.bat

Is this correct? Or should I remove one of the directories?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
probably won't matter, but generally for convention i'd say remove one of them
[Atrix 4G Android Development] thebeardedchild:
Awesome, thanks man
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kdeezy:
Anyone tried this with the new 1.83 release for ATT? Yes I know it isn't official so spare me the disclaimer. Thanks
[Atrix 4G Android Development] LayzeeEyez:
Yeah I tried it and it works, both side loading and tethering. I also rooted with gingerbreak if that matters or not
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kdeezy:
Thanks man! I will give it all a shot later
[Atrix 4G Android Development] J-man67:
Same here...everything is working great!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ririal:
The only requirement for this too work is root. It will work on any device that's rooted.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] JVogler:
I've rooted with Gingerbreak and have GreyBlur running. I've run GladEnable script 10 times trying different things...always ended saying sideloading enabled, then reboot. But just doesn't work...still can't sideload anything. Anyone else coming across this? I've tried all the ways to enable side-loading...this being my last...just refuses to work.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] arunchowdhary:
sideloading not working, rooted 4.1.57 grayblur

I have tried it saveral times, I see one thing always: Permission denied.

I am sure my phone is rooted, I could access su via terminal.

Is there any other way to double check the rooting and/or sideloading script to enable it?

thanks!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rjayflo:
Under APN...which tether option do I select?

-Custom tether

-US tether
[Atrix 4G Android Development] JVogler:
I believe we are having the same issue? I also am rooted, and see Permission Denied while script runs briefly, then it says sideloading enabled, and reboots...

Have you found a solution yet?

Finally got this working! I know from the PM's there are a few others having this same issue when following all directions perfectly and nothing. Still not sure what the problem was, but I finally got the settings options everyone talks about for Menu/Settings/Applications: the unknown sources tick-box is now there and side-loading enabled. I could not get this to work originally with GingerBlur (about 5 separate installs) or with GreyBlur (at least 10 times), but just installed GingerBlur 3.0 over GreyBlur without flashing back to Original stock first. I have no idea if it is related in any way, but it's the first time it worked..
[Atrix 4G Android Development] fabolous04:
works great thx
[Atrix 4G Android Development] PakaPakaxz:
Works with 1.8.3 too... thanks !
[Atrix 4G Android Development] zach.xtr:
Just wanted to say thanks for the code - I had to manually run the scripts via adb shell as I am on ubuntu and then go to the APN setting and select the new "Custom Tethering" APN and reboot.

Now I am connecting and posting to xda from my mobile hotspot :D

Quick question though - is there any advantage to use this over the Android Wireless Tether app? Does anyone know if AT&T can "see" this better than the other app?

Thanks!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Caid444:
After trying this twice and installing gingerblur as well. I am still getting the "account not verified" red. Bubble when I try to turn on my hotspots.

This wasn't a problem on 4.1.57, but it's not going away this time.

I can't even use barnacle tether. It turns on and appears to be running but doesn't show up in networks on other devices.

I am quite confused by this.

Sideloading worked, though.

-Caid.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] vicfuze:
not working on 4.1.83

I also get the same error after installing over 4.1.83

The new rom must be doing more checking now.

Edit: Got it working with this.

use Root Explorer, edit

"build.prop" under "system" folder,

find "ro.mot.entitlement_check=true" and change it into

"ro.mot.entitlement_check=false"

Then disable Wifi if using before enabling hotspot.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ririal:
Be careful with this method, as it's unknown what other services rely on this check.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sheek360:
im rooted and on the latest atrix update from att

when using gladenable i get this error

./data/local/tmp/gladenable.sh: not found

any info or help is appreciated
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bleuiko:
So will this officially support 1.8.3? Seems like it's currently a hit or miss.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ririal:
Updating for 1.83 shortly.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bleuiko:
Awesome! Looking forward to it!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] msd24200:
sweet, can't wait
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ririal:
Updated.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] d3athsd00r:
does the gladenable.sh script work? If it does then it should work on Mac as well.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Spectre51:
Just got my Atrix today stock 1.8.3 and rooted using Gingerbreak then used GladEnabler and it worked perfectly. Thank you so much for this. Gingerbreak didn't even format my sd card.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jentwistle:
I am on 1.8.3 and used your version 1.04 to get sideloading, are there any problems that could arise that you adressed by updating?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ririal:
Nope, the fixes are for the users that it wasn't working for. If it worked for you, you're fine.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] atlana:
WIFI tether + sideloading apps (unknown sources) works like a charm on my GingerRoot'ed (verified by "su" in Better Terminal App) OLYFR_U4_1.5.7

But, and that's what I would like to see changed - I am using the Webtop-via-HDMI-cable-only Mod. When fire Webtop up via HDMI-cable, and I am NOT on WIFI, I get this stupid "validating your AT&T account", and then the inbuilt Firefox tells me that i need an "'appropriate' Dataplan or use WIFI".

My Beef with AT&T is, i DO have a Dataplan (unlimited for 30 bucks/month) that I grandfathered in to.

I already tried the

trick a few posts earlier up, but that didnt do it either.

Is there a way to ENABLE Internet on the Webtop via Cellular-data link only WITHOUT getting waylaid by AT&T? It works just fine DIRECTLY in the android browser, and thanks to SUBSONIC streaming app, I've been pumping gigabytes of data each month and AT&T never said anything to me for the past year (former N1 owner here).

I *suspect* that the line "ro.mot.entitlement_check=true" exist somewhere in the Webtop environment again, being the ATRIX running actually TWO different OS'es - Android and the castrated Ubuntu called Webtop.

cheers

@
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ririal:
It's the same check. By "valid data plan" they mean tethering. The only way I've gotten it to work on webtop is to make sure wifi is ON and selecting the tethering APN before loading into webtop. Then BEFORE the "Verifying account status" or whatever it says popup goes away, switch to any other APN, wait five seconds, then switch back to the tethering APN. There might be some check in the webtop itself for it, but they do seem linked.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Spectre51:
I start the webtop with the tethering apn active and when it says validating I turn on wifi and let out connect then disconnect wifi and it works fine on 3g
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ririal:
Interesting, I'll have to try that.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] atlana:
Does that even work when there's no WIFI hotspot available where your wifi can connect to ? I mean that's my whole reason trying to utilize my Atrix' 3G/3.5G connection for the webtope, BECAUSE there's no WIFI available :D

Or am I misunderstanding something now ?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Bloodgod:
great job! thanks!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bleuiko:
I just ran this script and it worked great... but speedtests showed that my speed has drastically decreased. It is even worse than pre 1.8.3 speed. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

It could also be something AT&T is doing in my area so I'm not sure. I forgot to ran a speed test immediately before doing this. My guess is that it has nothing to do with this script but I wanted to see if anyone else is seeing issues.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] atlana:
I noticed that a couple of newly purchased apps downloaded were slower download-speeds, but that may be the back-end of the apps vendors.

EDIT: can you switch APN's on the fly, or do you have to reboot every time you switch APNs ?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ririal:
This doesn't really do anything outside adding an APN for you, so you don't have to type it manually. It doesn't even enable it, so any changes you're seeing in connection speed is a placebo effect and is caused by something else.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bleuiko:
Thanks, Ririal. That's what I figured. Tethering is working great! Time to give AT&T a call to see why the towers near me are crapping out.

My default APN before is AT&T US HSDPA. Am I suppose to leave it at that and change it to the "custom tethering" before I use hotspot and change it back? Or can I just leave it at "custom tethering"?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ale922:
Thanks, i used gingerbreak but it didn´t enable sideloading. This worked perfectly and very easy
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mn3kgtvr4:
Thanks for this.

4.1.83, rooted with Gingerbreak.exe

Tip for noobs, Windows XP after unzipping/unraring the file it will create a subfolder with the apps/files in it. Cut/paste the files back up to the main C/: level and delete the subfolder or it will fail. Also, while running the bat file use capital Y/N or you will get permission denied message (at least I did using lowercase letters). Otherwise instructions are spot on.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Prodeje79:
I am trying on my AT&T Sony Xperia X10a.

I am getting the error:

/data/local/tmp/gladenable.sh: not found

I got a few screens in and it asked me if I wanted to enable sideloading, I put y....

then failed on APN loading too.

Then rebooted my phone....

EDIT

Now Plants & Zombies Works.......

ok nevermind I guess!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ririal:
Interesting. Good to know it works on other non-Atrix devices as well ;)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] JuPaX:
This worked perfectly on my Atrix from at&t running 4.1.83, thank you so much!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] droid_does:
double Edit: Fixed now
[Atrix 4G Android Development] PatriotXT92:
Thank you worked perfectly first try on AT&T 4.1.83
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Gandalf:
download link is down
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rusreid:
Sweet. Works on mine...AT&T in the US...used the AT&T US TETHER APN setting.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] hondarider525:
does anyone have the script? the download is down
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ceo.mtcl:
Why did you raise it from dead and why dovyou even need this? There are other better options.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] MarrkDaviid:
The script unfortunately did not work on my MB860.

/system/bin/su: not found

Also didn't receive any superuser requests on the device, the only part of the script that worked for me was the reboot.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ATRIXXIRTA:
Maybe dont try scripts that are almost a year old........

SEVERAL!!!!! updates have been done on xda, as well as to the device itself since then.

This thread is better of dead.....hey i rhymned
[Atrix 4G Android Development] MarrkDaviid:
Well I am running out of choices, and the device only has Android 2.2.2 on it anyhow, so there was a chance of it working. Barnacle WiFi Tether does not work on the device, and there appears to be no entitlement_check that can be modified.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ATRIXXIRTA:
1: ROOT your phone

2: UNLOCK bootloader

3: FLASH recovery

4: FLASH custom rom that allows for wifi tethering
[HTC Inspire 4G] tribalartgod:
A little something for the ladies, that might want a touch of pink on their phones. ;-)

How to flash:

1. Unzip the file so you have "splash1.img" and place this file in your "tools" folder of your SDK package.

2. Boot into your bootloader (fastboot mode)

3. From the command prompt: Change directories to your SDK "Tools" folder then type:

fastboot flash splash1 splash1.img

4. Reboot and enjoy
[HTC Inspire 4G] Angirox:
Absolutely gorgeous! Keep up the good work!
[HTC Inspire 4G] robinjb:
swee-eet. i like it a lot...nice touch with the quietly pink.
[Thunderbolt General] wakestrong:
So the one time I decide to take the thundy out the case I drop it getting out of the car. I pick it up and its non responsive, can't get past HTC green/white screen. I tried holding vol down and I went into system info. It says touch panel- fail?!? Did I really toast this thing in one drop?
[Thunderbolt General] angermeans:
Ouch buddy let us know how it goes that makes me cringe as I always rock my phones naked, well except the nexus one neoprene that i have used on both incredibles and the nexus one I own. Wish it was big enough for my Thunderbolt that case has saved my ass a couple times
[Thunderbolt General] wakestrong:
So Jcase helped me flash back to stock and it now says S-On in bootloader but I still can't get past HTC logo. I think it dropped just right and broke the screen. Be careful if your running your phone without a case guys, Im a good example. First drop, ruined the screen! Now I have to wait for a replacement to get shipped.
[Thunderbolt General] wakestrong:
ok so I got the $5.18/ month insurance from Verizon, they tried to offer a $6.99/month plan that adds a 6 month warranty to the exchange and then took it back saying you cant with the thunderbolt.

So my question is should I just tell them I lost the phone and get to keep the battery, sd card, and possibly fix the touch screen later to put it on Metro PCS? Verizon says they cover lost phones, does anyone know if I will have more trouble if my phone is lost versus broken?

Also if its broken is there anyway of getting out of the $100 deductible?

Anyone know if I have to wait a day after adding insurance or any trouble I will run into with this?
[Thunderbolt General] azturbomini:
So you would tell them you lost it even though you dropped it?
[Thunderbolt General] wakestrong:
Ill admit its sneaky, but to be honest Im mad that this phone didn't hold up better. The battery casing popped off relatively easy when it was dropped which was its downfall. Now I have to pay $100 and Im just supposed to be ok with this?

If Verizon still had a 30 day policy I could just take it to them but they are tightening the reigns.

Pics to follow showing light damage
[Thunderbolt General] wakestrong:
Here are the pics
[Thunderbolt General] wakestrong:
The only damage cosmetically to the phone is the nick on the corner and a scratch to the camera lens bezel that I can't really get to show up in a picture. Phone looks pristine, yet isn't worth more than a brick.
[Thunderbolt General] azturbomini:
You can justify all you want but it doesn't make it right. Good luck
[Thunderbolt General] wakestrong:
Your right this phone is built to withstand nothing. Seems weird that 15 days after the bolt's release verizon is changing all their return policy rules.

Also no extended warranty available for the replacement, when they are offering it on other devices. I think I will keep this phone as my own insurance policy..
[Thunderbolt General] wakestrong:
I ended up using best buy black tie program because they gave me a phone on the spot. I didn't say I lost it, just gave them the broken phone. I was pretty frustrated yesterday when my TB failed!
[Thunderbolt General] papi92:
Just brick it and say you downloaded an application and it shut off your phone and thats what came up
[Thunderbolt General] wakestrong:
Well I got it the 15th so Im outside of verizon's 14 day policy. Your saying if I dont tell them I dropped it they might replace the phone? You cant even tell I dropped it, the best buy lady was like why is your phone so useless? (its basically already bricked but now S-On, only going to boot screen)
[Thunderbolt General] wakestrong:
Anyone try replacing a digitizer yet? Best Buy wants 30 days, plus 5 days for shipping, plus x amount of extra days cause their system was down for replacements....Im just getting so lucky, lol. I was hoping they were doing the 3 day rapid exchange, only on crapple phones though.

Link for $40 digitizer- http://www.kaboodle.com/reviews/39....zer-for-htc-thunderbolt-4g-incredible-hd-6400

This will void my warranty huh?
[Thunderbolt General] dino325:
Correct me if im wrong as I have not actually seen a TB disassembled but is it possible that a pin connection just jolted loose? I mean it seems must more feasible in my opinion..
[Thunderbolt General] hammer4203:
That is always possible. I have seen it b4. My wife has a plasma tv that just quit the day after bestbuy return policy. They were gonna send a tech, but it was gonna be a week or more. So I pulled it off the wall and tore into it. They never pushed the lock down on the ribbon cable! Been fine ever since.
[Thunderbolt General] mitchell4500:
If I were you Id tell them the screen simply "Just Stopped working". From the looks of it nothing is cracked or broken so they couldent claim you did it.

I know, I know. Im a horrible dishonest person who makes things expensive and make people kill themselves.
[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:
So let me get this right. You were cheap so you didn't buy a case. Then YOU dropped it onto cement and expected to just pick it up and it to work fine. Then you go to Verizon and tell them you lost it so you can get a new phone plus keep the old one you know the one that YOU dropped. You are so freaking ridiculous. I hope you drop your new phone on carpet this time and it breaks. People these days, really.
[Thunderbolt General] magneticzero:
I agree... They need to get rid of phone insurance and let people be more careful.
[Thunderbolt General] nerozehl:
I would think from such a short drop it wouldn't be such a drastic result as the touchscreen failing. I mean, you must have dropped it "just right" for that to happen, I would think.

I accidentally dropped my BlackBerry down a flight of stairs at work and there wasn't even a scratch!

But I can see how a 4.3 inch screen could be more susceptible to damage than a BlackBerry.

Just remember, karma can be a *****, so pay it forward and be honest. You reap what you sow.
[Thunderbolt General] papi92:
Your covered by manufacturer warranty if it bricks on its own. Take it back to where you bought it and tell them it just rebooted and frooze. They will give you one free of charge
[Thunderbolt General] wakestrong:
I go into best buy to nag on them about getting my phone back quick. Mobile department says the Thunderbolt is a part of the new rapid exchange 3 day policy. Ok so I walk over to geek squad they say no they are idiots its 30 days plus 5 days shipping plus X amount of days to get it in our system correctly.

I tell them this is BS and I bought this phone here for the customer service best buy offers, and knowing they would be switching to rapid exchange (all true). The manager over heard this and says we will do an exchange on the phone, even though I told him I dropped it and then bought black tie.

So glad I bought from BestBuy! If I was at the Verizon store they would charge me a $100 insurance deductible being that I got the phone on the day of launch.

Buy your phones from BestBuy!
[Thunderbolt General] wakestrong:
Maybe, I appreciate the helpful advice unlike some here...however I think the panel shorted out to be honest because the back cover went flying off, then hit the back without the battery door.

lol, yes I have changed out my screen on the Iphone so I know what your talking about.

lol, some ppl on this forum are just pansies.

Yes I expect my phone to make it past the first time I drop it, haha. I have dropped my naked iphone much harder with no problems. Also the reason I didn't buy a case is because best buy only offered purple cases, I would have bought a blue one the day of launch if they had one on the wall. Yes I should have gone directly to verizon and bought a case but I didn't, I guess according to you I should be burned at the stake for this.

Also I never took it to Verizon...

I hope that this happens to you and then you understand the position and frustration I have gone through.

Yea screw the consumer, you should start working for Verizon....I think bestbuy mobile is gonna take over most of the new phone customers if they keep up this goodwill.

I agree with you. When I dropped it the back cover shot off and then it hit the ground where the cover should have been, however it amazed me that the back cover just shot off the device like that. This should be a warning to all, get a case that holds that battery cover on.

That being said I still think HTC dropped the ball on covering the back side of this phone. I will post pics tonight once my friend with a EVO gets here (which has everything covered) but the jist of it is this phone has the touch panel exposed from the back side and is prone to injury should the cover jump off the device like in my situation.
[Thunderbolt General] wakestrong:
Just so everyone knows I started this post to make everyone aware that this could happen, as well as to get any suggestions or help. Not to argue.

Below I took a pic of the corner of the new phone where it hit the back side of my phone after the cover went flying, the reason I know it hit this corner is because the black screw had a blemished, shiny look (almost invisible to the naked eye but I could tell). It kinda looked like after someone uses a screw driver on a painted screw.

Look at the pic you can see the green board sticking out...this is what I'm talking about. It shouldn't be exposed!
[Thunderbolt General] MYxdaUSERNAME:
i couldn't count how many times i dropped my og droid, on cement/ice whatever, on both hands..and besides a few nicks in the body around the screen, to this day not a single scratch or problem with the screen on it.

i'm treating this phone like its made of glass since i dont use a case...it gets its own pocket, etc..sucks but I love the phone. can't imagine how much everyone would be in love if it had gorilla glass...just too good to be true.
