Singing a common tune. bought it when it came out, never had a screen protector. Had it in a case for a couple months but then just started pocketing it. I never put it in a pocket with coins or keys, but it share with gum, money, misc papers.

No scratchs, it's like new. Only the slightest burn in (time on upper right corner) only noticable with test software.
[Vibrant General] KWKSLVR:
I've had mine since day one and it's mint, even after taking it apart a few times for GPS fixes and FFC mods. I briefly used a screen protector, and hated it and ripped it off. I've got the gel skin from T-Mobile, and that's it.

The past couple of phones I've had are/were mint. I sold a Blackberry 9000 to a dude on Craigslist. I used it for about a year, mint. I gave my iFone 3Gs to my mother, it was mint when I handed it to her (but I rarely used it).

When you pay full price for an unsubsidized phone, you tend to take care of it.

Anybody got some pics of their badly scratched or cracked vibrant screen?
[Vibrant General] johnny13oi:
You definitely can't treat the phone poorly because the screen will scratch. I had a Captivate that was pretty scratched up but the scratches were very fine and were visible when held at an angle in the light. Looking at it straight on I never saw any scratches.

On different note, I have a watch made out of tungsten carbide with a sapphire crystal, both of which are technically only weaker than diamond are also very lightly scratched.

Just trying to say that anything can get scratched short of diamond so just don't treat it like crap.

Realook.

I've replaced 2 realooks screen protectors on mine since I got it in August because I scratched them deep. I'm guessing without them, the screen would have been scratched. I use my phone a lot. The realook is a life saver as I don't feel it on there and it doesn't distort colors (its like there is NO screen protector). Yet, when it gets scratched, I can simply replace it and the screen is brand new.
[Vibrant General] Blkegk:
Had mine since the release date without any screen protector, screen is still mint.
[Vibrant General] NCn1:
Had it for 8 months and still perfect. Haven't dropped it yet, but last week I had an anger attack and I punched my screen (and I punch hard) and nothing happened to it, so IMO this screen is very strong.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ace25:
Hello everyone,

I bought a Motorola Atrix 4G about a week ago and I need help on this matter:

I needed RTL support for my atrix so as a result I found that I'll have to root my device and go on for that matter and now I really need to return the device to AT&T before my 30 days to return the phone end.

Here's what I did step by step and that could probably help whoever needs to install one of these languages that run RTL and make them render correctly in everything except emails and browser which can be changed to firefox or mini opera to do the trick.

1- I installed phone drivers on my computer

motorola(dot)com/staticfiles/Support/Experiences/Global_Drivers/USB_Drivers_bit_4.8.0.exe

2-downloaded aRoot

Then connected my phone to the computer in USB debugging mode

ponack(dot)net/designgears/atrix/aRoot/

3- extracted the aRoot.7z and ran aRoot.bat waited until the device rebooted.

4-downloaded Adeo ROM from here

www(dot)ponack(dot)net/designgears/atrix/Adeo

and downloaded the update as well.

Then extracted the AdeoInstallerv0.1.7z ran INSTALL.bat

5-the device rebooted and it took about 5 mins

Then extracted AdeoUpdaterv0.2.7z and ran UPDATE.bat

6-Downloaded root explorer from here

www(dot)mediafire(dot)com/?g59n18vfmadm0lm

6- downloaded the framework.jar and font from here:

www(dot)fileserve(dot)com/file/Jx4wtHf

7- extracted the file and moved DroidSansArabic.ttf to the path /system/fonts/ to the path /system/fonts/ and gave it the permission USER (R/W) GROUP (R) OTHERS (R).

8- moved framework.jar and replaced the original one with it in the path /system/framework/ and gave it the same permissions as above.

9- restarted the device and it is running until i received the update from at&t and it downloads and when installing it fails and give the android guy with exclamation triangle. so I waited and pressed the power button so i got the options so i wiped the device and it still fails the update.

I need your help please to reverse this and restore my device to original and as i received it from at&t so I can return it to them.

Note: I haven't backed up the device as i thought i won't need to as it is my first android phone.

your help is appreciated.

Thank y'all for reading my post.

Went to check on the Blockbuster app and its says its fianlly working, haven't tried it yet though.
[Atrix 4G General] elementaldragon:
"Sorry, the Blockbuster server cannot be found. Please make sure your device is connected to a data network (3G or Wi-Fi) and try again."

....... nope. haha

Kinda sucks..... i like Netflix for their FREE streaming with subscription.... but hate that they have delayed new movie releases. I like Blockbuster's online rental service due to getting new movies right away.... but they charge like $3-4 for one streaming movie. It's also nice that blockbuster has game rentals.... but lame that you have to wait like 3-6 months apparently before any of the new games are even available, but from my friend's experiences, GameFly isn't that reliable either.

*sigh*
[Atrix 4G General] mjh60:
Not working for me. Says need network connection and i have full bars not to mention im on wifi.
[Atrix 4G General] RPK925:
It was working for me for a minute. Where it usually says will be working in so and so days, it went straight to a.screen where it said thankyou for trying the app and they will let you try 1 movie free I guess. I just opened.the app again and your right now it says, the wifi 3g message. I should of tried to sign up when it was supposedly working.
[Atrix 4G General] RPK925:
It now says working! "Download in the android market" im trying it now.
[Atrix 4G General] RPK925:
I have downloaded the first version of the Blockbuster app 2.0.37. It will let you download the app from the market, but when you open the app it goes to a connection error message, saying it needs to be connected by 3G,4G, or WiFi. I then tried using WiFi to use it and it said it is connecting but then gives another error message saying carrier undefined? . Is this app ever going to be up and running!
[Atrix 4G General] JohnnyDanger:
I get the data error also, but not before first getting an error code 12012. Anyone else get that?
[Atrix 4G General] RPK925:
Yes! Finally got past all those error messages when trying to open the new Blockbuster app. First had to go to Blockbuster.com to register for a account, credit card ect. ,after you do that, you are supposed to verify your account with a numeric code they give you. Then your device will say activating, then brings you right to the Blockbuster App online store. Before the app went online it said on the advertisement app page that Atrix owners would get 1 or 2 free rentals, when the app starts working. I wonder how we get those free rentals? I will try it out now and post results, should stream well im guessing because of the Atrix's high res screen.
[Atrix 4G General] rex-tc:
I get a tamper detected as root error: This device will not be able to download or plaback Wdieine ecrypted content.

So it looks like if your rooted you will not be able to use this app. :mad:
[Atrix 4G General] RPK925:
Ya I guess not, iam not sure if the Blockbuster app works with root. I just did a return and have not done the update yet, and it is now final working for me!
[Atrix 4G General] JohnnyDanger:
I don't think it really detects root right. I had rooted my phone but did the update and lost root. I still have the super user icon but any programs that require root don't work, yet I still get the error with the Blockbuster app that says root was detected. Pretty weak.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nujhum:
I've been wondering if its possible to make Sony X10mini/pro Timescape works with the custom CM6 & CM7 rom by owain94 since im kinda feeling missing without x10mini/pro timescape.

Feeling like the smartphone im using isnt Sony X10mini pro at all... :(

so what im trying to say here is im trying to figure it out everything related to X10mini/pro timescape so i can make it works with the CM Roms.

I believe this is this is the apk that is use for the timescape in system/app:

* Timescape (Sony Ericsson contacts layer)

* TimescapePluginManager.apk

* TimeScapeProvider.apk

* Timescape-smallui.apk

* uWlopProvider.apk

* SnsContactImageCacheProvider.apk

and im kinda figured some of the lib file that needed for it to run...

so im asking for help if any of you with knowledge and interested in this ****!!! and lets get it to work...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] slade87:
check the lib/folder for all need libs

run adb logcat and see about what it complains

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] myth999:
You also need to have all files from system/usr/semc/seee

And set perms for all relevant libs to 777 then try running it :)

If u need to figure out something else I wont mind contributing.

Timescape arc is for froyo and above, maybe u r the one who can provide this to 2.1 non SE users :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nujhum:
i believe that i can't do it alone...

since i don't really have all the knowledge about this, so im trying my best so it can works with both CM version.

and im hoping of some help too.. :)

and found something in data/data folder relating timescape db...

and system/usr/semc/ cant be found.

still no luck with Timescape. it's about time for me to give up.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] myth999:
I told u buddy, its too much integrated into the framework.

Besides froyo <-> gingerbread porting is easier than eclair -> froyo coz of the way timescape was written
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nujhum:
damn yeah... it's kinda hard.

Hi,

Sort of new in the development world, been workign with some examples and changign some files around , but i have no apk yet.

I have all the folders, and files. as in the picture enclosed

-Assests

-bin

-gen

-res

-src

-.classpath

.project

AndriodManifest.xml

default.properties

So my question is.

How can i make this into an APK file? I have the files, already made and since the example was provided to me in ZIP file, i dont have many options..

I know and read that i would need eclipse etc for programming, but i figure the program is already made Just not in APK

so how do I make this an APK file?

I tried Apk manager, but u need an APK for it :(
[Android Software Development] cTrox:
Uhm, yeah, I don't think this is going to work like that. Install eclipse, ADT plugin and import the Project and then you can try to build the apk!
[Android Software Development] Lakers16:
You cant compile code into an executable apk without a development environment, such as eclipse.
[Android Software Development] Gene Poole:
Sure you can. Check out:

[Android Software Development] Meltus:
I would STRONGLY suggest you install eclipse (or equivalent) because it makes things so much easier. You'll struggle otherwise.

An APK can be made, completely from scratch, from the command line but why on earth would you want to? :D
[Android Software Development] Paschalis:
Yeap, eclipse does everything.

You can compile it on an AVD via eclipse, or even straight to your phone, if you connect it by the time you run the program in eclipse.

Now, how do I resize the images properly? Scale, resize? Differences? What program to use (free, I'd prefer)? How to add that black bar so lovely at the bottom of the images and the text there? I tried figuring it out, but I couldn't figure out how to search how to do that specific thing.

Any help would be great! I want to start making images in that fashion for other applications, as those are very limited.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the12nv:
When I had my Hero, you could download Desktop Visualizer - this will allow you to associate certain pictures to the icons you want. It will also allow you yo resize them....my suggestion is start with a big icon and resize it smaller - smaller to big makes it look grainy...as for the dock bar....I used (use) LauncherPro - under LauncherPro setting you can change the dockbar....hope this helps!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrtoastyman:
The black bar at the bottom looks to be a custom dock for LauncherPro. I've seen it in collections of LP Docks before (I'm unfortunately not immediately able to find it, but google it and spend a few minutes, and you ought to find it no prob).

As for the icons, Simi Folder would be one way to do it if what you're linking to is a folder. Not sure for just an icon that links directly to an app -- you can certainly resize icons in LPP, but I'm not sure off the top of my head how to do it and maintain the scale. You could probably compress it using Photoshop such that when it gets stretched, it looks correct? I dunno, someone else may have better ideas...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] totalanonymity:
I believe people are misunderstanding what I'm asking.

I know how to get it all set up on my homescreen and such. I have the setup like that currently, no problem, using DesktopVisualizer and LPP.

I'm more asking about how they placed those bars on the image and the writing. See, they have an image that they got from wherever on the internet, put that minimalistic black transparent bar on the bottom and wrote "Texts" there, so that one would use it as a tile of sorts (as the theme they're going for is an "Android Phone 7" sort of thing"). I want to basically get images from wherever in the internet as well and use them for other applications. Like, create a, say, "Market" one, where the image I found will represent in some form, a market, and then put that black transparent bar in the image and type "Market" in some font in the corner like they did so that I can then use DesktopVisualizer to use the image as the icon in the manner shown in those posts. I'm assuming you can't just go and place a huge image (####x###) as the icon and hope it fits right. They resized theirs down to like 355x115 or something. Every time I try to resize something like that, though, it does not like it in the least. So, I'm wondering how they did that, too.

In a sense, they're like icon sets, if you will, and I want to then expand their offerings, as they only offer "icons" for a few applications or needs.

God, what a text wall. Sorry!

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ageesm:
The text is just in the image, it isn't some magical add-on. It is probably just a black rectangle and then transparency adjusted to taste.

There are a handful of win7 style icon packs like that. You could use one of those as a template (for size) and use your own images and text. Minimal PS or GIMP experience needed. Just keep the aspect ratio of the images when you are resizing them and provided they aren't absurdly larger than the ~355x115 or whatever size you are aiming for they should still look fine.
