[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] butchconner:
LisaBham,

Yes, you probably will need a microSD card and it's good to get one that comes with an adapter so it fits in a SD slot to read/write. Also, if your computer does not have

a built-in reader that reads micro- or SD cards, you might need an adapter to USB.

Main thing is that you have two options, it looks like to me:

1. If you have a microSD card, you can make a CWM Recovery card out of it. Then

you can possible load CWM and get it to work even though you at looping (and BTW,

that's not your fault -- G-Tabs just do that one in a while.):

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1020747

If you can get CWM loaded and up, go to Advanced and run the Partition (2048 and 0)

option and the Fix Permissions Option and the Wipe Dalvik Cache option. Then go back to the Main Menu and run the Wipe Cache and Wipe/Reset Factory Data.

The shut down, boot and see if the G-Tablet will come up and work.

2. If one doesn't fix the looping problem, then you will need to continue and nvflash

back to a fresh, stock copy of the os.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=861950

If you follow this thread all the way through, it installs a copy of bekit 1105 which is stock version 2638. Assuming that boots and runs, the when you hook up the wifi

connection it shortly will offer you an OTA (over the air) upgrade to 3588. Then

you are back to where you can do what you want to.

Hope this helps.

I know their is one that reads txt messages and emails does it work with the atrix anyone know?

Or what headset are you currently using with the atrix? and do you like it or not?

also are the ear wrap around comfortable and how does your headset fair outside say versus the wind?
[Atrix 4G Accessories] ECdOc:
I have the Rocketfish RF-MAB2 which I used with my Fuze and now the Atrix, which works great. I like the behind the head style because i can wear a helmet when I'm skateboarding or biking with no interference. I'll never go back to a wired headphone setup.

http://www.rocketfishproducts.com/products/mobile-phones-gps/RF-MAB2.html

I bought my fiance the Sony DR-BT50 set because she prefers that style which blocks out more noise. Those also work great but are much more expensive than the rocketfish.

Bluetooth Headset

I love bluetooth, currently I use with my Atrix

Motorola Finiti

Motorola Oasis

Motorola Endeavor

Motorola H9

Motorola S605

Motorola EQ5

Oakley Motorola O ROKR PRO

all work very well. My favorite is the Finiti. Using the Finiti with MotoSpeak is great! Also I use MotoSpeak with the Oasis which also works well and is maybe a little more comfortable but not as secure in the ear

I discovered that I can use MotoSpeak to answer by just saying "answer" with most of my Motorola products; S605, O ROKOR PRO and H9 all work by voice command to answer a call if I use the slider to enable vibrate mode.

Hope this helps

I also use the Finity. It sounds amazing. I have the newest two versions of the jawbone and they work fine too, with one big difference: The finity reduces wind noise better than Jawbone, but the jawbone has a louder speaker, but otherwise both brands are solid.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] LockeCPM4:
AT&T stores have the Era in (at least the one I work at does). I like the Era but I never use the shake commands.

[Atrix 4G Accessories] Doxy17:
Is the sound quality reduced at all over bluetooth? or is it still just the normal digital signal? I am considering getting a bluetooth adapter for my car stereo... but if it doesn't sound very good, i'll figure out something else. :-P
[Atrix 4G Accessories] beatphreek:
I just got a JVC unit with a Bluetooth dongle and it sounds really good to me. It's definitely CD quality and its good enough to tell the difference between high bit rate mp3's and 128kbps mp3's over the stock speakers.

I use the Jambox by Jawbone with my Atrix. The Jambox travels to a few rooms and works great, especially for morning radio and podcasts. Battery life is astounding on that thing and uses the same micro USB charging connection.

For in-ear audio, I am still a big fan of wired headphones. Unless you can tell me otherwise, I don't think the sound quality can be matched with bluetooth.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] joyo22:
I was wondering if the MW600 Sony Ericsson Bluetooth Stereo Headset actually works with the Atrix. I mean, can it change the track and do vol up and down?

I read many reviews saying if you turn off the headset via the power button, only way to turn it on back is to connect to it's wall charger. That kept me from buying Finiti. Do you experience this issue?

how about Backbeat 903 by paltronics?? i am thinkin of buyin one.. and i hope it works with the atrix...does it??
[Atrix 4G Accessories] jjwatmyself:
I'm a Jawbone fan all the way. The vibration sensor that touches the cheek is amazing on ELIMINATING loud background noise. The videos that demonstrate are the real deal. The Jawbone II is the first of their small products and can be had for around $30. The newer versions offer additional improvements but the budget aware will still get all the technology that Jawbone stands for. I've been thinking about upgrading from my Jawbone 2, but the differences are not worth it until this little thing dies.
[General Questions and Answers] JashVee:
So i know there is alot of posts about this error but after reading many on different sites and trying just about everything im exhausted and really need some help.

A day after i had updated my streak to dj_steve's 1.9.0 everything was working fine, then after a sudden reset my phone would just loop on the dell logo. I went into clockwork mod's recovery and it had an error of:

E: Can't find MISC:

E:Can't mount /dev/block/innersd0p5

(file exists)

E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/command

E:Can't find MISC:

E:Can't mout /dev/block/innersd0p5

(file exists)

E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log

E:Can't find MISC:

E:Can't mout /dev/block/innersd0p5

(file exists)

(excuse any errors i typed this in by hand)

After reading some posts people had said that it was an inner sd failure so i ran the fast boot test *#301# then option 10 to test inner sd.

Everything passed so that was not the issue

Afterward's i tried installing the 1.9.0 zip(dj_steve) through streak recovery thinking it was an issue with clockwork mod. Unfortunately this did not work either, but i can mount my sd card through the usb cable in streak recovery once again proving its not an sd issue.

After this i followed another thread on installing the stock recovery and rom image, this did not work either.

Next i used streak droid's QDL tool following all instructions and everything passed successfully, at this point things changed for once. I could use the streak stock recovery to apply an update.pkg (I used the stock offical dell rom) however afterwards the streak reboots and sits at the dell logo flashing purple with the 3 lower home led's flashing every 30 seconds or so (it previously was just showing the dell logo for a period of time then restarting). Unfortunately it just sits at this screen, forever...I even left it overnight unplugged and woke up to it drained and when i plugged it in it just did the same thing.

I have also tried a few other things but can't think of them off the top of my head, i've sunk in about 24 hours of non stop reading and flashing to fix this and still turn up with nothing.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated

I'll even give you some paypal money to buy redbull and stay up to help me fix this. SO MUCH REDBULL
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patches152:
as it relates to this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1014003, i'm now asking the opposite. which features/apps/overall experiences do you like about sense?

i didn't wanna take the other thread too off topic and debate why one specific app sucks and start to argue over it. i'd like purely positive feedback about which aspects of sense you like directly vs any other UI you've used (blur, touchwiz, vanilla, etc)

i'm not doing any research for any particular company or anything like that, just my personal curiosity.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miketoasty:
Well lets start off with where I came from. My first Android phone was the Droid 2. I don't know if anyone has seen but the Droid 2 has a rediculous Motoblur UI. The one thing I noticed right off the bat was how "Laggy" it was. The first chance I had I rooted it and installed the first ROM I could that stripped all the Motoblur and the phone ran much, much better. Not to mention that most of the blur crap was completely useless (Yes cause I need a widget that lets me post to facebook, wait theres an app for that? <.<).

Ok so you know my feelings on Motoblur so first chance I had I jumped ship to an HTC phone which was luckily the Thunderbolt. The second I booted the phone I saw all the sense stuff and I was like oh here we go again, but I decided I would try it out for a bit. And well, suprisingly, I loved it! The sense widgets are actually useful (Calender, Music, FM radio) and the phone runs extremely smooth with the sense. I actually took my time and waited for a good rooting method since other than the bloatware the phone was basically perfect.

Okay well I know that wasn't what you were asking but I have been dieing to get that off my chest ever since I bought this phone. So now to the things I like.

Notification bar looks pretty good.

Messaging and phone apps are pretty decent.

You can change themes (Somewhat) by just switching skins which is built into the phone.

Lock screen has plenty of use.

It runs smooth as butter, no real modifications needed.

Thats all I can think of for now but on the contrary there is no real reason I have for leaving Sense, I use Das BAMF which adds the features I want with sense integrated. I think its perfect.... For me.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajuabju:
I've always liked sense, even when I was on Windows Mobile.

It runs smooth, its well polished, has pretty decent support from HTC. I think the interface is one of the best, and can be customized to my taste pretty nicely.

I've used other launchers, SPB Shell, etc. But I always come back to Sense
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmyeti:
1. Sense calendar app is much better than touchwiz. You can actually click a phone number in a conference call meeting request and have the phone dial.

2. The exchange integration is also quite a bit better. Meeting requests show full details and give you a heads up if you are already booked for a given time slot.

3. Flip for speaker phone and ringer silence is pretty awesome.

4. Scenes/skins are okay, i don't use them too much, but it's nice to be able to ditch all the work related widgets/apps on the weekends.

5. I personally like recent apps in the notification shade, but i know some people hate it.

6. Calendar/messaging/clock widgets are really nice, love the live weather.

7. auto increase of ringtone volume when the phone is in a pocket is pretty awesome.

8. lock screen message preview is cool as are the stock lock screen music controls

9. dark notification bar (hate the old school ASOP)

launcherPro has sense like widgets, and i'm sure there are docks that look like the sense dock. Also get beautiful widgets, they have a clock that looks similar to the sense clock.

[G2 and Desire Z General] guhl99:
Hi !

I would like to warn everybody that the use of the permanent root option of visionary can lead to an unrecoverable brick!

Lately we are facing an increasing number of bricked phones that have been created by an attempt to permanent root the G2 (or Desire Z) using visionary.

While there is still cure for Desire Z phones (even if it is a complicated procedure) there are certain conditions for the G2 where nothing can be done to rescue the phone.

These are the conditions:

- the phone is S-ON and not SuperCID

- the hboot and the recovery are still stock

- the main software version is 1.22

When visionary corrupts the system partition (which it does some times) the phone can not boot anymore. And as there is no original stock rom (PC10IMG.zip) for the G2 that has software version 1.22 or higher the stock rom can not be installed from hboot.

And with the stock recovery there is also no chance to cure the system partition or change the main version in the misc partition.

But even if the brick can be cured for other phones (Desire Z, Desire HD) this is totally unnecessary because the phones can be rooted and freed by methods that do not have any risk at all (even if you do some steps wrong).

The method that I highly recommend to use is the one described on the XDA-wiki at http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_Vision_.28G2.2FDZ.29_and_DHD.

This method is constantly maintained and is the most up to date method.

If you really are not able or willing to use adb I would recommend the method described by ianmcquinn in the thread "[GUIDE] Permanent Root with Visionary/gfree (No ADB Required)" at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=928160

It is less up to date but it uses visionary only to gain temporary root and it uses scripts for the necessary commands so that the risk of bricking the phone by typos in important commands is minimized.

Scotty2 and I (and a lot of other people) tried our best to make the rooting process as easy and risk less as possible and therefore it is very frustrating to see people who bricked their phones by using an unnecessary, outdated and risky method.

Thanks and have fun - Guhl

Update 05/15/2011:

Since football dropped the new gingerbread T-Mobile ROM (see http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1074391) a G2 bricked by visionary can be cured. (which is a complicated procedure of course)
[G2 and Desire Z General] shortlived:
I think this is/should already stickied however no one seems to read stickies... Thanks for posting the warning again though.
[G2 and Desire Z General] tooter1:
On my first G2 I used the visionary method and it messed up after about 2 weeks.

It wouldn't connect to the wireless network.

On my second G2 I used the gfree/rage method and, it has worked just fine.

I'm sure with all the visionary problems people are having, it probably had something to do with mine going bad.
[G2 and Desire Z General] theratdude64:
I am waiting on an insurance replacement G2, glad I found this. I rooted mine the very first method that was posted. So does Visionary have a checkbox in the app or something to permanent root? I was using the first release of it.

:edit Just got my G2 from UPS at 1:20, and now at 1:50 I am already flashing CM7 :) Visionary is great, glad I saw not to do Perm Root attempt though haha
[G2 and Desire Z General] helpslip:
dumb? question

i rooted my g2 a few weeks back, installed the cyanogenmod 7(which seems solid btw) & honestly dont remember the method i used (it took multiple tries over multiple posts/guides/websites) but i recall visionary was involved at some point.

anyhow should i be worried about this thing becoming useless? should i be reinstalling/uninstalling something? are there any precautions i should be taking? is there a way to tell what method i used?

sorry if im cluttering this thread up, i really try not to post if possible(searching usually answers my dumb questions) THANKS! tho
[G2 and Desire Z General] theratdude64:
If you're already rooted you should be good. The method that uses VISIONary/Gfree was posted in January, the latest thing that said it could cause any problems was an update on December 23rd, and from what I understand is that you'd have to downgrade a Desire Z... Didn't say anything about a G2. I'm sitting here waiting for UPS then I'll be doing this.
[G2 and Desire Z General] helpslip:
hmm ok, thanks, ill continue to slowly set it up for use than & keep an eye out for additional posts/info on the subject. i sure would hate to doorstop the thing before even using it.

Well, I used the Visionary + gfree way to permanent root today, and it went smoothly, on the 1st try, no problems, as of yet. I ran root check and noticed that busybox isn't installed.

Whats up everyone?

OK real quick because this has had a little more insight to my situation than what i have been able to find. a guy called me up yesterday and wanted to know if i could root his g2. well apparently.... he attempted to do this on his own and used visionary and messed up his phone. bootscreen heaven. stuck on htc.

Hboot. 0.82.0

radio 26.03.02.26

SHIP S- ON

I have no control over adb.... says device is offline but at least recognized. and shows devid. is this phone a lost cause or can someone toss me a bone without telling me to read this and go here or there?

i have been searching since 5pm yesterday and it is now 1030am.

I have been able to load an update through the stock recovery and it shows that it went well. when it reboots to the screen with the grean circle arrows over the phone, it doesnt seem to take enought time to be loading image or other software. and when its done and reboots, its still stuck on htc screen.

any help would be greatly appreciated and sorry if i cluttered up this thread.

I agree with this thread but back then there was only one root tool for the HTC Desire Z or G2 persay. If there is another tool I am unwilling to unroot and reroot again if possible. But I agree that Visionary++ increases the chances of a bricked phone with a percent of about 55%

[G2 and Desire Z General] redpoint73:
If you used Visionary, and it worked, then you don't need to worry about unrooting and rooting again. If there were going to be any problems, it would have happened as you were rooting. If you didn't run gfree, and are not Super-CID, S-Off, then you might want to do that (you still can). But otherwise, you are good to go.
