[Atrix 4G General] elementaldragon:
Well... there was that one thing where AT&T is supposedly locking out, or might be locking out phones that have been determined to be rooted. But the fact of the matter is, if they do that with absolutely no reason other than the phone being rooted, i'm sure you'll see a class action lawsuit about it since rooting/jailbreaking a cell phone is legal now according to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. The only reason i can see them disabling service is if you root it, and use one of the alternate methods of tethering, and wind up using a TON of bandwidth.... well over what anyone would even remotely do on just the phone if they didn't have any tethering package or way to tether. Then you'd basically be using their networks in a way that could be deemed illegal. But there's no issue with just rooting it to use applications not approved by the carrier or phone manufacturer.

[Atrix 4G General] JohnnyDanger:
I think rooting is a must. The use of sideloading alone is worth it. I would hate to not be able to use the Amazon Appstore, Ive really come to like it.

One thing to mention though. The Blockbuster app detects root and wont allow content to be purchased because of DRM concerns. I dont know if this will be a problem with future apps.
[Atrix 4G General] janggu:
Yeah, I did!

I rooted my Atrix with "gladroot" last night. :) Can't wait to customize it now.

I know right. I was just using that as an example. Never know what might be blocked next.
[Droid X General] Jmoney47:
I don't know if anyone else has been having this issue but I've been having a starnge problem on the gingerbread leak. This has been present for both stock and drod's blurrybread rom.

When using my browser to watch videos, I will often leave the browser running and use different apps while the video is loading. This was fine until I went to gingerbread. When coming back to my browser, I would find that the browser had stopped running and had to reload the page causing me to lose all progress on the loading video. I have tried several different browsers and the same thing has happened.

Is there any way to stop this? It really is a pain to have to stay in the browser and watch it load
[Droid X General] Jmoney47:
Nobody at all?
[Droid X General] Sheen160:
I'm pretty sure Gingerbread is still at the default of 25mb of ram free at least. But you can try downloading spare parts and changing it to mild or non-aggressive whatever it's called. What I usually do is use a task killer to end all my apps before opening the browser, since flash takes up a lot of memory. That way if I do close out of it for a second it usually won't get killed. Hope this helps.
[Droid X General] Jmoney47:
Thanks for the reply. But it is usually fine if I go back after a second. I'm talking aboutt if I leave for 15-30 minutes. Is there a way to exclude the browser I use from the internal task killer?
[Droid X General] Sheen160:
Not that I know of. I think Android decides how "important" the app is to keep open. Usually their apps come first.
[Droid X General] Jmoney47:
That makes sense. I'll have to find a way to set my own priorities inside of it

I have a 3500mAh extended battery from Hong Kong(yes i know) and have bmw on homescreen but when i open it up its displaying 1500/1500mAh when 100% charged...does that mean that I really dont have a 3500mAh battery or will it just not show on bmw?

Actually in BMW you can change the settings to show it as 3500, granted its probably not actually 3500. Settings>Monitoring preferences>battery capacity

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gpz1100:
The battery capacity statistic in BMW is misleading. It's derived from either the default setting of 1500 mah, or any other arbitrary number you provide in the settings section. During use, the remaining mah available is also misleading. It's simply computed based on percentage of battery reported (which in itself is not entirely accurate to begin with) multiplied by the # entered in settings for mah. GIGO...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrian2pm:
i did this..but it keeps going back to 150000
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EliWay:
Hate to say it, but most likely you are in fact carrying this big battery for nothing. It has been proven with proper equipment (See this), and even by myself doing a somewhat unscientific test (Taking an OEM 1500mAh and an Ebay 3500, draining their juice, then putting them both to charge on a wall charger. The OEM actually took LONGER to charge fully, meaning it had more capacity.)

Crazy? Maybe. You get what you pay for I think. I just don't think it's worth making your phone big and bulky for nothing.
[Milestone 2 General] kabusza:
Hi guys I could really use your help.

I can not fix my problem with my Motorola Milestone 2.

1) When I turn on the phone, the keyboard stays dark and front touch keys too. To turn on the keyboard and front touch keys I need to press power button once and after MM2 goes dark press it again to whake up my MM2, after this keyboard turns on. The keyboard and the touch keys are dark when some one tryes to call me, the phone is ringign but keyboard and front keys are dark

2) sometimes I can not answer the call, I can see the caller ID and everything but touchscreen doesn't respond.

I've tryied wipe ( wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache) and re-flashing with the same stock UK rom ( with RSDLite).

So can enyone please help me.... ?:confused:
[Milestone 2 General] agent008my:
what do u mean by front keys? as in the 4 soft keys?

i had the same problem with my phone (very dim notification LED and soft key lights). i sent it back for the manufacturers warranty, and apparently there's a part on the motherboard thats faulty. if you send yours back for a warranty claim you could get the problem fixed.
[Milestone 2 General] kabusza:
Yes I ment front softkeys. At the moment I have NO idea what to do with it.
[Milestone 2 General] AragornPE:
I have/had the same problems as you do. I didn't find a solution for the keyboard and softkeys backlight problems, but I don't find them so annoying. I think it's just a little tweak and it'll be solved. About the non-responsive touchscreen while answering calls, I realized that it was my fault: I always put my MM2 on my pockets with the screen turned to my legs, as an old habit, since I've owned a lot of Nokias and their screens weren't that strong, and being a mechanical engineer I've always had sharp things on my pockets (screwdrivers, screws, washrings, you name it). What happens is that the screen is SO sensitive that it can sense the skin of your leg, and when it gets a imediate response when receiving a call, it would "crash" while it was still ringing. I could see who was calling, I was able to silence the ringtone through hardkeys, but the touchscreen was basically dead during the call. The solution that I found was to turn the screen side to outside, and I never had this problem again. It's a peopleware problem =P

Hope that helps you.
[Milestone 2 General] r2beta0:
If you attach a rubber square to the back of your pocket (between pocket and leg skin) you may be able to solve this problem :)

BTW, gorilla glass is very strong against scratches, but it breaks easily. I'll keep my screen turned to my leg.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naifs_br10:
hello everybody i need some help with two issues that have tested my patience and now im at breaking point.

1) everytime my text message is too long it becomes a MMS i have data runnning and everything but the MMS or text it wont go through neither does picture messaging or any other time of MMS it just says downloading but it doesnt go beyond that.

2) my school has poor service. now if i send a text message the vibrant tells me message has failed. which is fine. but is there a way where the message keeps on trying to send till it catches a signal by itself instead of me goign back and forth trying to find a signal and resending the text again and again and again and again. similar to like BB and nokia. where they phone keeps trying to send.

im really frustrated with these things if i could get any help i would be really greatful

im running Trigger 2.9.2

great appreciate any help or information regarding this.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tKoHaXoR:
You should download the AOSP MMS.apk and flash it through CWM to replace the MMS.apk that comes with Trigger. That should fix the mms not sending issue. If that doesn't help, download GO! SMS from the market and send the MMS through that app and that should clear up network errors and your mms should go through.

http://teamwhiskey.com/temp/AOSPmms.zip
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reddragon72:
for your first issue it is a phone number format issue. remove the +1 and - from all your numbers. There is an app in the market that will do this, but I have forgotten the name.

for you second issue there is no auto retry on android. This is something your just going to have to deal with. If I were you I would not load any other SMS apps as I have seen some issues with my messages going to wrong people after swapping out one MMS.APK for another. just retry your message manually and hopefully google will add auto resend one day.

This would be my first time rooting so I would like to hear some suggestions. What is best mod to use & steps in doing this? I see so many and not sure what to choose.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Khilbron:
There is no real Best way, they all accomplish the same task. You need to choose the way that you can understand the easiest, so read through them, if you have to sit and ask questions after every few steps, then you have found the way that you should NOT use.

Some people prever Unrevoked3 because its quick and easy, while others like the command line methods because it fits their style, and helps them learn more about their phone. When i first rooted I used Unrevoked3, because it was quick and simple. Then i rooted 15 Evo Shift's using ADB, I enjoyed rooting with ADB more, but its just more time consuming than Unrevoked.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pivo187:

[General Questions and Answers] PhantomZX2:
Hi Guys,

I just got a HD2 yesterday and installed CMYLXGO's Stock Desire HD2 build on it. Everything seems to be working nicely, but I've had one instance where it rebooted when I tried to wake it from sleep and another just now where the keypad lights up when I tried to wake it from sleep, but the screen doesn't turn on at all.

Unfortunately, I don't have enough post count to post in the actual build thread, so I was wondering if anyone here could provide some assistance.

Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] x1123:
I do like this CMYLXGO rom also, I flashed 1.17 lite edition on HD2 WWE, all went well. My problem is I have only 40 MB left on my internal disk (ROM). I used 285MB recovery as advised. I think the app2sd is not work well. I replaced with Frankenstine Droid v1.1 and all went well. I do like sense keyboard comparing to generic android keyboard. Sense keyboard is very comfortable to move the cursor up-down, right-left without touching the text area :)

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] justin94:
-1 for launcher pro plus widget. Its very limited. I use the official Facebook for android app for my notifications (which only work for me with the new ec01 rom) and I use seesmic if I want to copy a status or delete a post I made. I still use the lpp widget for news feed, but it takes a while to load. Just my 2 cents.

Edit- so seesmic also offers a widget that seems to update lather quickly and displays all feeds.

It's still free. It's ad-supported though.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] blackmamba0730:
There's an ad supported version and a paid version. I personally bought the paid version simply because this is, by far, the best Facebook app I've ever used. The developer is constantly updating and it gets better everyday. I love the gmail notification option instead of the periodic polling one. The UI is sharp and the performance is very smooth. Barely any lag at all, although sometimes that depends on your data connection. All in all, I highly recommend this app.

[G2 and Desire Z General] JaMoFo:
I sent my G2 back cause I broke the screen and they sent me a replacement that's refurbished. Not until after I fully rooted did I notice that the speaker pops and vibrates during phone calls. Do I have to unroot before I send this back or will they not notice?

Note that I did not have insurance and they charged me $107.
[G2 and Desire Z General] redpoint73:
S-Off? If so, they will notice almost instantly when the go into bootloader. Even if not, they will probably notice anyway. You should unroot.

[G2 and Desire Z General] JaMoFo:
S3BAZ10, let me know what they tell you.

I think I'm going to live with the bad audio rather than going thru the unrooting process.

[XPERIA X10 General] soblecram:
I have drained, reset, charged, drained, calibrated, reset to original rom, etc etc etc... No matter which ROM i use (currently on Trips MIUI103) my x10 will not go higher than 90%, then, even though it remains plugged in (and shows charging in Juiceplotter) it slowly drains until empty. Makes it difficult to plug in at night before I go to sleep, and to wake up to find it empty.

(At night I turn off Cell radio, 3g, wifi, bt, gps, etc etc etc) Does the same if the phone is off completely.

Any one have any ideas - it is not the battery, as i use my wifes battery and the same thing happens in my phone, but not in hers.
[XPERIA X10 General] OmegaRED^:
Well you may have a defective chipset or battery pack.

I suggest return it to SE.

Are you 100% that your apps or firmware isn't causing it?

Sounds like your phone is getting a run off current..

Does the Green "fully charged" LED ever show up.
[XPERIA X10 General] soblecram:
Yup. Green LED is on at 91% right now (the highest I have ever seen it). and if I wait, it will be green at 90%, 89% etc
[XPERIA X10 General] OmegaRED^:
Use the phone for one week without reseting or wiping the battery cache..

run it down all the way even when it reaches 1% leave it..

the moment it shuts down.

begin recharging..

"don't use the phone"

till the green led comes on.. leave it a extra 30 mins.

repeat this twice!

then use it normally for the rest of the week..

this time charging at 15% when the phone notifies you and leaving it at least 30 mins after the the green led comes on...

if this does not work... ship back to SE.
[XPERIA X10 General] soblecram:
Now battery doesn't charge at all (either the regular BST41 or the CSino 2600mah)

Luckily, under warranty, Rogers is sending one to replace. should be here today..
[XPERIA X10 General] svtfmook:
try removing the battery, then plugging it in (without the battery) for about 10-15 minutes.

unplug, put the battery in, plug it back in to charge.
[XPERIA X10 General] Perceval from Hyrule:
As far as I know, when you calibrate the battery (charge full, the wipe stats, back to 88% then recharge, 2-3 times), I never got 100% after it (always back to 88%, so I have to charge it up to 100%).

Try to wipe again battery stats from xrecovery :)

Check also the Wolfbreak's CM v054 (dev section), on the first post there's a trick for battery troubles, you might try it :)

Edit : check also your charging supply and use as possible the stock SE charger. Why ? Because x10 often charges bad/not/slowly with other charger, most of them use a lower mAh charging and the x10 loves high mAh :)
