[Thunderbolt General] schwab16:
Thanks for the help, the problem I'm having now is I got 3g but I can't get 4G back, I have tried to switch my settings back to get 4G using LTE on/off and by dialing the number, and I have had no luck, in those menus it tells me service type LTE but it is disconnected, and I get no data or 4G symbol in the status bar, so I'm confused if I maybe messed up a setting or what, so should I just try a factory restore via the bootloader and see if that works? Any other suggestions ?
[Thunderbolt General] 3|Saint|5:
I would try the factory reset from bootloader, but I was on the stock ROM when I did it. So I don't know if that would matter or not.
[Thunderbolt General] SmokingPope:
Just to reiterate, my 4G never came back. The phone was just broken. It sounds suspiciously like you are having the same issue. Maybe there is a manufacturing defect that makes this issue more prevalent with this phone right now? If you are in the 14 day return period, set your modem and radio settings back and get into the store ASAP to swap the phone out. Otherwise, call customer service and have them replace the phone. They will overnight you a new phone if you complain enough.
[Thunderbolt General] schwab16:
Ok I was looking through my modem settings after dialing ##778 and I had changed the rev a. Setting to enable, that got my 3g working, but what is eHRPD is that would I should have it on too have 3g/4g? But everytime I have tried setting it to that I get no data so is that the setting that is messed up?

[HTC Inspire 4G] gmanunited:
You can get the Apps installed just like you did with the Amazon App store with SLWM. Amazon APPs are downloaded to your Storage Card. Here is how.

1. Get Sideload Wonder Machine.

2. Get Any File Explorer from the Market. I use ES File Explorer-No Root Needed

3. The Files are located on your Storage Card in this folder location.....

/Android/data/com.amazon.venezia/cache

4. The Files or .APK will be under amazon names....

5. Depending on your File Explorer you can see the APK image....

6. Use SLWM to install the APK's....or Copy them to a different location.

Some of the APK's will be deleted if the Amazon App Store is deleted. Some will not. It depends on the developer.....

Here is another Link.....

Hope this helps.

Wondering if there is a mod to activate the backlight on softkeys when the screen is on and not have them dependent on the light sensor. Its seems as though it needs to be pitch black for the keys to illuminate. This isn't very helpful in low light situations. Mainly asthetics, but it'd be helpful as well.

kinda sad that a phone thats been out for almost a year is getting gingerbread before the atrix. i think its ATT's fault. they seem to delay OS updates, at least they did for the captivate. both rogers and bell got froyo months before att. maybe ATT wants to make sure all the features it wants disabled are in working like wifi hotspot?
[Atrix 4G General] Magic_Bunny:
True. Im already regretting buying my Atrix, too late to return it though. But also Motorola was asking for beta testers to sign up to test 2.3. :(
[Atrix 4G General] drock212:
Looks like this is for unbranded galaxy s phones though. In the US it takes longer cause the carriers are modding the OS to add all their useless bloatware crappola an it's usually the carrier that pushes the updates not the manufacturer. But hopefully with the update to enable hsupa we get a couple of extra goodies.
[Atrix 4G General] neotekz:
motorola is getting beta testers for gingerbread? did they put up a sign up like for the update or just announce it?
[Atrix 4G General] rjayflo:
Motor is asking for beta testers? If so...then GB will be released
[Atrix 4G General] blaque72:
Motorola isnt beta testing 2.3
[Atrix 4G General] bigb252:
+1.

I'll believe it when I see it myself!
[Atrix 4G General] raybond25:
it makes sense that the phone that's been out for a year gets it first....

since google released the 2.3 source code, the company has been doing nothing but preparing an update most likely. motorola however, needed to iron out kinks in their initial 2.2 release before they can consider developing a 2.3 OS, and then allowing carriers to modify it to your liking.

obviously you didn't think about what has to be done to come up with a polished 2.3 update before it can be released as an official OTA update. you really can't fault motorola for this not being out yet. it takes a lot of time, testing, and effort to release a finished product.
[Atrix 4G General] Silent8Strike:
Raybond, I agree with everything you said, but its hard to cut Motorola any slack for this when the phone should have come with 2.3 in the first place. On top of that they lock the bootloader so we cant get 2.3 working on our own either....
[Atrix 4G General] raybond25:
well, the problem is that they probably started dev for the atrix's OS before 2.3 was released, so it would have been even more work, and probably would have caused delays in their release of the phone if they had shipped it with 2.3

I know locked bootloader is a massive drag for 3rd party dev, but you really can't fault moto for any decisions they've made with this phone other than that.
[Atrix 4G General] slimslim:
I guess this is the price we pay for having a subsidized drvice. Unfortunately... although we pay double for it in years of service.
[Atrix 4G General] neotekz:
not really, you are going to be paying a carrier either way just without a contract. the cost of the subsidy doesnt get added to your bill. either this or buy a phone for full price like in europe.

i read that google is going to be releasing ice cream sandwich sometime this summer. maybe motorola is going to skip gingerbread? i wouldnt mind waiting until the end of the year if it means we get 2.4.
[Atrix 4G General] ccrows:
You would have to skip over "Gingerbread" AND "Honeycomb" to get to ICS.

That's not gonna happen...
[Atrix 4G General] Paschalis:
Yes moto does.

I read it on moto official forum.

And you need to fill a form or something before a date...

I would if my phone wasn't unlocked..

---------------

EDIT:

My fault!!!! Sorry guys!!!

I didn't read the whole post from moto forum. At the end of that post there is an edit, that says it was about the 1.5.7 update we already got! My mistake, my fault, sorry :-)
[Atrix 4G General] raybond25:
actually you're not skipping honeycomb....

honeycomb is a totally different series in Android OS, tablet-specific series to be precise (3.0)

So, gingerbread is 2.3, and ICS is 2.4. Also, rumour has it that ICS will have full dual-core support, so it would make logical sense for Moto to not waste any time with 2.3 and go straight for dev in 2.4
[Atrix 4G General] neotekz:
ice creme sandwich is a blend features of both gingerbread and honeycomb made specifically for phones. you will not be seeing honeycomb on an android phone backed by google. that one reason google is not releasing honeycomb source yet, they dont want to have honeycomb phones out there.

i thought gingerbread is suppost to be optimized for dual cores too.
[Atrix 4G General] neotekz:
link please?
[Atrix 4G General] raybond25:
i believe that it has some modicum of support for dual core, but is not completely optimized for it as 2.4 will be.

that's just my understanding, if someone could provide a link to prove me wrong then i'd freely accept it.

[Atrix 4G General] decoyd:
2.4 is also being called Gingerbread, not Ice Cream Sandwich.
[Atrix 4G General] ranova:
this thread is pointless.

Lets push motorola to unlock the bootloader before releasing Gingerbread. Tell me, what in gingerbread are you so desperately needing? Ive used it on the nexus one, nothing worth crying over... the better battery is minimal and unnoticeable.
[Atrix 4G General] noxlord:
There is currently no Tegra2 device on Gingerbread and this is why I suspect nvidia to be behind the delay with hardware drivers.

Considering the huge power boost GB gave to the N1, I expect the Atrix to kick some serious asses when the update finally comes.

The whole webtop thing might also be a potential cause for delays.
[Atrix 4G General] decoyd:
Not true. Gingerbread for Tegra 2 has been out for a while. http://nv-tegra.nvidia.com/android/manifest.git/ While there are no Tegra phones with Gingerbread, the Xoom runs honeycomb which shares many of the enhancements of Gingerbread. Afaik, it was only split into a separate project because it was designed specifically for tablets. I don't know how many platform-specific drivers have to be built for a new Android release.

On a side note, Gingerbread was spotted running on the Atrix in March. https://supportforums.motorola.com/message/347823#347823 Obviously, it's a rumor, so take it for what it's worth.
[Atrix 4G General] neotekz:
lol why cant we ask for both? i can be wrong but i think gingerbread will be a different experience on the atrix than nexus one. GPU acceleration and dual core optimization is enough reason for me. we cant even play galaxy on fire cause it needs gingerbread. if you dont want gingerbread then dont accept the update, simple.

this comment made me laugh now that samsung is the first company to release gingerbread update and source code.
[Atrix 4G General] fastbikedroid:
Ridiculous

I think Motorola should send us all a little rebate just for not keeping this thing cutting edge.
[Atrix 4G General] GregRexAdams:
I wouldn't be jealous of Galaxy S anything. I had a Captivate, and went through the long process of getting a glimmer of hope that 2.2 would be released within a month or two, just to have it pushed back again and again. Trust me when I say that even if it is released on a foriegn GS platform, Motorola will probably beat the American versions to market with 2.3.
[Atrix 4G General] neotekz:
i had the captivate too but the Rogers one. it wasnt just samsung's fault that the US captivate didn't get 2.2 for a while i think it was ATT holding it back. i had the official 2.2 on my canadian captivate months before the ATT version.

[HD2 General] conantroutman:
3G you can just turn off in Comm Manager.....

Tap your taskbar...

Tap the network connection icon..

Scroll down to the 3G toggle.

You cannot disable 2G as that would leave you with no signal at all.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
You arecright you can turn the 3G off in community manager but you firstchave to do the registry edit to make the 3G in community manager appear, remember it is hidden by defualt. You can find the registry edit in the "Leo Hints, Tips and Registry Tweaks" thread tweak #49. Or you can install Touch Tools or BSB Tweaks witch can do most of those tweaks for you if you are scared to mess with your registty. I personally like Touch Tools better than BsB Tweaks bit that is just me. Go the links below to check out the thread and the two apps.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moh7071:
My phone is unlocked and rooted. My problem is that when I go to FASTBOOT MODE, then go into RECOVERY, then when I press 'apply update from /sdcard' it shows nothing in there. So, I just stuck and unable to flash any rom at all. I tried to go into the SD card through my computer to install a ROM so that I have something to flash, but nexus s has only internal storage. Please help?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdaly985:
Hi

Hi, I bought my nexus s, immediately after I tried to root, and failed, this left me in the same situation as you.

You NEED to install the adb drivers, and boot using odin files. It was pretty tricky but i got there in the end, i was bricking it too :), but dont worry, there's a 98% chance its not bricked, ill find the files for you now...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Buried:
Go to mount drives and mount your storage from there. That's what I did.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdaly985:
Right, first of all, boot into the bootloader on your Nexus S, and i'm assuming that all your drivers are working fine because you have already unlocked your bootloader.

Place the files in the zip download inthe following places

WIN32bitOS: Program files/Android/Android-sdk/tools

WIN64bitOS: Program files (x86)/Android/Android-sdk/tools

Next, open a command prompt, and type in the following commands, (C: is your windows installation hard drive letter, leave as default if you dont know what this means)

if your 32bit type this w/o quotes "cd C:/Program files/Android/Android-sdk/tools

64bit "cd C:/Program files (x86)/Android/Android-sdk/tools

and click enter.

Next you want to make sure that your Nexus S is in bootloader mode, connected to your pc.

Type the following.

fastboot flash boot boot.img

[click enter & wait until it says successful]

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

[click enter & wait until it says successful]

fastboot flash system system.img

[click enter & wait until it says successful]

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

[click enter & wait until it says successful]

Reboot and you should go into android 2.3

Next time make a nandroid backup in clockwork mod! :)

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdaly985:
Yeah

Yeah sure,

Root your phone, go to market place, download rom manager. Open the app and click the button that says, Fash Clockwork Recovery.

Shut down your phone when the operation has completed. Go inot bootloader mode, click recovery. Navigate to backup and restore. Go into backup and restore, click backup. Voila.

If you ever need to restore do the same but click restore. Pretty simple when you know what to do

If this has left you confused, look around on XDA/google, there are a ton of guides

Thanks very much cdaly.. I am just a bit confused regarding phone is rooted or not.

I got to the point flash recovery was sucessfuly in command prompt, but when i try to install "su-2.3.6.1-cd-signed.zip" from SD card, it wasn't successful, as in there is no "superuser" icon after reboot and i have tried wifi tether and it says my phone is not root.

Now i havent tried "su-2.3.6.1-ef-signed.zip" because i accidently bricked my phone for some stupid things i did. but my phone is NOT root as long as I don't see the superuser program right?

I thought nandroid is an actual program but it just means backing up through bootloader?

Thanks for all your help!!!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdaly985:
I dont know if NANDROID is a program or not, it just use it via clockwork mod recovery menu and it works so I'm not complaining aha

If you want to root your nexus s, download this zip file and extract, make sure that your nexus s is in bootloader mode and double click "install-superboot-windows" Bingo, you have root.

It wouldn't hurt to try but I dont think so. If you can go into boot-camp or use a friends PC. Or you can try this.

Change your folder to the plaform-tools folder. I dont know how to do this, just referencing off of http://rootzwiki.com/wiki/index.php/Samsung_Nexus_S

Next type

"./fastboot flash boot boot.img"

"./fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

"./fastboot flash system system.img"

"./fastboot flash userdata userdata.img"
