[Atrix 4G Android Development] ratatouille:
After putting greyblur on my bell atrix I was prompted to do the its update to 1.8... should I do it?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bongd:
Please let me know if you give this a shot. I want to do this, but don't want to cook another phone if there's no way to bring it back from semibrick. If it were an AT&T Atrix I'd do everything nasty and then some. But with no SBF, I don't want to get castrated by the wife...

Really want the HSUPA as well as the fixed Skype/audio for the mic (or was that only for the latest AT&T update? I'd probably manually do this if so..)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] thegregulator:
As far as I understand, a nandroid backup will only allow you to restore your apps and settings and stuff like that. It would not restore the firmware. So if you flash 1.4.2 there is no way of going back to official Bell firmware (unless a Bell sbf comes out).
[Atrix 4G Android Development] thegregulator:
I've only had gingerblur on my phone for a day so I can't give a super detailed pro/cons list, but I can tell you I don't miss anything from stock Bell. My phone is much snappier (I didn't think my phone was slow before but my god it's quick now!). I couldn't set up a mobile hotspot, but there is a quick fix guide, as Seven pointed out earlier (http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1057665). I don't use Swype so the force close issue wasn't a big deal for me, I just deleted it from the phone using root explorer. The only thing I might miss from stock motoblur is the widgets, and from what I gather you can flash those through the bloatware.zip file. I tried flashing just the bloatware I wanted to keep and it froze my CWM so I quit, but when I have bit of time I'll try and figure out how to flash only parts of the bloatware that I would like. The uncapped HSUPA is good. All in all, I would do it again in a heartbeat. The only risk you take is that if you don't like it there is currently no way of going back to stock Bell. Although the Telestra firmware is perfectly adequate and it has uncapped upload speeds, so not being able to go back to Bell wasn't a huge deal for me.

As far as your fear of changing the radio, I flashed tons of different radios on my old Galaxy S and never had a problem (other than some didn't work as well as others). My reception hasn't changed since I've flashed the new radio. And I can still ensure my phone doesn't use data if I'm roaming. This can be found in Settings>Data Manager>Data Delivery. Hope this helps.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] seven2099:
It wont work. Going to create a quick guide on how to disable OTA nags and also enable tethering and wifi hotspots.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
yeah, this may or may not be true at this point, NFHimself has been doing some heavy work with the restore from Telstra --> Bell and he may have found a way to do it.

watch for the next week or two and you may see a way to return to stock Bell firmware from him. very impressive stuff from him and it may end up benefiting the Bell community to the extreme
[Atrix 4G Android Development] thegregulator:
Doesn't surprise me. That guy's slick. Thanks for the heads up!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] seven2099:
Yeah... umm where did you hear about this? Because he clearly states a nandroid backup is not like a full backup of your firmware or radio. Once you have flashed your radio as he already has there is no way to go back. Literally, by flashing your radio you are already disabling your phone for OTA updates so what's the point of that if you can just flash full 1.4.2 and reap all the benfits.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] seven2099:
There is no way you can brick this phone completely now and not recover. You'd use telstras 1.4.2 to unbrick and in the process reap the benefit of flashing newer ROM anyways so why would you even hesitate.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] doaneramma:
Sorry, been away for a bit. But I had tried AFTER applying a theme. Doing it unthemed seemed to work for the removal. but as soon as I copied it back in and fixed the permissions it started the force closing again. I'm using Root Explorer.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Barogi44:
Thanks! This helped a lot! :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] plemen:
NFHimself talks about the possibility of creating an SBF from the partitions of a Bell device in his SBF thread. Would be cool if it he was able to do this.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ratatouille:
All seems good but an awesome battery drain on my Belle Atrix Gingerblured 3.1. Any ideas?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bongd:
Awesome. And just because my mind has been a mess lately, if I do a Nandroid backup I can push that right after I've done all the steps in the first post? I don't have to do any sort of Advanced Restore or anything like that right? Just one and done?

I'll be reading over things again just to be on the safe side. Just switch to night shifts so my mind has been dull the last few days as I adjust. Thanks again!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] scorneil:
my battery life is also much worse than running frozen deodex

EDIT: reviewed the comprehensive bloatware list, and there are quite a few items on that list still in Gingerblur. Froze a lot of them, we'll see if that helps.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bongd:
Hey fellas, could you please calibrate your batteries too? It can be done via Recovery or using the new app in the Market. Gotta make sure you're reporting accurately. It'd be greatly appreciated because I haven't made the switch yet. :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] matthewngsm:
The 1.8.3 update keeps self-downloading and it is burning up my data... is there any way I can disable that?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] matthewngsm:
Forget it... there are already 2 threads out there regarding to this issue...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] scorneil:
calibrate made a big difference.

14h 19min since unplugged, still have 40% remaining (light use, display time on 47min)

so I'm happy, thanks that was a good tip
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bongd:
****... never used Gingerbreak before and wasn't aware that it formatted your internal memory. I backed everything up and thought I had copied the Nandroid backup to my computer... but it didn't!!!! FUCCCKK!!!!! :(

On the plus side it works at least. Have a month old backup but I took lots of pictures recently of my nephew who has cancer so this is heart breaking!!! :(
[Atrix 4G Android Development] scorneil:
Sorry to hear, that's awful
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bongd:
I'm so sad to have lost that content.. at least my wife had more pics and video. Ah well.. live and learn.

On the plus side this is working flawless and I never expected performance to be improved by this much. Only stuggle has been with getting Swype back. Tried the fix to no avail. Hmm...

Also, how do I change the notification bar color? GreyBlur is awesome but I don't care for the grey title bar to be honest. Can't see anything.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
just install any of the themes from the "Themes and Apps" section.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bongd:
I love the theme, it's just the notification bar which I wish to change. I think I actually found the thread in the Themes and Apps section though. Looks a bit engaging but maybe I'll give it a shot. Guess I can live with the notification bar though, it's just a bit faint.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barco13:
First off, thanks to all of the developers and everybody for putting together all of the great info in these forums. I'll try and keep my questions concise (but give enough details).

I got my Gtab in the mail on April 15. I was able to successfully install ClockworkMod & CyanogenMod with no issues. I did not have a micro-sd at the time and when I plugged my gtab into the computer it seemed to install a driver and I was able to access my gtab's device directory--fast forward to yesterday.

Since round 1 of installing the Rom went better than I expected, I thought I would try to upgrade to the latest version of CyanogenMod or try out Vegantab. When I attempt to load ClockworkMod, I receive the "recovery key detected", the Android on a black screen no viewsonic birds before that, and then just standard cyanogenmod boot-up.

So I thought I would install Clockwork again. When I plug in my Gtab, I can only access my micro-sd card that I purchased last week (no device directory). I moved the files manually (via Astro) to /mnt/emmc as I thought this was the device directory....still no clockworkmod. Astro wouldn't let me via not giving me the option to copy to the / directory, not sure why. Under storage settings, I have an SD card, Internal Storage, Additional storage /mnt/emmc, & additional storage /mnt/usbdisk (not sure if that is relevant or not)

Just wondering how I can get clockworkmod installed again or how to move the recovery and update.zip to a location it will recognize? Seems odd the Viewsonic Birds don't greet me anymore as well. Am I stuck in some sort of boot process?

Just kind of wondering where to go from here as I would like to try out different roms. Thanks in advance!

i have the same problem on my gtab with VEGAn-TAB GE RC1

[HTC Inspire 4G] AlwaysInspired:
Got an inspire for an amazing price. (less than 200).

But it has a crack in the digitizer, I intend on fixing it for 40-80 dollars.

I've done this several times with iphones and arias, but I heard the Inspire is really easy to screw up and crack the screen (lcd)

Has anyone attempted digitizer replacement? Any instruction guides?

I looked on youtube but no one actually does it, they just comment on how it could be done.

All help is appreciated.

I bought the Desire HD backing to replace the AT&T one and it looks sooo much better.

I'm usually comfortable disassembling phones because I used to replace blackberry screens all the time but the Inspire makes disassembling look like dissecting human organs @_@ lol I'm sorry...was that too much?

Hey there,

I was prodding around the Android Market today and I noticed that some fun tools I once was able to use are now gone. Stuff like SMS bombers , free emulators, and rom grabbers. Truth be told I only wanted to use the SMS bomber because my girlfriend was complaining about 6 people texting her all at the same time, and because I am just such a wonderful lover I wanted to add to the chaos :D!

So is Android cracking down on more "Elicite" materials or are the devs pulling out or am I just rather dumb and not keeping up with current lingo to search/ find stuff like that?
