Thanks!

As I said, Im new to Android so I do not really know that much about it yet.

I have not rooted the device yet but I have flashed with the following files : [Link removed]

android_2.2_for_zte_light-read_1st.rar - Flashprogram

V9_GENERICV1.0.0B03.rar - Files to flash on to the device

Sales_MultiDL_MSM7227_patched.zip - somekind of patch

1. I Supose that the official 2.2 firmware will be more adapted to my device then this flash is? Or will there be no point in going with the official when having this flash in place? Could there by any problems with future updates(ex 2.3) when using this custom firmware?

I have a guid on how to root the device based on the leaked 2.2 V9_GENERICV1.0.0B03 (Android 2.2) rom.

2. Is this a good idéa or is there any problems with this? If this does not work as needed is it possible to go back to an unrooted device? And if so how? Will I have to re-flash the device(re-install everything)?

3. I supose that a rom is the rooting software and there could be many flavour of a rooting software(rom)

Would be grate If your could answer my questions :)

BestRegards

First of all i would like to clear ur misunserstanding u have.. a ROM is not a software used for rooting.. indeed ROM is the OS for your phone.. there are many custom roms available.. u can choose them according to ur need.. and always make sure that u r flashing a rom which is suitable for ur phone..

Rooting is nothing but giving kind of administrative access to u.. so u can delete the protected contents or boltwares from ur phone.. for u to flash any new roms, u should be rooted..
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] SnowJim:
Thanks!

The ROM im using us a custom ROM, the manufacture(ZTE) have not yet released a Android 2.2 ROM for my device yet, this is why I have to use a custom ROM.

Accoring to the author of the guid I followed to flash the custom Android 2.2 ROM to my device, the ROM is not rooted. This seems to be correct because programs that are supose to move apps from the device internal memory to the SD card is not working.

To get this working a parmanent rooting needs to be done according to the author.

If this parmanent rooting is dones I supose that I will be able to use apps that moves other apps to the SD card.

So If I decide to root my device and then turn back again I should simple be able to re-flash the device with the custom Android 2.2 ROM that I used before? Is This correct?

And If the manufacture releases a orginal Anroid 2.2 ROM I will also be able to flash this in to the device, this will however not be possible to root if the manufacture is not releasing the source.

Am I correct?

BestRegards

Picked one of these badboys up this afternoon and was presently suprised to find the following:

1) 16gb sd card instead of the advertised 8

2) It's running 2.3.3 (which is gingerbread?? sorry new to the android scene)

Love it already after 30 minutes...will never use another OS again.

Don't be too sure, that's what I said after getting my first iPhone.

16 gb? is that like normal ?? lol.

lucky you i guess. i picked mine up 2 days back.. just an 8gb card and no gingerbread
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] serizawa626:
what's up guys so i recently rooted my phone and flashed the latest cm7 (7.0.2). i couldn't help but to notice that my auto-rotate does not work on apps. i.e. web browser, txting, etc. It DOES rotate when i slide the keyboard out, but it's stuck on portrait if i don't have the keyboard out. I've tried ticking an unticking various things such as auto-rotate, being able to rotate an additional 180 degrees..nothing seems to make it work. does anyone have a clue of what's wrong?? (f.y.i, i've tried reflashing the rom couple of times and also flashing cm nightly, wiping the cache, wiping data/reset, but still no progress). if anyone has encountered this problem, or might have a solution, that would be great ! it's starting to irritate me..so any help would be much appreciated. thanks for stopping by. :(
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spastic909:
Yeah try a better more stable rom
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] serizawa626:
so i tried flashing a different rom (gingervillain 1.5) like you said..and it's still not working.....any other suggestions? should i unroot and root my phone again? would that cause any harm?:confused:
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dustrho:
This has been happening occasionally on my G2 while running the stock deodexed ROM, and the only way I've known to fix it is to run "fix permissions" in CWM. I've also deleted the cache and dalvik cache as well, just to be safe, and these have fixed the problem for me. I'm not sure if it's related to the ROM or any of the apps I have installed, but I'm getting more & more concerned that it could be that my accelerometer slowly dying. Not sure.

I really hope that helps fix your problem.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] serizawa626:
ok so i tried to do your method, and it still doesnt work...:( i'm kind of bummed because i barely got a replacement on this phone..and its hard to believe that the accelerometer would be dying on mine because i just got it replaced like few weeks ago..i really don't know what the problem is
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leecotton:
Hello all. I see that the pre-install music player does not play WMA files. Does anyone know if it's possible to make the default music player work with WMA, maybe by installing a codec or somesuch? Alternatively, can anyone recommend a tablet-friendly media player app to replace the default?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilentMobius:
Nope, no such thing as installing "codecs" under Android.

Quick search on the market for "wma" shows that poweramp can play wma. Software decode for audio should be pretty easy so there are likely to be a number of 3rd party audio players that can play other formats.

I reccomend XBMC media player. Beta 2 is out and is reasonably stable, and it is easy to install a touch friendly skin. Go to xbmc.org to download.

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] cooljoe226:
if your phone is running cynogen mod you should go and uncheck screen animations.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] nikolaus2007:
neither No Lock nor the deactivation of the animations doesn't work for me.

I'm running on CM7 and want the display to be off without fading to black when I press the lock key.

Thanks for reply.

so far,

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] gravis86:
If you turn the screen-off animation ON, and then go into Spare Parts and change window animations to OFF, screen off will be instant.

Don't ask me why, but it works.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] nikolaus2007:
Thanks. Works Fine. Can be closed :)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Pickx:
Yes, this works but it should be noted that it still causes the usual wake issues when overclocking
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] noodles2224:
The fading is like that, you can't turn that off.. if there's no screen on/off animation.. you will have that little fade. But with no lock, it should be directly to homescreen without unlocking, kinda something you seem to want.. it doesn't have any effects..
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] kozmikkick:
It might be too simple but you can always push the power button and it'll turn the screen off immediately

If you can I recommend waiting for the Android release of VIBER which is a fantastic VOIP App.

Check out the their website and watch for release date.

I expect this will be a fantastic addition to the Android library when it is released later this year. You can sign up for the Android beta right now :D

@Aniramlove -

Please note that Viber does not officially support Xperia X8 yet, and that may be the reason for the problems you are experiencing. Here is the full list of officially supported devices: http://bit.ly/rqbZEw

We are continuously working to adapt Viber to more and more devices, and we hope to attend to the problems with your device soon. We apologize for the inconvenience.

When our upcoming version 2.1.3 is released (hopefully within the next few weeks), please test it and let me know if it solves the problem or not.

Remember that Viber for Android is quite a young app :) More and more options will be included as newer and newer versions are released.

Im sorry but im new to this...what is ota?what do you mean ota to 1.5.7 to ota 1.8.3
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosit1:
OTA is over-the-air (no computer required). What I suggest is a fresh data factory wipe along with flashing of 1.8.3 SBF (or if you want 1.5.7 to OTA). Whatever suits your fancy.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimbush3:
Follow the directions in my previous post to flash your phone back to completely stock software. Once that is done, go to Settings -> About Phone (bottom of the list) -> System Updates. You must be on wifi to download the updates. First, it will download an update to 1.57 (I don't think it goes straight to 1.83). Download and install that update following the prompts. Once that is done, do it again to get the 1.83 update. Now you have a fully up-to-date, and hopefully functioning screen, Motorola Atrix.

Since you are flashing back to stock, I recommend using gladroot to obtain root on the phone. This will avoid the formatting of your internal and external storage that gingerbreak rooting method would require. Gladroot files and instructions here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1016060

Basically these are your steps:

Flash 1.26 SBF

Run gladroot.bat

OTA update to 1.57

run afterupdate.bat

OTA update to 1.83

run afterupdate.bat again

The batch files I referenced are in the gladroot download.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodFoot:
Physical damage would not necessarily appear in the same place all the time. It looks to me like the problem appears when a sufficient number of pixels in one column/row are white, and the white is then streaking into other pixels that shouldn't be white. Could indicate a problem with the display circuitry properly handling the voltages. I'd be surprised if this is not a hardware problem. I guess we'll find out after the OP reflashes the ROM.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimbush3:

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] warpete:
Two things:

I have replaced 4 screens on my girlfriend's Motorola a1200 and 3 years later is still working. Screens go bad AND the internal cable can loosen over time and cause your problem. eBay usually has new screens for under $20.00 and you can Google for instructions on how to do it. It's actually fairly simple and you probably just need to re-seat your current screen cable. I seriously doubt it's anything other than a loose cable or worn out screen.
