I shouldn't have thought any is reserved is it? It just boots a kind of vm within android I think that runs a small linux build. It works very well anyway. Can watch bbc iplayer (flash) full screen via hdmi with it. Not had any ram issues. What you going to run on your phone that eats up 512mb ram anyway?

BTW mine reads as 837632k ram total so 512mb isn't reserved.

I picked up my Atrix yesterday, slightly overwhelmed - so much to look at!

Just one thing, I added all of my social accounts in which it seemed to populate my contact list? Is there a way to disable that?! I can only switch it to filter contacts by certain network :S
[Atrix 4G General] Foka002:
I have and it works BUT on 2.3. ONLY
[Atrix 4G General] Jibraldor:
Thanks for the reply, FOKA.

I only just did it because i could not live with the idea of only having 71 mb or RAM and i love it so far (except for the wallpapers which are extremely slow). I have to root it yet but i need to get some sleep now so. Goodnight and sweet dreams to all of you.

P.S. In case some of you are worried about wifi issue(i was). I am having none so far.

Hello chaps

I've tried flashing the IHOP_Bell.sbf. but RSDLite just keeps saying "Unable to retrieve header". Has anyone else had issues with using RSDLite?

random ringing loop

Hi guys

So I've been running 45.0.7.MB860.Orange.en.FR (Gingerbread 2.3.4) for the last 24 hours and have noticed one odd issue. It's only happened twice...the phone rings (very loudly) for ever until I reset it. There is no incoming call, you can even make a call whilst it's doing it, the ringing sound just becomes quiet and keeps on going.

Odd issue. Everything else seems ok so far.

Orange UK / Moto stock boot.img?

hi all

I've flashed my UK Orange Atrix with the "stock 2.3.4" rom, but now also have the USA AT&T boot logo "rethink possible"

Can someone point me/send me a link to a stock moto 2.3.4 boot.img

I've just got the webtop working been trying for quite awhile so a massive thanks.

Using my 32 inch TV Images on webpages look blurry and BBC iplayer HD doesn't work it shows one frame every 10-15 seconds. What are your findings?

Jonnym
[Atrix 4G General] dom_b:
Iplayer was perfect on mine. I'm running stock orange rom except root and webtop hack. 720p on my 37in.

That was with sd stuff. Didn't realise there was hd footage but don't expect it to play well on your phone. H.264 is processor intensive and flash is slow and I doubt it can use the tegra for hardware decoding.
[Atrix 4G General] Jonnym:
Ive got about the same as you stock apart from rooted and webtop hack.

Yes standard iplayer is OK but almost unwatchable for me on the big screen. I guess because the entertainment centre plays HD well I expected the webtop to as well. Try it on TopGear thats got an HD option.

I'm going to look at options for unlocking more power from the webtop so I can run more software and download the updated flash player as that may help. I'm also going to try changing the useragent to be an ipad that way it will be html5 rather than flash.

Will feed back later

Jonnym
[Atrix 4G General] dom_b:
I'm using flash 10.3 and full screen iplayer is spot on.

Not sure why yours is so slow tbh.

Just tried hd and yes its slow but sd is great. Is yours slow on the device as well? Should be the same. Try it in dolphin with user agent set as dedktop and let us know.
[Atrix 4G General] Jonnym:
I tried the HD on different useragents using firefox and dolphin but it didnt work. Trying the Ipad/iphone settings the video wouldn't launch.

The Standard is actually OK...I was sitting too close to the TV before:o. But it does often go pixelated, which I don't get on the PC or laptop. The quality of the HD looks amazing, all be it in 10-15 second freeze frames due to the lag, so I will keep looking for a solution.

I think the answer will be downloading the programmes first.

Jonnym
[Atrix 4G General] dom_b:
I thought you were just doing it as a test. I don't see the point in actually watching it via your phone but there you go lol. If you've got a laptop near your tv use that?
[Atrix 4G General] Jonnym:
Theres no HDMI from the laptop as it quite old, its also in use most evenings while watching the TV. I'm buying a pc to use as an HD PVR at home but as I work away alot I would like to be able to use the phone to catch up on TV using the HDMI cable.

I see many applications for it. Each to his own. I'm going to try the [MOD] Full Linux (Debian) inside WebTop when the official release of gingerbread comes out. this may help the process as I can install more appropriate software.

Please HELP.... :(

:confused:

Hi everyone...

I have a Orange UK Device... and flashed the Gingerbread 2.3.4

I flashed the following

boot.img

radio.img

system.img

recovery.img

webtop.img

I now have the AT&T stock "rethink possible" boot logo..and of course, the RAM problem.

I have tried to flash the Orange FR flash, but all this does is cause the bootup to cycle...and stay screwed.

I have two paths I need to take...

the 2 options...

1) Put the phone back to stock Orange UK 2.2.2 Froyo

2) Put a fix/Orange FR rom on this to make it work

Wayyyyyy to much AT&T / US related posts...that just confuse.

So.. to elaborate...

Option 1

a) remove all the crap...and flash all parts back

boot.img

radio.img

system.img

recovery.img

webtop.img

Option 2

I would just like to get his thing to

a) the Motorola bootup sequence..

b) 2.3.4 (as vanila/OEM as possible even with the MotoBlur bloating)

c) rooted

d) webtop that can install whatever is required

Anyone... please help on this.

Sorry cant help singh as just got phone,

Just a heads up to all uk atrix peeps bought my atrix (orange) yesterday and unlocked it in under 10 mins for 9 pound from mobi freedom.Most impressed.Also got my phone from my local cex for 285 thats a cracking price for this hardware and tempted me to trade up from my desire s so far I am delighted:D
[Atrix 4G General] arii1986:
Well got my Atrix a week ago and have to say its brilliant, eclipsing both my two previous phones (the Arc and Galaxy S 2)

But i was feeling a little bereft by the lack of gingerbread, which was only exasperated when our american counterparts got some 2.3 goodness.

I rang orange and in oliver twist fashion, asked when my atrix was getting gingerbreaded (i used those words, thankfully she knew what i meant)

She told me orange atrix was getting gingerbread... mid september :(
[Atrix 4G General] Bert.C:
I'm not saying I'm right or that your doing it wrong but when you flashed the Orange FR did you do the fastboot method?

And if you did did you make sure you did this:.

Meh not pleased with having to wade knee deep through all these at and t posts guides etc to find anything of use to us uk peeps.:confused:

anyway I was wondering if there is any rom out there that is unbranded?Or a way to debrand the orange (sim unlocked) uk I have just bought without fooking up the bootloader?Just have phone and well pleased,checked to see if the community was active it was but slowly dawning that a lot of it is irrelevant and/or not correct for our phones.Oh and whats with all the forum topics having the sub heading "discussion about the at & t atrix 4g".:mad: lol
[Atrix 4G General] Bert.C:
I agree. If things arent compatible between the AT&T and others i.e. international then maybe have different sub forums for each so us orange chappies can find what we need.

Or even just a nice thread that gets continuously updated just for us orange users?

Just a thought.
[Atrix 4G General] Bert.C:
Im now an official owner now too :) didnt get hit too badlt with Orange apps either. Just your account, wednesdays and maps. Just need to root and delete but will give it a few days first.

Can i ask whats the connected music app all about? Dont we get a standard stand alone music app like other android builds?
[Atrix 4G General] Foka002:
Unlock your bootloader and you will be able to try any rom. The only extra bit that you will need to do after applying New Rom is to install kernel designed for international users (like faux's kernel) Good luck.

Sent from Motorola Atrix
[Atrix 4G General] Bert.C:
So its just the kernel's that aren't compatible between AT&T and international devices? Do we have to flash the kernel after each rom or is it like a radio and just keeps itself to itslef unless we want to update it?
[Atrix 4G General] Foka002:
The only reason for installing kernel is just to get back our full RAM. Don't know why but after unlocking bootloader international users lost around 600MB RAM. So every time you install new rom you will see only 300MB RAM instead of 960MB. The Rom will work fine, maybe a little bit slower. If you then install dedicated kernel you will be all set to get the most of the rom ;-) I'm sure in the future someone will find permanent fix for the RAM.

i guess this is like the uk atrix post, so i hope if any experience the same problem as i do can give me some advice.

Is my Atrix Orange Branded or Sim-Free?

Hi. I have just received my Motorola Atrix which has the same system information as T39andcounting. My purchase was from ebay and the seller assured me that the phone is definitely sim-free. It certain came unlocked and appears brand new. There is no Orange boot-up logo and no Orange logo on the device. There are just a few apps in the apps drawer that are Orange related. Is the seller correct in telling me that the device is sim-free? Many thanks in anticipation of a response.
[Atrix 4G General] T39andcounting:
The only way that I know of to test this would be to put a SIM from a non-Orange network in the SIM slot and see if the phone works. If it does, then it's network unlocked. If it doesn't, then it's probably still locked.
[Atrix 4G General] King_MSD:

hmm you should just be able to flash the custom bootloader (pudding) and then custom recovery and do whatever you want, cant see any reason it should work, obviously most of us were on froyo when we flashed the bootloader but im 99% sure it should work fine regardless, check out the pudding thread in dev forum to see if theres any clarification.

At the mo i am running stock,rooted,unlocked orange one (check freedom mobile on ebay 12 pound for the code turn around about 2 days.) the rom in the phone looks more of a standard rom or unbranded one with just the orange apps added (dont take long to do that i think) so if you could get hold of the 4.1.3.1 rom and then add the apps and edit the version ( build props file or something like that) you should be ok to send it back if need be,there is a copy of the right radio rom around as well.

I've got one, but I can't use it because it has to be returned because the web order it's associated with was cancelled after they sent me out a phone without a SIM and refused to send a SIM out separately because their systems couldn't handle doing that (wtf?).

I wound up getting an Atrix in store last Thursday but they won't send me those accessories until I send the other ones back and they seem to be holding off on sending me a jiffy bag to return the cancelled web order items in..

To say I've had a frustrating 1 1/2 weeks would be putting it mildly..

That sucks codemonkey!

I'm guessing, that you can mirror through hdmi, and can have webtop through hdmi, but would still need something to interface with it, like a mouse, keyboard, or phone screen, maybe a kinetic ;)

Could put the £80 towards lapdock ;)

[Atrix 4G General] CodeMonkey:
The shop accessories are coming for £50, but I've had an £80 credit applied to my account to compensate for multiple screw ups by Orange. Whether they ever materialise is a different matter..

I'll be emailing the Orange Chief Exec. once the dust settles to put him in the picture about the quality of customer service I've had for the last 10 days. At least the store manager's pretty decent, so I'm reasonably hopeful I'll have it all sorted over the next 10 days or so. Gotta ring returns again tomorrow morning to arrange to special delivery the items back (I'm tired of waiting for the jiffy bags that they obviously haven't sent).
[Atrix 4G General] lonegunman:
I got the free stuff when I got mine from the shop.
[Atrix 4G General] T39andcounting:
The free accessories works in the shop as long as it's an existing Orange customer upgrade during May. Had a card though the door yesterday from a courier which I suspect might be the work and play kit as I haven't ordered anything else.

Hi Guys,

Could any of you confirm whether the FM radio listed as part of the Atrix specification on the Orange website is actually present and works? After reading through a few threads on the atrix, it appears that in the US, the FM radio does not function.

Many thanks,
[Atrix 4G General] T39andcounting:
There's no way (app) to access the FM radio on mine, and I haven't heard of anyone else getting it working. Hopefully it shows that Orange/Motorola plan to release an update soon with this added functionality, maybe in Gingerbread?

I'm tempted to complain to Orange, but I think I've had the phone for too long and like it too much now to bother with that. Would be interested to hear if any other Orange Atrix owners have complained to Orange.
[Atrix 4G General] Professor_K:
Many thanks for that T39, it's a bit naughty (at the least) for Orange to be specifiying FM radio in the spec on the website when the product is not capable of doing so out of the box. I know FM radio is probably a very minor function for most people on a phone but I've become used to it with the previous phones I have had - currently deciding between Atrix and SGS 2 coming from a Touch HD!
