Thank you, i will def study and only do it then when i am comfortable that i have it down. I cant afford any mistakes. Bking_soda, mind if i pm you with question when that time comes. Having done 4 tbolts you are obviously an expert
[Thunderbolt General] avatar120:
Definitly worth learning to do yourself, keep in mind there will be mistakes as you go forward, yes it is possible to brick your phone but very hard to a do. Read read read and when you think you have it figured out read some more. The more you do yourself the more you'll understand when you do get a bad flash what you need to do. Dont worry It can almost always be recovered. And most of the smart people in these forums will help and not flame you for asking for it.:D
[Thunderbolt General] jaben2:
Just like everyone else says, just read up on it, then do it yourself. It isn't hard just follow directions, and ask questions if you run into problems.

You will definitely want to know how to do it, in-case you want to un root, or flash other roms.
[Thunderbolt General] docabe:
rooting services

HAHAHAHA. Good one mate!
[Thunderbolt General] hairydawg75:
As long as you can follow directions exactly, you will likely have zero problems. The experience with ADB will help you in the future also. And if you feel the need donate a few bucks to the awesome devs on here who make things simple for us normal folk.
[Thunderbolt General] refthemc:
I actually set up a craigslist ad over winterbreak to make some extra cash while I wasn't in school. It was quite an experience, I met all kinds of cool people just getting into android, and I also heard all kinds of storys about the other "Craigslist Rooters" and how they were weird and sketchy. Come to find out that most of them used 1 clicked apps and had no clue what ADB was. I would be careful of them, chances are you arent gonna meet another XDA user like myself lol

Hope this helps

The thunderbolt is my first android phone and i had no problem rooting it the other day.. if you can follow a video to set up adb, read and copy and paste you can root.
[Thunderbolt General] ddarvish:
Indeed... Maybe i was to harsh but seriously think about it. What if your phone crashed or you needed to unroot. If you would read the instructions it isn't hard at all.

i posted on craigslist offering to root peoples phone and got hit up alot, charging $20-$30 a person. got a couple of emails actually
[Thunderbolt General] :
I read an article fairly recently where a Harvard (I think Harvard..I know Ivy League) student was jailbreaking Iphones through Craigs list and made somewhere in the neighborhood of 50k in a year...a bit off top but a tangent nonetheless.

I am all for the more I control the better. Have confidence in yourself, read through the instructions, read them again, and read them once more. Search and post questions. Just because you want to root doesn't mean you have to do it that day. I waited about a year to root my first phone...reading through forums, watching all the different things going down...just trying to absorb what I can...

Hi,

Am an android user. However, a friend of mine owns a samsung focus. Since, her laptop is broken, is there's any way she can have video calls or IMs with me?

Doesn't WinMo have free IM or video call apps?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vick1w:
Hi ,

I have Bell Atrix, unlocked, I flashed the Franch SBF 2.1.1, and all worked well, EXCEPT..

the phone is always roaming, I cannot get data unless I check the Data roaming, there is a little (r) next to my signal all the time..

and I don't know how to fix it..I checked Build.prop, to see if there any setting there.. but I dont know which and what to look for..

my question is: is there a way or a settings that I can change to get rid of the raoaming issue.

as I said my Atrix is BELL and I am with fido.. :mad:
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NFHimself:
You need the apn settings for fido, and create an access name under wireless settings - network settings -access point names.

Bell Atrix Roaming after FR 2.1.1

I did put the APN for Fido, unless I turn on the roaming data, it does not connect.. also now one seems to explain the (R) next to the signal.. why the Bell Atrix started to show me that its roaming after flashing with FR 2.1.1 sbf.. in on Montreal with FIDO and fido sim in my Atrix..

that is my real question.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NFHimself:
Hi,

There are two numbers, MCC, and MNC in the APN, the phone will show roaming if what the network reports is different than what is setup.

MCC (mobile country code) for Canada is 302, you should have that.

MNC (mobile network code) for Fido is 370, if your APN isn't using that then you will be roaming.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Network_Code

The French sbf may not have the canada codes in it's apns.conf, see attached file from the Bell stock firmware, you can replace /etc/apns.conf with that, then go to access point names and reset to default.

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GibMcFragger:
I'll take a look in my apns.conf but it must have the Canada codes as I have been running the french sbf since it was leaked on my Bell version (on Bell) and never had it roam. I just had to add the Bell apn (obviously) and it worked fine.

I do have a question for you though, since you seem to know a lot about these phones, etc. On my last phone (Samsung Galaxy S), there was a secret menu code (like *#*#4636#*#*) that would take you to the network band settings. From there you could not only see what band the phone was running on, but you could SET what bands were active. Is there anything like that on the Atrix? I am curious if the modem in these non Bell sbf's like Telstra/french sbf access the 850MHz band or not.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NFHimself:
Hi,

*#*#4636#*#* is the only one I know about. You can set GSM vs GSM only etc, that would be where you'd change bands.

The codes would only be launching an android app/service somewhere, i tried a hex edit and file search of apps, couldn't find it.

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GibMcFragger:
Thanks for looking. I wasn't sure if you could even manually set anything other then selecting "USA Bands" in 4636. It's no big deal, i'm just used to being able to go in and manually select bands on my previous SGS. :)

My signal is fine, it was just for curiosities sake.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vick1w:
HI NF

I check my APN. here are the values

Name: FIDO

APN: Internet.fido.ca

USERNAME:Fido

PWD:FIDO

*****

MCC:302

MNC: 370

Those are the only values I have..

this is really strange.. according to the above, I should not be roaming.. but something changed in my phone when I first flashed the French SBF.. and is shows roaming after that flash..

this is really strange..

UPDATE: another problem : when I choose Setting->call Setting->Operator Selector, I notived two things.

the Check box next to Select Automatically is not there, I think it was there when I was on Bell Stock,

next when I choose .. Search Networks.. it searched for long time and phone stops responding, I have to Turn off .

also, when I choose Advanced Setting the Call waiting is greyed out, when I click on Caller ID I get Invalid SIM Error.. again I have to reboot to get the phone working again..
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vick1w:
the info I have after *#*# 4636 ...

Nieigbouring CID shows as UNKNOWN..

Roaming: Roaming

NETWORK TYPE:UMTS

not sure if this will you a clue..
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NFHimself:
Hi,

Sounds like it might be an issue with the radio itself, or it could be that you are just roaming, perhaps a network outage. I would try flashing the telstra sbf, see if you get the same problem. If we had a Bell sbf would could revert back to the stock radio, so we have two options, 1.87 or 1.92. You could try just flashing the radio to see.

In my settings, I have it set to GSM (auto), nothing special there. In network settings, I have it set to automatic, under operator selection, auto is selected. I don't have roaming issues myself with either firmware, but I am not using my phone in your area. Could just be a network update in my area from being in the same boat.

Cheers!

[General Questions and Answers] IWR:
Looking for some info on the AudioPara3.csv file, or any other way to balance the headphone and speaker levels. Presently the headphone (3.5mm jack) level is about 20dB less than the speaker/earpiece level, which means you have to constantly readjust volume when changing between music and telephone use. That, and the 3.5mm jack output is too low to feed an amplifier.

Interestingly, if you put the 3.5 jack in quickly, you find that you have loud headphone output (about the same subjective loudness as the speaker) for about half a second even with the jack fully home. Then it loses volume. So, it can't be the jack-socket switch that's doing this, it must be something in the software.

3. See on top left corner of the screen, confirm if it is PVT-4 on the screen.

If it is, most likely you have erase size 40000. This can be further confirm by issuing command in terminal 'cat /proc/mtd'.

But if you don't know how, forget about it.

Anyway...if it is pvt-4, make sure to you use amon-ra recovery instead of clockwork.
