seems like a very fine app,

But I can't make my command to work.

Do you know how to use this software and explain me please?

I only want to play music (my playlist is already on), when the car home app is turned on (it will pop on automatically when I'm in car driving).
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubykon:
I made it work with the default music app. To set up the profile follow these steps;

1. Select NEW and name your profile

2. Select 'application' in the context menu

3. Select 'car panel' and click DONE

4. Select 'New task +' in the task selection box

5. Name your task

6. Click + sign > select 'audio' > select 'media volume' > move 'level' slider to desired volume > select DONE

7. Againg Click + sign > select 'app' > select 'load app' > select 'Music' > select DONE (you could also select PowerAMP here but I didn't test this)

8. Again click + sign > select 'Media' > select 'Media control' > select 'Toggle Pause' in the 'cmd' droplist > select DONE (simulate media button has to be checked)

9. In 'task edit' window click DONE

10. Make sure your profile is loaded; green V next to profile (uppper right corner) and green ON in the bottom right corner

11. enjoy your tasker profile!

Optional

12. Hit the thanks button under my post:)

hi, i found this case: http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/bd4-hkr4ssn2.htm

any 1 knows if it is 2 bulky? and will it slide from pocket good?

what the difference between this case above and this case lower

http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/csk3ssn2-bk.htm

thx all helpers!
[Nexus S Accessories] genexxa72:
I've been using the Convert for the last week and I can tell you that it's a bit bulky for a pocket.

The difference between the Convert and the Active is pretty simple. The Convert is a Surface + Active (with some mods like the camera lens cover). So you have 3 layers of proection (the Surface case, the silicone and the skeleton plastic)

If you'r searching for something Rugged style go with the Convert... otherwise go for the Surface or the Active. I have the Convert holster that came with the Convert package but I'm gonna buy the Surface holster for the everyday use because I found the Convert little too bulky for me.
[Nexus S Accessories] yaronyud:
you happend to know if active is also 2 bulky for pocket?
[Nexus S Accessories] genexxa72:
It's hard to say for me... but when I remove the extra protection and use the Surface only, the size is just perfect for me. I would say that the Active should be a little bigger than the surface but fine for a pocket.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Budske:
There is a thread like this one on the forum of the Samsung Galaxy s 2 but almost all the guys talk about the SGS2 and i want it to share it here, to all the Atrix ppl.

The original thread is here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1083964

now... to the topic, i own the motorola atrix and i think its a great device, fast and fun, i can do whatever i want, but i dont like some stuff, like the wake up lag (i think it can be fixed only unmounting the SD card), the fact that it reboot randomly and the locked bootloader, now, i knoe that there r some guys trying to unlock it and i think someone posted a way to flash full roms but didnt understud how to do it.

Now i can get the SGS2 really cheap, but i havent seen it on the street to test it or anything, dont know the problems that it have and dont know which phone will be better running the same rom (lets say CM7).

so i have that problem, what do you think?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:
I think you are not asking how we like the MB860/Atrix as your title suggests, but rather asking us if you should buy the SGS2!

That's honestly what I think after reading your post!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WiredPirate:
If you are looking for justification of owning both devices, I say do it! My friends ask me why I need more than one phone and I laugh at them. My reply is always, "Why not?". Then I proceed to show the differences between devices, pros and cons of each. Its just fun, and a hobby. Is that what you were fishing for?

Side note: NO more random reboots for me! Ever since I uninstalled the horrible horrible LP+, I haven't seen a reboot (or graphical shell crash, whichever it is) in 10+ days. Ditch the LauncherPro! It sucks on the Atrix! :( Maybe I should find more threads and inform them of my experience.?.

Edit: Ive also never experienced wake up lag. Ever.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mowassasin:
I think it's quite good

The only gripe is the locked bootloader, so there hasn't been an explosion of kernels and roms for it, which is a shame

I do like to customise my stuff to suit my needs

I've also played with a i9100, and it is very nice, and I would be torn between the two

The fingerprint reader I use all the time and probably couldn't do without it once I've had it.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viamonte:
Its a very powerful device, and the Full Ubuntu customization makes it so it can replace netbooks for a lot of people. Since I like almost everything in it, lets say what I dont:

Its looks.

It appears ordinary. TOO Ordinary. I'm on the subway, holding a phone more powerful than all others in the train combined, but if anyone looks at it, it just screams "mid-end".

Its back cover.

It's extremelly slippery. Of all the phones I've owned in 8 years, this one I let slip and fall to the floor more times in two months than any other during the one year I've owned each. That's about 20 falls now and counting.

And, of course, the locked bootloarder.

Motoblur isn't as bad to me as most others, as I like the contacts integration and the phone location without the need to download third party apps. But unlocking the webtop was a MAJOR headache for someone who knew NOTHING of Linux.

Now, on comparison, the SG2 has a bigger screen, a better contrast, a more powerful core, and a different look that may appeal to many people. However, it doesnt have the Lapdock, which can matter a lot or absolutely nothing, depending on what you think of it. And it has a different UI which you may like better or not. Also, It's pixel density is much lower.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WiredPirate:
There is a comparison thread here.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NibblerWeather:
I have a love hate relationship with it. Its my first android. I gave my i4 to my wife. I love the size/form factor. Battery, call quality, web surfing are good. I think the gps, combined with cardock and vlingo in car is superb.

Id give the screen an A-

Text and sites look pretty good, but pixelation is evident on homescreen wallpapers and widgets. The 5mp camera blows. The video recording is great IF you have good lighting.

I have been able to achieve 7.19 mb down in certain parts of houston. Other places are random 3g.

Pretty pissed moto hasn't released GB.

Accessories are fatally overpriced.

I've played with a lapdock. Great build quality, crappy performance. Webtop mod on tv is cool, but gimicky.

Biggest gripe though is my battery cover creaks a lot. I had to put tapw on the inside to make it feel solid and sound quiet.

However through updates/future mods/and using a case all of my complaints are easily erased. The atrix was released way too early. Maybe att pushed moto. If the phone had landed in late July with everything working and updated, I think it would have had the launch it deserves.

Not sure it will survive the HTC holiday and Lead. And the Droid Bionic and some new sprint phone appear to be atrix rev 2 with everything good to go at launch.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MdX MaxX:
I love my Atrix. Yes, it's buggy at times, but it doesn't give me a fraction of the frustration that my old iPhone gave me.

Once I get to college, I'll be right in Atlanta's HSPA+ coverage area, so I'll expect some awesome data speeds there. We should have Gingerbread by then as well.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevendeb25:
i like the atrix, its a challenge at the moment with us having 2nd init and trying to make custom roms :D keeps me entertain for hours
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ekerbuddyeker:
I owned both the Atrix and SGS2. I kept the Atrix. SGS2 was a dissappointment. Actually im not sure why people make such a fuss about it. Ateix has better sound, better sprakerphone, better resolutipn etc. Worst part is the battery lfe on SGS2 . Absolutely awful. Often lasted less than 6 hours. Sure its powerful but what's the point id you can't use that power or have tobfreeze most of the Apps in order to get through the day. I just didn't feel I could rely on it.

Atrix isn't perfect (yet). But its overall combination is great.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jotokun:
I love my Atrix. The only flaws with it are the bootloader (which has been mostly worked around thanks to 2nd init, now we just wait for someone to develop a CM7 rom for it) and the fact that the screen cant show gradients well. The battery life is outstanding, text is crisp, nothing slows it down (...except live wallpapers, but I suspect Motoblur at work there, so moot point after roms) and the call quality is great.

As for the rebooting, its either something you installed or you got a faulty device and need to exchange it.

I cant say anything about the Galaxy S, but there's nothing I've seen that would justify changing phones from the Atrix.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sammm:
To me is love and hate on the Atrix 4G. I got so used to running multi-OS on a custom rom HTC HD2. Kinda missing the HTC Sense on both Android and WinMo.

Here is what I do love about the Atrix:

* Better Screen Res.

* Dual Core CPU

* Fingerprint Reader

* HDMI output

* Webtop function

What I hated on the Atrix + Motorola

* No International Warrenty

* Lockdown of Bootloader

* Poor or no language display support within Webtop

* Overly expensive hardwares

Overall, The Atrix is a pretty slick device only If you don't use lot of interactive widget on the screen. I might just keep it for a little more time untill I can find a NextG version of HTC Sensation aka Pyramid.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimmer411:
I hate my atrix. One min its fast and responsive, the next its like running windows 95 on a 486 with 24mb of ram. My data connection randomly times out and the screen is crap.

I want to like this phone, especially after seeing 2.3 on the X and how responsive it is but I have a feeling im going to get let down. Im tired of waiting endlessly for the next version of android that's supposed to magically make everything better, or hope the community will pick up the slack.

I just hope I can convince my wife to give up her pink pantech dumbphone for the atrix so I can get an iphone 5 when its released.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ekerbuddyeker:
I miss winmo sense on the hd2 as well! I thought it was the best version of sense. I didn't have to do anything to it except mYbe one mid to add extra icons tobthe home screen. I ovetflashed my hd2 and eventually the battery points broke don removing ; replacing batteries so often when flashing! So I can't even get it to work anymite just to play with it to see how it used to look. :(

Anyone out there figured out how to Make WINMO sense for android? :)

(Just looked back at my spelling. Man the Atrix keyboard is awful!)

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msd24200:
wow, really? That's my launcher of choice and my atrix has NOT ONCE did a random reboot. It feels faster with launcher pro plus than with any other launcher.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jason.hamilton:
I mostly like the atrix. Only have a few issues with mine. The hard lock button wears out really quick. Mine has pretty much lost all of its spring. I dont know if its the phone or the market, but google market wont connect intermittently. For "4g" it really feels like 3g. The form factor is boring. Lastly the locked bootloader.

I was actually looking at the xperia arc. That thing looks slick. Not dual core but honestly til the OS is optimized for dual cores, its not that important. My nexus one is as fast if not faster then my atrix. i really like how SE altered the UI.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Budske:
i doo love my atrix, its a great phone and i think ill keep it until gingerbread and see how it works, but as soon as Entel (my carrier) get stock on the SGS2 ill buy it cos it will cost me like $60 and i can sell it for like $800 if it is unlocked for all companies

maybe there i will test it to see how it works :P

the only problem i have with the atrix is the locked bootloader, and the wake up lag, nothing more, games, apps, and all the stuff run smooth as butter :P
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J-man67:
I love mine. I bought it March 3rd and I have yet to put it down. I love tinkering and changing things. Yes, the bootloader is locked, but devs are working on ways around that as I type. I am running Gingerblur 4.5 and never have/had any of the issues you describe. My buddy has the SGII that he paid like 800 for. Got it from the UK. I played with it...and I wasn't too impressed. It was right out of the box and he has since changed a lot. Atrix feels just right to me. As soon as we can bypass BL and GB is officially OTA'd it will get even better.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Budske:
ok... now i have the SGS2, but dont know what to do >.<, sell the atrix or the SGS2 (i need money).

both are great phones, and i really dont know what to do... >.<

If you "need" money, sell them both and be amazed that you can live without a dual core phone.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrCooper2012:
I'm not sure if that would have been caused by Launcher Pro. I mean I guess it could, but it seems like we would have heard more people with the same problem. I have been using Launcher Pro for about 2 months now, and I have never had a single reboot, or really any problem with the launcher for that matter.

Anyway, I guess the point would be to see if that actually is the problem before you tell people that something is bad. After using/trying GO Launcher, Launcher 7, and SPB Shell, I have found Launcher Pro to be the best.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Budske:
i use ADW Launcher :P

anyways, what should i do with both phones?? :S

What i like on the SGS2:

- Unlocked Bootloader (oficial CM7 coming)

- Camera

- the front button

What i dont like:

- i feel like im going to break it

- No Tegra

What i like on the Atrix:

- Well made and nice looking

- the screen is great

- Tegra 2

- it have a lot of potential

What i dont like:

- the potential is f$%& by the locked bootloader

- the power/wake up button

- camera

- Motoblur

- Random reboots

i know that a lot of things can be fixed, and im not a big gamer, but the tegra2 optimized games looks great, and the biggest advantage of the SGS2 is the unlocked bootloader
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ViperFUD:
Ok.

My phone apparently hates me ... but I can't figure out where the hell I'm going wrong.

I had 1.57 on my phone, rooted. I did the OTA update to 1.83. Then I ran Gingerbreak. After rooting, I put Greyblur on my phone, so I thought I had root access since SystemRestore ran.

I now have root, theoretically ... but I can't see half the files that I used to be able to (when I mount /system as r/w I can't write to it ...). [edit]Also, I can't "adb shell mount" ... I can push/pull files from the /system directory, but I can't edit them directly either through RootExplorer or "adb shell; $su" etc.[/edit]

I can't see user data in my files; it looks like TitaniumBackup can, since it's creating backup files, but I don't trust that it's actually getting all my user data.

I want to redo my phone from scratch, but I'm worried I won't be able to actually save all my user data/databases/etc from programs ... things that say they save to the sdcard on this seem to save to /mnt/sdcard on the Atrix (not sdcard-ext)... which is actually the internal memory of the phone, not the removable sdcard (AFAICT).

Any chance anyone can help with this? Or do I have to just try to back up what I can, reflash to 1.26, root, "beforeupdate", update to 1.57, "after update", 1.83, gingerbreak, and hope for the best?

Any help is appreciated. Very valuable help will be rewarded with beer donations, etc.

Thanks in advance.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WiredPirate:
This question is being asked allot lately. You kind of answered it yourself in a literal way: As far as your phone is concerned, you are transferring the files to sd. Your not using the apps2extsd app (because it doesn't exist afaik). I know thats only one part of your question, hope you get the answers you need.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ViperFUD:
Right ... and the point of this is that if I remove my (physical) SD Card to preserve my files, it won't actually do anything because it's the INTERNAL memory that has my files/databases/etc.

Again, there's a bounty on solving this problem for me ... hopefully people look at this thread :D
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WiredPirate:
I think you missed the point. Apps2sd is not to "preserve" anything, but for phones lacking enough memory to install the apps users want. We are lucky with the Atrix. We will probably never fill it up to the point we cant install anymore apps, but other phones have that problem. This is the purpose of apps2sd. If you want preservation use TiBU. Again I know this was only part of your question and wish you luck in finding the solutions you need.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ViperFUD:
Yeah, I have/use TiBU (PRO) ... what I am not sure of is:

1. If I flash the 1.26 sbf to my phone, will the TiBU backups get deleted from my internal memory? Or do I need to save them to my PC first (will probably do this anyway).

2. If I later reinstall from my TiBU backups, will all my saved games, program databases, etc, also be imported back onto the phone?

3. Are there other files that I need that I'd want to back up, but I won't be able to because I don't really have root?

4. How can I be certain that I actually have root access, and not some half-assed root access that Moto/ATT let me have while hiding full system access?

5. Why can I no longer mount my /system folder as r/w, along with not being able to see /system/data?

That's all, I think.

Thanks.

Best,

Viper
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ririal:
Back them up to your PC. SBF shouldn't clear your external/internal SD card, but most will wipe /data/ partition which contains all of the app settings and data.

They should be, yes.

Anything you can backup, you should. I'm not sure what you mean by you "don't really have root." Check for Superuser in your app drawer. If it's not there, install it. Gingerbreak/Gingerblur delete a LOT of stuff when you use them. I personally avoid them for this very reason.

There's no such thing as "half-assed root access." You either have it, or you don't. Make sure the su binary is in /system/bin and that you have Superuser.apk installed and listed in your app drawer.

What error messages is it giving you when you try?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ViperFUD:
1. I planned to :D

2. That's what I thought, but I wasn't sure.

3. I have Superuser, and TiBU and RootEx both think they have root.

4. See #3; however, I couldn't do some stuff I wanted to (like edit /system/etc/hosts. Also, i figured out why i couldn't find "/system/data/" ... because I'm an idiot and i should've been looking for /data/system/ !)

5. Well, now it's working. Very Strange. RootEx force closed on me, and when it reopened it's now working.

WTF man.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ririal:
Sometimes TiBu and RootExplorer need to be restarted for root to take place. I'd say at this point (If you haven't already.), give your phone a reboot. That might smooth any other issues out.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ViperFUD:
Thanks man.

I sent you a beer :D

I'm thinking about trying GladAtrix (ZOMG you made that) instead of GreyBlur, but I wanted to make sure I wouldn't lose all my **** when I flashed back to 1.8.3.

Best,

Viper
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ririal:
Look for the service SBF for 1.83. There's two versions, one that wipes /data and one that doesn't. If you use the one that doesn't (I have SEVERAL times), you should be good to go.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ViperFUD:
Ririal,

Sorry to bug you again, but is this the SBF you are using? It was the only 1.8.3 sbf I could find ....

Hi guys, :D

Well basically, I've been a massive idiot and somehow my HTC Desire is now non-responsive. :o I am running the Oxygen rom from a nandroid backup that I had done previously but now i am unable to access recovery at all. The phone does power on. I do the usual power + back button hold to get into the bootloader then recovery and do the usual ./recovery-mac.sh command in terminal but all I get in response is this now:

mac:~ Dan$ ./recovery-mac.sh

Pushing required files to device...

error: device not found

error: device not found

mac:~ Dan$ error: device not found

I can access the MicroSD card through a computer but the phone won't recognize there is one. WiFi works (but can't download anything from market), radio doesn't as no signal and of course 3G is out of the question.

Is there a solution to my problem?!

From a person in dying need. :o

Since trying to work this out I have reformatted the microSD card and replaced its contents afterwards, still to no avail.
