First off, i didn't create this, i only tweaked a bit of it for the Atrix. Kudos to Six6Sicks for their initial work here.

Preview:

Download: abyss-bootanimation-atrix_port.zip (3.1M)

INSTALLATION (for those who need it):

copy the file to your phone (i use sshdroid to copy it to my /mnt/sdcard/)

run System Recovery and choose Recovery Mode (make sure power is plugged in)

wait... (could it boot up past the Motorola logo any slower?)

select Install zip from SDCARD

select choose zip from internal sdcard (or just sdcard, your mileage may vary)

scroll down until you find the abyss-bootanimation-atrix_port.zip file

hit your power button to select it

scroll down to Yes - Install abyss-bootanimation-atrix_port.zip and hit your power button to select it.

watch the quick install screen

scroll down to Go Back and hit the power button again.

Reboot system now should be highlighted, hit the power button to reboot.

ENJOY!

as always, YOU are responsible for your phone, no matter how much i suck @ this.

Hey, I have tried many times trying to learn Deodexing and spent a lot of time searching for answers and ways so I can do it myself, but I can't :/ So I was wondering if somebody more skilled at this stuff can Deodex the APK. For some reason I can't upload it but you can find the download here:

[General Questions and Answers] bluearchtop:
Hi Guys I just bought a Spring Evo 4G that has Gingerbread 2.3 and Cyanagen Mod 7.03. Will I be able to activate this w/ Sprint? The seller says it is a clean ESN. Or will I have to restore this (how?) to activate it?

Thanks for the help!!
[General Questions and Answers] Maximilian Mary:
As long as the esn is clean, you should be fine. The things needed to activate a phone on your account are the imei, min, mdn, etc. These are independent of the rom. Since the imei is already in Sprint's system, you might even be able to do it yourself (though perhaps not a good idea if you have the insurance).
[General Questions and Answers] bluearchtop:
I thought so too, although the seller told me I would have to flash to stock rom...
[General Questions and Answers] Maximilian Mary:
Something else just occurred to me. If you take the phone to a Sprint store to activate it, I can imagine the rep being less than enthusiastic about programming a phone with non-standard software. For that matter, I'm not certain that cyanogen includes the programming menu required to edit these codes for activation. I'll update when	I learn more.

Edit: The epst app which does the phone programming is not compatible with cm7, as far as I can tell. So he's right. You will have to revert to stock to activate it.
[General Questions and Answers] KyleBryant:
When I first bought my hero it was using cyanogenmod, I had to flash back to the original rom to be able to activate it.
[General Questions and Answers] plainjane:
Just make a nandroid backup & flash the stock rooted rom. After activation you can just restore from your nandroid backup or flash another rom.

I'd suggest the odexed version of stock. If you're taking it in, go ahead and flash the latest update that came out yesterday so they don't try to update it for you.

(from... Evo/MIUI/Tapatalk)
[General Questions and Answers] bluenadas:
Like was said....simple nandroid the current setup and flash the latest OTA-Rooted update.

Once you get it set up the simply nandroid the stock ROM (Just in case) and restore to the CM7 setup.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wergio:
First question: is possible to automatically activate car mode when a bluetooh device is connected? (even better: when a particular bluetooth device is connected)

Second question: is "car mode" a generic feature of android, or vendor specific? because i noticed some anomaly: the car mode activated by vlingo speach recognition app and widget seems not linked to the standard one activated by apps like "Car Mode Control" (little steering wheel in notification area). There are 2 different car modes?

*****ROOT IS REQUIRED BEFORE PROCEEDING *****

*****FOLLOW THIS FOR ROOT, THANKS TO AYOTEDDY: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1100513

*****CREDITS GO TO SANFRANX415, SS2006, AND FROZ3N*****

The following process was originally made for the Samsung Galaxy S 4G, but works perfectly on the Sidekick 4G as well. I have tested and verified this working.

Steps:

1. Install "010 Hex Editor" you can use the trial version found here: http://www.sweetscape.com/010editor/

2. Install "Terminal Emulator" from the Market. Go to your Sidekick 4G and open the emulator.

*****FOLLOW THESE STEPS VERY CARFULLY*****

After opening a terminal emulator, type the following:

cd /dev/block <enter>

su <enter> <at this point your phone will ask for superuser, click access ALLOW it, if you already havent done so>

dd if=/dev/block/bml3 of=/sdcard/bml3.bak <enter>

*****THE PREVIOUS STEPS WILL PLACE A FILE NAMED "BML3.BAK" ONTO THE ROOT OF YOUR SD CARD*****

Go find the file on your SD Card and transfer it to your computer desktop.

3. Open 010 Hex Editor

4. In 010 Hex Editor, go to "File", "Open File", and open the "bml3.bak" file.

5. Once the file is opened, go to "View", "Linefeeds", "Fixed Custom", and ensure the number is set to "32"

6. Using your keyboard, select CRTL+F to search for a hex string, when the search window pops up select "Hex Byte" in the type field and then search for the following string below:

"FFFFFFFFFF0100000000" ALL TOGETHER, then hit the FIND ALL button to the right, some of you will get 2 results and others up to 10 results on your screen.

7. If you look at your Hex editor there are 3 window panes on the selected line

e.g 4CCC60h <-- Offset

01 01 01 01 < -- Hex Keys

yyyyyyyyy <- ASCII text (your 8 digit unlock code will be here)

8. Go through each result from the above search and you will see on the 3rd window pane (yyyyyyyyy) after the hex keys there is an 8 DIGIT CODE (write this code down), this is your unlock code NCK for your phone.

Sidenote: THIS 8 DIGIT CODE SHOULD SHOW ON AT-LEAST ONE MORE RESULT CHECK ALL YOUR RESULTS FROM THE SEARCH ABOVE IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBTS (SOME OF YOU WILL HAVE YOUR CODE SHOWN AT-LEAST 2 TIMES AND SOME OF YOU WILL HAVE THE CODE SHOW MORE THAN 4 TIMES BUT YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE THAT MANY RESULTS)

***** TO INPUT THE UNLOCK NETWORK CODE DO THE FOLLOWING *****

9. Turn off your phone

10. Insert a foreign SIM card not attached to your current provider (e.g if you have T-Mobile, use an AT&T SIM CARD), and turn on your phone.

11. You will be prompted to enter a Network Unlock Control Key (use the code above that you wrote down and type it in your phone exactly)

12. After entering your NCK please hit "Unlock" or "GO" button and you should see a screen that says "Network Unlock Successful", and your phone should go in the main screen after your phone has been unlocked.

[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] jeromecornet:
700 results ! are you 100% sure ?

what is the size of your bml3.bak file ?

do you get the same 6 digits sequence (in ASCII) after each result ?

If so that's probably the code.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] jomarxx:
I had the same problem. I was getting 700 results.when I scrolled all the way down the code was there. In results 699 and 700
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Azuske:
You get a lot of results... once you get the results you look through every one of them till you find the code on the right... its 8 numbers really obvious that its the code your looking for
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] chaostic_2k1:
Any chance for a screenshot of the hexeditor on the correct string?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] -Maverick-:
I ended up getting 468 results. After scrolling down the results slowly I found the unlock code. You'll know once you see it, as it stands out very clearly as a 8 digit code, it just takes time finding it if you end up getting a lot of results.

[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] ansible917:
Thanks for posting this. I followed the instructions exactly and it worked on my Sidekick 4G. There were over 120 matches to that hex string, and the unlock code was with the last two matches in the file. In case it wasn't clear, you should see 8 digits (hex values 0x30 to 0x39) right after the string you are searching for. The ASCII values (what you would actually type on the keyboard) are in the right pane of the hex editor.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] mojo4713:
ok so i followed all the instructions step by step and i opened the file in the editor 2 different ways from this forum and another, i searched for "FFFFFFFFFF0100000000" and it looked thru all 565 results and most of the results are "0.1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9" always in order but sometimes split up found 1 result with the correct amount of numbers but didnt work, just wondering if i went wrong somewhere?

If you're a TMobile customer, you can just call up customer service and ask them for the unlock code. They may refer you to Samsung, but they're required to give it to you. You only need to unlock it yourself if you're not a T-Mobile customer.

Is anyone else having issues with power while using navigation in the car dock? Twice this week I've dropped my phone into the dock while fully charged, and taken a 4 hour trip using just navigation and pandora. By the time I reached my destination I had under 15% battery both times. The dock is plugged into an adapter that puts out 2.1A, and the battery on the phone indicates that it is taking a charge the entire time.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] ygthb:
me too

I have noticed, that if I have BT, Pandora, and nav running at the same time, the draw is more than the charge, i.e. the battery runs down.

BUT

I have the att car charger, with the curly micro usb and an extra port, and a light to show plugged in. I plug the dock cable into the extra slot, and charge my plantronics using the curly cord. i tend to only pull the charger half way out when getting out of the car. I have put my phone in the dock, without plugging in the charger, and the light illuminates, pulling power from the phone. I drive on thinking the phone is charging, while using bt, pandora and nav, pulling on battery the whole time, and then wonder why my batery is so low when I get to the office.
