[Atrix 4G Accessories] alvarog423:
Hello

I own a motorola atrix and recently i took an interest in the multimedia hd to stream series and movies in 1080p resolution to my tv, i usually do it by just plugging the hdmi cable, but, i quickly realized that the problem is the storage, i only have 16 gb + 16gb microsd card, every1 knows that on 1080p resolution you cant put more than a few movies on the phone to take all that space.

My question is simple, if i buy the multimedia dock could i plug an external hard drive on one of the usb ports (of the multimedia dock) so i can use my atrix to display those videos? is it possible?

Thanks
[Atrix 4G Accessories] Ririal:
Yup. I do it with the Lapdock all the time. Just make sure it's FAT32 (or any *nix FS), it doesn't read NTFS drives.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] paravorheim:
Has anyone tried installing ntfs3g in the full ubuntu mod? That could allow for any external with ntfs as well.

[EVO 4G General] Jettubby:
Hello all. Yes I'm a Newb here and to Rooting phones, etc., but I've been doing a lot of reading and lurking here. I'm a Masters Degreed Airline Pilot and been building computers for over 20years. So not completely new to technology, but I would like the opinion and advice from those of you who have been at this much longer than me.

I have a original EVO and so far have backed up my phone (v2.2), written down all my hardware/software info, made a copy of my WIMAX keys (as recommended on this forum) and have already rooted my phone with Unrevoked3 (clockwork recovery). Have installed Titanium Backup (paid) and created another backup of my settings and apps. So at this point looking at flashing a ROM/kernel and trying to decide on a good one to start that has some potential to load one of the many themes on this forum. What would you suggest?

I can go Sense or not. What I use my phone primarily for is:

- On call at work so stability is important

- Gmail/Yahoo Mail

- Flight Tracker & Weather apps (hey I'm a pilot!)

- Google calendar

- Texting

- Tethering to the laptop (so having 4G is important)

- GPS functions

Where would you start regarding a ROM/kernel? I've been looking at CM7, Gingerbread EVO deck, & VirusROM.

My phone currently has 2.2 Build 3.70.651.1 / Hardware v0003

I like performance (speed baby!) & a clean, professional looking OS.

Recommendations? Thanks to all that contribute here. A great wealth of info!
[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
Right now, I would endorse the one I'm using, Mik 1.01. It's fast, clean, has all the options I'd want and very very stable.

Excellent job on the research you've done and steps you've taken so far!
[EVO 4G General] jayharper08:
I'm using the Evo Deck rom and my phone has never performed better, and I've been flashing roms for about 9 months now :) Looks like you've got all the basics covered and you're ready to go!

[EVO 4G General] chunkyhao:
I'd recommend the MikG rom. I flashed to it last week after I found out that the new GB update still used sense 1.0 . The rom is clean and fast; on top of that, there is a ton of support with updates coming out quickly and regularly. it has sense 2.1 with some things from sense 3.0 which are great. link is below:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1038967
[EVO 4G General] Jettubby:
Thanks for the recommendations so far guys.
[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
I'll tell you, I spent 3 days pouring over the Ginger-Sense ROMS, reading everyone's experiences with them, etc and in the end I chose Mik's because of a), best reports of stability and fewest issues, b) The Dev's excellent reputation and C) it contained everything I was looking for.

Once Synergy is released, I will be flashing it to compare and whichever suits me the best will be my daily driver.
[EVO 4G General] lost_man10002:
Yeah u look educated on this stuff I personally like decks cm7 but I suggest u flash a rom or two and try them out...u can easily switch between roms and as long as use titanium backup to store apps only u will b set back up quilkly...happy flashing

Quick warning -- don't restore system settings between different roms it will mess up only restore apps and data for apps in titanium backup and u golden

sent from my cyanogenized evo 4g
[EVO 4G General] Jettubby:
In Titanium backup it gives the option of "Backup all user apps" and another option to "Backup all user apps & system data". Is it safe to backup and restore apps & system data or just the apps?
[EVO 4G General] phatmanxxl:
Don't backup any system data unless the ROM your flashing is the same one you just wiped, I did it in my noob days, everything force closes constantly.
[EVO 4G General] xchompondizx:
Try Deck's or myn's Rom. :p
[EVO 4G General] Jettubby:
Rgr ;)

You will not regret any of myn's work..... check out..... warm 2.2 or hold tight for synergy...... we are testing a pre beta release now and keep an eye out..... These are great!

Sent my Synergy EVO 4G
[EVO 4G General] Jettubby:
Dumb question but after flashing the ROM and rebooting will the new ROM have problems with the programs, data, etc that's on on the SDcard?
[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
No, not at all....
[EVO 4G General] Jettubby:
Thanks. I take it that the new ROM will read and use any apps on the SDcard but I'll need to "restore missing apps" using titanium backup those apps that are stored on the phone itself?

Well I'm down to the decision of MikG or Myn's 2.2 ROM ????
[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
Correct again. When you run Titanium, just select Restore All Apps With Data, then toggle the check boxes for your actual apps, and not the system apps.

it's pretty easy to tell, they'll be in white lettering.
[EVO 4G General] Jettubby:
Perfect! Thanks.
[EVO 4G General] plainjane:
I'm probably misunderstanding that you're misunderstanding this, but just in case...

When you move an app to your SD card, it only puts part of the app there. When you do a factory reset, flash a new rom, get a new phone, whatever, the app won't automatically be there just because you moved it to your SD card. You'll need to redownload or restore it.

However, the part that was moved to the SD card does stay there unless you wipe it. You don't want to leave those pieces there, so you'll want to be sure to wipe SD-ext and .android_secure if you move apps to the SD card. These are options in Amon Ra recovery, but unless ClockworkMod has changed, you won't have those options. You can use a format all zip, just be sure it's edify scripted if you plan on sticking with ClockworkMod.

I also suggest switching to Amon Ra because it wipes more thoroughly and there are more wipe options, it's both edify and amend compatible, you have more control over your nandroid backups, and the options/menus are more nicely placed and easier to understand. If you do switch to Amon Ra, be sure to do another nandroid backup since backups made with ClockworkMod can't be restored with AR and vice versa.

There's nothing wrong with Clockwork, aside from amend scripting errors it never gave me problems. I just prefer Amon Ra, and I think you'll find many others do too.

Again, I probably misunderstood what you were saying about apps on the SD card, but more information can't hurt.
[EVO 4G General] Jettubby:
I did load and switch to Amon RA today. Like it a lot better.

So is that "plain" or "plane" jane? ;)
[Thunderbolt General] krnsushiman:
Hi I'm running CM7 w/ dream kernel and my GPS isn't locking on at all. Also, my wifi keeps displaying "disabled" and refuses to connect. Does anyone who has had similar problems know any fixes?
[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:
For GPS, backup up your CM7 then load any sense based ROM. Get a very solid GPS lock (Use GPS status from the market so you can be sure) then restore your CM7 build. Thats the only way I got my GPS to work.
[Thunderbolt General] pezaremba:
I was having a similar problem before I went back to Das BAMF 1.7.

There are threads about AOSP kernels that have Wifi issues which required a code fix. I suggest flashing a different kernel which has a Wifi fix in the changelog.

(Un)Fortunately GPS problems are not unique to the Thunderbolt. I had similar issues on my Motorola Droid with the AGPS data. Whenever I have GPS problems on any ROM, I run the application "GPS Status & Toolbox" by "EclipSim". It is capable of forcing an AGPS update. After getting the updated data Force Stop and restart the application having a GPS synchronization problem. If AGPS data was the issue then the application should sync quickly.
[Thunderbolt General] krnsushiman:
I tried both of those but they didnt work. The thing is wifi worked fine for about 3 days and started malfunctioning this morning. GPS didn't work from the start.
[Thunderbolt General] krnsushiman:
GPS won't lock on on my backup either
[Thunderbolt General] joshnichols189:
Go to your sense based rom. Download gps status from the market. Open gps status, hit menu then go to toolbox. Clear gps data and then redownload agps data. Get gps lock. Go back to CM7.
[Thunderbolt General] nerozehl:
Did you install the kernel with ROM Manager or Kernel Manager? If you did, your wifi module is probably hosed. Install through CWR. Use the Sense/CM7 rom changing trick to get GPS lock.

Dreamkernel has the Wifi/MMS/Settings fix.
[Thunderbolt General] krnsushiman:
Fixed everything! Thanks guys. This is an amazing community.
[HTC EVO 3D] sdc177:
I have called two Radio Shacks about this and not surprisingly they were clueless on the details. From the Radio Shack site:

My Hero that has been beat to **** actually meets that criteria and I'd take $75 for it in a heartbeat. So...which phones are the "select smartphones" they reference? Is the Hero one of them?
[HTC EVO 3D] mwalt2:
When I called RadioShack, the guy I spoke with said the store has a list of phones 'guaranteed' to get $75 and that it was 'quite a few'. Unfortunately for me, an old HTC Touch Pro2 was not on that list ;).
[HTC EVO 3D] XxDjbluexX:
I've been wondering the same thing because I would trade it no doubt for $75
[HTC EVO 3D] No1ustad:
if the list has been published, it'd be helpful! I have a htc snap, touch pro, centro, htc vogue that i'd love to get rid of for $75... total
[HTC EVO 3D] rockypr:
Actually have a Question for you guys, if I take a Samsung Epic today will they traded in for a Gift Card?

The trade in right know is 140 for the Epic 4G... What do you think?

BTW.. The Epic is not in my name, it was a gift but it cannot be activated because the person has not pay the last bill, and the phone shows active.
[HTC EVO 3D] guyandhisdog:
Radio shack told me that my cdma hero would only get $52 Max from their buyback program. However, the guy seemed to be clueless as it took him 30 minutes to complete 2 Evo 3d preorders.

Can someone please post the $75 list if you have it?

Also, does it mention anything about the trade ins being stock/rooted?

EDIT. Signing up for RS email gets you a $10 off coupon. Maybe/maybe not work for Evo 3d as it says "May not be valid on certain other discounts." Whatever that means... worth a shot, I guess.

2.3.4 on a Hero? Yup
[HTC EVO 3D] mwbarb:
I just checked out my local RadioShack on 3rd Avenue in New York City and they had the list of cell phones that qualified for the $75 credit. Unfortunately the HTC Hero was not listed :mad:

See attached picture for the complete list posted at this RadioShack.
[HTC EVO 3D] sdc177:
What a scam! $75 is theft for most of those phones!
[HTC EVO 3D] greg.dassing:
Sprint has their own buyback program that you can use as a credit toward you account. They are currently offering $150 for the original EVO! I'm using that and my $45 "stay with us" credit they just gave me on top of my upgrade...which will land me the 3D for $5! Check Sprint's buyback program and see how much they will give you for your phones: https://secure2.sprintbuyback.com/consumer/

They also accept phones from other carriers...
[HTC EVO 3D] Deltatristar500:
$40 for my Hero via sprint
[HTC EVO 3D] greg.dassing:
Better than nothing...and probably better than what anybody would give you for that phone! Hahaha! I paid $450 for the EVO on launch day because I bought the Hero on it's launch day with my upgrade and wasn't eligible for an upgrade in June when the EVO launched...I couldn't stand one more moment with the Hero! Sprint gave me $80 for it a year ago...win-win if you ask me!

I bought my beat up hero a couple weeks ago for $50 after selling my EVO. I'd gladly take $75 from RS for it.
[HTC EVO 3D] jessejames111981:
I doubt a hero will qualify for the full $75

[Wildfire Android Development] zyonee:
First of all, this is not my work. I only compiled it.

This is the usual ClockworkMod recovery, compiled from the CM7 sources with additions/modifications by j_r0dd. What I've done is only to compile it for the HTC Wildfire. For details, check out the link to j_r0dd's original thread for the Nexus S.

The credits go to Koush for the recovery itself and to j_r0dd for the modifications. Can be installed with unrEVOked. Installs and works well according to users in this thread. Off-mode charging works according to t0mas_.

Original Nexus S thread with changelog here.

17-Jul-2011 (v4.0.1.0.110717):

Rebased completely on j_r0dd's 4.0.1.0 source and removed roalex's ext4 additions, as it wasn't working for everyone. Now trying with the original ext4 support which is included in CWM.

20-Jul-2011 (v4.0.1.4.110720):

Bug fixes

Disclaimer

These recoveries are compiled using the latest commits from koush, j_r0dd and others. That means they haven't been thoroughly tested and might have minor/major issues. I take no responsibility for any damages this thing might cause, but most things should work as intended. If you want something guaranteed to work, I think you should stick with one of the older versions.

[Wildfire Android Development] zyonee:
No idea. It depends on the CM7 3.2.0.0 recovery source code. I didn't change anything, and I'm quite sure j_r0dd didn't touch this.
[Wildfire Android Development] zyonee:
Great! Updating the OP.
[Wildfire Android Development] t0mas_:
thanks, i'll try this out when i find time
[Wildfire Android Development] aggourodolmas:
one silly question. I use as recovery clockwork 2.xxxx version for a long time now since I first rooted my device with Unrevoked tool. If I flash this new recovery or any other recovery with unrevoked will it create another superuser option that will conflict with the one that was created from the first root?
[Wildfire Android Development] zyonee:
Well, the recovery image itself doesn't touch superuser, but unrevoked will. I belive that you might be downgrading the superuser binary, but (at least for CM7) a reflash with the same zip without wiping anything should restore the superuser binary that was included in your ROM. It should work on other ROMs as well, as long as they're not wiping /data or /sd-ext while flashing for some reason. Make a nandroid backup before you consider flashing this recovery, that's my advice. :)
[Wildfire Android Development] s0ulbl5d3:
Can anyone confirm if this supports off mode charging?
[Wildfire Android Development] zyonee:
Not sure where to look, but maybe one can search for this in some type of changelog for the official cwm repository.

Can be possible with this version use ext4 file system?
[Wildfire Android Development] zyonee:
For the sd-ext partition, yes. You can choose ext2/3/4 when creating partitions. However, I don't know if backup/restore works on ext4 sd-ext. I'd love to see someone testing it.
[Wildfire Android Development] kylon:
no sd ext

/system, where a rom is installed

this should increase the speed
[Wildfire Android Development] zyonee:
I don't know if any ROMs for Wildfire can support ext on the system partition...?

Edit: I see no evidence of anyone having converted their /system partition to ext on Wildfire, Desire, N1, etc. Someone also wrote that it would be unnecessary in these phones, as this was just needed on Samsung Galaxy S. Read this thread.
