[Motorola Triumph] Free Radical:
Guys.

Here's everything you need to make a custom boot logo (splash.img)

You can use the same method to replace the splash.img like you did for recovery.img

You just need an 800x480 sized png image of your choice. Have put a sample for you to get started.
[Motorola Triumph] munkyvirus:
Well, we have our recovery. Danke, devs, now get back in the kitchen. :)
[Motorola Triumph] merkuralex:
We never left the kitchen ;)
[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
Hot damn..... here we go!
[Motorola Triumph] tusing:
Hmm its only 8-10 pixels in one column that start flickering when I am viewing a shade of brown. I don't know, I mean, is it worth returning for that? From what I've heard, I'm lucky to have an otherwise working phone?

Also, do you have bad signal in many places, long GPS lock time, etc.?
[Motorola Triumph] jromeo350:

ROM Documentation

Hey everyone! The ROM documentation has been posted.

http://goo.gl/euBXK

Not by me; I only take credit for help spreading the news, thats all.

And on another note, I got Ubuntu 10.10 successfully running on the Triumph!
[Motorola Triumph] mvalenc3:
cwm recovery installed

Did a complete backup and everything seems to be working correctly. Great job guys
[Motorola Triumph] richiehd:
We all picked a great phone, haha. :) So glad I dumped my vibrant.
[Motorola Triumph] super-6-1:
A boot loop? what did you have downloaded?

Well the only OTHER option i can give you is get a framework.apk back up if you didn't make you, go into bootloader under a Linux distro and all of it will mount, your going to get a system parition and in that go to system/framework and then replace the .apk and your done.
[Motorola Triumph] apsterling:
That's what Coderah (Merkuralex) and I figured out by plugging it in to OS X and Ubuntu and ultimately precisely how I solved it. I have a stock System Pull in my home folder that I've now write-locked so I can't screw it up.
[Motorola Triumph] super-6-1:
lol nice, i have that as well. i have it on a 1 gig thumbdrive locked
[Motorola Triumph] joe green:
when are we going to get a dual band radio. 800/1900mhz. i would like to know so i can return this within 30 days if we cant get one. does anyone know if it is even possible to add anther band.
[Motorola Triumph] crxmax:
thinking about upgrading from my ov...should i buy from best buy or radio shack?? i thought i read somehting about the bad eggs coming from best buy.
[Motorola Triumph] prech:
Would the radio antenna be a hardware issue? What suggests the 800mhz is physically present and can be "enabled"?
[Motorola Triumph] tusing:
Motorola will push an update enabling the other band.

Sent from god.
[Motorola Triumph] super-6-1:
Yep, Moto will push a update very soon for the phone, i personally think this phone was rushed out the door.
[Motorola Triumph] tusing:
Got Backtrack 5 linux on triumph

So, I just got Backtrack 5 on the Triumph (I only take credit for compressing and uploading).

It's quite amazing. Download here:

[Motorola Triumph] joe green:
how do you know if they will release an update for the phone for 800mhz band. and other things. could you post a link
[Motorola Triumph] Reviewers:
I'm about to buy the phone / waiting for someone to buy the phone & im going to PM a admin , we need a forum .
[Motorola Triumph] prech:
This would be great news if it improves the signal strength and other bugs. Can you share some more info? What is the source?
[Motorola Triumph] Helgaiden:
I was under the impression the 800mhz band had nothing to do with virgin mobile since the active (and only band used) was 1900mhz? The optimus has an 800mhz band because its a carryover from the optimus S on Sprint where it can roam onto verizon's 800mhz bands. As we all know, Virgin Mobile doesnt allow roaming thus no need for an 800mhz band...
[Motorola Triumph] tusing:
We're close!

The Motorola dev site claims the phone is capable of 800 and 1900 bands. It is very likely they will push an update and release the source, as the people over at the other forums told me.

iKarosDev is developing for the phone, while LiquidPalacity and Coderah and foobarX are helping out a TON! And other people, too.

Really, I'm just reporting the news!
[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
Sprint is slowly moving 800Mhz spectrum they have for iDEN over to CDMA - it's ideal for more-rural areas as it penetrates much better and can be done with lower tower density in places where high user-count usage is not as much of an issue. 1900 is better in urban areas - while it doesn't penetrate buildings as well it is easier to engineer for higher-density coverage.

Right now this is (mostly) a nothingburger in that you can't roam off Sprint on Virgin anyway, but over the next months (and ultimately years) it will become more and more important. I see no reason to believe they won't enable it when the 800 towers start being turned up, and it's probably possible to turn it on now, provided you can get the right bits stuffed in the proper place.
[Motorola Triumph] WEWE03:
can some one upload a stock rom for me. i need it to flash my phone back to the original state. i messed up the system files in the phone
[Motorola Triumph] WEWE03:
how to you know that motorola is making an update for this phone. if so, do u know the eta,
[Motorola Triumph] solarisin:
Another +1 for a triumph forum.
[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
Has anyone else noticed that the drive to the screen appears to be reversed - that is, subtractive rather than additive - and this causes Drocap and other screen-capture programs to pick up a chroma-reversed image?

Any ideas on a fix for this?
[Motorola Triumph] skyau:
I use Screenshot (no root or anything) and I get normal captures. No adverse effects yet that I've seen.
[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
Uh, that's a B&W image. Try a color one.
[Motorola Triumph] skyau:
Doink!
[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
Interesting - Screenshot works properly, but Drocap2 is all hosed up. I'll switch.
[Motorola Triumph] idbl_fanatic:
Any possible way you could make this a flashable zip?
[Motorola Triumph] maxfairday:
I'm about to get this phone and it looks like its going to be a good seller. Lets hope it gets some support here!
[Motorola Triumph] kofman13:
omfg i love your wallpaper and widgets, what are they?
[Motorola Triumph] jemping:
Just a heads up to those who want to pick up the phone.

Best Buy Mobile (not best buy store) have 30% sale of all virgin mobile phone with in-store activation, ending at 8/20.

So, the price for this phone will be $210 + tax.
[Motorola Triumph] tgpraveen:
Did you get the $50 gift card?
[Motorola Triumph] jemping:
Some people succeeded in getting that, but some did not.

Even without the GC, it's a pretty slick deal.

You can always ask the associate at Best Buy Mobile for that to see if they can stack it.
[Motorola Triumph] skyau:
Hmm. That's hard to say. I'll see if I can remember- I just started collecting minimalist widgets and placing them.

The lock screen is Widget Locker, there is a thread in the Android themes section where you can get Widget Locker themes. The unlock slider is "Simple3."

Live Wallpaper is "Magic Smoke." (I think it came with the phone) just cycled it until I got gray.

For battery level, "Minimalist Text" which has a LOT of customization for battery, weather and clock. You can also use your own font by putting it in a particular folder on the SD Card. It won't change SYSTEM font, just that widget.

For the notifications I used "Missed It!" again, with a little work you can change the look of it pretty extensively.

I think that clock is "Simi Clock."

The weather widget is Beautiful Widgets with the "simplesolid" skin.

For home screens/dock I'm using Launcher Pro.

This screen has "Bobclockd3" and icons I made using "Simple Text" icon creator.

I'm pretty sure all of the things I'm using can be found in the marketplace.
[Motorola Triumph] merkuralex:
As I stated over on the androidforums I will be making a flashable zip when either I can confirm this works or a few others confirm that it is working.

This is off topic but my triumph will not download anything over 3g. Just says download failed. Works when on wifi.
[Motorola Triumph] crxmax:
photon has df but not the triumph??? no love for the prepaid
[Motorola Triumph] maxpower17:
try running the activate app again.
[Motorola Triumph] skyau:
I lose data probably 4 or 5 times a day. It happened on my Intercept also- try holding down the power button to get the Phone Options menu and selecting Airplane Mode. Then after about 30 seconds do it again to turn Airplane Mode off.

That works for me when I have connection problems. If you've alread tried that then I'm not sure what the problem might be, sorry.
[Motorola Triumph] qipengart:
Would love a custom Motoblur ROM for it!
[Motorola Triumph] Reviewers:
Who want's to buy me a Triumph that way i can develop for it ?
[Motorola Triumph] richiehd:
Even at 35/month, id still be saving 500 a year. Can't wait for this device. Im excited. I hope its glass and not plastic.
[Motorola Triumph] Jow24:
i hope they make the thread im like 90% sure im gettin that phone virgin has a great coverage here in PR
[Motorola Triumph] richiehd:
I preordered it last night officially. Let's do this xda.

Share this post with anyone interested in or that is supportive of this device. We need more signatures!
[Motorola Triumph] cityoke2:
All for a Triumph development section, hopefully it doesn't have a locked bootloader.
[Motorola Triumph] richiehd:
Even if it does have a locked bl, roms can still be developed. We just cannot expect custom kernels.
[Motorola Triumph] maxpower17:
I'm thinking about grabbing one of these next week. I'm kind of new to android.. will the locked bootloader keep development down for this phone? Can you still overclock without a custom kernel?
[Motorola Triumph] richiehd:
I believe you need an unlocked bl to over and underclock. You could also do it, I believe, by 2nd init. I know thats how people got cyanogen and miui on the moto defy.
[Motorola Triumph] richiehd:
http://www.howardforums.com/showthr...iumph-official-(coming-late-July-no-price-yet)

A Virgin dealer has the phone already, check the last few pages of that thread.

About a gig of app space and gorilla glass. Looks awesome!!!
[Motorola Triumph] alpha-niner64:
I plan to get the Triumph as well. I would've waiting for the Optimus Black, but I prefer 4.1" over 4" since I have big hands.
[Motorola Triumph] bryceb04:
Got mine today at a best buy in Denver. Locked in that $25 plan. Wish I knew android development, but will gladly donate some beer money to the experts. Btw, I was only in best buy to find a cheap phone to lock in the rate plan, when what to my surprise was there? http://twitpic.com/5pq147

I may have stumbled across a tweet by you when searching twitter for people who have it! Haha. Small world. What did you ask them to get it? Im stopping by tomorrow to try my luck. Im in Queens, NY so its a populated area. Hope its not sold out. I want that 25$ plan.

just so you know...

new plans

$35 - replaced $25

$45 - replaced $40

$55 - replaced $60

all the new plans included unlimited night and weekends

available on the website, radio shack, and best buy on July 19th and Target and Meijer in August.

Looks to be an awesome device for prepaid.
[Motorola Triumph] richiehd:
Where did you hear unlimited nights and weekends? I havebt heard that.
[Motorola Triumph] gafoo:
a bird with with VMU may have told me. ;)
[Motorola Triumph] richiehd:
Hope your right. Only think google told me was about VM Canada gaining N&W. If we in the US get it, id voluntarily take the new plan.

[Motorola Triumph] dimasp6:
Works now. Thanks!
[Motorola Triumph] merkuralex:
I don't intend on sounding like a jerk or anything but I think isaacj87 (a.k.a ikaros) deserves donations first, he has already shown dedication to us by helping get a working recovery going and is already working on CM7 but he doesn't have a device yet.

reference: http://androidforums.com/motorola-triumph/386070-request-triumph-users.html
[Motorola Triumph] Reviewers:
If I've won you over with my sob story, Sound's like a lie , & he didn't even do anything to lead in direction & he's bullshiting imo .
[Motorola Triumph] merkuralex:
He is on the IRC channel daily helping everyone, and has released source to his recovery, and I have tested his CM7 multiple times.

You haven't done anything to prove why we should donate to you instead, while isaacj87(ikaros) has.

On a more important note I made a flashable zip for a quick way to drop the edited gps.conf on your device. The zip (linked below) has been tested by a few people and confirmed to be working properly.

http://coderah.com/moto-triumph/flashable/mt_gps_conf.zip

-Coderah
[Motorola Triumph] tusing:
I'm sorry, but... He's asked no donations, he works countless hours, and he's always helping everyone. He works hard every day, doing blind development, and works hard in IRC every day.

He's earned our respect and I think its wrong to say something like that.

He's even already build a CM7 build, merkuralex has tested.
[Motorola Triumph] fireball9199:
Well, he bullshat his way to clockworkmod on our phones without having one.

What have you done to deserve the phone?
[Motorola Triumph] 903tex:
No offense but some guy on the Sidekick 4g forum to me to warn everybody about you. I heard you got mad cause nobody thanked you for making a rom and left the forum because of it and the rom you SO CALLED built was another rom of ANOTHER DEV WORK?!? Then your ASKING people to buy you a device??? If you want to help so much then you can make us a rom, since we has a CWM flashable stock rom ready for any devs to get his hands on! But really i dont want your help if your calling issac a sob while he's put CWM on our phones, and working on cm7.

[Motorola Triumph] Reviewers:
I have been doing blind developement but forget that now .
[Motorola Triumph] merkuralex:
That's cool have you been a part of the open source community by sharing what you are doing? No you just asked that everyone instantly respect you and donate to you, I respect the people of this community because they dev because they enjoy it and the others in the community.

We are glad you took interest and would love you to work on the phone, but don't expect everyone to just donate to you because you suddenly ask for it.

And you didn't start out gaining our respect well by calling one of the current devs a liar, respect is part of any community and if you don't get that why should we donate to you?
[Motorola Triumph] tj_style:
isaacj87 have successfully building CM7?

well.. It's the great news for triumph users...
[Motorola Triumph] Helgaiden:
Ive also been working on a master plan to become a billionaire that anyone can reproduce with 100% results. But forget that now.

lol id love to have more developers onboard for this phone's development and even going so far as saying as saying "get me a phone and ill develop for it" is honest enough but downplaying another dev's work? Maybe if this stuff was for-profit business stuff but it isnt. The "im better than that person" attitude doesnt belong in development forums where people volunteer their time and work. You should know that come on dude.

Anyways...

cant wait to see Cm7 on this bad boy whose with me?
[Motorola Triumph] freedomispopular:
How do I flash this?
[Motorola Triumph] merkuralex:
Aye, Ikaros is working on CM7 it is not fully running yet but progress is certainly being made, when its ready for wide-spread use you will absolutely see it on AF and im sure it will be linked to here or posted in a topic if we have a section by then.

just a reminder don't ask for ETA's and stuff like that when we know it will be posted and the info will spread quickly just keep reading the forums and paying attention!

@freedomispopular head over to androidforums all the info is pretty much there if you still need help just PM me and I will help you out.
[Motorola Triumph] fireball9199:
also it seems your paypal has been blocked due to fraudulent activity

*trollface.jpg*
[Motorola Triumph] Bobomo:
Serious question here: I know he was working on CWM, but isn't the one that's currently working on the Triumph from tjstyles? Even if isaac had a hand in figuring that out... credit where it's due.
[Motorola Triumph] fireball9199:
No, Tjsyles cwm was for the Spice m410, it just works in the triumph. Isaac has made his own cwm.
[Motorola Triumph] merkuralex:
Yes sorry in the heat of the moment I forgot to mention the current Recovery we are using is from tjstyle and mostly works on our device and we are very grateful, but ultimately isaacj87 (ikaros) has been directly working with us to get everything working. and has been posting source to the recovery he is making to fully work on our device.
[Motorola Triumph] richiehd:
Revolution added me on gtalk and tried to get me to donate. Seemed very pushy. Nothing against him personally, I just don't donate unless I see something.
[Motorola Triumph] merkuralex:
Exactly what I have been trying to say. Thank you for being open and honest about this.
[Motorola Triumph] richiehd:
Anyways, back on topic. I hope we can get our forum soon. I also hope custom roms can fix the flickering issues. I don't flicker often, once or twice a day, but its still a pain.
[Motorola Triumph] Bobomo:
So please explain what exactly isaac did to get CWM working - because you and he are talking like he did it, but no where have I seen any explanation just him taking credit and then you linking to tjstyle's work. You just accused Revolution of kanging someone else's work and then begging for donations. Please tell me how this situation is different, besides a github account and an irc channel...
[Motorola Triumph] jemping:
the CWM is using tjstyle's work, and as for CM7 on triumph, he is porting it himself.

http://androidforums.com/triumph-al...clockworkmod-recovery-motorola-triumph-3.html

Also, isaac does NOT ask for donation if you read several posts above you.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16229321&postcount=389
[Motorola Triumph] Bobomo:
He did ask for donations and got them:

http://androidforums.com/motorola-triumph/386070-request-triumph-users.html

Try to keep up.

EDIT: I'm seriously not trying to troll - but everyone keeps saying to support isaac because of what he's done, and nobody can explain clearly WHAT HE HAS DONE, except help people on IRC and have some source code on a github account. My BS detector is going off.
[Motorola Triumph] bobloadmire:
From another thread, but posted last night.

Looks like he's swamped anyway.
[Motorola Triumph] richiehd:
I was in the irc when he got clockwork working. Whether he's using tj's now or not, he did a lot of development that I saw and once we get some cyan, I have no issues donating.
[Motorola Triumph] svetius:
Forum coming this week.
[Motorola Triumph] BlastGT1:
I can speak to Isaac's ability. I have known him since he created the Icarus MOD for the Huawei Ascend, and he also ported CM7 to the Ascend. Whether he asks for donations or not isn't much of a concern to me, as he's proven he can put his money where his mouth is. I know he's a full time college student, so I'm sure any donations he receives are being used for more than just beer money, not to mention that I've talked to him at length at other times about subjects that have nothing to do with developing, so I'm pretty confident in saying that this isn't a money grab from him. Why waste time talking about irrelevant subjects when all you want is money?

That aside, we have someone who has released a beta MOD for the Triumph on our little (compared to Phandroid, XDA, Howard, etc) forum, prepaidandroids.net. FYI, this person is also the current maintainer of CM7-Ascend, and also created PlayfulMod 1.0 (a MOD of stock MetroPCS Android 2.2 for the Ascend). Assuming anyone who has a working CWM running on their Triumph is interested, you can find the MOD in our Motorola Triumph forum section, or you can also google "motorola triumph mod" and the link should be one of the top 3 results.

FYI, PPA (our forum) is where Isaac originally released Icarus for the Ascend, and since taking the reins as an Admin at the end of March, I've done all I can to give props to devs there, including creation of a limited-access forum section specifically for people who are interested in dev work on prepaid phones.

Yeah yeah, I know sounds like a plug, and some of it is, but everyone is welcome to check it out. It's not like a tiny site focused on prepaid US carriers is going to be a threat to a giant site that covers so many more people, and we don't want to compete. And just in case anyone thinks I sound like a shill, either for Isaac or PPA, I've been active at Phandroid on my own as well, and I have a very long history in the world of private torrent sites before that.

Anyway, glad to see work on the Triumph moving along, I'm considering getting one myself, maybe after a couple months in case all these problems were just a result of a bad production run. I don't like to rush into things.....

I barely have anything on this phone. Does anyone else have substantially less than 2 GB or is it just me?
