**This requires root.**

The file you need to delete to stop the sprint activation has changed for 2.3.4

it used to be:

/system/app/sprintadroidextension.apk

now it is:

/system/app/DeviceManagement.apk

-------------

If you don't know how to delete files from your internal memory, use Root Uninstaller and look for the the white check in a green circle. It will be the same icon that is in the taskbar after you cancel the activation.

-------------
[Galaxy Tab General] DanielNTX:
I renamed the SprintAndroideExtension.apk in 2.3.4 and I'm no longer nagged. DeviceManagement.apk handles firmware/PRL updates etc.
[Galaxy Tab General] oscarthegrouch:
I agree that renaming the file is a wise idea. There might be a time where you might need it or maybe regret erasing a file. I have experienced this in the past.
[Galaxy Tab General] Mnemoch:
Thanks for this, I just added .bak using ES Explorer and on reboot no nagging...
[Galaxy Tab General] jiminitaur:
I'm pretty sure you're wrong here.

My setup:

EA24 tar flash -> EB28 OTA -> GB update.zip -> zhangqip's root.tar

There was definitely no SprintAndroidExtension.apk on my phone. I know because I triple checked, deleted everything with sprint in the name, and it was still trying to activate. I finally used Super Manager to check the package name on the Activator app and that's how I found out it was now in DeviceManagement.apk.

---------

On a side note, I also deleted: phone.apk, hiddenmenu.apk, and messaging.apk, and now it no longer does the 3G thing. It seems to save battery when the screen is off (it used to drain if I left it sitting) and it allows me to use BT without having to turning off airplane mode. The only problem I've noticed is that settings will crash if you try to open the mobile network settings. I imagine that could easily be fixed with a null phone.apk (one modified to return no signal/activity instead of accessing the modem.bin). Anybody know of one. I imagine one for any device would be suitable.
[Galaxy Tab General] A. Nonymous:
Alternatively (and maybe easier) you can go into Titanium and freeze the same stuff that you froze on Froyo.
[Galaxy Tab General] Mnemoch:
I did EA24 tar flash -> EB28 OTA -> Zhangqip's root.tar last night and the SprintAndroidExtension.apk was right where he said it was. And I renamed this file using ES Explorer (have to turn on Root options and read-write to system; forgot to do this at first and the rename failed but worked the second time) and the nagging is gone. Your suggest file is still there untouched. So he's not wrong, but somehow your Tab is different.
[HTC Inspire 4G] greatzt:
It worked on 5.1.11, now when I click "show on map", no map showing just the black screen for a few seconds and return to the previous interface. Does anyone know how to fix it? Thanks!

Solved: by reinstalling the HTC location
[Nexus S General] philled:
I like to create desktop shortcuts to certain contacts from my address book. If there's a photo associated with the contact, that also displays on the desktop shortcut. But if you rename the shortcut (eg so it's labelled "John" instead of "Smith, John") the photo disappears on reboot. Is this a bug in Android? Does anyone know a fix?
[Nexus S General] patseei:
I experience the same thing. Any fix for this?
[Nexus S General] philled:
So I'm not the only one. What ROM are you running? I'm running ZuluGen which is based on CyanogenMod.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yakul:
I got my atrix about 4 days ago, and I love it. I rooted it and installed gingerblur on the 2nd day, I liked it better than the stock ROM, but then I messed up something with the messaging app (I was transferring my texts from my iPhone to Atrix, needless to say it didnt work) so I had to do a factory reset on my atrix. I did that and then Atrix no longer showed "H+" it just showed H, and the data didnt really work for some reason, so on the second night I had to flash back to stock rom.

I am just going to wait for the official release and then upgrade, I want to enjoy my atrix without a problem lol.

Btw when the official release does come and when we upgrade do we loose everything on our current phone ?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imhuy:
Running 2.2.2, GingerBlur.

All the permabricks going around got me worried.

Can I still OTA running GingerBlur once the official AT&T with unlocked BL comes out or do I have to revert back to a stock AT&T rom?

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongd:
I've got a Bell Atrix right now so I need to wait until something extremely reliable comes along before I toss it on for my daily driver. We can unlock our bootloader using 2nd init but it doesn't go without a flurry of bugs.

Very much appreciate the work all the devs have done, but unless I've got an AT&T Atrix I'm going to sit tight for now. Almost traded my friend his AT&T Atrix for my Bell Atrix (I sold him the AT&T one) but the current bugs in the ROMs are still a tiny bit too much. The hacked kernels are extremely alluring though! :D
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wintermute000:
I'm new to flashing moto style (done HTC, samsungs before) and my atrix is still very new, so going to hold off for now. Would prefer to start from a nice clean stock gingerbread + stock unlockable bootloader (ie fastboot oem unlock) baseline.

All those bricking references in the various leaked /beta ROM threads are definitely worrying. Gotta say too the much smaller dev/hacking community is totally noticeable, information appears much more scattered and newbie unfriendly relative to HTC/samsung threads, there are few authorative 'this is the 'official' way to do XYZ' sources. So still lurking and reading

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schwiing:
I've still got 2.2.2, mainly because I'm waiting for CM7 or something else a bit more stable. I was almost always the first to put ken's P-roms on my atrix, but for flashing an sbf, I want to wait a bit until they're all out of "beta".

Scared? No.

Waiting for a 1.0? yes.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coastalmikey:
From my personal view, that right one doesn't exist. There is always something that leaves you wanting.

Just because something is labeled 1.0 doesn't mean its stable.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnahc79:
Applying the recent ROMs/etc can be relatively safe, but the builds are brand new and not stable enough. If you have the time, like messing around with early builds, provide helpful feedback to devs, and NOT post "OMG my phone is fubared I have no idea what to do and I have no idea how to use adb/etc"...definitely go for it! I just don't have the time to mess with early builds. By the time these very nice ROMs are stable may be around the time the 2.3.4 OTA rolls out.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebeardedchild:
I'm still on locked 1.8.3 Gingerblur as of now. I'm planning on flashing to a clean 1.8.3 SBF tonight and then unlocking the bootloader, but leaving it like that until some real custom ROMs come along. I'm not interested in Motos crappy Gingerbread, and I'm not interested in the some of the "ROMs" in the dev forum now (seems devs these days don't know the difference between a theme and a ROM).

Hopefully we'll be getting real CM7 or MIUI or something real soon. That thread in the dev section that claims CM7 is being ported seems way to sketchy to get my hopes up on it.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neotekz:
i dunno where you are getting the idea that ken's 2.3.4 is not stable...it fixes all the problems with HK 2.4.3 and quite a few from 2.2.2. i havent found anything "unstable" about it yet.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obartuckc:
Wow, I didn't think this topic would cause such an uproar. Honestly, I greatly appreciate all of the devs here on XDA--by no means am I trying to imply that their work is unworthy, harmful, or poor. I was simply trying to poll how many were on the the cusp of flashing an unofficial build, when an official release is so near. Once AT&T puts out the OTA, I'm sure I will be fervently looking to the forums for mods. So please, express the gratitude for the hard working devs and posters here.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ekerbuddyeker:
What a daft posting. Clearly you haven't installed Gingerbread because you would never call it crappy. Its stable, fast and elegant and it works perfectly. I installed the leaked at&t version. Was extremely easy to do.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnahc79:
Ken's build is 3 days old, is not based on HKTW 2.3.4 and labelled beta, that's where I got the idea. It seems usuable for sure, but calling it stable is premature.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sinful Animosity:
Ken's build is more stable than HKTW. It's actually made for our devices. FP scanner works, FFC works. It's stable. Only problem I have is that I have a constant 1 signal bar.

Also, Moto-Bread is not crappy. You obviously have no tried it if you think Moto-bread is bad. When that OTA comes, say bye-bye to flashing old SBF's.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dLo GSR:
wow douche.

The dev's know PERFECTLY WELL the difference between a ROM and a THEME. GingerBlur and its peers were P-ROMs for a reason - we couldn't get anything else on our phones. The bootloader has been unlocked for only a few weeks - the months up to now all we could do was theme and do framework / services tweaks.

so get off your high horse, and if you're such a snob, make your own goddamn ROM. ungrateful ass.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnahc79:
not sure who the moto-bread comment is directed at, I never said it was crappy.

HKTW out of the box was never stable, so comparing any build to it to call it stable does not make sense. My point was that issues/fixes found with HKTW probably do not apply to the AT&T leaked build of 2.3.4/ken's build. Meaning these 2.3.4 ROMs based on AT&T are *really* new. 7 builds in 3 days = the build is still undergoing lots of development. As a developer (not for phones) I've done multiple builds within a day :). I would not call my code stable though.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xploited:
I am staying on official froyo because I am not that hot at the idea of getting GB as soon as possible. If CM7 got released, I would flash it immediately. But since we don't have that yet, I am fine with waiting for official GB in the mean time. :D
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sinful Animosity:
They may be new, but that doesn't mean its not stable. I've noticed nothing that would indicate that I'm not running a full release.

Sorry, forgot to quote the post my second paragraph was directed at.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neotekz:
its not ken's build it's a release that he got from motorola. you make it sound like he build the release from scratch. its labeled beta cause motorola hasnt released it yet. what makes you think there is a lot of development going on? Ken Deodexed and added a few superuser hacks that will obviously not released with att build. hes hasnt done any major changes to the moto build itself just added things, you can see them in the changelog. you are also assuming ATT build as the same issues as HKTW, if you would only read the thread for ATT release you would know that these problems do no exist on ATT build.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnahc79:
I never assumed the ATT build is not the same as the HKTW build, I stated the opposite. Sorry if that was not clear.

Yes, I know ken's build is the ATT release+a few changes. It's those few changes that *could* cause issues that may not pop up right away. However you got me convinced that ken's build is more stable than I thought :).
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebeardedchild:
Edit: This post was a mistake, sorry.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebeardedchild:
I guess what I'm meaning to say is that as stable and elegant as the GB 4.5.91 is, I'm just not interesting in sticking to Motorola ROMs. I'm just waiting to get some CM7 or something and ditch Moto altogether. But I guess flashing the GB ROM in the meantime couldn't do any harm...

You misunderstand me. I apologize if I offended, however I also want to make it clear that I wasn't referring to Gingerblur or any other P-ROMs before the unlock. I used them and loved them given the circumstances. I'm talking about some of the threads in the dev form (AKA the CM7 port one that was locked recently) that claimed work was being done. But the only proof were screenshots from screens that I could produce on my phone right now (some settings, or the spare parts app or whatever). He was unwilling to post videos, but when he said he bricked his phone for reasons unrelated to his work he asked for people to donate more...That seemed sketchy, and I don't approve of that kind of stuff.

I realize the BL has only been unlocked for a couple weeks, so the ROMs won't really be doing anything more than what our phones do now... However, your claims about me are uncalled for. Just because I don't want to use those ROMs right now doesn't make me a douche.

I apologize to anyone for any misunderstanding. I am grateful to all the devs, but the only one that makes me a little leery is the CM7 port guy. That's all I'm tryin to say!

PS sorry for the double post, I posted something else at first but instead of editing I accidentally made a new post. Sorry!

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neotekz:
after you flash a rom you need to calibrate the battery by letting it discharge then wiping battery stats then do a full charge. this is especially important if you flash a bunch roms or hack back to back. before calibration i was using 2% every half hour of idle after calibration i would get a little less than 1% drain per hour idle and about 5-6 hours of screen time. Ken posted in his thread that you need to calibrate after flashing his rom.

Hello ppl,

i got a big problem, i hope someone can help me.

A friend of mine, gave me his galaxy s 2 to fix it. It just showed the battery icon with a circle running into it.

I fixed it with the JIG and got into download mode.

Everything is fine until now, even the flash with Odin shows success, but the phone just wont start up.

It doesnt matter what i do, or flash, its stuck in the samsung galaxy s II screen.

Download Mode is working, but Recovery not. When i try to enter the recovery mode, the phone hangs with the same screen like above.

Is there anything i could try to fix this?

Thank you

geminga
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prodygee:
Okay relax, as you can get into download mode, there's a chance that you can still fix it.

I think you're running the wrong kernel or modem here.

I advice you to freshly install a new rom, and then install a CF-Rooted kernel that allows you to get back into recovery.

Once you got that worked out, get into recovery and select Wipe/factory reset. It should boot now.

If this still does not solve your problem, install VillainRom 2.0 using the process described in the thread. I had the bootloop problem too, but Wiping, Flashing and Wiping again did the trick for me.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rumble6059:
what i would do is install one of these carrier branded ROMs http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1113928

and see if it boots, if it does then flash the cfroot [specific to the carrier version you choose e.g. KF2] make sure thats the right one. that should give you recovery as

prodygee

has said. then do a full wipe, system, data, cache, dalvik and reboot.

afaik this should work. that's worked for me on numerous bootloops!

Hope this helps, Rumble
