[Atrix 4G General] Devnant:
Having to press your finger on a screen for more than 15s. Something you have to do playing most racing, sports and shooter games.
[Atrix 4G General] SolidHelix:
You have to keep your finger in "one spot" for more than 15 seconds. You have to keep it dead still too for it to happen. I'm confident it will be fixed eventually. I do not constitute this as "heavy touchscreen use" you are barely using it at all if you just keep you finger in one spot all the time. The only game I have had a problem with this is guerilla bob. And it's pretty easy to avoid.
[Atrix 4G General] Devnant:
Being easy is not the point. The point is it's freaking annyoing and ruins the entertainment factor (for me) . By all means feel free to disagree with my definition of "heavy touchscreen use". You got the meaning and that's all that really matters.
[Atrix 4G General] rabbitsgotmail:
I have this problems with all games requiring long presses (snes games like mario while running, any racing game, instances in games like star legends and others where moving in one direction for longer periods of time). And the funniest part is this question, how many of you need to often use your phone outside in a rainstorm so that motorola feels the need to add this "bug" ?
[Atrix 4G General] Jibraldor:
Sorry for the extremely late reply, i downloaded the app and i can keep pressing on the same spot for more than a minute without any interruption(i got tired of pressing so i stopped pressing the screen after a minute). I can do the same thing while moving around the screen and it recognizes two touches max.
[Atrix 4G General] Devnant:
Thanks. This indicates the fault lies on AT&T's side.
[Atrix 4G General] scrchngwsl:
Yeah, I ran into this problem today. Very annoying. Not sure why so many people are saying it's not a problem... It's clearly a problem! Gonna try the multi-touch hack when I get time, just in case.
[Atrix 4G General] Ripthorn:
Same problem here with my Atrix latin america version :(
[Atrix 4G General] Jibraldor:
I am not a pro but it seems to be a software issue to me. Maybe flashing an international firmware will solve this problem for you guys? There are a few people who have flashed ORFR on their ATT handsets. You could ask them if you want to.

Sorry for being rude on the first post. I honestly thought you were just trolling "against" the Atrix as i have seen many people do so. When i read about the gaming issue that i am not having.....none of my friends have mentioned to me before....it just got to me.

My honest mistake bro. Hope that your problem will be fixed (try talking to devs who build ROMS and see what they say).
[Atrix 4G General] pacherecords:
Atrix is a great phone, but i prefer a psp to play video games
[Atrix 4G General] LivingChampion:
I don't run into this problem a lot, but I'm not saying it's not there. Hopefully a dev can patch this thing up.
[Atrix 4G General] DrunkFuX666:
Iv been having this same problem since I got my phone about a month back and I assure you... its not just a AT&T problem as im using a Orange UK phone and I have the issue as well...

I actually thought it was a problem with the game so had posted asking about that being the issue... after alottttt of searching I realized this is a touchscreen issue but I feel its probably a software rather than the hardware issue... atleast for me...

Iv seen videos for ppl on youtube where there are points on the screen that don't register touch and other sorts of issues... iv used the touch tester and thankfully don't have any dead areas at all...

But yes what I do have is the same holding down the button in the same place for a while like in racing games it just stops responding... and more importantly in multitouch fps games where you can't control the person at all without all kinds of glitches and the person getting stuck or whatever...

Games iv had this problem on include Rainbow 6 shadow vanguard, gangster mv, heavy gunner and others... these are all games requiring multitouch... because they all require you to keep a finger pressed down...

So I want to ask since alot of you have this issue too and may have readup more than me... is anyone sure if this is a software or hardware problem... because if it's hardware naturally im gonna have to get rid of this phone...

Secondly if its software has there been any fix for it yet that anyone knows of...?? Iv already got Alien v4 running so have the 5 finger hack which proves useless here... some ppl were mentioning CM7 fixing it somehow... do you think they are aware of this problem or is there anyway of informing them...??

And do you think this entire problem is due to the 'raindrop' feature or are there other factors involved as well...??

Sorry for the post but iv just been really frustrated due to this... it actually is practically impossible to play more advanced games on this which despite what ppl say is definitely a key reason why lots of ppl got this phone...

[Atrix 4G General] Jibraldor:
If you got this problem out of the box, it seems more like a hardware problem to me. If you have been having these problems after installing Alien 4, then that could be-not saying it is- the problem.
[Atrix 4G General] DrunkFuX666:
I actually can't say if iv had the issue out if the box because I got the phone from a friend who used it in uk for a week... and quite frankly apart from playing games im not having any issues with the touch... those extended periods of pressing on the screen... and as soon as I got the phone I moved to alien because previously using a SGS I realized custom roms are generally always better than stock...

And as I said kinda scrutinized my screen to see if I get any issues with various touch testers and it seemed to be alright... but it seems this is a known software issue so just hoping its not my hardware... that will mean I sell my phone rather than be able to just exchange it :s

[Atrix 4G General] creativedevil:
I would say it is the software issue making it feel like a hardware issue. If I remember correctly, back in 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 time, there were no more than 2 simultaneous touch inputs were allowed.

After the bootloader was unlocked and devs started putting out new ROMs, there are now upto 8 multi touch point being recognized at a time.

I have the same issue on my Bell Atrix, but the ROM I am using is an AT&T version and hence can't confirm if this is an issue with AT&T or its a widespread problem, but yes, it is a problem.

Yesterday I played GT on my Atrix, for most part the game is really smooth, touch is being recognized but I had a real hard time touching the screen/accelerator pedal after using it for 15 seconds as mentioned by OP.

I hope it is some sort of a switch which needs to be flipped on to make this work.

Agree with others that a phone is not a gaming device but then why there are games out for our Android phones in first place? PS devices or XBOX or anything else is definitely way better, but still playing games on a phone is not a bad idea. ;)
[Atrix 4G General] DrunkFuX666:
Ahh you have a point... it did occur to me but didn't think it was that important... the whole rom being used is At&t even tho the phone itself is a Orange phone... using a international kernel tho... so would that be enough to differentiate it from an at&t exclusive one...?? Maybe should put on the stock rom and see if this still happens... rather those who claim there is no such touch issue what exact rom or firmware version are they using ...?? or kernel even for that matter...??

Sent from my Motorola Atrix
[Atrix 4G General] creativedevil:
As far as I recall, those who have atrix and I know closely and are into android development, have always said that its the problem with Motorola. Its not a hw issue but Moto has somehow kanaged to block users from having a constant touch for more than 15 seconds. I uave same issue with my bell atrix with an atnt rom.
[Atrix 4G General] Devnant:
Well, according to CM7 devs it has something to do with the phone's PDS (whatever the hell that means), and it's very dangerous to mess with it. I'm close to loosing all hope. One thing is sure: I'm never buying a Motorola phone ever again.
[Atrix 4G General] Made2Last:

Make sure you give the phone an extra reboot and try. That's what fixed mine.

[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] jasonbiggs:
Will this work for infus3th3ory? Or will you create another?. Thx
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] yakitori2:
unfortunately it wont. Different base build. I am about 90 percent complete with the infuse theory theme.

All I have left is framework.apk and htc resource.apk. HTC resource file is a muther. lol 1700+ images to sift through.

Hold tight. Likely will have it done by tomorrow afternoon.

This is going to be for the 1.1B build. I recommend a full wipe install of the update from Theory (instead of flashing over 1.0). Then flash my theme when I update the thread.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] jsalas17:
I flashed over 1.1 now to see how it worked... Contacts wont open but I haven't run across anything else. I'll flash the 1.1 theme tomorrow but I'm still keeping this for now because I really like it. Great work Yak!
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] jsalas17:
One request though if it's not too much trouble. You have a themed internet icon and also the right button says web... I feel silly having 2 ways to launch the same thing. I realize I can change the right button rosie setting but I don't want to because it says web... Any way you can make it say "Misc." Or something other than web so I can keep the themed web icon? I realize this may be selfish and it's not a problem if you can't. I'm keeping it regardless :-)

Dude, u added lipan conjuring as an alarm?! That is awesome! Most might not recognize that, but i think that's pretty damn cool :D

uploading now. Had a snafu with the updater script. Worked out now.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] yakitori2:
updated OP with latest.

Known issue:

selecting Verizon on bottom tab in rosie causes FC. I am working on fixing this.

Also, trying to get rid of all the green...mainly because I hate that green color. Its ugly as hell in my opinion. Also need to fix my .9png for the media progress...its stretching.

added new ringtone, notification, and alarm.

also included volume wake mod to keep it from unlocking when pushing the volume keys while screen is locked. Bunch of other stuff I cant remember. lol

kinda busy at the moment. Wont be on this weekend...enjoy it though.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] yakitori2:
hey everyone...i have a fix coming for the media player progress bar.

Will update the theme in the OP, as well as post the fix only flash here. If you have flashed the theme already...just flash this fix...if you have not...then flash the full theme.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] yakitori2:
Links live now

also this is a WIP...my goal is to rid the rom of green. It may take a while.

[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] MrSniffles69:
OK I installed the version for infuse and I'm loving it this theme is awesome. The only issue that I am having is my weather keeps force closing whenever I unlock my phone or when I try to go to my weather. Also is there anyway to get the same icon pack you have in the screenshots on the OP
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] MrSniffles69:
Also what's with the pattern unlock buttons kinda weird lol
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] yakitori2:
For force close on weather go to settings..application... Manage apps and clear data. Then open weather and quickly hit menu and settings...uncheck sound effects. You should be good after that.

Sound effects seem to be causing fc
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] jsalas17:
Thanks for a great theme, Yak! Just FYI... I read somewhere on another theme to flash without wiping cashed, stats, or anything. So I flashed without wiping anything and have no issues whatsoever. Music player status bar is working, no FCs on weather. The ROM is running great and your theme is sweet! Thanks again man!

Edit... I do get FC on weather when sound is enabled, it was disabled before I flashed. No biggie though, the sound gets annoying anyway :-)
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] yakitori2:
Yeah. Can't fix that one yet. Lol. I always disabled mine which is likely why mine wasn't fc until reported and I started playing with it. Sorry I broke for those who love the weather sounds

Either way, after updating to Honeycomb 3.1, my market was messing up, even after a factory reset, so it should at least be better than that.

*edit*

I just found out that I still have both markets, the old and the new, to choose from.

Hello All,

My wife just recieved a refurbished phone through best buy. I tried to root her phone with unrevoked. When i went through with the process i got a error code through unreoked about firmware being too new. So after reading around I found out that it has the OTA FW and cannot be rooted yet. So after the root failed I cleared the storage on the phone. So now everytime she uses the phone it begins to boot loop when she begins to make a call. This is not my first time rooting I have done this plenty of times. Any Ideas?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Watcher07:
Sounds like you've done what you can with the phone. Without s-off you cant flash the custom recovery to get more access to the file system so you're fairly stuck. You might try going into the phone settings and doing a full restore, just save any pics and whatnot she may have taken onto a computer so you can wipe the sd card for good measure as well. If that doesn't fix it then just take it to BB and tell them the refurb isn't working.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vladbaca:
Well, I recently bought a Galaxy S and immediately flashed it to the latest firmware - XXJVQ and I'm using the Galaxian 2.1 kernel.

I haven't made a lot of calls of it, but today I noticed an annoying background noise in ingoing sound during calls. It's identical to the noise a phone makes when you put it close to computer speakers, but not as loud. The noise is bearable, but really annoying, especially during long calls.

After messing around a bit with some settings, I have noticed that this issue is only present in GSM networks. If I switch to WCDMA network type, there is no background noise. The problem is also solved if I use earphones, regardless of the network type I use.

I don't know if this problem appeared after flashing the latest firmware, as I haven't talked on the phone before flashing.

While the problem is solveable as shown above - either switching to WCDMA or using headphones -, neither option appeals to me, as the former is battery-consuming and the latter unpractical.

Does anybody know how to completely solve this issue?

It has to for certain data functions that don't happen over wifi, such as mms.
[Verizon Droid Charge] brian1972ct:
Could be checking for voicemail or MMS.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Khanusma:
I thought mms and phone did not go through the data part. Wifi is the replacement for data which is what the 3G is there for.

[Verizon Droid Charge] Yankees368:
on verizon, MMS must go through 3G/4G. If your phone can't get an IP from the wifi network, it will still show the bars, but will also show 3G/4G as a fall back.
