[T-Mobile LG G2x] joser24:
I have been dealing with this in the best possible way being patient and having hope that this update would fix all problems. but was i wrong. i feel like LG just released this update just because so many were nagging about it. i feel like LG is worse in their updates compared to samsung! and i thought they couldnt get worse. all i have to say to LG is HIRE OUR DEVS or GET YOUS TOGETHER!!!

NEVER BUYING ANOTHER LG Product again! (and i have had probems with their TVs... i should have known making the same mistake twice!)

feel free to vent!:D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spyvie:
LG did not release this update. There was no announcement or comment of any kind, someone just found it this morning. Official updates are OTA from the carrier.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wmm:
We know that this version is the one that is being tested by internal users. My guess is that they decided that they would get more and better testing if they quietly made that test build available to the enthusiast public. It's clearly not finished yet -- unchanged kernel, vanilla camera, GPS driver still screwed up -- so it couldn't be offered OTA to the mass consumer, but it will be picked up very quickly by most enthusiasts and tested much more thoroughly than it would be their internal cadre of guinea pigs. A quiet release like this also has the advantage of taking the wind out of the sails of those who were alleging that LG had no intention of ever updating the software. Seems like a win-win situation all around.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] joser24:
from the peopel i know that got OTA as an employee... they havent noticed a difference. but its all a waiting game now.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Horsey:
Still got a SOD and reboots which still leads me to think it is a hardware issue not software. Hopefully tmoble releases the official GB update soon and maybe it will be better.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flexnix:
#neverforgot = Samsung Vibrant issue

#awwfucknotagain = LG G2x

So far I've been "meh" with this phone. I haven't done the new GB leak yet since now I'm waiting on all these dev's to cook up some of their debloated rom's.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] eagle1967:
gps

prior to this update gps would never lock satellites on google maps. its still not speedy but it does work on my phone now.

so there is something that was changed. but its still not like my droid, instant.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] deanp0219:
Did LG not release it or did T-Mobile just not sign off on it? I think that LG rushed this out in response to all of the complaints. Either that or it was an accident. Who the hell knows. It's definitely still unfinished though. Better, but not perfect.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wmm:
What I meant by "GPS driver still screwed up" is that it's clear that the data the driver is putting out is not what programs expect; GPS Test, for example, says that the S/N ratio of the satellites is supposed to be less than 100, and the values it's reporting are often over 200. It and GPS Status often show satellite positions that are below the horizon. It claims to be using AGPS data, but there's no way it can be doing so if it takes 1-2 minutes or more to get a fix; with the AGPS data it should be getting a "hot fix," i.e., 15 seconds or less, like you do when you use the GPS within a few minutes after its last fix. It obviously works "well enough" for Google Maps, etc., to use it, but it's clearly not "right."
[HTC Sensation] Drosh7:
Hi All,

I'm having problems with some widgets name labels. They appear in old no sense style, with a gray padded box around them. (see image, it's kinda hard to describe)

Is this a application issue because a widget is not the same as a shortcut? or is there anything i can do about this?

Got it in a couple of apps, GO SMS and SMS unread counter.

Thx in advance!

Example:
[HTC Sensation] GazaIan:
Widget =\= shortcut, even if the widget is a shortcut.
[HTC Sensation] Drosh7:
thx for your reply,

so basicly the developer is the only one who can make these changes.

I'm a Bell user and I just flashed Kenneth's 4.5.9.1 ROM. Everything is working fine except the reception. I can't get more than one bar, and data speeds are terrible. I'm using radio version N_01.92.00R -- is there a better radio that I can use?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schwiing:
N_01.77.30P is what I use on KP's rom. Works great.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongd:
I used this too and accidentally upgraded to the Orange radio after bricking my device. The baseband is N_01.100.00R and it seems to be working just as good, if not better. My voice comes across a lot more clearly.

I was thinking of switching back to N_01.77.30P but there's no discernible difference in network speeds or coverage. And voice quality is great.

[Atrix 4G General] jivester024:
Just got off the phone with AT&T, who informed me that the Atrix can recieve a sim unlock code on August 22nd. Just thought I would share....
[Atrix 4G General] arcticreaver:
just called att with 611. rep told me i can not get the sim unlock code until dec. 2011. what BS.
[Atrix 4G General] AllTheWay:
It's August 22nd. Trust me on that.
[Atrix 4G General] pukemon:
i've heard both. 8/22 and 12/22. also, want to mention 12/21/12, just because. anyways, my atrix is already sim unlocked, warranty voided, rooted and possibly debranded this weekend. :D
[Atrix 4G General] rush_ad:
i heard 6 months after the release date.

since the Atrix was released in USA on Feb 22, i would think the Aug 22 date sounds very reasonable.
[Atrix 4G General] pukemon:
Ive been given both answers from atnt. I dont know who to believe. I had to buy an unlock code for canada so its irrelevant to me now. I would think august 22 is the date thought.

I voided my warranty.
[Atrix 4G General] phobos512:
Six months after release OR six months after you started your account, whichever is later.
[Atrix 4G General] Jay_Bee:
Or just buy a SIM unlock code online for 10-15 bucks???

My Atrix was unlocked literally 3 hours after purchase.
[Atrix 4G General] exwannabe:
The ATT policy that I am familiar with is that once a model is available for SIM unlocking they will provide this to a customer who has either had the device for 3 months or has been a long term customer (whatever that might be). I have never heard of the 6 month number before wrt the individual.

To be clear, would that be 6 months from time of contract renewal for the phone, or 6 months from when the customer first joined ATT?

Anybody ever see these rules on the website?

[It's not like I can't afford $10, it is just that I do not like being jerked around]
[Atrix 4G General] bamastang:
Here is an Excerpt from the AT&T website:

AT&T will provide the Unlock Code for phones on wireless plans if:

Your wireless service has been active for 90 days or longer

Your account is current and in good standing

Your phone is not sold exclusively by us

Your phone's Unlock Code is available from the Manufacturer

The section in Red is the only part that bothers me... Does that mean in the USA or since it is sold internationally we can get the unlock code from AT&T?

website: HERE

I wonder if the Aug 22 date is the date that Motorola will release the codes to AT&T?
[Atrix 4G General] rush_ad:
Well only a week till we find out the truth about august 22nd.
[Atrix 4G General] rush_ad:
anyone tried to get the code?

do you have to be an att customer to request unlock code?
[Atrix 4G General] pukemon:
Today is the magic day. Maybe.

I voided my warranty.
[Atrix 4G General] rush_ad:
voided warranty? ATT will only need the IMEI to give you unlock code.
[Atrix 4G General] rush_ad:
I just got my unlock code from ATT, and I am NOT ATT customer.

Just went to http://www.att.com/esupport/ and at the bottom there is a place for online chat. Used that.

Just be honest and tell them that you're not a ATT customer but need the unlock code.

Whole thing took me 10-15 mins. And it is FREE.
[Atrix 4G General] pukemon:
Unlocked bootloader and sim unlocked. And no stock rom. But not free from Moto bs yet.

I voided my warranty.
[Atrix 4G General] phobos512:
Got my code. Used online chat. Very easy.
[Atrix 4G General] ChaosDimension:
Anybody know if you can unlock your phone and not have to be forced to do the data plan or does that online entail moving to another provider?
[Atrix 4G General] facetubespam:
I'd do it but don't have a non-AT&T sim card to test it out
[Atrix 4G General] stewartsoda:
I kept a t-mo sim when I switched just for that reason.

Just find someone with a t-mo phone and ask to borrow his/her sim for a sec. you can do it right in front of him/her.

[Atrix 4G General] UncleCemka:
Worked for me too through ATT chat.
[Atrix 4G General] b30sam:
Worked for mee too. Took less than 10-15 minutes.

Now to unlock the boot loader and put CM7 on it....
[Atrix 4G General] katinatez:
Its raining unlock codes!

I tried the chat at the bottom of the page too. Took maybe 15 minutes, told them I was planning a trip to Mexico which I am. Got the unlock code but have not used it the AT&T rep said I needed a non AT&T sim card to do this. Is this true? Do I need to go to my friends house to use their T-Mobile sim card?

link http://www.att.com/esupport/ now to update my signature unlocked sim, unlocked bootloader, blah, blah, blah. :D
[Atrix 4G General] dLo GSR:
yes, you need to put a non-ATT sim in for it to prompt for the code.

according to http://www.ehow.com/how_5824762_unlock-android-phone.html
[Atrix 4G General] liqn7:
Would someone from the US be kind enough to use the chat and unlock my phone for me if I gave them my IMEI?

I don't have a US cell number, thus they won't process my request :(

Would really be a massive help :)

Please let me know if you can help out.

I just unlocked my Atrix using the link above. They didn't ask for any account information other than the imei.

Easy day.
[Atrix 4G General] Note_E:
Just did it thru live chat. Quick and painless. Code worked and accepted my T Mo SIM.
[Atrix 4G General] katinatez:
Here to report the code I recieved from online chat worked. Invited some friends over for dinner that I knew had T-mobile cellphones. Then I asked politely to borrow their SIM card. Unlocked on the first try. :D :D

They did ask for my account information, just a bit of information that could help someone.

[Atrix 4G General] munchy_cool:
got mine , was asked for SSN last 4 digits and phone number and IMEI.
[Atrix 4G General] kompheak:
Im with tmobile... Just got off the phone with att rep... They did ask for info but i just told the truth... And they got the unlock code for me.
[Atrix 4G General] cnewsgrp:
Thanks all. Used online chat and got unlock code in 5 minutes. Very easy
[Atrix 4G General] vinay427:
Took me about five minutes with minimal hassle over At&t chat. I told them I would be visiting several countries next month (true story) and that their roaming rates were exorbitant. Next the representative just asked for account information and my IMEI, and I was set within a minute.

However, I can't unlock my phone while on CM7 (pre beta 2) yet because it doesn't ask for the unlock code for a different SIM. I believe it just doesn't connect to any other network. I'll need to restore back to stock or something based off of stock, unlock, and flash back.
[Atrix 4G General] pukemon:
It should work. I don't think cyan or any other rom has access to block that or any thing. If Moto did it the right way. Its usually a chip that is hard to access/hack unless you have the proper equipment. Its similar to an efuse kind of.

I voided my warranty.
[Atrix 4G General] liqn7:
Anyone else have to wait 3-5 days for their unlock code?

Finally managed to get through to someone who didn't need US details.

She said my phone was unlockable and she sent through a ticket request for the unlock code, which I'd get via email in 3-5 days.

Anyone else get this?
[Atrix 4G General] joachim123:
exactly the same position im in.. just need TMO sim. got my code. =]
[Atrix 4G General] Jnewell05:
That's a common response for 3 to 5 day waiting period. I got mine on the fifth day. But don't plan on ever needing it cause ATT is the best cell phone company in my area.

T mobile doesn't have 3g here. And Verizon and Sprint don't work at the house.

ATT still sucks but its better then the alternatives.
[Atrix 4G General] mrphil101:
signed into ATT site, went to MyPhone/Device and there is a link for unblock SIM Card. It gives an 8 digit PUK code. Is this the same as the topic here? Unblocking a Sim vs. unlocking for different carrier SIMS?
[Atrix 4G General] vinay427:
Not sure how true that is, because when I tried another SIM my Atrix didn't say anything (just didn't get service) and after some searching I found a thread about another device (Desire or similar, forgot) that had this issue with CM.

It's not an issue for me now anyway, because I still have some time until I go abroad.
[Atrix 4G General] vinay427:
No, it's not the same. That's for unlocking a locked SIM as you stated.
[Atrix 4G General] katinatez:
I was running Alien ROM when I unlocked my sim. Maybe you could flash Alien and roll with that until you unlock sim.
[Atrix 4G General] rjohnstone:
Good to know.

I got my unlock code via chat... very easy.

Will test it tonight when I get home.

EDIT: Dropped in my T-Mobile SIM, entered unlock code and viola... no more SIM lock.
[Atrix 4G General] Requiem_:
I Bought the Unlock code, but doesnt woks tried at 2 different webs, they refound my money.

At ATT page the representatives are Offline?
[Atrix 4G General] Fountainhead931:
Just got off the phone with my ATT guy, he got me the unlock code after verification of account and IMEI. Haven't tried it yet but I'm sure it'll work.

Took about 5 minutes for him to get the code. Must be nice.
[Atrix 4G General] kompheak:
I was told you only have five tries... after that your phone will be locked out
[Atrix 4G General] G-Man.:
This is true about the 5 tries, however it doesnt lock you out of your phone, it permantently locks your phone to AT&Ts network. I got my code today and used my old boost mobile deactivated sim to prompt for the unlock sim code. Worked first try. I have a buddy who tried to "guess his code" and he's now permanently locked to the AT&T network on his Atrix.
[Atrix 4G General] racerx83:
Please coulo someone help me?! I've tried two diferent websites and both provided me the same unlock Code, but it didn't work. Now my ultimate hope is this chat method you guys brought us. The problem is a have no at&t sim therefore no number and im no US resident.

please could a benevolent soul perfom these steps for me? I'll sure provide my imei and possibly a donation!

Thanks you all! !
[Atrix 4G General] BinaryFabric:
Called up Att and they said that my phone was unlockable, however that the code wasn't showing up in the system and that I need to wait up to a week for it to be sent to me. What a Gyp...

Cant wait
[Atrix 4G General] PeeCZa:
I can reccomend Live chat from ATT. I would unlock my Atrix, I haven't got any account at ATT anytime. I'm from Czech republic, I wasn't even in USA anytime :D

I wrote on Live chat, and after 5 minutes, i had unlocked...

(P.S.: THX katinatez!!! :) )
[Atrix 4G General] bubuphonik:
i called att and they gave me the unlock code rigth away

i told em i was gonna fly to spain in 2 weeks they took 10 min and gave me a code
[Atrix 4G General] racerx83:
How did you do that?? Could you send me the link, because the one i try to access is aways asking me to register or to enter att wireless number and password.

Thank you
[Atrix 4G General] sjmoreno:
Just got my unlock code from AT&T tech support

I just called the AT&T Wireless tech support number and spent about 20 minutes with them on the phone and at the end of it they gave me a unlock code which I just tried (using a buddy's T-Mobile SIM) and it unlocked on the first try.

The only thing is that the tech support person told me that AT&T has now implemented a new policy (like yesterday) where if you call about wanting the free unlock key because you want to be able to use the phone while traveling in europe they must add an international plan to your account (I got the cheapest one at $5.99/month) before their system will allow them to request the unlock code. The tech did tell me I could just call back tomorrow to cancel the mandatory international upgrade plan without any penalty.

So, in conclusion, I got the unlock code but I had to let them add an international plan to my account first.
[Atrix 4G General] appy:
Hi All,

I just tried calling ATT tech support. The rep was very helpful but since my phone is locked to T-Mobile UK when she entered the IMEI the AT&T unlock database returned 'Not found'.

Any idea how I can get around this?

Cheers.

[Atrix 4G General] stewartsoda:
I used the tech chat too to get it done with my first Atrix. It was no big deal.

I recently got a warranty replacement Atrix and they couldn't give me the code. They had to open a support case for it and I'm still waiting (I talked to them on Monday, they said it could take up to a week). I wonder if it's because the warranty phones are refurbs?
[Atrix 4G General] Blueangel180:
Ok so i tried to use the online chat app but it wants me to log in, which i cant because i dont have an AT&T account and i'm in india ATM.

And could one of you please get the unlock code if i supply my IMEI? will be a huge favor :)

[Atrix 4G General] ekerbuddyeker:
AT&T gave me the run around. they said they were able to give me the code UNTIL August 22nd 2011!!! So they couldnt give it to me. In the end I went to that Canadian Site above and got the code in 20 minutes for $10.
[Atrix 4G General] stewartsoda:
lol you got jacked. ATT couldn't give out the code until Aug 22. I'm pretty sure that was the day I called with my first Atrix to get mine.

[Atrix 4G General] xFrozen:
Wow! I used this method to unlock my Atrix for no reason (I have no intention of using it with another carrier).

Here's what I did, for anyone who wants to know:

1. Using live chat requires an AT&T account, so first I made an AT&T email address (free) and then made an AT&T account and linked the email to it.

2. Then I went to live chat. Selected "Help & Support" and then "Wireless." Then "International data." I entered my name and said Yes to being in the US.

3. Once connected, I simply said "Hey! I'd like to unlock my Motorola Atrix to use internationally." The agent asked me for my IMEI code, which I found by removing the battery, and looking at the sticker on the phone in that spot under the battery. The agent simply provided my my unlock code. I said thanks and the agent closed the chat.

Simple! Now to go try it out when I get a friend to let me use a T-mobile SIM.
[Atrix 4G General] haree87:
Actually I unlocked my atrix by live chat. you don't need to have at&t account to do that. also you can call them. with Skype its free. all I did was telling them that I got a phone from eBay which they described as unlocked. but when I am I'm Asia it asks for an unlock code. what should I do?

the third agent I chat was a very kind one and gave me the unlock code. you can check imei by dialling *#06#
