[Atrix 4G General] CaelanT:
Because technically, if they do not warn you that you can ruin your device by flashing to an earlier version, you have a case to sue them if you so choose to go that route. It's their failure to secure the software, updates, and upgrades they have which allows people to flash something you say they should not have, but is freely available to download through software update. Please do not spout what you hear from other people and think this makes you knowledgeable in any way. There are many legal implications with Moto and AT&T not disclosing what their updates/upgrades will or will not do, especially when they say "you will have unlock ability", then switch that at release with no warning, or for any number of reasons.

I can see you have a large contribution to this community by the grand sum of 5 posts which you have.

Now, I am trying to help some of the people out here who were obviously stupid enough to blindly flash an update released to them without first consulting XDA, because of course when you buy the Atrix it tells you to consult XDA on any matters relating to the Atrix!

Go back to ebay where you belong chuck!

BTW..........yes, I am very serious!
[Atrix 4G General] sservati:
So the boot loader on the OTA is still Locked?!!!
[Atrix 4G General] y2whisper:
yeah you could try that argument. they could give you the run around that you flashed using stuff not from their site or from their customer service portal and there could be some line in the warranty that would cover their ass from that stuff. but hey, worth a shot.
[Atrix 4G General] jrelson:
I updated to ota 4.5.9.1 during the soak and there was a big warning on the website, but nothing that I remember seeing when I downloaded and installed the software. They know the risk obviously. Surprised they wouldn't cover their behind during the install.
[Atrix 4G General] CaelanT:
Yes it is.

[Atrix 4G General] ebaychuck:
As many people have said.. Motorola does not give you any offical path to unlock your bootloader and flash a previous version. People like XDA do.

I have no problem with putting a custom Rom on my phone. I've hacked every device since my first Windows CE pda. The problem I have is with people like you that want to Sue Motorola because they... What? Told you to unlock your bootloader and try to flash unsupported software? No, they didn't.

Oh, and by the way please show me where you got the Official Motorola Atrix Unlock from.
[Atrix 4G General] ccrows:
The unlocked Bootloader is one thing, the fact that some users are bricking their phones after using OTA's is another.

Granted the 0X1000 is coming more from XDA users who have flashed, but Motorola needs to embrace the Android community better.

I'm not a fanboy of any company by any means, currently I own both a SGS and an Atrix.

^ With that said, Motorola needs to be a little more like Samsung.

* Paying attention to forums like XDA would be a start. Giving phones for free to developers would be another. (Samsung had no problem doing this).

*Getting rid of the bootloader FOREVER would also be in their best interest.

* Finally not forcing MotoBlur accounts down people's throats would be a friendlier approach as well.

Android consumers have helped Motorola get back in the game.

It's time for Motorola to repay the favor and start treating Android like "Android", and not like an iPhone...
[Atrix 4G General] ccrows:
From what I've been reading, yes... :(
[Atrix 4G General] ebaychuck:
Yeah, it would be nice if they'd support their more advanced users like Samsung and HTC have been doing. It seems like they are about to make some kind of change with Motoblur so maybe they'll ease up on the requirement to use it.
[Atrix 4G General] ccrows:
I've seen the Motoblur "improvements", but you still need an account, which is BS. Plus its a waste of time to freeze things in TiBU.

Between the last OTA that bricked many phones and the current Motoblur BS, I hope we can get Vanilla Gingerbread on this device more than ever. This will definitely be my last Motoblur phone I ever purchase.

Don't get me wrong I like Motorola a lot, but I also like to have a drama free phone...

I have a question for everyone that upgraded to GB.

After reading about the bugs in GB (like the "battery jumping issue" for instance) -

If you "could" go back to Froyo's latest build, would you do it or are you happier with the current GB?... :confused:
[Atrix 4G General] ebaychuck:
Nah.

Even with the few problems i'm enjoying having GB.. I guess I just like something new to look at.

I only miss a few things.

- The Happenings page that used to be attached to contacts. It was nice to be able to see the last post a friend made when calling them.

- Access control in Wireless Tether. (I can't remember if it worked on the Atrix or just my previous phone)

- Working Wired Tether..

- Setting review time on the camera.

Can sombody tell me the name of the clock widget :)

Red,

It looks very much like Pandahome with a specific theme applied which so far I haven't been able to find.

Hope this helps:D

EDIT: After further research I think it is probably Make Your Clock Widget which is available free on Android Market

[HTC EVO 3D] berardi:
I'm trying to play music and run Google Maps Navigation simultaneously. On the Evo 4G, I could do this no problem. On this phone now everytime it is supposed to speak directions, it mutes music, but does not say the direction - it is either muted or extremely low volume. I should also mention I am using a custom voice - SVOX Classic.

Anyone else experience this or find a fix?

Thanks!
[HTC EVO 3D] aimbdd:
Did you turn the nab volume all the way up?

Edit: Just tried it and it works fine for me.
[HTC EVO 3D] berardi:
Yeah the navigation volume is on full. I even tried turning up the volume in the SVOX app.

Just curious are you using a custom voice or the built in?
[HTC EVO 3D] cruise350:
SOunds like you answered your on question, its the svox and not the 3do. Uninstall and you should be fine.
[HTC EVO 3D] berardi:
Obviously I am trying to get the two to work together. I'm sure I'm not the only one who uses a custom voice.

Still looking for other people's experiences with SVOX Google Maps, and Music
[HTC EVO 3D] cruise350:
Then you should change your title to svox and music don't work together because there are no problems with Google Navigation and music.
[HTC EVO 3D] berardi:
Just because you haven't had the problem or even many users haven't had the problem does not mean the issue doesn't exist. For example: on EVO 4G I used Google Navigation with SVOX without a single problem. I will try with the default PICO TTS to confirm whether or not it is specific to SVOX next time I have a chance.

I have a strong feeling it is related to the stock software. I have also noticed poor aac audio quality in Xiialive using the stock system codec but as soon as I switch to Xiialive internal engine, it works perfectly. This leads me to believe there is some kind of issue with the audio codecs in stock Rom.

Not a monster of a deal but would be cool to resolve.
[HTC EVO 3D] berardi:
I have just confirmed the problem is not exclusive to SVOX. I am experiencing the same result with the standard tts. I am also using it over Bluetooth. All of this worked perfect on OG Evo.

Anyone with actual ideas and not just complaints about my thread?
[HTC EVO 3D] makrotonik:
This is a known issue with gingerbread and the sat nav application. I'm on my phone now, but if you do a search you will find several bugs open with Google. Unfortunately I don't think there is a fix yet. even happens on under gb and cm7 phones including the updated 4g.
[HTC EVO 3D] UCChemE05:
I'm having the same issue with with stock maps, PowerAmp and latest MikG through Bluetooth or 3.5mm Jack. Navigation works fine until player is started.

/edit

Whoops just noticed this ie the 3D forum... I'm running the 4G
[HTC EVO 3D] exhilaration:
Berardi, please see this thread I just started. It looks like it's a bug.
[HTC EVO 3D] MarkGbe:
Anyway to make this more known? Maybe blast @google @androiddev @googlemobile with tweets or message them on facebook?

This is a pretty serious issue IMO. I can't believe more people don't complain bout this.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chch:
I am looking at buying an Arc, Neo or Ray but I need Smart Dialling.

I am new to Android. Do I need to be worried about the lack of smart dialling on the Xperia or can I just download a new dialler?

If I install a new dialler then will it launch from the standard Xperia UI dialler button or will I have to launch it like an app?

Are all 3rd party Smart Diallers pretty much universal in Android or would I need to ensure I got one that worked for the Xperia? (it is a slightly odd resolution).

Anyone running the standard ROM but with a custom Dialler? Which one?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chch:
Thanks for the replies :)

It turns out that the above devices have text search for contacts and SMS. So even though it is oddly missing from the dialler I guess you can achieve the same result from contacts (just without the convenient hardware button).
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jacob Lund:
Try Go Contacts

I have been using Go Contacts for a while and it seems to be very stable and it work really well with my arc.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vu2ikl:
There are plenty of dialer available in market. Dialer one and go dialer are my favorite.

You will have to launch it like an app. If you use go launcher..you can even assign dialer app to standard icon.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daveybaby:
Dialer One used to be the best T9 dialler, but it's become bloated and asks for way too many permissions.

I now use dialer2, which is fast, small and works perfectly well on my Arc (as does every other app i've tried - android apps tend to be pretty resolution agnostic).

The standard Xperia button is just a shortcut which launches an app. You can easily swap out shortcuts in the dockbar in the Xperia UI just by drag&drop, so it's a piece of cake to replace it.

Once you install a 3rd party dialer, any other apps which require a dialer will cause a pop-up screen to appear asking you to choose between the Xperia's stock dialer and the new 3rd party one. You can choose one of these to be the default and that will stop the popup from recurring.

hi i have have installed many different roms, hboots, radios and have also used alpha rev and unrevoked to on my desire. i want to start again because the phone isnt working well now and i can no longer install a new recovery img. i have found a rom i like which is miui beta. so i want to unroot the device get it back to stock and start again however im getting bootloader version error when using the RUU.

hboot - 0.80.0000

radio - 5.14.05.17

also to note after using ruu which hasn't fully completed i now have S-on when i had s-off and i am not afraid of rebooting or turning of the device in case of bricking it.

can anyone help thanks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UsManyDead:
Hi.

Are you trying to run the latest RUU WWE 2.29.405.5? This should give you no problems, unless you have a custom HBOOT, which I can't see.

Try running the PB99IMG.zip directly from SD Card. Here it is how to extract the PB99IMG.zip from the RUU: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=880268 -2nd post.

Please explain a little more about what you have did to the phone till now (custom HBOOT?).

We have to take it slowly.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wolfgang9_9:
i tried using this version -

RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed.exe

and regards to the hboot i have used alpha rev so i dont know if that classes as a custom hboot or not.

and thanks for the quick reply
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UsManyDead:
Hi.

Well there's the problem the version of RUU is way too old (1.21.405.2 <-> 2.29.405.5). Try running the latest RUU and run it from bootloader (PB99IMG.zip).

If you have used alpharev only to S-OFF but not to flash HBOOT's then there is no problem. Just run the latest RUU and it will be all over.

Please post the result.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wolfgang9_9:
okay so i use the ruu and make a pb99img, mount the usb storage place it on the phone reboot and it should work. do i need a gold card tho to do this?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UsManyDead:
Yes.

1. Extract the PB99IMG.zip and put it on root of SD Card.

2. Reboot in bootloader (Volume-Down + Power)

3. It will automatically load the img and ask you if you want to install

4. Check Yes and follow onscreen progress.

5. Wait untill it finnishes

6. I think it will reboot itself, if not scroll down to the Reboot obtion and press Power button to select.

About the gold card:

You need a gold card only if you have a branded phone.

If you do need to create a gold card try this guide:

Or to create a gold card in Linux(without using the phone): http://www.nazriawang.com/2010/04/how-to-create-goldcard-with-ubuntu.html

No method available for Windows only.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wolfgang9_9:
omg thank you soo much it worked and no need for a gold card either so now i can finally start again :D thanks again ever so much helped alot.

*** sorry, didnt know there is an i9000 forum, already reposted there, sorry again

hello all

I am using the I9000 international version

official rom 2.3.3 I9000ZSJV6

I tried installing the new voodoo and turns out there is the signature problem, realizing is the recovery 3e which is causing it.

so now I wonder if I can still install it through Odin? Just select the PDA and starts it?

Will I lost any data in my phone? I already have pictures contacts and stuffs backup, but just don't want to lose those installed applications.

Thank you very much for answering, helping and even just reading it!

Appreciate it, Thank you.

p.s. got another question in flashing roms, so do i also lost all data by flashing a new rom?

Hey all.. am definitely a noob.. i was just throttle, i have a mytouch 4g(unlimited everything) so they say. they shouldve throttle my text msg usage rather than my hsdpa.. isnt there a / an easier way to unthrottle my data speed maybe with an app or doing something else.. i read up on the steps.. From the original listed steps posted it says you have to be unthrottle before you apply the change.. so it wouldnt make sense to try it.. my phone isn't rooted yet.. i was thinking about using visionary+... please, please help in anyway possible... at least something fairly easy... thanks
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lalab0y:
first things first, when does the new billing cycle start? if it's just a few days away, you may not want to dive into rooting if you are not familiar with it..

secondly, if you read the throttling thread, you will see a few had success of getting unthrottled after being throttled. Cant confirm this, but I would say worth the try..
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jr_718:
New billing cycle start every 7th of the month....its just frustrating when i listen to Pandora or trying to download something, its soooo slow.. especially Pandora... i mean i was kinda embarrassed, because at my job i hooked up my phone to the speaker so when all can listen to music instead of repeated songs from radio... but it just started cutting the songs, slowing down and skipping... and yes i do have Pandora One...even if i cant do the service.jar mod, if i could just modify my phone a little and do get some data boost that would be lovely................

however, i also tried using visionary to temp root my phone and root explorer to modify the "build.prop" still no luck... but funny after changing the values after i reboot the numbers go back to the same....just frustrated....

Thanks for your response......:)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jr_718:
And a funny thing happened last billing cycle, when i was throttled down, A/(one) day before the new cycle started i was unthrottled, but what i did was something somebody did, the switched to edge(gsm) for a day or so, then switched back to gsm/wcdma auto.. and claimed it worked for them...i tried for about 2days and i did a speed test, found out my speed was unthrottled( and this was a day before my new billing cycle started)..
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QUIETLYloud:
The easiest thing to do would be to upgrade your data package, I'm currently on a 10 gig/month plan. Also, store some music to your phone and play from that.

Lastly, use wifi when you can.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jr_718:
when you was throttled, did your speed get very low.. say 56k or you had some improvement?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Staplerz83:
no improvement just did a speed test I'm at 31kbps
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jr_718:
I don't care what anyone say.. when they throttle you.. edge, 3g, 4g.. all gets throttled.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bupahs:
Stop using so much data is a good way not to be throttled. wifi is an option as well.

If you are sucking so much data that you use the 5gigs they give you a month then honestly you deserve to be throttled back. Trying to bypass the throttle will led to caps and more cost in the end.

Just my two cents.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jr_718:
Are you kidding me.. compare to someone in this forum who actually used 40+gb of data in a matter of one billing cycle and has 5gb unlimited plan..lol...the most I've ever used is 9gb of data...shoot. if am paying for unlimited I shouldn't be throttle.. just waiting for my contract to be over maybe.. just maybe ill switch to sprint..
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keji13:
you think it was the process that unthrottled you or is it a possibility they unthrottled you early? cause i need this i get throttled every month! lol last billing cycle idk what happened if they forgot me or something but i spent the whole billing cycle and half of the new one throttled i had to call for them to refresh it
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keji13:
yea im thinking same right now Sprint is the only one that gives true unlimited service but their rates are ridiculous. Im guessing tmobile got alot of complaints regarding their use of the word unlimited n leaving out the detail that its not really unlimited cause in the new commercial the guy who talks fast kinda like the fine print mentions the throttle after 2gb or 5gb of data its 20$ extra for 5gb. they got a new plan tho 49.99 2 lines unlimited everything might wanna look into it not sure if its only for first time customers or not but if its not im all on it.

Hi,

on my T-Mobile branded Desire HD AND on my GFs T-Mobile branded Sensation we can only see the Dashboard when logging in to htcsense.com.

On the unbranded Desire Z of my colleague i see way more and could edit the phonbook, see the sms and so on.

HTC sais that there is no differrence in htcsense.com between branded and unbranded phones but i don't think so.

Is it right that htcsense.com is only complete when you own a unbranded phone?
