[Fascinate General] ccampos784:
I'm not sure if I'm right, but people seem to be having weird bugs appear in 3G low-signal areas, including random button presses and other weird behavior with CM7/MIUI. Maybe this is related to your problem? Does this happen in all areas or in low-signal areas only?
[Fascinate General] baron4406:
Might be the reason, it does seem to happen in low signal areas that's an interesting theory.
[Fascinate General] NoHolidaysForAHooker:
i've been on CM7 for a couple weeks and haven't noticed this problem, but interestingly i used to get it when i was using stock roms that were just debloated. i would notice my phone would randomly wake the screen to full brightness on it's own, decrease and then shut back off in a span of probably 15 seconds.
[Fascinate General] ccampos784:
I'm thinking that might be the reason, and when you turn off data you're disabling the weak 3G signal, preventing the bug from happening. For now, I believe no fix is available.

And as far as this being related to the stock ROMs, I believe that was a completely different issue. This is related to 3G signal strength. I've haven't seen this bug yet since I live in a coverage-saturated area, but the reason I know about this is that other people have been complaining about it in the CM7/MIUI threads.

I have the stock 4.5.9 gingerbread update on my AT&T ATRIX. However I am observing a terrible battery life. There are too many solutions in the forum to follow. Can someone direct me to the appropriate one? I am rooted and unlocked. I used the unlocked 4.5.9 sbf for upgrading from from Froyo to gingerbread 2.3.4
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neotekz:
there;s a lot of solutions because poor battery life can be cause by many things, you have to find out what is draining your battery. try calibrating first let it drain until your phone turns off and then if you have cwm install then wipe batterystats and then a full uninterrupted charge
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viamonte:
Try setting profiles in SetCPU and freezing apps with TitaniumBackup. Theres a topic for each of these two solutions.

I am having problems with my Atrix too. With my usage, I used to be able to get almost 3 days of battery life. Now it hardly lasts a day. I have checked pretty much all settings (sync, sleep) and all seems fine as far as I'm concerned. So I am having hard time trying to find what is causing this. The only suspect I have right now is wifi. I don't think wifi is sleeping even though I've selected "When screen turns off" in the sleep policy.

If you use Remote Desktop app or ScummVM (to play old games) you know that you can have a mouse pointer that you move with your finger and get much more precise in clicking small objects. i was wondering is there an app that can do that in the Android OS or at least browser with such option.

[HTC EVO 3D] ArticHood:
I live in Denmark (Europe), so the phone has not arrived yet, but when it does I am pretty sure it will be very expensive. The American version (Non Sprint) isn't that cheap either, but it is cheaper, so I have been thinking of buying one and then getting it unlocked.

Is this actually possible, when it doesn't have a SIM card? I found a website which will unlock the phone and I think actually give me the right network?

Website: htcimeiunlock.com/htc-evo-3d-unlock

Well this is just my question, is this actually possible?

Thanks and best regards

[HTC EVO 3D] AyyRayy:
Yes it can be flashed to various cdma carriers. I.e. boost, metro, cricket .... Etc
[HTC EVO 3D] raptoro07:
but the short answer is no because your European carrier is most likely gsm and therefore not compatible with the CDMA Sprint EVO 3D
[HTC EVO 3D] luckyzac:
Yeah...And anyways...Flashes to other CDMA networks is always messy....Hold out for the GSM version that is supposed to launch in Europe soon?

There are cdma carriers worldwide, not all are gsm

Or get the sensation. It's the EVO with everything but the 3D
[HTC EVO 3D] ArticHood:
I do not understand why it's unlock-able, when it's still not possible to use it in other countries that use GSM. Whats the use in unlocking it then? Sorry, but I know nothing about this stuff.
[HTC EVO 3D] luckyzac:
Well that could work too...But the 3vo still runs better than it...

Either way, you'd have to unlock the Sensation from Tmobile then.

Hi!

I'm trying to root my Defy (froyo - v2.2.2) using the z4root (v1.3.0) but I can not finish the operation due to an unexpected exit of the program.

The z4root quit after message "Acquiring root shell..." Nothing happen, just quit... No errors or any other message to understand something. In Application-Development, the USB debugging it's checked.

What can I to have a successful root access using the z4root software?

Thanks a lot in advance for any further replies.

and tried you root it with SUperOneClick app?
[General Questions and Answers] altostratos:
No, for the moment I wish to do it with z4root. My computer is not working for the next two or three days so I can not use it.

But tell me, rooted with SuperOneClick can be unrooted without replacing the ROM?
[General Questions and Answers] majko11293:
yes, it can..
[General Questions and Answers] tlongren:
altostratos, I'm having the same problems as you I think

I did temporary root and z4root was doing it's thing when it closed all of a sudden (no FC). I opened it back up and now all it does is FC.

I'm hesitant to try superoneclick, as it seems more complicated and I have no desire to screw my phone up. I'm new to the android community and am not real clear on the whole rooting thing. I know it gives root access to the device (I've got lots of experience with linux), but that's about all I know.

[G2 and Desire Z General] SuperDave81:
So I just got off the phone with customer service to try to change my plan from current Even More Plus for two lines with unlimited talk and text and 2gigs data per phone per month for $133.23, to the new Value plan that has unlimited talk and text and 2gigs data per phone for two lines for $99.98 per month.

Here's the catch for existing customers:

1. If you are currently in a contract, there is a $200 migration fee per line to get the new plan. That's $400 in my case.

2. Any line currently eligible for upgrade is no longer eligible, and you will pay full retail for any new phone in the future.

I decided to stick with my existing plan and pay the extra $30 per month and retain my eligibility for upgrades.

TL;DR - The new value plans are the equivalent to off contract pricing, with no eligibility for upgrades, but with a contract and migration fees.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mbrentrowe:
That's what I was afraid of. I would in the long run make back the migration fee but I have three lines and six hundred is too much right now.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chris7127:
Calling all Android Superheroes!!

I think I've done it. Turned my Charge into a paperweight. Was trying to flash the latest GummyCharged 1.91 package using Odin. It failed 3 times, but having read many accounts of similar failures I retried using different cables, different ports etc. After every "Fail" I unplugged the phone, rebooted, shut down Odin and started all over again.

After the last "Fail" message the phone simply stopped responding to anything. Won't boot, won't go into download mode, won't boot to recovery, doesn't show any sign of life when plugged into the wall.

All my reading about bricked Droids all seem to have some kind of responsiveness so don't seem to apply to my situation.

If anyone has suggestions or can point me in the direction of further resources I can research I'll be most grateful.

The worst part is going to be telling the wife when she asks what I'm doing.....

Thanks in advance for any / all help.

[Verizon Droid Charge] chris7127:
Thanks Sleek. I bought mine through Costco so I think I've also got the option to head back to Costco and get it swapped out. However, I've made my way through life believing that I should never surrender to the challenges presented by technology nor my own stupidity, so I'm pride-bound to at least try to make lemonade out of this situation.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chris7127:
Thanks anoninja - I'll keep those tips handy for the next flash attempt. And there WILL be further attempts....;)
[Verizon Droid Charge] theReDkoolAiD:
I had this happen to me on the second day I had my Charge. What happened was, I was flashing what I thought was the latest version of Humble EE4, but it wasn't, it an old .md5 file for my Epic. I didn't even look at the file name, I just looked at the file extension and it would not turn on, wouldn't show that it was charging (no pun), or any sign of life other then the phone would get hot due to something with the battery.

My solution was that I called VZ customer care and said something like, "For some reason my phone will not turn on. I plugged it last night and when I awoke this morning, it will not come on. I tried pulling the battery and it still does nothing. Is there anything you can do to help me?"

So the customer care lady tried to walk me trough a factory/data reset, and you guess it, "it didn't work." After another five minutes or so of her "trying" to help me, she said that they would replace it under the warranty and she overnight-ed me a new phone and I had it the next day. I did have to send the bricked phone back to VZ, so for good measure I ran an electromagnet over it, you know just in case.

You can try it that way or go into the carrier store and play dumb (like you really shouldn't have a smart phone) and have them replace under the warranty.

Good luck!!!

Take out battery, plug into rear usb ports (if you're on a tower. If you're on a laptop it doesn't really matter. If you want to know why just ask, otherwise just do it). Fire up Odin3 with administrative rights (right click, run as admin). Hold down the lower volume button and cross your fingers. If it still won't power up into download mode, your phone has tapped out and needs to be replaced.

Some times the phone looses power during the flashing process even though it's connected to the computer. Keep the battery in the phone while flashing to alleviate this issue.
[Verizon Droid Charge] piperat:
Do everything he says but odin recovery.tar its in the humble ee4 section. After that reboot phone go to settings, then development, and turn on usb debugging. It took me 2 days to figure this out. Did the same thing. From now on before you odin make sure usb debugging is enabled. Hope this helps.

Just checked that forum and realized recovery.tar is not there. If you want it just pm me and ill email it to you. Its a lifesaver in your situation.
[Verizon Droid Charge] foister82:
try this;

with battery out, keep the phone unplugged and hold down the volume down button and put the battery back in (not usb cable) and see if your phone responds to download mode this way. If it does, plug the phone in and see if odin now sees your device (with the battery still in).]

This worked for me in a similar situation.

So far the only known way is to play a fool and call warranty telling a lovely story that u were updating ur phone (OTA of course) then something went wrong in the middle of the process then... BOOM... ask for a replacement.

PPL must read mainly the RED lines... there are tons of ppl bricking their phone trying to use RSD to downgrade... RSD MUST BE UNINSTALLED from your machine so you will not put ur phone in dungerous situations....

RSD should be never used... it is a tool from Motorola and regular users shoudnt mess with it.

I think so many people have become used to flashing back on 4.1.26/4.1.57/4.1.83 that they maybe think they need to go back and do a clean install or something. The OTA shouldn't work on a modded phone, but maybe some people just think it's normal. We have been spoiled with what the devs have given us previously, and lots of people don't read I guess.

[HTC EVO 3D] k2buckley:
Yea I really miss that feature of CM. I highly doubt that anything like that will be an option until we get full S-off (hopefully soon!). I searched for any apps in the market that can remap the hard buttons, but my searching wasn't successful.

It's super convenient! I thought at first that it would be annoying too, by accidentally changing tracks. However, it needs to be a very deliberate long press of the volume rocker to change tracks. A quick press will still change the volume as normal. Comes in handy if you're out on a walk or something, and want to change tracks without taking the phone out of your pocket. Just reach down, find the volume rocker, and hold it down. So convenient and simple. I wish HTC had that feature built into Sense.
[HTC EVO 3D] luckyzac:
Come to think of it, an app could probably do this...If someone made it.
