[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bagel Bear:
There doesn't seem to be a thread that guides you to obtain only root. All talks of flashing and bootloaders and unlocking has confused me. I only want to gain root access.

I have a US AT&T Atrix that upgraded from the latest Froyo to Gingerbread 4.5.91 through usb cable to the Motorola update software because I wasn't getting it OTA for some reason. (Android Market doesn't detect an update either)

Can anyone help me gain root?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] misiek93:
If you were rooted before I believe you can run a script on your computer to give you root access back, though I am trying to find it myself and I've had no luck. I remember reading a few people have done this.

Don't take my word for it though...I could be wrong and I don't want to cause you harm
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bagel Bear:
I did not already have root.

Google How To: Motorola Atrix 4G Root .... Too new to post links. You should be on briefmobile dot com / motorola-atrix-4g-root
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bagel Bear:
Thanks for the reply but it looks like that article was posted back in February. I'm not sure that it is for the newest update.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnueliafnak:
Use the /preinstall method on brief mobile, that is a PROVEN root method with OTA GB.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deanr1977:
Go to Google & search for - oneclick root for (your device here)

Or use the search on xda for how to root your device

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccrows:
Wait oneclickroot caused an extra Superuser icon mess. Hence why people been using Gladroot and Gingerbreak for a much cleaner root.

Are both of those methods not working for AT&T users on 2.3.4?...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bagel Bear:
So I am to use these instructions from the brief mobile site?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] defnow:
yes, use those steps.

When you get to Step 6 ..after entering this command..

/preinstall/dosu

its going to look like you made an error. ignore it and just keeping typing in the commands
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bagel Bear:
When I get to the last step and type to type in the PATH... command I get:

Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_INSUFFICIENT_STORAGE]

Is the last step just trying installing Superuser or is there a little more to what it is doing?

EDIT: Thanks for the help. I just got Superuser from the market and all root seems to be fine. Thank again!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] defnow:
awesome. congrats.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccrows:
So does Gladroot and Gingerbreak still work on GB?...

http://www.droid-life.com/2011/07/2...-gingerbread-update-starts-rolling-out-today/

"If you are rooted and a DX2 owner, accepting this update might not be the best idea if you plan on being rooted ever again."
[Motorola Droid X2] Deleted member 4177996:
Anyone within the soak test group get an email corroborating this?
[Motorola Droid X2] niandra:
Haven't received anything yet today.
[Motorola Droid X2] cmanatam:
Ditto
[Motorola Droid X2] Steroid Droid:
No e-mail here hopefully we get to test the update today!!!
[Motorola Droid X2] SuBDivisions:
I JUST GOT... oh no, i didn't.

DDOSing the Vzw update server tho with my check every 7 seconds...
[Motorola Droid X2] SuBDivisions:
I did tho just UNFREEZE ALL in bloat freezer to make sure im ready to go when said update arrives.. and am checking using wifi.. cause i want it, like.. well.. now.
[Motorola Droid X2] chrislewissd:
will i need to sbf in order to get this update if im on a custom rom?
[Motorola Droid X2] MikeJ92YJ:
Some Have Said You Just Need The Bloat, But Which Bloat Programs Isn't Specified. I Told Another Guy SBF Is The Sure Fire Way Of Knowing You'll Get The Update.
[Motorola Droid X2] garywojdan81:
The only bloat I uninstalled were the games, golf & nfs I think. Thought they'd be safe cuz the os allowed their removal.
[Motorola Droid X2] rancifer:
I sbf'd last night.

half to ensure the update, and half to try it out and make sure sbf works correctly.

;)

edit:

I realize that the idea of this never being rooted is wildly unlikely, but we can go back to froyo with the sbf we have now correct?
[Motorola Droid X2] hackthis02:
Yes, you'll just have the reminder each boot that an update is available.
[Motorola Droid X2] marcbrigham:
If anyone gets the update please let everyone know. I have been checking every hour since the news was made available.

"

The above Tweet from Verizon's support staff confirms that the Gingerbread/Android 2.3 update may begin rolling out as early as today for the DroidX2. This newest version should be coming to your DroidX2 within the next few days, and it includes the same version of Blur that can be seen on the DROID3 and Bionic. It also includes a series of bug fixes to improve many aspects of your device. You can see Verizon's .pdf file detailing the update,

here

.

"Even though the official rollout starts today, and a select few will probably start getting it, from the status of the Motorola focus group's soak test, it's likely that the full mass rollout may not start until Friday."
[Motorola Droid X2] L2_n19h7m4r3:
Not if you don't agree to Moto's terms and agreement at setup... or if you just remove or freeze the account apps when you do get the sbf up and running.
[Motorola Droid X2] DAG425:
I SBF'ed and then rooted, installed recovery and made a a backup with all the bloat included... That way I can just use that backup, uninstall recovery and unroot and be good to go...
[Motorola Droid X2] marcbrigham:
Matt from the motorola forums said:

So, the tweet actually says "Ginger bread is being pushed out systematically to our Droid X2 customers starting today."

"I think the key words are "pushed," "systematically," and "starting." To me that means you won't necessarily be able to pull it, since it says push. Systematically suggests that as usual, it will start small. And there are still a lot of hours left in the day for it to start."

[Motorola Droid X2] SwiftLegend:
So it's probably a good idea to SBF to stock or restore a stock backup to get the update? Not really caring about root now, I just want to see if Gingerbread makes this any faster. That will be the thing deciding whether I keep this or sell it and get the SGS2
[Motorola Droid X2] BelacNongaw:
I would be careful and not count on this. The Atrix one that just came out has a new bootloader and when people try to sbf to froyo it HARD bricks their phones. Go google and checkout atrix forums to see for yourself. Very serious. We don't know for sure at this time one way or the other how it will go with the x2.
[Motorola Droid X2] slowz3r:
Having never owned a device that had a bunch of bloatware on it or any Motorola smart phone, is it recommended to unroot/sbf if all i have done is freeze the recommended apps?

Wouldnt an OTA just rewrite everything I did anyways so it wouldnt matter?
[Motorola Droid X2] marcbrigham:
I received an email from the soak test about 30 min ago. Check your email guys
[Motorola Droid X2] :
If all you did is freeze apps you should be able to just defrost them and be fine. If you are going to take the ota you might as well use gingerbreak to unroot after you have defrosted your apps. Depending on how the update works, its possible you would end up with the superuser app still in your app drawer non functional with no way to get rid of it.
[Motorola Droid X2] tryder:
an email with a download link or an email to join the soak test
[Motorola Droid X2] colonel187:
I just read an article that the soak test has been over for a while. And the roll out is confirmed
[Motorola Droid X2] ericerk:
Link it up bro
[Motorola Droid X2] LordRalh3:
Dont believe everything you read man, obviouslly the article was wrong.
[Motorola Droid X2] SuBDivisions:
I got the soak test email now as well as of 6:40pm EST. They are to begin the test, and then a 2 day waiting period after.

This is real, and what is happening. Thats all i will say.
[Motorola Droid X2] colonel187:
Riddle me this. Why would the soak test being going on at the same time as official roll out?
[Motorola Droid X2] ericerk:
hahahahaahahahahhah true
[Motorola Droid X2] cybrwulf:
Its rolling now. Just updated! Good luck kids.... I couldn't grab the update, so hopefully someone else does.

Off to play now!
[Motorola Droid X2] juhde:
It's not. This is the soak test now, official roll out will *probably* be monday ish. Unless testers report that the update makes their phone melt or some other catastrophic malfunction.

Rule of thumb for motorola updates. soak test about 2k phones, wait 2-5 days and if nothing blows up/melts/becomes self aware and tries to kill humanity, then you start rolling out the "official" update to everyone.

Hi,

I've searched the forum and have been trying cache cleaners since there's less memory left after uninstalling an app compared to before its installation.

Does anyone know how android is working when it is installing / uninstalling apps / games?

If I install a game >> --- :) --- :mad: --- :( --- :confused: --- :cool: --- :) >> and then uninstall it, what is being left? Or isn't there anything left, except cache that can be cleaned?

How to properly uninstall an app / game to get rid of everything?

Best regards.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
Depends on the program - it may leave some data on the SD Card, Dalvik-Cache.
[Defy General] Carnivoro:
Flash a Froyo ROM.

wipe all (data/cache/Davilk)

Test all works

Root your defy

Install 2d_init

Reboot twice (i dont know its necesary yet)

wipe all (its no necesary but for me is the only way works ok finaly the CM7)

Go into clockwork recovery. After reboot wait until led go blue then push vol down

Install zip from memory card (You must copy on a RCO o RC1)

Reboot

Test your phone

If you want, use same way for install nigthlys

sorry for my english

good look
[EVO 4G General] pulazki:
So i've been making multiple posts on here regarding the fact that i have been unable to receive text messages for the past week on my native messaging app and the only way i can get them is thru google voice. Well i was never able to fix that and last night i plugged my phone into the charger and went to sleep, everything working fine.. I guess at 7am my girlfriend turned my alarm off on my phone and it was working fine, then around 8:15am i woke up to find my EVO off.. So at first i figured well i must not have put the charger all the way in and it died, so i put it back onto the charger and realized the light was not coming on at all and the EVO wasn't turning on, I tried another charger and my car charger and none of them get the LED light on the front to turn on like it normally does when charging, and i cannot get my EVO to turn on at all now, i get nothing. What do you guys think could have happened? It's just dead, the charger doesn't work or even turn the LED light orange, and i can't get it to turn on at all, just nothing. Any Ideas? I've been dreading having to get an insurance phone because of the fact it cannot be rooted and i run MIUI on my phone, so i was just living with the google voice text issue, but i had to go ahead and file my claim this morning because my phone wont even come on now.. The thing that scares me is that if HTC is able to get my phone to turn on, they're going to find out that i rooted it and it's running MIUI? Once they ship my insurance phone and i send my rooted phone back in, is there anything they can do?
[EVO 4G General] bcarter2000:
Probably a dead battery

Edit: As in, will no longer work, not just depleted of charge. When you get the replacement switch out batteries, and see if it works.

They will not do anything to your account. Sprint now works on rooted phones, as long as it's not a software issue. Besides it's not like you are going to be able to root the replacement anyway.
[EVO 4G General] pulazki:
What would cause the battery to just die and not charge ? and wouldn't the charger still get the orange LED light to come on ?
[EVO 4G General] MaxCarnage:
:mad: :(

Looking at this thing running the stock OS makes me sad. Still such a nice phone, though.
[EVO 4G General] jplowamn:
When you made your insurance claim you should have said it was lost. $100 for a new phone and they won't see your rooted one.
[EVO 4G General] MaxCarnage:
They really don't care if it's rooted; the only reason they want the phones back is so that they can try and refurb them.
[Nexus S General] cardsfan01:
I sent an email to Dan Hesse (no im not gullable enough to think he is actually going to read it) asking why they took away the tethering feature with this update. I konw most of you are rooted here and this doesn't affect you but this was a big deal. I bought this phone for this reason and now it is gone, how is that legal? Anyone else want to get a class action lawsuit going?
[Nexus S General] Enhanced:
Free tethering wasn't a feature you signed onto when you signed your contract. It was a nice little extra that Android provided which is clearly not what the carriers wanted and for which they now took away.
[Nexus S General] ryno502:
Did you see that Sprint just had a net loss of almost 850 million dollars... Despite a GAIN of 1 million subscribers. They have to do something lol.
[Nexus S General] cchase231:
I was pissed about that as well, mostly because when I bought the phone the rep said it was a feature of the phone and since google was in charge of updates that sprint couldn't take it away. However, in another thread someone pointed out to me that tethering is an explicit violation of the terms of service agreement and the phone is subsidized by sprint so they are not really doing anything that you could sue them about. It is disappointing, but at least getting it back is easy through rooting.
[Nexus S General] DirtyShroomz:
Is this thread serious?
[Nexus S General] hellcatt:
the tethering app itself is there and still works, it does what the app is supposed to do. sprint how ever just disabled the connection on their end to accounts that dont have the add on........which is totally their right to do. while the app comes with the phone is free no one ever said the service was included
[Nexus S General] LordLugard:
More than 600,000 of those were in the prepaid sector. They actually had a net loss of more than 100,000 in the post paid sector.
[Nexus S General] zorak950:
With Sprint I sort of understand the legitimacy of wanting to charge extra for tethering, since they have true unlimited data and people who tether regularly can use an assload of bandwidth. But the other carriers all cap their data plans and charge extra for tethering. That is bullcrap.
[Nexus S General] derekwilkinson:
Just root your phone and install tether and stop complaining... it takes 5 seconds.
[Nexus S General] shabbypenguin:
i dont use the tether and dont have any plans to, i agree that using the rooted one is all too easy (its what 99% of teh rest of the android population have to do).

BUT

i do believe its rather annoying that the nexus 1 came and went with free tethering, the nexus s is on so many different carriers domestic and international.. yet sprint is the first one to throw up a fit about tethering. not saying that its wrong for them to, just feeling like a red headed stepchild of the nexus s family.
[Nexus S General] jdh10475:
The free tether was not advertised as being free it was never writter or expressed. You just got a free bonus. IMO. Also the free tether was supposed to be remove on the update that occurred right after the phone was launched and it wasn't. I suggest rooting your phone its easy with an untold amount of benefits.
[Nexus S General] teshxx:
Does the removal of free tethering constitute as change in contract ? I would love to get out of my contract without penalty.
[Nexus S General] BrianDigital:
wow I love how people get up on a soapbox and complain without research first.

Free tethering was never offically free from sprint. So you want to cancel your contract/send emails/get red in the face over something that most people already knew.

get over it there are ways around these things which for the most part why we are all here to enhance our phones.
[Nexus S General] DirtyShroomz:
Read your contract and let me know if you see free tethering in there
[Nexus S General] The111:
I thought the 2.3.5 update is what disable it? If so, that is hardly "on their end." It's on our end, inside our own hardware which we purchased.

Unless I am mistaken and they rolled out a network change at the exact same moment as a software change. But if they were magically blocking tethering from their end... then wouldn't it block our rooted tethering too?

I agree it's not the end of the world and rooted tether is easy. But I think it might be inaccurate to say an update to our phones is happening on their end.
[Nexus S General] The111:
If the purchase contract to my car said I couldn't drive it while chewing gum, I'd walk out of the dealer. If the purchase contracts for ALL cars said that, I'd buy one of them and then go home and break the terms.

Just because it's in the contract doesn't mean it is right. We pay for a DATA service to a piece of hardware. What we do with data that has been fed into that device is our own decision, morally and logically. Sprint does not govern the airwaves in my own house that originate from a piece of hardware I own.

In reality it's not a big deal, but in principle it is 100% wrong.
[Nexus S General] seezar:
The DATA service to use the phone as a wireless hotspot/tether is an extra $29.99, whether we agree with that or not. If you don't think a contract is right then you don't sign it/use the service.
[Nexus S General] BrianDigital:
Your fight is with congress. Verizon/at&t/comcast/etc they lobbied pretty hard so that net neutrality not be on wireless lines. So the government has allowed from now and out what can be defined as a data over wireless. So what if sprint wants to charge you extra on your contract for a smartphone when you want to use their network for serving up data for laptops/some use for Xbox live and stuff if it is needed so badly on the users end to have mobile data well.

So think about if sprint were to allow free tethering on all phones, well businesses would flock to them for company plans to cut costs, and the flocks of data whores out there that love to rack up data on their phones. Our network would blow, congestion please.

Sprint and wireless telcos don't govern all the airwaves in your own house just the frequencies they use to provide you with a service which at signing is for that piece of hardware you bought from them, then activated that hardware on their network.

This by no means is me getting angry with you but hopefully more people will read this and look this up and let the information flow out. Our government is to blame allowing this to happen. By allowing them to define mobile data is why we have to pay the most expensive data rates for texting and such.

Now imagine this verizon which is new kinda to home tv and high speed fiber to the home. Perhaps they use some of the lte network to start providing tv and home internet. Now they would have complete control over how you watch and your internet. Maybe they have to throttle your HD channels cause you've been watching to much HBO movies. Why not they will all tell you Netflix kills their backend but watching vod has no strain on the network.....I've been ranting for too long sorry
[Nexus S General] The111:
Agreed 100%, but the issue is traffic, not tethering. If they want to limit traffic or introduce a tiered plan, that is fine (it might piss me off, but it is a rational right they have). It is rational to expect to pay per amount of data streamed to my device. But it is not rational to tell me what to do with data received on my end.

Replace DATA with WATER. If I pay the city for x amount of water per month, once it arrives on my doorstep, can they charge me more if I add plumbing in my house that transports it to the backyard, or my basement? Or install an extra faucet in a guest bedroom?
[Nexus S General] The111:
Please see my example above about water.

If every single water company in town told you it was $50 per month to get 200 gallons of water piped to your house, but there would be a $30 surcharge (for the same amount) if you had more than 2 faucets in your house, would you:

(a) Tell them about all 4 of your faucets and pay $80

(b) Tell them you have 2 faucets and pay $50

If (a), then I question your thought processes. Common wisdom (in my mind at least) is that it is a citizen's duty to disobey unjust rules. Yes, I am being overdramatic here, and no a contract from Sprint is not a law. But it leans on the law (as the post above mentions), and ALL providers lean on that same unjust law...
[Nexus S General] ZeroCool84:
You signed and agreed the terms of the contact. You signed to use the data on the specific phone in a specific way, you didn't sign up for tethering. I don't know why there is any confusion. Your water analogy does not work at all.
[Nexus S General] The111:
Could you please explain why it doesn't work then?

If a water contract specified how you could use the water (once it arrived at your house), it would be correctly called unfair. If all water contracts specified that, you would be forced to choose between no water, breaking your contract, or paying an unfair premium to use your water as you wish.

The only flaw in my analogy is that water is necessary for life, while data is not.

Besides, we all know the REAL problem they have with tethering is the extra bandwidth. That is their own fault, for having an unlimited bandwidth plan (as much as I enjoy mine). If you paid for what you used (as you do with water), none of this would be an issue.
[Nexus S General] BrianDigital:
Your comparing apples to oranges. Two different things water is regulated by the government and your smartphone is a luxury.

Not understanding that when you sign a contract for a smart phone and being confused when you can't pump that data out for home network. Get a mifi, you can use examples that make it seem like sprint is the devil. But your wrong.
[Nexus S General] teshxx:
