[Atrix 4G General] hospadam:
I have an Atrix running stock 2.3.4 on AT&T in the US. In the coming months, I'll be traveling to europe for a few weeks. I'd love to be able to take my phone and just buy a temp SIM while I'm over there.

I know the process of removing the AT&T-only restriction is called unlocking - is that the same as unlocking the baseband? If not - where can I find a guide to unlock it for international use?

Also - will the Atrix even work (I'm guess does it even have the right cellular bands for Europe?) Thanks in advance!
[Atrix 4G General] hamzer11:
I used my Atrix recently in Asia and the middle east. Worked like a charm with local sims. I paid like $15 to blowfish unlocks on ebay and followed the instruction to unlock. When you put the new SIM in it will ask for the motoblur login so make sure you know it. I thought it would need to activate over wifi or something with motoblur but just entering my already registered account was good enough. Hope this helps.
[Atrix 4G General] hospadam:
Gotcha. So the "unlocks" are two different things. I'll check out ebay if that seems to be the easiest way to get the code? Thanks!

Try here :D

[Atrix 4G General] Pat123:
Yes, essentially you have to unlock your baseband which can be done through an unlock code. The unlock which we have for Atrix out here is bootloader unlock, not baseband unlock!

Is there an app that will allow me to stream media to my Sony Bravia tv wirelessly?

If so, that would be a major score.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willeanw:
I am step closer thanks to you, i researched the bootloader brick and this is what i found:

1. Put battery back in

2. Press and hold Volume Up + Home Key

3. Continue holding those buttons and then press and hold power.

4. When you see the logo pop up release power ONLY

5. Keep holding two buttons from step 2 until you enter recovery mode

i am back in download mode thanks to you, but my odin gets stuck at either

factory.fs and shuts off, or cache.fs and gets stuck.

The button combination is hard to get werkin each time. Just don't give up try'em all, and keep trying. If you get tired of trying and just wish there was a quicker error-proof way then buy a jig. Good luck!:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tersian:
Hi, could anyone please help me by either post or upload their "default.prop" file located under root directory??

Model: i9100

Rom: Lite'ning Rom 5.0 based on XXKG6

Kernel: Ninphetamine-2.0.5

STORY:

I have accidentally deleted "default.prop" file, under root directory. (not /system)

Realising my mistake, I created a new file, named it "default.prop", hoping that the system will fill it in with lines it had.

Now all I have in the file are these;

#

# ADDITIONAL_DEFAULT_PROPERTIES

#

ro.secure=0

ro.allow.mock.location=0

ro.debuggable=1

persist.service.adb.enable=1

I have never opened the file before to see what was in there. As I had no other Galaxy S2 to compare with, I wasn't sure if these lines were all the file originally contained. I have tried reflashing the entire rom, and also restoring previous NAND backup, but none of those seemed to return the "default.prop" file into its original state.

After frantic searching, I found that the original galaxy s had those lines as well;

ro.url.legal=http://www.google.com/intl/%s/mobile/android/basic/phone-legal.html

ro.url.legal.android_privacy=http://www.google.com/intl/%s/mobile/android/basic/privacy.html

ro.com.google.locationfeatures=1

ro.setupwizard.mode=DISABLED

ro.com.google.clientidbase=android-samsung

ro.com.google.clientidbase.yt=android-samsung

ro.com.google.clientidbase.am=android-samsung

ro.com.google.clientidbase.vs=android-samsung

ro.com.google.clientidbase.gmm=android-samsung

ro.com.google.gmsversion=2.1_r2

Source: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=734151&page=2

Would Galaxy S2's default.prop also have those lines?

The first weird thing I noticed after deleting default.prop was that the market app stopped showing me a lot of apps under "Top Free" or "Top Paid". It is still like that after entering the above lines from original galaxy S..

Could anyone please upload or post what's in their default.prop, so that I can copy it into mine, or use as reference?

Thank you in advance, I'm dying of knowing the fact that my phone might be missing a critical file..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thelestat:
All mine has in it is:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tersian:
..then it seems like I have overreacted. The system seemed to have filled in all the lines back to original state, and im going to have to look elsewhere to solve the market problem.

I've bought a unlocked Bell DZ in christmas and I've been waiting for Gingerbread update since then. However, I've noticed my phone never got the March update and I'm not getting the 2.3.3 update either.

This is what I see when I boot in the recovery mode

VISION PVT SHIP S-OFF

HBOOT-0.85.0005

MICROP-0425

RADIO-26.03.02.18_M3 (yes it's M3 not M2)

eMMC-boot

Oct 11 2010,20:10:38

I got the 2.3.3 update.zip from a xda fellow and put it in my sd card root folder.

However, I got an error saying the version doesn't match.

I guess I bought the phone with S-OFF and I saw a thread not to flash to an older RUU if i have S-OFF? I've noticed the RUU I found said "RUU_Vision_BellMobility_WWE_1.34.666.1_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.18_M2_release_154437_signed.exe " which is M2 not M3?

Any guru want to help me out?

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Part Four:
Although I've already "made my peace" with many of those here who had a gripe with me, I'd like to, once again, thank the people here who were actually helpful, were willing to accept my apology and, most importantly, the developers who are always hard at work trying to make the GS4G the best that it can be. The recent Gingerbread ROMs have really brought new life to this phone and addressed many of my initial complaints and disappointment.

That being said, (and much to the delight of several of you here who just can't seem to move past things, even after my apologies and attempts to reconcile) I still can't see myself keeping this phone. There's just not enough RAM, app storage space, etc. and, being a father of 8 month old twins, I need a decent camera ready at all times. I think we can all agree that the camera on this thing is about as weak as it gets these days.

So I ordered an HTC Sensation which should be here in a week. I guess I'll be bothering the guys over in those forums soon enough.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] ScripterJR:
This probably won't help at all but possibly could.

1) use up your whole battery

2) pull out the battery

3) before putting it back in, run your fingers around the edges where the battery usually sits

4) put it back the battery

5) charge your phone till it's at 100%

That may help, I had a similar problem and it worked for me (pulling out the battery removes the "static").

I have the same problem with Calkulin + Clemsyn Combo Overclock at 1.5 ghz V6 ROM. I followed instructions at Goodintentions' viewsonic gtablet for dummies website and everything works great except for some apps I can't download. The apps appear in the Market when I search, I see the description, screenshots, etc. but no download/install button. A friend of mine has the same Gtablet with the same ROM and the same issue.

I believe the root cause is how the Gtablet device is being identified in the Market. For example, Starbucks is not downloadable. When I go to market.android.com, it shows the app is installed on my Sprint HTC HERO200 phone (running CM-7.0.3, Gingerbread 2.3.3).

The Gtablet, running Calkulin + Clemsyn V6 ROM shows up as Sprint Malata UPC300-2.2 and it says "This item is not compatible with your device"

I now need to defer to Android experts, can anyone please help with this Market identification issue on the Gtablet?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thinkbig1:
The problem was how Gingerbread was identifying the device to the Market. I got frustrated and switched to GTabComb. Very glad I did. Everything works great. Once you switch to Honeycomb it will be very hard to imagine going back to Gingerbread. You'll wonder why you waited so long.

This is good news, because whoever was in charge of the speakers in HTC devices until now needs to be fired. The speaker in the Evo 3D is probably the WORST speaker I have ever heard in a phone...ever.
[HTC EVO 3D] SoraX64:
Eh, I'm not too big on this. The Beats are overpriced moderate quality headphones; you can find much better headphones for the same price, and similar headphones for a much lower price. But it also goes to say that the Beats have a terrible overpowering bass that makes listening to any music that isn't rap terrible.

I can't see a ton of good in this. I see more expensive phones as the Beats start to draw the hypnotized audio market towards this idea.
[HTC EVO 3D] nate420:
Sound quality is good

Most people hate them because they assume it will have awesome bass because Dr.dre made them...

I think there are atleast 3 companies that make studio quality head phones that charge half of the price of beats

I have Ultrasone hfi-580's with bass boost

They blow beats out of the water

And for the price (120 dollars for standard pair) they will win me over

The only reason there so expensive is because a "has been" rapper turned recording artist (my opinion) has his name on it... They do look nice and hold up to some abuse... But for the average user they hold no water

Skull candies are better if you listen to rap

Not 300 dollar Chinese made Dr.dre beats :p
[HTC EVO 3D] nate420:
I honestly think they don't have enough bass :/

But that's just me

Most likely because I have a 149-154db car audio system
