[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgraziotin:
At least I made half-damages. Now it is gone, this thread is resurrected and my question is still valid.

I am waiting for a CM luminary to help me understand about the new strange "We love opensource, but you need the proprietary binary driver" Google policy and how this will impact non-officially upgradeable devices.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danstheman7:
Yeah, I don't exactly understand how google is planning to get that ball rolling either, if the drivers aren't all available.

As for the atrix, from what my understanding is, the real issue with ICS not being ported is the missing Tegra 2 driver.

Now, don't quote me on that, but that's what I saw.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stumpyz9:
i think there is a slight posibility we will get official ics, seeing how the photon and bionic will probably get it, and the atrix is basically the same phone but for a different carrier. but even if we do get official, still sticking with cm9
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AstainHellbring:
Not sure where you saw the photon is getting it. No officials I've seen for that one. As for the bionic not gonna help us much as its not tegra 2
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stumpyz9:
well seing how they are already running gb, seems like they would get an official update. and if the photon gets it since its a tegra 2 the porting would probably be pretty easy, but im not a dev so i wouldnt know.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sexywacko:
Not going to happen....or at least for the next 6 months. this "must have the latest software" is a god damn disease. Lol I think this phone is awesome, but was never well supported or embraced by the developing community from the get go. Not being harsh but a lot of developers have left.....
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theandre:
And the used prices for Atrix are joke now, you can get one for 200$. I remember how I paid 343# just two month ago. I feel stupid.

As for the Tegra 2 and ICS, don't you guys know that numerous tablets will be getting ICS ?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d0ugi3:
you must be mad i paid 1 cent for mine, (granted it was with an ATT upgrade) but after taxes and their upgrade fee's .. still less than 50$ for the atrix
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NinjaWookie:
To me it all feels very elitist.. YOU can have the latest upgrade but YOU can't.. Most of us are locked into 2 year contracts.. Yet at the rate that phones are evolving most phones are out of date within 6 months. With new O/S upgrades coming every year at the most. So what Motorola/Google are telling me is my phone which I've had just a year is not worthy of the newest update/upgrade. What Makes it worse is with Google purchasing Motorola's mobile phone division you would think they'd showcase how the two can work together.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheBlackCat13:
That would only be an issue when and if the deal actually goes through.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smf98aggie:
I just came across this thread, bc I'm trying to get some info on when my Atrix will get ICS too. Not sure if this is a good hint or not, but I'm on Motorola's user software testing email list, and I just got an email from them last week that said they're about to be doing a new OS upgrade soon, so I completed the survey to take part of the trial. (I did the same thing with Gingerbread which is how I got that). So, based on my last experience with it, I would say that they are getting ready to roll out ICS on the Atrix sometime soon.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inspiredwire:
Actually, it's for Gingerbread 2.3.6.

This may sound silly, but if the photon gets ics (as it should as it was released after the 18month agreement) and it has nearly identical specs, and even looking at the cm9 development between the atrix and the photon. Whats the chances of a port being even possible (with some tweaking)?
[Motorola Photon 4G] jbuggydroid:
would like to be able to select whether to have the internal memory or the external sd card as the main storage. the photon comes stock with internal marked as "sdcard" and the actual sd card as"sdcard-ext" can somebody make a script or something that would let you choose? alot of apps install additional data to sd card and my eternal memory is filling up fast.

thanks
[HTC Sensation] stanleynhan:
Is there any chance that the app will be compatible with the sensation? Can anyone make it work on our device? Thanks
[HTC Sensation] Solidus_n313:
not for a while, our bluetooth stack doesnt support it...

im sure someone is working on it, as the wiimote and certain BT headphones/headsets arent working either
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
From what I've heard/read, HTC has really screwed up the BT stack on their phones and have no intention of fixing it. We basically have to wait until a ROM fixes the BT stack on this phone.
[HTC Sensation] chesterr:
Yea I've been trying to get it done and it didn't even give me a bluetooth address. then I tried on Xperia X10, that gave me a blutooth address but didn't connect. I guess we gotta wait for a while.
[HTC Sensation] AnabolicSean:
Hi,

I have read if I get my phone (HTC Sensation 4G) "rooted" (not sure how to do this) and install CyanogenMod 7 (could not find it for Sensation) I could use the SixAxis controller app on my phone.

Does anyone know where I could find CM7 to install on my Sensation (they have it for the MyTouch 4G which seems to be a similar phone, could I install that version of CM7?)?

How can I "root" my device?

Perhaps is there a different method to "tweek" the bluetooth protocol for my phone to pair with the PS3 controller?

I have seen a few youtube videos with the sixaxis working on other phones (Samsung Galaxy S, x10 mini pro, HTC Desire, HTC HD2) and since the Sensation 4G is the newest and best T-Mobile device I assumed there would be some way to get this app to work.

Im desperately trying to use the Sixaxis app (want to do 4 player Mario Kart and 007 via HDMI on my tv with 4 PS3 controllers!!) on my HTC Sensation 4G and if anyone has a way (or update) to make this work please let me know- thank you!
[HTC Sensation] sir_earl:
I'm trialing an alpha version of the compatibility checker app that should support more devices. It would be great if some of you could try it out and give me some feedback:

Don't know if this is the right place but I figured I could reach a lot of people here and we really need a forum for these amazing phones!

Who's with me??
[Android] Clivectmob:
+1 on this, apparently it's not safe to unlock the bootloader on these, dunno how true that is, but there's not a lot of talk about these on the net really, and they are really good little phones.
[Android] Dan53:
Attention: Xperia mini (ST15i) and Xperia mini pro (SK17i) – please do not unlock these phones. There is an issue with flashing the original kernel via Fastboot.

Taken from the sony dev website. Untill this is sorted it will cause problems, will defo cause devs bricking problems
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeathicusF:
I thought I knew what I was doing... :(

I've read and read and read. Thought I had all my ducks in a row. Thought I had everything figured out. But now I have a bricked phone.

I bought my Captivate refurbished from AT&T about 3 months ago. The mfg date is listed as 1011. It came with Froyo. By the third day I had it rooted and Cognition installed. Loved it. But lately it was starting to freeze up, lag, etc. so I decided to install Serendipity.

I followed the directions in the famous How-To thread here.

Odin reported success, but now my phone is stuck in bootloop. None of the tricks for getting it back into download mode worked.

I went to Radio Shack and bought some resisters and made a jig. Now, I can successfully get back to download mode now, so I'm still holding out hope!

I tried Odin again, but got the same result.

My warranty is up in 3 days. Called warranty place today and they won't do anything unless the phone can get to a recovery screen (probably their way of knowing when people have been doing what I've been doing!). Which it won't. I can put it in download mode with the jig. Otherwise, I just get the boot loop.

I have been stressing over this for the last 15 hours. I can't sleep. I've read countless forum posts. Now I find that Odin with Froyo and phones dated from 1008 and above is tricky. How did I miss that before? I've read so much, seen so many threads with people saying "do this" followed by "no don't do that" followed by "that's always worked for me" but it's not working for ME. At this point I'm confused and scared and just hope somebody can point me to instructions for getting a usable phone again.

EDIT: I see I misspelled "Odin" in the title of the thread... tried to edit it but I can't. Sorry.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedy_11:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
Which Cognition were u on ? And which Odin did u use ?

And since u can still get into Download mode u can relax a little, cause that's a good thing.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
Lol relax If the phone shows any signs of life, that means it can be fix (usually). Now if the phone after odin doesn't want to turn on THEN your bricked. Since your phone is a newer build and they have been known to not always like jf6 Odin I suggest you try this KB1 odin. Best of luck
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeathicusF:
Know that now! lol The instructions for Serendipity indicated I didn't have to go back to stock. But I just wasn't sure. So I figured I'd go ahead back to stock just to "be safe." That worked out well!

Yes, you are correct. And I deserve any amount of "stupid newb" criticism you can heap on me.

Which Cognition? Uhm... I don't recall. :o Whatever was the newest version when I installed it nearly 3 months ago.

I used the Odin One-Click. The filename is I897UCJF6-final-OCD-REV0. When I run it, the title bar says Odin3Execution_v1.0.

That's what I keep trying to tell myself...

Thanks! I'm reading through the threads y'all linked to and I'm sure I'll be back with questions. This whole Odin thing, for one, has me confused. There's at least a dozen different versions available from samfirmware.com, there are different versions of the one-click (like the Designgears 2.2 one? Should I try that one?), then different "full" versions with different instructions ("only use the pda button," "use this pit file", "don't use a pit file", etc...) I'm trying my best to make sense of it all. I was in full-blown panic mode yesterday and trying to read through a dozen different threads at once. Maybe today I can slow down a bit, take a breath, and get this figured out.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
The one click I linked should get you to stock. Atleast so you have a funtional phone. There is only one true odin with different versions (1.1 1.82 etc) one clicks r simplified odin that will only flash something specific like 2.1 jf6 or 2.3.3 kf1 to name a few. Samfirmware.com uses the actual odin as it supplies packages for it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeathicusF:
Ok, another sucky thing is I'm on satellite internet and already dangerously close to being FAP'd. I've got to run into town this evening and will try to find some free wifi so I can download those things. Until then... it's just reading threads.

One quick question... that's a one-click you linked to? Posts 33 and 34 say to use regular Odin, not one-click. They provide a link to download regular Odin. Is the I897UCKB1-homeBinary.tar file part of the package I download from the link in the first page? The one-clicks I've downloaded have just been an .exe file.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
Because I'm a derp and didn't read it well. Regardless its the package files for stock KB1 use regular ODIN for it. Stick it in PDA. It doesn't have bootloaders so the possibilities of hard bricking are very low xD. My mistake for saying it was 1 click sorry xD
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeathicusF:
Ok, thanks. :) I'll post an update tonight after I get back home.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeathicusF:
SUCCESS!!!

I now have a fully functional phone running what appears to be stock 2.2 firmware!! :D:D

THANK YOU!!!!

However... I can't seem to get into recovery mode. When I hold down all three buttons, it looks like I'm stuck in a boot loop again (ATT World Phone screen flashes). If I release the power button keeping the volume buttons held down, the phone just boots as normal. Is there a fix for this?

I still have all the folders for my old apps on the internal memory card. Can I delete these manually? I'd like it to be back to truly stock settings and start all over. Is that what the "Master Clear" in Odin is for? I didn't see that option in "regular" Odin.

I did get it rooted with Super-One-Click.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeathicusF:
Ok, this is where I'm at.

Stock Foyo working phone.

Can't boot into recovery using volume & power buttons.

Rooted with Super One Click.

Installed Superuser.

Installed Rom Manager. At least now I can boot into Recovery Mode through the option in Rom Manager.

Flashed Clockworkmod using Rom Manager. Reported success, but Recovery Mode is still stock version 3e, not 2e. So, still can't install a new custom rom.

I'm a little nervous to try anything else at this point, but really want to be running Serendipity. Serendipity says DO NOT use Rom Manager to install it.

What to do from here? I'm researching, but any pointers would be helpful.

If I install Cognition again from Rom Manager (is that possible/safe at this point?), will that replace the Recovery Mode with 2e? Or is that not related at all?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
not related at all.

you should really take the 30 seconds to search for that error you get when you try to reinstall packages from 3e recovery.....it would solve your problems.....

or do it the EASY way and just ODIN a freaking kernel on it that has built in CWM.

flash your rom of choice from CWM
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] capocaccia:
You are in 3e recovery because you are running froyo. Flash to the stock 2.1 eclair and that will get you back to 2e. There are other ways but thats the most basic I feel.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeathicusF:
Yeah, trying to flash the stock 2.1 is what got me in this trouble to begin with! :eek:

Thanks!

I'm trying... but 1) satellite internet is frustratingly slow - not much better than dial-up at times; and 2) each path of research I take leads to several forks with several different people giving several different solutions to problems, some people saying it worked, some people saying it didn't, which leads to several more alternative solutions, some of which don't work, etc... It gets confusing after a while, but I'm trying my best to read through all the threads I wander through and to make sense of it all. Yeah, I'm a stupid newbie....
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
If you would have read the beginning og the thread you know that his phone didn't take well to jf6.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
There are more builds of 2.1 other than jf6...

Op look at the bottom of the first post of the odin one click thread by design gears there are 2 stock firmware packages the first one is an eclair build use the full version of odin (not one click) flash that and you're good.

Or search for the work around of 3e recovery, look in the sticky roll up at the to of the general section...it'll say "e: signature verification error"
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeathicusF:
Yes, I tend to rely to heavily on the search feature and overlook sticky threads. Thanks for the reminder.

The "Fixing 3e" methods listed in this thread don't seem to be working for me. First method (the script) gives me an error. Tried with Win 7 64bit, and 32bit (two different computers). Yes, phone drivers were installed. Second method (manual copying of the file) doesn't work. When using Terminal Emulator to execute the command I get the message "Operation not permitted." When using ES File Explorer with Mount file System as writable checked in the settings, I get no errors or complaints... but nothing has changed when I boot into recovery.

Still working on it. Thanks for the pointers.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
why dont you try one of the ODIN KERNELS that will add CWM for you? why are you wasting your time running in circles for nothing?

put phone in download mode

open ODIN, add the kernel into the PDA slot

connect phone

flash kernel

now you have CWM and can flash any 2.2 rom you want
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeathicusF:
After softbricking (is that the right term?) my phone with Odin, it makes me a little nervous. (Of course, I also recovered my phone with Odin, so maybe I shouldn't be nervous...).

This running around in circles...? We'll call it "education"! ;)

You soft bricked using one click Odin? Don't use one click

Sent from my HTC Inspire 4G
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeathicusF:
All is 99.99% good with my phone again!

I "fixed" the 3e recovery using the script method. I was prepared to use Odin to install the speedmod kernel, but I found a different copy of TRusselo's script somewhere (wish I could remember where) and it worked. For future reference, the one with red text on a white background did NOT work for me. The one with green text on a black background DID work. I have no idea what is different about those two versions. But the green text/black background version "fixed" the 3e recovery so I could install clockworkmod.

Once I did that, installing Serendipity was a breeze. Restored my apps and data from Titanium Backup (the only thing I seemed to have lost was some notes I made in Memo). Serendipity is pretty sweet. There are parts I love, and parts I'm not crazy about, but will adjust to.

This has been a great learning experience!

One odd thing is that I was able to install clockworkmod from the 3e recovery when I first got my phone. My wife and I got ours at the same time and they both shipped with Froyo and have the same mfg dates. I've rooted and put custom roms on mine. She still has hers at stock (no rooting or anything). I just double checked and was able to use the three-button combo to boot hers into recovery mode. But I can no longer boot into recovery mode using the three-button method on mine (have to do so with Rom Manager or the power menu). And, after flashing back to stock Froyo I had to "fix" the 3e recovery before installing clockworkmod - which I didn't have to do the first time around.

Anyway, thanks to all who helped me relax and pointed me in the right direction. And thanks for going easy on this newb!

I just flashed MIUI to my X tonight, I already have it on my Nook, but I am not a fan of having all my programs on my home screens or having to put folders on my home screens either. That being said, I do like the theme options and I want to use some of the icons that the launcher uses, namely the dock background, the phone icon, contacts, etc....So, anyone know where I can find them?
[Droid X General] stealthychief:
They are all system apk's that you will have extract to get to those images. I would think the same goes for the dock background (should be under some sort of launcher.apk). I'm not on MIUI but I would imagine that's where they are at.

Yes, I know there are several wallpaper templates out there for Honeycomb and 1280x800 tablets. I just spent way too much time on this and pixel by pixel testing on my A500 Iconia. I kept putting it on the tablet, checking all variations for single pixel accuracy and I must say, it took a long time because of that.

I will be making a highly reduced version of this for when I normally make wallpapers. But I wanted to share my complete template that covers just about everything. It should make sense when you open it and read the layer names.
