Just installed CM7 on my Evo 3D and it's glorious. I picked up a photon from BB for $99, so once it's up and running on the Photon I'll switch in a heartbeat as I feel it's the superior piece of hardware.

I really can't live without CM; it's my primary requirement for choosing a new phone. Thanks so much for taking this on, mrinehart.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Custodian:
Give rine sometime. He will have it up for beta or alpha in due time. Once again thanks!
[Motorola Photon 4G] Finishure:
So being that there are people interested how do we start the bounty and where does the money go once cyanogen hits the phone other roms/ devs will follow I'm down for $50 to start off I'm by no means rich but I'm all about pro longing the life of my phone
[Motorola Photon 4G] SS2006:
whats new?
[Motorola Photon 4G] dschachm:
Yes. I'm in.
[Motorola Photon 4G] craigbailey1986:
Just so everyone knows, I spoke with t0bld, from the atrix team who are compiling it and he said he would speak to his team members about it and see if they can get it running for us as well!! I will report back when he hits me back up. I informed him of the bounty.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Kcarpenter:
the 3 of you so far who have said "Nah I can live without it" or what ever the option is - need to die. Go return your photon, dig a hole, and die. My last bit of faith in humanity is gone now. Thanks, hope you can go on living until you dig your hole and die your self. :(

Yes we talked we are possibly interested obviously first issue is obviously lack of phones ...

How many are we talking and are we talking 599 for each?

well i dont know the cost of them, i mean alot of us on this team are around the world , so that wouldnt make sense to start off trying to buy us all phones , but i think wed need one or 2 to get started...

There is a bad ESN photon on Craigslist in my area for $200 right now
[Motorola Photon 4G] Finishure:
I think the best thing to do would be to collect the bounty first and see where we stand if they could use a phone with a bad esn then that would be a god send but more then likely there going to need a fully functioning phone....
[Motorola Photon 4G] craigbailey1986:
I will ask him what he needs. I can put $10. a week towards it. I get paid weekly. If each person who said they want it give $10.00 we would have enough for 2 phones!!!
[Motorola Photon 4G] shabbypenguin:
i got mine off ebay for 350, clean esn and in great condition, trying to raise up 1200 bucks for 2 brand new phones is a little silly.
[Motorola Photon 4G] craigbailey1986:
exactly... lets atleast do one phone and if they need another one then we will go there... thanks shabby for all that you do for our phones!!!!!
[Motorola Photon 4G] cixelsyddyslexic:
I registered to attempt to reply in the dev forum thread about the bounty, the link that was given there does not work for me. I would glady contribute, however. Just got my MoPho today, and it's a great phone, but I've grown quite accustomed to having CM7 on my past Droid X.
[Motorola Photon 4G] SS2006:
They can just build and we can test or whoever volunteers to no?

No need to buy three phones at 599$ each I'm sure there's a dev in the photon forum...
[Motorola Photon 4G] cixelsyddyslexic:
I've got $50 for this. And no, they really do need the phone in hand to make this happen.
[Motorola Photon 4G] havok6:

I'm actually disappointed in the lack of development for the photon. CM7 is what I looked forward to the most. If I knew how to develop, I'd contribute my portion...

Bring on the developers. Donations will be given!
[Motorola Photon 4G] abowlby:
You and me both. Mine should be here on Thursday and I would love CM7 as an option. I love Minimalbread on the CM theme engine, and paired with WP7's font...se bon!

I would also like to see MiUi on this phone. And I know, it looks like the iPhone or whatever, but it also has a ton of functionality.
[Motorola Photon 4G] abowlby:
The Launcher doesn't really have a lot to do with whether or not its stock. Any of the "AOSP ROMs" you are using out there probably owe a thanks to CM for laying their groundwork.

Does anyone know anything about charging the battery using a dedicated battery charger?

Our battery is rated 1500mAh at 3.7V. That is basically a 1S configuration type cell. i.e. max charge voltage of 4.2

1. Can I use 2 alligator clips and hook this battery up to my "dedicated charger"?

2. Can I charge it at 1.5AH so that it will fully charge in about 1hr?

BTW, I am using a IMAX B6 charger.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] EyeCU:
I plan to buy the Bionic next week, or in a few months. (more likely tomorrow)

And I am trying to figure out if Webtop App and possibly Laptop attachment is worth it. I am not able to find any straight forward Apps or features. Just people talking about how to root it... If there is already a post that mentions the below, please past the link and not tell me to use Google,... I already did, and I am not looking for how to root, I am looking for why should I root.

What can the Webtop App do before the hacks/root access?

What can I do after I hack/root?

I already know about not needing the dock after Webtop has been hacked... I want to know about other apps, and features that make this a worth while purchase.

I do plan on rooting the phone and getting full use out of it.

Thanks in advanced!

[Desire General] Bouncer5:
So last weekend I was out celebrating my engagement, and some drunk tosser spilled all the drinks on the table down me, Now my phone was in my back pocket, and the front of me was wet, Odd thing is the next day the hard buttons, Now are almost completely unresponsive, And require me to press hard, and usually multiple times.

I had also changed my Tom to a CM7 Nightly not long before going out.

Any ideas?
[Desire General] danarama:
Do a key test in recovery if you have cwm. If they are still unresponsive, its hardware and not a lot you can do.
[Desire General] Chaosz-X:
Had the same issue with my volume buttons. Brought it to the shop, got it back after 3 weeks, repaired :) Just unroot, and flash a RUU, and bring it to the shop.

Although I would worry a bit if the phone could have been wet, it could void your warranty. Best of luck though!
[Desire General] xlnc2012:
I have experienced some irresponsiveness from my volume buttons. How much did they charge you to fix it or was it fixed during the warranty period?
[Desire General] axisminden:
here is a good idea if your button's are much less responsive.

you can use it for back-menu-search-home. you can add this to the joystick.

desire must have root.

it is in german.

[Desire General] asestar:
I have similar problem with the Home key. My desire (original AMOLED) is nearly 15 months old, and been working perfectly fine up till about a month ago. I think some dust got inside or something.

Here is how i fixed mine:

Turned off the phone, remove battery cover and batteri (i removed SD card too)

I sprayed deodorant directly into button. I would have gone with electronics cleaner spray but didnt have it at hand. It helped a little but not much.

Then, a direct jet from compressed air can for about 5 seconds.

Waited a minute, then put batteri back in and it works better now. Maybe it helps you?
[Desire General] asestar:
Direct jet from compressed air can< meant to say i kept the can upside down and let the fluid get inside buttons (before evaporating almost instantly).
[Desire General] Tsjoklat:
there is a program called button savior that really helped me. Now I dont have to use the buttons. (root required)
[Desire General] xlnc2012:
You need the volume button for recovery mode right???
[Desire General] Heisenberg:
I think you can use the optical track pad too
[Desire General] Nilepiels:
Yup, but to enter recovery you need the volume key. I think thats what he means
[Desire General] Heisenberg:
Thats true, but he could boot into recovery from rom manager or by long pressing the power button (if that still works)
[Desire General] asestar:
But doesnt such programs only work once device is up and running? That would not work when you need to select up/down (volume keys) in bootloader.
[Desire General] Heisenberg:
Yes but I think if you boot into recovery from rom manager you can swype the track pad to move up and down, and press it to select the option? If all buttons are completely unresponsive though and the phone won't even power on there is nothing you can do.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] ap3604:
http://thisismynext.com/2011/09/07/motorola-droid-bionic-review/

"This is not the killer handset that I think a lot of people were expecting it to be — it’s a good phone on a great network that will keep you satisfied… for now."

"Score: 7.5/10"

"Cons:

Battery life is lacking

Software bugs can cause problems

Pricey"

"In the time I used the device I found the Bionic’s stamina to be less than spectacular in comparison to most 3G phones, but nearly-passable when held up next to its 4G competitors."

Ouch :(

Thought about upgrading but for $300 + tax + 2 year contract the phone should have better than "nearly-passable" battery life. Guess I'll have to wait for Anandtechs review of the battery life as well. Can anyone here speak of the battery life they are getting and if it fits this review?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] idefiler6:
Pretty bad review. Everyone I've spoken to that's had it for a few days says the battery is f*cking amazing. This and the gizmodo review seem biased as hell.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] bill.garrett:
Mark Smith from the Detroit Free Press says he's been using it for about a week and is very happy with the battery life. I've heard a few other positive comments as well, depending on how long the reviewer had or used the phone. Those who only used it for a day typically were less than impressed. Those who had time to break it in said it got better.

But it's still a good idea to wait a few days for more reviews.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cdf3:
I heard that as well.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheLoonyRebel:
Yeah its expected for some reviews to be a bit negative especially given the long wait and hype over the Bionic. With that said if I'm able to get 12-14 hours of battery under moderate use then I'll be happy.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] tct08:
This is most definitely the case for me, and I've had a Bionic for nearly a month. Battery life with everything syncing is more than acceptable in my mind, especially for an LTE device.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] GBH2:
I have heard a lot of good things about the battery life on the Bionic - except for this review. I happened to notice that he is only showing 1 bar in all the pictures he posted. It might just simply be he was in a really bad area for Verizon. I know that a really bad signal would always kill my battery fast in every smartphone i've ever had.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] idefiler6:
That, iphone and samsung fanboys writing articles as well!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] psufan5:
Guys... Battery life will vary for EVERYONE. The thunderbolt battery drains twice as fast when your 4G signal is less than 3 bars. This guy in the review had very few bars, thus, draining the battery. The best thing you can do for a phone like this is have 3G on until you NEED 4G. I mean really people, when do you actually NEED 4G? When tethering... ;)

Juice defender is the best app on the market. Phone locked??? Data turned off and set to check your data whenever you set the time to. This helps every phone.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] rcicu:
I can't wait to give you guys my review tomorrow.... but I was able to order mine from vzw for $75!! :D
[Motorola Droid Bionic] suzook:
Wtf? I didnt see much negativity in the review. What are you guys talking about?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Krazykrws:
I have been using mine for the past four days and hands down the best battery life on any android device I've owned to date. (This is my 9th android device.)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mrpickem:
BGR says it's the best handset ever offered by verizon.

http://www.bgr.com/2011/09/07/motorola-droid-bionic-hands-on/
[Motorola Droid Bionic] psufan5:
That was one of the crappiest reviews I have ever read.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] kart38:
It was a hands-on, not a review. You know, a quick impression of the phone for the rabid customers that can't wait for a full review. Like us ;)

Jason
[Motorola Droid Bionic] iyl78:
I also have heard nothing but praise regarding battery life, especially in comparison to the existing LTE selection on VZW. I also saw the "review" on gizmodo, which was nearly opposite of what engadget had to say. They both posted around the same time, and the gizmodo writer seemed *incredibly* biased. Even when he was talking about basic specs he seemed to do so with a negative connotation.

... with only 2 negative reviews out of 10 or so positives I've seen, I'm definitely still going to get it this morning!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Berzerker7:
If you guys actually watched his video, he said that he got 11 hours switching between LTE and WiFi. That's *fantastic* battery life for an LTE device. I don't think battery life is going to be an issue, especially if you don't have 4G in your area and you just turn it off, but then you might as well get a DX2 which is basically the same phone without LTE (among other differences like it's got a Tegra, etc)

[Atrix 4G General] Alcapone263:
with the amount of information available in these forums, needless threads clogs things up and makes it harder for people to find helpful information.

there should only be one CM7 thread, with relevant information in it. not a new one posted every single time an update is put out.

yup.. better just make an update for the first thread

will flash it this evening..

its probably because that one was called pre-beta3 so may confuse some new people. but would be nice is that someone starts a thread just called "Cyanogen Mod 7 Pre-Beta" and maybe get it a sticky.

[Atrix 4G General] DeathKoil:
Boots for me, lasts about 15 seconds, then the phone hard reboots back to the Dual Core screen. After that it never gets past the CM7 boot animation.

My install method:

1. Boot to Fastboot

2. fastboot erase boot

3. fastboot erase system

4. fastboot erase userdata

5. fastboot erase cache

6. boot into recovery (5.0.2.0 from Rom Manager)

7. Install zip from SD Card

8. Choose the Correct zip

9. Install it

10. Check log for errors (none)

11. Boot

I'm going to try the recovery linked on the download page for Pre-Beta4. I'll post my progress as edits on this post so that it will (hopefully) help others who run into the same issue without them having to search too much.

edit1: Didn't mention that I did the steps listed above twice and had it lock up after 15 seconds both times.

edit2: Linked recovery on the download page did the same thing, however I did end up getting it to work.

**FIX** For those with this problem. After you install the ROM, boot up, hang, and get stuck at the boot animation... go recovery again and wipe Data and Cache. This made it so that the next bootup was fine. To test this theory, I wiped again with the steps above, flashed the ROM, booted, and hung up after 15 seconds with a hard reset then it wouldn't boot. I pulled the battery, popped it back in, went into recovery, and wiped data and cache again, rebooted no problem. For those that ask... pulling the battery itself did not fix the problem as I tried that previous to this fix and still was stuck at the boot animation.

I notice that this didn't come with the 1.9 Faux kernel, max OC is at 1100 - was there something wrong with the faux kernel or was this an oversight?

edit3: I tip my hat to the Atrix Dev Team. You guys are amazing! I wish I knew more about how to do this stuff. Up until late last month I hadn't programmed for about 7 years (CompSci Major - but that was a long time ago). I'm picking it back up so that I can do this kinda stuff late in my Atrix's life or at least with my next phone! I re-read my java books from college, and I picked up an Android development book that got good reviews. If anyone has recommended reading, I'm all ears!

If you have any recommended reading to help, I'm all ears.

I've tried looking around the web, but found no information and I'm sure there are people here with superior Google-fu. Are there plans to release the Jetstream to the rest of the world? At the very least, without AT&T branding?

And a related question; does anyone know if they will have spec options (WiFi Only, no pen, etc...)?
[HTC Jetstream] DanMc85:
not sure, its possible a different model will come out, this is at&t specific with the 4G LTE frequency so it would not work international on LTE. also it doesn't come with the pen, it is a separate $80 accessory, which until Oct 15 they are giving free with the tablet purchase.
