you're in xda.....so just root your phone and get gingerbread yourself.....or switch to terrible ass sprint and get their ridiculously slow 3g or their spotty "4g". at least t-mo delivers good 3g data a majority of the time. i average about 4-6mbps. and i also have a vibrant.

you can also fix gps yourself

Hi, I am running Newts 3D V2.0.2 of of my SD card with Boot manager & I am looking for the overclock kernel that was in earlier versions.

It is a little slow without overclocking on my sd card.

It was in 2.0 but a stock kernel was put in 2.0.1

Where can I find the overclock kernel?

Thanks
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Fasinationinmotion:
He took out the OC kernel because it didnt support alot of the features of the ROM. So until he can get his own kernel it wont be available.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] oxlong27:
Use drellisdees kernel its overclockable.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Bob_Funk:
Thanks,

I will give it a try

Is there any one in here could help my problem ?

I used to be using VIVAZ from sony ericsson either but the OS are symbian, so I change to X10 Mini Pro right now and been looking for @google either but none could help my calendar and task problem.

Is there anyway that I could transfer vcs file from symbian into Android Eclair @X10 mini pro ?

Thank you so much for helping me :)

[Motorola Droid Bionic] afma_afma:
Hello XDArs,

Currently i am using the Droid Revolution, but planning on buying the Bionic. Any suggestions/feedback that you guys can give me about the Bionic?

I have been reading user reviews all over the internet, but i feel true review comes from somebody who has used/operated the phone for a longer period of time.

Please throw in any feedback...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] manolith2011:
The bionic is awesome. It is super fast and its just a very nice device. I must tell you one thing so you are not caught off guard. The screen is not great. It looks very good but when you compare it to an iphone 4 or Samsung charge under low light it will not look as good as either of the mentioned phones. In the daylight even under direct sunlight it looks awesome and better than any other screen I had. I highly recommend the extended battery especially because its only 25 bucks.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dgowe15:
If you're looking to root your phone and start flashing roms and kernels right away I would go with something else since it'll probably be a short while for the bootloader to get unlocked
[Motorola Droid Bionic] BayouBengal:
After a few days of use, I can tell you that its a fantastic device. The overall experience is positive, and I would only caution you about the camera focus issue, and minor bugs in skin. Both of these will probably be solved in the near future... It is a new phone after all.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] afma_afma:
awesome..thank u for the input...anybody use bluetooth on the bionic..is it buggy?

Thanks, all!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] acPIZZA:
Best Android device I've used.

Screen its great. As long as you don't put out directly up to your eye ball, it is a beautiful high resolution display that is perfectly viewable on direct sunlight.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] patelhj1:
Okay so I have add plenty of new phones, and the Bionic Dual Core Processor and incredible 4g coverage is the perfect mix that will satisfy anyone. I am a owner of the Motorola Droid x (3g coverage only) , HTC thunderbolt (3G and 4G), and now the Motorola Droid Bionic, and this far the bionic is deff the best phone. I reccommend to get it now because vzw has a special on extended batteries for under 30$. This is a amazing deal because the life of the phones is 24+ with moderate use and 4g coverage almost always available.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] afma_afma:
i see so many people complaining about the pixelation effect(lol...as people put their eyeball directly on the display..lol)..i even tried it....and my eyes started to pain,dropped the idea...and checked the display(normally) and i was blown away..it was very good actually...

24+ hours..??? and you have so many phones..u shud sell your bionic to me,..:P
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mx5er:
The bionic is very quick. I came from a droid x and this beats the droid x in speed in every possible way. Web browsing feels just as quick, if not faster, than an ipad 2. I recently connected my droid to my tv with an HDMI cable and i'm really happy with the different options it gives you.

People are talking about this screen "problem" but I never noticed anything wrong with the screen until the threads started to pop up.

The only thing that I'd like to figure out is how to put pictures into folders to organize what I want to see.

If all this appeals to you I say get the bionic with the extended battery.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Berzerker7:
If you have to ask yourself "hmm...should I buy this?" the answer is don't buy it. Only buy something you truly want. You already have the experience of 4G, all that's left is to get a powerful phone, and if you can get something like the Prime in a couple months, I'd tell you to wait for that.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] afma_afma:
I am just looking/fishing for hard facts.....want to buy based on facts.....
[Motorola Droid Bionic] acPIZZA:
Yeah, its the same people that will walk up to a 36" 720p television screen and complain about the lack of full hd, when in fact the difference isn't noticeable to the eye unless you are right on top of it.

Holding the phone as little as 12 inches, give or take yields a beautifully crisp image. Text and all.

Even engadget digs the screens. They raved about the qhd in the x2, and for some reason I feel this one is even better (I owned, and am currently trying to sell the x2). For the most part they are usually right in the ballpark with their reviews, imo.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dbindock:
I upgraded from an OG Droid, and this phone is flat amazing comparatively. Get the extended battery though, and turn off 4G if you aren't using it. It's a battery hog. I got about 14 hours out of the stock battery with 4G off most of the day; only used about 30 minutes worth throughout the day. I had 30% battery left after about 14 hours on the extended battery (first day, batteries seem to get better after about a week) and that was with about an hour of solid 4G usage in there.

One odd thing about this (and in searching, it seems to be happening on other 4G phones, so it must have something to do with 4G and 3G decisions on the phone) but from time to time, 3G disappears. There is a thread about this question here, but I can't post because I don't have 10 posts and it's a development thread. All you have to do to fix the data connection is put the phone in Airplane mode for a second, then turn airplane mode off. It resets the radio and 3G comes back. Even if you turn on and use 4G, 3G doesn't want to come back until you reset the radio.

All in all, great phone, much better battery than OG Droid, awesome display, camera needs work and motorola is working on it, very smooth and fast, and the 4G is blazing. My best download is 21Mbps, and my best upload is 7.7Mbps.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Superguy:
Somewhat buggy.

If you have a Nissan or Infiniti with BT, BT is going to suck no matter what due to Nissan's horrible implementation. That said, Bionic's BT was the best of HTC, Samsung, and Moto phones I had. The least amount of distortion I've had while using the car's speakerphone. I've seen some complaints with Ford's SYNC as well.

However, it wouldn't automatically connect with the car all the time and it would randomly drop at times. I'd have to tell it to manually connect with the car or it would just sit there. Even with the manual connections, it would take longer than other phones.

Not a huge deal, but it is somewhat annoying.

Biggest annoyance can be the screen. You have to look at it and play with it to see if it's something that works for you or not. Works for some, not for others.

I also had some issues using the sdcard storage when connected to my PC. Sometimes only one of sdcards would mount. Sometimes neither would. In those cases, it took a reboot to fix it.

Other than those issues, great phone overall. Great signal and reception, and LTE rocks. Phone ended up not working for me, but it can be a good choice for some.

---------- Post added at 11:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:15 AM ----------

Subjective. Everyone's eyes are different and pick up on different things. I could hold it at over 12" and still see the pixelation. It was really noticeable when green or blue was a dominant color on the screen. Look at the demo of Let's Golf 2 and it was quite obvious when it was all green.

Others will focus on color saturation and make a call either way too.

It'll bother some and not others. Neither opinion is more right than the other as it's a personal thing.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheLoonyRebel:
Here's my summary on the phone. This is subjective based upon my few days with the Bionic so its not a final definitive opinion but simply my views on the Bionic.

Pros: Fast device. 4G speed is great. Phone feels pretty light in hand yet still "heavy" enough to where it doesn't feel too bulky. Moto Blur for the most part on the Bionic is pretty tolerable enough to where I actually didn't think about using any home screen replacements. Sound quality is very good out of the speaker. 720p/1080p video recording is decent. ZumoCast works great for streaming audio. Battery life at least from the few days I had the Bionic was pretty good as I got about 17 hours with "moderate" use... however....

Cons: ... the battery life isn't so good when you start to use it beyond "moderate" usage such as streaming video or even heavy audio/bluetooth use. The screen is very lackluster due to it being pentile - I highly recommend you play with the phone via store demo for at least 5-10 minutes to see if this bothers you. Camera quality is so-so and could be better. No camera hard button on the phone like the original Droid had but then again it seems like most phones have abandoned that. A bit overpriced at $299 since I feel $199 is stretching it for this phone.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Stories:
I have generally good things to say about this phone, but since you already have a LTE phone, I might suggest standing aside until the next generation starts rolling.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] almajiko:
Hi, I have to take the chance to thank all the xda developers and forum users that have helped me with the hints and tutorials. I had never have to ask because all my questions where already answered in the forum but now I have a specific case where I have a SGH-T849 Tmobil tablet and need to install the latin P1000N rom. In case anyone wonder why it is because in the country I am the voice and 3g works perfect with this rom and with the current rom the max I've got is edge + voice.

So the question is .... Can I flash the P1000N stock rom in a SHG T849? If not and some one has the info I would like to know why.

Thanks again.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a1jatt:
I used to have tmobile tab and i flashed p1000 roms from the samfirmware without any problems.

You will have to flash tmobile radio after you are done rom flashing.

if you want to be extra careful, dont flash the bootloaders.

Still dont blame me in case you brick it. :p
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rangercaptain:
You can't flash a "N" rom unless that's your model. They are not compatible.

You won't get 3g on a t-mobile tab unless you're on a t-mobile network (1700/2100 bands). The rom can't change that.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] almajiko:
thanks rangercaptain..... little bit late or better said too soon I have tried, I bricked it :-( no download mode no boot only lights the buttons...

and this:

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-3/169413-droid-3-webtop.html

on that note, I believe we are all aware of how much more advanced the droid 3 is than the droid x. speculating, I would assume it would be just as capable of supporting webtop as the bionic since they have pretty much the same hardware.

also, it appears as though people have successfully ported simpler editions of Linux into android environments onto various devices as seen here:

http://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C1SNNT_enUS429US429&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=ubuntu+g1

furthermore, someone has successfully paired a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse with an Atrix as seen here:

http://forums.androidcentral.com/t-atrix/65382-webtop-application-hdmi-cable-no-dock-3.html

so basically, my question is if we were able to replicate/modify a gingerbread-compatible version of realHDMI for video output, confirm the existence or integrate the ability to communicate with Bluetooth mice and keyboards, and for ease-of-use have them all activate under one circumstance ( like with Tasker or something), would it be practical to somehow use that linux environment in conjunction with a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard and hdmi output and have something close to webtop with the Droid 3?

**disclaimer:

[Motorola Droid 3] erismaster:
The main issue I believe with doing that is the droid 3 has 512 mb of ram. The bionic has that amout set aside just for webtop. I'm not sure its even possible, or realistically usable on our phone, although if it is that'd be really cool.
[Motorola Droid 3] myleskeller:
that's why I've tried piecing together this alternative. If I remember correctly, the linux distro ran completely off the sd card, but that may not be relevant to your comment.
[Motorola Droid 3] 640k:
why does that matter? the 1GB of storage is because the webtop app is part of the ROM. even an un-rooted D3 could store a user-created app somewhere else, like the SD card.

also, why bother with BT mouse and keyboard? use a USB host controller (simple cable, that attaches to the mini-USB) and you can attach wireless USB versions (cheaper, and more available).
[Motorola Droid 3] myleskeller:
oh. didn't know that existed. lol.

sounds pretty sweet!

is it confirmed to work with this phone?
[Motorola Droid 3] tcrews:
Storage and ram are not the same.

Droid 3 has 512 meg of ram.

Droid Bionic has 1024 meg of ram.

Webtop uses a good chunk of that to function, if the Droid 3 could run it...what ram would we use to run our applications in now, since its mostly being used by Webtop?

[Motorola Droid 3] spunker88:
How hard would it be to create a generic android laptop dock/webtop. Take something in the style of a laptop. The monitor is fed via microHDMI, the speakers could be fed either with HDMI audio or 3.5mm headphone jack. Keyboard and touchpad support are done via bluetooth or USB host if the phone supports it. The keyboard, touchpad, monitor and microUSB charging for the phone would all be powered by a battery and charger on the laptop style body.

Maybe this all isn't possible now. Perhaps when we get Android ICS we'll get better bluetooth support so that generic keyboard/mouse support is universal.

Here is a script that can install it, xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1147358 though it has some problems installing on the Droid 3. So what I did was copy it over from the TP2. And here www.androidfanatic.com/community-forums.html? func=view&catid=9&id=1615 are instruction to get vnc setup. Not sure how well HDMI works and if it would work using vnc.

There are other ways to install Debian and also Ubuntu, theres a ubuntu.img floating around somewhere all set up, just dont know where.
[Motorola Droid 3] myleskeller:
from what i recall of realhdmi from my droid x, the output was a mirror, so whatever was displayed on the screen came up on the tv, but the x was also single core, which apparently makes a huge difference in output processing methodology.

is there any similar software for the new dual core architecture processors?

if there was a way to get a stable version of ubuntu as the desktop interface in "webtop" form, that would be amazing (mostly because i am familiar with it. lol)
[Motorola Droid 3] modal realism:
The original Bionic had only 512mb of ram as well.

To OP:

I have been pushing for this for a while. There's NO reason that webtop can't be ported to the Droid 3. I want to see it done because webtop is the only feature I truly want that I don't have on my Droid 3.

---------- Post added at 06:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:48 AM ----------

Webtop does shut down and Android still controls process management; Webtop runs as a guest OS on the device and the Android VM provides APKs for interfacing with it (like sharing contacts, emails, etc between apps or mouse/keyboard input).

You're not going to be using webtop and your phone at the same time. When you're done with webtop, you'll shut it down and resume using your phone.
[Motorola Droid 3] calash:
Are there any good write-ups on what exactly webtop is and how it works?

Is it just a second linux instance limited to a basic shell and web browser? If so could we look at compiling Puppy for arm to live in the reduced space?
[Motorola Droid 3] modal realism:
Its an ARM flavor of pared-down Ubuntu running as a guest OS. I'm assuming it runs some type of proprietary VNC-type protocol that communicate with the Android VM.

Last I checked there were 3 or 4 Android services/activities associated with Webtop. One of them monitored the dock connectedness, one appeared to provide shared data access (like contacts, emails, notes, documents, etc), and I'm guessing one was responsible for the phone homescreen snapshots.

Bluetooth mouse, keyboard ok

Good news! I just paired my Rocketfish bluetooth keyboard and mouse (models RF-BTKB2 and RF-BTMSE2) with my Droid 3 and both work! Details follow:

The mouse cursor is black. Brings the phone out of suspend when moved as expected. Scrollwheel works. Right click functions as the "back key," center click is the menu. Traditional left click works like normal. Swiping things doesn't work (the screens get stuck in the animation *unless* you drag and release at the right time). All multimedia buttons (play, forward/back, stop) work.

Most keys on the keyboard work like normal. Exceptions:

F1: Menu

F3: Dialer

F4: locks phone

F5: Search

F2,F6-F12: don't do anything.

HOME: Desktop preview

Numlock: Doesn't activate

Number pad: Functions as arrow keys (as expected with Numlock not engaging).

Math keys (next to numpad): +-*/ do not function either

Arrow keys ok

CTRL: Menu

ALT: No function

Super/Windows key: Menu

Print screen, Scroll lock, and Pause/break keys appear to have no function.

My keyboard also has multimedia keys:

Volume up/down adjust system/ringer/music volume all work

Mail: Does nothing

Search: brings up search

Play/Pause/Forward/Backward/Mute all work in the (default) music application.

I bought the Rocketfish Bluetooth keyboard/mouse because they are extremely Linux compatible. Not sure if results will be the same with other devices.

If anyone wants to see the results of "adb logcat" when I press keys just ask and I'd be happy to post. The good news is it appears bluetooth keyboard/mice are reasonably well supported.

[Motorola Droid 3] leobg:
Tip - Ctrl-Alt-Del on the bluetooth keyboard restarts the phone :)
[Motorola Droid 3] myleskeller:
ok, so then:

keyboard/mouse = proven

webtop capability = plausible, with recompilation of some form of ubuntu

hdmi output = yet to be determined

dock sensing/emulation = plausible, probably going to be one of the easier tasks to accomplish

right?
[Motorola Droid 3] 8on3s:
If its a modified *Ubuntu img why not see if anyone is able to extract it from the phone, and view the root fs?

The D3 should have no issue with the ram, the eris can run Debian/Ubuntu and function fine. It stores everything minus the vnc on the SD card.

I'm moving over to the D3 soon myself, and would love to see a proper webtop, desktop system on this phone.

I don't see the value of these webtops. In theory they are cool but if it costs 400	bucks to get one why not get a tablet and sync between? You could get a tablet, kb and mouse for those prices...
[Motorola Droid 3] modal realism:
Who said it costs $400?

Within just a few weeks of release, the Atrix was hacked to where no dock was needed whatsoever, you only needed an HDMI cable and some method of mouse/keyboard control.

The non-laptop dock is like $80.
