This is a standard, canned response and means absolutely nothing. Believe me, there is NOTHING to be gleaned by reading this.

Guy at Costco Verizon booth yesterday also told me this month. Also checked out the Bionic...ugly.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ¿GotJazz?:
While not exactly "official", you have some awesome update options available right now: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1259858, and http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1270987
[Verizon Droid Charge] piizzadude:
yeah my understanding is there are at least 2 newer versions out beside EP1W. Guess they are still tweaking it a ton. I would have thought we would have it by now, but patience is a virtue I guess.

I would rather wait and get it right, then get it an have it suck.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ¿GotJazz?:
Well, I for one can say that the Humble ROMs from danalo have been faster and more battery efficient than the stock ROMs from Samsung. So, I would be willing to bet that the Humble ROMs available now are going to be better than whatever Samsung has for the next "official" release.

That is, until Cyanogen starts his development job at Samsung, and gets some really awesome CM-like stuff incorporated into the stock Sammy ROMs. :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] juanzr1:
Should be by the end of the month like the thunderbolt update.can't wait!
[Verizon Droid Charge] dougdascenzo:
The guys at the Costco booth don't work for Verizon for once. The one's at my Costco are incompetent and seem to give two ****s about their job or helping the customer. I would HIGHLY recommend taking anything they tell you with a grain of salt. I find it very hard to believe they would have any true insider information on this.
[Verizon Droid Charge] bluevolume:
Anything the guys at the booth are telling you is hogwash. They are just repeating something a co-worker or customer told them. Verizon does not provide those details to salespeople. Even the tech support people only have vague info like "coming soon", or maaaaaaybe a "this month". You can't miss target dates that you never announce in the first place.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jmorton10:
VZ's own techs don't know when the update is coming.

I am friends with a tech at one of the local VZ stores & he has no more idea when it's coming than we do.

~John
[Verizon Droid Charge] bluevolume:
Exactly right. Verizon does not tell them. Truth be told, most of these guys find out about the software updates when a customer brings in their phone because of a problem the update caused.
[Verizon Droid Charge] thefriskychip:
Well. I have been using humblecomb and i so far love the rom.
[Verizon Droid Charge] soondolee:
p3droid just twitt about getting 2.3.5...

is it from his apps or ota...ne1 getting the update??

@P3DroidP3Droid

Charge owners did you get your 2.3.5 yet?
[Verizon Droid Charge] NoName9:
I work at Costco, am very tech savvy, and have some friends that work directly for VZW.

I can tell you that I have heard nothing of a Charge update.

Like someone else here said unless you know someone inside VZW they don't usually notify us of software updates unless it's a bug fix update.

It's a leak, not the offical.
[Motorola Droid X2] i62cm24:
I have had the X2 for roughly 3 months and am now at the point of wanting more from the phone. I have been attempting to root using gingerbreak, enabled debugging and have attempted root 3 times giving 15 minutes for the program to complete root each time. After each time would fail I would reboot the phone to give a fresh start and verify that I do not have superuser. Each time I am left with Gingerbreak continually stating that it is rooting and running exploit yet it never moves forward.. no reboot.

Ideas?

Second question: Can someone please lay out a clear path to applying a new rom on this phone. I previously used the Eris which while it was a pile it would root and rom in 5 steps all of which were clearly outlined in one Thread. Is there a thread like this that I am just not finding? It as I read through the forum it seems like this has gone rom a 5 step process to a 50 step process involving a home computer and 7 different programs.

Can someone clear this up for me?
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
If u are on android 2.3.3 u can't use gingerbreak. Gingerbreak only works for x2 on froyo(2.2.2)

U need to use petes one click method for rooting Motorola devices running gingerbread .
[Motorola Droid X2] i62cm24:
I am indeed on 2.3.3 I will give that a shot.

Any idea on the second question?
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
U will need the system recovery apk that was ported from the ATRIX for now to flash roms. Pretty much just download the zip for rom. Place zip on external sd card.

boot into bootstrap recovery((we have a REAL one on the way from koush but for now the ported world just fine u just NEED to be PLUGGED INTO THE WALL as if u r charging for recovery to come up)

Then go to install zip from sdcard. CHOOSE zip from sdcard. Press yes to install. BE VERY PATIENT. DO NOT UNPLUG PHONE UNTIL ALL DONE AND U CHOOSE REBOOT SYSTEM.

then again be very patient as it will take a while to load the new system while booting. I can sit at the bootanimation for a long time. DO NOT PULL THE BATTERY unless u wanna screw it up.

But before installing any roms first make your nandroid by going to backup/restore ams choosing backup. I always put it on my external sd card. This way if u don't like the rom u can go back to where u were before by choosing restore instead of backup.

And it's usually a great idea to wipe data/cache from recovery before flashing also.

Hope this helps.

I would also recommend looking around the droidforums.net x2 section for some info on flashing. There are a lot of stickies there but I like this site better. More active over here usually.

I don't know what info is in the development forum here but it may be helpful if it has been updated. I never looked at it really. Good luck. Stay informed. Don't.do anything u aren't sure of unless u wanna learn how to sbf(which u should learn anyways just in case...its fairly simple)

[Samsung Infuse 4G] strychninetwitch:
So with any type of lockscreen password I try to put on my phone in any GINGERBREAD ROM, when I try to enter it, it says "Incorrect password" and I can try it until my phone locks itself until the universe ends, but it never remembers it. Not after a reboot, no special ROM (non-GB ones don't have this problem on my phone, however), no kernel. No SD removal.

Nothing works, it just forgets it like I entered something random when I set it and don't remember it. But I do. It happens with any type of lock, pin, password, pattern...

My question is... why gingerbread ROMs? I can put any type of password on any froyo ROM including the AT&T one and it doesn't forget it.

Return phone to Samsung because the only option is defective hardware with a few bad sectors on the internal SD? Or what do I do?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
But... But... Didn't you say that Rogers Gingerbread was perfect and we were all idiots for looking forward to an official AT&T release?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] strychninetwitch:
No, leave my thread and go re-read my post. And then do not return.

I never even mentioned Rogers. How bout you try to actually look at someone's username before you troll them?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] diablo009:
hey buddy entropy, I never realized u were a troll on these forums!!! :)

---------- Post added at 08:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:49 PM ----------

1. Try formatting the internal SD in windows.

2. Try a clean install of ROM on ur phone.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
You said Gingerbread, so by definition you are talking about the Rogers UXKG3 release since that's what every Gingerbread ROM is based off of. There's work on integrating some of the features and fixes from the UCKI3/I4 leaks, but really all I3/I4 have brought us is so far is fixed video recording and a bunch of bad builds.

But - according to your first post here (yes, I DID look at your username) UXKG3 is apparently perfect and we're idiots for looking forward to an official AT&T update and being excited about an official release and the leaks.

So why don't you just stick with ROMs based off of UXKG3 and accept that they are what they are?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tjy8tim:
note to self. don't cross entropy...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] JordanElliott:

[Samsung Infuse 4G] strychninetwitch:
Will try when I get bored with my phone sometime this weekend. I assume format in the same 'file system' as whatever it already is? And default block sizes or whatever they're called these days? Allocation units or something...

But yeah, thanks, will try, will report.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] RockingKK:
Pretty much sums it up right there.

So much RAAAAAAGEEE! and just FYI all 3 types of pins work on my phone... pattern password and pin...

Three years ago today, T-Mobile released the World's first Android-powered mobile phone- the T-mobile g1.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] squish099:
The trusty g1.. Ah those were the days. Mine was a trooper.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tokimaromi:
just left mine this monday :) it did me well but i don't miss it!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] OGtripleOG:
I can still remember the day I got my G1, good memories.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Man of La Mancha:
It was only 3 years ago? Dang...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] thisjustin:
I actually am looking to buy another g1. I loved that phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] d12unk13astard:
Crazy how fast Android blew up in the past 3 years, i didnt really feel the need to get another phone till june of this year, and that's cuz the g1 is probaly the most supported device to this day and has craploads of dev support/kernels/radios/bootloaders to change up the performance of the phone. It really was a great and fun phone to have and play with and i might also just buy another one for my kids to play with!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BobbyDukes707:
Seems like yesterday... I got my g1 because I wanted to be a part of the android revolution. I remember when jesusfreke said he was done and told is that there was this guy, cyanogen, that we should follow... that was back when he was just one guy! Err, I guess he is still one guy, but you know what I mean... so far it had been a great ride...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] albertorodast2007:
Three years?? Damn we are waaay back... at my country android just started to be famous.... it was all about "blackberries" and "iphones" XD XD
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gypsy214:
actually android inc was created in 2003 and sold to google in 2007 thats when they started to make phones
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jsapp:
I went to order the G1 three first day it was released and it wasn't available in my area, so I ordered it for when it was. Under day it was to strove out hadn't come when I left for work (i worked evenings) and I live in a small town, so I drove around until I daw the UPS man, and got him up give me my package. First smart phone I had and android had since ruined me
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rvdangel630:
Still have mine, I loved that phone. By far one of the best keyboards to come out on a phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tokimaromi:
agreed :D and that's why i thought i'd miss my keyboard a lot switching to the g2x but i don't miss it at all
[T-Mobile LG G2x] MisfitX:
I still have my g1 from 3 years ago! Still play with it, had three other daily drivers including my current g2x.. But still play with the g1 its running 2.3.5gb and over clocked to 614mhz still fun...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bankaisnake:
I've ready the other threads on this but to no avail. does anyone have a clue to what I can do to get off the boot screen? i've tried to boot into recovery but it just sits there on the samsung screen. i was on stock ec05 and rooted to 3.0.2.5 (success) then turned phone off and now it won't leave the samsung screen.

any ideas?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
If you read the other threads then what did you try? If nothing works then just Odin a prerooted ROM in and start again.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bankaisnake:
i wish i could but my computer isn't recognizing my phone to even begin that process. it doesn't recognize the phone in odin at all. gives me an error message saying that the drivers aren't present. i redownloaded the drivers and nothing
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Delete and reinstall the drivers. If you don't have the drivers go into development in the top stickies and find the thread about fixing a semi-brick. The first post has a link to 32 and 64 bit drivers.

If Odin doesn't work for you go to the 2nd post and read about using Heimdall...more work but works better than Odin.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] five5outh:
Hey all. Just flashed cm7 and lovin it. However, still a bit laggy when it comes to homescreen scrolling and live wall papers. Is there a rom that can give me that smooth fps? I'm using launcher pro ex ATM... thanks!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sinful Animosity:
Not really. CM7 is about as good as it gets. It has all the Blur bloat scraped off. Every other ROM is still Motorola's ROM with a theme and some tweaks smacked on. Might want to try Aura, but it's still a ROM based off of Motorola.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] five5outh:
Cool, what's different about aura?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:
Might want to try the Aura debloat version. Has most of the Moto crap removed. Its also benching faster than CM7 right now on 1.1GHz. Very smooth ROM with great support. Fingerprint and Webtop both work also.

Assimilated via WinBorg 4G
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Diviance:
It is nice to be mentioned :) Though it is only benching that high on the unreleased version.

It runs well, pretty smooth on the newest, unreleased build of Aura but it isn't flawless. The fly-in animation for the app drawer is noticeably less smooth with a live wallpaper running (on the Launcherpro it comes with, that is) but apps run perfectly fine.

Edit: ADW is a little smoother than Launcherpro while running a live wallpaper.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newalopez:
KOI live wallpaper makes any launcher slow .... weird thing, maybe someone could find a fix, because any LW is slow at least a bit.

should i install them normally or put them in system / app or somewhere
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Pelemane:
Put in system/app.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JaymzBond:
did that and a reboot but nothing changed i cant see theme manager or chooser in my app drawer

i install apks of cm7 themes but still nothing happens
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skifyr123:
If you put .apk's in /system/app you need to change the permissions to rw-r--r-- then reboot ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JaymzBond:
i already put them there by changing the r/o to r/w and rebooted afterwards

still no theme chooser app

and also realised that theme chooser was never installing instead it was giving an error ( actually not an error,just saying its not installed and aborting the process )
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] xmsnx:
Yes but you still need to change the permissions for each file. After moving them, long click on the file and select permissions, change it to rw-r--r-- then reboot and it should work.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saranhai:
I just said phone couldn't boot, told me to wipe data, told them I tried it millions of times already. Eventually they just said ok, and the replacement came about a week later :)

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steven-026:
And my research on rooting continues! Thanks for clearing that up for me, did the eMMC failure occur when changing roms, or just randomly?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saranhai:
ok so here's the whole history of how my phone died:

i was running cyanogenmod 7 and all was well, but i absolutely LOVE HTC sense. it just makes sense you know? :p so i downloaded evil's desire Z port of HTC sense, flashed it, but the phone didn't boot. not sure why. then i flashed the desire HD version also from evil, and the ROM finally booted into sense 2.0, all was well.. but not for long. about 2 or 3 days later the phone started lagging really bad. at one point it just completely froze and i had to do a battery pull. i was fed up! i found a sense 2.0 ROM made by faux and flashed that. all was well, but once again, not for long. after about a week the phone started lagging again, and one night, it just froze and i did a battery pull, and ever since it's been stuck on the splash screen. i booted into clockworkmod recovery and it gave me some errors about not being able to mount /cache partition. someone on XDA told me to flash the PD151IMG.zip file, so i did. and ended up with Fail-PUs. after that i guessed i was truly bricked. it happened around march or so, only a month after i got this phone, and back then, no one knew what was causing these "sudden deaths". but everyone pretty much knew that the phone was screwed, there was no way to fix it, so i called tmobile and told them my issue, and they sent me a replacement (with the good chip woot woot!)

so basically to sum it all up, symptoms of fail eMMC include:

-lag

-clockworkmod recovery shows errors about mounting

-bootloader gives Fail-PU when trying to flash PD151IMG.zip.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steven-026:
Thanks once again! You've helped me out sooo much. Once I root, I'm probably just gonna stick with Virtuos Unity, it just sounds like my ideal ROM, and it seems like the more roms you flash, the higher the chance of eMMC failure.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saranhai:
yes, the more roms you flash, the more you write to the eMMC chip, which will cause it to die faster. Virtuous Unity is a GREAT CHOICE. YOU CHOSE WELL :)

sure no problem bro, this is what XDA is all about, helping each other out.
