The Inspire has more that 1gb memory? Or are you talking about storage space? My version is 2.3.5, just got my phone Sunday if that matters.

Yeah, I don't get why so many people are sleeping on this phone.....it's seemingly getting no love from Moto themselves or AT&T cause it's selling for $50. This device is easily on par with devices like the SGSII in many aspects, but hasn't gotten the Marketing dollars of that device has gotten, but I appreciate it cause I was able to get a hell of a phone for $50.

I love this phone! It's very snappy, smooth as butter, battery life is impressive especially considering it's got a larger screen than my old phone as well as a smaller battery. I'm going on 13hrs on the battery, spent about 1.5-2hrs on "4g" data, few texts, few phone calls, a little exploring other apps and setting them up and what not and I still have 70% battery left. The phone itself is very sexy, fits well in my hand, the screen size is perfect and plenty bright, pixel density is wonderful and the camera is as good if not better than the one on my X10, which I thought was pretty damn good.

I took this pic while I was watching the Detroit Lions game the other day, room was completely dark.

ICS would be the cherry on top for this phone....actually, root would, but I'll take ICS:D

Guys, what's the free memory size of 1Gb RAM and 8Gb storage?
[Atrix 4G General] cheetablaze:
On fresh boot it's around 525 ram free and 4.3 gb available for use
[Atrix 4G General] 09CarreraS:
How long is the battery lasting for most people. I have a gmail push, weather widget, and facebook. I am getting about 12 hours. Is this normal? The post above Form 916x10 has his phone lasting several hours longer according to post.
[Atrix 4G General] mkoby:
I've been getting around 13-16 depending on my usage. Right now I'm sitting at close to 14 hours and that's with listening to music in the car on my hour long commute (each way), plus background syncing for google, twitter, facebook, and beautiful widgets. Though I set Twitter & Facebook to 2 hour sync intervals (because I tend to check them routinely throughout the day), and I set beautiful widgets to every 4 hours and refresh on unlock.

Last night I was at 10% after 16 hours (and that was with watching a Doctor Who episode off netflix).

The battery life on this phone has been fantastic for me, some days doubling that of my previous Captivate.
[Atrix 4G General] trmpt4him:
Loving my A2... Just switched from Vzw fascinate to the at&t A2 and I thought I loved the fascinate. This phone is incredible! Fast, smooth and I am getting great battery life, about 16 -18 hours. Up at 6 am and down at midnight. I had an extended battery with the fascinate and was recharging by 3 pm our sooner. I don't like the ginger bread 2.3.5 compared to froyo. It does not seem to have as many options. For example I could set my vibration intensity on froyo but not on gb. Also, I can't change the flipping the pages do when changing screens. I just don't like it. Also, it did not come with mini hdmi cable like the A did.

I did however get a great deal. 24.99 x 2 @ at&t store plus 2free flight 2's for my kids. The sales rep even through in the hdmi cable from his personal stock (which makes this phone the best I have ever had and the video on my 42" flat screen was crisp and sharp)

I am overall very, very pleased. Icing will be when rooted our upgraded too ics.

Has anyone tried unlocking the phone? I want to get the Atrix 2 but dunno if there's an easy way to unlock it so I don't have to use AT&T's network.
[Atrix 4G General] malickie:
Glad your liking the phone. As for the UI, Part of the customization has to do with Samsung's UI as opposed to Motorola's UI, you are going to notice differences between both due to the fact that manufacturers cannot and will not use the same exact UI across platforms. The only time you will get a standardization of UI is Via CM7 or sticking with every Nexus that comes out because those are straight vanilla so should for the most part have the same UI options.
[Atrix 4G General] trmpt4him:
That explains alot! LOL :) Thanks.
[Atrix 4G General] Gadgetz:
My phone has been on for 21hrs now and still at 51% after yesterdays moderate use. Battery life is awesome!
[Atrix 4G General] mic_crispy:
Ive had my atrix 2 for a week. Love it so far.

I REALLY didnt want to get a phone that had a screen larger than 4in, but when i actually handled this phone it felt the same size as my OG atrix. Its thinner and makes good use of the bezel (IE not too much space between the end of the screen and the end of the phone).

MUCH smoother than my atrix with 2.3 also. I can run a live background with widgets etc and its not choppy at all.

QUICK ISSUE.

Ive noticed this today, but none of my pictures i was taking have been saving... I would take it, i could view it for a second, then it disappeared. I restarted the phone and it looks like they are saving now... but that seemed odd.

And it cannot tell the phone to save my pictures on the phone memory, nor can i view the phone memory on my pc.

Also, how much memory does yours display? after my SD card, mine has about 4.16gb on the phone memory... does the OS etc take up the other 4gb??
[Atrix 4G General] malickie:
I actually ran into that same exact issue with photo's once and yea it was odd but your right rebooting fixed it, just a random odd issue as far as I have been able to tell. As for the phone memory at the moment until Dev's can get into the device and tear it apart and what not the phone memory is totally inaccessible and as far as I can tell is Strictly used for app storage. So right now I wouldn't store Any apps on the SD Card as there is more than enough storage on the phone for them. I mean I would of course backup the apps to the SD card but as for having the active apps moved to the SD card seems semi sorta mute point as all that memory on the phone is strictly limited to storage of apps which seems very odd considering when you buy this device they only include a 2 GB SD card which pretty much any phone I have bought that does not have access to the phones memory includes an 8 GB so I am guessing that they plan to let access to that part of the phone in some sorta update I would hope, and or dev's figure out how to get access to it.
[Atrix 4G General] mic_crispy:
Thanks for the quick reply. Makes sense, just odd.

I hope the camera issue was a once off... id hate to snap that "once in a lifetime photo" only to have it delete.the 2 GB card is pretty lame. Glad i had a 16gb, but since this phones internal memory isnt accessible, ill have to get a 32gb. Anyway, not HUGE issues.

Battery is better than my OG Atrix, screen is MUCH better... colors look better, brighter (it would seem), and it responds to the touch better. phones thin, holds a signal well. the 21mbps "4"G is really fast, in Dallas and Orlando at least. And my battery has been great with juice defender. No dropped calls yet.

I spent 50$ for it at Best buy.

I actually tried a 9810 between my Atrix and this. Returned the 9810 obviously.

Only other phone id consider would possibly be a 9900, just for that keyboard...

---------- Post added at 11:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:33 AM ----------

Also, for the skeptics, I understand it wasnt a HUGE upgrade.

But i think motorola Made the right move. NOTHING will compete with the 200$ iPhone 4s right now (not in terms of performance, but in customer perception etc...)... releasing anything more drastic (which would involve a cost hike) around the time of a iPhone launch is just set for failure, sadly. Its the truth.

This price point etc, they have more of a chance of pulling some customers from a OG iphone 4 and free 3gs.

But to us of those who know, i wouldnt buy a 4s over this, even if it was $100 or 50$.. just preference.

[Atrix 4G General] katamari201:
Please have some way to root or unlock the Atrix 2 so that I can use it on T-mobile network. I'm not concerned about 3G/4G bands or anything since I just use wifi. That's the only thing holding me back since I need sim unlock to use my T-mobile sim card. Am also aware that TechRadar has an Atrix 2 review coming up and apparently they will release an unlocked version in Europe, but that one would undoubtedly be way more expensive than the subsidized ATT version being sold on ebay. Crossing fingers X , would appreciate it!
[Atrix 4G General] donharden2002:
Apparently the only way we will get our own forum is if the atrix 2 does get released on Europe.

If your on tmo why not get the new htc amaze? If it's a price thing I understand but if not it's a beauty of a phone. I'm not saying it's better or worse than the atrix 2 but it sure does look great.

[Atrix 4G General] malickie:
As far as I know even with the OG Atrix the Only way to get the device Unlocked for another Network would be to go to a website that can get it for you or get in contact with AT&T after you have had a contract for at least a year. The only cellphone's I have owned that I was able to move around networks with without having to pay a website and or wait for the network to unlock it was the iPhone and HTC Cellphones because you can S-Off them fairly easy.
[Atrix 4G General] katamari201:
I guess I will have to wait until the international one comes out before this phone gains some support! The Amaze is nice looking but it is $200+ more than the Atrix 2 on eBay (I buy everything on eBay) and I've asked around about the bad audio recording and whether it could be fixed, to no avail. I've owned Samsung Galaxy phones before and it is very easy to unlock their phones. You just need to root and run an app that gives you the unlock code. I am completely new to Motorola and their phones have usually been Verizon non-GSM phones or really expensive international ones so yeah haven't paid much attention until the Atrix 2. I'm surprised there's no one click solution for unlocking. I thought people loved the Droids since the first one. Or maybe its just this one phone. I have to go look around some more...
[Atrix 4G General] pilboyz:
anyone have already unlocked their att atrix 2?
[Atrix 4G General] djyuran:
I've just got Atrix 2!

Don't understand how to have access to internal 8gb storage.

I'd like to keep some video files there.

[Acer Iconia A500] jrichardsMav:
Just flashed my a500 to Taboonay 2.1, from HoneyVillian, when I go to about tablet here is what i see:

Model Number: A501

Kernel Version: 2.6.36.3HoneyVillain-3.4+

Build Number: Taboonay 2.1(7.006_COM_Gen1)

Why is reading as A501, also when I see the lock screen it says:

Please Insert Sim

and under battery use, I see a "cell standby" item.

What's the best Rom to install to get rid of all this?
[Acer Iconia A500] kjy2010:
How about a ROM built off of a stock Acer A500. :rolleyes:
[Acer Iconia A500] jrichardsMav:
Any more details on the ROM in your sig?
[Acer Iconia A500] kjy2010:
You won't like it. I cooked it especially for me, and my needs.

Try the DEV section, as there are more than enough to choose from. Just choose one based of of Acer's HC 3.2.

;)
[Acer Iconia A500] crashpsycho:
i know that when i flashed tabooney i opened the original zip folder and removed the a501 file from it and build prop showed as a500 falshed and it worked fine shows a500

for the "insert sim card" message Use ES

explorer with root and writeable permissions go into "/system/app/" look for phone.apk, then rename to "phone.bak" it will say to force close like crazy, reboot into recovery wipe battery stats should take care of it.

Hello everyone my first post!

ok i just installed "font installer" from the market

i did a back up of my original font and start to change fonts. anyway some of them made Timescape force close so i decided to go back to the original one but now it doesnt look like the original one

i tried to restore back up (from the app) and even tried the stock font included but nothing:(

i back uped the rom with xrecovery anyway but i wanna know if somebody has the original ttf

Hi all, the name's not a joke...I'm a proud Noob.

Anyway, I'm new to all this rooting stuff. I am running Mik2.55 & Agressive Freedom 0.9. I've had them installed for 5-6 days, which is just about as long as I've been rooted.

What am I doing wrong?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Papa Smurf151:
First of all ur using sense which can hog ur battery. Also u might want to try callibrating ur battery (u can find links in this forum on how to do this . Then using an app like battery callibration (free in market) u can help get better battery life by wiping ur battery stats (must be done when battery is 100% . Also SBC kernels can help as well. Right now there r no SBC kerenels out for sense roms that are based on gingerbread. There are SBC kernels for froyo based sense roms and also cm7 based roms (which r based on aosp gingerbread). Hope that helped a little
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Concordium:
Try flashing a HAVS kernel with somelike like a conservative cpu profile. That should help with your battery. I am currently running CM7 with Poonkang kernel on a conservative/powersave cpu scaling and my battery lasts all day.

Also, because you're a noob, you need to know that using kernels with SBC has been known to cause damage to batteries. So before you flash a kernel with SBC, as mentioned above, do some research on SBC and it's potential dangers. Then decide for yourself whether or not you are willing to try it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
Yeah, ummm, that scare ended months ago. I DARE you to find one verifiable case where that happened in the last year. Stop spreading fear.

Don't scare him on sbc batteries. My friend I have been using sbc kernels for at least a year with a Chinese branded battery with no issues. A while ago a few people and mind you a very small amount of people had issues and it was never really proven that it was directly caused by sbc kernels and not cheap batteries. The decision is yours at the end of the day but understand there are 1,000's of us using sbc with no issues at all.

The sky is falling the sky is falling....there I went ahead and helped press ur panic button. That "sbc scare" was a hoax created a very few idiots on here for the sole purpose of being retarded and causing problems on xda. There has not been one proven case nor one bad thing happen to anyone using an SBC kernel. Quit spreading rumors and panic on this forum. Just cause u drank the koolaid doesn't mean u need to pass it along.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Huge Noob:
Yeah, I've read a lot of the pro and anti on SBC's....I must say, they seem to be more in danger of sparking a fistfight than blowing up a phone!!!

I didn't know that sense was a power hog...gotta confess I really like it. I was running Agg. Freedom 0.9, I switched to Chop Suey 9.2.6 today....one of you guys mentioned trying a HAVS kernel....is that one? If not, is one of the other Freedom kernels or something like Golden Monkey a HAVS?

By the way, those El Cheapo batteries on eBay are too good to be true, right? You get like 15 of them and a wall charger for a dollar + shipping. Is there any legitimate source for a battery that improves performance without emptying my wallet?

Thanks!

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Concordium:
Hmm....lots of butthurt people in here getting defensive about the integrity of their SBC feature. I said SBC "has been known," meaning it is what I have heard. I also went on to tell him to do his own research on the topic and make up his own mind. Nowhere in my post did I say that his battery would explode and that he needs to stay away from SBC at all. Forgive me, but I prefer that people have ALL information and be directed to read about POTENTIAL issues that may or may not exist so that they can investigate further if they so choose. This is supposed to be a constructive forum. So next time please provide your constructive personal experience with SBC and leave your smartass comments on Facebook where they belong.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sagarparmar:
I today got my MT4G replaced. It bricked because of that eMMC chip issue. I must carrier unlock it to use it. Now to that one of the options is to root and get the S-OFF.

But, I am worried about the same thing happening again. What will happen if it again becomes a paper weight? Should I use unlockyourphone.com or something?

Plus, it has 2.3.4 preinstalled. so is it possible to root it or do I need to downgrade?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
Please check here to determine your eMMC chip type and only if you have the good chipset, will you be alright to root without fear of a brick.

Why pay for someone to unlock your phone when you can do it in 20 minutes even if u have to set-up ADB...?

You will have to downgrade first to Froyo, yes.

**********But first check the link to see what chipset you have***********
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
And even if you have the "bad" chipset - it'll still be better to root and unlock. Only a small percentage of "bad" chips are actually bad and prone to failure.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teo032:
Don't worry too much about bad emmc chips. not all "bad" chips are bad. it simply means there is a higher chance of you getting a bad uhh phone. But most "bad" chips are able to flash perfectly fine.

Both good and bad chips have been known to brick, but the bad one is slightly more susceptible to bricking.

Mine is bad and I've been flashing non stop since Michael Jackson was still bad
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sagarparmar:
Haha :D

And one more thing, are there any cases where non-rooted phones also got bricked?

Let's say, I get PIN for unlocking and then it bricks. Is it safe to even own MT4G? :P I am more worried because I am using it outside the states. If I were a tmo customer, I could always get a replacement.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VolcanicSkunk:
Bricking should be very rare for stock phones. The only way I can think to brick would be to pull the battery during an OTA update.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sagarparmar:
I only want Sim unlock. I can do it via gfree. So here is what I am thinking.

First gain temp root with visionary and then push gfree (Follow 9 steps as per guide.) Any idea if ./gfree -f is required? Because I only want sim unlock(without root / s-off), I want to run ./gfree -S directly. Is this possible?

I am currently on 2.3.4 stock image. I will have to downgrade to 2.2 and follow the guide. But will I be able to again update to 2.3.4? Will lose the sim unlock?

THANKS IN ADV
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VolcanicSkunk:
I do believe that that is possible. When I first did got root I used the root.sh method not the gfree method. Afterward I wanted to be able to Sim Unlock too. So a few months ago I did the gfree -S and my phone was fine. Granted I already had root, but I don't think that should be an issue. Also, back up your sd card first. Not sure why, but when I did the gfree it borked my sd card. I wasn't able to restore to my previous backup. I had to start over and reformat my sd.
