Yeah, I am returning my family today. Got my refurb Xoom in, and wow. The thing feels like a tank, took 2 minutes to unlock and flash CWM recovery (I know, I'm slow), then another 10 to find an SD card, put tiamat on it, and flash it up. So easy... I'll be happy to see my xfe go. :-)
[Xoom General] enmriley:
well thanks for the feedback. I gave up on the FE. It went back today. I really am not sure what Motorola was thinking.

Good to know it wasn't just me!
[Xoom General] tincbtrar:
They are thinking of utilizing positional price points. When the xoom 2 finally arrives I think they will keep the fe around as a budget unit so they can charge a premium for the xoom 2.

Most tech users aren't as involved as we are with rooting etc. They just want an affordable piece of hardware that works. :)

I got Sim City to work. I haven't done more than open it, but it's working. I'm trying to get MotoPrint to work.

Is it missing something, or does it need to be signed? I tried installing it, installer opens, and then fails. I tried putting it in the data/app folder and rebooting, no go.

I just rooted my Xoom for the first time, (this morning) so I have a LOT of learning to do. Would really appreciate any advice on the MotoPrint.

Ok. So I assume we need files out of another directory to make motoprint work. Any chance someone could share that knowledge? Or is it the permissions? If so, we can edit them if someone can explain how. I would appreciate. Still new to some of this, including the best way to search. Thanks.
[Xoom General] scramer:
I searched the lib folders and didn't see anything that looked like it would go (but who knows). I have also verified my permissions. But I do think you are correct that we are missing some files somewhere.....
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amnher:
whats their difference and which is newer?

cause I heard floyo is the best froyo rom

The newer version based on date is 2.2.5 but the older one is 2.2.9. Im confused :confused:
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Godra:
Older one as you can see shares code with FB 012 and newer with FB 021b so its newer and better. And BTW floyo used to be great ROM (still is) but now we have custom kernels and fully workable CM7 (Gingerbread) ROMs. If you really want froyo then I sugesst you to use FroyoBread.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amnher:
so the last update is the latest though 2.2.5?

and the reason why I like froyo because of the benchmarking wherein 2d/3d games are higher on froyo. froyobread is buggy thats why ill be trying floyo
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Godra:
Quote from froyobreads changelog:

So its bassically Android 2.2.1 but DX changed it to 2.2.9 (almost 2.3) becasue that ROM had all gingerbread features.

So I've read multiple threads on phones not being able to connect to their computers and none of them can help me.

When i connect my phone with us to my computer it says mtp connected on the phone, but when i try and find the phone on the computer its nowhere to be found. It never used to say mtp connected it was just the usual connection. Once i installed kies on computer it started saying mtp. I just want to be able to connect my phone to send files and usb tether again. Any suggestions? I feel like I've tried everything.

It also doesn't help i don't have the internet. I always used my phones through pdanet.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheKenAnthony:
How did you install kies without the internet? You could try uninstalling drivers deleting kies.. Then reinstalling kies and plugging in phone..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gtuansdiamm:
Leave ur phone plugged in

its gonna take a while but ur comp is gonna install new drivers
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] greeneperson:
It used to connect. So i used pdanet for internet and got kies. It connected to kies once. Next day went to use it again i got nothing. Just said mtp connected on the phone. Tried installing drivers and kies but didn't realize it needed the internet to install kies. I have the kies installer still.

Anyhow long would i have to leave it plugged in for? I had it in for over 15 minutes.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HaiKaiDo:
I actually received a loss of service, which I have never EVER experienced when on stock. I was on ViperROM with that kernel thats supposed to HELP the LOS issue. So no matter what any of you say now in the threads (As there seems to be back and fourth about this) I believe that the rooting...the custom roms...and or the kernels HAVE to have something to do with it. i was stock until about 2 days ago with no LOS and now ive had one. Pretty much confirms for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
Dude, why does this topic have to come up daily after developers themselves, and even SPRINT, has said rooting has NOTHING to do with it?

Correlation does not imply causation.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HaiKaiDo:
And companies never lie and are always correct ;]. Its quite possible that the method in which root is obtained on this phone might have some adverse unexpected effects that not even sprint would know about.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
You think that Sprint would admit to a problem that is actually the fault of hackers screwing with their phone? Come on man.

I had LOS 3 times the first day I had this phone... it wasn't rooted until day 4.

I trust developers on this site that clearly have stated LOS is

not

caused by rooting

http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...bug-on-some-devices-and-sprint-is-not-amused/

It is more than likely that, because the LOS issue lies in both the modem and kernel, changing either one of those can cause the problem to be exacerbated and that's why you are having this issue now, and not before.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eman3316@optonline.net:
Agree..........
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
I believe it mostly has to do with the source the developers used. Stock kernels are fine but the crappy source Sammy gave is not why is the stock kernel on the phone. I believe that is what is causing it.

Sent From My Evo Killer!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HaiKaiDo:
I dont see anywhere that sprint has admited to anything 0_o (surely not that link with a screenshot of some forums post). but anyway, I SAID , root or custom roms or kernels meaning i think it MUST have something to do with being NON stock. there was no reason for you to hone in on root.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BethyM:
Non-Stock -- maybe ... Root doesn't seem to make a difference though. I'm still on stock rom but with root. I have never had LOS. It's the main reason I haven't switched to one of the awesome looking roms that are out there. Above all, I need the phone to work to make calls.

I hope whatever it is, it's fixed in the update!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
Huh?

You don't consider a Sprint Tech employee coming onto the official Sprint forum as an admission of anything?

I'm in love with how ridiculous XDA has become.

http://community.sprint.com/baw/message/339779

http://community.sprint.com/baw/message/342447#342447

Also to be "non-stock" you have to have been rooted/custom binary... so...yeah...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
OP, flash the stock pulled kernel and rejoice. It will be no more a problem than when you were stock. Even if you get LOS occasionally still.... It will be no more than if you hadn't rooted.

I got them before rooting, kernels built from samsungs source are just far more prone. Period.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Rooting doesn't cause LOS...different kernels...well, I am using pulled stock and haven't had one since launch day
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] andygallo:
My E4GT is completely stock (never rooted or flashed) and I had HORRIBLE LoS issues early on. I was dropping signal once every hour or two. I called Sprint CS and they had me clear my data profile and re-update it. Been over a week since clearing/updating my profile and no LoS since.

So based on my experience, it has nothing to do with root or ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] manekineko:
You're never going to be able to convince the vocal crowd here on XDA of the obvious fact that being on a non-stock kernel has something to do with getting LOS.

There are hundreds of people with the exact same experience as you, go to custom kernel = LOS, stock kernel = no LOS. This has done nothing to convince these people.

It's made much worse by the fact that XDA is overrun by newbs these days. I've seen people saying they get LOS on stock kernel, and then I ask them what the symptoms are and they just say they get no bars on the signal, which sucks and all but is completely different from the circle with a slash through it custom kernel LOS. Then, the mob here points at the person's post and says, look even stock kernel gets LOS.

I've given up trying to argue with them.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] reddragon72:
As I have said before this is not just on this phone. The Photon 4G is seeing this issue as well. And the info you just mentioned was passed on to the Motorola Photon forum by me last week and a few Photon owners have done the clear and update and ran two days without reboot/radio lockup. I left the Photon due to this very issue that occurred on my Photon two to ten times a day.

Also I am on the Touch now and rooted using the odex with stock kernel and only one LOS the first day I rooted over 4 days ago. So I am pretty happy that is has not occurred anymore then that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoMatt:
Ditto here. Stock since day 1 without a single LOS, rooted the other day and got a LOS circle with a line through it, within 5 hours. These are just observations. That's on the LoS kernel, which I love otherwise. Battery life seems to be better.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] andygallo:
Um, that was exactly the symptom I got. I even described it right here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18573252&postcount=39

A circle with at line thru it instead of strength bars and my lock screen said "Searching for signal..."

I'm only trying to share my experience in the hopes that someone can find the cause. People are saying they see it when they root/flash, and I'm saying I've see it even tho I've never done either. I don't understand what's with the hostility here.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
No, it's more appropriate to say that you're never going to convince people that WANT to believe something that it's wrong...even if developers and Sprint themselves have clearly stated it's not true.

I experienced LOS before rooting.

andygallo experienced it before rooting.

My brother experiences LOS and is unrooted/stock.

9000 others have experienced LOS with a completely stock phone.

Developers have clearly stated it's a problem with the kernel/modem firmware and not caused by rooting or custom binaries.

Sprint has acknowledged that they, and Samsung, are aware of the issue and are working on it and have clearly stated that it has nothing to do with rooting/custom kernel/ROMs.

What more do you people need?

I don't know why it's so important for you guys to keep trying to peddle the debunked idea that it's rooting or something related.

It has nothing to do with rooting or custom ROMs/Kernels.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] desantim:
Yeah I don't really know how people can refute that it seems to have a lot to do with rooting/kernels/etc.

I had the phone for 2 weeks stock, not a single LOS. Rooted it, had one within a half hour, and one every hour on the dot for the 3 days after I rooted trying every conceivable rom selection/kernel choice.

I then went back to stock and haven't had a single LOS since.

I guess all are different, but there seems to be quite the correlation to me with rooting and getting the LOS.

My 2 cents
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] andygallo:
I can refute it because it happened on my completely stock (never rooted or flashed) phone. I believe you when you say that you saw it after you rooted, so I don't understand why you refute my observations (or anyone elses for that matter)?

I'm not saying that rooting/flashing doesn't bring about this issue, I'm just not convinced that it is THE cause. Rooting/flashing might just TRIGGER the issue.

I am starting to think it may be some sort of issue between loading a new ROM (any ROM) and the existing data profile. That would explain why when you revert, the LoS issue goes away, since ROM and profile are now back "sync".

I think anyone rooting/flashing that has LOS should try clearing and updating their data profile and see if it helps, since it helped me with my phone.

Dunno why my stock one would have it tho, maybe it was upgraded from a previous build? This better not be a refurb.

This is just me thinking out loud, so do whatever, I just want to help isolate this issue (even tho my LOS hasn't come back after the profile update).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] poppygt:
I've tried everything to induce LOS, I flashed every damn kernel and rom available and still nothing. My daily drive takes me through areas with no service and areas with roaming. The signal alert app I have installed goes freaking crazy beeping when I connect and disconnect from service. And not 1 Los. I call BS blaming it on rooting and kernels exclusively, hell I'd be more willing to believe it's hardware related (I'm sure its not). This phone may have a crap radio in it but it tries like hell to always give me something to work with and I really can't complain.
[Defy General] iseenoob:
Hello everyone,

first of all,I want to thank all those involved in this forums.

I'm here trying to have a solution for my defy..I bought it 1 week ago and I used it only the first day!!

My friend told me that I can upgrade android to 2.3,and I can get more apps with 2.3,so he tried to upgrade it but it didn't work.

once I turn on the device,Motorola Logo appear,then Galnet MIUI appear,and it loops unlimited times,it load for 4 seconds then loop again..

after..I told the person who made the video "how to upgrade to 2.3" about my problem..he recommended me to flash by RSD Lite and 3.4.3_11-Stock.UKTmobile_BLUR.sbf ,and then I did everything as he told me but it didn't work..this time I get White Motorola logo with Blur word and it loops unlimited time.

then I flashed again but this time I replaced the sbf file with "JRDNEM_U3_3.4.3-36-1.1.sbf",also it didn't work..this time I get Red Motorola Logo then ANDROID word.it seems to be loop.

I don't know whats wrong,can someone tell me how exactly to flash ?

Because when the program says Please Manually Power up this Phone..idk what to do,it's already on!!so I remove the battery then I power up.

help me please I was happy with 2.2,can I get my defy back to 2.2 just like when I bought it??

my english bad sorry

thanks a lot,
[Defy General] farsight73:
Boot into stock recovery and wipe data / cache. Then flash again any 2.2.2 sbf file. To update into stock gingerbread, your phone must have custom recovery to perform the nandroid restore follow with flashing fixed sbf.

Thanks a lot for replying,

Please excuse me iam really noob :(

I used to boot into stock recovery by Pressing [Volume Down] when i see Blue Led Light,but it doesn't work any more,help plz.
[Defy General] iseenoob:
UP T_T,Please help.
[Defy General] farsight73:
The blue led light is the 2nd-init sequence to enter into custom boot menu.

It definitely gone when you flash another full sbf. But then you have the stock recovery to perform the full wipe.

Booting into stock: Start up phone and press vol- until android logo and follow with pressing vol- and vol+. Now you should be in stock recovery. Do the full factory wipe here.

Next boot into bootloader: Start up phone and press vol+ until you see bootloader screen. Don't worry anything stating in this screen.

Next flash your phone to froyo 2.2.2 sbf. If it still failed. You need to use another Rsdlite version or flash with another PC. It happen alot of peoples having flashing issue which is cause by incompatible PC.(Dont ask me why).

Make sure battery is in good state before flashing.
