[Atrix 4G General] Flowsick:
I don't believe so, but I'm not sure. I modified WebTop to work over HDMI without an unlocked bl so probably just root access is fine.
[Atrix 4G General] HeavensSword:
Hey guys, sorry if this has been asked elsewhere, but is it possible to get Landscape mirroring working with stock 2.3.4? (Rooted)

I really only want it so I can play my emulators over HDMI and was hoping I wouldn't need any custom ROMS.
[Atrix 4G General] Zero-K:
Pretty sure it's not possible. Few have tried, but had lots of problems with FC's and such.
[Atrix 4G General] HeavensSword:
Ok, thanks for the reply.
[Atrix 4G General] cowsaregreat:
For what it's worth -- and I only just did this a couple weeks ago -- the Darkside rom does have landscape mirroring capability, and it is decidedly faster than using the webtop over HDMI. No, it's not at full 1080P; yes, every once in a while it gives a minor skip; but it works smoothly without issues and is a great feature of the phone now.

So if you're willing to take the plunge with unlocking the bootloader, you'd likely be happy with the results for your emulator.
[Atrix 4G General] HeavensSword:
Hmm I'll consider it. I was all for flashing it with a ROM when I first got the phone, but since it took awhile before people were able to unlock the bootloader I have become use to the stock blur. :(

I guess my only real concern is reading stuff like "must perform a complete wipe before flashing the ROM". What exactly would be the general process? I take it I would backup all my files and apps and then just re-add them after applying the ROM?

Honestly if darkside is pretty stable (no random crashes or bugs) i think I'll go for it; I definitely love the idea of having a portable snes/psx/gba/etc. that i can just connect straight to a tv and pull out a BT controller.
[Atrix 4G General] cowsaregreat:
Darkside is pretty "noob friendly" (why I went with it first, ha!) -- it retains motoblur, but themed, and if you're used to the stock experience you'll already know your way around the phone. Looking around the dev thread some people have had random things not working; I've had exactly zero problems or issues to fix. I'm on a US Atrix, AT&T.

I used this friendly how-to when unlocking my bootloader and flashed the ROM. Highly recommended. In general, the process was:

- Get Titanium Backup (for apps) and Mybackup Root (for SMS/phone logs/etc) from the market for free; use these to back up your user data. Unlocking will reset your phone to factory.

- Unlock bootloader and install romracer's recovery. Make complete nandroid backup using that recovery; it's like a "restore point" if you ever need to go back to stock. (At this point I needed to go to bed, so I took the opportunity to restore my apps and data to make sure everything was still there. It was. So I was still on stock Gingerbread, with root access retained and an unlocked bootloader.)

- If you read the OP in the Darkside thread, he recommends a specific set of instructions to ensure a clean install: you first "fastboot -w" in fastboot mode to do an initial wipe, then reboot & enter recovery mode to clear three specific caches. THEN flash the rom, as you've placed it on your SD card by this point. The instructions are pretty clear -- follow as described and you shouldn't have any problems.

Finally, the emulators I have are nesoid and snesoid; they both work great on my TV. I haven't used an n64 emulator which is likely more demanding on the processor, but so far I'm happy.
[Atrix 4G General] HeavensSword:
Awesome! Thanks for all the help, I really appreciate it.

If I get some time tonight I think I'll take the plunge. :)
[Atrix 4G General] Punkrocknerd:
:

Darkside was my first custom rom flash, honestly can't be happier. The LS hdmi mirror is a little choppy but not to bad. Just change Settings -> Hdmi-> Overscan. Good luck, and make sure to calibrate your battery!:D
[Atrix 4G General] HeavensSword:
Well I have Darkside flashed on my phone successfully. Once again thanks for all the help. :D

Thanks for the tip and I just installed the battery calibration app from xda. ;)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oddfuturejoey:
Coming from the evo I can tell you I had never heard of Odin or anything like that. My question is this : I am rooted on stock now (yes I have superuser, yes I have Cwm recovery.) But I wanna flash another rom. To do that, do I have to use Odin? Or can I just dl the zip file for the Rom, flash it and go on with my life?

Also, when I flash the rom will it change my recovery? Do roms come with their own kernels? And.if they do: do those kernels come with their own recoveries?

Sorry if its wordy but I'm kinda lost Lol

Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Samsung is not like other platforms where the recovery and android kernels are separate. The same kernel used for Android is used for Recovery. Also when people here refer to kernel/zImage, they actually are referring to the kernel+initramfs (not the core linux kernel only)

The true linux kernel doesn't decide recovery, but since initramfs is packed with the kernel with the whole think being flash together, effectively you get whatever recovery came with the zImage you flash.

You can just flash the ROMs from CWM. No need for ODIN.

Some ROMs include kernels, some don't. If the ROM came with a kernel, you'll get whatever recovery that kernel came with.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oddfuturejoey:
First of all, thanks for replying so.quickly. secondly, will my nandroids work? Because if I make a nandroid now, it'll get saved with cwm but what if I flash a new rom? Will I be able to restore this nandroid from that new recovery? If so, will the nandroid restore take me back to the recovery I have now?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
You should be able to restore them. The only issue might be some versions of CWM can look for the NANDROID backups on internal and external SD and some only look on external.

All the CWM/kernels in the Auto Root sticky can look for them in the internal and external SD and as long as you have root you can install one of those kernels (EG30+CWM, EG31+CWM and EK02+CWM are included) You can even install from the phone without a PC using terminal after copying the files to sdcard.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] papalazarou:
Hi guys,

I can't install or update apps anymore via the market. This has happened once before, I cleared the market cache with no luck and ended up resetting the device. Now it's happened again, and I'm wondering if there isn't an issue with the internal SD card. The firstntime the SD card was reading as -.04238472mb or something and I haven't seen anyone else report this as an issue on 3.0.1.

I'm holding out for the 3.2 update vodafone just announced, hoping that may fix it? Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
[Atrix 4G General] leadguy68:
Well, thought I'd see if this was normal still... or what the deal is:

My Atrix has had really slow data speeds since I upgraded to 2.3.4 using the leaked image.

I have confirmed it is overly slow based upon two tests: I am getting consistently 1.8mb/s down and 300-400k up in the same room as iPhone and other ATT users getting 5+ down and 2+ up consistently. AND the 3 surrounding ATT towers directly in surrounding me are upgraded to 14.4 HSPA+ with increase backhaul (confirmed on ATTs site and by local reps).

Any ideas? The phone is not unlocked or anything really done to it other then rooting.

Google search v6 supercharger by zeplinrox

(FROM XDA OFCOURCE

Use this script with script manager in market (free

Insatll it makes phone faster also were you find the download look for 3g Turbo charge use it after the v6 script they work well!

Also should consider unlocking and

Rooting and flashing custom roms

They run better 1 there pachage size is smaller so its less impact on your system

2 custom is cool lol cm7 on an attrix is beast! So is alienv4 with Oct kernal ofcourse. .... try option 1 first

Just a heads up the new Facebook app works great on the fire, I backed it up with es file explorer and emailed it to my fire. So far it runs perfect, no force closes yet!

EDIT: updated post with new 1.8.1 apk
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] RJ McKenzie:
Can you upload the .apk file? I'm getting errors while trying to backup the app.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] antipunk:
apk is uploaded to op.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] RJ McKenzie:
Sweet, thanks. Do you know why I would keep getting errors when trying to backup certain applications?

Thanks for uploading this.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] RJ McKenzie:
The new version of Facebook has been working great. I don't have the issues with the force closing anymore.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] Xdpker06:
Work's great and looks much better than the old version.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] munit85:
came here just to find this and here it is.

thanks
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] Snak3x:
Works just great. However it's kinda annoying to have two facebook applications(although the original one is just a link).

How do I remove the original FB app? (I'm rooted)

Installing the new one didn't replace the old one.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] antipunk:
Titanium backup
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] RJ McKenzie:
Using the application Root Explorer navigate to /system/app/ folder. Then tap the Mount R/W button on the top. Long press on the Facebook.apk and then choose delete.

There should only be one Facebook file in here and that is the one that came with the device. If there is more that one delete the one which file size is smaller.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] Snak3x:
Thanks.

Thanks. Since I already have Root explorer installed I tried your method & it worked like a charm.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] ipskang:
I deleted from system/app but still its shown on the menu

Then I hide the old FB icon and FB1.8 is working fine

Thanks for app!
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] eoy4:
you have to reboot after deleting it :) Also, i just renamed it to Facebook.apk.bak, just in case.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] RawRmon:
Darn...

When ever I dowload the APK it just tells me that it cannot open the file... Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] RJ McKenzie:
You using the same one that is posted on this thread?
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] RawRmon:
Got it to work, I just used opera mini instead of amazon's browser. Those treacherous bastards... lol

For some reason with amazon's silk browser, it'll download but when you try and open it, it won't let you.

Use a different browser if you are having the same problem as me.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] RJ McKenzie:
That's good that you got it to work. Another good alternative browser to try would be Dolphin. Opera Mini messes with the web pages too much for my liking. Good if you don't have much bandwidth though.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] RawRmon:
I tried dolphin, not sure I liked it. For some reason I was unable to zoom in to pages. So I deleted it and switched to opera mini. I did like the look of dolphin a heck of a lot more.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] eoy4:
A little off-topic, I know... But Dolphin browser HD is the best one i've seen so far for the KF. Much better (and faster?) than Silk and Opera Mobile (haven't tried opera mini). And of course you can zoom into pages... :S That's weird.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] ryanlbowen:
Has anyone successfully installed and logged into the Facebook apk on a non-rooted Fire? I'm having no luck
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] xabbott:
Working fine for me. I just backed the apk from my phone and installed it on the kindle fire via dropbox.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] ryanlbowen:
that worked great, thanks! wouldn't work installing fresh apk, but backing up from phone worked.

Hi, I have downloaded and installed but it said "Application not install..."

Can you help me solve this problem?
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] RJ McKenzie:
I don't think anyone has figured out that issue yet. For some reason it does that on random. Try using a backup from your Android phone.

Anyone know where?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bigsam411:
In my opinion the main problem with this launch is that Google and Samsung allowed Verizon to take control of it. I hate to compare to Apple, but they take full control of their product launches and do not allow the carriers to tamper in any way. Samsung and Google should have grown some balls and had the phone launched their way. If Verizon did not want to play ball then they just release the unlocked version here as they did in the past.

No ETA on this yet how sad just got off the phone with Costco district manager he just received an email about the push back could be awhile
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hotleadsingerguy:
Hmm, that's weird. My company spends just shy of $100k a year on Verizon devices (somewhere around ~800 lines currently)...and my rep is just as unable to get one to sell as anyone else.

And he is the rep for 5 other companies around our size.

I think there's a much better chance you're a Verizon employee or were able to play with one in the immediate vicinity.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BarryH_GEG:
Your bigger rant should be how a company the size of VZW can hose their entire LTE network with each introduction of a new device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ericshmerick:
Yeah, and you can bet that the resolution will be quiet and nothing else ever said of this outage.

"Isolated" will be the spin. I was going to head over to Verizon and eBay the GSM GNEX I have, but I just can't fork over $85 for a tiered plan when I have unlimited on ATT for $40 after taxes (2nd line on plan).

Oh well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jfgirard0423:
sitting at home watching tv more than happy to post another pic! but promise you business rep got it for me! it will be released next week. I know because i did 10 upgrades for a couple of co-workers. thats when he said they will get them. but doesnt matter. dam phone has NO 4g LTE have this bad boy on wifi. But i own a company in the healthcare industry! not Verizon. give you another hint its in TEXAS!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ericshmerick:
Man, you are one posting maniac about your Verizon GNEX.

Congrats I suppose.

Had my GSM version for 3 weeks. Welcome to the club and keep letting everyone know how your business rep put you on a pedestal, lol.

Sorry. Just excited about the phone. Don't mean to be out of line.

lol the op is a joke. He probably wasted 15-20minutes of his life to complain to a whole bunch of people he doesn't eve know :)... ahhaha
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hotleadsingerguy:
Not saying I necessarily don't believe you, just saying the "don't sell yet" thing is pretty hard...they probably aren't even allowing the devices to activate on the network yet.

Beyond that, not a single person knows the date it's releasing now. The update said "indefinite", meaning nobody knows for sure. It's just suspected for next week, at the moment.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jfgirard0423:
I won't promise anything but I will call rep tomorrow for some info
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] marc.ientilucci:
Thanks for the reply king shady, u prob just wasted 5 mins reading even tho u don't care lol. All in good fun tho, just pissed at vz, ill get one sooner or later
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] enumBoss:
I disagree.

Seriously. Think about it from Verizon's perspective. Why would they put money and advertising behind the Nexus phone when they have the Rezound and Razr that just came out and are of similar specs? They control the user experience on those devices and can put their subscription apps preloaded on them. Not true with the Galaxy Nexus. Of course they're going to market the hell out of the devices that make them more money.

That said, I agree that Samsung/Google should have taken more charge with this launch. Nexus devices are about no compromise, pure Android experiences, and no carrier/OEM tampering. What I've seen of the Verizon version has contradicted this in a few ways before the phone is even out. Makes me very happy I got the GSM version. But at least the LTE one is unlocked and there will be plenty of ROMs and support for it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ddgarcia05:
Nice table I got one just like that from walmart.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] automaddux:
here's the thing iphone blows

we all gripe and complain at Verizon for leaving us hanging. the truth is however, they never officially gave a release date for the G-Nex. As a Verizon customer, I have been glued to any news story about the new device since Google first announced it and I am also a little frustrated with it's "delays". But it's nothing to get worked up over. we are all basically upset ecause we aren't getting what we want, when we want it, which is RIGHT NOW!

the last thing is about Verizon's over-involvment with the device. Yes, Verizon should've kept they're nasty hands off it. And yes, Google should've grown some balls and told Verizon to suck it. But they didn't and none of us really knows why. Hell it could have even been a good reason. And who cares really? I mean the people who are concerned about bloatware and carrier restrictions are gonna root as soon as they get it home (maybe before then if your good). And the people who don't care or know about rooting are more than likely the same people who don't care if they're is a V-cast app or verizon backup assistant on they're phone. So really, what's the point? I haven't gotten my hands on this phone yet so call this an assuption ut I think anyone that picks this phone up will fall in love with it just like we did when we ate an ice cream sandwich for the firsty time. The phone will arrive soon enough and we will all be waiting in line just like everybody else so we can get our hands on this tasty device. And while we are waiting spread the word to anyone know who might be upgrading soon. show them the videos and tell them how awesome Android is.

go to hell apple
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hotleadsingerguy:
I'm just posting this to give the valid reasons why you're incorrect.

One, it *was* confirmed by stores across the country. Multiple stores confirmed to me that it was going to be on sale Friday. That's a big deal, for me, because my AT&T month starts on the 14th/15th...if the phone's not out before then I have to pay for another month of AT&T...then a new phone and a month of Verizon. That's idiotic when the phone was already supposed to be out.

Secondly, the reason it's a problem that Verizon got their bastard hands on the device is that people were worried updates wouldn't come directly from Google. The reason people *buy* a Nexus phone is to get the updates directly from Google. In this case, people were very worried that the updates would come from Verizon, like any other phone, which means updates would be delayed 6 months *if* they even released. That's a big problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
In the medical center?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kgbkny:
No real ranting here - just the facts. I got fed up with Verizon's delays, decided to stay with T-Mobile, and ordered a HSPA+ GNex. I get a pure Google phone (although Big Red's intrusions seem to be minimal), and Verizon loses a potential customer with a 2-line family plan. Had Verizon handled this release properly, I would have moved my service over by now.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
but it was never confirmed by an official verizon announcement.

also, your bill will be pro-rated so.. it really doesnt matter when you cancel your service with att/start it with verizon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hotleadsingerguy:
Well, it does...AT&T credits people with gift cards, not with cash back. That means I'll probably get a $50 gift card in the mail (or however much I'm owed) in a few weeks, or placed on my bill. That's wonderful, except I'll have no more need for an AT&T credit lol.

Also, having the stores say, specifically, what day they'll be selling the phones is akin to an official announcement.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
I'm on the same with Tmobile. I have 2 cells, one being a Verizon Blackberry that work pays for. I planned on killing my Tmobile line and upgrading my work blackberry to the Nexus to save some dough.

For me, it just isn't about walking into a store and picking one up. I have to go through work. Collaboration between my work, Verizon, Tmobile, and myself all has to happen in perfect harmony (lol). I've been gearing up corporate about me upgrading this Friday. Now its pushed back.
