[Motorola Droid RAZR] sonicfishcake:
Please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but from what I understand about efuses is that they are usually implemented to stop you downgrading firmware (ie bootloaders in a phone) to exploit vulnerabilities that may be in earlier versions. However they don't stop you from being able to update the bootloader with a newer, official version. If this is the case then it should be feasible for moto to release an updated bootloader that is unlockable (so it is still possible that we may get a variant included with the official ICS update).

After all, one of the OTAs that we have updates the bootloader as well as the android system (to 0A.6C I think?). This stops us downgrading our firmwares using RSD lite (although there is a workaround for that due to you guys)! I think the efuses work in the same way but on a lower level (just for the low-level bootloader software).

In summary, I think (I hope anyway) that the efuses attempt to stop you downgrading the bootloader (but maybe can also be used to specify an engineering revision). The bootloader attempts to stop you downgrading the main phone software.

As an aside are we certain the Razr uses efuses or is it speculation because moto have used them previously?

Any thoughts?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] fitzpete:
So, Kholk, you are saying even if Motorola changed its mind now there is actually no way even for them to unlock the bootloader on our Razrs?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kholk:
No, I'm saying that the only way to unlock the bootloader is them to release a new unlockable bootloader.

Don't get confused:

RAZR Developer Edition is unlockable with the regular RAZR bootloader because of its eFuse content.

In the RAZR bootloader there is a check on an eFuse: it actually reads that eFuse and if its value is set to "0" it allows oem unlock, otherwise it will say "oem unlock is disabled" and won't go on.

That eFuse is set to 0 on the Developer Edition and set to 1 on the regular RAZR.

If Motorola releases a bootloader that won't check for this eFuse value OR that inverts the check, it will be unlockable.

It's all up to Motorola, but since they've released a new device only for it to be unlocked I'm almost sure they won't release an unlockable bootloader for the regular RAZR and probably they've NEVER built an unlockable bootloader for the regular RAZR.

Read this three times:

The Motorola RAZR Developer Edition uses the same bootloader that the Motorola RAZR is using. Flashing the Motorola RAZR Developer Edition bootloader on Motorola RAZR (regular) won't unlock it.

And this just one time:

Motorola IS ABLE TO release an unlockable bootloader for regular RAZR.

Oh, at least, 99.9% it is like that.

The only sure thing on earth is the death.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] fitzpete:
ok, got it. Thanks for your clarification. Not all is lost yet :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Rutz272:
Very interesting info. Always appreciated. Thanks for this.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kholk:
Well, there can still be some hope... but... not trying to be pessimistic, a decision to unlock our regular RAZRs is unlikely... even if technically and from a software update perspective this can be done.

Anyway, happy to help you with those technical details! :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] pulsarvp:
Dear Motorola, I will not buy a product from you again if you don't unlock the bootloader for my GSM Razr.

Dear Moto fans, stop buying their products again and again.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] xTremePower:
Hopp .... ****Moto....

I'm just exchanged my Razr VS Galaxy Note :)

I love the razr quality , design, power.

But hate Motorola compagny..... never again, NEVER a will buy a motorola product (phone or something else), if a see Motorola on the box, I run away

The Galaxy note have a medium design, and plastic, but a great device inside :) and super for see movies :)

By by Moto ....
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kholk:
Heh, I'm trying to sell my regular RAZR, too.... but noone wants it :\

(trying to get a Developers Edition for community's good..)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] xTremePower:
then I exchange mine Vs the Galaxy Note, I explained to the guy the reason, he say : no matter, he want just use it as a nice phone :) no changes or other in the system :)

looks great the Note :) (and need a big hand grab it :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] pswin09:
Yes galaxy note is better than razr except for hardware. TouchWZ is smooth & feel good in hand. Screen is nice. Today went to SingTel shop and try it. Next week will be in hand... Actually I want GS III, need to use note before it come out... I use to change phone every six moth.:D I already disappointed with moto & will never buy moto phone unless Google do some change.:rolleyes:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kholk:
Oh well, I'm pointing to the ASUS PadFone, Tegra3 seems to be sexy.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] pOOBAH1973:
From what I know the dev edition has a different bootloader version than the retail one, so chances are still good.

Also I don't think the dev edition will be engineering phones.. The hardware should be identical to the retail RAZR.

Time will tell.;)

There's a petition started by Daniel Byrne on change.org. I know that it's just a petition, but if enough people sign, it WILL get the point across to Motorola.

I can't post the link, since I'm still a newb, but if you go to change.org and search for Motorola, you should be able to find the petition I'm talking about.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] tommyb13662:
I believe i have root... I have the app and barnacle asked for root access and is working....
[Optimus One, P500, V General] tommyb13662:
confirmed i have root I reinstalled a recovery that was online saying that it fixed the issue and then boom i was back into recovery boot loop without factory reset..... So i again tried to flash a recovery zip. Im back at the point where i have the reset loop and i cant get past it now...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] cure25:
i think your recovery is not properly flashed.so instead of rom manager flash recovery using lgmdp using pc.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] hsrbnr:
I too faced the same problem, to get your optimus fixed,

First you need to flash clockwork mod 5.0.2.0 using LGDMP program. The download Any custom rom preferably AGA rom and flash it via clockworkmod,

OR

the best solution:

Flash Stock Gingerbread rom by LGDMP program.

Its very esay and damn safe!!

Google and you will get LGDMP program and instructions for flashing both.

I own a samsung valencia with "stock" WM6.1 standard and i was wondering if there are any WM roms recently updated, preferably stable that would work without problems on my phone.

I don't know if it maters but the phone was originally made to work with the Vodafone network but i use it with another network.

Please include a way to backup/restore the original firmware if i fail updating it.

Also the phone is non-touchscreen.

Hello... Is it possible to use an android phone as a game controller for pc games?
[Android Themes] mattmanwrx:
Hey Guys,

I have a HTC Desire with an ICS Beta Build on.

I've been playing around with the framework-res.apk and have enabled the "Soft Keys". Althought they are not needed, I want the true ICS features!

However, the soft keys overlap the keyboard which would make the keyboard unusable. See first screen shot!

I have gone through the forum, and have changed the soft keys so they are smaller, but I now think they are a little to small, and would prefer if the keyboard could be moved up, or the "start of the screen" would be better (I have an app that cannot see the bottom of the screen, as i've added the soft keys (have to use my tackpad to move down to bottom option)).

I cannot see anything in the framework-res to move the screen up a bit which is what I would prefer... (that has worked)

I have also decompiled LatinIME.apk, and can see stuff in there in the "Fractions.xml", but what happens if you want to use another keyboard, will all keyboards need to be updated to ICS for them to work properly?

attached is my framework-res.apk, and if any Guru's can help, it would be much apprciated.

Thanks, Matt

PS. I have posted this in the Q+A forum, but no one has come back to me. I'm hoping themers might have a better idea about this (as they play around with framework a lot more!) Sorry if this is incorrect, please delete the thread if it is not acceptable.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
lol? :rolleyes:

Silly them, they are calling them differently but they are same.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_release_life_cycle

Camera is on as much times as you unlock your phone. All "cool" and "fancy" features are most likely battery drain. You wont get anything "for free".

And yes most likely you will have option to disable it.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] ThilinaC:
Visidon app lock plus got the same feature and still beta,yet works ok on Neo V.Sometimes kinda annoying tho,specially at night without any light.So if Sony add this feature I too really hope they will add a Off face unlock option somewhere in settings.

Anyway completely off-topic,but wonder if Sony will give out the 2.3.7 update for 2011 xperia series before ICS release. :rolleyes:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Qwerty123 \m/:
2.3.7 is impossible at them moment

That would be like giving us Vista SP2/3 after the release of the Windows 7 source code

Stupid example ^ But kinda proves my point :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Pandemic:
What a nice talk here ^^, and indeed the camera doesnt work sometime because its a alpha a.k.a. Beta, but its would be nice if it work on 4.0. And no battery drain i think because they say: better battery life, but we shall see;)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcreego:
Hi all, I'm coming from a Sgs2 where Voodoo Louder was perfect but on my Note when I set the audio boost with the slider, for example at +6 dbm, it's ok and it does the boost but when I press the volume buttons on the side of the phon the volume loose the boost and return to the original "Samsung setting".

In the app I have not ticked smart boost option and I have set the limit to +6 dbm so I don't understand why it does this when my Sgs 2 with the same settings doesn't loose the boost when pressing the volume buttons.

I am on Rocket V-20 Rom with AbyssNote Kernel 3.5c.

[Galaxy S II General] kingofthebraves:
Hi guys,

I just sold my "old" SGS2 which I bought on the second or third week of launch of the international version and got a new one. Here are some of the things that I've noticed:

1. Red spot on white background picture while using the camera is GONE. I thought this was a software problem before but I guess it must have been hardware related. Flashed two different roms now including the stock one and still no red spot.

2. Yellow stain on the lower portion of the notification bar is gone. Color is even with no hint of the yellow stain that plagued earlier versions of the unit.

3. Color of the screen is noticeably darker. You wont be able to notice this most of the time but on apps like dialer one wherein the default background color is gray, you can really see a huge difference. Darker but not less brighter, I don't know how to describe it but you can really tell the difference.

4. Capacitive button lights are much dimmer. I tried them on different kernels and roms and they're still dimmer. Not a dealbreaker though.

Overall I am very pleased that Samsung quietly addressed these manufacturing issues :)

*edit* actually I'm not sure if I was just lucky or they really fixed it
[Galaxy S II General] bambollero:
Concerning the screen, you just got lucky. The yellow tint is still here on new batches. One thing I noticed however, is that the two new units I used, had no processor usage interference when headphones were used. Did they add proper shielding or was I lucky as well?
[Galaxy S II General] kingofthebraves:
Actually I think I spoke a little too soon. Apparently the white's and the grays are my screen are a lil darker than usual and a little to the shade of purple. Some people have it as well. My white's are not as white as before but when i turn the brightness up it turns into a pretty good shade of white. But my grays are definitely more purple.
