Any chance this could be updated to work with euphoria? Really got used to it and now I need it. Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] torturedsoul802:
Played the guinea pig and tried flashing this over Euphoria RC1. Search key popped up recent apps as expected, but the menu key force closes Euphoria Launcher every time. Also, had an odd message in the power menu, looked like a list of permissions (write sd card, etc).
[Vibrant Android Development] jamez243:
Did not work for me... caused problems
[Vibrant Android Development] Tinkerer76:
This this this! I got used to it on Passion and hate having to long press home on Euphoria.
[Vibrant Android Development] bobshute:
I don't have one for Euphoria. Euphoria is based on AOKP but Neo changed the framework. You will get a bootloop.
[Vibrant Android Development] yw2012:
Does the link still works? i tried to click on it on my vibrant and it said the file is not available.
[Vibrant Android Development] bobshute:
Fixed the Passion Link.
[Vibrant Android Development] yw2012:
Awesome! Confirmed that it works now. =)
[Vibrant Android Development] thachosenone:
since long press home already brings up recent apps, what i did was download "exsbar" from the market, and it allows you to map long press search to any application. i use search a lot in apps like youtube, browser, etc. i personally mapped it to camera, so i can launch it from anywhere in the OS.

seems like recent tasks having to be remapped to the search key seems pointless since long press home already does that by default, and that can't be remapped....
[Vibrant Android Development] db3:
i disagree that it's "pointless". Long-pressing seems to have a delay of 2-3 seconds (for me) before the menu comes up. Simply tapping the capacitive keys is nearly instant. it's nice to have instant access to something i actually use.

wish this were available for euphoria. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] thachosenone:
I used euphoria for a bit, but it started having mass force closes, so i switched over to doc's Master ROM, and it's amazing...there's no lag when long pressing home like there was on euphoria. :-)

Revert link is broken.
[Vibrant Android Development] jonen:
will this work with other ics roms? slim ics?
[Vibrant Android Development] trailblazerz11:
Depends..

It's a change made from source so you make the easy change and compile if you have build enviroment

If not the attached zip may or may not be compatible/ideal with your rom due to other modifications with framework/androidpolicy.jar.

Best to pull the androidpolicy.jar from a modded version of your Rom that someone compiled for best compatibility.

---------- Post added at 01:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:09 AM ----------

To revert, Simply pull the android.policy.jar file from the ROM zip and push to frameworks. Also can to change the usr/ cypresskeylayout, make the search key SEARCH instead of APP_SWITCH. then reboot
[Vibrant Android Development] thejaredhuang:
Doesn't work with 5/06 Nightly. Also when I used it with the 5/03 nightly it caused some text to be garbled.
[Vibrant Android Development] trailblazerz11:
Attached my AOKP M5 policy.jar. Just pull the original policy.jar from ROM zip into my zip to revert. (OR easier change in USR. scroll up..)

Probably wont work with CM9 so I can compile CM9 later if you need.

EDIT: Made a new thread with updated zips since OP seems to be inactive as is the original code.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Timboman:
Ok, so here is my issue.

A couple days ago I obtained a Motorola Photon from a third party.

It seems that reason this person was willing to sell me the device for the price I got it at was because it was still linked to a suspended account on Sprint.

After calling them and arguing for quite a while it's become clear that they do not want to release the device unless it's account is payed off and it is removed.

Since that is not likely to happen, I was considering that if I can obtain the MSL using this guide ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1365058 ) I might be able to manually program it with the information from my old phone and skip talking to sprint entirely.

Would this even work? Or am I stuck?

-Timboman
[Motorola Photon 4G] Equalizir:
Your probably stuck.
[Motorola Photon 4G] nyckid211:
Your best bet is buying a working but damaged model and switch out the board. Good luck. Curious, how much is the balance?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Timboman:
The Photon only cost me $70, it was used, but only 4 months old and in an otterbox case, so in perfect physical condition.

I actually managed to get in touch with the person I bought it from and it seems that this might have legitimately been a misundestanding.

Apparently he was on a family member's account, and had recently gotten his own line on AT&T and didn't need his sprint phone, thus why he wanted to sell it.

He's getting in touch with his uncle who is the account holder, and is hopefully going to get it resolved.

If this DOESN'T work out tho, does anyone have any other suggestions on a way around this?

-Timboman
[Motorola Photon 4G] nyckid211:
Good luck with that. Hope it works out for you.
[Motorola Photon 4G] rbeavers:
Great price for an Andoid Touch!
[Motorola Photon 4G] willysp:
No, the MSL will not help. The problem is that Sprint has suspended your ESN, which you can look at as the "unique electronic fingerprint" for your device. For your purposes, the ESN is permanent and can't be changed. You can use an MSL to change the MSID and MSN (IIRC) - i.e. your phone number, but the ESN block stays.

Maybe you can sell it to someone in Europe or Asia for use on a GSM network. IF you can find a buyer and want to go to the trouble, time and expense of doing that. Still don't see you netting $70.

---------- Post added at 10:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:37 AM ----------

As it stands, $0 was the right price for this phone in the US.

---------- Post added at 10:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:39 AM ----------

(1) Unless he CLEARLY told you at point of sale that the phone was blacklisted by Sprint and would be unusable, he needs to give you a full refund immediately.

(2) Pay the Sprint balance yourself only if it's a very small amount like $10-$20. (If it's tied to an multi-line account, the amount is likely much higher) Insist the seller reimburse you.

(3) Sell it outside the US as a GSM-only phone on eBay.

(4) Sell it on eBay for parts.

(5) Small claims court - IF you have a clear bill of sale.

Only (1) makes any sense to me. #2 just gets you in deeper likely, and for #3 and #4, the Photon is not very popular on eBay.

Did you pay by check? If so, cancel.

For others reading this - when you buy a phone from an unknown sourse, call Sprint about status before any money changes hands,
[Motorola Photon 4G] Beach_Head:
I'll take it from you if you want to let go of it. PM me...
[Motorola Photon 4G] Timboman:
Thanks for the very thorough response willysp, but thankfully everything seems to have worked out in the end.

The gentleman who sold me the phone got in touch with his uncle and was able to remove the phone from their account.

I've already talked with sprint and now have the device fully activated on my account.

Honestly this may have only worked out for me because I was holding his personal info "hostage" (He left his SD card in the phone and didnt format the internal storage) but wether it was legit or not, it all worked out in the end.

Even if I ended not needing it, the info was no less valuable.

Thanks for the help!

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] spex714:
So today I decided to restart my phone and it was stuck on the white HTC screen for a good 30 mins (boot loop..)

I went into the recovery and tried to clear the cache thinking that would fix the issue.. but I get this error

E:Format_Volume: make_exf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmc/blk0p35

I have tried flashing different recovery versions onto the device and I am still having the same issue. When I tried to wipe data/factory reset i get this error

E:Format_Volume: make_exf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmc/blkop34

E:Formatting /Cache...

E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmc/blk0p35

also E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log and E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log

keeps appearing...

I have the boot loader unlocked and installed ClockworkMod 5.5.0.4

I never had the device rooted (well I tried but was unsuccessful and never spent more time on it) and was using the stock ROM.

I have tried installing [ROM] RumRaider BETA 11 - 2.3.7 - SENSE 3.5 in hopes of it overriding my problem but that failed too...

I have tried recreating the SD Card partition (internal) in recovery but that didn't work either

Any other ideas? All i wanted to do was perform a simple restart and my phone shot itself in the foot.... :(
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] spex714:
Any ideas?? :(
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] spex714:
I'm guessing noone knows a potential fix?? :( after 500 views... ><"

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] GSLEON3:
It would seem that your device is either not fully rooted, or you installed an earlier cooked rom, no names, that included the stock recovery & boot image. The solution is to take yor unlock.bin file & place your device in fastboot & then either manually shoot the .bin file or use it with HTC Supertool. Then Immediately flash akernel (boot.img) & then a rom.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jtrice0309:

Sounds exactly like that. Definitely start from scratch and flash the initial 1.8.3 SBF with RSDlite.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1136261

The process, depending on how far up the chain of in updates you go, can take a bit of time, but make sure you follow it EXACTLY.

Why were you using a Droid 3 tutorial to root your Atrix anyway?
[Atrix 4G General] e07015:
Unroot

If you can restore to the Stock Moto, then you can use the Moto upgrade software as if you were upgrading to the 4.5.91.

motorola.com/Support/US-EN/Android_Products/ATRIX-4G_Software_Update_Page

It will tell you that you are on the highest version but will allow you to reinstall the software. When it does this, it will unroot and relock the bootloader.
[Atrix 4G General] Purple Drama Llama:
Tried this, but wouldn't work. Said no update available at this time. My phone is 100% stock except the root. I'm on 4.xx, whatever is Gingerbread.
[Atrix 4G General] e07015:
It should ask you if you want to reinstall the software anyway. It basically overwrites the system files. I was on the latest but it still let me refresh it thus removing root.

Are you using the motor update software you download from the motorola website? You install it on your computer then hook up your phone via usb cable.
[Atrix 4G General] panflute:
UNROOT?

OK. I am in the same boat. My Atrix has the latest update and I am rooted. No other mods done. I want to UNROOT, get the next OTA update, then ROOT again. I believe I rooted using ADB, ROOT, ADB FASTBOOT.

I do NOT want to lose my current setup since I have WAY too much time and energy into it and I love it.

I came across this on the web:

Un-root Steps:

1. Open Android Terminal Emulator (see download link above)

2. Type in the following commands, hitting ENTER after each line of code: (after typing 'su' below, look for the Superuser request and approve it, you can only continue if you get the # prompt.

Code:

su mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system mount -o

rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p17 /preinstall rm /system/bin/su rm /preinstall/sqlite3 rm /preinstall/dosu

rm /preinstall/Superuser.apk rm /preinstall/su reboot

3. Let the phone reboot fully and then go into Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > find Superuser and uninstall it just like any other app.

4. You're un-rooted and all files that /preinstall put on your phone have been removed.

I don't know if this will work, or if it will leave my setup unchange, or if there is ANY chance of bricking my phone.

ALSO, there is an app in the market called OTA ROOTKEEPER and several other apps that claim to hide your rooted device so you can get updates, then unhide the root.

Anyone know?

THANKS.
[Atrix 4G General] Purple Drama Llama:
This wont be an issue if the OTA will install perfectly fine with root. Owning the phone since launch day, I recall hearing that if you update with root access it bricks your phone. Is this true or not?

Anyway, @e07015, I used the method on the Motorola website, putting the image on my SD card. I assumed it wouldn't work but tried anyway. What exactly is the method your trying to explain?
[Atrix 4G General] jakson0100:
Having root access might give the user the ability to alter the phone in ways that can effect stability, but root access alone doesn't change anything like that.
[Atrix 4G General] fleurdelisxliv:
pretty sure the bootloader dont relock
[Atrix 4G General] panflute:
Motorola states that the Atrix will NOT be able to install this latest update if the phone is rooted or unlocked.
[Atrix 4G General] e07015:
On the Moto website, there are two options: Manual upgrade or automated update(pc users only). Do the automated update. You download the update tool and then connect your phone to the PC. Once it has recognized your phone, it will check for updates. It will tell you that you are on the latest version but asks if you want to reload it anyway. Do that and it will clear root and relock. Good Luck.

---------- Post added at 07:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:43 AM ----------

I thought so also but after restoring to stock using the Moto Automatic Update tool, I rooted and tried to restore an old backup using CWM. It was giving me an error that my bootloader was locked. It no longer had the unlocked text at startup but I though it was still unlocked. Went through the unlock process again and then it let me use CWM again. Based upon this, I now assume that you can relock the bootloader.
[Atrix 4G General] gonecks1:
I've used the auto update tool and it tells me I'm current but doesn't give me the option to reinstall. If I have the zip from moto, can I just load it using clockwork mod? I went back to stock using a fruitcake on here, but I'm still unlocked and rooted. If the upcoming soak test is ICS (very doubtful), I want to be able to update
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] tase25:
Besides a full body skin like the ones from Skinomi or Zagg, does anyone know of any really thin cases for the Desire Z?

I find the phone bulky enough and don't wanna add any more to it :)

PS. Anyone recommend any fully body decal/skins for this phone besides Skinomi? I like the carbon fibre look.
[Kindle Fire General] groovdafied:
Hey everyone,

So I'm taking online classes for web design and new media, and it deals a lot with online reading, video watching and I have to do my assignments on my Macbook pro.

I was thinking of getting a tablet that will allow me to read my text books easier and watch my instructor videos while I work on my laptop. I know it only has 8GB's of storage, but I would only load in one week's worth of video at at time that can equal up to about 100+MB total (or use my Mac as a media server and just stream it).

I don't think a 10" tablet is the way to go for me, because I want something a bit more portable and obviously low cost with a quality build. So I came across the Fire and did my research, I feel like I'm sold on it and I come here to get your opinions on it too.

I've had an iPad before, it's cool, heavy and large.

How's the email experience?

Does the browser support flash and how is the browsing experience?

Can I download the Dolphin Browser on this? Or is the default browser better then Dolphin?

I appreciate your thoughts and opinions.
[Kindle Fire General] grvthang:
From what you describe, the Fire should be a good fit for your requirements. It supports flash, the native email app is adequate,

And it will run Dolphin browser.
[Kindle Fire General] lathode:
The dolphin browser doesn't show up on the stock market. I bought the Kindle because I can mess around with flashing custom ROMs. If that's not your thing I'd suggest looking at the Blackberry Playbook. More storage and better stock experience I believe. There is supposed to be an update this month to add an email client. Not sure if there's a different one in their market.
[Kindle Fire General] dovazaan:
Well I got the KF not too long ago (maybe 2 weeks) but I think its a solid device. Email is fine on it, but i'm sure if you don't like it, you could side load others. The device has flash in the browser and you can side load just about any browser as long as you have the APK. The default is okay. I prefer either dolphin or opera though.

Well the devices specs say it has 8GBs but you will only be about to use about 5. It sets different storage for different things. 1gb for applications 5gbs for sd storage. You can put your media on the amazon cloud though and stream it.

You could go for the New Nook. I believe it has 16 Gigs internal with an SD card slot. as well as a gig of RAM. I'm not too sure on its stock performance, but there's a forum for it on this site, so i'm sure it can be rooted.

In my personal experiences with the KF, I have had no problem with it and I really love the screen. The glare can be a downside, but if you plan on using services from amazon go ahead and get it. If not, you could always root+recov and run cm7. :D
[Kindle Fire General] groovdafied:
Thank you all for your comments! And yes, I do have an amazon credit account and regular account, so that's definitely something to add to the pro's. I was thinking of flashing it, but for my purposes, I think the stock OS will do just fine. How much cloud storage do you get? I already have the 5Gig free, but do I get any additional storage with it?
[Kindle Fire General] dovazaan:
I believe all amazon related data (like books or amazon mp3) is unlimited. But anything else is capped at 5gigs. Not 100% sure though
[Kindle Fire General] tctim:
it only stores amazon stuff and its a dollar a gig beyond 5
[Kindle Fire General] staffman28:
What the Amazon app store doesn't have I get at 1Mobile Market and getjar. 1Mobile seems to get the updates more regulary then getJar though. They have Dolphin HD which works better then stock IMO, along with drop box, and box. Which is 5gb free each with those. Box had a free 50gb promo awhile back which i was able to get in on. Not sure if they are still doing it though. I run stock and they all loaded easily through the 1Mobile app. I also got the facebook and twitter apps from there as well and have no complaints so far.
[Kindle Fire General] grvthang:
There's a low-key special going on right now at Walmart - buy a Kindle Fire for $199 and get a $50 Walmart card. So, in effect, you're paying $149 for the Fire. I don't how much longer it's going on, but that's a great deal.
[Kindle Fire General] Th3-Chronikk:
