That's what I did! a nice white one! cant wait till July 9th! never buying moto again!

I almost held off because of dragonzkiller's work and getting CM9 on the DX2 but with VZW pulling a fast one on the Unlimited data I had to make the move. from now on after the 28th going have to pay full price for phones if ya upgrade because they saying if you have unlimited data they will move your plan over after the 28th unless you pay full price for phones... - I got this from a rep who also told me the S3 shipped out on 6/6/12 and needed to cancel my pre-order cause it wasnt charged yet and got into a big argument over phone with them about that so they could be wrong about the data too.
[Motorola Droid X2] DigitalMD:
Saw this note on Phone Arena .com, today don't know if its true or not !

. " It’s worth reminding readers that if they really want a GS3 on Verizon and you have a grandfathered unlimited data plan that you won't be able to activate the GSIII until after the cutoff date. So if you're looking to upgrade and want to be absolutely sure you keep your unlimited data plan for another upgrade cycle you may want to choose a phone that is available now, or else plan to pay the full $600 retail price for the GS3."

I think it's pretty clear in the end that the carriers are all in collusion to get more bucks from you and they have all decided that 2gb is the monthly threshold for charging you more $$. So Verizon will get their money one way or another from you and they can change at any time if they want to, just look at your agreement.
[Motorola Droid X2] thelowend:
Exactly why I have to stay away from it...the Nexus is the best thing to go with.

Woke up to the news this morning. I'm kinda glad I didnt wait up for it. lol. Its funny though because it was the very first thing I thought of and checked for when I woke up this morning. I must have been really excited. lol
[Motorola Droid X2] theguru1974:
Which Sennheisers for you have?
[Motorola Droid X2] Triscuit:
For now just the HD558's but I'm hoping to sell them and get the HD650's or something equivalent when I get the spare cash. I've really enjoyed the way the HD558's reproduce sound. But me being the way I am, I know it could always sound better lol
[Motorola Droid X2] Oldblackcrow:
Cool... I have the portable PX 100 II. For a portable set they sound great. I auditioned the 650s last week, but I rarely use cans unless I'm hiking or in the airport.

My understanding of the way VZW has done things are that if you buy any phone as an upg @ the discount price and you are on the grandfathered plan, then you lose your Unlimited plan. Only way around it is to pay full price for it.

Slim!
[Motorola Droid X2] mrf582:
Seriously? This is the development forum.
[Motorola Droid X2] Triscuit:
How were they? I haven't found a place that has them on display.
[Motorola Droid X2] Srambo217:
This has been heavily discussed over at Android Central. The vast majority of us got a the same response from VZW customer service- "Verizon will honor whatever was on your receipt at checkout. If you selected Unlimited Data it will carry to the new device when you activate it."

In other words, the contract you selected when checking out during preorder should be binding. If Verizon tries to pull a fast one I'll simply send the phone back and ride my contract out for another few months than switch carriers.
[Motorola Droid X2] Triscuit:
OK I'm done, mrf582 is right.
[Motorola Droid X2] Hulk0069:
I talked to Verizon if you pre-order the sg3 before the cut off date your good...
[Motorola Droid X2] Citizen_Snips:
This is what they told me, as well.
[Motorola Droid X2] wareju:
lulz.

Just curious is there any change log for alpha 4 yet? I know camera for sure and probably performance enhancements but wasn't sure.
[Motorola Droid X2] maggard5:
Check out his twitter posts:

https://twitter.com/#!/dragonzkiller
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
I havent seen anything official. Just what dragonzkiller has said. Camera, Themes, and a lot more stable. That alone if alright with me though. The lockscreen apparently has more options like displaying weather.
[Motorola Droid X2] wareju:
Oh yeah that's perfectly fine by me too, can't wait.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Obviously I need to test it out myself, but it sounds like it could even be Beta stage now.
[Motorola Droid X2] Triscuit:
For an alpha its a very good rom, even though DzK had to hack and chop his way through to get it to work for us, only two reasons I'm not running it right now is because of the camera AND because I've been working with Verizon on a network issue I've been having, so my phone needs to be stock right now, which I hate....

[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:
Nice one lol :cool:
[Motorola Droid X2] Citizen_Snips:
Hahaha perfect. I still really hope DzK uses that success kid meme to replace the "Motorola" M logo. That with the CM9 boot animation would be a perfect combination.
[Motorola Droid X2] Citizen_Snips:
Well being on stock for the last almost 24 hours has been fun lol....not. Well I'm done waiting. Going back to cm7 he'll release it when he releases it.
[Motorola Droid X2] xheavymetaldadx:
Excellent lmao
[Motorola Droid X2] lordforex:
Yeah, no need to stay on stock. Just enjoy Cm7 until cm9 a4 is ready and flash over it. I'll be staying on Liberty until it's released (don't feel like sbf'ing from an eclipse 2.2.1 install).
[Motorola Droid X2] Citizen_Snips:
Nope lol. Last time I flashed over cm7 it failed during installation. Always come from a clean slate between ROM flashes. I don't even restore nandroid backups anymore as I started noticing problems when I would leave ROM A, go to B then back to A.
[Motorola Droid X2] OtechMobile:
+1

+1 I always SBF and then go to the new ROM it might stink, but you do get a clean slate and it does help if you get bugs or FCs:D so the developers don't have to troubleshoot leftovers from another ROM.
[Motorola Droid X2] blackangel104:
It didn't fail for me when I flashed from cm7

Follow me on twitter @blackangel104 #ToonamisBackBitches - Stay Gold, Bang

Still no sign of dragonzkiller huh? Hope whatever happened last night wasn't serious and he's OK.
[Motorola Droid X2] kenjesse:
He was in irc earlier, looked to be fiddling with Linaro and cm9dx2. I have no clue when he intends to release alpha 4 thou or what kind of results he's getting with Linaro. And I did post your cartoon link, he seemed to get a kick outta of it...lol
[Motorola Droid X2] wareju:
All I know about Linaro is that it will definitely not be in alpha 4 and it supposedly doubles ics performance :cool:

Edit: the definitely not in alpha 4 part was according to a tweet of his, suppose it could be subject to change.
[Motorola Droid X2] kenjesse:
Saw that tweet myself... and I have no idea if he changed his mind. IRC was"jumping" when I stopped in and dragon left before l could even say hi...lol but he was definitely doing dev voodoo stuff...lol

i'll say i'm sorry for this up front but something driving me crazy i cant seem to find what program open this file on windows its Acv_GmParam.bin.png its a language file for resident evil 4 android need to change it from korean to english sorry this is not cm9 related but i really need help
[Motorola Droid X2] lordforex:
probably better to place this question in a Q&A forum.
[Motorola Droid X2] Scur827:
I gotta ask, why did you post this here?
[Motorola Droid X2] theredvendetta:
Well a .png file is a form of bitmapped image. You can use anything like Paint or Photo Viewer to open it.

Not sure what you mean by changing it to English, though. Image files can't contain editable text in the sense I believe you might be thinking.

EDIT: Just remembered what thread this is. This type of question doesn't belong here. I see that you acknowledged this, so I have no idea why you felt compelled to post it anyway.

[Motorola Droid X2] Triscuit:
I'm starting to think that something bad happened to DzK or his dev equipment. Or he said screw it and is gonna work on it some more over the weekend. That's just my thought, no evidence to back it up haha
[Motorola Droid X2] BluPhant:
Spoke with dkz yesterday. He's fine and was actively trying to resolve an issue. Go grab a beer and give your f5 key a rest. Smart money it'll be a bit.

[Motorola Droid X2] lordforex:

[Motorola Droid X2] Citizen_Snips:
I can't believe you guys kept waiting after that last tweet lol. Pretty much spoke to me it wasn't going to happen. :p Well it's okay. I'd rather patiently wait for a fully working ICS then have a shotty, broken one today. Let Dzk do his thang. I'm sure knowing everyone is sitting at their computers refreshing the page and waiting is adding extra pressure and stress on him.
[Motorola Droid X2] Srambo217:
Reverted back to cm7 for now. Going camping this weekend and I need to run something battery sensitive! :)
[Motorola Droid X2] ddyourself:
how can you still return the phone to moto? within 2 year?

Asked this is the eclipse thread and didn't get a response, figured I'd try here. Any way I can get the black and blue Swype theme from eclipse on cm9?
[Motorola Droid X2] 6Flip9:
@Wareju

Trying pulling it from the zip, place it in your system/app, fix perms, restart and then go to settings/ keyboard and see if its an option
[Motorola Droid X2] antp121:
Just go into the rom.zip and take the swype apk out of the system/app folder.
[Motorola Droid X2] S3AL3DF4T3:
You should be able to pull Swype.apk from system/app and libSwypeCore.so from system/lib. Then push Swype.apk to CM9 system/app set permissions to rw-r-r. Then push libSwypeCore. so to CM9 system/lib and set permissions rw-r-r and reboot phone. I've done this on CM7 haven't. tried on CM9 yet hope this helps.
[Motorola Droid X2] wareju:
By fix permissions do you all mean in recovery advanced menu? Assumed it was something simple like that but I haven't really ever dove into a ROM zip file.
[Motorola Droid X2] Maximinus I:
Use a root file exploree.g. I use Es file explorer. Go to system/app choose the Swype apk long press out go to properties permissions.change them to rw/r/ r.

no luck on getting the swype theme from eclipse, ended up just not showing up as an input option at all and wouldn't let me reinstall a fresh version. i copied the swype.apk from system/apps and two lib files from the eclipse zip and put them in their proper places in system, then fixed permissions as was mentioned (rw/r/r i think.) had to reflash cm9 to get standard swype back. if anyone knows another way let me know, i love that keyboard.

eclipse thread was a no go, guess i'll try tweeting or pm maybe. not too worried about it before alpha4 anyway.
[Motorola Droid X2] xheavymetaldadx:
That version of Skype predates the update that is supported by ics if I'm not mistaken.
[Motorola Droid X2] wareju:
i was worried that it was something ics related. the more reason for me to die for an ics version of eclipse :rolleyes:
[Motorola Droid X2] 6Flip9:
I don't think I can take it much more, without my ics.

LIFE IS NOT WORTH LIVING ;-/
[Motorola Droid X2] ninjasailas:
You have to remove the stock keyboard before being able to select the one you pushed in. At least that's what I had to do on cm7
[Motorola Droid X2] wareju:
i'll try this after work tomorrow

Hah. I read that as cool as in "awesome" at first and I thought "wait no no with the camera it'll be 100% more awesome what are you saying."
[Motorola Droid X2] samari71:
see dzk is back hopefully maybe we'll see cm9 alpha 4 this week that would be great

I'm hoping so too, but its worth the wait. I mean battery and camera working!?!? Hell yea! I'm golden once alpha 4 comes out, so its worth the agonizing, horrible, hit refresh til my thumbs bleed wait lol

[Motorola Droid X2] ddyourself:
how long does a full charge last?
[Motorola Droid X2] LaserChicken:
Clone, it kind of depends on how you run the phone. I had mine underclocked, wifi off, screen dim, etc--and I made it through a 8 hour day away from the wall charger.
[Motorola Droid X2] Stuckinabox:
What about data? I toggle it off when I'm not using it on CM7 and it saves loads of battery. Literally about half or or more.

I don't think alpha 3 boots slow?

I get about 7 hours with the screen all the way down, I check it fairly often during the day on 3g though. It seems to last longer if you can keep it connected to Wi-Fi.

Wow that's it? I'm on eclipse,with the extended battery,I get between 6-8, heavy use,9-16hrs moderate use,10-22 hrs low usage.but again I have an extended battery
[Motorola Droid X2] Oldblackcrow:
I'm constantly on my phone all day due to my job (boredom as well as actual work). I always carry an extra battery because by 1:00PM I'm down to 30%. However, yesterday I forgot my extra bat and with no changes in use, it only went to 50% by 2:30. I can't explain it... just luck I guess. I was on WiFi, but I usually am if the site has it... at most (unless the 3g signal rally sucks), keeping it on WiFi only helps a little.

Yeah, I have great battery life on stock as well.
[Motorola Droid X2] A2Trip:
So did I when I was on my X2. Hell, sometimes Id get a day and a half, TWO days with minimum use. Kinda miss Verizon and my X2. AT&T's 4G is NOT at all what I expected. And go figure, my Atrix 2 has as much development as the X2. Only difference is that the A2 is getting ICS. I think that's what A2 developers are waiting on. I did though flash my X2 back to CM9 until I sell it though...wonder if alpha 4 will hit before I sell it...that'd be cool to test it out before I for sure get rid of it.

[Motorola Droid X2] thelowend:
Read that but I'm not sure if that is a yes or nom
[Motorola Droid X2] litetaker:
That most probably wouldn't work. The reason being, the underlying contacts app is a different version (GB vs ICS) and since TiBu only backs up data for system apps, it won't restore the data as it can't find the version of contacts app corresponding to the backup. If for some reason, it backs up the apk+data, that is even more hazardous as you will be attempting to restore a GB version of the app on ICS... Nevertheless, as long as you linked your Google account on your phone, your contacts should sync right from Google itself. I always do that! Never had to manually backup contacts ever... Google did that for me!!! :D

Now, about the texts, I dunno. It may or may not work. But there are umpteen 3rd party apps specifically meant to backup texts. So, try one of those...

I too had to sit for awhile until it finished. Its odd in that it says "installing update" and the done when it is done.
