Rooting is nothing risky, it can never brick your device, it either succeeds or not.

Dont be afraid.
[Motorola Atrix 2] techsavvy.jaz:
1.

then there wont be any problem..

2. Its 2.3.6

3. Cant comment on that as i am still un root and stock waiting for the ICS OTA :p
[Motorola Atrix 2] devilhunter47:
Yes its applicable to all 2.3.6 variants..i have rooted and now running a custom rom..2.3.6 SEARET 55.28.37 is the one that comes with the phone
[Motorola Atrix 2] kodalidatta:
Hello, i am from india too.. my experiance with atrix 2 is very good. you will have 2.3.6 but i think there is a bug with Wifi. some times wifi turns itself off. other than this i did not find any bugs with 2.3.6 on atrix2. 2.3.5 used to be great. any how we are going to have ICS 4.0 next month. it is in testing stage. Coming to rooting. you can root your phone if you follow the steps carefully. you will not brick your phone if you follow those steps.
[Motorola Atrix 2] deborshi:
Hi,

I have an Atrix2( bought it as soon as it appeared in India!!!) .To answer all your doubts

1) Rooting WILLNOT brick your phone. Follow the rooting procedure , you will be fine.

2) I think 2.3.6 SEARET version is being sold in India. Mine was that out of the box. There was an update, I applied that.

3) I didnt face the wifi issue with the 2.3.6 update. The phone was a bit laggy though.

Right now am on MEARET based ICS , planning to downgrade to 2.3.6 SEARET .
[Motorola Atrix 2] Prasanna.RS:
Hi all, I took Atrix2. It comes with Android 2.3.6 out of the box. I successfully rooted my Atrix2 and is working fine.. No lag, no bugs. Blazing fast processing and fluidic graphics.. Now I have a question.. I have installed Go Launcher and replaced Motoblur.. I want to know how to put Fav. contact widget on Go launcher screen.. I went through widget list.. It is not available..
[Motorola Atrix 2] techsavvy.jaz:
Few of the moto widgets are not compatible with custom launchers, you can try go contacts or there are few favourite contact widgets available on play store but none as good as the stock moto quick contacts widget.

Speak only when it improves on your silence.
[Motorola Atrix 2] wafeeq:
Congratulations

MOTOBLUR widgets only work in Blur home. You need to enable it.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Prasanna.RS:
Fav. Contact Widget

If I remove Fav. contacts Widget from MotoBlur, how can I get it back..?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] werakoko:
Hi,

The problem is, that I cant install apps that are over 6mb. Sometimes updates just remove apps from my phone, just saying "not enough space". The best part is, that I have ~130MB on /system, and 1,5GB on /sdcard! It happens both on stock-based roms and FXP 133 (CM9). I just have no clue what to do.

Wiped dalvik cache, cache, formatted data and system, it just happens no matter what. After moving all apps to SD problem persists. What am I missing?

Xperia arc, FXP 133 anzu, with included kernel

Forgot to add: It's a fresh installation. Sometimes larger applications install properly. I had problems with Titanium Backup and Sygic.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrModMan:
Not sure but if you're moving apps etc. to your SD card you might need to clear up space or buy another SD card (i recommend 12 -16gb SD card)

If its stored in internal memory you might need to do the same and clear up space
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sandro8771:
Have you tried using another sd card just to make sure whether the problem is with your existing sd card or device?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] werakoko:
It has nothing to do with sd-card, can u both read? Should I provide logcat?

EDIT: Sorry, I meant nothing offensive, I'm just too direct sometimes.

What else is there left to wipe, when /system, /data, /cache and dalvik cache has been purged? Apps simply download, install and then Google play gives notification about lack of disk space. It happens even, when I install apk's using ES File Explorer. Why can I install games larger than 15MB (no sd data, so it lands entirely in phone memory), and can't install 6MB Sygic? APK file is NOT corrupted, it works on my other phone. Market version is no good as well...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaliyaakakallu1:
Same problem with me too, i tried to install Google Now (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1818189) and it refuses to copy the files in the /system with the error "Not enough memory".

It was fine till i used Pureness ROM, but now i am on Jelly Sandwich.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spidermoon:
When you install an app, there is two files, the apk and the corresponding odex file (same name than the apk, suffix is '.odex'). Sometime, when you play with restore, moving apps in system, odex them or changing rom without cleanup, the ".odex" file remains. Search for corresponding odex file in /system/app or /data/app and delete it.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zolaisugly:
When you save apps to internal they go into data/app not system /apps

check what space you have if needed save some gspps from internal to system by using app called links2sd free from play store.

Try cleaning the dalvik cache this is not the same as deleting the mentioned app can do this.

titanium backup can help with moving to system and cleaning to dalvik.

Also look in vendor/app there may be some issues there.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] werakoko:
vendor/app holds one small file, it has sth to do with ringtones, so it's not that.

Before switching roms I always make a proper cleanup.

There is sth interesting about system app manager though, it shows that "19..." of internal storage is used and "183 MB" is free. Why are there three dots instead of MB, and why is it just 19? It looks like the dots replaced sth that doesn't fit inside of the text field (190MB?).

Why does it happen after cleaning everything, on fresh, "Out-of-the-Box" rom? I could understand it on Ice Bean (it started on that rom), it was 200mb+ stock-based rom, but FXP is just ~130mb! There should be plenty of space for app data.

EDIT: Wow, thats even more odd, I've just managed to install all the apps I couldn't! Like the problem was never there. It's weird and I still want to know what the hell was that, and make sure it won't happen again, as I have no time for X Files kind of things.

Thanks for feedback, so far.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Pablo_:
Hi there,

I read almost every thread about no updates available and still don't found answer...

My tab was rooted and CWM installed.

because this is B60, I used NVflash to flash totally stock 8.6.5.13 from here:

http://www.tabletroms.com/forums/tr...stock-3-2-recovery-roms-unbricking-tools.html

after that, I tried to use "system firmware update" but "There is no update available" message appears,

so I decided to update it manually, put 8.6.5.21 zip on sdcard and now have 8.6.5.21 android,

but still "There is no update available"...

I also tried to root this 8.6.5.21 put CWM again, used SuperWipe Full script, and again installed 8.6.5.13 with NVFlash, still same situation.

I also tried tricks with clear cache/data of CMClient and DMClient,

I can push ICS via NVflash but last version i found is .24, i tried this also, but can't get update to .27 and noticed battery draining during night,

my plan is come back to totally stock where OTA will work and give this tab to my wife.

Anybody can help me ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sidneyk:
Use BRK's tool and download the latest firmware from Asus. This tool works great and will even get you rooted after nvflashing 9.2.1.27 for you.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Pablo_:
BRK tools is great "Everything in one place" tool.

I can use it to install ICS .27 from Asus web site, and this is great,

but I don't know if in the future OTA will come...

I tried to install 8.6.5.21 using this tool, and after that still had message "There is no update avaiable"

as I wrote, want to be 100% sure, future OTA will come.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sidneyk:
My understanding is that FOTAs will be allowed if you nvflash a stock firmware with this tool, so long as it's not rooted and you keep the stock recovery. All has to be stock and the proper SKU, i.e. US, WW, CN, etc. and it should work the same as if it came from the factory that way.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee one:
I have a rooted, deodexed stock(ish) rom and I still get updates, but of course they won't flash. I don't think ASUS is constantly pushing old updates since the only ones who haven't upgraded yet are either rooted or haven't used their tablet. The updates are incremental, so you need the current stock rom to update with the lastest OTA. The full roms can be downloaded from the ASUS site.

If you want to get updates straight from ASUS, then flash the latest rom and keep it stock. Otherwise, you'll just get useless updates that won't flash. You need a stock system and a stock recovery to flash the ASUS OTAs. No voodoo, no overclocking kernel, no CIFS/SAMBA, no XBMC, no nothing, no fun.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Pablo_:
Exactly! Rooted rom or changed recovery don't stop to receive FOTA notifications, but will give an error if you try to install.

Something is strange here, and probably only Asus knows how it works.

I had rooted room, and my tab downloaded first update to ICS version, but of course I didn't install it. Now I tried to come bace to fully stock, tried 8.6.5.13, 8.6.5.21, and 9.2.1.24 and never received FOTA notification anymore.

Maybe my serial number is banned on Asus side ??? Who knows...

I spend a lot of time reading and some people had this problem, some not, nobody don't know the reason.

I tried to come back to fully stock in order to give this tab to my wife, but if tab don't receive FOTA anymore, and I'll have to update it by hand every time using SD card it makes no sense to install stock firmware. Now I'm looking for most stable ROM and will install it. For now the winner is newest ARHD, but I still reading about diffrent roms.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee one:
To be clear, I think that ASUS only pushes out updates for the latest ROM. If you are on .24 or older, you probably won't get an update since .27 is the latest. This is just my theory. The updates are incremental, which means that you have to apply the .27 update on top of the .24 rom. It will fail if you try to flash it over an older rom, even if it is bone stock.

In your situation, I would recommend a custom ROM.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] udupa82:
Gee one is right... once you root stock update won't install and yes its a incremental update and you can't install .27 over .21 it has to be in order (.21->.24->.27)... also you need a unrooted ROM to download and apply updates from Asus otherwise update will fail and u risk soft bricking ur tablet... I did that once coz I was having problems with 1st ICS versions....

If don't like/can't get to work then root it and install either android revolution HD or revolver ICS.. both are stock based ICS ROMs...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Pablo_:
Hmm...

Updates are incremental, this is true.

but... When i bought my tf, and come back to home, FOTAs coming few times and after one hour about I had nevest version.

Now, after NVFLASHing .24 I don't receive FOTA update since two days...

Somewhere I red, NVFLASH don't clean everything, maybe this is reason.

I would like to try, but i have no idea how to TOTALLY clean my tab,

I looked into SuperWupeFull script and it clean mmcblk0p1, p2 and p7.

Any idea about TOTAL clean ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Pablo_:
really dangerous way should be to execute dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0

but i don't know if it is good idea :)))

this could break apx mode.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] udupa82:
Why don't u try downloading older version of Asus and do incremental update.. say first version of ICS for transformer...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Pablo_:
I tried versions, ICS .21, .24 and HC .13, .21.

Every time, same message:

"No updates available for your device"
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee one:
Asus might not be pushing any updates. I bet they stop as soon as they post the latest rom on their website.

If you use nvflash to reflash your TF, it will format every partition, but you have to use the --create flag. If you just download the system or recovery, it won't touch the other partitions.

Kinda embarrassing, but I had the tablet on the water take and when I flushed it just slipped right into the bowl... :( :( :(

Power button isn't really working.. took the back off of it and have it laying glass up hoping the water drains out of it. Not like there is alot of water in it or anything just want to be sure. Hopefully their isn't significant damage, but if there is I hope I can RMA it..

[Nexus 7 General] blahblahyoutoo:
RMA is for warranty repair only.

In your case, it's accidental damage which would/should not be covered by warranty.
[Nexus 7 General] ED2O9:
Disconnect the battery immediately and let it sit in a dry area for at least a day. I'd even recommend hitting it with a hair dryer for 5-10 minutes. My daughter left her phone out in the rain, and when we found it, water literally poured out of the case. I took the battery out, disassembled it as much as I could and let to dry for a day. It survived and it working fine now. Keep in mind that most manufacturers place "moisture indicators" inside their devices. It's just a small paper sticker with tiny drops of red dye on it. As soon as water hits it, the dye runs and the sticker turns pink... and your warranty is void. :(
[Nexus 7 General] plambda:
Sorry dude. Be more careful next time. Not sure what else to say.
[Nexus 7 General] moinster:
Yeah it's powered off. Looking online right now how to disconnect the battery, also looking for the water detection sticker.

[Nexus 7 General] moinster:
Thank you. I've disconnected the battery and it is sitting in the server room, Dry and Moisture free, yes? I've try some of the tips when I find the alcohol.
[Nexus 7 General] eager27:
putting it in a sealed bag full of silicon gel sachets will also help.
[Nexus 7 General] fatfingered:
That's a crappy situation.

If you're in the US and paid the full amount on your credit card (not debit card), see if the card offers any buyer's protection. American Express and the higher tier Visa cards offer a 90-day theft and breakage protection.
[Nexus 7 General] Po1soNNN:
Is the battery dry? If it's wet you'll need a new one and remember this isn't guaranteed to work.
[Nexus 7 General] trevd:
A server room should dry it out good.

This is going to sound pretty gross, was the toilet flushed? I recently repaired my HTC Hero that I had loaned to a friend, who then proceeded to drop it down an unflushed toilet :eek:

I dried it out, only to find it would not power up, not until I remove the pubic hair that was shorting it out :)

Just Something to look out for.
[Nexus 7 General] ED2O9:
Just because the battery got wet doesn't mean that it's trashed. Tap water isn't that great of a conductor, so as long as the battery didn't discharge at too high of a rate from a short, it might be okay. If the battery felt very hot when you removed back cover, it's not a good sign.

As for the alcohol, I'd use it to clean the board but I'd hold off on submerging the whole unit. The openings on the Nexis's case are pretty thin, so I doubt much water got inside. I'd just let it dry and see if it works before doing anything drastic.
[Nexus 7 General] Hawk600:
If it was on when you dropped (probably was) it might have shortened something in the circuit board, and that is why is not turning on, however there is always hope and I would follow the previous advices to disconnect the battery, hair dryer and rice of bag overnight before trying turn on again.

Good luck!!
[Nexus 7 General] moinster:
Hahaha, It was at the end of its flush when it slipped it. When it hit the bowl the case opened a little bit but I grabbed it as fast as I could.

The battery was quite cool actually.

It was clean tap water, btw.
[Nexus 7 General] UnusualSuspect:
Another sad story: I dropped mine 4 feet to a concrete floor about 24 hours after it was delivered, breaking the screen. The display still works, but the digitizer won't respond to touches any more. I found a link to a place that claims to have the screen-digitizer assembly for $130, but haven't pulled the trigger.

No luck with the VISA purchase protection...
[Nexus 7 General] moinster:
Yeah, I'm pretty damn clumsy :/ and I bought it with a debit card.

If the digitize is $130 I would just spend the extra $70 and sell the unusable one as parts.
[Nexus 7 General] Nippero:
This had me giggling in my little cubicle.
[Nexus 7 General] moinster:
Yeah I was literally LOL'ing in my office when I read that.

Thank god the water was clean, it was actually cleaned yesterday and wasn't used until I used it. If that matters at all. haha
[Nexus 7 General] trevd:
Glad I could brighten up your day. :)

The button membrane needed replacing and that was It, After a good dunking In some cleaner water it was good as new. It had just had the digitizer replaced before it's unfortunate journey as the original one had been all touched out.

With drying out any water damaged device, I'd tend to leave it at least 24 hours no matter what I've done to remove the moisture, I'd also fully strip it down so you can give the underside of the board a chance to dry. This sort of repair operation can't be rushed from my experience.
[Nexus 7 General] kennyfool:
I come from a DROID X that has survived being submerged in water TWICE. What I did was take the battery out and put the X in the oven at a low temperature to allow the water to dry it. After doing so both times, my poor DROID X didn't wanna work but it slowly healed its self. Not saying that's something you might wanna try but it is a suggestion. Just take the back cover off and wrap the device in a towel.
[Nexus 7 General] moinster:
Yeah, I don't think I'm going to put it in the oven. I've heard pros and cons, and cons aren't worth it.
[Nexus 7 General] ExploreMN:
I can't even imagine how this could happen... there must be more to the story here. LOL
[Nexus 7 General] saniyal:
The cheapest solution is buy squaretrade for 50 dollars for the 16gb or 40 for the 8 gb they cover water damage but you have had to have your purchase within 30 days or the day you have received it if it was a preorder. That's the best solution I would say instead of buying parts for it
[Nexus 7 General] Nippero:
If you go with the squaretrade method (which is dishonest, but meh) you'd have to wait a month (or mighta bee 45 days) before you can file a claim I believe.

Theres a grace period between buying the policy and when it actually goes into effect, just to prevent people from buying the policy right after the device is damaged lol.

EDIT: another dishonest method... if you bought the N7 in a store you could probably just return it and claim you have no idea why it wont work. Customer service reps at a retail shop arent going to bother to pop open the device to check it. They probably wont even try to test it lol.

Of course if you purchased this online, it most likely wont go well for you.

Either way, I dont recommend the dishonest methods because theyre well.. dishonest lol.
[Nexus 7 General] moinster:
Hah, I wish there was. I just set it up on the tank and when I flushed it must have moved and just fell right in :/
[Nexus 7 General] R3dbeaver:
submerging the whole thing in pure alcohol will most likely RUIN ur LCD screen. see his post. "might ruin LCD but cheaper than a whole new phone". yeah. right. this aint a phone. ruin the LCD on Nexus7 u might as well spend another $199 for a new one.
