Well.. its cause its not what he was expecting. He did not get to review the IFA. He was just showing Samsung products to the press... under a threat.

What I am asking is that...

Is it wrong to expect Samsung to tell him straight up.."we want you to show off our products..not review the IFA"?

Instead..Samsung lied to him.
[Off-topic] 063_XOBX:
I don't see anything unreasonable about Samsung saying

.

It's not nice, but according to the article it's a pretty common practice for Handset makers to fly bloggers to events to cover their devices. Why would Samsung spend their money to help other gadgets get publicity?

I wouldn't waste a penny providing advertisements for my COMPETITORS.

How does Samsung lying help customers?

I am sorry but you guys need to realize what Samsung did was evil and they should be punished (I doubt this will happen)
[Off-topic] bscraze:
Why would Samsung even fly bloggers for free? They're a company, a business. Of course it will benefit them, they will make it benefit them in some ways even if it is a little unethical. So in this way, all mobile phone manufacturers are evil? :/

I'm not sure what you thought it would be like. Vacation with free alcohol and prostitutes? No, you were brought in to do a job, and you failed big time. I would fire you on the spot.

Let's break it down:

- Samsung offers you a job as a promoter

- You accept it

- They cover the hotel and travel costs, which is a lot of money

-

You refuse

to do the job

- You want them to cover the flight home, which is a lot of money

I'm not sure you know what a promoter is or does. A promoter promotes a company's products. NOT reviewing and promoting the competitors' products. Also, Samsung took its time to hire you and on top of that spend money on you. Then you quit. You're the jerk here, not Samsung.

This story is pretty dumb.

OP wrote a story complaining about Samsung being "evil" because some dude they gave FREE travel/stay/play with awesome stuff was hurt he didn't get to do all he wanted??

Then goes back and forth and a few links of some people claiming they were "mistreated"

I call BS on all of this crap.

Let's talk "evil"

Evil is locking down bootloaders (HTC), Evil is suing other companies because they have better selling phones than you do and you try to patent touching a screen (Apple), Evil is not giving a crap about consumers or developers or making a good competitive product and instead trying to abuse the patent system and destroy free market and monopolizing an entire industry. Because ONE dude has ONE complaint about getting a free trip any of us would kill for because he didn't get to ride all of the rides is just inane, so let's call the corporation evil.

Worst take ever.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DJ29Joesph:
Hey. Got an AT&T ATRIX 4G phone with Nottachtrix4G Rom. Long story short my Wifi doesn't seem to work anymore. I know my router is fine because I use my laptop everyday. I tried removing and re-adding the network. I also went into recovery and deleted the cache and stuff. The network connects fine, and gets an IP but I can't load anything like facebook, browser, radio, etc. Any suggestions besides full wipe? Thanks

PS: im a network / computer tech for my job, so im not a noob and know for a fact its not my network.

Issue had to do with my router and wireless access point. Rebooted both and no issues since.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dan Law 001:
I experienced issue when using Rom Manager Premium 1.0.7. In fact, when I want to go to recovery mode from the application to backup my current rom, the app automatically asks me to make a title for the backup. After that I continue, it shuts my device and restarts it and it says Failed to Boot 2 and Starting RSD Mode... and it stays there for few minutes and I assume that it is frozen then I pulled the battery out and restart the phone. It boots normally, so I try it again but every time﻿ when I give a try it does the same thing. What can I do?

I am using a rooted Atrix 4G with stock Gingerbread ROM 2.3.4 and the CWM recovery is already flashed before attempting to do the above procedures.

There's also a thing that bothers me, my Atrix is an unlocked phone (it is not those that is on contracted, "locked', with the carrier) and rooted, but I've hear some people saying that even your device is unlocked and rooted, that does not guarantee that the bootloader is also unlocked, especially with the Motorola devices. Am I corrected or is this the case?

Some other information about my device:

PLEASE HELP!!!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pre4speed:
Don't bother with rom manager. Its a crappy app that most times doesn't work. Besides which, it sounds like you are bootloader locked, which means you can't use a custom recovery until you unlock it. Best place to start is searching for the unlock thread, then you can begin to utilize fastboot to get a proper recovery and ultimately a custom rom if you choose.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dan Law 001:
I saw online that many people unlock their bootloader by using Command Prompt on their computer which I do not like since I am not good in computer language and entering codes. Any suggestion for a easy way to unlock the bootloader such as an application similar to Superoneclick for rooting [slightly complicated one is also accepted as long as no command prompt or computer language are involved]? Thanks. :confused:
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ravilov:
The unlock method by using what you call "computer codes" is as simple as it gets. It's just a few commands. I don't think anybody is going to bother making a clickable GUI frontend for such a trivial task. I think your best bet is to just follow the procedure and quit being scared of "computer codes".
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pre4speed:
What he says is true. Until my atrix (had backflip and flipside previously) I only used one click root. Once I got the atrix, one clicks didn't work, so I just CAREFULLY followed instructions to root and eventually unlock 2 atrixes and I dislike codes as much as you. Its all in how much you read read read. Its well worth it to do so. :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dan Law 001:
I also hear people say that Motorola put a code on Droid X that when you want to unlock your bootloader it will "permanently" brick your phone and you can not turn it on again. But I am not sure that if they do the same on Atrix or maybe some guys already crack it since this is not a news. Do anyone here has the same experience like this? :rolleyes:
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ravilov:
Hm. Seems to me you developed an irrational fear of all this due to an information overload, even though much of that information doesn't even apply here.

Do you think there would be a clear and detailed tutorial (which countless people followed successfully already) if this was really so risky?

Put some trust into our devs here, will ya? ;) Nothing can go wrong so long as you follow the instructions PRECISELY and take necessary precautions (if a tutorial says to do a backup, you do it).
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dan Law 001:
Sorry about that, but unlike those of you who are in the game for years, right now I just got ONE (1) Android phone (and I just got XDA last night) so I can not get any error when doing these tweaks. Maybe I should slow myself down a bit and wait until Christmas after I got my Huawei Ascend D1 Quad to hack my Atrix. You know, it's like playing poker.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ravilov:
Oh yes. You should definitely not jump the gun and do something before you're ready. Do read and learn and educate yourself before you take any actions. Just keep in mind that this is not as complicated as it may seem. :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pre4speed:
So so true. So many people automatically panic at one minor thing (anyone who has unlocked their bootloader knows what I mean ;) ) but if the tutorial is followed TO THE LETTER that minor thing is not an issue. Good luck and yes educate yourself.

Decent review. I do thank you for showing me this though, because I was thinking I'm not ready to flash, and I'm not yet. Jelly Bean noise cancellation and camera problems effect me far too much. As far as I'm concerned the best battery life on 4.0.4 is Jedi Knight, and there is no bugs other than a GPS one.

Also : These scores mean nothing. Those benchmarks as far as I'm concerned have always been inconsistent. If benchmarks are reliable at all, I'd have to go with Antutu.

I think you would need to re-visit JB then because camera issues pretty much gone and I recently got 5.5 hrs of screen on time over about 17 - 18 hrs I believe... I can average around 3-4 hrs of screen on time w/ JB. Things have gotten better

[Galaxy S III Accessories] rodriguez236:
I have been using the Seidio Surface Case for a week. I ordered it from amazon for $22.41. I ordered the Garnet Red color because I have the Garnet Red Galaxy S3. The case is easy to slide in and snap on. At first it is hard to take off, but after the first couple of times it becomes easier to come off. The case is very durable and it looks like it can protect from a fall. It has a nice lip on the front to protect the screen when laying it on the table. The case fits perfectly into the Universal Samsung Galaxy Multimedia Dock. I have had no problems with different kinds of headphones. The NFC and S-Beam still function with the case on. The color is not the color I was hoping for. I was hoping for a darker red to match the phone. They phone is well worth the price and does not add much bulk.

Ok, i'll be frank about it..., it slipped out of my hands.

But it's not the first time, and wasn't even that bad...

Anyways...

Ok, so i was out when this happened and wasn't on WiFi. I tried to Google something but it just wouldn't connect. I can see the 3G icon kick in, but only noticed one arrow (up, and no other down arrow). Is everyone following this..?

Funny this is, i did a clean install of Temasek's 135 and i was able to sync with my google account.... before my wifi was enabled.

Did i Titanium restore... and i notice data is gone...

...so, is my connection busted from the fall, or is it a SW toggle issue?

To fix the google search goto /system/app/googlequicksearchbox_usa.apk and rename it by deleting the usa at the end. Reboot and back to normal.

The only other things I can suggest are a data wipe or sbf. If you opt to do the sbf you may as well do the data wipe first and see if that fixes it. If so you can potentially restore the nandroid you just made without going through the hassle of sbf.
