[Atrix 4G General] peej8991:
Hey guys, long time reader although never really posted much. Over the next few days I'll be getting my new phone in the mail and begin setting that up. I wondered what to do with this phone that has been made great thanks to the devs here. So I'd like to donate it to one of those devs who has put in a lot of hard work for the good of this community. I remember reading a while back that some of them only have photons and just change some code around. I figured it might help everyone out by donating to one of those guys. It's the least I can do considering I've been using ICS and JB since they came out thanks to everyone here, not Motorola lol. If anyone could suggest a dev or if one of you see this yourself just send me a pm. It might be a week or two but the phone is in great shape still! Thanks guys again for all the great work. Oh last thing, I'd prefer that you be in the US if possible just so the shipping isn't outrageous. Thanks!
[Atrix 4G General] upndwn4par:
I would recommend Th3Bill. He makes a bunch of ROMs for this community and doesn't even own an Atrix.
[Atrix 4G General] peej8991:
OK, I knew when I wrote that it was either him or joker that didn't have an Atrix. Thanks, I'll send him a pm.
[Atrix 4G General] MXIIA:
I was planning on doing the same thing with my Atrix once I get a Nexus 4. I actually live in the same city as Th3Bill.
[Atrix 4G General] pre4speed:
Don't forget mmontuori. I was actually thinking of donating my second atrix to him since I'm in a skyrocket, but I believe he's outside the us? Please someone correct me if I'm wrong. Us people who want to donate should definitely get together so we make sure all the awesome developers have an atrix to work with!
[Atrix 4G General] pre4speed:
Joker doesn't have one either.
[Atrix 4G General] yuric:
Don't forget epinter. He already has an Atrix but I'm sure he could do a lot more of his "magic" with a second one, specially if this one has a different tegrapart. :rolleyes:

The only problem: epinter is from Brazil, but I'm not sure where he lives. :confused:
[Atrix 4G General] ravilov:
Let's also not forget mmontuori, he also has one already but now he's working on a new experimental ROM which he said is becoming increasingly more difficult since he needs his phone for normal everyday stuff too...

But anyway, I agree Th3Bill is probably the best candidate. Joker would be a good one too if he was still active, and to my knowledge all other devs have at least one already. Hmmm... maybe faux123 too? Dunno if he has one or is he even still interested in working for the Atrix...
[Atrix 4G General] Zeljko1234:
May vote goes to mmontuori. He kindly ask for second Atrix :)
[Atrix 4G General] epinter:
I have two Atrix, eventually I get the other for some tests, but it's dangerous, it's from my wife. :D

---------- Post added at 10:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:28 AM ----------

mvniekerk asked for an atrix sometime ago in the Atrix Kernel thread.
[Atrix 4G General] Zeljko1234:
What I do not recommend it at all :D

Yes!!! mvniekerk is kernel developer :)
[Atrix 4G General] Bert.C:
+1 for mvniekerk
[Atrix 4G General] peej8991:
Thanks for the responses guys. I knew epinter said he had a couple. And now I remember a while back joker had gotten a bunch of donations and used that to get one. I believe someone sent me a pm but I'm at work so I'll check shortly. Thanks again.
[Atrix 4G General] HMZX:
I'm giving my vote to Th3bill guys, he has like 5 ROMS for the Atrix, and he doesnt even have one! Major well done to him!
[Atrix 4G General] Zeljko1234:
I know that Th3bill is good guy but with mvniekerk we may have a new kernel. Without new kernel, no one could make stable ICS/JB with hwa.
[Atrix 4G General] drmspidi:
+1 for mvniekerk
[Atrix 4G General] upndwn4par:
Everyone, try to think about who is the most deserving and what makes the most sense. Not what serves your own interests.

Shipping a used device to South Africa for mvniekirk doesn't make much sense. Shipping would probably cost more than the device is worth. You don't pay shipping on PayPal donations, so support him that way.

Joker is AWOL and has been for months. He is certainly worthy of the donation, but might not even use it.

So it really comes down to Th3Bill or mmontuori (since he requested one and is certainly worthy).

Either way, thanks peej8991 for being so generous.
[Atrix 4G General] peej8991:
Ya I'd like to keep the shipping reasonable lol. Mmontuori has already contacted me so hopefully you guys will be enjoying more great Atrix dev soon.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lordofazeroth:
If a kernel does not have the Advanced Routing feature (which is needed for VPNC widget - Cisco VPN) is it possible to add this via module like tun.ko module?

The Adv. Routing is not needed for connecting but the connection is soon lost.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tenminutes:
I found information pointing to the CONFIG_IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER option in the Linux kernel config.

On plain Linux, this can not be a module, it just makes a few more options visible that affect routing. These cannot be modules either.

If the Android kernel is not very different, you can't get this as a module.

btw, I found that someone enabled this, but VPNC still complains. Maybe it doesn't detect correctly what it wants, and its information is not precise enough.

Hey guys,

So I just recently flashed my s3 to paranoid android and I started realizing that I'm seeing all these emojis on Twitter and instgram

My questions is how do I use it? and where can I use it(like which apps)?

I have read on some sites where you type the word and it gives you a emoji menu but I haven't seen this at all.

Hope someone can help

Thanks in advance

I recently bought a factory reconditioned unlocked nexus one with Android v2.3.4.

In the fastboot window, I don't see the unlocked notice altho when I start it it shows an

unlocked Padlock which I have to drag to the right to get to my home page.

I installed the UniversalAndroidroot-1.6.2-beta5.apk

but installing the root and superuser failed

Can anyone offer some advice

Thanks,

[General Questions and Answers] gagdude:
There are many ways to root. For example, SuperOneClick and UnlockRoot.

Just google "Nexus One 2.3.4 root" and you should get a very clear answer
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] holeshot77:
Using King Kangers ROM and his kernel. I'm not liking how the text now show as one and two messages. Son if I send a long text it splits it up in different texts and sends them separate. Anyway I can make it stop doing it?

And sometimes I get FCing when I send a text. Its random but not sure what it is.

Lastly, my contacts don't sink with Facebook. Is this a known issue with JB? I have it checked to sync. And the UI is so crappy. Ideas on how I can change or fix this?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brian78503:
So I flashed pa2.53 and the 4.2 gapps and got signal, then I tried the nexus4g modem still no signal. Then tried to odin back to stock now my phone is stuck in airplane mode. I've flashed other roms before and lost the modem but was always able to flash back or odin another modem. Is there anyway I can fix this besides flashing back to stock and going to sprint?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frostedunit:
Reflash PA, NS4G AIO, and gapps again. Only way I could fix it 2 weeks ago.

You may have to flash the AIO twice to get it to stick.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brian78503:
I've tried that and has worked in the past. This is different though now its stuck in flight/airplane mode. I'm hoping its not a hardware issue
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frostedunit:
Are you wiping before the reflash or dirty flashing?

If wiping, looks like an Odin back to stock might be the only solution.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy_nu:
check /system/lib and delete libsec-40.so

check build prop and make sure epic rill is "#"ed out and crespo ril is in.

i am assuming you want crespo 4g modem. its not likely you will have to odin.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brian78503:
I've done clean installs more than once and odin with victory pit and d700-fco9 tar which always did the trick before. None of that is working. Although I still get wifi.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pvinodnayak:
Clean installs won't help. The only way you can get out of it is by clearing the NvRam. Download the respective modem.bin file of the current stock Rom you are on, b. Flash it using old Odin1.8* with Phone EFS clear and auto reboot ticked. Update your PRL and Nam if you have a backup. That should get your phone working.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashamir:
After dealing with this same issue and the nexus patch (which I stopped using for better compatibility), just ODIN the FC09 modem.bin. It can be found among the sticky threads.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy_nu:
? im guessing you don't want my help, suite yourself.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jworkcoo:
I currently have this problem as well. I'm stuck using the nexus modem. I did odin back to stock and was able to get back on the stock modem BUT when I try to flash CM7 or CM9 it flashes it but brings up "no service". Sooooo what's the secret...???? Please help me...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Either Odin with the EFS clear then flash the Epic modem or there is some kernel jumping game someone mentioned.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jworkcoo:
Yep I did that. I odin and cleared EFS. (As long as I'm on stock, Im back on the FC09 modem). So once I verified that, I flashed CM7 and it says no service. I must be missing a step or something. Is there a step by step on how to get back to epic modem from a nexus modem? If not, maybe we should think about creating one.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Did you verify service on stock? It needs to go through hands-free activation.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jworkcoo:
Yep....did handsfree activation and I had service.....while on stock....So after I did that, I rooted again and flashed cm7....then I received no service.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Which CM7? With or without the Nexus modem kernel?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rebadc:
Need some help please

Very new to this but willing to take the dive.

If I follow this procedure I will have a Factory (Stock) N7105 phone without all of the T-Mobile bloatware???

Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] teshxx:
Does this have unsecured boot.img ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] stevessvt:
No...the is bone stock TMo t899uvalj1, it just happens to be rooted already. Complete with all the pre installed bloat like stock. It won't trip th flash counter though and your status says normal, not modified.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] zoome9:
Some have had issues resetting the flash counter because of it being modified. Anyone able to confirm that with this + flash reset counter will make it 0?

I suppose I could be the guinea pig..... will report back!

Edit: I would like to confirm that this.... WORKS! Flash counter shows 0 after it was stuck at 1 for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] stevessvt:
From mrRobinson:

nope. only system image is all that was modified with the two files (su and superuser.apk)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] konceptz:
thanks so much for this!

I've used this on the sgs3 and felt so secure knowing that i just need to uninstall su and i can walk into a T-Mobile store and return it.

one question, can i manually write any recovery without tripping the counter like on the sgs3, or is the note 2 different in the way it detects a trip?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrRobinson:
Without the device I'm not clear on that myself. It seems that once a non stock recovery is there the device either won't allow a reset ot increments the counter.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrRobinson:
Added recovery section to OP. Would be curious to see if installing a custom recovery that way after rooting with this method trips the counter or still prevents it from being reset. Anyone willing to try and report?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] deeznutz1977:
I will, since i had to replace my phone. The micro usb port wouldnt charge or connect to pc. Edit: Still says modified
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrRobinson:
I dont mind that. In download mode is the counter tripped? Modified status will happen with busy box even. And if you flash pure stock it'll go away. I'm more concerned with the download mode counter.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] deeznutz1977:
yup 1
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrRobinson:
And can you reset it with the app or will it stay at 1 now that it sees a non stock recovery?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] MOONSSPOON:
Any ideas on how to flash this using heimdall or adb on OS X?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] deeznutz1977:
zero
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrRobinson:
so when you put the recovery on there it went to 1. then you reset it to 0 with the app and it is staying at zero across reboots?

didn't someone mention they the counter wouldn't go to zero for them when they rooted the other method?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] stevessvt:
Only if they have any recovery other than stock.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] konceptz:
Though I haven't tested it, I'm not sure why Odin through virtualization wouldn't work.

Odin works differently than adb, but I'm not sure about heimdall.

I flashed this last night. It worked perfectly. THANK YOU!
[HTC Rezound] zwolf4444:
On the downside, I still haven't figured it out how to prevent my Rezound from burning like a redhead in a bikini at the beach. On the upside, Verizon was very nice to me and gave me an upgrade a year early, so I ordered the GSIII. So long sunburnt redhead, hello tall, blond, companion with large parts made of plastic!

Everyone in the forums has been super awesome, and I love all you devs who've made my Rezound experience tolerable! I get to keep my Rezound, so I'll still be around to check in and see what comes down the pipe, and if I can finally get decent battery life (so I can either give it to my sister or sell it).
[HTC Rezound] SirSigma:
Who are you again?
[HTC Rezound] zwolf4444:
Nobody important at all. Not a dev. Just a user who is appreciate of XDA and its members.

ETA: Also, that was kind of unnecessarily aggressive.
[HTC Rezound] SirSigma:
Sorry, I just wasn't sure if I recognized you or if you were just a lurker. Plenty of users have "wolf" in their usernames and it's kind of easy to lose track.

So uh... no hard feelings, I guess.

Hm, on-topic contributing discussion to this thread... how easy would you say it was to deal with Verizon on having a burning Rezound then? Verizon was voted amongst a top 5 worst customer service companies I saw a few weeks ago and thought they didn't really deserve a place there.
[HTC Rezound] zwolf4444:
No hard feelings at all.

As for your question, actually, I've had nothing but pleasant customer service interactions with them. I've been through 4 or 5 replacement Rezounds, each time they were helpful and quickly sent me a new one. The last two times I asked for a different phone, but they would only exchange it for a Razr or something equally bad. This time I managed to convince them to let me upgrade early. My general rule with Verizon customer service is that if at first you dont succeed, try try try again. Often it just takes getting to the right supervisor who will approve it. I've gotten early upgrades several times (recurring GPS issues with my Droid 2 and X led to an early upgarde to my Rezound). This is my phone history:

Droid 1 => Droid 2 (they were supposed to replace the Droid 1, didnt have any in stock, so I got a Droid 2) => Droid X (recurring GPS problems on Droid 2 so they switch my warranty replacement to an X) => Droid X2 (regular upgrade) => Droid X (X2 was so bad I sold it [for $550]) => Rezound (Droid X had same recurring GPS issues as Droid 2, they gave me early upgrade) => GS3 (all sorts of issues, from overheating to loose screens to non functioning touchscreen [depending on the return])
[HTC Rezound] Nyobie:
Good luck OP! I'm sad to see a reasonable person leave the Rez crowd. I just bought one off a fella techie chick from out of state. Came with lotsa goodies too.

My VZ cust service has been good for the most part. It only took me 2 phone calls late last year to be given Unlimited Data with Unlim Hotspot packages on both my Thunderbolt phones at the time.

See ya around!

My actual first name is a translation of wolf. Hence the username. I come by it honestly :). And Gray, you may not know who I am, because I only posted occasionally, but I know you and your work as a Dev has been awesome, so thanks!

I'm going to check back in here from time to time to see if I can get my Rezound up to sellable status. Who knows? My sunburt redhead may eventually learn how to use sunblock (I'm really stretching this metaphor aren't I?)
[HTC Rezound] famouscollin:
It took me forever but I think I just realized.. "so long and thanks for all the fish" That's a line from hitchhikers guide to the galaxy correct?

Indeed it is! It is both a line from the first book as well as the title of the fourth book.
[HTC Rezound] brando56894:
I have recently ditched the Rezound also, I was getting tired of the shoddy build quality of it and the poor battery life, so I decided to get a used Galaxy Nexus off of ebay for about $200 since I was considering getting one before I get the Rezound anyway. It took me a little while to get used to it at first because a fair amount of things are a lot different (such as OCing and the screen calibration) but all in all its a good phone. I have pretty much everything settled with it (running Friday's CM10 nightly with Franco's kernel clocked at 1.8 GHz), but I do miss the beautiful screen on the Rezound yet I don't miss how it annihilated my battery. I may keep my Rezound for a little while just to see how the JB build come along but in the end I'm probably going to sell it to help pay for the Gnex.

Keep up the great work guys, I'll probably see you around these parts.

So I use Solavei for my mobile service provider and have been frustrated the past couple of days because of the quality of service I have been getting. I decided to talk to support to see what the problem was and they came to the conclusion that it is because my phone is not unlocked. Basically I would like for whoever is willing to read our chat log and tell me if I am an idiot for not understanding what this tech support person is trying to tell me, or if tech support has failed me in this case. I trust y'all a little more than the random "tech geniuses" at my phone company.

It's definitely all the way in. Tried turning up the volume and no success. I've tried plugging in/out about 50 times to see if maybe a contact wasn't connecting internally. According to Wikipedia, the left sound comes from the tip of the plug whereas the right sound comes from the ring around the plug in between the two insulating rings. It would then sound to me that the tip of the plug isn't making contact as it should. Any thoughts?
