I've read that certain parts aren't interchangeable between GSM, Verizon and Sprint versions of the Galaxy Nexus.

So to be clear, I can't buy a white bezel and battery cover online and put the mobo and display in it?

I also recall reading that each phone version has a different SIM card situation, so I'm thinking if they don't specify what version the bezel is for, if the SIM slot is in the same spot as mine, I'm good?

Thanks all!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] altimax98:
Having a Toro and going to a Maguro has taught me much. The phone is physically a little thinner, the internals/back are completely different. The Sim loads from the top whereas the Sim on the toro loads through the battery conpartment. The battery also is physically different.

I wouldnt expect any single part to be exchangeable

I dont have my hox any more, but, move the app to phone (settings->installed apps) and it should appear in /data/app

[HTC One X] Jo_90:
You can back up it

You can use Android assistant to back up it and have it on your memory card as it appears doesn't support moving to sd
[HTC One X] nocomp:
this is what i would liek to understand:

when you buy an app, before it get installed, it has to be downloaded,and then stored. I though it was done in /data/app but it seems that not all app are stored there by default obviously.

where else can it be?

i just got my atrix 2 to replace my atrix 1 from bay...

the phone come with a ATT stock 2.3.5 rom but it wont update OTA...

my question...

can i rsd send the stock 2.3.5 flash to the phone and then try to update OTA?

i dont know what people before me has done to the phone so how safe i should go which rom?

thanx
[Motorola Atrix 2] devilhunter47:
Yes you can use rsd lite to return to 100% stock and then try the ota..i recommend upgrading to leak 1 since you cant go back to gb if you update to ics ota
[Motorola Atrix 2] htchd2fix:
leak1 trough rsd flashing? after 2.3.5 stock?

ics leak as good support for webtop? or gb 2.3.6 better? thanx again
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Just use the 2.3.6 FXZ through RSD lite. If you want good webtop then stay at 2.3.6, because webtop 3.0 is more like tablet mode and not ubuntu anymore.

Here is a link to get the 2.3.6 fxz:

http://sbf.droid-developers.org/edison/InlineFlashing_edison_5.5.175.25_cfc_p3_APBP.xml.zip

All of the FXZ files are here:

http://sbf.droid-developers.org/edison/list.php

If you really want to try ICS, then I would go for leak one from 2.3.6 just do not root or install anything while in 2.3.6.

Here are the instructions for that. Again though ICS does not have ubuntu for webtop, it is just android in tablet mode:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1779968

If you like the ubuntu webtop and want to stay on 2.3.6, my hack works really well for unlocking the full potential of ubuntu webtop, that is here:

can i rsd 2.3.6 file that you posted now?
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
What do you mean you replaced the boot image? please give me a link to the thread you go that from... that is quite disturbing.

What I need you to do is to flash the 2.3.6 fxz file with RSD lite, and watch each step and make sure you get a PASS at the end, if not you might be failing in one of the steps, I think there are like 18 steps or something in the AT&T FXZ. I really need to know which step it is failing on, it should be something like step 3/18 or something like that... I really need to know that or if it goes all the way to the end and say PASS.

If you can grab a screen shot of the error or PASS that might also help as well.
[Motorola Atrix 2] htchd2fix:
the replace of the boot img i did trough fastboot cmd and was able to recover and boot fine

then i replaced the recovery that was also corrupted same in fastboot

now the only thing i miss is the webtop

this is the tread

[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Yeah not the best idea. That ONLY should apply to NON-ATT phones, all you just did was put the 2.3.5 boot image on the 2.3.6 bad flash, you are still not whole. You may not be able to get this all right, after doing that, not easily at least... those instructions were out WAY before we had an official 2.3.6 FXZ, which is what you should be using.

I still need to know where RSD is failing, that is crucial to know what is happening.

From here on, if you want my help, DO NOT do anything unless I ask you to please!!! I am one the devs on this phone and our resident expert here. I am very meticulous, but I will get you back but you need to take this one step at a time, and do only what I ask and report back.

Yeah unfortunately you are screwed, sorry to say. The white LED means it is dead, no bringing it back. That is why I was trying to figure where things were going wrong, rather than having you risk further issues.

You might be able to find an atrix2 with a broken screen cheap on ebay and just put the good motherboard from that in your phone, and get yourself back up and running, I have seen them for 50-100 USD on ebay. There are instructions on how to replace the screen in the general section.

Well, they will most likely send it back to you with a referb, and it WILL have the stock ICS on it, and you will NOT be able to get back on GB and use the ubuntu webtop.

Hello, I am sorry if I am hijacking this thread but that is not my intention. I have a similar situation here that I need help with. I just bought a used Atrix 2 yesterday and I am unable to use that.

It is running the following:

Android Version: 2.3.5

System Version: 55.11.11.MB865.ATT.en.US

Build Number: 5.5.1-175_EDFFW1-11

It was in factory reset after mode so i followed the instruction to register with google and my gmail added. But when go to contacts, it keep rotating to open AT&T address book and never comes out of it. So I cannot use my google contacts and has to dial the numbers every time (sucks). Secondly, I called AT&T about the address book problem and was told that is not their problem and asked me to update the Android. I tried updating endlessly but the phone always says 'The software is upto date and no update is necessary!" really?

I called at&t again w/o much success. Then I called Motorola and was told that the phone is running a strange unofficial (really, again?) android version that they cannot help either.

I did confirm the phone is not rooted.

Now, I have a beautiful looking phone that i cannot use. I am not familiar with rooting and all sorta things and can you please help me so i can use this phone?

Thanks a ton.
[Motorola Atrix 2] htchd2fix:
root the phone and remove all the att blotware...

Hi,I brought HTC one x at&t from usa.it was a locked device and it was under the contract.I brought it and got it unlocked and then brought to india for my use.now the device is running on android 4.0.3.but AT&T have released a new version of android 4.0.4.I tried to update it over my WiFi connection but it showed "service not available please try it when u r under the service".then I contacted the HTC customer care and they told to download the software and try it manually through HTC sync manager but it showed "battery low plz charge and try" eventhough I had 100%battery.then I tried another way by skipping the sync manager then it showed "signature failed".

After this again I contacted HTC customer care and they said to contact the original user or take it to the HTC service centre,which is 100+ from my place.

Plz help me resolve this problem.thanks in advance...

[HTC Desire X] infernal77:
Hey all, since a lot of folks are wondering about custom roms for the DX, I decided to start this thread to document my exploits in trying to compile CM9.

Basically, I'm new to Android (had an iPhone 3GS for about 2 years) so I'm going to need a lot of help and this is really going to start of very basic. But since I had my Desire X and been on this forum, I have met more and more cool people that are actively trying to help development for our phone, like stereo8,maartenxda and yasir, so I'm sure we'll be alright. None of this would be even possible if not for LLior that made the CWM recovery for us. :good:

OK, so to build CM9 you need a build environment set up specifically for the job, there's many guides out there on how to do this, but I found this one (props to mbroeders, OP of the tut) pretty good :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1566224

Basically, building CM9 is done in linux, Ubuntu being the most popular version, and I'll be using the latest Ubuntu 12. If you don't use Ubuntu as main OS, you can still try this, but you'll need to set up a good (!) portion of your harddrive to install it in a virtual environment, like VMWare Player (free). Mind you, we'll be downloading the CM9 source, which ended up being around 10 gig on my pc, and we'll be needing at least another 16 gig to actually build CM9. To be on the safe, I set aside 50 gig on my drive for the virtual Ubuntu-pc in VMWare.

The guide I'm using will show you how to set up a general build environment, but since we are talking about the Desire X, which is brand new and without official CM support (yet?), we are going to have to adapt it to make CM9 for our phone. Several people have already worked on this, mainly Lloir, so I got his permission to use the stuff he's already done. A big thanks btw, from one and all :)

And this is basically the first time I'm going to need help. To adapt the build system specifically for the DX, we'll need to make a local_manifest file that points it to device and vendor trees LLoir has made. The local_manifest is supposed to go in the .repo folder of your CM9 source.

How do I do this ?
[HTC Desire X] neXus PRIME:
Goto cm9 wiki and install all prerequisites. Then do a repo init of the main build tree(cm9) and then add the device trees to manifest.xml found in .repo. after that , you sync via repo sync and then you setup environment through envsetup.sh and then you build for protou by brunch protou. Debug the errors you encounter. That's about it. If it doesn't boot after successful build, then the device/hardware/vendor/kernel trees need some sorting out .

Regards.
[HTC Desire X] infernal77:
help for local_manifest - Llior ?

Morning, googled some more, and found a template for a local_manifest.xml file I'm adapting for the DX.`I prefer to go as much by the book as possible for now, apparently putting these in manifest.xml can mess up your source.

So far, I have :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<manifest>

<project name="Lloir/protou" path="device/htc/protou" remote="github" revision="ics"/>

<project name="LLior/XXXXXXXXXXXXX" path="device/htc/msmXXXX-common" remote="github" revision="ics"/>

<project name="Lloir/android_vendor_htc_protou" path="vendor/htc/protou" remote="github" revision="ics"/>

<project name="Llior/XXXXXXXXXXXXX" path="kernel/htc/msmXXXX" remote="github" revision="XXXXXXXXXXXX"/>

</manifest>

The XXXX need editing, not sure which repositories though
[HTC Desire X] neXus PRIME:

Here you go, you can see it for your reference...

[HTC Desire X] infernal77:
CM9 - first build - result

OK, using your manifest, I managed to set up the system to build with Lloir's device and vendor trees.

I had to edit the msm7x30.mk file in /device/htc/msm7x30-common though so the first section of it would point to /frameworks/

base

rather than /frameworks/native as in the original for it to build.

It then compiled to the end, I ended up with a boot.img, recovery.img, system.img and userdata.img, which I turned into a .zip file to flash in CWM.

It installs, but gets stuck on the HTC-logo screen, but I can't take a logcat -same as with stereo's paranoidandroid : logcat.txt says logcat cant be found in /sbin/sh- even when I create a sbin/sh folder with logcat.

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong ? I would really like to see what's going on during boot.
[HTC Desire X] neXus PRIME:
Stock Rom showed our device shares common config from msm7k and not msm7x30. I'll try another build with some modified things to see if it boots . One thing you can do is to compare lloir device tree with other trees of similar devices to verify whether we are missing something critical. Also did you use pre.built kernel ?

AND framework native is used in jelly bean , not ics. You're syncing jelly bean cm source and device tree is currently for ics. Recheck please.
[HTC Desire X] infernal77:
Hm, thanks for the input, Yasir. I was wondering about it, I just synced using the default.xml in the last post. I guess that means I was using the prebuilt kernel as well. Don't worry about the source code I synced, it's definitely cm-ics. As far as I can see, there aren't files relating to msm7k in Lloir's github. I'll see if I can find out about a device that uses the msm7k.

cheers :good:

EDIT : Yasir and me are working together on trying to get a CM9 to the Desire X, anyone that wants to help (preferably with experience) is welcome :) Use this thread to keep things organised. Thanks
[HTC Desire X] infernal77:
update on CM9 - wip - all help welcome !

OK, update on what's happening :

Because our phone has a new Qualcomm processor there's no CyanogenMods out yet for any device that uses it, let alone by HTC, that we can compare it to. This could help us out a lot to get the device specific information and sources the build system needs to make us a CM9. This info and these files are contained in and referred to by the so-called device and vendor trees. Lloir has done the most work for the Desire X up to now in making these device and vendor trees, but since first test builds aren't booting, Yasir and me are going over them again.

By the way, if anyone knows more about why logcat doesn't work, that would be extremely helpful. All response I get is that logcat isn't in /sbin/sh. I tried adding it to a separate /sbin/sh folder in my test build, but no dice :(

Good news is I found out the MSM8225 chipset was designed to be fully backward compatible, both hardware and software, with the MSM7225A and MSM7227A phones, of which Qualcomm sold about a 100 million. So, I've begun studying the device and vendor trees for the HTC Explorer (Pico), which is a MSM7225A model. Important because it has the compatible 7225A chipset and uses the ARMv7 cpu instruction set - which is the same as the Desire X.

We'll keep you guys posted, also when we need testers. :good:
[HTC Desire X] neXus PRIME:
Ours is cortex a5, that's why it is compatible with msm7227. But the not booting issue is probably due to some thing missing or wrong in device.mk. the board config is ok. And kernel source is also available on htcdev and git simonsimons23. The device tree and vendor mk files need correction. At least that's my thinking.
[HTC Desire X] infernal77:
OK, I'll leave the boardconfig for now (am checking the files alphabetically) and move on to device.mk If I see anything I don't get or differs from the pico source (has official CM9), I'll let you know here or through pm. :) I was thinking the same about the device and vendor trees, it's our starting point and we're stuck here already lol. I know about the githubs, I'll check the changes (if any) simonsimons made.

I was thinking though : don't we need the 1.18 kernel to do this ? I already flashed the updated kernel with the 1.18 ruu. I checked on htcdev and it only lists the 1.14 kernel source. Or is there a way to get it from a running phone ?

I don't know why logcat is missing, but to obtain kernel messages you could run the "dmesg" command instead.

Any progress OP??? I did a recent build with some mods on weekend but it failed to boot. I'm highly suspicious that its a kernel issue although i cant say for sure. If any one manages to boot it, even if its till the boot animation, DO POST AND SHARE, coz then its easier going forward.
