[Motorola Atrix 2] barn25:
I finally relented and updated to the official ics update (i know). Phone died during update and subsequently bricked. ( no light nothing wont cut on, ETC). I called motorola and found out phone is under warranty but ill have to pay to send it in. Through out the whole conversation they kept trying to shift the blame to google or att and not take responsibility. So what do i do now? I want my phone fixed and i didnt brick it, they did from the update. But i shouldnt have to pay when its under warranty. Im very fustrated and now know i will never buy another motorola phone.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Maribou:
Well that is a tough one. Was your battery fully charged before you commited to the update? Because if you updated with 50% battery life then the blame will be on you. But, if you had a full battery and the update halted and that's what caused the brick then I would just take it to AT&T and give them a sob story. Depending on how long you have been with them they might work something out with you. It can't hurt to try at this point. :D
[Motorola Atrix 2] barn25:
Nope battery was @97 percent when it started installing. I cant send to att because i bought it off contract so the responsibility lies with Motorola.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Maribou:
Unless by some form of magic you can't talk them out of charging you to fix it then you might have to bite the bullet on this one. If you don't mind me asking, how much are they trying to charge you?
[Motorola Atrix 2] barn25:
They trying to charge me #200.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Milenko2121:
$200? I bought mine off Craig's list for $100 haha
[Motorola Atrix 2] kingkos:
Wow....$200. I wouldn't pay that much under any circumstances.

Like the other guy said, you should be able to find these phones for less than that on craigslist. Otherwise, you can use this opportunity to pick up something else. For $200, you could pick up an S2 or some other easily modded phone.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jattkhalsa:
Try the RMA online that way they dont have a chance to deny it.

Try the RMA online that way they dont have a chance to deny it. That is what I did and they sent another device. No charge overnight shipping. Did not pay a dime.

Hi,

Is there a danger installing this on my roted Xoom ? : http://brobot175.co.uk/setup/

Can I lose my data ?

Thanks in advance !!

Envoyé depuis mon Xoom avec Tapatalk
[Xoom General] Chaosgod27:
It's just a ROM that is modified to look like Windows 8, yes you can lose your data if you don't backup. Other than that, there is no danger.
[Xoom General] kinder771:
I can't backup my 25 gb of data, i only have a 32 mb micro sd...

Thanks for your answer !
[Xoom General] 063_XOBX:
Copy it to your PC and just copy it back if you run into any issues.
[Xoom General] kinder771:
I'll still need to reinstall the apps all over again...
[Xoom General] 063_XOBX:
That's why you're copying your SD data to your PC then making a backup.
[Xoom General] kinder771:
But how do you make this backup ?

Thx for your answers !
[Xoom General] d3athsd00r:
Use titanium backup (buy the pro if you don't have it) to make app backups so you can restore across flashes. And then you can connect your Xoom to your PC, and copy all your files over to make sure you don't lose any data during the flash.
[Xoom General] JCloninger:
I tried it with EOS 4 build 167 and it didn't work. Wouldn't ever get past the "dual core" screen. So I simply reverted to my backup.

Porting brobot175

2.1

Hi, i have tried porting this using many roms, eos(different builds), cm 9 and 10, project orca and i think it was killrom 4.2.

I am a complete novice when it comes to this but i managed to boot up with w8 boot screen then got stuck there, next attempt got booted but not with w8 boot screen, had extra apps and icons to mess with but for some reason i could not get the screen to look much like the brobot175 video, eventually i gave up.

Didn't mind spending time on it just started to get annoyed when not looking right.

Hope someone else has luck with it:confused :confused:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Death&co:
I used to use FoxFi when it was free. It worked great and I loved that you can set a network name and password for it. The free version no longer works on my phone. I would happily pay for their other version however there are a ton of bad reviews for it.

I recently rooted my phone and downloaded WIFi Tether for Root Users. It works great however I can't seem to figure out how to put a secure password and rename the network.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...S5nb29nbGVjb2RlLmFuZHJvaWQud2lmaS50ZXRoZXIiXQ..

What's your favorite tethering app?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Anonymously_Unknown:
Fox-Fi is the only thing I use.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Death&co:
How is it, any troubles? The most common complaint in the reviews for the paid version is that it drops all the time apparently. Am I just reading into it too much?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Anonymously_Unknown:
I've had NO problems with either the free or paid version.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] metalfangs:
Barnacle. Free and works great.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] denenatse:
I don't get it. Is tethering only free in Canada? Mine comes stock, and its not recorded our anything, no extra charges.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nToxik:
Roger's has free tethering so you don't need to use any 3rd party app. I think you have to have a minimum 500MB data plan though for the free tethering.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
Camera and Rotation Issue is maybe caused by wrong libs for different devices...

Red Tint may be Hardware issue

Let me know If you need help with anything ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] leos0000:
Make for locked bootloader please ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
It will go up live within 90 minutes regardless of the condition of the ROM. It boots and that's what matters at the moment (Y)

I will check out the camera libs now, Thanks so much (Y) will do! :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
I can see what I can do ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
This ROM is now LIVE! My first ever ROM is live! I will get some patches for those with a Neo or a Pro right now :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] pentium1061:
does it have kill app by long press back button?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ™ God ™:
Please port it to Ray :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
Not at the moment, Currently its a basic ROM with very few tweaks. I will be adding tweaks over the next few days :silly:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
I will look into it :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
V0.2 Beta will be up soon. Changes:

Updated home launcher

Updated lock-screen

Updated framework

Updated notification bar (NOW with toggles)

STILL UNDER 100mb!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Anne_Droid:
Thanks for putting up a ROM for the PRO :good:

I'll give it a try over the weekend. Cheers.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
I would like to add, it has not been tested on Pro as I only have an Arc, so if you inform me that it works, then that would be great! :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Someguyfromhell:
There is invalid information in title. It says your ROM is 2.3.7, however there is no such firmware released for our phones. And your first post says also "Based on android 2.3.4".
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
Thanks for noticing. Changed! :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ™ God ™:
Waiting for happiness :) Port to ray :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
There are some flashable zips which should make this rom work.

Its only for ics i try that before dont work :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] rsimas:
the v7 have the kill back button option?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
The changelog is there for a reason, and no.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] XtremeSilencer:
its very tough to add the back button mod !... isnt it? i am also trying on my rom.. :(

i am trying but everytime i get fc in settings and other things hence i have excluded it right now! :(

i have asked omenhtx to help me but no reply till now! ;(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
Unfortunately Omenhtx doesn't help anyone else :/ I have tried before. No reply...

I have a load of uni work to do for now, When I start my V8 I will let you know how I get on with adding it to my ROM :)

(ps - What antutu scores do you get on your ROM? With an Arc(s)? Interesting too see how your ROM is compared to mine. Just to ensure that we both have a fast ROM for our users! :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
But this "mod" has the thing we are looking for. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1306044 Might be useful :) You need certain framework files too BTW...

Tip with your signature - Use the images as links to your ROM - Makes it easier :) Do it like this :
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ™ God ™:
Hope you make a full ics mod addon
[Xperia Arc Android Development] XtremeSilencer:
ok i will use the images as links .. thanks for suggestion

and i dont think i am goona use that instead i am trying to use some framework from xgamer for the back button mod :P

and yes i didnt get a reply from omenhtx too :P thats bad :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] atmos929:
I searched through the thread and found out this ROM is supercharged :)... you should add this in the first post :)

edit: really? ROM is only 80 MB?? :eek:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
Pointless me making one. So many exist already. I would bring nothing new to the community.

haha xD xGamer is no longer too! He has ceased development :P No worries. Using the images as links makes it look neater and just is so much easier :)

Yep 80mb! :P Its lightweight ;) Not many widgets though. BUT widgets are a bad idea. I dont have any. Eat up battery life/RAM/speed
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
Development MIGHT be closed soon :/ My phone has a section of the screen missing.... Yeah! So I am looking at getting a nexus 4! BUT! BIG BUT! IF enough people say "Please continue" then I will think about it... My phone is useable. Just not for everyday usage. I am more than happy to make GB ROMS for you guys!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] XtremeSilencer:
no i mean just a few firmware files from his rom to make the back button mod work :P
[Xperia Arc Android Development] atmos929:
nuuuuu!!! <o>... please don't stop... we need more GB roms! :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
haha, when you do it, let me know and chuck the files over ;) Youd need his setting.apk + semcsettings.apk too.

Like I said, I might be stopping. Not sure yet.... My nexus 4 is on its way ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] XtremeSilencer:
yeah keep your arc for developing and trying out new cool roms by other peaple!

and nexus 4 for daily use :P
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
Yeah, I might do :) I installed your ROM the other day xD It is a good ROM (Y)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] atmos929:
and you can start porting stuff from the nexus 4 >:] lol
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
Maybe ;) BUT nexus 4 apps are designed for JB not GB :P So it would be so hard! BUT I might try and bring everything across onto CM10 xD and create a JB ROM thats pure android ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] atmos929:
alright... I'm trying out Xperia Plus in my PRO, here're my findings

* downloading internet settings doesn't work... I added the APN manually.

* @ key in hw keyboard doesnt work... fixed it by flashing keyboard map from here

everything else in hw keyb works fine (usually a concern among PRO users)

* no flashlight and no 2g/3g buttons in quickpanel... flashing the colorful quick panel that not everyone likes works good :)

I like puzzle games like diamonds dash, marble blast 3, they feel a bit laggy.

Had FCs with Voltage Control app, doesn't seem to like it for some reason... no-frills works good.

I totally loved the fact that it's only a 80 MB download... but you might consider adding latest google play, this one starts with the oooold app store.

ROM is overall smooth
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
Thanks very much for your feedback. I am going to get this sorted as soon as possible for you! :) Got loads of uni work to do first. But I will get the next version out ASAP
[Xperia Arc Android Development] atmos929:
Don't sweat it, personal life comes first :).

Is it me or Superuser works better in GB, and SuperSU works better in ICS? I think this is the reason why I was having trouble with Voltage Control app... I was checking on Atomic GB and started having the same issue with Voltage Control but then I also noticed that my SuperSU was acting strange and caused me lag, I disabled it and went back to superuser and it works fine now. This is probably the same in Xperia Plus.

From my experience with ICS roms I always felt that SuperSU was more stable, that's why I kept using it in GB roms... but it seems the other way around.

cheers!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
Root apps can always have problems. I am not sure which one is better though. superuser seems better to me on GB. Its what everyone uses... And yes SuperSU for ICS. Way to help avoid any lags is to update the binary.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kubakrizka:
(mk16i)

Keyboard map is from original ROM? SYM, ''. , ( ) : ; * '' ?

Re: [ROM][2.3.4] XPERIA PLUS [V7] [Arc(s)/Neo(v)/Pro] [Lightweight]Fast/Stable/Smooth

My first GB in two months (coming off xperia pureness, which is awesome and not as hyped up and fakely advertised as other popular ics roms. Kids these day, too much mtv lol)

Anyway..

Im on the one with the modded look (v7), I get an fc when I swipe notifications one by one on the status bar. 100% reproducible.

Edit: alright, it's a known bug. Bummer.

Cheers
[Xperia Arc Android Development] caqo71:
I Just installed V7 from scratch, all is OK, but SuperUser doesn't work. Everu app that I run ask for Root permition, and then it get stuk asking for root permitions. I tried to update SuperUser, and it hangs when it have to download new data.........

I'm using doomkernel v22 on a LT15 device. :confused:

EDIT: Nevermind. I was fully downloadin things from torrent, so the wifi was filled up. :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] atmos929:
at some point when upgrading superuser app and its binaries... it just never works when configured to auto-grant, it fails... but prompting should work... anyway I find that annoying and I usually change to SuperSU.

Even though I said above that superuser worked better for GB, I've been having problems with both... they start causing me lag... the best combination I've seen as of now is keeping superuser installed, but upgrade supersu app and update binaries in it... autogrant on supersu works good afterwards.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
Hi to everyone...

I regret to inform you all, that I will no longer be developing this ROM. However, Soon enough, I hope to continue developing Android ROMs within the future, but for now I will be taking a break from development, to ensure that my studies at university go very well!

I would like to thank everyone who has used my ROM. I will be keeping this thread live so that you can continue to download the ROM. I will try to answer all questions you have too.

Thank you to everyone who has downloaded this ROM, I have had over three thousand downloads of V7 and that is just amazing! So thank you :)

Downloading......
[Xperia Arc Android Development] caqo71:
Some Feedback:

Market is old, and it does not get updated automatically after setting up a google account.*

SuperUser is rather old, so permitions are not given easily*

There is lags at first start, but waiting some hours that the rom sttles, some lags still remains

Themes doesn't works, when you try to change theme, a black GB background is shown, but nothing more.

I use fancy widgets (paid), and the unlocker doesn't works.

That's for now.

* After rebooting, market gets updated, and the you can update superuser.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] barakaz:
Way no arabic :( ????? this rom is perfect please repair this issue
[Xperia Arc Android Development] apmartin1991:
Will update market in 8.1

Willupdate superuser in 8.1

Theme apk is missing so I will add it in 8.1

lags always happen at start, gone after 15 minutes and a reboot

I will be creating a widget pack (flashable)

Thanks, Anthony
