Check out "Wheres my droid" from the play store. It is full of great features. Can set up triggers from text or phone numbers to make it ring. You can get is location from sending a specific text to your phone. You can lock it down,take a pic and even wipe it clean. Great app

Actually, this is a really important point. Which of these apps are still able to perform their advertized functions after it is being lost? Supposedly, whoever is in possession of the phone will through out SIM card and do a factory reset so all apps that use google services will not work anymore as they are Signed out... Are apps from antivirus suites immune to this?

I tried searching and reading back a few pages, but did not see this topic. I hope this is appropriate.

ATT no longer allows you to just call in for the unlock code, you must submit online. According to them this atrix is not and has not been attached to an account and so they will not give me the code.

What are my options as it needs to be used on a European network.

Thanks!

I believe the U.S. used to have a ban on all unlocking for a year, but now it is cleared out due to a petition made to make unlocking legal again.

Yes, carriers do make it hard to unlock especially in the U.S. as well as for our Canadian friends up north. This is because carriers lose a lot of money when users take their business else where via unlocking.

The fastest way is to look online and get it unlocked from cell unlocking sites (watch out for scams) read reviews before placing orders.

I can only recommend cellphoneunlock as a viable option, but only because I had good experiences with them in the past.

It also does not hurt to call in to carriers and see what they say

I have had my N5 for a week now and its back in the box and the Play S4 takes its place, nothing about the N5 is any better than the S4 in fact its worse in available screen size, notification lights don't work and its so slippery I already dropped it twice, and the camera sucks asss, is this really the Google Flagship, I think not!!!!!!!! Not to mention the fact that the S4 has removable battery and SDcard

I had to pee today after I drank coffee, and then I had some toast. Today is a good day.
[Nexus 5 General] jojoluton:
heres your answer

The screen sizes are identical but Google uses the bottom portion for its on screen controls so the screen area ends up being about 3/8" shorter than the S4, just saying that's all, maybe not everyone realises

[Moto X General] dpw2atox:
I just got the invite email as well.....I'm very curious to see if this is indeed Kit Kat.
[Moto X General] xd1936:
This quote right here is why it's probably not 4.4. Never before has Verizon ever been "on it" with updates.

Weren't they the first with 4.3 for the Galaxy s4? That's all I'm basing my remark for. I could be wrong though. But hey, maybe they are turning things around haha
[Moto X General] jlambeth1:
Got my invite for the soak test as well. Don't think mentioning it here will raise a red flag with Moto as I chimed in on the last soak test here and some other site and didn't get kicked out of it. Now if I divulged anything from said soak test, I'm sure that would be a different story. Bring on the KitKat!!
[Moto X General] jayboyyyy:
while i mostly agree with your opinion (i mean i don't think verizon has ever released a new FW before another carrier ever in their existence), what could they be updating. just bug fixes on their end? Since moto never did a 4.3 FW for the moto x it couldn't be that. What is really scary is, if it isn't 4.4, then they may be expecting not to do a 4.4 for another few months. wouldn't make much since to fix bug issues in 4.2.2 if they have already or are about to begin fixing things for a 4.4 update...
[Moto X General] xd1936:
If Verizon lands 4.4 before the new year, I will be very surprised. Their track record, while it does have a few anomalies, is awful.
[Moto X General] remicks:
Just speculating but knowing big red it's probably not even a version bump lol... BUT it may be 4.4 since it seems that Motorola is taking a very hands on approach to the updates on the X.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] st3chn0:
Maybe resetting the knox counter has a similar method
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ytwytw:
I think there is a kernel binery that can disable the write protection on the bootloader

so that with root access, it is possible to reset the knox

well too bad those file cannot be found until someone in samsung leak it with risk of loss of their job...

(There is diag file for nexus 5, surprisingly useful for CDMA modder but also for other purpose, you know :) )

[Galaxy Note 3 General] Spiderboule:
No, it was full stock.

Dont know if it will work for every version but i just had to connect it to the network when asked and then before i went to the screen where the phone says it's locked, i connected the earphones and pushed 1 or 2 secs the button on the microphone to open S-voice. I said then "Start settings" and boom the settings menu opened, where "Reactivation Lock" was disabled. I enabled it with my samsung account and then wiped the phone and magic, now i enjoy my Note 3 :D

Weird, I just checked mine, reactivation lock will ask for password before letting you disable it.

When u access the menu with s voice after resetting, the option is not checked... u enable it with ur samsung account and it "overwrites" the existing samsung account... tested by me

it won't ask u for the old password cuz there is a bug (maybe it has been fixed, i'm on android 4.3 N9005ZHUDMJ9) and the phone just ask you for a samsung account like if u were activating it for the first time :)

I have a Sandisk 1GB Mini SD (as a lot of people do...).

1) Sometime the system lose sight of the mini sd for no reason.

I just have to take the card out and in again so that it recognize it.

2) I noticed that with TomTom when you pull out the card while it is connected to GPS the Wizard crashes and I have to Soft Reset.

It is not very good behavior from TomTom but the maps are stored on the MiniSd so it is certainly a problem for him.

The problem arise when you combine 1&2.

The result is TomTom crashing every half hour.

It is not very handy to reboot while driving...

Did someone noticed the same and found solutions?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Lord Buckingham:
I use the O2 Xda mini S with TOM TOM 5.2 and a 512MB twin Mos card and dont really see issues of crashing when the program is running. I have seen the error where the "no maps found" message is displayed when starting the program, only very occasionally. I have also seen this on all my devices at one time or another, using the supplied TOM TOMcards or other cards with the maps copied on to them. The only real problem card I had was a Sandisk 512MB card which crashed all the time with TT5 on my Xda2s
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] HTC HAWK:
on my previous ipaq also lots of problems with TT5 and Sandisk SD card.......even one time after the crash and automatic soft reset, the whole Benelux map directory was empty! So no more navigation possible, only after I re-installed with the original CDs at home :-(

The same Sandisk after that only used for digital photo camera, and after a week or 2, lots of problems...........bad sectors, etc, ..............

Conclusion: never a Sandisk mem card for me anymore (search the web and you find similar experiences).
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] davebo:
I used to get this, not now (so far...)

I used to get this on my XDA II, I had a faulty SD card from TomTom which they offeredf to change, but I just bought a HUGE Kingston high speed one instead. I still used to get no maps, but a soft reset sorted that out. Yes it is s pain when you are driving, but ... I think it's to do with the SD car being powered from the battery. Sometimes the battery doesn't have the power for the card and when the battery hits sufficient charge level it suddenly gets recognised. It also used to lock up my XDA II and need a hard reset if TT kicked in because the card beacme recognised and then powered off whilst TT was running.

With my XDA Mini S (Wizard) and a Moby Memory 1Gb card I haven't had that probmlem yet. <fingers crossed>

Wouldn't you just know it. As soon as I open my big mouth, my XDA Mini decides that it doesn't know the mini SD card is there. I needed to remove and reinsert the card to get it to recognise.
