[Vega Android Development] O_G:
You need to re-flash the official v1.09 firmware. Hold down the power button for 6 sec. Then plug device into power and connect to pc with usb. Hold down the back button for 2 sec then while still holding back push the power button for 2 secs, hold the back button for further 2 secs. A new device will pop up in your hardware manager under usb. Then run the stock v1.09 rom. Hope you backed up your applications with the software tool in settings.

You dont need this performance pack with v1.09.
[Vega Android Development] dazzlet:
where is the link to the pack for 1.09 software thanks
[Vega Android Development] O_G:
No performance pack is needed with v1.09. Its faster than v1.08.
[Vega Android Development] loui1986:
v1.10 definately does not get the lines, I thought I was imagining them until just now, so I may well have to put my graohics module back to stock 1.10 from the myadventvega rom. Thanks for the pack, and where the hell is the thanks button, it won't let me thank you...
[Vega Android Development] O_G:
V1.10 Has fixed most of the graphic glitches. Odd that you cant thank me. Glad you are enjoying my work:)

Take it easy.
[Vega Android Development] fubofo:
Gonna be a stupid question but...

which ROM is this for? Will it work / do anything on VegaICS?
[Vega Android Development] yani2000:
Yes, this IS a stupid question. :p

NO, it will NOT work with VegaICS and has nothing to do with VegaICS or any custom ROM.

This is purely for STOCK v1.08 firmware (Android OS v2.2 - Froyo).
[Vega Android Development] fubofo:
LOL thoguht as much. Could OP maybe add 'stock' in the first post somewhere to save any future hassle? ;)

Author thinks that "[atrix price] seems very agressive". WTF is he smoking?
[Atrix 4G General] Rred:
I wouldn't call it aggressive but I'd call it competitive, given the larger market. They could have asked $299 instead of $199 and they'd have gotten it.

Consider the GalaxyS phones which were still $199 a month ago, and the Atrix is supposed to be more phone (i.e. fingerprint security and a working GPS<G>). Sure, today there are retailers selling the GalaxyS unlocked and off contract for $199 and the cellcos are asking anywhere from a penny to $49...But that's the nature of smoke and mirrors.

I expect, or at least hope, the resellers will be asking $149 to beat AT&T's $199. Not aggressive, but not as piggypiggy as they normally are, either. For an AT&T employee, anything less than "Your firstborn and your wallet" is probably a radical concept.

Remember, they're still trying to convince us that phones which wholesale for $100-200 really cost them $600. (Don't you love the new math?!)
[Atrix 4G General] mcsinny99:
Author thinks that "[atrix price] seems very agressive". WTF is he smoking?[/QUOTE]

He is smoking the highest quality crack rolled up in our hundred dollar bills. "Aggressive"? Yes it's aggressive towards our wallets. If att doesn't straighten out their billing philosophies they will be losing customers like mad. I really hope verizon puts out some cheap unlimited plan and they steal as many iphone users as possible.
[Atrix 4G General] acPIZZA:
I still don't understand the "aggressiveness" over the pricing. $200 is reasonable - it is what I had paid for iPhones every year in the past, and I believe At&t is pricing the Atrix similarly because it is a direct competitor for the iPhone 4.

As far as the laptop dock pricing goes, who cares? The laptop dock is essentially a useless bell/whistle. How many of you own laptops? (most of you probably do) Your laptop is much more powerful than this webtop os. Motorola is just showing what the phone can do. It's an uneccesary extra, especially since the laptop dock requires the tethering plan... when you can just tether to your actual laptop.

Nerds are all up in arms because it's going to cost $500 to showcase their coolness with the latest and greatest piece of redundant technology.

I'm ok with the phone pricing and can't wait for it to come out. I gladly sold and shipped out my iPhone 4 for this beauty. March 6th can't come soon enough.
[Atrix 4G General] irishtexmex:
-_-

Paint with a narrower brush next time. I don't think anyone scrolling through XDA has any ground to call someone a nerd in a derogatory way.
[Atrix 4G General] acPIZZA:
I apologize if it sounded derogatory. I'm a nerd myself - and a huge one at that.

My implications were, that the dock is essentially nothing more than a keyboard and screen, and it seems silly to piss and moan over a $500 price point. Is it overpriced - Yes. Does the tethering plan tack-on make sense - eh, maybe. Do we need this accessory for any reason other than to show it off (assuming you own a laptop/netbook) - absolutely not. To me it seems more like a no-brainer, and if it evokes any response/thought it is that I am almost glad it's $500 - at least I wont be tempted in the store when I go to pick up the Atrix.
[Atrix 4G General] Squeak22:
I agree. The only thing I might buy is the multimedia dock with keyboard/mouse, that way i can use it to mess around with what (hopefully) can be a full linux distribution on a phone and make it a second comp of sorts that I can have at my desk.
[Atrix 4G General] irishtexmex:
That's what all the pissing and moaning is about though--that just a screen and a keyboard costs $500. However, being quick to dismiss it and its potential use is what I was referring to when I made the "painting with a broad brush" remark. So, apologies for coming off snarky. I don't mean to bring about any conflict here. :)

However, I ask you what kind of laptop do you have, and what are its primary uses? I have an HP HDX16 which is a 16" 16:9 laptop workhorse that is a nice do-everything machine when it comes to gaming, media, and graphic design. However, one thing it is not great for is internet surfing. My battery lasts 2 hours tops, it's a larger sized laptop, and while I don't consider it heavy, it is certainly much heavier than the Atrix's lapdock. Maybe you need to carry such a machine with you everywhere you go, but I have a ****ton of textbooks I need to carry in my backpack and the only thing I need to use my laptop for on campus is to surf the web and write notes in a word processor. The Atrix nails that, and makes me salivate at the thought of not having to take a charger with me/8 hours of battery life.

I'm just saying that there's more practical uses for it than just surfin' the internet while you poop.
[Atrix 4G General] FLAC Vest:
No, it isn't aggressive. I think 200 should be the limit for subsidized phones; hell it costs around that fir them to buy it anyway (from China or wherever it is made).

If it were really aggressive, the laptop dock wouldn't be more than 150 since it is just a screen and a battery; keyboard.

They also wouldn't charge for tethering. That would actually make it a real threat to other phones.

With the pricing now, I can only see business people and maybe small enterprise or serious bloggers picking this up.

Captivate 2.2.1 Paragon
[Atrix 4G General] ram8704:
150?

Some of you guys are kidding yourselves regarding the dock. 150 makes little sense. First you have a dock so lets say $60 then a keyboard say $40. Then a HD led screen $150-200 on its own easy. Yes the dock is to expensive, but I would say that it should cost between 200-300 regular. Maybe if ATT was being generous they would make a bundle with the dock costing 150 and the phone 150 with the purchase of the tethering plan. Thats just my .02.
[Atrix 4G General] naxir:
agreed with acPIZZA. I've had a netbook for about a year now. It's nothing special but gets 7-9 hour battery life and allows me to do basic computing tasks on it. Getting the laptop dock would be redundant.
[Atrix 4G General] Squeak22:
Your pricing is so out of wack I dont' even know where to start.

The laptop dock probably costs them $100 to manufacture. I've put projects like this together, so I'm pretty confident in this cost structure from a CM perspective. This is just them gouging the early adopters. It will probably come down to 2-300 pretty fast, and probably under 200 toward the end.
[Atrix 4G General] Milkshakes00:
How much does a good laptop battery go for nowadays?

Ultimately, they're here to make money. Of course it's going to be "high" compared to their production price. =/
[Atrix 4G General] Squeak22:
I never said it wouldn't be. My point was that the previous poster was putting together consumer products and making an incorrect assumption.
[Atrix 4G General] Benz360:
The phone is priced at a steal, the accessories not so much. If you're looking for just the phone this is a great deal.
[Streak 5 General] ghostcorps:
Hi Guys

I have just busted my screen, and I am hoping there is a way to image the OS so that I can flash it to a replacement if need be.

nb. Before anyone mentions warranty, I bought it on ebay :(

I am calling around to get the screen replaced, but if not I might have to get a new one and I am loath to have to reconfigure it again.

I remember reading that this can be done, but can not find the article again, like making a custom ROM... Is it possible?

Thanks in advance :)
[Streak 5 General] lufc:
If you have clockwordmod recovery or New StreakMod Recovery installed then you can do a Nandroid Backup
[Streak 5 General] ghostcorps:
Awesome! :)

I have clockwork recovery mod.

I'll see how I go, do you know of any detailed instructions? I will need to do it half blind, because I cant see the screen.
[Streak 5 General] ghostcorps:
It may be a long shot, but it there a chance I can get into the clockworkrecoverymod via adb and initiate the nandbackup that way?
[Streak 5 General] ghostcorps:
.. and by extension, is there a way to connect adb to the phone without usb debugging?

Or, just as unlikely... I don't suppose I can add a bootup script to the sdcard that turns on USB debugging when I turn on the phone?
[Streak 5 General] ghostcorps:
I am in adb :)

I created a virtual dvice and used that as the guide for where to press :D

I am looking for the command to create a nandroid backup via adb (if there is one). But if anyone already knows, please fill me in

[General Questions and Answers] Jabester:
Hi Everyone.

I am a brand spankin' new owner of my Droid X. I must say I love the phone except I sorta hate the keyboard. My last phone was a blackberry storm- hated that phone but loved its keyboard! Is there a keyboard that anyone would recommend (preferably free but not mandatory at all)? My thumbs, I have come to realize, are sightly bigger than most. I do not care for swype and the other keyboard has the period next to the space bar so most of sentances.look.like.this.

I appreciate any help.

Also. My battery makes it half way through the day before I have to re-charge. Any pointers/suggestions/apps that could help? Again, Thank You for helping me.

[General Questions and Answers] natet1:
I really like the gingerbread keyboard. You can find it in the market and it is free.
[General Questions and Answers] mtlons:
How long did you try swype for? It takes a little while to get used to but it can work very well. If you go the swype settings (under settings - keyboard settings) you can adjust the speed vs accuracy slider...try sliding it towards accuracy. The droid x is pretty fast and doesn't slow easily.

Swiftkey and the gingerbread keyboard are both great alternatives if you don't like swype.

Battery issues - Juice defender. Turns off 3g connection when not in use, and you can adjust the polling interval to sync gmail/facebook/etc. Phone calls and texts are still always on. I think there's an option in it to set brightness to automatic. If there isn't, there is an option in the phone settings. If battery life remains an issue, there are extended batteries, but I think the require a different cover as well that makes the phone thicker.

Did you just get the phone? Every time I get a new phone (or install a new rom) I spend a lot of time playing around with settings and downloading/trying new apps, so I kill the battery quickly.
[General Questions and Answers] Mark Uhde:
I really am a huge fan of Swype, but it does take some people a few days to get used to. Remember that you don't HAVE to Swype everything - you can tap out words that are easier to just tap out (short words) and Swype longer words to save time. Overall, I think that once you get used to it you will really like Swype. Play with it for a few more days before you give up!
[General Questions and Answers] SmithEC:
I really like Smart Keyboard. There is a free version available in the Market.

It has an option to hide the period and the comma. This enlarges your space bar. To get to the period or the comma, you just go to numbers.

If you download it, be sure to explore all the settings. It seems to download with a Iphone default skin, which I don't find appealing. You get to choose such skins as Galaxy, HTC, or maybe Android.

I love it. I used the free version for maybe ten minutes before I bought Pro. I do believe the free version was fully functional. It's use included an extra splash screen that was supposed to be annoying, but actually not annoying at all IMO.

I would say SwiftKey is the best, hands down. Make sure you install the language pack for your country and then choose the option to update the language packs.
[General Questions and Answers] perosredo:
SwiftKey is fast and smart.

I give it 13 out of 10. I'd give it 14 if it was skinnable/themable.
[General Questions and Answers] MrObvious:
I tried Swiftkey and I couldn't get the hang of it when I had my Eris (maybe I should have tried a week). Really Smart Keyboard is nice and you will love the Compact QWERTY (which is just like the Storm I believe). Plus as is mentioned it is customizable. It is free minus you get an annoying popup once the first time you use the keyboard in the day and after five seconds you can tap and get rid of it and you're good (A.K.A. free!).

I tried a few other keyboards and Smart is the best for an onscreen keyboard in Android. It's the closest to the iPhone I could find and best second to a BB keyboard.
[General Questions and Answers] Besieged:
I couldn't get the hang of SwiftKey either until I installed and updated the language packs. Initially it was taking correctly spelled words and changing them to things completely unrelated. After that It all worked good.

After some hours any alerts sounds stop and that means message sound, call sound, alarm sound, etc. this is a bit annoying cause i have many calls and i can't hear them because sound dont work, even the volume is max. But there is a strange thing that i notice. when i put a song to hear (like mp3) for the first 3-5 seconds sound still is off and then i monitor shows that i miss signal (like signal reboot) and the sound is ok again. i have an Energy rom and before i flash it i always task29 my device.

I would just like to say a few words for those that will listen. It's been a great ride this past half a year or so, and I'm glad to say I've had a wonderful time here in the Droid Eris forums.

So, now it is my time to move on to the DInc forums and leave my favorite place on XDA. But don't think of it as goodbye.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shaddy-Z.:
So I searched and couldn't find a direct answer basically here it goes,

I'm using CM7 and the gingerbread keyboard that comes stock. This has been happening since alpha and it slows down my texting. I'm a big texter, and I send about 25-35 thousand texts a month. So I need this to be fixed!

What happens, is that when I'm normally texting sometimes letters will automatically type themselves twice. Such as if I'm texting the word "always" it will usually come out as "aalways" and it looks dumb. I love the gingerbread keyboard but I might have to result in using another keyboard if this continues!(Does this drain battery life?) I don't want to use swype.

If there's a fix let me know! And I checked for a calibration setting and couldn't find one :/
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InGeNeTiCs:
Also happens to me. I just go back and fix it. It's not a HUGE problem, but it's there.

Happens to me also. I Googled it to make sure I'm not the only one. I was starting to think I had the beginning signs of Parkinsons. It's good to know I'm not the only one.

I've also noticed that there are times when the auto-suggest does not work. If you stop typing for a few seconds it comes back. And I've also had a problem with the keyboard not responding as fast I am typing and I have to slow down so it can keep up.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onthecouchagain:
Yes, this is a frustrating reoccurring issue. Sometimes it'll even give you double letters of two of the first letters in a word, for example, "like ththis." It's especially ridiculous when it happens to only two letter words, like "to" for example, which results in "I'm going toto the movies."

If you are only replacing the images that are already in either one of the themes, then all you would need to do is drag and drop your images into the theme with the correct name. if you want to add any images, then you would have to look at the source for the files to see how to add the images to the various .xml files that they would need to be added into. if you're just overwriting existing images, you should be able to resign it when finished, and it should work just fine.
