It also looks (per the modmymobile site) like the source code for the Cliq 2 was released yesterday. Hopefully some custom roms and an overclocked kernal come out soon!!

I'll wait to root until I see something come up.

I found 3 roms for cliq 2 and cwm recovery ,questions? rmjrjay@hotmail.com
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WileyDigital:
I have searched high and low for ROMs for this phone, all I have found is the gingerbread update but still comes with blur.

I was really hoping CM had made a ROM for this by now, but nothing. I see this thread has also been dead for sometime as well. Has anyone come up with any Custom ROMs for the Cliq2?

Hi could you help me rooting my moto cliq 2 has GB 2.3.6 from stock and took more than six months around trying to do it without even results thanks.

I've been trying to follow the steps in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=949497

but I'm having trouble in step 3, getting ClockworkMod Recovery working. I'm on EA28, I'm successfully rooted, and I've flashed the cwm_froyo.tar via odin and put the update.zip in the root of my sdcard. But when I try to reboot into ClockworkMod Recovery, via the "Backup Current ROM" option in ROM Manager, the stock recovery loads and I get an error saying:

E: failed to verify whole-file signature

E: signature verifcation failed

installation aborted

In the blue text of the stock recovery, I have the option to install sdcard:update.zip, but if I try that I get the exact same error.

Any ideas?

EDIT: I don't know what I was doing wrong, but I just went back to an older CWM, which worked fine, then I was able to run the new one from there. This thread can be pulled.

Hello!

I currently have RCMix HD 2.0 AP2SD rom on my Htc Desire, but since it is too slow for me, i read on forum that RCMix HD Data2Ext is much faster. I have Ext3 partition, which is 512MB, and 6,2GB Fat32. Since i must create two partitions Ext4, and one Swap partition, i should format my sd card, and i am wondering if that operation will erase all, including ClockWorkMod, and i will not boot into recovery mode, to install data2ext rom? Any guide, tutorial for this would be nice...

Thanks!
[Desire General] davebugyi:
It won't delete CWM, becaus it is not on your SD Card.

Use GParted for partitioning (also a video in the RCMix HD 2nd post - how to).
[Desire General] ZigmaDK:
You should partition your SD like this and in that order:

(Taken directly from the thread)

* D2EXT version - Fat32 + Ext4 + Ext4 + Swap (fat+1GB+0.3GB+0.1GB) recommended, but works without swap and with one ext partition too.

[myTouch 4G General] Zdravkobg:
Hey, really quick question here.i just read somewhere that setting taskkiller to autokill actually decreases your battery. At first I thought it was a load of bs, but then I read that "android does a very good job in running and managing the apps it needs to run. By interrupting this regime,you are forcing android to keep opening and closing the apps."

Is this possibly true? Or is it just bs. Btw, I am using taskkiller with autokill.
[myTouch 4G General] kevo817:
i quit using the task killer from the market, let the phone do it's own thing, and my phone runs smoother and lasts longer...
[myTouch 4G General] neidlinger:
Before the flame fest gets stated you need to read through THIS and study it.

Android is built off of the Kernel style of computers operating systems. Like what Apple and Linux use. These machines [Apple and Linux] are natively Multi-Tasking monsters. And people who are not familiar with them do not know this. They only know that windows slows down with the more windows you have open. So they think the same thing about their SmartPhone (Android/Blackberry/iOS/WebOS) so they want to throw task killers on their phones. I've owned Blackberries i know they ask for them. And I know retail stores push them, and i know your "buddy" probably recommend it to you. But the truth is Android esp. with 2.2 and greater will handle Multitasking better than any developed application can do it. In fact most ROM developers will not accept a log if you use a ATK. The ROM cannot do what it needs to do if you are forcing to do something else. i'd promise you if you remove that ATK your phone will run better and get better battery life.
[myTouch 4G General] dani26286:
yeah, it's true. same thing happened to me. i have read about that somewhere to, and a realized it makes perfect sense, since it comes from linux. i just let froyo do it's thing, and my battery improves, not that much, but enough for me to notice, plus apps dont FC that much anymore.

Check out what cyanogen himself has to say about the matter.
[myTouch 4G General] ChodTheWacko:
I'm new to the android thing, but I've done homework, so pardon me if this question is dumb.

I understand that an app, when loaded into memory, simply gets unloaded as android deems necessary. Fair enough.

Where task killers seem to be useful is when you run an app which then fires off a service/server, and it will continue to bleed off cpu even after you've exited.

Or more annoyingly it will ping the network for refresh data automatically.

(which I'm trying to avoid since I'm on a limited data plan).

Since I'm on a limited data plan, I poked around in the app a bit and couldn't figure out why it was doing that. Since I couldn't (shouldn't?) kill it, I just uninstalled it and rebooted the phone.

It's not a big deal, but it feels a bit needless and overkill.

- Frank
[myTouch 4G General] carmeng4evr:
honestly task killers are subjective

it seems like if a phone has a lot of ram ala mytouch 4g then task killers arent needed as much

But things with 512 mb of ram, need a task killer alot

and this is my opinion

i've never had any adverse effects from using a task killer...been using one since november 2009

I recommend them for all android users...it takes to long to wait for android to do it itself
[myTouch 4G General] jdkoren:
If you're rooted, you can download an app called AutoKiller Memory Optimizer. This app doesn't kill tasks; instead, it lets you modify system settings that determine when to start closing apps to release memory.

[Xoom General] magicdroid:
Unless Motorola or Verizon officially say it was a misprint... yeah.
[Xoom General] dwboston:
It's not true. Best Buy will not sell the device without activating it with month to month data before you leave the store. There isn't a way for VZW or BB to lock out the WiFi if 3G data isn't activated, they just won't sell the device unactivated. You can cancel month to month data at any time, since there's no contract. There are a lot of misconceptions and misunderstanding around data plans. Since there's no subsidy on the device (if the leaked BB ad pricing is true) there's no contract.
[Xoom General] Xevilious:
I really wish that Motorola would actually come out and refute this information, if it is, in fact, misinformation gone viral. I think that Best Buy ad has done a great deal of damage to the potential success of this tablet.
[Xoom General] vamp6x6x6x:

[Xoom General] j2hott23:
I don't see why this wouldn't be true. Its the same way with the Verizon Galaxy Tab at Best Buy. As I was purchasing mines back in November the Sales rep told me I could cancel the plan as soon as I walked out the store.

Hell, now that I think about it I purchased another Verizon Galaxy Tab for my brother for his Christmas gift (also from Best Buy) and didn't have to activate it.
[Xoom General] kenyu73:
I say the activation is NOT required. There's a post somewhere in this Xoom forum where a "self claimed" MOTO tester said that they skip activation all the time and have no issues with WiFi.

I personally think that the activation "fine print" is there for the 3G/4G tethering option they are advertising with the Xoom... basically, no activation, no tethering...

You were never required to activate the Galaxy Tab on purchase, but you couldn't bypass the activation without doing a Google search and doing the "Up/Down, Up/Down, ... " method to bypass the activation screen.

I call BS on the activation requirement, but I do think the $799 cost is true... <sigh>
[Xoom General] gogol:
Christmas wishlist? Do you mean Christmas December 2011?

By then, there will be a whole lot more Android Honeycomb devices.

Maybe Android Ice Cream Sandwich!

Wifi only ... and for sure the price will go down a lot.

To be honest, I don't think it is the right time to buy gadget during Christmas, because it is way too close to "CES" on January. Which you will droll on the new product announcement.
[Xoom General] setite:
Here is my question about the activation. Assuming it's not something on the tablet, and just that they wont let you out of the door without activating it. If you cancel it 20 minutes later when you get home, without using any data.. will you get charged? 2 Year contracts have a grace period IIRC.. why not month to month.
[Xoom General] Sirchuk:
Yay! You can find the cached versions of BestBuy.com's Xoom launch site on Google.

Assuming the price was temporary and it really is $799, I found 2 things interesting.

For one, the main Xoom intro site (found here) says:

Confirming a data plan is required.

However, on the actual device page (found here) it doesn't say that, it simply says :

And for a contract/internet it says:

Anyhow, it likely just neglects mentioning the required plan on the product page, but I'm still holding out hope that it's not required, we'll see though.
[Xoom General] TheZuneLune:
If you already have a Verizon Wireless account can you just add it to that?
[Xoom General] gigglebox:
If I had to put money on the table, I’d bet on what many have explained as Bestbuy simply not selling the device without the customer “also” buying a month of data.

However, if that’s true, then I’ll pose this scenario:

Guy walks into a BestBuy… He has cash in hand for the device (off contract), tax, and activation fee. Walks through the process and finds via the credit check that for some reason, Verizon cannot approve him. What happens next?

Does BestBuy sell him the tablet? Has BestBuy “already” sold him the tablet (depending upon when data plan enrollment takes place in the process)?

Is there some sort of blood pack promise to simply not use WiFi? Self-destruct sequence activated on the 802.11 radio?
[Xoom General] burningembers:
I canceled my Verizon Galaxy Tab within 24 hours and was refunded the activation fee just fine, however they made me pay a pro-rated $1.03

IIRC, with Verizon you have up to 72 hours to cancel and reclaim your activation fee and beyond that you just pay a pro-rated amount of your usage.

With my Samsung Focus Windows Phone 7 on AT&T, I canceled on day 16 of the first 30 days and they gave me back my activation fee and didn't make me pay any pro-rated, they just zero'd it out.

For my Sprint Galaxy Tab I was month to month, but you pay 2 months bills initially, so when you cancel you aren't charged "more", but it doesn't deactivate until the end of the month you already paid for.

Hope that helps.
[Xoom General] Jrockttu:
You're correct. It's on Verizon's website under their Return Policy
[Xoom General] TheZuneLune:
Were you an existing customer? As far as I can tell, even existing customers are subjected to the whole credit check process. I asked VZ via online chat last night and they said yes, new line and credit check are required. She hinted that could all be avoided by calling customer care. Also, I tried to start an order for a Galaxy Tab to see how it worked and you can only upgrade or add a new line.
[Xoom General] atoy74:
In the Wirefly unboxing the unit boots up to configuring your account. At that point it says if you do not have cellular access to click and setup your wifi settings. Seems to me that BB is just forcing everyone to get 1month of Verizon service as a policy and not cause of technical limitations.

Plus, since the device is basically a Google Experience device, seems a little "ungoogle" to make you sign up for cellular service. At least from the software side.

Unboxing video - http://goo.gl/P0jSc

Go to 7m03s and see what I'm talking about.
[Xoom General] TheZuneLune:
I think it only proves he didn't get his device through normal retail channels Obviously, Verizon is making it a requirement. They are also making it a requirement on the Galaxy Tab.

What are the best PDF reader Apps?

I am compiling a list of the best apps of each category, so leave your opinion and a quick reason to help out the community.

If the app costs $, be sure to say so!

I have tried repligo and beamreader, they're pretty similar. What I would like is for an app to let me make a bookmark where I left off.

Repligo goes to where you left off when you open a doc, but you can't actively mark it. Repligo also overlaps the titles and size/date of files, making it tough to read. It also does not read image pdfs well, just a giant red X or black page.

Beamreader does not go to where you left off, and scrolling sucks in it (its like you need to pull a rubber band and snap it in 2 before it gets to the next page).

Btw, both cost money and are good.
