AT&T is well-known for raping Android phones. Not only locked out from "side-loading", but market for AT&T version phone is raped too (search tethering and see what happens).

If Atrix came from T-Mobile, the story will be 180 degree different.

[General Topics] BigMcGuire:
A lot of people are moving to the iPhone for this very reason. Android is just too bloated and crappy thanks to Verizon or AT&T. I left Motorola after a happy 1.5 years with the OG Droid 1 for HTC. I think the HTC Thunderbolt is probably one of the last phones that we'll be able to root. If I wasn't able to root and remove all the bloatware and get 80% more battery usage --- I'd be an iPhone user right now. Pretty pathetic how Verizon and AT&T are raping Android all for a few bucks. At least Apple is smart enough to not load crapware/bloatware on their phones.
[General Topics] mg00000:
Tilted T Bolt and battery concerns....

Haha. So you've rooted yours? Would you say that it makes it worth the buy but only if-rooted? I'm being cautious in deciding my next verizon phone. I want it to work with the LTE but the batt life is scaring me. i want it to work, not just with tweaking the living hell out of it, and then hoping that the phone is able to be used with ROMs for a long time without needing service that won't be there once root is achieved. Let us know what your battery was like prior, and then now that you've changed the phone. I doubt i'd get one even if i knew the exact steps to get it perfect and enjoy a nice up-time.....since the phone's design itself is flawed. I mean, it makes a big deal of being a video watching device, and when plugged in (which we know we'll need to do) you can't set it up with the kick stand! Who puts the charging outlet on the side that will sit on the surface now preventing the phone from being flat?? I'm going to enjoy tilted movie watching? I think not....
[General Topics] 0Supermaster0:
Thats really really lame for sure.
[General Topics] BigMcGuire:
Yeah, I rooted mine. After installing a kernel that clocked down when screen is off, I'm getting insane battery life. Example: With light usage, stock, I'd get 6-10 hours before hitting red battery life. After root, with a bloatware removed rom, after 9 hours of similar use I was at 70% battery life. Just insane to see how the carriers take a great device and cripple it so much for a few pennies.

Four hours streaming pandora via bluetooth, on mobile data, mild sms activity, a few web searches.

Started at 96% now at 36%.

Of course id like more, but would u say this is average batt life? Been on this rom for a few days now, atleast two.
[Fascinate General] Kevin Gossett:
There's really no way anyone can "rate" your battery life because it's going to vary from person to person, phone to phone
[Fascinate General] stayin100:
Yea but it would be very easy for someone to judge if it was grossly out of line
[Fascinate General] Falcyn:
I'm actually somewhat surprised that 4 hours of Pandora streaming on mobile data WITH a constant Bluetooth connection only brought you down 60%. Constant data usage is brutal on its own; throw in Bluetooth and it only gets worse.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tneicna:
A vague question, is there an -easy- way to downgrade the PRI? 1.90 is consuming too much battery power, I only get 8 hours of normal time on it (3500mAh battery) compared to the 2 days of off/on again usage, prior to upgrade.

I've read through dozens and dozens of threads, with conflicting answers. My phone is rooted with unrevoked and the clockwork recovery mod (I was messing with other roms)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elegantai:
The same way you upgrade. Just get the individual files and flash them.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tneicna:
I assume you mean flash them on the boot menu? Renaming them to PC36IMG.zip?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elegantai:
I use amon but I imagine its the same for cwm, just flash the zip file like you would a rom.

Just download the PRI and NV zips from calkulin's radio thread. You flash them exactly like anything else. I don't know if it's necessary to wipe the caches, but I do it anyway since it doesn't hurt anything. It will tell you to reboot after flashing and take you to a screen with the evo and an arrow. From there you will see some text on the screen and it will boot you back into recovery and say clearing cache (or maybe deleting). It's done when it says that. After that just boot on up. I flashed just PRI at first. Battery life definitely improved. I then flashed the NV just for the hell of it. I don't really know if it did anything.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chnky18:

I go to recovery mode, install zip from SD. Load it, it installs so quick I can't read exactly what it is saying then I am back at the recovery menu. I boot into my phone and it still says I am running 1.90 PRI/NV. Any ideas? I am suffering from horrible battery life after flashing the Synergy RC1 ROM.

Every time I flash something different, I have to uninstall, reboot, then reinstall the drivers for it to pick up my phone again. Give that a try, and also try another usb port if still no go.
[Epic 4G General] synnmox:
Did you try re-installing your drivers? What happens when you connect your phone to another port on your comp?

I would re install drivers and connect to a diff port.

Another way to get connected to cdma or qpst is... plug in phone. You'll receive the prompt with three choices: charging, mass storage, and tethered modem. Select "tethered modem" then select "3g modem". then add your port in cdma or qpst.
[Epic 4G General] 6thgear76:
How do add the port with the method u mentioned?

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MiXed92:
Hi guys,

i previously wanted to post this in the developing threat but due to the 10 post rule I have to put it in here.

I experienced 3 really annoying bugs

1. When I change Volume with the hard keys I only see a wannabe loading circle which isn't even moving.

2. Most annoying... when I press home key to see last opened apps the phone reboots.

3. On WiFi internet connections gets interrupted many many times.

Oh before somebody asks : "yes I did a full wipe" and "yes I have the recommended radio"

Maybe someone can or will post this in developer threat or send it to the programmer, can't do that due to some strange reason either.

Greetings

The OP is correct, users with a post count less than ten cannot post in the Dev section. Read the recent "state of the site address".

Reading through your problems, it seems that something has gone wrong somewhere in the flashing process.

I would check the MD5 of the ROM and see if it matches the source. and perform another full wipe and try flashing again.

[Nexus S Accessories] jeffdgr8:
I have been searching for both a vehicle mount as well as a desktop dock for my Nexus S since I got it in December. While there have been a few 3rd party solutions trickling into existence, it's nice to see some official Samsung love! I can't post links yet, but check it out on their website: samsung.com by searching for ECS-V1A3BEGSTA or BECS-V1A3BEG (both seem to be model numbers). There currently isn't a price and if you add it to your cart it says it's on back order (for $0). But at least we know it's coming! Hope to see an official desk dock soon as well.

Also, interesting, it says it has an integrated charger (which is one thing I really want in a car mount), but I fail to see any evidence of it in the pictures. I'm curious how it works. I would also really like to see an integrated audio output, preferably (if possible) through the same micro USB connection as the charging and then allow for the 3.5mm output to split from the mount. This is what I used to do with my original MT3G and it was great to only have to make one connection to the phone.

[Nexus S Accessories] krohnjw:
Interestingly the back plate of the dock appears to have a cutout for the camera and speaker, but they are in the wrong position (wrong side in each case) given how the phone sits in the dock. I am also curious how they are going to do integrated charging. Perhaps those images aren't a final product shot.

Very nice mount! I already bought the adjustable dock from Proclip because I plan to get a tough case (whenever those are released). This would be nice with anyone without a case.
[Nexus S Accessories] DKYang:
It was never in stock to begin with.

It took Samsung to officially release the Galaxy S docks about 3-4 months after its release in the U.S. So I'm assuming it's going to take just as long for this dock to come out.

[Nexus S Accessories] Ceres66:
Anyone notice the description changed? It's looking more like a passive holder with a non-integrated charger. Disappointed. =(
[Nexus S Accessories] krohnjw:
Indeed, this would make more sense. I'm unsure how they would have integrated charging unless they somehow had a different back plate for the phone that would allow for conductive charging.

I'll still pick it up for $40 when it's available. It's a lot better than the the "universal" options out there. It is too bad the Nexus S doesn't have the contact/charging pins like the Nexus One did - that was a nice car dock to own (although a bit more pricey).

New description:
[Nexus S Accessories] frenzy757:
looks sweeeet
[Nexus S Accessories] jeffdgr8:
Sad it's only a passive mount after all. I'm still curious if there's a way to split the audio off the micro USB connection though, like phones like the original MT3G can do since they don't have a separate 3.5mm audio jack. This would at least allow me to only have to connect one cable. I have yet to be able to find even the right combination of cables that would do it, but the fact that ET-AUM3SBE is listed as Nexus S compatible looks promising. Does anyone know if this is possible?
[Nexus S Accessories] docsamsom:
40 USD is a right rip-off for a passive holder and a separate car charger. I got a car holder and charger off Ebay for GBP 7.95 and it is working remarkably well.

From the other car mount thread...

Well made and phone feels nice and secure. Sadly not a patch on the Nexus One dock as it is purely a phone holder and also hideously over priced but then I guess you pay for having the official dock. Will be taking a short drive at lunch today so will let you know how it gets on in battle conditions.

-

Did a pretty steady 30 mile round trip over lunch. The mount was fixed to the mounting pad that remained from the Nexus One dock on the dashboard of my rattle-tastic Mk1 MX5.

Nothing much to report other than the dock did it's job! The phone is held in securely on all four corners and can rotate freely. Once the desired angle is found, there is a large screw on the back that locks the phone in place. There is a cut-out for the camera lens and both the USB and audio ports are accessible.

The dock is recommended although the £30+ price is still too steep imho.
[Nexus S Accessories] Bolick:

Question... Is there any protection for the phone using this mount? What I find annoying about these mounts is that it scratches your phone at the clip point (from regularly taking phone in/out of mount) and with vibration from car certain parts of your phone will show wear/scratches.

Just wondering how this mount is with regards to protecting your phone. Thanks!

The mount is made from a reasonably flexible plastic which holds the phone securely but so far has left no marks.
