Yeah I posted to quick. Looked into it closer after posting.

People suck.
[Atrix 4G General] kennethpenn:
They do! ;)
[Atrix 4G General] Athailias:
Nope, but I got the cancellations department to get my two for 199 hehe
[Atrix 4G General] thunderpack:
Try going in store.
[Atrix 4G General] kennethpenn:
If you have an AT&T Premier account, call AT&T support, tell them your account isn't showing the $100 rebate for premier customers on no-commitment pricing.

For me, they had to "update my rate plan" and then it all worked out.
[Atrix 4G General] eallan:
They had to do the same for me. The Premiere code was out of date or something, so they fixed it and the 399 was no problemo. This also didn't affect my plan or features.
[Atrix 4G General] nowise:
First time poster. I just preordered one of these at $399. I have a premiere account through my workplace. EXCITED.
[Atrix 4G General] lsxrx7:
they blow me off again

just saying my account is not eligible
[Atrix 4G General] lorijuan1024:
how do i get it for 399 it says 499 wtf when i add to the cart and everything
[Atrix 4G General] dew.man:
Are you guys that are getting the additional 100 off at least one year into a contract?
[Atrix 4G General] nowise:
My contract is at about 14 months in and I got the $100 off.
[Atrix 4G General] kennethpenn:
No. I'm just a premier customer!
[Atrix 4G General] jsuresh:
What the hell AT&T???

My contract is not eligible for upgrade until August 2011. I am premier customer and I called Premier Support to place the pre-order at no commitment price and got it for $399 + tax. I clearly asked the ask if this price is for no commitment and he said yes. Now, my account shows my contract expiration date is 2/16/2013. WTF???

Can someone please check their account and see if they see the same thing?
[Atrix 4G General] Squeak22:
399 is not no commitment price. It's a price that's available for contract extension.

Upgrade is at 1 year left on contract. This is a discount for contract extension prior to the 1 year upgrade policy.
[Atrix 4G General] lsxrx7:
now this make sense
[Atrix 4G General] mrmyth:
Are you checking contract end date under My Profile>User Information?

When I check there it shows my contract is still ended, but I paid 299.99 (it showed 199.99, but I'm coming from a non-smartphone unlimited internet on a Premier account and it wouldn't let me add the data plan to get the discount.)

If it turns out I paid 300 for no contract re-up then cool beans.:cool:
[Atrix 4G General] jsuresh:
Well, that is not what I was told by the premier rep. I specifically asked him if it is the no commitment price and he said YES. When I log into the premier upgrade site, it says at the top that I am not eligible for upgrade and it can get a phone at no-commitment price. That is how I got this phone. As I said, my line is eligible for upgrade in August so there is no big benefit of paying 399+ tax for few months before the eligible upgrade.

I am checking the contract expiration date under My Profile -> User Information.
[Atrix 4G General] nowise:
My Profile -> User Information

Contract end date

10/15/2011

Mine didn't change. I will check again after pre-order ships and possibly refuse delivery if it changes.
[Atrix 4G General] jsuresh:
Did you buy it through Premier and paid 399+ tax?
[Atrix 4G General] eallan:
Well the benefit is not having a contract :)
[Atrix 4G General] nowise:
I sure did.
[Atrix 4G General] jsuresh:
On the phone with premier support, asking them to get my contract reverted back to its original state.
[Atrix 4G General] TexUs:
The way I see it...

$200 w/ contract extension.

$500 off contract - $300 profit from selling Captivate = $200.

One way you get a new contract. The other way you don't. No brainer?

I'm going to see if ATT will (after four replacement Captivates) let me get the Atrix for free, first though.

Does anyone else have the "Smartphone Personal" feature??? When I was mock-buying this thing it said it was incompatible. I'm wondering if they're forcing you into a new 2GB plan.
[Atrix 4G General] jsuresh:
Finally got them to revert back to my original expiry date by cancelling the existing order and placing a new no-commitment order at the same price.
[Atrix 4G General] siburny:
I too have the same plan. But it will all depend on how easy it would be to root the phone (if it would be possible at all).

[off]I liked it a lot that Captivate has such big and strong developer community: I was able to root and flash custom rom on it in the first hour of the ownership by reading this forum :)[/off]
[Atrix 4G General] TexUs:
I'm fine without root for awhile.

I flashed stock ROM back, didn't even root it- and the stupid phone still gives me issues.

If I can pick the Atrix up and everything WORK that's on it, that's all I care about. Root is a huge plus for later.

(I don't think we've seen a phone that's not been rooted- so don't worry about it). Even the DroidX was rooted.

I worry about dev support as well. There's too many excellent phones out there now, kinda spreading the devs thin, I think.

The Galaxy S II is mighty tempting still. Thinner, lighter, the display is better... Gosh. It's still Samsung though.
[Atrix 4G General] siburny:
Couldn't agree less! I pre-ordered mine through premier channel, so hopefully we gonna receive them soon!
[Atrix 4G General] thecooperiii:
so excited to get mine. First of the new wave of android superphones!!
[Atrix 4G General] jefftab11:
I pre-ordered last nite. What's up with March 6 being on a sunday, what am I missing???:confused:
[Atrix 4G General] ricethief:
AT&T usually releases new devices on Sundays
[Atrix 4G General] kennethpenn:
I was wondering about this. I know AT&T loves Sunday device launches, but there is also no post on Sunday. Does this mean pre-orderers will get their devices before or after March 6th? Who knows!
[Atrix 4G General] beazie0885:
i spoke with business care about the whole pre-order $100 debacle and the rep i talked to said that AT&T would actually be receiving the phones on the 6th and we (with pre-orders) would be receiving them after the 6th and that that would actually be the date that they would be shipping them out. but thats just rumor tho. We will see. bout to check my account now and see if anything has popped up.
[Atrix 4G General] n0kia916:
Never order online

Trying to check and order over the phone with business premiere would of cost me 571.82 after tax and shipping! Web order saves a lot of money and free shipping =P good thing I checked before telling the lady to press the magic button on her side..

One more thing..I asked her about the Atrix being on back-order for no commitment pre-orders and she said...Atrix is not on backorder.. =)
[Atrix 4G General] kennethpenn:
Nice! I hope it isn't backordered. I don't think so. Only people who ordered it a few days ago were emailed that message, it seems. Perhaps they fixed the system to not send out the false message.
[Atrix 4G General] theknub:
I believe all premier customers received the back order message.
[Atrix 4G General] kennethpenn:
I'm Premier... I ordered and never received the email.

Of course, I could receive it tonight or tomorrow and have to bite my tongue.
[Desire HD General] Dyonas:
I got a notification a few minutes ago about a new app or plug-in available but when I tried to see what it was the HTC Hub app failed to pull any data from the Sense site. Did anyone else get the notification and if so, what is it? Curiosity is killing me!
[Desire HD General] Nodeuk:
Its HTC Media Link, the details say:
[Desire HD General] Dyonas:
It is? I already had that in the list :/ HTC Sense website at its best, telling me about things I already know about!
[XPERIA X10 General] TidusWulf:
I work for Wireless Advocates (costco phone kiosk) and I won a Sony Xperia X10. they ended up sending me what appears to be a refurb (not that I'm complaining. free is free!) and I tried calling ATT, who I have service with, and they said that any phone sold on contract has to wait a certain amount of time before the unlock code can be given. well, I was pushing the guy on the phone to give me a little more info (he said the computer told him the code refused to pop up) and he said that the computer said it can't generate a code until August 4th and that only phones bought at full value can be unlocked without waiting a certain time period (which is understandable. I knew that already). it sucks because I didn't buy this phone on contract and every other phone I've won was brand new and I was able to get the unlock code immediately D:

oh well, such is life. In the mean time, I debranded it, put 2.1, and removed all the garbage apps and now the benchmarks are on par with the Galaxy S! aww yeah :cool:
[XPERIA X10 General] unknown13x:
my suggestion would be calling back in and say that you got the code already, and even removed their junk apps :D I guarantee you they would be dumb founded and reply "Oh really? Well I'm glad it worked out for you" while they have no idea what you are talking about LOL
[XPERIA X10 General] alankstiyo:
wait until august or pay to sim unlock it? that's the dilemma XD

check my sign if you like
[XPERIA X10 General] TidusWulf:
it's definitely not important enough to want to pay for it. :P

though I am jealous that you have a white X10 :D
[XPERIA X10 General] alankstiyo:
xD i din't pay for it, htccode unlocked it for free xD

lol here's more common to see white x10s and also looked better than the black one xD
[XPERIA X10 General] Deleted member 3665957:
@tiduswulf:

you have two options:

1. request code from network operator ( kinda impossible )

2. request code from ones, who has access to network operator database (costly)

3. use 3rd-party service, who using semc secs to generate signature ( costly )

Flashing on a full charge and battery reset process?
[Fascinate General] ctran408:

Flashing on a full charge and battery reset process?

Jenisiz - when u mention flashing on a full charge and battery reset process? where can I find the battery reset process? tried looking around after your post and can't seem to find anything about how to reset the battery.

Im very noobish at all this so if u could send me a link or steps on how to reset battery that would be GREAT :)

Yes I have done the CWR wiping and such. I am doing the same things I did before on DL30 but now battery isn't even lasting a day....in fact sometimes I have to put it on the charger now after only 8 hours. Mind you...I am not really doing anything that intensive. Maybe a few calls, some texting...some browsing and that's it. On DL30 I could easily go all day and still have 3/4 charge...now it's draining horribly even after wiping the stats.
[Fascinate General] Thrillhouse847:
Go into CWR and select the advanced option and then wipe battery stats. That could help. Also, letting your battery completely drain and then fully charging before wiping the stats could help also.
[Fascinate General] Tkun:
If you're using theme, remove it by flashing a new ROM. I've heard that helps with battery life, so I'm trying it out myself to see if that's really the case.
[Fascinate General] Kaze105:
Try using a program called juicedefender from market. I found it helps my battery.
[Fascinate General] Shakes The AssClown:
No themes being used...just the stock eb01.
[Fascinate General] Domush:
There are some reports of the GPS never really turning off using eb01. If the Gps is enabled in the drop down, disable it and report back after your next charge cycle. Obviously you can enable it when you need it, but remember to disable it after you finish.

This is possibly a kernel bug, so it may not be fixed until the next update.

i am so completely frustrated right now!!! ive been looking for this xml for hours.

Basically, i've designed my own rosie buttons, pressed and rest, and i've made sure everything lines up with the image, everything on that end is perfect, but when i flash it on my phone, they're all offset funny, and instead of butting right up against eachother, theres space that i dont want, and it just plain looks like crap.

I have searched and searched for an xml file relating to the layout of the rosie, and cant find it, can anyone please help me solve this problem, then i'll be glad to share my rosie with the world as soon as its finished
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VinceOB:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PigProtist:
So I'm really new to custom ROMs and recoveries, and I have a few questions. I already flashed ClockworkMod, but if I want to get rid of it, is deleting the update.zip all I have to do? And if I were to make a backup and then flash a custom ROM, but decided to go back to my recovery, it would be exactly like it was before flashing the custom ROM, correct? I think that's about it, thanks for taking the time to read and answer.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jzun223:
First flash the correct kernel (2.1 or 2.2 ) of the one used for your backup. Then restore. Then delete update.zip

After that it will be how you had it
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oka1:
I think in this case doing you would also need to reset the phone and do a cache wipe as well then reboot and it would see as stock
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PigProtist:
So how would I get my hands on the stock kernel and flash it?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jzun223:
On the Vibrant Bible thread. Scroll down to Kernals.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jzun223:
Yeah that wouldn't hurt.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PigProtist:
So I haven't had access to a computer the past few days, but how would I flash the stock kernel from the Bible thread? Is it just in an update.zip?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] da_dragon2k3:
From your phones browser download the kernel. Once in recovery locate the kernal on your INTERNAL sd card and flash it like you would a rom. Hope that helps

Quoted directly from HTC press release:

"Ever had a moment when you couldn’t locate your phone, or even left a mobile phone somewhere? HTCSense.com gives users peace of mind should this ever occur. You can easily locate a missing phone by triggering the handset to ring loudly, even if it is set to silent, or to flag its location on a map. If the phone’s been lost or stolen, users can remotely lock the phone, forward calls and texts to another phone, send a message to the phone to arrange its return or even remotely wipe all personal data from it."
[HTC Inspire 4G] legend221:
This Xora scheme and not offering Unlimited Data is whats killing the company, when will they wake up and realize this? :confused:

Iphone isnt the end of the world but its the other 'In' device other than Android phones of course so why not bring back at least unlimited data to prevent people from jumping ship to another carrier?

Its funny, a few days ago I threatened to cancel and they said they couldn't give it to me because I never had it in the first place and to contact corporate.

Why iPhone users are granted exclusivity to that feature is phonecist as well, hahaha. Yeah I know I made up a word.

You can also call ATT Premier Services and speak with them directly.

Got my Inspire for 49.99 because I *****ed about " not beign able to order online " due to some glitch with there website.

Been a customer with ATT / Cingular for 8 years now. They may seem like they don't care but trust me, if the first person you talk to gives you ****, just request to speak with a manager and have them pull some strings.

49.99 with no activation fee.. great deal

Hi!

Does anybody know a trick on Froyo to set a port number for VPN servers?

My VPN connection requires port 443, but if I set the VPN server address with ":443" at the end, when I try to connect to it, I have "ATTENTION: server name cannot be resolved"

It looks like it only like VPN server addresses without any port i.e. it used port 80 by default. I'm really surprised it cannot be added.

I tried L2TP, PPTP and L2TP/IPSec. Same issue.

FYI: I can connect without problem to other VPN servers that use port 80.

thanks a lot for your comments.

Hi,

Tada! I've found out how to force the use of a port number in L2TP and PPTP VPN configurations:

after you've input the server's IP address do not use ":" but just a

space character

before imputing the port number

e.g. 10.245.123.456 443

It also works with iOS VPN config, and of course any kind of ports which are supported by your VPN service provider's servers (443, 8000, 1194, 8292...).

Enjoy!
