[Atrix 4G General] mthguy:
I am hoping we get alot of captivate devs to switch. I know there is a good chance that the bootloader will be encrypted, and that might keep the ROM chefs away, but I really hope we find away around it. i am going to be submitting as much of my capabilities to the effort, but I am new to android. I have done a small amount of program development on iOS with jailbreaks. so hopefully I can help.

Also, as I have said before, Devs are the lifeblood of these phones, and I am willing to put my money out there as a substitute for my experience. I am willing to help any motivated devs by donating $20-$40. Hopefully we can get a rich community surrounding the phone. that way when i am still using it 18 months down the road, I will still be happy with it.
[Atrix 4G General] nory82688:
I didn't get that email at all and I preordered on Sunday morning when the preorder option first popped up. I did get my confirmation email right after preordering and another email today ( 17th) , but not the one you have. Am I still going to get my atrix on the 22nd? Or did something get messed up?
[Atrix 4G General] beazie0885:
What email did you get today if not the one posted above?
[Atrix 4G General] arcticreaver:
i called att and they said that everyone that pre-ordered the phone will get it on monday the 21st. so 4 days from now.

they said the phone will be available in stores on 22nd.
[Atrix 4G General] n0kia916:
I freaking hope so...it's my birthday! lol
[Atrix 4G General] jsuresh:
I just received shipped email and it is showing delivery by 3pm on 2/21.
[Atrix 4G General] CC Lemon:
When I did the checkout on the AT&T site it told me it's scheduled to be delivered on or before March 6th... if people are getting them as early as the 21 or 22 I sure as hell hope mine arrives around that time as well.
[Atrix 4G General] jsuresh:
tracking attached.....
[Atrix 4G General] True2TheGame:
does anyone know if the package will require signature? i may have to leave work early to be sure i'm home for this bad boy if that's the case.
[Atrix 4G General] CC Lemon:
Usually says if the signature is required or not for the tracking information, so it looks like no signature required.
[Atrix 4G General] s1ickwi11y:
I'd be seriously pissed if FedEx left it on the porch without signature and it got stolen after waiting for this phone. Good thing it's a holiday and I'm working from home all day! :cool:
[Atrix 4G General] G-Man.:
I opted to have mine shipped to the att store - just incase i wouldnt be home when FedEx showed up. This way i dont have to worry about it being left on the front step and sitting there :)
[Atrix 4G General] s1ickwi11y:
You know, I was looking for that option and didn't see anything about it. Where was this option during online pre-ordering to have it shipped to a specific store? Maybe next time I pre-order I'll be able to do this.
[Atrix 4G General] Donatron:
I didn't see it either. But most likely, you could simply call after placing the order, and have the CSR make the change for you.
[Atrix 4G General] drock212:
I preodered mine on 2/14/11 (ATT stupid site wasnt not working if you have a company discount applied and the department that helps with that was closed on sunday) and I got my FedEx tracking number on 2/17/11 with expected delivery date of 2/21/11
[Atrix 4G General] The Bishop:
I did the same thing. It was great, because the stooge that put my order in 'accidently' ordered me the $500 dock instead of the phone. I've been raising holy hell since I found out on Friday -- curious if I'll get one on Monday as well. Reps kill me sometimes.
[Atrix 4G General] James62370:
FM Radio?

Can anyone who actually received they Atrix confirm whether or not there is a FM Radio app on this device? Some specs show FM Radio with RDS, however, AT&T does not have this advertised.

I know I can always stream radio frequencies, but stations I enjoy most do not allow streaming.

Thanks!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FaithCry:
sorry noob question, but when you have an apk on the computer, what folder do you put it in so that you can push it to your phone via ADB?

...and where do the files go when you 'pull' them from your phone? ie what directory?

thank you!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bronk93:
.apk you can install like any other app so u don't need to push it. As far as pulling I'm not sure I use root explorer to move files instead of adb

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
You can just put them wherever you want and specify the full path in your adb command, both ways...

For example, I recently pulled a file from my phone to push to another:

adb pull /data/app/com.neevo.mobiledefense-1.apk /Users/dave/Dropbox/Android\ Apps
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peeturr:
If you're using windows command prompt you could just drag the file into the terminal I believe and it will autopopulate the directory. Correct me if I'm wrong.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
That should work on Windows, and on Macs as well. Probably would work in a Linux GUI environment as well.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
easiest way is to install from Dropbox

easiest way is to use DROP BOX

Then drag any APK you want to install into the Drop Box

and in your phone just install the app or game from you Drop Box

the best thing is you get a FREE 2GB, when you sign up
[Nook Color General] buffnutz1:
I flashed a froyo 1100 kernel. Now the nc starts gets to the lockscreen then either restarts or lets me unlock and powers off. I made a cwm backup right before but it doesnt give enough time to get to cwm.

am I screwed?
[Nook Color General] woot1524:
You need to make a bootable CWM sd card with the stock kernel on it (available in the same thread you got the OC kernel from) and flash it. Perhaps your nook is one of the few that just can't handle the 1.1ghz OC. Or, If you're really gun-ho about overclocking it, I would try redownloading and reflashing the OC kernel. It may have been either a bad download or flash.
[Nook Color General] buffnutz1:
Ok, found out holding the N and power allowed me to restore my backup. Then found another kernel that actually worked. Now if i could only find the bes browser, this thing would be perfect.

[HTC Inspire 4G] rockky:
Been comparing Inspire with my rooted Evo all day.

Have been really surprised that Evo has consistantly downloaded sites significantly faster than the Inspire!....and I'm not talking Sprints Wimax network...we're talking Evdoh'...one of the reasons I'm looking to dump Sprint!

Yeah, I know 4G isn't turned on yet?...but when I was with Att before with IPhone and Nexus1, I had speeds faster than this. When I say speeds I don't mean the speedtest. I mean real world tests like downloading Engadget etc.

Been a surprising day!

Edit: one thing I should point out is that I don't mean total download time...in that case Evo wins but not that significantly.

I mean latency? , I think...meaning the readable portion of a site appears fast on Evo, but quite the lag on Inspire.

A 145mg file downloaded about 30-40% faster on the Evo.
[HTC Inspire 4G] gtg465x:
Seems slower than the iPhone because AT&T turns off HSUPA (fast uploads, lower latency... helps sites load quicker) on all of its Android phones. We will have plenty of ROMs and modems that have HSUPA enabled. In fact, the Euro unbranded ROM in the dev section already has it I think.
[HTC Inspire 4G] rockky:
Interesting....

I dont get it. 4G is the marketing buzzword right now...what do they think, tag it 4G, dumb it down...most of the sheep either will be bamboozled by the big phone or just put up with it?
[HTC Inspire 4G] aNdroidnut:
Hints at all the sheep that say they have the iphone 4g.......they can feed the sheep whatever they want because they know no different
[HTC Inspire 4G] Aridon:
I'm getting 3.5 down and 1.6 up here. Use the telus radio. On sprint I was lucky to see 600 down usually it was around 200.

Latency on at&t is usually sub 200 as well.
[HTC Inspire 4G] rockky:
Word!

Well, I'd decided I didn't need dual core, loved my Evo , but hated Evdo...and Wimax is really spotty. ATT speeds had been so much better than Evdo...

SO, I'd decided the Inspire would be perfect. Has decidedly NOT been perfect..at least today.
[HTC Inspire 4G] rwon:
I have mine rooted, but don't have the telus radio yet. Looks like i need to do that tonight.
[HTC Inspire 4G] r34p3rex:
See sig :p

Make sure you try out the attn1's Inspired ROM. It enables HSUPA which makes a difference in download as well as upload.
[HTC Inspire 4G] rwon:
I've got the rom, just haven't done the radio. I'm on the old htc radio from oct 2010.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nothing0:
Hello All

I purchased a phone from a friend of a friend so I don't have all the history of the phone. It looks like they attempted to root it and failed.

I only got it to boot op fully one time. (and I can't get it to boot up fully again) It goes to the htc incredible logo and starts over.) So here's what I know. I didn't see a superuser apk the one time I got it to boot. It has the radio that ends in 07.28. It has s-on. It has a recovery but not one that I'm used to (like on ogdroid)

Its says android system recovery <3e>

reboot

apply update.zip

wipe/factory

wipe cache partition

and at the bottom

E: Can't open /cache/recovery/command

I've tried the unroot method to try to get it going, but no luck. I'm stuck. Any thoughts? Thanks for any help.

Basically, download this file

http://www.fourty.net/~berzerker/stockstuff/PB31IMG_3.26.605.1_RUU.zip

Rename it to PB31IMG.zip, put it on the root of your SD card, boot the phone into the bootloader (hold vol + & pwr when turning on) and let it update. It should return it to a completely stock 2.2 with no root. From there you can go root it or do whatever you would like.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nothing0:
Ok I tried that. The update goes through successfully but I'm still stuck in the loop.

Is there a way to root or get s-off with out booting the phone? (I'm using a mac)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h0x90:
this happened to me recently - I reloaded RUU - hard reset - removed sd - left battery out for a while - used my wifes battery - power plugged in - Wiped everything possible in cwr (before ruu)

The phone is completely stock and wont stay on for more than 5 seconds if it even gets to the lock screen at all. In the end I had to put s-on and request a replacement :(

one thing I did notice though (hope this helps) I left my battery out of the phone overnight and in the morning without power connected it did boot all the way and I popped on to the market and used the browser for about 15 minutes - then fell back in to a boot loop and I wasn't able to reproduce that working state again.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doopah:
Incredible

Try looking for a Ruu to return it stock,

make sure you wipe all.

Sometimes it helps to be patient and watch out for heat issues.

Not sure if this is related but My Hd2 on 2.3 and Mytouch 4g on 2.3 would boot loop when it got a little warm Remove the batter and let it sit for 10 minutes.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nothing0:
Ok

It's back to stock. I still have the same issue. It is the same problem that h0x90 had. This phone isn't activated and I'm not sure if it has a warranty or not. I would rather try to fix it if I can. Can I root it with adb or otherwise in its current state? I wonder if a rom would fix the problem. It seems to be software and not hardware, correct?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h0x90:
Before I was desperate enough to wipe everything (ruu) I loaded several different roms and loaded my backups - so in my case it was a hardware issue.

Verizon told me they cover the phone for 12 months from purchase date - and they're overnighting a refurb to me for free which is nice. Maybe if nothing else you can get a hold of the previous owner and attempt to get a replacement.

Best of luck though either way!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] najaboy:
As the Incredible hasn't been on the market for a year yet, it's assuredly still within the warranty period.. As for trying to fix it yourself, I can all but guarantee that you cannot since what you're experiencing seems to be a relatively common hardware failure.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nothing0:
I finally gave up. I did find out that PCD at 1.800.229.1235 does warranty work for HTC. Maybe that information will help others. Thanks to all that helped.
[G Tablet General] ajkid93:
I am thinking that it would be good for both landscape and portrait mode to have the status bar at the bottom of the screen, so you don't have to always have your hand near the top of the tablet to go to your home screen or back a page. The way viewonic made the soft touch buttons on the top right corner when in landscape mode is annoying, also when your in portrait they are at the top of the tablet instead of at the bottom. Has anyone attempted this already? If it hasn't, I think one of the devs should move it to the bottom of the screen on their rom.
[Droid X General] brandon2x:
Does anyone know if the launcher or "dock" is customizable in the Liberty Rom? I'm getting kinda tired of Launcherpro as I've been using it for 6 months now... The widgets don't seem to function like they use to for some reason, not updating like they should be, etc. I'm trying to find out if I can change the shortcuts and icons on the dock or add screens, since there are only 5... Any help would be great. Thanks.
[Droid X General] hullie10:
Do you mean lack of updates with launcherpro? That is because fede(dev) is doing a complete rewrite of launcherpro so that's why there hasn't been alot of updates.. if you're tired of launcherpro why don't you change some icons around and such? i haven't really tried any other launcher.. but I've read that launcherpro is one of the few that allows customizing every aspect of it...hope i don't sound like a dbag if you already know all this
[Droid X General] brandon2x:
Yeah, I knew all that, no big deal. lol. funny thing is, maybe i'm trying to be a little more simple. I think I've used every icon, color, option possible for LP+ and I'm just a little tired of it. GO Launcher is basically the same thing just more screens. Don't like ADW. that leaves the basic launcher. Like I said, the widgets just don't seem to be acting right on LP lately. Not updating properly even when I try to do it manually. So trying to customize the stock Liberty launcher/dock is my last option right now. Maybe if fede's rewrite is updated alot, I'll go back to it.
[Droid X General] dwray:
I've tried the other major players like Adw and GoLauncher, but I always end up coming back to LP mainly for the widgets. IMO, they are the best available on the market for my needs, especially the facebook and calendar widgets. Aside from that, LP seems to be the fastest because Fede kept everything simple and clean looking instead of loading it up with hidden dock bars and window transitions (I know, he added some with the last update). If you're really looking to spice it up some, check out Dreamlyfe for some nice docks and icon sets.
[Droid X General] brandon2x:
where do i find this dreamlyfe??? doesn't show up in market and cant find an apk online anywhere..??
[Droid X General] brandon2x:
nevermind. found it at androidforums... thanks. getting ready to download now. looks sweet. kinda what I was looking for to "spice" it up as you say!

[EVO 4G General] skillzo1:
Been having horrable data speeds on 3g the past 3-4 months. And ive been calling and complaining everytime i have problems and making note of when i called sprint and what was done to the account. I have tried everything they asked including going to the store and getting a refurbed evo. But at the store when i got the refub i dled speedtest and got the same results...so i told them to keep it and give me my original phone back.

Point of this post is to DEFINATLY call and complain...dont let it go and look it over. Take notes on what they said and did to your account and spit it back at them the next time you call. They wanna charge me an etf for something that is not my fault since i want to cancel. I wont accept that...this is there problem...i shouldnt pay for full service if i aint getting it or be punished for cancelling when it is a problem on there end. Here is notes from todays convo with them as an example for others that should do the same. It may be the only way for them to fix there service or the only way they look at you and be like...hes to much of a pain in the ass to keep him so let him go. I will continue to call and complain until it is hopefully fixed or worst case they cancell my contract...todays notes.

Feb 15 spoke to 3 sprint reps and 1 supervisor in the cancellation dept..had my bill adusted to 101.09 dollars for poor service the past 3-4 months. So far total credits issued for poor data the past 4 months is $16 for invisable screen protecter..$20 for data booster at home...$30 for a credit issued for january for poor data speeds and $36 today for february's bill of poor data speeds. Total of $102.00
[EVO 4G General] Samzebian:
I've also noticed slower speeds for some time now, along with my home comcast internet. too many people online these days? (my internet used to be blaazzzing fast for 9 years!)
[EVO 4G General] sitlet:
This has happened to me since November. I got my evo on launch day, and was getting great speeds, about 1500kbps down consistently. One day in November, my 3g crapped out. Since then, sprint has given me 6 phones, 3 refurbs and 3 brand new ones. All have the same problem. This leads me to believe its a network problem, I mean how could 7 phones have the same exact problem. But, my friend has an evo, and side by side his is normal, while I get less than 70kbps. And the evo's in the sprint store are fine as well, along with all the other phone models.

I have spent HOURS and HOURS on the phone trying to get this taken care of. I'm not trying to get anything from sprint, I just want my 3g to work. I love the evo, and I love sprint's coverage in my area.

They have given me 6 phones, and I haven't paid my bill in 3 months, since they keep giving me credits since they cant figure out the problem. I really could care less, I just want my 3g to work correctly.

So no, it really DOESN'T pay to complain. I have spent hours of my life complaining about this, and have gotten nowhere.
[EVO 4G General] tx_dbs_tx:
Same thing here. My 3G data speeds crapped out last November also. Sprint has no idea what the problem could be. I think everybody who is experiencing slower than normal data should raise serious hell with Sprint every single day. This is NOT a coincidence. I suspect something fishy is going on and I'm not going to pay these premium unlimited data fees for terrible 3G data speeds! I'm going to demand Sprint to credit my account 50% every month until they turn 3G back on like it used to be. If not I want out of my contract. Either way I can easily sell my two EVO's on Craigslist to cover the etf's.

I can't watch Sprint TV, YouTube, or stream any online video content. Web browsing is VERY slow. My data speeds have gone from 1.6mbps to .30kbps since last November and now I never get speed results faster than .76kbps on a good day. It seems like Sprint flipped a switch one day out of the blue and data speeds went to **** ever since.
[EVO 4G General] heygrl:
What happened was more people got on the data network and Sprint hasn't invested in capacity like Verizon, T-Mobile and AT&T has to support more 3G data traffic.

[EVO 4G General] tmwilsoniv:
The Proxy changes do indeed help. Be sure to give them a try. That being said. my 3G and 4G data speeds are roughly half of what they were four months ago (Baltimore market). The only thing that has not changed is my RSSI or signal strength which comes in at -62.00 dBm every day, all day. The Rx signal to noise ratio has been reading "Not ready" for the past couple of months. What happened to it? How do I calculate CINR without this part of the equation?
[EVO 4G General] DarkManX4lf:
I've complained numerous times about my poor signal coverage and pour 3g and ay first they gave me a airvana airave unit which really doesn't work to well with the evo..... but at least they did something....
[EVO 4G General] tmwilsoniv:
I have an Airwave on the way. Sprint has also credited a month's bill yet again. Let's hope Sprint/Clear can get their collective acts together soon.
[EVO 4G General] heygrl:
For slow 3G speed, an Airvana is not the answer for the simple fact that it hooks into your existing broadband connection.. you could just get a WiFi router.
[EVO 4G General] tmwilsoniv:
That's what I told them. They said it was an "Airwave 2.0" and acts like a repeater of the 3G signal. Either way, it is of no cost to me. It does show a willingness of Sprint to work with me, even if the proposed solution is no solution.
[EVO 4G General] itsallsubliminal:
It's obvious the more people who start using smartphones will start to slow down the service, but its the same with Comcast internet as much as I hate it. The companies all get u with the little filler words "up to". The speeds are not and never will be garunteed, at least not in the near future. Let's just hope these clowns actually give us TRUE 4g speeds in the next few years(70-100Mbps) as the technology grows.
[EVO 4G General] aimbdd:
Not 100% true. My company says up to as well, but its only allowed to be 5-10 percent off that speed, otherwise they send someone out.
