Its on Monday nights at 7 (i think) on NBC. There thinking about cancelling it because there's not enough people watching it. I know me making this thread will not change anything but its the most i can do. The show is very interesting and has a lot of potential and i would hate to see it not come on one day. I would be pissed if that happend and would probably turn into my little friend down there in my sig. So if you want to keep on living the way you are now i suggest you watch it this Monday. :D

Pass the word on... Tell your mother, Your brother, everyone you know.

[Atrix 4G General] phobos512:
What is the deal Motorola you're putting out an update for the Xoom and totally silent on the issues MANY people are having with the Atrix?!

http://m.engadget.com/default/artic...s-required-enhan/&category=classic&postPage=1
[Atrix 4G General] GuyIncognito721:
We have Flash, Xoom doesn't.
[Atrix 4G General] sdlopez83:
I was thinking the same exact thing. This is rediculous. Says alot about the priority of this phone.
[Atrix 4G General] nucentury08:
Yup ha
[Atrix 4G General] neer2005:
You guys have to understand that the Xoom is being run by Google since it's a honeycomb flagship unlike the Atrix which isn't a google flagship. I'm sure we will see an update soon.
[Atrix 4G General] phobos512:
While that is true, it's also true that there is a SIGNIFICANT outcry within the Atrix user community - look at the posts on Motorola's forum - thousands of posts about the issues with the Atrix. The streaming issues, slow speeds on AT&T's network and over Wi-Fi, the locked and signed bootloader, etc. The user/developer community has probably already mitigated the small issues with the Xoom - after all, they are ALLOWED to.
[Atrix 4G General] neer2005:
True, Motorola does have to give the Atrix attention.
[Atrix 4G General] waltah!:
The Xoom update is to prepare it for Flash. The Atrix already has Flash. What kind of updates were you expecting a couple of weeks after release?
[Atrix 4G General] phobos512:
All the crap that's broken that I talked about above maybe? The EVO that I have was updated within the first month it was out. It's not unheard of.
[Atrix 4G General] plmiller0905:
Good point made
[Atrix 4G General] SS2006:
how is motorola responisible for updating a device that at and t is 'breaking' with its caps and restrictions on upload speed..

im not sure what fix moto is supposed to be pushing out :S besides an update that unlocks the bootloader..ya thats gnna happen

i have no streaming/video playback issues, can u elaborate (if ur gonna bring up the tegra 1080p issue, again how is moto gnna fix a hardware shortcoming on tegras part with an OTA?)
[Atrix 4G General] CC Lemon:
I might be wrong, and definitely can't say how much it would actually help them, but this might be a move as a result of the recent ipad announcement. That might be viewed as a more imminent competition than other phones would be to the atrix.
[Atrix 4G General] waltah!:
I saw things above like signed/locked bootloader......they aren't going to "fix" that for you and I'm pretty sure you probably knew about that when you bought it.

I have zero streaming issues (including flash), great wifi speeds and very good data performance on the network(always 2.5-4mbps). Personally, I'm not looking for updates like that. Maybe you should exchange yours if you're having these issues.
[Atrix 4G General] jkrohn:
Moto can't push an OTA without going through AT&T anyway. Going to need a radio update to get HSUPA.

That being said, this update for the XOOM is Moto trying to get something it advertised as a feature (flash) finally working. Different situation from the Atrix.
[Atrix 4G General] lsxrx7:
why do i not have any significant issue with the atrix >?
[Atrix 4G General] dLo GSR:
I don't have these problems.
[Atrix 4G General] mister_al:
Don't forget there's likely different teams working on different things for each Xoom and Atrix. Each will have its own release target. Maybe the Atrix items haven't passed testing yet.
[Atrix 4G General] plasticglock:
Are you testing those down speeds with the speedtest.net app from the market? Because that is the one I am using and I always get less than that, and it's inconsistent too.
[Atrix 4G General] madbrenner:
What Motorola really needs to fix is the problems with VoIP apps, like Skype.

Anyway thanks to everyone for there help. Also an op may want to move this to the Android section since this is for any device not just evo.

Thanks,

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koshum1:
just download via torrent google search for the system roms you want
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neodorian:
Because it is illegal to redistribute commercial software like video game ROMs without a license. That kind of software was essentially just a way to find warez.

Not making a judgment but it makes sense that Google wouldn't want warez in their official app market. ROMs for pretty much every console are easy to find through whatever channels you usually use to find warez and the like.
[Xoom General] Dr.Preston:
The problem is coming from the lack of support for surround sound audio streams. When you encode your videos for your xoom, make sure you set the audio to stereo.
[Xoom General] Blades:
Yes.. but what about pass thru over hdmi. Someone has gotta try that one out. I've been meaning to test out 2 channel ac3. Its possible ac3 is a no-go overall
[Xoom General] brosenz:
If I decide to buy the XOOM at Costco, what's the Return Policy ?, the same as any other product, 90 days ?, or it will be like a Verizon return policy, 15 days ?, thanks
[Xoom General] Low023:
It's 14 days at Costco.
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
That is definitely incorrect. There is a 90 day return policy, same as if you bought a computer from Costco.

14 days refers to the amount of time you have to cancel your contract with Verizon.
[Xoom General] blozout:
Yes, definitely 90 days. 14 days for Verizon contract canellation as stated above.
[Xoom General] bwcorvus:
This is correct. If you sign a 2 year contract you have 14 days to cancel it. You have 90 days to return any electric product to costco and get a full refund. If any person at a kiosk tells you different just ask for the store manager.
[Xoom General] js042507:
Yes its 90 days, but costco makes you pay the activation fee and sign up for one month of service. At least they did when I was going to buy it on the 28th. It is also 20 bucks cheaper at costco but you'll end up paying more with the fees. I even told the "smart" reps there that verizon wasnt requiring the activation anymore and stuff so they called somebody and found out this was true but couldn't sell it to me without the activation due to costcos policy or something? So I just went to best buy and got it. 14 days with them though :-)

Sent from the most 'Epic' phone in the world! ...Using XDA Premium app :-)
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
Its because Costco gets a cut for selling the Xoom with a data plan.

If you really want the 90 day return policy, just go in there to buy the Xoom, sign up for the plan and then walk out the door and call Verizon and cancel. You'll get the activation fee dropped.
[Xoom General] Low023:
I'm just going by what they told me. They said it had a 14 day return policy for mine when I got it. He said they will exchange for a different one if it has any defects up to 90 days though.

I guess he may have been saying that to avoid a return or something... meh.
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
I've independently confirmed with 2 Costcos its a 90 return policy on the hardware.
[Xoom General] yolan:
In Store Verizon Cancellation

The Costco sales guys also told me 90 days for full refund or price match (if the price drops). As for canceling the Verizon plan, when I called to do it over the phone they wouldn't let me cancel it. They said they couldn't tell if I bought my Xoom for the full price or on contract so I would have to go in to the Costco kiosk to shut down my Verizon plan.
​
[Xoom General] RickyMaxX:
This varies from one Costco store to the next. I live in South Florida and most stores have a 90-day return policy for the XOOM. However, there is one store in particular in my area that only honors a 30-day policy for the XOOM. This return policy is set by the manager of the mobile device Kiosk. This is why you may have a store here or there that deviate from the standard 90-day policy. Bottom line, call the store or go into the store from which you wish to buy your Xoom and ask the people at the kiosk.

I hope this clears up the confusion.
[Xoom General] droidftw:
i bought my xoom at costco

the return policy is if you buy it on contract the policy is 14 days, if you buy it off contract its 90 days
[Xoom General] bwcorvus:
Well the guy can say this, it will not hold up. As a costco employee i will tell you this. Corporate sets all are policies. Mangers only have the power to make them better (in the name of member service) they are NOT ALLOWED to make them worst. All you have to do is ask to talk to the store manager if someone tells you other wise.
[Xoom General] RickyMaxX:
Well that's good info. I talked with the manager of the mobile kiosk at this particular Kiosk and he said that it is a 30-day policy if you buy it off contract. So it's good to know this can be challenged. And yes, others in the area are selling it with a 90-day return policy off contract.
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
Not true. As stated before you have 14 days to cancel the contract and 90 days to return the hardware. Of course unless you get a 2 year contract and a $200 subsidy, then yes it will be 14 days to pay the difference of $200 when you cancel your contract.
[Xoom General] rbruno66:
Costco will take anything back. It says 90 days right on my receipt. They also give you a rebate for the activation fee, or at least they gave me one.
[Xoom General] knut150:
That’s correct the return policy is 90 days. As for the mail in rebate of the activation fee you will get it after 90 days.
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
should be noted based on my experience talking to them that you only get back the $35 activation fee from Costco if you PAY for 3 months of service.

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] vishalmullur:
It happened with me too. You do this-go to androinani (might be spelled wrong) page on xda developers, its in motorola milestone android development and then download open recovery from there. Then connect phone to your pc and first extract files from the .zip you just downloaded and then put them in your sdcard. Then boot into normal recovery and press apply update.zip.

See if this works. I had the same problem but now I don't have it.

Note that you download open recovery from the website given on the androidaini page only and then try.

If you have any further problems PM me.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G2_Gordon_G1:
Root / Hack virgin here.

Next month I'll be travelling all over Australia for 2-3 weeks and I would like to take a phone with me to use a Telstra SIM card with.

I have a new G2 and and OLD G1, both Un-rooted and T-Mobile SIM locked.

I know that there have been many issues with using the standard T-Mobile Unlock code for the G2. I'm a little nervous about bricking my phone using the regular unlock code method. I'm also a little nervous about rooting and using GFree on my new G2, because I've never messed with code or command line at all.

So my question is, is it too risky to try to use the regular T-Mobile unlock method on my G2? Should I just unlock and take my old G1? Or...should I bite the bullet and try Gfree and root?

Thanks for helping a noob.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chinly43:
I can certainly understand being nervous about bricking if you don't have much experience - before acquiring a free G1 last summer, the only programming/command line experience I had was (1) in intro CS in college (hooray Java!) and (2) making a sweet Tic-Tac-Toe game for my graphing calculator in eighth grade. I was, then, pleasantly surprised with how easy it was to pick up some basic adb/fastboot commands for my G1, and now my G2.

The gfree method can sound a little intense, but if you can meticulously follow directions it's really not all that difficult to do. The wiki page (http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision) has thorough, complete instructions for the process, including a set of prerequisites.

I've had a lot of luck with T-Mobile in the past giving out unlock codes when I'm headed out of the country, but at this point I've been a customer of theirs for 11 consecutive years, so YMMV. Given the simplicity of gfree and its ability to sim-unlock the phone without any extra trouble, I would think that would be the best way to go.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Athrun88:
Hey,

Always nice to see new people come in and not be afraid to ask questions. I was sitting in your situation (not the travelling part) just afew days ago on rooting my Desire Z (your G2).

Prior to this, I had never used ADB and usually resorted to "one click root" solutions. With the case with the DZ/G2, there are one click root options, but they do not SIM-Unlock your phone.

There is a guide in my sig to get SIM-Unlock/PermRoot/S-OFF using the Rage/Gfree method. Took me a good 2 hours of sitting there and reading then re-reading the wiki and thread before I actually accomplished it. Just needs some patience.

I would suggest reading through the thread and corresponding wiki and see what you can understand then ask more questions. If you think it's over your capabilities, that is fine, I think there are simpler solutions for the G1 since it's been out longer. The important thing is that you at least tried it.

Have fun!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raitchison:
I would say go for the gfree unlock/root method, it's easier and faster than getting the SIM-unlock code from T-Mobile.

Only tricky part is getting ADB working, once that's done it's a straightforward process.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G2_Gordon_G1:
Thanks for the answers all.

I think I'm gonna go for it. Any tips, aside from whats on the wiki walkthrough?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheNewGuy:
It is federal law that T-mobile has to give you the unlock code if you ask for it. Just call them and they will email it to you. You do need a tmobile account to run the request under.... I used my friends who had a type of a pay as you go account I'm not even a tmobile cust.

They emailed it to me in less than 24 hours. You either own the phone all ready or signed a contract so you will have to pay for it whether you keep your service or not... they can't make you keep the phone on tmobile.. its yours now.. you can't give it back and get out of the contract could you?

Its the law.

But gfree is the way to go and you will want to do it sooner or later.... just go for it.....lol

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdm4u:
upgrading your plan doesnt do anything. It's just a way to merge all plans under the "4G data plans". You WONT get 4G speeds for switching. The 4G speed comes from the different radio in the Galaxy S 4G that the vibrant doesnt have. Its a hardware thing, not software. /thread.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RCinFLA:
No, it is different modem hardware. Vib 3G is Infineon cellular modem. Vib 4G is ST-Ericson modem.

You don't need to do anything to your data plan, just get a Vib 4G phone.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joy2DaWurld:
Unfortunately you cannot get 4G speeds on the Vibrant...even if you choose the "Android 4G plan" from T-Mobile. It is only a label and makes no difference within the phone itself. The Vibrant 4G has a newer radio that can work with true 4G, but sadly the highest we can go is 3.5G lol
