[Q] Should i buy the Atrix? - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi guys first I want to apologize for my terrible English
and second:
since i am not a developer and i am afraid to mess around with roms and stuff ,so locked bootloader is not something that should interrupt me but i looked alot lately at the forum and it is look like no one is happy with the Atrix...
over heat battery,finger scaner placed badly,the screen isnt smooth as they expected,the music stop in the middle,no software for the fm radio,No WiFi signal,or no signal at all and more...in shortly a huge motorola software Failure
so my question is should i buy it?
because as i said i dont want to deal with the software so much and beside that when you get a new phone you dont want to start with solving software issues
my current phone is samsung 514 or r220 so it will be a huge jump for me but i dont mind to jump so hight =D

Go to a store and try one, its the only way to know for sure. Its worked perfectly for me. Everyone who's seen my phone has commented on how beautiful the screen is. Even galaxy S owners.
I've had no issues whatsoever.

so i guess it is just a matter of luck?
hmm and if i am going to buy it is only on the internet because we dont have it over here...no Wifi/regular signal problems?

The store demo model did have an issue with losing its network connection when I turned on/off its wifi radio, but my device has not and I've been fooling around with it pretty much constantly.

Most of the store demo models weren't activate properly, unfortunately. The usual thing is that an older phone comes down and the new model goes up. They just swap the sim and the hspa+ data plan may not be provisioned properly.
I've had absolutely zero issues with my Atrix. My battery life is great, reception is solid and it's silly fast. Once Tegra 2 specific games and apps become readily available it's going to be that much better.
Play Dungeon Defenders on it and it's insane.

so evry thing is ok with your atrix too?
so why all the hate for him...do you know if a software update that will make the fm radio work will come soon?

Mine has been perfect. I think people get excited and sometimes expect too much. No phone is perfect all of the time, but the Atrix has been for me.

has anyone seen a video or got any info about the S-II gps? is it same chit as galaxy s I gps? or did they do anything about the hardware bug?
no

If you get your hands on one...
..would you mind posting an indepth analysis of the gps (navigation etc while driving in cities-country without agps support) in sgs2? Rest of the flaws in sgs were all fixed by xda and it was a brilliant phone. It saddens me to see people with prototypes fixating on lag etc which is easily fixable. If there is confirmation of working gps on this it will be well worth waiting even until summer. Almost tempted to pull the trigger for nexus s as soon as it lands with att friendly 3g as the ip is suffocating me
have you done any reaading.. agps does nothing for driving around.. it is only used to get an initial fix quicker.

Alright, my point is about general gps use. Lets forget agps and if someone can please confirm a working gps in sgs2 it will be the best phone ever.
Wish it has a powerful GPS chip and does not ruin the chip with athena design.
wait about a month and see some video reviews on the internet thats all you can do now
if sgs2 has a good gps system in it, im ready to sell my sgs for sgs2
Sources tell me that it uses miniature homing pigeons to calculate latitude and longitude. Lock on is a brisk 3 days. Still better than original galaxy s.

[Q] Thinking if getting Galaxy Tab 10.1 to replace iPad 1...

Hi Guys
I am trying to decide on switching from my 64GB 3G iPad 1 to a Galaxy Tab 10.1 and was hoping you could give me some feedback?
Basically, I have been something of an Apple user for the last few years, but have recently gotten an SGS2 which I just love....way more than my iPhone 4S!
As the iPad 1 is now a little old, and quite a heavy beast, I am thinking of going for a 10.1 instead. I can only really afford a 16GB one (with 3G), so would plan to get a SD card adapter for playing bigger files.
I have seen some threads on this from a good few months ago, so was hoping that with firmware tweaks, etc, there may be more updated views out there?
Any thoughts you guys have would be great!
Cheers
When I first got my Tab 10.1, I was a little dispointed. It was laggy and kinda slow. I played with my gf's pad2 before i got the tab (wich i got from my gf). And i notice that the pad was much more "smoother".
After a few weeks, i decided to root and flash a costume rom, best thing ever.
Now the tab is more faster and "smoother" than the ipad2.
There is more to the tab then the ipad. More customize etc.
So if you consider a tab, you might want to flash a costume rom to get a better experience.
Im using Task650 6.2 rom with pershoot kernel (wich is overclockable)

Hi
Thanks for that - really helpful of you! It seems that it may be as customisable as the SGS2, which would be a cool thing!

Keep in mind that the hardware version you get will affect which ROMs you would be able to use. Not all galaxy tab 10.1's are the same.
Due to its popularity the wifi only tabs have a greater number of ROMs wheras those of us on Verizon tabs for example have to either use Liquidspeed or take the leaked 3.2 ROM and customize it.
I really like my Verizon version though.
After playing with my in-laws iPads, and my rooted thunderbolt, I picked up this galaxy.
A few times I have been *almost* to the point of getting rid of it. Maybe after I can find out how to root the VZW 4G one I have, it will get better. The internet is VERY laggy on mine. I have tried the OEM browser, firefox, dolphin and they all stink.

Yeah I was going to make mention of this as well. Personally I have the 3G 8.9, which I absolutely love, because I think Samsung hit the nail right on the head with the size sweet spot; even my Apple "fan-girl" sister saw it and was like "Whoa, that is really slick! What is that?"
Anyway, what I was about to say/ask is, considering you're not really going to be able to make any GSM calls on the tablet anyway, is there any specific reason you need to have 3G as opposed to sharing your SGS2's 3G via tethering? If being able to send/receive text message on a bigger screen is your concern, then may I suggest Tablet Talk? Basically the app actively syncs your text messages from your phone to your tablet via Bluetooth and/or WiFi. Uses very minimal battery, and it very useful. Even if you have conversations entirely on your tablet, they still show up in your phone's logs and message strings, so it's not fragmented or anything.
So, to break it down:
You already have SGS2.
Tablet Talk = SMS on your tablet via your SGS2
Mobile data connection = Tethering to your SGS2
WiFi versions = more popular in the dev community = better dev support
WiFi version = cheaper by ~£100 in most cases
Conclusion = Get WiFi version of GTab 10.1/8.9?
Unless of course I've missed something here, and the 3G version is still an absolute must...
What are your thoughts?

Rule of thumb for future reference for anyone buying mobile devices:
Never, ever, EVER, EVER, EVER, EVER(!!!!) buy a device which has been subsidized, customized, or otherwise touched in ANY way shape or form, by a carrier.
Carrier subsidized devices = Slower, bloated, locked down, controlled (by carrier), less popular for development, less chance of getting it to do what you want.
Solution:
Sell your 4G VZW Tab.
Get VZW LTE hotspot instead.
Get WiFi Tab instead.
Enjoy better dev support on your Tab device.
Continue to enjoy LTE speeds via your hotspot.
Profit.
Hi all
Thanks so much for all of your input.
Interesting points about using the mobile data of my SGS2 for the Galaxy Tab. Sounds like a good idea, but how would I go about this? Is it hard??
Cheers

I have a SGS2 and had a Wi-Fi Tab which I just replaced with a UK 3G version. Tethering is a pain in the ass.
- Get out the SGS2 and enable Wi-Fi Sharing
- Turn Wi-Fi on and connect the Tab
- Disconnect Wi-Fi on the Tab
- Turn off Wi-Fi Sharing on the SGS2
I was always forget to turn off Wi-Fi sharing and it kills the SGS2's battery. If you're traveling, it's great to whip out the Tab and instantly have access to e-mail and messaging without having to go through the above four step process.
Here's something to think about when deciding between Wi-Fi and 3G:
- I use the Tab as my primary e-mail and messaging device now because it's a joy to have the additional real estate to read and compose messages. The SwiftKey split keyboard is great and you can really pick up some speed for longer messages.
- Wi-Fi Sharing sucks battery on the phone. A couple of times I found myself screwed because my phone battery was low right before I needed to get on a long conference call.
- If you're on AT&T you can add-a-line for $9.99 and get unlimited data for $10 for the Tab. I also added unlimited messaging to mine for $10.
- The Tab switches between Wi-Fi and 3G automatically so it's always connected and your e-mail, messages, and anything else you're syncing are always current which means it doesn't slow to a crawl when you first start it while it's updating everything. It gets amazingly good battery life even when connected to 3G 24/7.
- Between my phone and Tab I burn through 10-14GB of data a month. If I did that while tethering there's a good chance I'd get flagged by AT&T for excessive usage. It's safer to split the data between the two devices and I'm still only paying $20 a month for data between both of them.
- There's a rumor that ICS will support GSM calling. If so, that will be a great benefit for video and conference calls. At a minimum, you've got the bonus of a second line/SIM that you can use by popping it in to another phone.
The benefits of 3G over the Wi-Fi version really depend on how you use your device. If you travel a lot I'd strongly recommend 3G. If you use it at home and/or always have access to Wi-Fi then save the money on the device and plan and go with Wi-Fi only.
Exactly what I need to know for real life usage. Majority of the being around WiFi connection will only make more sense to actually get a WiFi model and sorry about the moving out and about with a WiFi Tethering or might as well get a mobile hotspot to move around with

Back to topic, Tab would be better off with its customization and everytime flashing will virtually give the tab a new lease of life to it.

[Q] EVO LTE a lot of problems/bugs is it true ?? Do you??

Simple question. Probably getting the EVO LTE , but I've heard there are some problems with WiFi or connectivity . I've found some threads confirming that the problems exist.
What are the odds Ill be getting a bad phone? Are these problems just on a few phones or all?
Are those problems something a custom ROM will fix?
Obviously I don't want to get a bad phone. I prefer to wait 1 or 2 months , for a new batch of problem free phones. Then Ill get one, or try my luck.
Thnks everybody everything helps.
I had issues with wifi like a few others when I was unrooted but it was easy to fix and I haven't been having the problem in a while. Aside from that I'm very happy with the phone

the problem with wifi connectivity is compatibility with 4 different specific modems, couple of linksys and others, not that the phone is "bad" but sprint knows about it I talk to the tech at sprint store they told me they should have a fix soon..:good: running liquid smooth rom and life is great...
Not one problem so far. Rooted or not, I only rooted it, didn't unlock the bootloader or flashed anything.

I've definitely had problems with WiFi dropping out for no reason. I've had them both before root and after. The device will simply just drop the connection for no good reason.
The only reason I haven't returned the phone is I'm stubborn. I am going to do a nandroid back-up (already used TiBU) and return this device for a different one.
Because I have Best Buy protection, they should just swap it out for a different device. I've had mine since May 25th, the 2nd day of release.
I hope that helps--the rumor is there was a bad batch of EVO's and Sprint/HTC knows it. Fortunately we are not like the poor HOX (HTC One X) users where the only fix for their issue is a soldering iron...

I had problems initially with wifi dropping, changed the setting to 2.4Ghz only, turned off best performance and downloaded wifi manager. Haven't had a problem since.

All phones have problems, i wouldn't listen to any one person. Review opinions in this forum and see if the amount of problems are more or less than the competitors. There are a lot of good phones out there right now and not a one of them is a dog, contrary to what fanboys like to say. It also depends what you are coming from. If your current phone is less than a year old you may want to wait it out for a while. I'm not sure any of the choices now are light years ahead of last years group.
I haven't had any issues at all with the phone, except the crappy multitasking.
Oh and don't use the "best WiFi performance" option, it will drain your a lot (35% over 6 hours vs. 3%)
All new phones have bad eggs in a batch. It's the nature of the beast. I personally went through 3 Evo Lte's until I got a good one because of dead pixels. When I got my Evo 3D I got a good one right off the bat, while many others had problems. It doesn't matter what brand it is wether its HTC, Samsung, or even Apple they all have bad eggs.
Sent from my Evo Lte
It is true to a point, I but don't blame HTC I believe a lot of poor signal just simply has to do with sprints known ways of claiming they are top of notch, but truly they are behind in the game ITS THEY'RE SIGNAL THEY'RE TOWERS, there possible merge to lte may be why we see slow data poor signal
When lte goes full blown we who stuck with sprint will have unlimited 4G and those one atat and vzw will have the same 4G but data capped.
That's why it's been slow for years its a waiting game
So I'd start thinking along the lines it's not all HTC it's the networks signal

No problems here, only issues ive heard about are from dipshits that dont know how to use it. HTCs best EVO yet. Wait till development really starts up, this device will be straight off the chain.

Verizon Skype

Hi Guys,
I know that a lot of people hate verizon's skype. I like it because it has the BT working and is using a phone not data.
Minutes are not considered toward monthly cap and it is very reliable as far as a connection goes .
Unfortunately it says not supported by this device. Use the other.
The normal skype app is not that good, resource consuming BT does not work, and it eat up a lot of data.
Esp bad when moving or insinde some buildings where signal is poorer.
My questions is if it could be modded to work on note 2.
On my GN works fine.
Many thanks
Abe

It could also b that vzw does not support it in jb. I cant find the app with my nexus on the market but installed and it worked on a custom rom.
I am hoping once custom rom will b released I can try.
I have an OG droid. I can extract the app from there.
I did install several apps 1.6.0.0 and the latest. None of them work.
One tells me that this app works only on verizon the others that there is a better version of skype.
My gripe is with the main skype app. Poor. Heavy on resources, a lot of data, battery, cpu, does not have BT working.
I cannot use when moving it sounds horrible and I am in a very good LTE area. That app works fine while still in a spot with good LTE connection or WiFi.
I love the original skype because is a simple verizon "phone call". No, it does not uses minutes since is a in network call, and the BT works. It always did. Also there is not data used almost at all
I use skype a lot with people abroad and is as good as any phone call but free and I can get the reliability of VZW network.
Now I have my GN with me and the Note 2 as well. Not a pleasant solution
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Wow, I totally forgot about this.
Yeah, that would be cool as hell to use minutes and bluetooth.
Wonder if there are any existing XDA modded versions.
Some google searching is turning up repeated mentions of such a mod .apk.
So infuriating that newest skype doesn't support bluetooth.
GRRR
Some people point to mono audio app in market as a way to force routing audio to bluetooth. This may be a partial solution fwiw.
I have RAZR Maxx HD and when I was on ICS there was a way to do it... when I tried to send an IM using Skype, it was automatically loading "Verizon's version" of Skype and then I could call anybody and anyone could call me using verizon's cellular network (not data)... not anymore... JB plugged the hole and many other. Courtesy of Verizon wireless, where customer comes last and primary goal is to milk us and generate hefty profits and bonuses... darn it.
JB vs ICS
I might be JB vs ICS. I have a Gnexus ( toro) with custom JB on it and it works fine.
I am hoping that some aosp rom would make this app work again.
I have tried in a store all the motorola and the S3 not of them would run this light Skype.
I think it has to do with the model number.
Ok. I found a way to do it. Uninstall new Skype and install "Verizon's" skype.
Next click on People and choose IM and person's nick you wanna call (it has to be assigned as skype contact) it will take you to "Verizon" skype and no need to use data.

T-Mobile vs Verizon variant comparison

I just picked up another G2- this time on T-Mobile (I guess I missed the phone more than I originally thought I would). I like this variant a lot better than the verizon one I had previously. I like the original button layout much better than VZW's tweaked layout. Also the bluetooth audio problems I had with the VZW version are not as bad on this one. The track listing on the radio is still blank over half the time and sometimes I can't use the radio buttons to skip tracks, but the music never hiccups or stops like the VZW one tended to do and I guess that's the main thing.
Maybe when I root it and throw a newer Android version ROM on there the bluetooth problems will go away.
Either way I'm really enjoying being a G2 owner again and can't wait to see if we get a Nexus 5 ROM to try out soon!
Verizon has Qi Wireless Charging which is a pretty big feature to go without. I just got mine yesterday. I don't know why Verizon can't leave well enough alone with the buttons. The Verizon model being an outcast compared to other models is a pain when it comes to cases. Although the Incipio Feather is there, so thats all I use. But could be a pain for others.
I don't think there are any differences in internal chips or programming so if your experience should be the exact same on all variants. I haven't experimented with BT yet but I haven't heard any issues with it. And you're right that it would probably go away if you used AOSP or CM.
The first one was probably just a dud.
From what I've read on here, Verizon variants are also experiencing GPS issues at a much higher clip compared to the others. Don't mean to pile on but the wireless charging came at some cost. But the development has taken OFF!!

Battery life is another cost of wireless charging (due to heat), probably doesn't matter to people keeping their phone for a year though.

FWIW, my GPS is spot on. I'm VZW, rooted stock, Modem/Radio A, in case that makes any difference.
my verizon G2's GPS seems to work properly but yeah I like the original buttons
