Seriously .... go back to iPhone if you want to assume everything is the same. The carrier name is on the lock screen.

Why such a rude response? He was merely stating his observation, which I can understand since I thought the exact same thing. And no, I'm not coming from an iphone - I'm coming from a Nexus One.
You should be a little more considerate to other people, especially when you come asking for help yourself.

I don't think my response was rude. There are some people on here who just want to respond, weather it be productive or not. I apologize that I was short, but this isn't the format for coddling those who aim to boost their post count.
If someone asks a question, I wouldn't reply unless I was knowledgable in the matter. Someone who says the carrier name is in the top bar obviously doesn't have the phone, and most likely has an iphone, which I'm not sure why they'd even be here.
Either way, assuming he\she was responding with good intentions and mis-spoke, whats the point of telling me where to find the carrier name. Doesn't the fact that I'm asking how to CHANGE the carrier name make it crystal clear that I know and see the carrier name, but want to CHANGE it?
It crosses the line when someone talks to be heard. A wise man bites his tongue when given the opportunity to talk about something he doesn't know.

Flashing CM7 allows for carrier name customization? How so?

You may not be able to change it but at least you will be able to hide/remove it

Help Need Making A very Personal App

Well basically, this girl I like, and me have the same phone, the Atrix 4G. Now I wanted to ask her to a dance, and wanna make an app for that, Something creative and original, like say plays a youtube video of me asking her to the dance, then opens up a prompt which says yes and no, if she selects yes, her phone calls/texts me the answer, what is your opinion on this? Will it work? Too Nerdy? Overkill?

i doubt you will find a dev who wants to spend time on this ... for free...
but you might figure out how to do this yourself

this guy's got excellent FREE consolidated android dev videos on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/user/CornboyzAndroid
Hahaha thanks for all the positive replies, yeah I've never coded before in any kind of form, I'm more of a hardware person, though you see fragmentation won't be a problem here as me and her have the same phone. Any more how to videos would be appreciated, I have a lot of time for this, but just wanted to put the idea out there and get some support, after all I thought android devs would be more helpful considering they develop for open source platforms.

If its a yes, there might be a reaction video depending on whether she agrees!
I hope you don't like this girl because she has the same phone as you. That's really... rhymes with day. But uh, if she says yes, put your app on the market and market it as able to get you dates. Btw, if she says yes and you two hit it off, are you going to make an app asking her can I see what is in your panties?

Current information on NV FLASH RECOVERY Manang

Any solution for recovery mode NVFLASH
on the screen of my Atrix says:
SVF: 105.1:2

NVFLASH Entering Recovery Mode
Batery is too low to flash
what were you trying to do when this happened?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
You hard bricked. There's no fix. Either exchange your phone if you can, or buy a new one.
so no one has figured out how to fix this yet, people have figured it out with other phones using external equipment, what's so different about the ATRIX?
Erebus671 said:
okay, I am seeing this alot, but everyone else unit seems to shut off before anything can happen, mine does not, it simply stays on. That being said, I am conducting an experiment, since my ATRIX was afflicted I baught a new one because I liked the webtop idea, so im charging my new one to 100% and then im going to swap out batteries and check the results. Has anyone seen any evidence at all that might suggest a possible fix? I will update you guys on the results of my experiment once completed, hopefully I can come across something that will lead someone to a fix if not find one myself.

http://briefmobile.com/motorola-atrix-4g-system-boot-file-sbf-leaked
would this do the job
Negative my friend. Although the sbf (single binary file, not system boot file) is essential to the phone, it will only work if the phone is softbricked (bootloop or just stuck on M dualcore technology screen), not hardbricked (nvflash screen.) You will also need a dev cable to fix this. Remember we are looking for the secure boot key, not the single binary file. Good attempt though. Keep me updated if you find anything else. Pm me if needed.

Go ahead, let us know how it goes. By the way, are you also going to tell them that you voided your warranty by rooting and unlocking your bootloader? Cause when you ask for the sbk, you wont need to tell them that, they'll know automatically. Not to be rude... just saying

So? That doesn't mean they will be pissed. They are people just like the rest of us. Im sure they don't care that some people unlock their bootloaders. We're still buying and using their hardware. Ill try to get a contact. I might apply to Motorola mobility for an internship also.

I work with a lot of motorola canopy (wireless point to multipoint and BH stuff not a lot to do with phones) but my point with this is i have talked to asked many of thier engineers a lot of simple questions for similar problems and usually get laughed at so dont hold to many high hopes for calling up there and them handing you the keys lol

Its not that they will get pissed, they'll simply tell you that you've voided your warranty, probably laugh at you for even trying to ask and then hang up on you. But hey, by all means, who knows what could happen, and if you manage to get that internship, then you could probably get access to that sbk for us. Not likely though, but still, good luck with that.

I think most people, myself included, just didn't understand what you were asking. Your question was worded in a confusing manner and I can't speak for everyone, but I just don't know what this "frequent text" thing is. I don't see anything like that in the stock messaging app which is why I, and probably others, just couldn't help you.
All that being said, I don't think (most) people are necessarily being malicious in their sarcasm but just making a little joke so don't take it too personally.

Ok say you want to send a text you press the icon the click on menu and click on group and it will show frequent or type a name that you normally use and it will say frequent next to name
Okay, now I see what you're taking about. I think I can safely say I never would have found that on my own. I think I can also safely say there is no way to remove that. It seems pretty embedded in the app but someone more knowledgeable than me might be able to figure out a way.
