"My phone number" in About Phone==>Status - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I've read a lot of threads about this and have found no feasible answer to this (at least for me). My Atrix 4G running android 2.3.4 on Blue Chronic firmware "HomeBase Mega4 - Gingerbread 2.3.4" shows a blank field in the "My phone number" section. I know that using a Sony Ericsson or an old Samsung phone will allow me to edit this on my sim card, however I do not have access to either of these types of phones. Has anybody found a way to edit this on the Atrix itself, either by using SQLite editor or even using Root Explorer's text editor? I can do it easily if I can just find the fields that need to be edited. Please help.
Any possible solutions will be much appreciated.
Also does anybody know where I can find the .apk files after an apps been installed, do they get saved to a folder on the phone like a computer's "Temporary Internet Files" folder when you just click "run" in the dialog box?

Download AppMonster, select the app you want the apk for, select backup. Use Root Explorer to navigate to sdcard/appmonster2/[the app you want]/rev/you will find the apk here

Thanks Pirate.
Now I still need the My phone number info, hopefully someone has that info....

You can edit the phone number using CM7

hmm, I have blue chronic right now, maybe I'll try to install CM7 again, last time I tried my phone soft bricked itself.. well, I soft bricked it...
Edit: Thanks for the tip though, I'll try it again...

Update: For some reason I am unable to install CM7. No clue why, I'll do a little research and try again. In the mean time if anyone has any other possible solutions, they would be much appreciated.

Still having trouble with this, if anyone has any roms other than CM7 that they would recommend that would be nice.

Just download the Rom Manager app from the market, it should let you know if your recovery is up to date and offer to update it for you if it isn't

Okay, I stated doing that after I saw your post, but just to be on the safe side, what is the recommended version, or if you're not entirely sure, where can I get it?

You have to use the cd (change directory command) in your command prompt to get to where you fastboot program is so for example if its file path is c:/androidtools/fastboot.exe
you would have to open cmd and type
Code:
cd c:\androidtools\
and then you could run any fastboot commands from there
if you don't already have fastboot it's here

It's the same for me

I had that problem when I switched my carrier. I have not came across a ROM for it that allows SIM number change. If you dont have an issue installing this, use that to change your number, otherwise you might need to borrow someone's blackberry phone to do it, most of the BB's are known to be able to edit SIM numbers apparently.
I ended up digging out my old Acer Liquid E running CM7 based ROM which had the SIM number option and worked like a charm on my current SIM (it is the proper number now). But this option is no where to be found on the Atrix's CM7 ROMs

Getting apps from computer to Vibrant?

Im getting the Vibrant on Thursaday and I found a few app packs online that I have downloaded to my computer. I wanted to know how I can transfer them to my phone. Do they need to be in a certain folder? Can I just hook it up to my USB cable? Thanks!

Use the adb install command. It's really easy.
Or you could use astro file manager if your not familiar with adb.
Feeling Vibrant on xda-app
Just plug your phone into your computer, throw the APKs onto one of the memory cards, then go into the file manager that came with the phone and run the APKs.

If he's on XDA and plans to mod his phone, he's gonna have to learn ADB eventually. Better to jump right in it and get it out the way now. ABD install is probably one of, if not, the simplest command. Let's not baby new folks just because they're new.
I dont plan to mod my phone. I just would like to know how to add new wallpapers and widgets from my laptop to my phone.
Just copy the apk files to the sdcard then use the file manager to install them.
Lol, I try to stay away from ADB as much as I can. I always go for the easiest way out.

90% of the time, ADB is the easiest way out. Especially in the case of having multiple apk installs. adb install *.apk will do them ALL at once instead of having to do it one by one.

Gee thanks. I haven't read and/or tried that over 100 times in the last few days.
I'm way beyond that and have gotten it to mount via terminal, which STILL doesn't show up as a mounted drive when I do a df, but I can moves files to it so I guess it *KINDA* works for now.

easy sideloading new way.

Hi guys, just found an easy way to to get the hidden setting for starting the sideload process from browser.
put any app (".apk" file) on the sdcard anyway easy for you, give it an easy short name before actaully moving it to sdcard, so you remember and not make mistake typing it later.
In the Nook Tablet open the browser type: file://localhost/sdcard/appxxxx.apk
Substitute appxxxx.apk with your apk file actual name.
This will bring hidden settings, then choose unkown source and off you go.
This is first step to to root..
Thanks for sharing.
Is "appxxxx.apk" the name of the app we want to side-load or the actual keystrokes we type in? Does this method work after 1.4.1 update?
Its more oriented to 1.4.1 so yes will work because unknown sources its a must in order to sideload from links and applications.

noob here... I also need guidance about the appXXXX.apk. What do I fill in for the XXXX? Can I get an example?
Thanks in advance!!
How did you put the app on the SD card - via your PC? And then do I replace the four Xs with the app name, as in file://localhost/appangrybirds.apk? Can we do this with 1.4.1 unrooted?

I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume...
"AppXXXX" ... aka "GenericAppName" ... aka "FillInTheBlank" .
I think what he found is that by going through the web browser and into your directory structure, it somehow bypasses the preventative check that would come up and say "BN Store .apks only!".
Could be wrong... i don't have 1.4.1.
edit: from the OP's description, it seems possible, however highly unlikely, that the Settings menu in which you allow unknown sources is accessed by launching an app called "AppXXXX.apk". Again... highly unlikely, but I could see some confusion from the way he typed it.
OP is perfectly clear and this works with rooted 1.4.0. appxxxx.apk means maps.apk.
Thanks MikeCH
Will this work with non rooted 1.41 nook tablet?

Is it possible to get a browser to download directly to the SD card instead of manually having to do it?
dude... just type this in the browser....
nook1.adamoutler.com
nook2.adamoutler.com
nook3.adamoutler.com
Those three addresses will give full functionality to an unrooted tablet with just sideloading. They load: Hidden Settings, homecatcher, and launcherpro.
Have fun.
No joy
Tried this on a stock NT 1.4.1.
file://localhost/appname.apk
Results in "file not found"
file://localhost/sdcard/appname.apk
Does pop the installer selection screen, but then the install is blocked by 1.4.1 just like other side-load methods. Methinks the author doesn't have a stock 1.4.1. Perhaps he has unknown sources enabled from a previous root?

Absolutely, just google an apk file and download it. Then go to your browser menu to the downloads and open the file. This should bring the hidden setting too.

That's because you're doing it out of a regular ol' command prompt.
There's two things you an do to alleviate that problem.
1) Follow this:
Right click on the My Computer icon and select the properties tab.
Select Advanced and click the Environment Variables button.
In the new dialog box double-click on Path (located under System Variables) and type in the full path location to the tools directory.
So essentially if your directory for ADB and fastboot are under C:\<SDK FOLDER NAME>\tools or C:\<SDK FOLDER NAME>\platform-tools, add those to the Path.
2) Go to the directory where ADB/Fastboot, hold SHIFT and then right click. It'll give you the option to open up a command prompt from that directory with should allow you to run those specific commands.
Also, getting back to the Paths. Make sure when you go to add a new path that you put a ; IMMEDIATELY after the very last one. Then absolutely no spaces right after that ;. So.... example coming up..
Let's say a path was C:\banana\peel, and you want to add your ADB folder. So it'll be typed like so, C:\banana\peel;C:\<SDK FOLDER>\tools and then you repeat the same exact thing for the next folder.
I really hope this helps!

Following the first method (thanks alot for the help too man, I appreciate it).
Ive found the PATH section you told me about, but I dont understand what you mean by "the full path location to the tools directory".
2) Where is the ADB/Fastboot directory?
New member here as well and was my first rooting and not as hard or challenging as you might think unless things go wrong.
Talk about noob on my part haha I didn't have any files (adb and sdk) well in my defense when I rooted my razr I had some program I downloaded that basically did everything for me so I guess haha thanks for these tips people keep them coming well attempt this again tonight or weekend

Its okay. I was confused on this too because i ran the fastboot and it said it didn't recognize it. So i realized that fastbook has to be a program that i have to install. Eventually i figured out it was from the android sdk, but all the guides assume you have android sdk installed. They might want to consider adding something like "make sure you have android sdk installed and your Path set" in their guides. I know that would have saved me some trouble haha. ^_^
Yea that would have saved me some sleep haha I still can't get it to work though when I do CID exploit command prompt says no recognized ADB devices I think it might be cause I can't install HTC drivers (I hope cause I'm getting frustrated) haha will try again in next couple days

I'd recommend doing a Google search of adb and not try anything with it until you understand it. And you could try dvhexers version of faux's kernel to fix the sd card, but you should probably just use his fixed cm10 rom.

well i know a bit about ADB its not my first time.. when i try the ADB SHELL with my phone in recovery plugged to the PC, the PC says device not detected .
yes i tried the faux's kernel to fix the sd card it still not showing me the EXTERNAL or INTERNAL storage on my pc i can transfer or do anything only via Airdroid.
and yes, i used the CM10 rom with the faux fix... still not showing anything new.
for startes i have to say i love this rom but these bugs really gives me the thought of getting back to STOCK LGOG..
so what do u think is best to do know?
thanx!Q!

cant find the Nexus 4 drivers only the ADB interface i've got but still not loading in pc any storage
what about the 16gb issue?
Sounds like you jumped in without being fully prepared.
you need a working knowledge of ADB and the BASH shell in order to proceed.

Now. read these threads. Then read them again

for a quick and dirty understanding of ADB I've written a tutorial. It's found in a link in my signature.
