Hi,
I have a Leo on order from O2 and I had a couple of quick questions.
1. Is there a workable extended battery solution and a belt-clip case that fits along the lines of the old O2 XDAIIi case which can be detached from the plastic belt clip?
2. Is Android actually usable and easily hot-swappable with Win 6.5 from the SD card?
3. Are there alternatives to the onscreen keyboard supplied?
4. Is there a workable external keyboard and stand solution?
I know the answers are buried somewhere, and I've looked, but a quick summary would be much appreciated.
Thanks
M
1) not that I know of
2) It's "usable" in a way that it'll never be 100% to a native android phone
3) You mean 3rd party software like Swype? No
4) there are bluetooth keyboards and stands available
Great thanks for the summary. Presumably there is an extended battery solution but not the case.

Android runs very smooth and with as few problems as any mobile phone (on its native OS). Older versions of Android were both laggy and buggy, but all the latest builds are running very well. I've gone 3 months without using Windows on my phone.

Some flash, yes. I'm not sure what version the player is, but don't expect a fully functioning Flash plugin. That's the same on Android too. Also, if you're after web-based Flash content then you'll get a lot of people recommending Skyfire. I tried it myself and hated it with a passion, but it's worth a try at least.

Great, I had got the impression somehow there was no way round it.
the keyboard layout definition is stored in xml files, so it's relatively easy to modify the buttons sizes for example, one such attempt here, but before you start experimenting give yourself a week or two to get used to it - imho the original keyboard is actually quite ok
Great! Thanks for the replies. All sounds good.
Are 32Gb MicroSD cards still a bit of an elusive item? Do I just get Sandisk 16Gb - does it matter about the Class?
Is there a safe hotswappable Android install/build to start with which won't void the warranty?
Also, what's the most cost effective SatNav - on WinMo or Android?
Thanks again.
anyone else here notice a lag in the keyboard typing especially on browser, say like replying in a forum...plus the accuracy does not seem to be very good.
Same here! It was fine for a while after I disabled the ripple effect. But starts slowing down again. Its one of the main reasons I keep getting back to android. WebOS has nice interface.

Wi fi is not perfect on cm7 but is working well enough to not have to use web os. You are missing out since Android is working great even in an alpha stage. There is no reason to not give it a try since there is no risk in doing so.

No problems on WebOS keyboard; I kind of like it better than the stock android keyboards.
As for CM7 Android, it's definitely still an alpha product; it is great if you don't have any problems, but if you do, you are just out of luck. I had no problems with Alpha 2 with Xron's great package 1.37, but alpha 3 with Xron's 3.3 package gives me wifi nightmares. I've seen a few posts with problems like mine - the wifi has to be re-enabled after every boot - also, my wifi drops the connection after 3 or 4 minutes. Kills me because otherwise it is so great. I'd recommend trying it - maybe you'll be like most people and won't have any of the wifi problems.
iirc the breif reading i did so far its a dual boot? so i dont really lose webos at all and can boot into either OS?

Correct. You do not lose web os if you install cm7. That is the beauty of the touchpad. Two operating systems available in one tablet. You have a choice on which to use on demand.

One of the things I like about the webOS keyboard is the accuracy of it, but there is indeed some lag when typing in some forms.
Also, Shift + Enter actually works on the webOS keyboard unlike all Android soft keyboards it's useful for the facebook site or entering a new line
And the webOS browser renders full pages better than most Android browsers as well
I've noticed that android keyboard works ligtyears better for me and typing and zero lag.
Typing seems good for me on WebOS. Sometimes taps seem a little off, but I'm not sure if it's me or not. Anywho, you may want to check out some of the patches in preware. There are some to address scrolling speed and you can disable the ripple effect on clicks.
Personally, I really like WebOS and haven't bothered with the CM7 alpha's yet (I do have two other Android devices in the house though -- one a Nook running CM7, so I know what's out there).
Is anyone working on a way to remove WebOS completely from our devices? I mean for those of us who have no desire to retain any part of the system, nor use it ever. It seems like an awful waste of space.

I think this will be done once we have a very stable port of android running.
Right now webos isn't taking up that much space and its nice to have a backup just in case. I'm with you though in wanting to eventually remove it completely.

I believe dalingrin stated in one of the earlier release notes for one of the alphas that he does not plan on finding a way to remove webos entirely (He likes it, and it can serve as a backup in case android turns to poo). But who knows, maybe some dev will find a way, only time will tell

I have a few questions.
What are you putting on your touchpad that those ~2 GB are such a big deal? Also, if space was a concern why didn't you buy a 32GB model. I have 8 of the 10.5 storage available, and 1.1 of the system 1.5 free. I have all the apps I could want. Until last week there was no point putting movies on there, but now Netflix works I don't see a point anyway.
You can change the moboot delay to 1 sec (changing the delay to 0 will remove the auto boot, it just sits at moboot). Is a 5 second delay really such a big inconvenience every time you power cycle the device? How often are you power cycling the device anyway? At my check before I installed alpha 2 I had over a week of up time. I see no need to reboot the device unless I am flashing something.
While I almost never boot into webOS since CM9, I still see the value in a back up OS. And webOS is an elegant, smooth, intuitive experience. It would be one thing if CM7 was the back up, then i would be all over removing it. Yeah, the webOS app selection is bad, but so is tablet optimized android app selection. A solid web browser is 80%+ of my use on the TP. webOS had better browsers than gingerbread.
I just don't see the point of a new "how do I remove webOS?" thread every two weeks. Especially when the resounding response is generally "why?"
Sent from my Galaxy S II (i777)
I have a 32gb version, and with no expandable storage every gig on that thing is precious. IDK about you, but I have wayyyyy more than 32gb of music. Also as long as we have an ability to boot into clockworkmod, there is absolutely no reason to retain a "backup" os as you call it. As for power cycling my device, it just depends on whether or not I want to save battery; or if I encounter a bug (like touchscreen unresponsiveness or SOD).
IDK why, but to me this seems like it should be a trivial task to streamline this into a full fledged android device at this point. Also, I wasn't aware there were any threads about how to remove WebOS, I looked at the main page and expected to find one but didn't. Ergo, this thread.
Not trying to be rude-
I was forced to see this thread when I tried to open a new thread titled "Remove webOS":
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1453930
A search for "Remove webOS" also found that thread in the general section and the following in just the first page of results on the Q&A forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1461517&highlight=remove+webos
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1490575&highlight=remove+webos
I found those with less than 5 minutes of searching on xda.
A google search returned this as the first result (searched "remove webos"):
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/8571-anyway-to-remove-webos/
Again, I know this sounds condescending, but it's frustrating to see this question constantly. Maybe it's because on the Galaxy S II forum we are flooding with the same questions at least weekly; "How do I install an i9100 ROM?", "Where is ICS?", "I installed a i9100 ROM without reading the instructions, my phone is acting weird".
You weren't the first to ask this question, and you won't be the last to ask it. I bet we'll see another thread before February is over. Outside of the threads dedicated solely to this question there has been a lot of discussion of this topic. On twitter, Rootzwiki, and here on xda. There is more to it than just a penchant for webOS. I am fairly certain the android system could not function without some of the webOS architecture or files. I cannot find where I saw that off hand, but I am pretty sure that currently it's not possible, even if some of the devs wanted to do it. I didn't respond with this the first time, because I could not find the source.
I also have much more than 32GB of music. But with Google Music, Pandora, Slacker, and other similar apps I don't see the need to put music on my device. If you played all your music non-stop how long would it run before repeating? Days? I only have 500MB on my phone because there is no need for an artist discography when I only want 3 of their songs.
CWM is not a backup OS. It's a utility. Yes, i have never borked CWM, but if you have too many moboot entries how can you fix that from CWM? You can't. You have to either be in webOS or Android. When switching from one ROM to another often both entries are there, and for me more often than not neither will boot. I just get boot failures. Without webOS I would have to use webOS doctor to completely wipe the device and start over, and reinstall android completly fresh. This happened to me at least 5 times in the past two months.
I posted from the android app, you don't see suggestions of similar threads.

That brings up an interesting point. How did you get the xda app to run on the touchpad? Are you using tapatalk? I could not get the xda app to run on any CM7 or CM9 variant. Judging by the market comments the xda app doesnt run on any tablets, even legit ones.
Personally for that reason I don't think the mobile app should have the ability to create threads. Also the search function on the app is beyond useless.

After many months of a friendly rivalry, a coworker and I have decided to swap phones for a week. (We're both on AT&T, so I assume we can just switch sim cards?)
If it were you, what ROM would you put on the phone to allow for the best experience for someone who has never used android before?
I was thinking CM9, but since it has problems with certain games (Temple Run comes to mind, which we both play all the time), that's probably not a good idea. Moreover, the in-call echo would probably leave a bad impression. Then again, I guess I could flash some other modems on my own and see if that solves it.
So, in your opinion: which rom best shows off the advantages of Android compared to iOS?

ICS of some sort without a doubt... Maybe XWLP7?
Perhaps set it up to be Nandroidable between CM9 and a TW ICS firmware - "Here's the way it comes from Samsung, it's almost all working but there are Samsungisms people don't like - and here's CM9 - it's still in development but it's a mostly pure Android 4.0 experience".
How are you guys going to work out the sim/microsim difference?
I wonder if it would work to just swap phones as is, then forward each phone number to the other number.
iPhones use microsim. Completely forgot. Hmm.... I guess that throws a bit of a wrench into our plans.
My wife uses a 4S and I just bought my Galaxy last week. Right now I am using tasks AOKP ICS, but I have to say:
So far i like the UCPLC5 Official ATT "Leak". It has ICS, and the Samsung stuff, and its quite nice. It just feels like more of a polished product than the stock android. If its a real rivalry, don't forget about the brands. I also have a samsung point and shoot camera, and lcd tv, laptop, toaster and ... blah blah...
Have had no issues with games with that rom, only my Amiga emulator. Temple Run, shadowgun, angry birds space, all work great.

Interesting question!
Just don't put MIUI on it. It will confirm any suspicions he may already have that Android is an iOS wannabe.
You can get a microSIM adapter for about $5, or make a DIY adapter that should last a week. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJFPh2oc8hM)

Dual boot and nandroid backup might not be such a good idea, just saying. I would think twice about letting your coworker, who own an iPhone, mess around in cwm. Nothing against iPhone users.

That's highly experimental.
+1 for SHOstock. Shoman just posted v2, with lots of improvements.
Depending on the user I would also hesitate going overboard with dual boot stuff. Its really cool feature to have but might be too much for someone's first android experience.
AOKP is really nice too, but I feel there are a few visual inconsistencies that may make it feel incomplete to an outsider. Like the progress bars, the best off hand example is CPU Spy. I think SHOstock gives the best of both. You get the good things about TW and shoman has done a great job themeing it. The one thing isn't intuitive to a first timer is the quick panel settings. You may want to set that up first, or at least make an effort to show your friend what it is referring to.
I'd be instested to hear the results of the swap.

I just got one of those 20$ lapdocks from Radioshack and was wondering what are the best ROMs with webtop? Right now I'm using Jokersax' CM9 (but considering switching to epinter's CM10) and just doing HDMI mirroring. I'd prefer to stick with my current ROM if there is some kind of webtop like thing or maybe Ubuntu or Debian that I can install on it. I have an 8GB microSD card and 5 gigs of internal storage left so space is not an issue.

define "full".
There is a "way" to run a full distro, but you'll be VNCing into it, since the terminal doesn't support a graphical output., anyways, it works alright, video is wonky though, so I wouldn't recommend that, but even openoffice works.

I see that the last post to this thread (before mine) is dated 3 years ago and the questions in it went unanswered, so I am doubtful that my question(s) will be seen or answered as well, but here goes.
This is my first post to these forums, so keep that in mind if I make any mistakes, or break any rules. I own 3 Motorola Atrix 4G phones in various states of working, plus the Lapdock, which is IMO brilliant and the main reason for me searching out this phone and buying 2 replacement phones after my first Atrix 4G LCD screen stopped working. In fact, I bought the Lapdock to use with my Raspberry Pi first, then decided I wanted the cell phone to use with the Lapdock. I still like the Atrix 4G, even though it replaced my iPhone (3S I think), which I lost (or it was stolen). My question(s) is/are the same as the OP and title of this thread, now that it is Sept. of 2015, what is the best ROM version and what is the latest version of Android I can use on my Atrix 4G, while still being able to use the Lapdock? I don't care if it means using the Webtop application, or a different Linux for ARM/Android desktop, but I don't want to lose any functionality of the stock cell phone. In fact, I want as much functionality as possible, so on occasions when I need to use the phone and lapdock combination as a temporary replacement for a full computer, I can do so, with reasonable limitations. The main functions I need/want in my Atrix 4G cell phone are: calling (obviously), GPS navigation, calendar, contacts, calculator, camera, taking notes for reminders, and searching the web for locations of things I need to buy, or places I need to go occasionally. I prefer Firefox as my web browser of choice, but can do with any good browser, if Firefox is not available with the best ROM & Android version choice for the Atrix 4G & lapdock combination.
I hope that some members here are still using the Atrix 4G, even though it is an old phone now, and they can give me their recommendations. I bought all 3 of my Atrix 4G phones unlocked and have zero experience at modifying or replacing ROM images on cell phones, but I am willing to learn how to do it, after I know what I will be aiming for with some recommendations. I also have almost zero experience with using Linux, but have checked it out a few times over the last 15+/- years.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Thanks for the quick reply b088yj.
Since I am new to all of this, can you give me more info on what the "leak version" is and where I can find it? I don't want to assume I can figure out what you mean by "leak version", and end up with results that don't work, or take a chance of bricking my phone.
Is this "leak version" using the Webtop, or some other desktop GUI for when the phone is plugged into the Lapdock? I have no preference to keeping or replacing the Webtop with something else, so long as it "just works", and provides the same functionality, including all features on the phone working (like the finger print reader, sound, camera, etc.).
Also, what steps are needed to install it (if you can just provide me with some links to where I can find the specific information I need to read, I can figure it out for myself, but listing the specific steps you took to install the "leak version" on your Atrix 4G would be really helpful, plus if there is anything needed before, during, or after you install the "leak version" to make it all just WORK).
For example: To install the "leak version" you need to install X number of things on your Atrix 4G, asdfg + hjkl; + zxcvb in the order listed in the step-by-step instructions below.
Step 1: Backup your existing cell phone system, data and contacts using ???
Step 2: Wipe the system using ???
Step 3: Go here (link) and download file/app/utility/etc. abc.xyz
Step 4: Unzip and run, or install app/utility, or ???, on your cell phone/computer to transfer to your cell phone.
Step 5: Using a shell window, enter the following commands [email protected]#$%^&
Step 6: Repeat Steps 3 through 5 for file/app/utility/etc. 2 and 3, which you can find here (link) and here (link).
Step 7: Get on your knees and pray while rebooting your cell phone to see if it all worked
Like I wrote earlier, I have no idea what I need to do, but do have some common sense and can follow clearly written directions, if the person providing them to me does not assume that I know some part of the process and they leave out something they think is obvious and generally known to all cell phone hackers (which I am not to be considered in any shape, way, or fashion).
Thanks again,

Edit: I see from your signature, you are using a LG-E980, does that mean that you no longer use your Atrix 4G?
