It's a bit of a dodgy fix but you could try this. It's worked for a few people.

Moto warranty -> sell -> buy a good phone(
I had exactly same problem with my Atrix.
Exactly means exactly same location and dimensions of nontouchable area.
I tried everithing, was thinking about touch replacement but finally realized 99% I will end up with nonworking device.
Solution (depends)
-go to Motorola site and check if your atrix is still under warranty.(mine was more than year old but still on warr.)
-fill out online form for repair/replacement.
-back up your data and erase from device.
-send your atrix to them (dont send wires, battery, backcover, sd card, sim and orig.box) dont warry about unlocked bootloader, custom rom, etc. - they dont care.
-receive a new atrix. this will be a new device not fixed yours.
with build # 4.5.141 with UNLOCKABLE butloader.
-You may try to call Att for sim unlock code but this is useless. Go to cellunlock.net and buy code ($19.99 with discount code).
-get rid of motoblur account activation -

-Sell this useless junk on ebay
-Buy real phone (nexus, s3, note ?)
good luck

I have issues with some applications getting cut off at the bottom of the screen when using roms such as the AT(HoneyComb)RIX 3.4 EXT4 or the Alien one. I can still scroll to the bottom of the application using the rest of the screen but there will still be part of the screen gone the whole time. Off the top of my head it does this with my SSF4AE guide app, on every single page. Also using handcent I have a similar problem; the background is not appearing fully when I go to my list of text messages
Ive been using Alien for weeks and dont have this problem on any on my 700+ apps, including Handcent which is prob the one I use more than any other.
I had the SSF4AE app problem on both but the handcent problem was only on AT(HoneyComb)RIX 3.4 EXT4

I just thought about this, my photobucket app has appeared to be shrunk ever since Gingerbread, you can see it doesn't quite take up my screen.. But it sounds like you are having the opposite problem, the app is too big to be displayed on the screen right?
Edit: i think its not showing correctly because of my photobucket privacy settings.. But it is just slightly smaller than the screen, it has a black border all the way around. Also I dont know what SSF4AE is.
Its just a guide for a fighting game that I use frequently.
It's supposed to look like this http://i.imgur.com/NaI1e.jpg
but it looks like this http://i.imgur.com/oDByS.jpg
I didn't notice until now that you mentioned your photobucket app being smaller that the sides are cut off a little too as well in this. I just took a picture from the web and edited it btw.
This thread says to download "spare parts" and toggle compatibility mode, Im gonna try that now and let you know.
Edit: Yup that worked for me! that should fix the problem for you too. Thank you for asking the question because it motivated me to find this simple fix. Im gonna hit your thanks button for that, if it works for you feel free to do the same lol. Also, strangly enough Spare Parts was also one of those apps that had a scaling prob haha, but its fixed now in that app as well. I cant say for sure yet if unchecking the "compatibility mode" causes any negative effects on other apps but it for sure fixed the scaling issue in photobucket and spare parts. Additionally, the "fancy input animation" is pretty cool it makes the keyboard slide up instead of just appear. Enjoy.
Yup that fixed my problem with the SSF4AE guide app. Thanks a lot . The handcent issue is still there but it might just be a problem with the theme..
[Q] Find My Phone -> Lock (locked icon)

I told me that phone is locked, but it is not true.
It is unlocked and Find My Phone's "Lock" feature does not work for me.
Thanks.
Remove and readd it
This doesn't tell you that your phone is locked, this gives you the option to lock your phone in case it has been lost or stolen...
Sorry, but you are not right - if I click on this icon, it showed the message that phone is already locked. But it is not true, since I have unlocked it.
I tried it app. week ago and if I need this service again, it will NOT work.
Can you help me?
I am not the only person that has this problem:
1. http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...-1873-42a6-aac0-b5c185039186?tm=1336933502850
2. http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...0-930b2cc45d29?page=1&tm=1336933751760#footer
I also had it, removed phone and readded fixed the problem.
Great, thank you very much.
But I think that is an issue/problem - it is not a standard behavior in my opinion.
Does anybody know why it happens?
Thanks.
Removing and Re-adding Works
Thanks, removing the device and re-adding also worked for me. Once you lock the device the symbol will remain, and you can not use the feature again. This is the only workaround I know of.
Strange, but solved.
Close this thread, please.
it relies on your sim card.In a sense,it just lock your tel-number.Once your sim card was out of your phone,it not work.

It locks the phone, does nothing with your telephone number.
deactivated phone
Does anybody know how to remove the deactivation a service provider puts on a phone when due to theft/non-payment/etf? I have a LG P-509 and it was working fine with simple mobile for almost a month then 3 days before payment was due the signal cut off and has an X on it!! I called simple mobile and they reset the service I took off battery and sim and still didnt work...I switched sim to a t mobile sim and it showed bars and got messages and then the signal bars were gone again! I called t mobile and they told me that they blocked it or deactivated it cuz customer did not pay...........does anybody have a solution????
So just tonight I keep having a screen appear on it's own called enhanced features. I keep hitting decline, but it keeps coming up while in the middle of doing other things. Anybody else have this issue, or how to make it stop?

can't really help you with this because I never see or hear about this features but would be helpful if you could provide your phone model and your cellphone provider.
T-mobile S6 Edge. This thing keeps opening even though I keep hitting decline! It is getting annoying!
Tmoblie variant here. I don't see this in settings or popup. Maybe it's an app you downloaded?
yeah, i'm using U.S. T Mobile SG6E right now too but never come cross of this popup.
I'm having the same problem as of an hour ago...5:30pm Eastern US time. Galaxy s6 32 gb on T-Mobile...nothing new downloaded.
Me too, just started about 11:30pm PST. Realllllly annoying.
Super annoying. Glad I am not the only one. I tried removing my Samsung account and that didn't help. If anyone figures out how to stop this please respond!
Happening here too. T-Mobile S6 Edge
use titanium to disable it then.
This is affecting non-rooted stock devices.
There isn't a clear thing to disable, anyway.
Edit: Mines gone away on its own
Edit 2: Nope. Still here.
Yeah, I'm not rooted so can't use titanium...
Not to mention, I don't know what is causing it to pop up...I wouldn't know what to disable.
Not rooted here and haven't seen it, I'm on international variant unbranded
Sent from my SM-G925F
Non-rooted t-mobile variant here. It just started for me last night and It is aggravating as hell.
I've declined it every time and I can't figure out how to permanently stop the madness.
Is there any one who has successfully disabled this after it started?
Still happening here...horribly annoying. Someone help!
Have you guys just tried to hit accept? Instead of decline.
And what happens when you hit the back arrow on the top left? Does it just take you back to the settings homepage?
I don't want to accept. Yeah, I've tried that back arrow and nothing happens expect it exits the screen.
Here is the link that goes to terms and conditions:

I am on an international version purchased in Hong Kong. Do not have the same pop up but do have other which are very annoying as well.

I own a Verizon Galaxy s9+ and A galaxy tab s3. For the past few months I've noticed strange things going on with my phone and for at least 6 months on my tablet. Even factory resets don't solve this. I feel like I've googled everything to no avail. I started to think I was just crazy, until the other day I went to add a new account to my phone, an email account, and noticed something strange under accounts. I don't see any abnormal accounts under "accounts" in settings, but when I click "add account" there is a strange icon with no title next to it, like its hidden, and it has the green circle next to it like its been added, but I can't click or see what it is. Please help! I used to be super nosey on my bfs phone and now wondering if he's had something on mine for a while as well?? Thank you!!

Hi , I'm not sure but I think maybe some spy app is installed on your phone : / . Check if your phone has Official firmware .
To do that , follow this video instruction :

First time I see something like that ...

A factory reset will not help with many spying apps. Best you can do is send the device back unless have an unlocked bootloader. Then you can format all partitions and add apps back one by one.
To be honest. If something is like this is needed. Then move on. The relationship was already dead.
Hi, so I recently bought a Galaxy A50. When I brought it home and started looking around through the apps and settings, I noticed somethings that sort of alarmed me. I'm such an incredible noob about all these sorts of things I really don't know where to start. I'm hoping someone here has answers or can point me in the right direction. I just wanted to add right off the bat that the sales people who sold the phone to me came off a little fishy in the store, so I was a little uneasy from the get go. I can elaborate if anyone's interested. One peculiarity that underlies this entire post is that while in airplane, it seemed that some things were still able to open/access the web.
First off, I took the sim card tray out, and it didn't look like the stock sim card tray I saw in Youtube videos. For starters, there's a circle in the second sim slot that's not in the stock sim tray from the video. It also differs from the stock sim tray in the video in that there appears to be metallic bits at the end. As a precaution, I taped up the second slot and put it back in the phone. The odd thing is, when I took the sim card tray out again after putting the tape on, it there were indents/impressions in the tape right where the circle is. This is the video I used as a reference for a stock sim card tray: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RprD9McCwc4

Second, there's an app called SIM Card Manager that doesn't appear in the apps menu. It only appears if you search for it. The permissions it has seems pretty gnarly. But you can only see the full permissions if you click the 3-dots. At first blush, it has no permissions.
,
,
Third, the configapk app was also a little fishy. From what I gathered, configapk tells the phones which apps to autoinstall as part of the carrier/manufacturer setup. The weird thing is, when I click disable and confirm the disable, I get a weird popup asking if I want to replace the app with the factory version.
,
Does anyone have any idea what's going on? There's some other minor issues I won't waste your time with unless you think this is a sign of something. How do I dig deeper? Thank you all so much for any info you can offer.
EDIT: I figured out how to do images.

After getting more familiar with the site, this may not have been the best place to put this. Somehow I missed the giant Developers only warning in the title. I will ask a mod to move.
