I can confirm that. Just got my replacement yesterday due to a shattered screen. I am so disappointed now. I HATE not being rooted and HATE Verizon for being the dough bags they are about it.

The internal SD is Ext4 formatted, meaning it is impossible to mount as removeable storage without root. Though I tried anyways. Doesn't mean Ubuntu doesn't see it. So I tried a few things to reassign permission for the drive. Wound up formatting the "drive" aka internal SD

What exactly you want with this thread? If your digitizer is broken, buy another and replace it
Sent from my MB860
Try this link. It's a weird fix that might work. If not you'll just have to buy a new digitizer and replace it.

Highly doubt it. Atrix 4G is known for having issues with the digitizer. I myself have a dead stripe vertically too. Let us know how it goes tough.

Same here. I upgraded to a new phone. I was hoping I would be able to stick with Motorola, but nope.
At some point I'll probably drop $30 on the new digitizer and try to resurrect it.

Couple of question:
1) Did you replaced the digitizer yourself?
2) Where you bought it?
3) Was it hard to replace?
4) How much it costed?

The digitizer is super easy to replace.
I used ifixit.com's teardown and was able to figure out everything I needed. In fact I was actually replacing a water damaged lcd but I had to tear the phone down in exactly the same way. 20 minute job for someone with almost no experience inside of electronic devices.
Does anyone know if someone is working on a possible root method for it, I'm dying to root again. Had to get a replacement device and came with the update already on it.
Thanks

They are working on it no ETA but they said they dont need anymore testers so maybe thats a good sign.

If its legit, then you got a killer deal. The cheapest GN2 that I've seen was $350 but it had a cracked screen. I see some for $200-250, but I am sure those are scams. The next time you buy a Verizon phone, call *611 and verify the ESN status before handing over money or trading phones. A legit seller will not mind at all.

That's what scares me lol. It has a 3300mah stock battery and it has pogo pins on the back so you can connect a flip case they sell that has a 1200mah battery built in. So 4500mah is pretty good but it doesn't beat the piece of mind of having a few charged batteries ready to go.
