Hello guys,
I ordered this phone from one of our major stores here in Romania-EUROPE after deciding that the mt2 is the best solution for me. I WAS REALLY amazed to find that it has KITKAT out of the box. I mean, before deciding to buy it I researched online and found out it came with Jellybean but for some reason this one came with KITKAT. Since then, I found out here are several models of the MT2. Found out mine was MT-L02. The box it came with looks WAY different then the one in the US.
I think this was made specifically for Europe, or some countries that uses slightly different frequencies. Does any1 else have the L02 ?? Will this get updated to KITKAT? I still don't know if there are any other differences...
Any information is welcome.

As you said, there are several models of the same phone. If you do some searching you can get the differences.
Did you mean to ask if it will be updated to Lollipop? (As you stated, it already has Kit-Kat.) Yes, it is supposed to be updated to Lollipop.

Thanks, yeah, I was referring to Lolipop. So weird some models have Kitkat while some only have JellyBean. I guess they all have the same hardware. Still dont understand why the choose to update only some when the ROM is already available, only some minor ajustments for every model i guess

Hi guys,
I just bought a Motorola Atrix 4G from Ebay. However I was wondering, what ROM should I use, since I live in the Netherlands?
I already noticed a few roms here, however, since I live in the Netherlands, I want to know which one I should use for the best performance within my country.
Can someone please advice me?
Thank you very much.
//update
Sorry I forgot to mention it's the cell phone from AT&T carrier. I already know where to unluck it, thanks to this forum!
I am really sorry if this is a dumb question, but I couldn't find anything on it on the forums for Dutch people. :S
You're welcome.

I apologize for Shaydar. That is an incredibly rude comment to make for absolutely no reason.
Make sure the ROMs are compatible with your network. I know that Canadian users were warned to avoid using certain ROMs at first.
However, I no longer own an Atrix, so you might need to some more research on the subject.

No problem, luckily there are some more decent folk around here. Oh well, I guess on every forum their are a few a..........
I never heard of a provider blocking a ROMs overhere in the Netherlands. But then again we are allowed a lot of stuff overhere, legalised soft drugs, red light district and so on. So I doubt it will going to block a custom ROM, but of course you never know.
So the ROMs, depending they aren't blocked, do work without problems with other countries, right? As a matter of fact, it doesn't matter what or who's ROM it is, the ROM itself doesn't provide the connection (phone/data/gps). Right?
Sorry if I misunderstood. Oh well; even if someone said it wouldn't work, it doesn't matter that much anymore, since the phone will arrive here within 2 days.
By the way, you returned the Atrix 4G? Didn't you like the phone or was there another reason?
I believe Canadian Atrix users have to use certain ROMs due to hardware compatibility. I'm no expert in Canadian Atrii but they've been waiting until very recently for an SPL that's compatible with their phones so I assume it's either compatibility between the ROM and the phone hardware (bootloader maybe?) or between the ROM and the network.
Sorry if I sounded rude.
All roms are just original firmware with skin and some mods.
Guess the guy sold his cell cause the bootloader was locked and some things like the real 4G, 1080p recording, and gingerbread are not yet available for the phone.
I am from france and all the roms avaible on this forum worked fine.
Got a preference for GreyBlur.
Enjoy your Atrix when you got it.
Mine cost me 425€ all costs in.

You purchased an AT&T phone so ant of the ROMs (greyblur, gingerblur, Gladiatrix) will work for you.

Okay thanks. After doing some researching I will be going to use the GladiAtrix2v4.2.3 (not themed) version.
Let's hope I manage to get it working properly.
On a sidenote; my phone didn't arrive yet.
One thing: don't be surprised when you don't see the earphones in the package.
At&T just don't provide them.... But there's a HDMI wire.... Weird choice...
And plug your phone to the wall-charger if it doesen't seem to boot.

Ah okay... I don't care much about earphones, though other people might. But thanks for the information.
Also thanks for the extra pointer regarding the wall-charger.
Darn... I also wanted to order the Motorola vehicle dock including rapid charger, but it seems they don't have that overhere yet or in my neighbouring countries. :S
Cleaned the thread, back on topic.
Simple question; is there a way to disable those annoying messages about updates?
I rooted and installed gladiatrix and it has been working perfectly since then. However I am not getting messages about installing an update (4.1.83.en.US).
I select "Install later" every time, however after 3 hours it's back and it's getting annoying. Or is the update safe to use on a rooted gladiatrix phone? If not, how can I disable these messages completely?
I know the Huawei S7 is a old version which on sale last year But i don't know the IDEOS S7.. Are they the same one? Or not, Which one is better? I think the IDEOS is better. I saw the SPEC. But,Their accessories are interchangeable it?

There are a few variants of the 'original' S7 and the more recently released S7 Slim. First has a resistive screen second has a capacitive.
It is rumoured that they are identical inside so any accessories (should they appear!) will work on both.
Just make sure you have Android 2.2.2 or above.
I really hope the slim gets accesories but the support from huawei is horrible so i wouldnt hold my breath
Sent from my IDEOS S7 using XDA App
I thought they were both the same? IDEAOS that is.. Only new one was the slim?
I was thinking about getting a Huawei tablet. They're relatively cheap and I'd think they'd be alright for general use. Was doing some research and they're different? Have they been rooted yet?
Yes, i rooted mine half an hour ago infact! I did a writeup sometime ago, however i cant post it due to low post count, or post links so info is lost!

Rooted and upgraded to Android 2.2.2 (Froy) they become a great tablet.
Unlocked ROM, flash enabled, 1gHz CPU unlocked, Apps2sd, more sensitive screen, OTG support for USB host, and cheap!
Can you tell me how you did it?
Hello,
I recently got an S7 Slim. It is a great device, especially for the price point. My only complaint is that the BB version does not come with an active SIM slot. Who knew?
Can you tell me how you rooted your Slim? I have tried oneclick z4 and universal and have not been able to get access.
Thanks

What do you mean? The BB version's SIM slot is fully active.
However the baseband radio firmware that ships with the device has SEVERE bugs that cause the cellular radio to fail in many circumstances. For me, the device only worked in towers with the same area code as my SIM.
The Froyo (2.2) ROMs had new baseband firmware that fixed most if not all of these problems. USA customers never officially saw them, but the Indonesian 2.2 ROM works well on our devices - look at joenilan's ROM in the Development section, it has a link to the Indo 2.2 update.
Edit: Sorry, ooops, missed that you had a Slim and not the original S7. Yeah, I don't believe the Slim has any 3G capability.
Thanks for the response, I also figured out how to root my device successfully! What should I do next?

Hi,
I've looked around the forums and haven't found an answer to that. I'm a complete noob concerning Android phones, so sorry if my question is silly (or already has an answer somewhere).
It's quite simple : I wanna buy a Huawei Boulder 8350 for my girlfriend. It's got almost the perfect offer for her as it seems to be very good for its price tag.
I just wanna know : is it possible to install newer Android versions on it ? It is advertised as a Froyo 2.2 phone, but it would be cool to put Gingerbread or even a newer droid version on it.
If yes, is it doable via a simple update on the phone or does it have to be "hacked" or something ?
Thank you very much.
Please ? Anyone ?

Hello nitwo,
For the moment, there is no new version of Android for this cell.
Some people have noticed that the u8350 is sold under the name of "Express from Sprint" with a gingerbread 2.3 version. But sprint is using CDMA and in europe we're using GSM. Maybe a port is possible.
Also, officialy there is no Android 2.3 for this cell, and some websites are reporting that we're never going to see an official 2.3.
Maybe, we're going to have a 2.3 version, but not officially. But, we need to wait for the community ...
Btw, for 45euros in france (with Bouygue cash back), this is a pretty nice phone.
Any news ?
Has anybody in here bought or used the Coolpad X7? I've been searching for a rom or rooting method for this phone and there's nothing.
Here is a link to the phone specs.

Eiahhh, I also have a Xiaomi Mi4 and in order to install Google on that I went into Xiaomi's store from the phone app and installed/searched for google installer. Maybe try that.
I don't have my phone yet, wonder what to expect of it. Hardware and software seems good, done a nice bit of research on it.
to buy or not to buy
I'm very interested in this phone. Love the form factor and OLED screen. The only thing I'm worried about is the support for the phone. Like you mentioned, we seem to be the first ones talking about it and there doesn't seem to be any information about rooting, ROMs or simply reviews by other people. I'm also wary after a similar-ish phone(umi zero) encountered LOTs of issues after people received them.
If someone could disprove my concerns then I would buy it instantly.
Well there is a coolpad site for support of the phone and I will have Warranty from oppomart where I bought it, but development seems to be nowhere to be found.
www.coolpad.com/en/service.html
Must be forums somewhere for this phone.....
meh
Think I'm going to get it anyways
Cool UI looks bearable but not that polished. Hopefully can find a way to root it.
@Rod, if you could post impressions once you receive yours, that would be fantastic.

Ordered the mediatek variant. Think the snapdragon sale was a scam...
Will receive in about 12 days...
The phone is also getting released in India so there has been a surge in interest from the indian phone reviewers.
Rooting the device doesn't appear to be a problem but like you said, there doesn't seem to be any ROMs for it.
Yeah I seen talk about the Snapdragon but never seen one or heard of it being built.
Hopefully when the phone gets over to India some Roms will come out. I hear coolui is supposed to be nice though, especially the 6.0 version that's coming soon
Found some more ino on this phone. I think this is firmware and usb drivers, but not sure til i get my phone next week to see what model it is.

Just found this site diearthelloverat. There IS a Snapdragon version, maybe not released from China yet.
http://www.coolpad.com/goods/3571.html
I actually did purchase the snapdragon version.
Will arrive in about 10 days.
Good for you. ?. I wonder what one got the better performance.....
Finally got my x7
Ordered the Snapdragon version. Has 800 not the rumored 801
2.7 gb of ram
Most importantly, Google Services doesn't work on the phone. That means I can't use Google Play Store, Gmail or Snapchat and any other apps that require Google Services.
Also, my sim card fails to register! At the same time, even though the language is set to English, large chunks of the phone is still in Chinese. The provided apps are also all in Chinese making management of the phone difficult. In short, unless I can find and flash the Indian Coolpad x7 rom(which has full english support and has Google Services), I can't use this phone and will have to return it.
I caution anyone looking into this phone. At least, don't buy the Snapdragon version...

I'm also interested in this. It is a Android One phone but this does not seem to imply being unlockable?
I've contact Nokia support a few days ago to ask if the official bootloader unlock will also be available for the 7.1. They replied (quite quickly) that they could not confirm an unlock will be available, only for 8 now, but that news about this would be coming soon.

I hope it is seeing how I'm planning on picking 2 of these up. I could see them not allowing it officially since the 8 is their flagship phone. I know HTC used to allow almost all of their phones to be unlocked. LG only allows their flagship devices to be unlocked, the V and G series. I so hope this isn't the case with Nokia.
EDIT: Spelling, sorry
This seems to suggest Kingroot works; can anyone confirm?

Looks like a generic guide, highly unlikely that it will work. The other method listed there needs an unlocked bootloader which isn't officially possible (yet?) and twrp.
