New HTC T-Mobile Wing & User

Hello everyone,
yes i am a new user and subscriber. i purchased the wing about a month ago and so far i like it, but there are some things that i need to address. first, there is a memory problem that from what i have read, is common. i have a 2Gig microSD and most of my videos are on there. i am using TCMP to play movies. i was wondering what to use to get the best speed and usability out of my wing. what is safe to delete to make this thing race. again, i am just getting into the terminology (kitchens, cookbooks etc.), so please bear with me. a quicky, how do i get to the registry? and does the iphone theme really work good for this phone?
thanks everyone for any help

I suggest a custom rom. The T-mobile stock rom is not very good. I'm currently using Open Touch 4.0 by TTRAN and im loving it!

I'm a new Wing user also. I've had mine for a few days and i'm absolutely clueless when it comes to the rom's and making your phone look completely different. I read a little, but to someone who doesn't know all that lingo.. it's like a foreign language somewhat.. lol. Not that bad, but you know what I mean. I'm sure i'll figure it out eventually, but as of now? I'm clueless. I was told I need to HARD SPL my phone or something and I have no idea what that means or how to do it, lol. I downloaded a few things and got them to work though. But like I said, that's it.

Follow instructions. I understand people don't want to potentially "break" their phone ... but this stuff is TOO easy. Don't be scared of it.

Yeah. Well I was gonna ask you for some help (you seem to like helping people and you seem to know what you're talking about), but I can imagine how many people do that. I know how it is to be asked how to do stuff when it's very easy to begin with. I've been an admin on online games and stuff, so that part I understand. There just seems to be so many things you can do to this phone and to most people, they probably have no idea where to begin.
I was able to download a few cab's and get them to work, which was cool. I have my Wing overclocked right now at 247 I believe. Then I have a few other nice things. I use the Palringo for AIM and that's nice. I can't wait to change the overall look though. I'm not just confused on how to do it in general, but i'm also wondering whether or not you're supposed to use certain .cab's with certain rom's and all that. Ya know?

Find out which rom your interested in using and you will usually find a faq and instructions on how to flash the rom on the first post. I use Open Touch and followed the instructions to the T on my first flash and had no problems. Like Duprade said it really isnt that hard. Dont let the big bold red messages scare you. The cooks are just covering their behinds just in case you miss an instruction and brick your phone.

islinx, whats overclock? you are in the same boat as i am (glad to have you). i have also installed some roms, but i am ready for the big facelift now. i will do some searching and try to find a cool & simple look. i ran across a "show your today screen" post, but i lost it. they had some really really nice ones. i'll check back later. thanks for all the posts.

Check the thread with all the .cab files and you'll find the download to overclock your phone.

Look up battery status to find what your looking for.

I will be home from my trip to MIAMI tomorrow ... so who ever needs help or questions answered, just catch me online and IM me and i'll give you a hand.

Doesn't matter anymore, lol. I deleted everything off the phone, put the plastic back on and i'm sending it back today. As much as I LOVED the phone, i'm not gonna keep it and feel like I got ripped off. I used a promotional code when I got the phone. That was the reason I was getting the phone at this point in time to begin with. If I wanted to pay the normal $300 for the phone + activation, I would of went to the store and got it THAT day. But I called over the phone with a promotional code to get the Wing for $100 after $50 rebate, free activation and a free bluetooth headset or car charger. The customer service rep. told me the promotional code was taken and I was all set. I'd get my phone within 4 days. I did get it 4 days later and yesterday I called them back just to make sure the promotional code took effect and I was getting some money back.
Long story short, I must of got transferred like 7 times on the phone and I was on it for about an hour. Nobody knew what to say and I had to explain my situation each time. The customer service lady basically lied to me because the promotional code all of a sudden isn't a working one. I've seen other people online use the same code and it worked for them. Recently too. Big surprise there. If I wasn't saving money for a new car in April, I would have kept the phone. But a couple hundred dollars makes a huge difference.
Thanks for your help anyway though.

Anyone else not to thrilled with their Atrix?

Maybe its just me but im not as impressed with my Atrix as i thought i would be. Before this i had a Nexus one and it seemed like it was much faster than the Atrix it just seems like its always lagging a little bit, i can really tell it when i unlock it because it will randomly stop before im done swiping my code. (if that makes since, hard to explain) I would use the Finger Print scanner but that took about 6 times to finally unlock the phone. Last but not least the flash light on the back. I use to use it all the time but now it doesn't work half the time. It will start flashing and dim untill it finally goes dead and doesnt work. It has like a yellow tint to it to. (not sure if that's normal)
Also the dock was a waist of 80$ Its not worth but maybe 10$ I cant even sync the phone up to the computer in it.

I am pretty much in love with mine... No lag, no random restarts, no troubles from the flash, zero problems. I am rooted and using GingerBlur 4.5 ATM. Maybe try modding it some.

i think we need a separate sub-forum for unhappy users. that way I dont have to read them
I think the Atrix is GREAT. I have owned it for a few months and at the same time bought and returned the HTC Inspire, SGS2 and the HTC Sensation. It beat them ALL IMHO. especially in battery life, sound quality and loudness, and general ability to run anything I install without a hitch. It is fast but not over-tuned (and lacking torque when it matters). For example, I play a lot of video and onyl the Atrix plays everything without a stutter. OK its camera isnt as good as SGS2, but its good enough. I like its screen the most of all the devices (its the birghtest, especially whites). Its the only device I feel I can rely on for an entire day without being near a battery charger.

..And the towers are too far apart and it doesn't play the song I want and one of the guys at the att store smells funny. Also Im on XDA but I'm not too sure how to search or ask questions so I guess I will rant.

As has bene documented countless times in this forum, the hardware is being suffocated by the software. That's why everyone anxiously awaits the bypassing of the bootloader, loading custom kernels and ROMs, and why many people are pressuring Motorola to set their phone free. Motorola promises late 2011, but some people have different timelines to take matters into their own hands.

No, mine is fast and has no lag.
Getting faster the more crap I put on it.

Exactly what goes through my mind when I see responses like that.
I'm in the same boat as you Sanbourne. Been having a lot of problems with my Atrix and I'm just about ready to get rid of it

I have used many phones, and I mean MANY. The atrix is the only phone that has finally made me say, wow. I don't see the problems your having and maybe the fact that its an assembly line phone you might need to replace it. I run 3d graphics without a hitch. Screen scrolling and unlocking is smooth as butter. Not to mention call quality, speaker, display, etc... It is by far a beast of a device. I have packed almost 40gb of info into this thing, have over 80 apps, including games, productivity and more. I am probably at any given time running 15 or more processes in the background and still, it takes it with no problem. These are phones here, and in a world where we rely less on what they do and more on how they do it and how they look we seem to forget that nothing comes close to what this phone has achieved in a power user standpoint. Keep that all in mind when you think the atrix isn't that great or impressive. Its your personal workhorse, its not a "pretty" phone or a "wow look at that phone!" its a, "nope, leave the laptop, I have everything I need right here"

I'm so tired of people *****ing about there phone. If I don't like it take it back. I love mine....fast as hell....tons of features..

You didn't ask any questions, there is not one single question mark in your whole post. You only posted to complain. This is a public forum if you dont want to hear my reply then you should post in a private forum. Instead you want me to read your lame ass post and copy/paste the information here for you so you dont have to do any work finding the answers yourself? YOU are the troll.

Same here and with Citrix Xen Desktop and the lapdock I can run a Windows XP session and use Excel/Word and all my other office software....
I don't understand about the flashlight...although I have read that some apps can burn out the led on a phone. Maybe you should take it in under warranty.
On the keypad..there is a delay if you are in the process of rebooting your phone. Otherwise entering the code is instantaneous. Fingerprint reader may take me two times..

Ive owned a moto backflip and htc aria before getting this phone and in my opinion, it feels like a better version of the motorola backflip

I'm pretty sure you're the troll. If you don't like the content of the thread (or can already tell you won't by reading the title), exercise some god damn willpower and DON'T REPLY. You're wasting everyone's time.

I came from a Vodafone UK Iphone 4 and got back to the states...I picked up the atrix after a BUNCH of research. I am really happy with it. So much I really havent even paid attention to upcoming phones.(thats how I gauge how much i really like a phone). it is kinda like being happy with your woman enough not to notice all the others out there.
The other thing to keep in mind is the version of Android isnt even supporting ALL that this phone can do. So it really is future proof for a while. Gingerblur has made things smooth as can possibly be also.
give it some time bro

OP, I disagree with you. I recently baught a nexus one for my wife, $270 brand new. Although I love its build quality, my Atrix is MUCH faster (with Go launcher EX). And yes, even the Nexus one with its 1 Ghz CPU lags after a day of use.

Great post skillz. +1

Will agree with OP... It's nice but nothing takes advantage of the dual cores it seems.
Live Wallpaper is laggy (with launcher pro or motoblur), the screen takes forever to turn on, it seems every other previous flagship device is getting updates (It's pissing me off!)...
Next time I'm definitely going with HTC, if I can't find a good HTC I'll opt for samsung, but never again for Motorola. Or AT&T for that fact.

Disable - Tap To Click - Not the entire trackpad. Please help...

Hi I'm sure this is been asked before. I have searched for threads on this and there are a couple but they are mostly a couple of months old. From what I can gather in the 3.2.1 or maybe 3.2 Asus killed this feature to disable it in the Kernel? So there was an app floating around that would let you do it but now it doen't work. Am I missing something. Tap to click is the only thing keeping my tranformer from being a full fledged netbook replacement. I have tried and tried but I can't get use to tap to click. I ten to jump between mouse and keyboard a lot so having to enable and disable the entire trackpad with the shortcut button just doesn't work for me. Any help would be great. Anyone know if maybe Asus will add a disable tap to click option in ICS?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk

The guy just asked disabling tap to click. Some of you TF owners are so defensive lol.
To answer, the functionality was there before the most recent updates cannot do it. I too find the tap to click very annoying when I'm trying to take notes.

Op, hopefully they bring that feature back, I also don't like the all or nothing operation of the track pad. its nice being able to just disable the tap to click component and still use the track pad without moving the cursor around constantly while typing.
Sent from my Infuse... Love it!

I do understand your points, out gets old hearing the same crap, complaints etc... But, I tend to just ignore them and move along where you tend to antagonize to each there own.
On a side note, there is nothing wrong with trying to consolidate your equipment. In many cases the TF with the dock is getting pretty close to a netbook replacement. Asking these questions and striving to challenge these devices to be better than they are currently will be the catalyst that will eventually make them a netbook replacement and possibly a laptop/desktop replace.
after all, forums such as this are meant to seek advice and info as much as give it. but to each their own.
Sent from my Infuse... Love it!

Thanks for the useful reply... it really is a shame Asus has dropped the ability to turn this off... its kind of a waste of a nice trackpad.
As for the other poster who apperently has nothing better to do then go around insulting people I'm sorry you feel this is something you have chosen as a second job from the sound of it. The point of XDA is to ask questions and hoepfully get an answer. Usually I will search and search for an answer before asking something that has already been covered to death. To answer your question I DO prefer a netbook but I would like it to run Android. It's a shame that nothing like that exists so the Transformer is the next best thing. The trackpad was something I was wondering if I could find a quick answer to and maybe consolidate equipment as mentioned above. But hey if your really that bored and insulting me makes you more of a man for your girlfriend by all means go right ahead. I work in Hollywood for a pretty huge entertainment show so I have developed pretty thick skin. I choose not to get an iPad by the way because I don't want to be another sheep like everyone else that works in this business. But to each their own... To the poster who give me the real info thanks again. I hope maybe Asus will add this function to ICS. To the other guy... Happy Holidays.

Apologies. Lately I've found myself more and more bothered by whiners. I used to ignore them. But its getting harder and harder to ignore them. I guess with the latest whines about the kindle fire (only 7 inch, no cameras, no market... exactly everything amazon told people they would get with the fire) I'm getting this much closer to a breakdown.

No worries brother. We all have bad days.

Can someone make a video to demonstrate...

Can someone please make a video to demonstrate the random reboot and boot loop problem happening on a completely stock, factory resetted Transformer with no 3rd party apps?
Not saying you guys have to prove anything but if we have this kind of video and post it everywhere, it will garner much more attention and maybe Asus will do something quicker.

Just the fact that you are posting this tells me that NOBODY will be able to create a video that you would accept as "proof". Besides, how are we supposed to videotape a "random" reboot that may take up to 24 hours (or more) to show up (and again, at RANDOM). The video would have multiple cuts and would be impossible to authenticate.
I think we know what a reboot or a bootloop look like... And we've sent lots of logs to Asus as real "proof".
Trust me, Asus knows there is REALLY a problem. We don't need to spend countless hours trying to capture a random reboot on tape.
Give me a break.
And before anyone calls me an anti-asus troll, please don't get me wrong - I love their products and nobody else makes a comparable tablet/dock combo! They release very frequent firmware updates which I also love! However, their response to this particular issue has been less than stellar.

Sure, Ill record a ~78h long video (roughly the frequency of my random reboots so far).
Just buy me a bigass HDD and Ill email the recording to you. Then I want to you watch every second of it in one go, no fast-forwarding or skipping.
... seriously though, a clip of a random reboot doesnt help the developers ONE BIT.
"right, so the device restarted... lets fix it! *searches code for entry "random restart"* oh look at that, no hits..."
There is a reason software uses logfiles. If you'd ever looked at one you'd know they provide a million times more information than a video clip will ever do.
Theres a saying, "a picture says more than a thousand words". But in coding its the exact opposite, a picture is more or less useless.
ASUS knows about this issue. But fixing something thats completely RANDOM and doesnt even happen on ALL devices makes it a ***** to pin-point in the code.
If you want to help asus - send them your logcats. Not a 78h long, useless, video.

Actually, Asus has one (mine) at their repair facility. My Transformer died (endless reboot to the eeepad screen) which nothing would stop, not connecting to ac, not holding the power button, not holding power and volume down. It was rma'd and returned with a factory restored image of ics, nothing on it that didn't come from Asus. I turned it off, and it would not turn back on. This is a completely stock tablet, never rooted, no 3rd party apps, heck I never even entered my Goggle Account. And it was working fine before ICS. They've had it since March 11 and have asked me to describe what happened a couple of times. I told them to fix it, turn it off for an hour or 2, and try to restart it. So, a totally stock tablet, fresh ICS from Asus, no 3rd party apps, and it won't work. If I ever get it back I'll let you know what they claim they did.

Hm what makes you think you would have to record the entire duration.
It can be cut. You can start recording when it's boot looping. Just show your app drawer or list of apps in your settings afterwards.
Hah I can't believe some people in this thread thought you would have to show the whole duration. It can be cut. It can be fast forwarded.
Just needs to show the boot loop or random reboot happening AND show the list of apps afterwards, not before.
I remember seeing a similar video for Prime. Kinda surprises me that nobody posted a video yet and it's been over a month since we got ICS and all the issues.

In case you haven't read your own thread, you are the only one who thinks this is a good idea.
Look, as I remember, you said that you reboot your device at least once a day, so how do you even know if you have the problem or not?
My problem is this - you come on here acting like everyone that has the problem, has the problem because they did something wrong. Since you don't believe you have the problem, you assume that everyone who does have the problem is doing something wrong and that full wipe will fix it when some of us have already done that many time to no avail.
Instead of leaving us be to resolve our issues, you ask folks to waste time making videos to prove it to you!
Why are YOU being so defensive? You are the one asking for proof - not me!!
I keep telling myself I'll ignore you, but your reasons are so lame, that I can't help myself!!!

lol I know I am not getting random reboots because I constantly monitor my tablet for random reboots. I run an app that displays uptime on my home screen and I never empty out my recent apps list.

Nope. I've even said that factory reset doesn't work for everyone. I came to that conclusion long time ago. People are experiencing the problems in different ways. Factory reset is just one of the solutions that have been proven to work for some people. Wakelock is another solution but that also doesn't work for everyone. So what's wrong with suggesting what have been proven to work for the large majority of people who fixed their issues? Sounds like it's the logical step in troubleshooting. People can't know whether it will help them or not before actually trying it.
I suggest it depending on what the person has said in his post. If he said he had tons of apps and did OTA update without wiping, I suggest it because I genuinely believe it will at least alleviate the problems. Pretty sure any reasonable person would think the same.
I do have a hard time believing ridiculous claims though, such as the one by Knoxploration, who says both his and his wife's TFs have random reboots and boot loops even after factory reset, running on stock with no apps. What an amazing coincidence that they both have the most extreme version of the problem.

I think there is already enough attention on the issue from Asus.
There is even a thread created by Asus employee to sort this issue. Its sticky on this very forum.

Luckily I dont have the issue, so I haven't been following the thread.
You can try the new kernel for the tf101 3g (version 9.2.2.3), is said to adress the issue. You can flash guevor kernel test 7 on non-3g TFs.

Just accept the fact that we are quite many who has an RR/SoD'ing TF101 and then accept the fact that we are quite upset with Asus?
Oh crap... I just fed a troll...

Video of reboot to freeze
Here is a video of a reboot to a freeze I cobbled together, on an B70 with ICS (4.0.3) :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LZ5Q-kUSq4&feature=youtu.be
[replaced original video(s) with a more stable video of reboot to freeze].

About the RR and SOD problems, a lot of people solved their issues using the lastest kernel from Asus (9.2.2.3). It was actually release for TF101G.
Its not official yet on TF101, but there is a build from guevor here (test8) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1565519
Reportedly is working very good.

They see me trollin'.

Better than a video, would be to show the logs. And there are logcats of the reboot event, there are a team of devs that had those logs.

Samsung Galaxy S4 Demo Unit

Hey there you guys!
(Optional reading)
I am all new in this forum, and I have a few questions about a Demo unit I have gotten my hands on.
Before anyone, asks me how I can have a Demo unit, and if it's stolen, then allow me to explain. Even though you only have my word for it, I hope it is enough.
I work at a electronic store, here in Denmark. (Elgiganten)
Anyway, we had a Samsung Galaxy S4 Demo Unit, in the store.
I was told by my boss to throw in the trash,I asked if I could take it home, which he allowed me.
(Actual post)
Anyway!
What this post is about, Is that I have a few questions about it.
I have been googling and checked out this forum, about the Demo units.
The can't ever be "real" phones ever. They simple miss the modem and antenna hardware.
I don't think that I quite understand, whether it is possible to flash the phone with original/modified firmware.
As far as I have understood, a lot of demo units have been F***ed up, and ended up with no Wifi options and stuff.
I was wondering, if there is a known way to flash it?
And what's I am suppose to do exactly?
I was wondering if I bought a replacement motherboard and threw in it, would work?
Like one I can buy on Ebay?
I'm sorry for the long post, and the loads of question.
I hope that you guys can help get it up and running properly, whether it is without the calling compatibilitys or not
So thank you very much!

So it's not really a phone, it's a 5 inch tablet?

I'd be hard pressed to believe that Samsung went to a lot of trouble to write an entirely different rom for it. So I'd guess that it's got the same rom as the normal 9505
But I can see where trying to flash a rom it it could go badly. So using odin to root it might be risky. It also might work flawlessly with ease. There is only one way to find out...and sometimes in life you've got to roll the dice.
I would also think you could easily toss a different motherboard in it. You could probably add the radio antenna too. I'd also be hard pressed to believe that Samsung made an entirely different plastic housing just for the demo. So it's probably got all the space and screw holes and all tha tstuff to hold the radio antennea.
So you can either use it as a wifi table as it sits now, with touchwiz, or take a chance and see if you can root it. You didn't pay anything for it so there's not too much risk. That said, how much custominzation do you need for what's probably going to end up being a tablet for the bathroom? It'll probably play games fine, browse the web fine, etc. Do you really need to flash a custom rom to it for those purposes?
I might just leave it alone and enjoy the free wifi device. Makes a great MP3 player / Pandora streamer / etc too.

Thanks for the answer!
I would be delighted with it, using it as a tablet in my home.
The thing, is the Galaxy resets everything every 15 minutes, or reboot.
Which is obvously damn annoying.
And that is why, I am asking these questions

Well that's stupid. Maybe it is a different rom afterall....
If its not usable now then you really have nothing to lose by flashing a rom in odin.
Sent from your phone. You should be more careful where you leave that thing.
