Are you on stock 4.1.83, or are you rooted?
If rooted, do you have Titanium Backup installed, or anything like Bloat Freezer?
Have you tried just rebooting?
More info please.....................and go slap your friend!..............HARD!

I have the exact same problem, i tried flashing the stock sbf, and also a factory reset but still have the same problem. I had to contact AT&T and i'm getting a replacement phone soon.

Apps like Titanium Backup, Root Explorer, Bloat Freezer, etc. all require root access, so if you are not rooted, that's a moot point. Are you on AT&T? If so, you could try taking it to an AT&T store, or call customer support. Should have no issues as you haven't messed with your phone from stock.

I was having the same BT issue where it wouldn't turn on. I went through all sorts of methods to fix it and finally got it working ... been working perfect ever since. Off the top of my head, I can't recall what it was that I did, but I'll think on it and try to repost my solution. If I'm not mistaken, it was a 3rd party app that was causing the issue, but I'm not 100% on that.
Do you happen to have a banking app installed? I know that when .83 came out, the banking apps quit working and I did a work-around to fix it. I believe that was the issue. I uninstalled my fix and the banking apps. I've since reinstalled them and used Motorola's certificate installer. BT still works well.

No I dont any banking apps on the phone

Banking apps shouldn't have affected BT. Didn't on my phone. The banking app issue was a blank screen after login.

I had a issue where I couldn't turn my wifi back on (1.8.3)
When you toggled it on, it would show scanning, then turn back off. I had to flash sbf 1.2.6 to fix it, then OTA update again

Kool thanks much appreciated

No, the banking apps weren't the issue...it was more likely the mucking around that I did with the certificates that created any issue. Perhaps it was just coincidental as it happened at the same time and I resolved it after removing the certificates and banking app. In any case....mine now works flawlessly, albeit I'm not completely sure what I did to resolve it.

Nah, you have to buy the new OS on the Mac App Store for $30. Great deal in my opinion compared to Windows 7 Prices ($200+ jeezus!)
@Korey, what's 10.7.2? Isn't it the dev release of the new update or something?

I'll start by saying I've been Snow Leopard as long as I've had the Epic.
You trying to connect through a Cinema Display? When I connect my Epic to the monitor (24 inch with 3 usb ports) it never mounts, but if I connect it straight to the MacPro it does. Never been able to figure that one out, but I've found that to be the case. Real PITA because all of the USB ports on the MacPro and both Cinema Displays are used - although one of the ports on the display is used on a handy charging cable for the phone.
That said I've never had trouble mounting on Windows, straight to my PC or through a hub.
I think it's just a problem between Macs and our phone.
Sidenote - sometimes when I connect my Epic to the Cinema Display it causes a freak out and the Mac says a device was trying to draw too much current so it disconnects the hub inside the Cinema display which disconnects all connected peripherals, the webcam, and the speakers until I disconnect the screen's USB cable from the back of the tower and reconnect. Anyone have a clue how to prevent this?

Glad to hear it's not just happening to me. Hoping Apple pushes out an update.
If anyone figures out how to mount their phone please reply in this thread.
Thx!

You guys had any luck getting this working? I have the same issue ... Running Cyanogenmod 7 on my HTC Desire.

Same here as well. although. I noticed the my Mac Book pro that gave with 10.7 doesn't read my epic as a mass storage device. But when I plug it into a friends mac book pro that was upgraded from 10.6 to 10.7 detects mass storage just fine.
I downloaded, and installed a update for Kies, but that didn't seem to do anything either ( i have rebooted yet, will up date this post if it works after a reboot.).
If anyone figures this out please update this thread.

Fix
Shutdown you Mac, boot into safe mode. Press and hold shift key after the chime when you power on your mac. You will know that you're in safe mode because only programs that came with Lion will boot. Fully boot into Lion, then restart back into regular mode. Connect your phone, turn on USB mass storage mode. Should be working now. Apparently the issue has to do with corrupt driver cache.

$30 every year vs. $250 every 5 years, both companies are about the same just one releases quicker and gets ya for small chunks when your not looking

[Q]How does mirroring works?

Hallo there people,
I've got one question. I'm wondering how hdmi mirroring works on our atrix. I mean do we need the dock or just we plug the cable? Im asking cause when i plug the cable and i choose mirroring from the drop down menu nothing happens. I looked at build.prop, i enabled hdmi mirroring but nothing happens. I tried with Darkside and Aura roms too.
Do i miss something? Do i need the dock? All answers are welcome.
Thank you in advance!

you prolly need to do the hdmi without dock
mod google search it and that should work also in about phone in settings what is ya webtop version
if it says unknown you need to fastboot flash
the webtop.imgv1 but make shure u on at&t atrix or the ones it supports

If all you did was turn it on, why do you have a camera app icon on your desktop?

i have no idea
i turned it on, it looked like that,
and the top notification bar is some kind of co-ordination thing
idk ><

That's not the default wallpaper either. It looks like ASUS loaded their Transformer OS on your device just to watch you sweat.
Through your front-facing camera that is. Destroy it, while you can.

Yeah that looks like stock Asus wallpaper on tablet mode.

what should you do with it now? I thought it was not responsive so.... nothing?

Lol, you should try to get it working
Install the USB drivers / android sdk, boot up the bootloader, unlock it, boot CWM, flash the 4.1 stock ROM from Google, don't flash the recovery or root it or anything, just the stock ROM. Reboot, she if she works...
If so, go back into bootloader and relock it.
Even if that all works, still take your replacement and send that one back, cause it sounds messed up, who knows what else could be wrong in there.

Dude, dump the ROM and send it to the Devs. It might have some really useful stuff in it.

It looks like you can plug a micro-usb cable directly into it without a cradle.....is that the case?

Very cool. Does it actually have WiFi and GPS as well? And I think the site mentions a 5MP camera (as opposed the GG's 1.3MP). Can you verify this as well?
Starting to sound like the watch the GG should have been.

i changes time format from 24 to 12 it made watch boot loop any ideas??

this is the Mimi W2, right?
http://www.mimi-hk.com/product.php?id_product=23&id_lang=1
seems to me this is more of a U8 clone, it has the same mic/speaker implementation (phone audio is always on the speaker of the watch, you have to switch manually)
also, the Smartwatch2A.apk that can be downloaded for notifications looks/works exactly like BTNotifier that comes with the U8
and one of the U8 firmware updates changed the icons from black/white to color...

Any update on this smartwatch? ROM? Anybody else using it? Can you read email text, not just notification from your phone on this watch?
The reason I'm asking because I found a similar smartwatch for $70 shipped free from GearBest now: http://www.gearbest.com/smart-watches/pp_70658.html - very tempted!!! MIMI W2S doesn't have camera, uses your phones camera for remote, but everything else is similar and very Gear-like
