Hey guys. I'm still kind of new to Android. I've had a couple, but always found something wrong, so I returned them. Im really liking the OS coming from iPhone. I recently returned my Atrix and bought an at&t N1. So far I love it. Its running 2.3.1 on CM6.
But I would like some mod suggestions? Roms? Anything you other N1 users really like?
Also, is there a way to increase the volume? Both headphone and ear piece? Its kind of hard to hear those that are soft talkers.
Thanks guys!

every once in a while I try out a sense rom and quite enjoy it but I keep coming back to cyanogenmod for it's speed, stability and customizability(that's probably not a word but you know what I mean). I was the exact same way with my old htc magic. If you want to try sense, check out the Desire HD port. there are TONS of really nice features in sense. Also, some people really like the MIUI rom. Personally, I'm not a fan because it seems like it's trying to copy iOS too much but a lot of people love it.
I think I did read something about a volume hack once but I never tried it out myself. never really had any problems.. then again, I very rarely use my phone as an actual phone
Welcome! Got my 1st N1 a couple of weeks ago...it beats the crap out of the newer phones IMHO. CM7 is running great for me.

I agree. Still a better phone than the new ones. With the help of a friend, I just flashed CM7. The only force close I got was you tube.
I would still like to find some thing about the volume.
And anything about using an OC kernal on CM7?

the first phone I've seen that I would get over the nexus one is the evo 3d
and it's still missing a few things that the nexus one has..
it's a shame
anyway, you should be able to play around with dsp manager to get things a bit louder I think
N-1
I have a Droid X I have had for about 6 mos. While my DX has GB and has benchmarked at 2137 I miss my N-1! Don't get me wrong I love my DX but that N-1 was sweet! Keep it! It isn't a developer phone for nothing. I miss my Nexus One!
Welcome to XDA and the awesome Nexus1...Happy Flashing!
Im currently typing this on my Atrix, patiently waiting the arrival of the at&t N1 that I just ordered. I feel like somekind of prisoner carrying this Atrix. Can't wait to be free.

Your nexus one
The nexus one is an awesome phone. But as everyone know it lacks on board storage space. This will frustrating when you are trying to load that final app and you are down to your last 20 mbs and you keep getting the Memory low error message.
A lot of roms have claimed to address this but I have tried them all and have had an N1 for about a year. CyanogenMOD is awesome but CM7 really has issues and you will fall in love with some of the features but still feel as if you need something more. I use Super AOSP with my N1. It allows me to have APPS2SD capability that was fairly easy to setup and works flawlessly. I had over 100 apps installed and my phone still showed over 160MB of storage available on the phone. I never had a force close or any problems at all really. So yeah in my opinion the N1 is great, but with a few hacks it can be excellent.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=966635
Currently I am using an HTC Thunderbolt and the phone is phenomenal as well but the Nexus One is still truly a great phone. Even after being out for a year there are still phone trying to keep up with it. If only the N1 was available for Verizon I would have never made the switch.

I know that exact feeling. I loved about 98% of my Atrix. But I know it will never gets roms like the N1. It's amazing how well it runs for being as old as it is. I really hope Google gets with HTC again for their next Nexus. I wont buy a Nexus S. Enjoy your N1 when you get it.
CM 7 isn't perfect, but I like it so far. I'll probably flash something different in a couple days.

So I'm having a couple issues with CM 7 and since I don't have 10 posts yet, ill post here.
None of my e-mails in gmail are coming through. I have auto on, but they aren't getting pushed. I have to go into my gmail app and high refresh to get my e-mails.
Also, on my last rom, push notifications worked for Facebook. But they aren't on CM7.
Also my battery life seems to have gotten worse since the other 2.3 rom I had.
Any suggestions? Thanks!

First day with N1, reboots just after entering PIN.
Just got my first Nexus One. Wow, is it a sleek phone, and the speed increase... mmhmm. A marked difference to my now sadly departed X10i.
Came direct with 2.3.3. (it's been used as a display piece, but otherwise completely new). But then the trouble started. Constant reboots right after entering the PIN and when everything should start. Boom! Back to the X-screen and most of the time, a reboot, but sometimes it gets completely stuck there.
Succeeded in making a factory reset in the 10 seconds of working time that the phone gave me... After which things seemed to go well. Until it appeared again, again, again.
I'd re-flash, but I'm not familiar enough with the procedures. Which file should I recover with using the "update.zip"? (No custom stuff for me, this is still my first day with the phone). IF a pre-rooted version is available, I'd go for that, but if not, the stock one should do as well.

You can reflash your N1 to 2.2 with the instructions from wiki. After that you should get back to 2.3.3 with OTA update.
I am excited that it is the last few weeks of me having the Droid X, due to me getting the Bionic. I have to say I'm pretty sure I got a lemon. I have had nothing but problems with it the last 6 months. Constant rebooted freezing and having to restore ALOT. I might try and put in an insurance claim because they are giving out the X2 in place of it. What do you all think I should do? And keep in mins I would probably get a trade in cerise for the x2 towards my new phone.

I was bored with my droid x for the last few months then all of the sudden CM7 and MIUI and it has really made me fall back in love with my X. I def agree wait and read reviews and see how community likes the Bionic if something is truly wrong with your X get it replaced it still a good phone

That sounds horrible. I haven't experienced that at all and I've had the X since it was released. Have you rooted and installed ROMs and/or themes? If so, you might have messed something up in the process.
If you are rooted, have you tried SBFing to see if that fixes everything?
Finally us Brits are getting some official gingerbread yummyness. Although will be tough to change from CM7.

ICS just around the corner and GB is STILL not out!
Hopefully it will come with a new radio which can sort out my random battery drain problems.
Despite trying various radios, my battery seems to lose 3%+ per hour when sleeping so with very light use, a charge only lasts a little over 24 hours. I can only assume the problem is the radio as running Watchdog doesn't indicate that there are any rogue apps. I've tried recalibrating the battery to no end either.
As a matter of interest, which radio are other UK users trying at present? I'm currently on 1.77.30.

Exactly, ICS will be out for AT&T before we even get GB here in the UK. I reckon it could be a while yet as our respective service providers have to add all of their bloatware to it.

I haven't got a branded atrix so that shouldn't be a problem for me. But I don't know what I'm doing yet. Because if I restore my stock atrix I could potentially lose root and my unlocked bootloader. Meh the decision .....android is a God damn disease.....must have the new update!!!!! Lol
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
To be fair Orange dosent appear to have overly bloated it (for a change) Orange Wednesday and an account checker, however seeing as that is available on the market I cant see why it would be an issue, the only other thing I can see is the addition of AP's etc, but again that should all be automatic anyways.......
Orange always claim they need to test it with their network etc but I recon 2 or 3 weeks after it's released we ought to get it *he hopes*
i find it puzzling that the milestone 2 which is older than the atrix is getting the gb update at the same time. Great news for both of our communities. But time and time again...what the hell are Motorola doing with all there time???? lol
I put a question to Motorola via the facebooks, and they said the update will come out at the same time for orange / t-mobile branded phones as it does for unbranded phones.
Of course given the delays to date I suspect the mid-November date will slip, but we shall see
I've got a Tmobile UK Atrix which I've rooted , unlocked the bootloader etc....
Is it possible to get this phone back to a state where it can be upgraded or will I need to wait until somebody does their magic and creates a CWM image to flash?
I'm really unsure how this works as I've seen many warnings about NOT reverting to Froyo if running GB.
Has anyone tried this?
I'll believe it when see it -Moto talk a lot a Kak.
Roll on the Nexus & I can dump the Atrix

If it's a gingerbread rom flashed through recovery you should be fine. Its just the SBF file to be wary of. If you've flashed a gingerbread SBF don't flash a froyo SBF. or you will get a hard brick.

For sure you will loose Root access but you can get it again under Gingerbread.
Regarding the Bootloader I believe that it's a little bit different and I guess when you have unlocked it you can't go back!
If someone more confident can confirm?

FYI:
Retail update has been released today in the UK, and (if Motorola are to be believed) T-Mobile UK and Orange UK updates will be released within a week.
OTA servers are apparently running behind but updates can be updated using Motorola's Software Update software.
https://supportforums.motorola.com/message/512793#512793
with luck Orange will have a working copy of "Your Orange" this time too....bloody thing tells me to update then I get "Package not signed" and their CS department are hopeless
Next week is better late than never I suppose
Orange UK update released via Motorola Software Update tool (v45.31.0)
I'm updating now..
Thanks for the heads up - I've just updated my sons Atrix & all went OK.
Seems to run fine on GB 2.3.4 although only tried for an hour or so as it's gone back in the box ready for Xmas
After all of this I have decided to sell my atrix....even bought a play and work kit. But its just not doing it for me. Lol
I appreciate everything all the developers do. But the forums just seem so quiet, even compared to my old desire, that forum is s**t hot still. LOL. It is a shame though as this phone had some amazing potential.

I know how you feel. The Atrix forum, I felt, was never the most helpful of places. When I had my htc DHD, that forum was much more helpful.
Anyhow onwards & upwards - My Nexus came the other day so my Atrix is gather dust, probably chuck it in the bin shortly.
Well I'm going to miss this section of the forums. A few weeks back I started having random reboots, then WI-FI error when trying to turn it on. I had been changing ROMs a lot, and I had read about the problem of the chips frying, but had to give it one more try. I successfully RSD flashed back to official ATT firmware,and for some reason it worked...for about three days.
I picked up a really good deal on an almost new HTC Vivid. Not near the devolpment going on for that phone,but enough to make it fun.
If anyone needs an Atrix with fried WI-FI chip but good everything else get in touch
Out of curiosity, what did you pay for your vivid?

Of course that's for dev only. At the moment, only dev models can flash anything. We would need safe strap/boot strap in order to flash.

I'd be more than happy with safestrap at this point. I mean this phone was 99% unrootable until Dan started getting back in the game. So M user's should take anything they can get at this point.
Plus if we were able to get plenty of workarounds for the original Razr's then I don't see why dhacker, p3, hash, etc, won't be able to do it for the M.
Got a white one on the way w00t w00t.

Aside from the original Galaxy Note, I've never wanted a phone more than the M, due to it's size, incidentally the same reason I wanted the Note originally lol.
Just can't give up my S3. But as you can see from my signature, I love Moto phones so maybe I'll end up with the Razr M HD or something lol.

Played with the M extensively, (my Lieutenant has one), and I'm the go to guy for all rooting and romming needs at work. His has some considerable lag and I can't help but chalk it up to the 1gb of RAM vs the 2gb on the S3. Touchwiz runs smoother and pushing a much larger screen and about 400 more megabytes worth of crap built into Sammy's rom.
W/ that said Moto has my heart and up until my S3 the Razr was the best phone I had owned. Hell I got my parents two Maxx's to get them started on their venture into smartphones. They love them.
Will be interested to do radio strength comparisons. My S3 was pulling better reception than my LT's M, side by side and where mine would still be in 4G, his was in 3G. This seems hit or miss w/ the M's, kind of like the VZW Gnex's. My Gnex was always rock solid on radios but my g/f's Gnex was horrendous. Well we went through 4 Gnex's til we got one that wouldn't drop a signal, sitting right next to mine w full 4G. (Have a tower literally 100ft from my apartment.)
Which brings me to my next point. This whole radio thing w/ the M has baffled me b/c that and build quality are what has always won me, along with others over when it comes to Moto. Locked BL's suck but radio strength and quality mean the world to me. I'm a bit superstitious and my g/f has the most awful luck w/ phones, (i.e....went through 4 Gnex's, her first 4S wouldn't activate on VZW and it was brand new, had to get a replacement, her RAZR charging port got jacked up and she's gentle with her phones, had to get a replacement, we bought her a used RAZR a month ago to leave the 4S behind, and this one wouldn't pull 4G at all....flashed every radio I could....I'm tellin ya, this girl has no luck w/ phones and I pray we actually get a good M, else I think I'm gonna tell her ass to just stick with dumbphones.

I'm pretty sure safestrap is like a recovery for locked boot loader devices. Since we are unable to change the boot img, we must work with that kernel and boot IMG. With safe strap, you have rom "slots" where you can install a system on a SD card (I think, haven't used it). If anyone has a better explanation/more details, help would be nice

It's basically like creating an extra partition. It bypasses the original startup by booting into the actual Safestrap boot screen. From there you have the option to go straight to recovery or do nothing and let the phone load into whatever partition you have active (safe side or non safe side).
Usually safe side is where you custom rom is and what you boot up to. Non safe side is your factory image. W/ bootstrap it would basically overwrite your factory image while piggybacking onto the factory bootloader. Safestrap was invented to prevent bricking in the event that fastboot files weren't available or a serious brick occurs.
Once you get really good, you can figure out ways to flash a custom rom on your non safe side (factory image side) and then another custom rom on your safe side. Virtually having dual boot on two custom roms lol.
I can't wait for some custom business on my M. I have been surprised with how much I love this device. My buddy has an S3 and I wouldn't trade for nothing. I just miss my ability to flash roms and tweak like my og razr.

I had an S3 for 2 months before trading for an M. Your findings are pretty much similar to mine. Radio seems a bit weaker than my S3 was. Also my S3 rarely lagged, but I have ran into lag issues with the M, not often but it's there and I also feel it's from the 1GB ram as I've underclocked my S3 before and it didn't lag like the M can sometimes.
