Couple of questions before I decide on getting an atrix. - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am thinking of trading for an atrix and have a couple questions.
1. Whats the latest os stock version number and is it rootable? Sideloading?
2. Has the update been released yet to fix the upload speeds?
3. Is the tethering hack still working with the latest stock build?
The potential deal is a iPhone 3gs and dell streak for the atrix. Thoughts?

1) 1.8.3 rootable wth Gingerbreak and sideloading enabled with Gladenable
Gingerbreak
Gladenable
2) in 1.8.3 there is new modem firmware AFAIK, If not then there is the Modem available from the Telstra Firmware
Telstra Modem
3) Not sure but there is "One Click Wifi Tether available"
One Click Unlock Wifi Tether
there is also a build.prop mod

Hope that helps

Thanks. Does glad enable work on 1.8.3 doesn't say so on the link you posted. What do you think of your atrix. What are the pluses and minuses? Think the deal is fair?

I don't have 1.83 yet (as it's still in beta, though an SBF has been leaked), but I'd bet the bank GladEnabler works on it (enabling sideloading is a simple and given thing so long as you can obtain root -- it is merely a matter of changing a "0" to a "1" in settings.db).
The deal is more than fair in my opinion. This phone has way (WAY) more processing power than both 3gs and Streak put together.

Sideloading defiantly works on 1.8.3. Just tested it
Note: am using gingerblur and never gladenabled

I don't want to derail this thread, but I keep seeing people saying this. Is it actually the case? Because I got the update last week from the Motorola website, and I was not in any beta test.
-Doogs™

The .83 available now is not a beta file. They have been sending the update out in batches over the last week.

Thanks for the help guys. Yeh I just checked the motorola website and 4.1.83 is on there available for download.
I played with the atrix at at&t today. I like it but feels so small compared to the streak.

I don't see why the current Modaco root would not work for the Texas beta Streak. Although I have not tried it myself...

The Modaco root and rom work just fine on my ATT Streak! Just follow all the instructions.

ATT Streak? Do you have an actual ATT streak or just calling your's an ATT one?

Well I suppose I should have clarified and said mine probably is one of the Dell Texas giveaway ones. It did however come with the 3562 rom version if that helps classify it.

All I did is debranded my phone to LAM Generic R2BA026.
I backed up these files before I debranded my phone to Generic.
Did AT&T brand this firmware like crazy?
By the look of the file size posted by the OP, this firmware looks very slimmed down.
The generic 026 NAM weighs in about 124MB in size. This AT&T firmware is only 116MB. I am assuming PlayNow is not there and maybe other stuff.
Anyone install it on their device yet?
il try it
give me some time il throw it on right now il take that back my update app wont let meflash my phone sucks

Question: Is Multi-Touch on ATT X10a Hardware disable? or Software Disable?
I am trying to figure out, which phone to get, comparing this phone with ATT Captivate.
well both phone have no front facing camera, no biggy for me.

It were said many times that X10 does not supports Multi-touch, so skip asking around about it.
It is seem the R2C firmware is just a customize for ATT, so sad
I'm quite curious to see anyone debrand it and upgrade it to 2.2...1.6 is soo old for a phone like that..
I asked the people at att and they say it was 2.1..turns out they lied.
Can you post apps and boot screen

You know they always will! Did they even know what you were talking about? I don't think so bro. A bunch of MORONS there. I plan on getting this phone too it looks sexier than captivate.
Did any one have any luck rooting their Xperia x10 on AT&T yet? If so, can you please tell us which of the rooting methods you used? I'm dying to get rid of all the bloated AT&T crap on the stock rom, and put my own on so that I can use the phone to its full potential.
Thanks in advance to anyone who has rooted their Xperia on AT&T and can tell us how they did it!
I used both methods. I used the 5 step (actually 7 for X10a) initially and then redid it with the 3 step for the 026 rom. On the three step I had to edit the third batch file to correct a syntax error.
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
And this was on the AT&T version of the x10a or a different version of it? If it's the AT&T version, can you tell me exactly how you did it so that I can root my phone as well?
Thanks!

[Q] Blurless Gingerbread on Atrix

Guys anyway to get a Blurless Gingerbread on my Atrix. BTW me in India so not sure if i would get the OTA update. Am still running on the stock Blur 2.2.2, Can anyone help me please?
read around in dev. its being worked on. we currently do not have any fully functional aosp rom
i think you have to unlock boot loader and upgrade yourself.
I doubt,we will get OTA in India.
^^Why do you want to wait for OTA ? Unlock the bootloader on the damn thing and flash to a brand new ROM!
blurless nope u have to wait for someone to complete an AOSP rom.

If you imported an AT&T atrix you should get it same as other AT&T atrix users. Its just internet, I don't think it checks geographical location of your IP address.
If you bought an Indian atrix then no idea
Yep am getting some OTA update today. This seems to take for ever even on my highspeed internet at home.

apart from extra bloatware ,and a potential '0% battery' problem , i dont think there should be any differences. (if ur phone is natively R8OOi )
Lol

Whoops, looks like I missed this topic and replied to another one instead. I'll repost here because it's more appropriate to this thread.
This release is the second release of the 2.3.4 firmware, right? I ask because I installed the Generic UK 2.3.3 firmware to my Google I/O R800a months ago and received the second 2.3.3 OTA update bringing it up to 4.0.A.2.368 about a month before the version for the North American R800a dropped. By all indications at the time, the UK firmware was getting updates out way faster.
But now this has been released and I still haven't seen anything come up for OTA or through PC Companion or SEUS. It makes me wonder if I should just flash back to the Generic North American R800a ROM with this.
Any suggestions/recommendations? Thanks!
Weird. When I plug my phone into my computer PC Companion tells me there is an update for my phone (the version that this thread is about). If I search for software update in the phone it says I am up to date. I'm on 2.3.4 now (4.0.1.A.0.283) which I believe is the UK generic version.
The .283 is the Nordic 2.3.4

There are no real differences except some different bloat apps and it will just say r800a in your about phone settings

So I've been loving this FW to death... except for one aspect.
BLOATWARE IS OFF THE ****ING CHARTS!
As if all the other expected stuff wasn't enough, now they're forcing Google Books, Video Unlimited, like 3 different "Get Games" things, LiveWare, a bunch of Facebook integrated stuff, OfficeSuite and PlayNow... and versions of Flash/Facebook/Youtube that can't be removed or moved to SD... holy ****.
Madden, Star Batallion, FIFA and Bruce Lee are also being forced... but I don't mind that much. I like all those games (still wouldn't mind having the option to move that stuff to SD).
The most annoying part is that if I uncheck Automatic Updates, it'll just re-check themselves and slam all those updates on my phone storage when I'm sleeping or something. That's pretty high up there on the "**** move"-o-meter.
Even still though... this ROM has been amazing... like 250MB free natively... 720p recording, xLoud... screen caps... but if someone could modify this ROM and kill off all that crap, I'd be in heaven.
you can , with root ^

lol I found out about the zergRush method roughly two minutes after I posted that bloatware rant.
Happily rooted, and about to tweak some things to perfection. I don't necessarily want to kill off all the bloatware... I just want it off my goddamn phone storage
IIRC, I can just go straight into the system/app folder and every apk I delete from there uninstalls the app, right? I've been on stock 2.3.3 so long I've forgotten.
Do you need an unlocked bootloader for this, or can you use it if the bootloader is still locked?

I'd like to know that as well. Trying to learn what I can/can't do with this phone compared to the other android phones I've had. Gotta figure out how to use built in tether without a tethering plan next.

[Q] Gingerbread 2.3.5 for Atrix 4G?

I just wonder if Motorola has released the update of 2.3.5 for the Atrix 4G. I know that the Atrix 2 does come with the new update of 2.3.5! Any ideas?
Not that I know of but for now ROMs are taking care of making the phone fast hopefully support continues though

I can't understand how you just miss EVERYTHING.
Check Motorolas website. Easier than creating an account for here, posting a question, and waiting for a response.
