Howdy all!
Has anyone noticed that the "Double Tap Home" button resets itself? I changed mine to be the dialer, and after a few days it resets to Voice Dial.
I'm curious if anyone has run into it and possibly solved this problem.
Are you running a custom ROM or Motorola firmware?

I had the same problem here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1010892
although I never got anywhere. After a while I think it stuck. I have no idea what caused it to revert back...

That could be the reason. Have you tried custom ROMS instead? If you need help with the boot loader unlocking, rooting process, let me know because I can help.

I haven't ventured into the realm of custom ROMs yet. Definitely an area that I want to get into (I was an avid blackberry beta tester before I jumped ship).
Can you answer a few questions perhaps?
1. Will flashing a new ROM cause me to lose all my user data?
2. What ROM do you recommend? I actually like the look of the stock .91 ROM, and I use ADW Launcher. I'm not really into the CG7 look with everything being bluish. I guess with ROMs, I just don't have a good enough understanding.
For the first question, yes you will lose stock data. But if you have gmail, contacts, paid apps, and calendar will be saved. But its totally worth it. The rom I recommend right now is the ALIEN ROM. Which is a nice one. If you want to to start, let me know and I will give you a guide that helped me.

Maybe I misunderstood, but I am already rooted and unlocked.
I thought what you were going to provide was the latest ALIEN rom link and screenshots (as well as the way to apply the rom - fastboot, cwm, etc.)

Double-tap home got too annoying for me.
I ended up freezing the default voice command feature in TiBu, and don't have to worry about it anymore...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1186537
Here is the alien ROM LINK
Sorry for the late response.
Ok! Well, all that was easier than I thought. This is amazingly fast. So far I haven't found any glitches, everything works the same for me. I've rebooted several times and the home button hasn't reset, so thats a good sign.
One thing I did notice is that I now only have one APN listed, and I think before I had several.
I didn't install the bloatware, but BLUR seems to work fine.
One thing I will say is that installing 200 apps by hand from the market SUCKED. I used a Titanium Backup and then used the market link from there.
Also thought that I should mention that this did *NOT* fix my "double tap" home button issue.
After some amount of time the home button defaults to voice commands, which is useless to me. Taking another suggestion above and freezing the app with TiBackupPro.
Oh well. Maybe Beta #4 will fix the issue.

First post here, so please take it a little easy on me. I have had my Vibrant for some time, I had not rooted as I didn't fully understand how magic it could be. After some research, I decided I would go ahead and do it tonight, using one click root. Everything is mostly ok and I think that I did successfully root, however, I am having problems with Super User. First off, just about anything I do force closes it, but secondly - and more importantly - I have downloaded a few apps that need root access, like 'shoot me' or 'titanium backup' - both will open, but they dont work, superuser is not popping up like I was under the impression that it would.
I have been googling for some time now and cannot find an answer to this, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Try to open titanium backup and hit the problems button to download busybox. See if that does you any good.
Thanks, that did it. The only issue I am having now is that I have no haptic feedback and the phone is moving waaaaay slower then ever

Thank you for this thread! I am rooted and have tried several roms and radios. My question is this: Is the check for updates function in phone settings a reliable way to determine if your phone is capable of receiving OTA updates? I noticed when I was on a leaked radio it would tell me that the update service was unavailable and to check back. When I returned to the stock radio it said there were no updates available. Tia!
P.S. I am currently on the stock rom and radio. I am aware that any official OTA updates may wipe my root and my ability to reroot.

In the past, if you did not have all of the bloatware, etc. that came on the phone (i.e. if you were not completely stock) you would have issues getting the OTA. Since you are back to stock, you should not have any issues, but I wouldn't necessarily say that "check for updates" is the best way to determine that. If you are completely stock, you will get the OTA, but I wouldn't say that check for updates is all that reliable if you have changed something.

I am completely stock with the exception of root at the moment. Just curious if I will be able to deny OTA updates or they will automatically update my phone. With the OG Droid I was asked if I wanted to update or not. I don't want to lose root with no going back. Thanks.
I would assume so (that you can deny). I jumped on the Droid train a bit later but have always been asked (when I was all stock) to update.

EH03 is what you want to go to stock
Superclean3 or Geewiz if you want to stay close to stock gingerbread.
But I'd recommend ics aokp glitched m5. Its pretty much the best that the fascinate can run and ever has run.

Already did And updated the gapps to 429 and used the latest build35. Build 35 has pink unicorn which so far has great performance. No big diff from milestone5 so far. Still no screen capture option, but im looking into it. Gonna test the GPS later on. That was still causing me some issues

Music player isn't included as most people have a specific preference, so it's bring your own. YouTube you can get easily enough from the market. Besides that's gapps and not rom related.

Gotcha Anywho still having connectivity issues with GPS? the icon is suppose to be flashing when searching for a signal inside the circle, but its not. I have everything enabled. So im unsure whats going on at this point :/
Go through the maps shortcut forbl navigation. Occasionally you may have to launch it a few times before it seeks a GPS signal. For the first lock try to do it outdoors and be patient. First lock may take a long time.

Maybe you could tell him that the software.zip was about halfway down the page on the thread you linked, instead of posting the canned response "Use the search" which yourself have failed to do as well.
Also, I've checked your profile and proper net-iquette is when someone helps you, that you thank them. There are many people (Samsgun357, Xeniosm, N00B_in_N33D,..) that have been trying to help you over the past few weeks and yet you haven't "thanked" any of them. It's free and doesn't really mean anthing, but it is the thought that counts, know what I mean. Makes them want to help you further. You are limited to 8 on a PC and unlimited on Tapatalk/XDA app. According to your young, so we'll just chalk it up to that.
****************************
OP, here is what Lustergfx was trying to tell you (but there is far more to it than that). See the link I posted just above this. Look at item #6. Some of those links should help you out.
<SNIP>
ADDITIONAL TWEAK
Check out this thread here and read through the OP carefully. A few days ago I flashed "S.gps.zip" and I've had great results with it on Bionix 1.3.1 with the KA7 modem. I didn't see an increase in accuracy, but I did see a HUGE improvement on the speed my GPS locked and the number of birds locked too. I played around with all of the 2.2 modems last night and they all saw improved results.
If you decide to flash one of those zips, I recommend making a Nandroid backup first. In reading through the thread it appears that there are a few people that had their flashes result in broken GPS's. I have no idea why, I'd imagine it's because they didn't clear GPS data and they just think it's broken. I recommend making a backup, shutting off your GPS, booting into CWM, flashing the zip, rebooting, clearing GPS data, turning your GPS on and enjoying locks. And, as always, I recommend using GPS Test by Mike Lockwood to test your GPS every time you make a change.
The Super GPS should work on any ROM on an Vibrant, but it looks like a lot of people have tried it on 2.2 ROMS so be aware that, as always, there's the chance you may brick your device. If it works for you, be sure to thank jellette for his work. As always, I take no responsibility if this messes up your phone. I'm just relaying what worked for me.

Backing up LS now and downloading now. I am still kind of new doing this stuff, but I will give it go.
My quick run down....... Boots quick. Runs very quick. Just a quick play through...
I am on Straight Talk, with the proper APN's I could not get data connection. In Status, it says disconnected.. That might be me not really knowing a whole lot or work arounds, but APN is correct. I could not get the "Nitro Settings" in Settings, Advanced, to show as usable toggles, they just stay dim. Except "SDCARD, that works. The browser FC's instantly. Home button doesn't do anything. SMS, MMS, work on wifi. I had to change from transparent status bar to black/gray to see the status bar.
I cant get the screen to lock, even trying Pin. This rom seems awesome and sliding from Left to Right from home screen has some cool features.
Just to reiterate, by no means am I complaining, just trying to help out. I dont have half the knowledge to build these things and I do appreciate all the work you guys do for hundreds of people you will never meet. Thank you again and have a great weekend. I am going back to LS for now, but would love to try this again soon.

I'll have to take a look at that rom. I'm with capt in temp. confusion. I was about to say our mega isn't bootloader unlocked. lol..... And I am blonde- I have an excuse!! Will dig out the old Note and see what I can do.
As far as getting data flowing, you need to take into account not just the apn, but the modem you are on and the android version you are on too.
It's been a while GT since I played with modems on this Note. Since I went back to Att, I switched back to one of the original Att modems. I am on one of the new kitkat roms I think.
It's based on ICS, 4.1.2 so the new lte modems that came out the last year or so may not work well. Att's original modem when this phone was released had lte working, at least for the pseudo lte. If you are running on ST with Att that might work better. If ST is on tmobile sim, you might have to install a modem made for t-mobile/adapted for the att Note.

you have forgotten more about modems than most people can learn
Not sure if this helps any, and I should of included it, since you mentioned modem. It was UCMD3 and I used TWRP 2.6.1.0. I chose that recovery because it is what I used on the other 4.1.2 Roms.
Again, sorry for all the negative feedback. I felt awful reporting it. I have spent the last day wondering I'd I was going to get blasted or not. Being kind of..... Not knowledgeable in this field... I was apprehensive to report anything. Hopefully its a stupid mistake I made. Thank you all for your time and patience you take putting these together for the masses.
