[Q] thunderbolt official gingerbread OTA? 9/19/11

so i'v read there is an official gingerbread OTA rolling out now or about to be rolling out. any truths to this? or is this just more speculation?

Wouldn't count on it. All the rumours ever regarding this phone have been wayyyy off. Don't get your hopes up...why don't you root and get gingerbread? And sense 3.0

Move off shiftsense and go to synergy, I did and never looked back. Don't know why but it just a total feel of sense 3.0 almost a 3D feel with the menu and all the extra they include in the ROM. I am staying here since they could be the first to port sense 3.5 come in the water in fine.

I just played with it. I like it, but I'm not drooling to get it. I think it's more just eye candy than a real upgrade to 3.0.

Well, I have the leaked gb and am not rooted... *and* the "download more HTC widgets" is working now in sense. (Whatever the fck that means ... I just know it wasn't working a week or two ago)
I was told "mid sep" from a good pal on the vzw side abt a month ago after he dbl checked w HTC. It *should* be in the next cpl of days.

I'm not sure if this means anything but Last Tue I had a Reb send me out a new TB.. Told 2 days. Well it didn't show up by Fri I texted him and he said that my order had errored out and he wasn't in the next day to see it. Ok fine he set it up and told me now 5 days???? My first thought is that they are holding it back for a reason. My first thought was they want to wait till gingerbread rolls out before I get it? Maybe it will come with GB already installed wich would suck because I want to root it again right away. Just seemed weird that all of a sudden it takes 5 days to get a replacement.

do want.HTC has GOT to deliver...

I just got a replacement TB, and it took 5 days as well. Not because of any upgrade coming to the phone though. VZW is now using USPS to ship stuff. I'm about done with HTC and this phone. I've had about 5 now and all seem to come up with a serious issue. I'm not thinking GB is going to save this phone...

rooting etc
I have a thunderbolt and was totally lied to- I was not informed about the random txing to people you didnt mean to- sent a message to my daughter and it went to my boss while I was working! It also constantly reboots since the july update. I am afraid to root as I want to know I can get updates later on. If I root to get GB will that also update my htc sense? I know I sound like a moron..I am just frustrated and don't know where to go..I want what I paid for any anyone who will help me will be rewarded or supported if you have a site I can contribute to! Right now I have everything stock and july "update" ha..what a laugh!
Thanks!!

I haven't checked too closely but until users here or other sites actually receive the update notification (someone will take a picture of the screen !), don't believe it 'til you see it.

The only even-close-to-official announcement was on HTC's Facebook and Twitter accounts stating that the GB update for the TB was due in September.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but no, a possible update is NOT the reason for your delayed shipment. Your replacement phone is sitting packaged up in a sealed box with whatever s/w release it has and that ain't changing. What about the thousands of TBolts sitting in VZW's warehouse or the thousands sitting in VZW stores all across the country ? Are they going to update those ? Nope.... If an update comes out, those phones with "old" s/w will update shortly after they're activated (could be hours or days or ??).

I use Go SMS. Both that and handcent work really well. Must be a bug with htc messaging.

Got My New Atrix 2 today..

How can I put stuff on my internal flash drive? I can't seem to access it. I want to put my music or other things on it, I can only get into my external.

You can't access the internal memory.

I think that's something in the upcoming update... someone mentioned the partition tables not being set up properly. Not for sure though...

Go do a google search for motorola medialink I think it is called, this will allow you to sync your music and photos to your phone's internal storage.

As for your internal storage (get your terminology right!), it is ONLY used for app storage. You can't access it or store anything else there.

Don't be too hard on the newbies, it's an honest mistake.

Wow that was kinda harsh, I am sure he did not mean to imply anything insulting.
We have just have had a rash of issues with newbies jumping in way over their head lately, and those of us that have been here helping out are starting to see a new pattern of the same stuff coming up over and over, and over again, without doing any research on their own. Hence the shortness of the replies lately, that we tend to give now, to a lot of things. Please just excuse us for that, it is not meant as a knock, just that we are a little frustrated with how frustrated people seem to get with things not being farther along for this phone than they are. Those of us, working in here, feel everyones pain, but we also are working hard to make this phone better.
However since you did just get the Atrix 2 you are technically a newbie in this forum, and that is not a slight or a nock, and I knew what you meant earlier about internal storage vs your sd card, and like I had stated medialink is the best choice, but however everyone is correct, that the internal 4GB is just for app storage, and a few other things that only the phone can access.
To be more successful, we all need to work together and not have fighting and so much back and forth, sometimes just let things roll off your back. We are just a frustrated as the rest of you here, about getting things we all want, and we are working towards that, including people like 916x10, remember we give our time freely to make this device better for everyone here, if you eliminate some of us, this phone will die a quick death with development.

I'm gonna take the high road on this one and let that ride...hopefully there won't be a next time

And its not difficult to search the ATRIX 2 forums there's not a huge number of topics and before doing anything for me atleast its common sense to read before doing anything to your device and even then its a your own discretion

It can still be called an internal flash drive, however, because it is flash memory. Unless you have a cool phone like me with a SATA drive in it.

Let me do a little research, the ability is in android to allow the fat32 partition,to be seen from usb. There is a link back to the sdcard fat32 partition, from /osh so I am sure there is way, give me a day or two and I will see what I can come up with.

[ROM][ODIN-TAR]Odin One-Clicks (LF2,LG1,LK1,LK3)

This is a set of rooted and unrooted Odin One-Click Packages. If you're unfamiliar with these, it is the factory firmware loaded in a compacted version of odin and flashing is executed in a single click. No need to check boxes, or worry about what slots to load etc. I do not own this version of the s3 so these have not been tested. They're packed in self-extracting 7z archives. They will not affect your flash count.
Windows PC with Samsung Drivers installed is required.
Shouldn't be any problems but I am not responsible for any that may arise.

Really? Been over a month and only 850 views on this. Out of the 15 or so GS3 carriers that I made these for, I wouldve never guessed it'd be Verizon who would produce the smallest download/view count. Not swole or anything. Just a bit surprised

Didn't know it was out of date. That goes to show how long this has been up. LK1 was the latest when i posted this

I think word just hasn't gotten out (in other threads) and due to some of the activity here the dev sections seem to be more congested?
I just happen to run across this.

That why i bumped it.Its like once something hits page 2 it gone... lol

Main reason being is that sxtpdevelopers is the only reason I got the tools and instructions to make these. In addition to that, sextape is a big contribitor to alot of great stuff including most of the leaks we recieve and the site survives off of ads and donations so I do what I can to increase traffic. (plus Im not a big fan of this site as it ****s on the people that contribute most of their time helping others so I dont mind directing traffic elsewhere.):laugh:

Are these no wipe, or full wipe versions? Is it possible to get full wipe versions?

is this rom unlocked
?

Downloading now. Are all version rooted?

Thank you very much billard412 this has sticky written all over it.
There are a lot of people that came to the GIII from other devices, and the big bad foreign God Odin seems to scare them. IMOA it's a very underutilized and overlooked tool. 1 click and you have a new base band (modem), kernal, ROM, RPM, PIT and as long as you can get into download mode it doesn't matter what state of confusion your phone is in at the time, it's saved my arse more times than I can count.
P.S.

Being a sprint user I am not 100% on how the locked thing works. To my understanding tho you needed something special for an unlocked bootloader to flash so there was no way to load it into this. So no

[APP] Locket Get paid while you unlock your phone

So today this app called Locket was just released. Basically it pays you about 1 penny sometimes more for each ad. The ads are not really annoying like those push notifications. How it displays is when you wake up your phone and then it's there on the lock screen. From what i see it's pretty much like deals and big brand names. Check it out, if you're like me you unlock your phone A LOT throughout the day lol. Oh and the best part is you don't have to actually visit the ad since it's already paying you for displaying it on your phone.
Here's the link shortened

It seems to be set to allow you to earn a penny a few times in a specific time period then a wait for a specific time period is set for it to stop displaying 1 penny when that time is up you are able to receive a few cents until you do so many times within a set time then it just loops

3 cents per hour. Pays out in PayPal at the moment, but in future updates, it might be Amazon/Google Play cards (My guess anyway).
They're thinking of other ways to display ads, so far they're saying that they don't want to go the notifications route.
I've made $0.56 so far. They said they give out bonuses sometimes too. I think I already got a $0.10 one.

If this is legit I doubt it will last long nor will anyone make much money.I am sure there is a limit on the unlocks per day and not worth it.
Next here comes the guy who makes an app where your lockscreen blinks on and off constantly......See where all this is going???,,,,,,wont be going very far thats for sure. Save yourself some time and move on, most likely a scam anyways.
EDIT: Well I will eat my words, I guess its legit. You just need an app to unlock your phone screen three times per hour , 24 hours a day to make $262.80 over the course of a year,

They've already said that they can easy oust people for trying to sign up multiple times. And obviously, they also have your IP address among other stuff. I am a part of so many survey groups and stuff. They aren't going to catch you right away, but they're going to hit you the MOMENT you try and cash out.
They can do it the way AT&T does it... They can see whether or not you have a tethering app by just having one of their apps installed. Hence a lot of people get caught tethering sooner or later by just having the myAT&T app installed. These guys can tell whether you have Tasker or similar installed and if it's running.

Need locket-beta apk file
Hey guys,
I'm from India and I'd love to try this app. I've tried changing my Billing address in Google Wallet to be able to download this app but I still cannot. I'm now being charged in USD for purchases instead of INR but this app still shows as incompatible with any of my devices. Also, I've tried using Market Enabler but that hasn't worked either. Can someone upload the apk for me please?
Thanks,

Usage: I've used the card 3 times now. I've discovered you want to scan your finger print after the machine is waiting for the card. If you scan your fingerprint before the swipe card, you can actually crash the POS machine. So today I crashed a local gasstation POS.
If anyone has any questions, shoot away.

Has anyone else experienced this or can emulate the results?

I have not experienced this. I got my account working yesterday but have had mixed results. It worked using NFC at McDonald's, but I haven't been able to get the MST to work, it failed at Starbucks and a local frozen yogurt place.
I feel like such an idiot when it doesn't work, with the cashier looking at me like "why are you putting your phone next to where I swipe a card?"

I've had mixed results so far. When it works, it works great! I have found that while it may work at some places, there are some lime 7-11 that it doesn't. I get declined at 7-11

I've been using samsung pay at different locations using the MST technology and it all work's just fine. When I say MST I mean places that's don't even have NFC terminals. So far loving Samsung Pay

I use it with the nfc off. Only mst everywhere. I find its has worked everywhere but one of the two 711s I've been to, and the Starbucks I frequent.
It seems when ever I use it where there is no nfc, the cashier is always sooo curious. Prolly deal with apple pay users everyday throwing a fit they don't have the technology yet.
I agree. Sooooo embarrassing when it doesn't work. I also try not to use it where the scanner is on the POS systems behind the counter(like starbucks).

Does samsung pay automatically turn on nfc when you scan your fingerprint? can you use it without having nfc turn on and just rely on MST?

Yes, you can use it without NFC on, but only if you are using the MST type of transaction.

Has anyone that had Samsung Pay had to do an exchange and gotten Samsung Pay back on the new device?
I had to exchange my note 5 and I thought maybe because it was link to my account I would still have it but I don't.
I guess I have to go through the whole process again, but I don't even see the link live for new testers

Thanks, that's a flashable zip, but I'm not rooted yet.

Ok people! (sorry for all caps just wanna get my message across).... For everyone having issues with it at like starbucks and 7-11....what i've found out that works for me is to run it as "credit"... Don't use it as debit.... I think it confuses the pos somehow? Give it a try!

Yes but the apk is inside the zip in the app\SasungPayStub folder. I haven't ran stock in a long time but I thought you can use a file explorer and sideload the apk can't you? You need to make sure that Unknown sources is turned on in your Lock screen and security settings.

I got declined at first at 711 but that was cause the person behind the register canceled payment when I put phone up cause he didn't know that SSP works with their old system. I told him it works and he set it to pay again and he was mind blown

I contacted SP about this, and they told me they wouldn't be updating any IMEIs anymore because it was so close to the launch date. Sucks, but we just have to wait until Monday (12am PDT I'm told).

Yeah true, didn't realize it's supposed to launch in Monday. Guess I'll wait lol. That's probably what the new update is about, to be able to get Samsung Pay easier to the masses.
Thx for the heads up

what sucks is that even though when it was announced chase was suppose to be a partner i dont see any info anywhere that backs it up anymore. very limited in terms of what cards can be used.

Does anyone know if I go back to stock am I able to use Samsung Pay? Or once your rooted Knox is tripped for good. Haven't used a Sammy phone in a while

Sorry, once you've tripped knox, you no longer can use Samsung Pay.
