Motorola Atrix 4G :: Jump Between Multiple Pages/screens/application?
Jul 2, 2011
how to be able to jump between mulitple pages/screens/applications? With my Blackberry, if I was on one page, I could click a button, and it would give me the option to go to the home screen and then anywhere else I wanted to go. Then, go back to the original application, and still be where I left off. I was uploading pics on Facebook, and I tried going back to the gallery page to preview the rest of the pics for possible upload, but when I hit the home icon, then menu, then gallery.....it kept taking me back to the Facebook notification page. I'm sure with the Android system, it is possible to do it (if the Blackberry can), I just can't figure out how.
Under the Tex Messaging List where you see all the contacts you've received messages from I am getting several duplicates, triplicates, etc...
For example, I send a message to my Chief and my message will not appear in the chat log instead it will create a new point in the Text Messaging. Lost?
Home Screen -> Text Messaging -> Contact Chat Log
Now however, if the contact first send me a message then I can append my messages in the Contact Chat Log and they will be syncronous. Otherer wise mine will always end up in another Contact Chat Log under Text Messaging.
I've tried rebooting, cleared my chat logs, and played with a couple of other settings. I even went through the painstaking reset to factory. I will not do that again EVER! We need a way to back up to the computer....
Is this a bug in 4.5.91.MB60.ATT.en.US on 2.3.4 Android? It started with this firmware update and hasn't gone away yet.
Could not figure out if its still there or not but before the update you used to be able to swipe screens and on the bottom you could jump from first or last screen instantly or vice versa can't seem to get it to do that don't know if I am doing something wrong or they took that feature away the little dots on the bottom that show which of the seven screens you are on are to small to touch
how to quickly jump from the bottom of a web page back to the top? I'm using the built in browser my Atrix came with. This is the only feature I miss from my iPhone.
Since I got my Atrix about two months ago, I have had several issues that I have seen posted and am still awaiting a fix. Like horrible call signal when iPhone has no problem, security lock timer, voice quality from my handset, but I have not read about this other one with the Incoming Call. This issue is very random for me, but when people call me, usually I get their image in the middle and what looks like the lock screen, with one bar on left and right that can be swiped to answer or hang up. This is the screen that I get maybe 75% of the time, but every so often I get another Incoming call screen that doesn't have the bars that swipe, but at the very bottom it has two large buttons, a green one to answer and a red one to ignore. I know not a big deal, you either swipe or press a button right? Well it also affects the ringtone, when I get the slider buttons, the ringtones work fine, but when I get the buttons, it uses the original default ringtone, not even the default ringtone I have setup on the phone. I don't have any other dialer or call log app installed, I just set up my ringtones in settings and choosing individual users. Anyways, I like the button screen dialer, better than the default swipe one, but is there a way I could set a default and not get different incoming call screens.
For the last couple of weeks my icons keep disappearing on different screens. Is there a way to stop that and if not, is there a way to refresh them without restarting the phone? I am tired of restarting several times a day.
According to the tips&tricks section of Help Center, when I am on any home screen, pressing home again should take me to the middle home screen. Touching home from the middle screen should give me a thumbnail view of all home screens, enabling me to jump directly to anyone of them. Neither of these functions is working. Am I perhaps missing a setting?
Is there a way on the Xoom with ICS to create folder on the homescreens (like on my Atrix or an iPad) to organize icons or do we still need to use 3rd party apps for that kind or function?
For the last couple of days, whenever i download any application, it keeps downloading the same twice. I mean once the download is complete, it again starts the app download from teh beginning. Starting today, its keeps downlaoding without stop
I got my N97 mini as a gift a few days ago. I've only ever used Nokia and I absolutely love the phone so far, but I'm having some challenges trying to open multiple web pages at a time. I've only been able to do this once as a result of a pop up window from a previous page. Is there a standard way to do this?
New to the smartphone community. User manual is lacking. How do I highlight and/or select multiple email messages for deletion? So far, it looks like a one-at-a-time deal
I hope motorola can improve there text message app. if i want to foward message to some people, i have to type every name, and i don't like group messaging.
Communications Authorities in Egypt changed Mobile networks numbers for all three providers by adding a number to each provider, for instance mine starts with 010 it will be 0100 and so on for other two providers adding 1 and 2.Now I have more than one thousands (1000) contacts in my phone book, how can I add this new digit to multiple contacts instead of editing one by one.
I've noticed that some times when I get text messages from certain contacts, the way it shows up on my informs me that it was sent to myself and X amount of people (and I can view those numbers/contacts if I have them). But what's annoying is when I try to reply to "said person" it replies to all contacts that recieve the message. Now if I hold down the message and get options, I can view the details and open the message/delete the message, and I can Reply to All... but it never lets me just reply to that person. There is no option for it. I just reply and they all get it.
Like I stated before, this is not every time I get a mass text message from someone. Some of my friends have iPhone 4s so I tested it last night with a friend sending out a text to two of us and when I received it there was no indication that it had been sent to multiple people. Also have another friend that does this a lot with his Droid 2, no issue with his either. I'm wondering if this is happening because of the way it's being sent to me (and others) but even if I can see who else it was sent to, I'd still like the option to just reply to one person.Any advice on this? I foresee people telling me to get another text messaging app though which makes me think AT&T/Motorola should really add a lot more features to their text messaging app just incase of the people that would like options..
i bought atrix just 2 days back and now it's started showing lot of problems.1) When i press power button to turn the display off phone becomes unresponsive) when i tried to remove some of the application i can't as uninstall button itself is disabled3) every now and then either application is not loading or running applicaitons are crashing4) phone has started behaving strangely as it reboots on its own and hang on its own sometimes.I called my carrier and they were clueless so asked they'll come back in 2 hours time.
I'm a little underwhelmed with the Gmail application on the Atrix. After coming from an Iphone one of the glaring deficiencies with this mail app is that I cannot resize html email content. I don't see any other options for mail on this phone, am I stuck with this app for mail? Is it part of the MotoBlur suite? I like the MotoBlur messaging tools or not. I want to like it because it seems like a great idea but it also seems a bit too cumbursome and non-intuitive. I'll try it a bit longer to see if it grows on me or not.
Over the last week I've noticed sudden power loss on my Photon. It will go blank without warning. Plug it in and it will show 0%-10% battery power. Watch the screen and it will sometimes jump back up suddenly. From 10-20% to 100% before my eyes. I'm guessing it's a battery or phone issue. Don't see any other discussions about this. Planning on brining the phone in soon
Really working nokia giving a very worst experience.i can't use ovi,when am moving to more pages its giving error messages.memory close some application,and when try to open a web page more than 600 kb,same exception is giving.i lost hope on nokia lost..waste of amount.
I have a new issue that popped up today. While scrolling through my home screens, my phone will not jump to the main screen by pushing the Home button. It was working fine until about 1:00 today. I have also noticed that double tapping the home key brings up voice commands. Is there any way to turn this off?
I have for example 5 different applications open at ones on my phone, can I close them all at the same time, like on the old Symbian platform ? Or do I have to inside each one of them and do back, back and back forever?
Good morning all. Yesterday BB app world informed me there was a newer version of ScoreMobile available. I checked the release notes and it said it was compatible for the OS running on my Storm 2 (v5.0.0.1015 - Bundle 1656, Platform 4.2.0.442). I installed it, but after restarting I received an error. I decided to do a battery pull and received the same error. I tried uninstalling the entire app and performing another battery pull and received the same error. I also tried booting into safe mode on my BB. On reboot, the first error is "Uncaught exception: Index 5>= 5" After I hit "OK", I receive this error: "Uncaught exception: ApplicationRegistry.getOrWaitFor(0x7c802477365c3985) owner died Thread [Thread-94372864,5]" I hit "OK" and everything seems to go back to normal except I can't make phone calls and the BB is freezing. This device worked fine before this upgrade.
I am in need of a high quality IphoneIpad application for organising multiple to do lists for business use. I essentially want to create a "to do list" for various people and projects. Ideally it needs to sync with the web so I can update on the iphone, ipad and via www. Or at least a PC desktop client.
I have been using Atrix for about 6 months now and have suddenly faced an issue. If I press the search button while browsing through applications, I get the following error:"The application Home (process com.motorola.home) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."After I am forced to "force close" this, automatically all recently used (probably running) apps get started. To elaborate on the problem. It occurs every time I perform following steps.
1. I'm on the home screen
2. Press the Apps button (to view all installed apps)
3. Press the search button
Effects:
1. Error pop-up : Application Home has stopped unexpectedly (Exact message given above)
2. Click on "Force Close" button on the error popup
3. Screen blanks out for a couple of seconds and the home screen reappears. In case any other applications are running in the background originally, then all those apps start ie they occupy the screen (instead of home screen).
Is there any way I can get 7 screens instead of the 5 droid 4 screens? I have no room left. A check box to increase the number of screens would be great.
I've rooted my phone but can't seem to change the boot screens, the Motorola logo if fine with me but I hate the boost animation and want to replace it, none of the ways I've found so far work, how to do this on this model phone?
all the downloaded apps I have show Icons that I would like to move to the various screens of my droid x. I thought I coud hard press and drag and drop from the manage apps but that doesn't work. Is there a way to do this? annumber of icons like abc news fox,drudge on on my screens but there are many that are not.
