Is Rooting of Backflip and Installing Customized Roms Illegal?What kind of effect these roms will have on the mobile? In Many ROMS they have mentioned as Android 2.2 or Android 2.3.4.
View 1 RepliesDuring an exam, I can get in trouble if my phone goes off, even if it just vibrates.I've noticed that even when I have my phone in silent mode, it still vibrates when I receive a text message. How do I turn this off? I do not use the phone for anything other than calling and texting; I have no apps or email accounts or google or anything else set up with the phone. I wouldn't even know how to use them, to be honest. I just want silent mode to mean everything is completely silent, no vibrating or anything.
View 1 Replies View RelatedOnce again, I adore my Backlfip; however, there are a few issues I've been posting about lately as an attempt to see if there are any solutions to long-term problems.
I update my apps about once a week (mainly due to the following problem). While updating apps on my phone through the Android Market it will almost always reboot my phone (not on each update... but maybe one out of every 5 updates). It doesn't seem to tie to a particular update.
My stepmother is planning on moving to Sprint and said I could have her Backflip after she did. I don't have a data plan and don't plan on getting one soon. If I scramble the APN with her disabled SIM card, then insert mine, will it keep those settings so that I don't get caught with it?

View 12 Replies View RelatedIt's been over a year since I posted here, because it's been that long since I had a problem. (And people say the Backflip is not any good). Anyway I tried to add another gmail acct this morning. And got an error msg "unable to establish a secure connection to server". After trying several times over a few hours, I began to wonder if it was Google or not, so I tried a hotmail account, same basic errror msg. Tried to check for any updates, and got the same basic msg.I can access websites through the browser, just not do anything related to system files.Talked to AT&T (No Help of course), as far as I can tell all settings are correct, even though I know there is a setting somewhere that is not right.

I turned it off by removing the battery as I didn't it to wait the boot process. After that the phone just don't finish booting up. I can see the blur logo, then goes into the at&t logo. Sits there for few minutes and reboots.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhat can be done to improve battery life on the Backflip, without turning off Happenings and email? It seems to shut off constantly. Is this normal or does it need exchanged?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI check my 'Happenings' and find there are hundreds of new messages, which is weird because I keep up with reading the new ones as they come in. As I page through them, I find that the 'new' happenings go from current messages to some that are a week old...in other words, happenings that I've already read a week ago are coming back as 'new'. This has happened several times.
View 1 Replies View Relatedi turned off my backflip for recharging earlier today. when i turn the device on now, it just keeps rebooting. i will see the Motorola Blur logo, then the ATT 3G animation, screen goes black, then comes Motorola blur logo again, follows by the ATT 3G animation. it seems like the phone is stuck in a "rebooting loop".I tried to pull the battery out and put it back it, it does not help.

View 6 Replies View RelatedMy BACKFLIP will reboot itself every few minutes. I don't have to be using it or doing anything with it and it will just reboot itself. It will reboot during a call, texting, charging or any other time it decides to do it. I have done several factory resets and it still does it. It has worked fine for almost 2 years and about a month ago it just started rebooting. There's nothing I've tried that will resolve this problem. The way it looks on the BACKFLIP page its a major problem with a lot of the BACKFLIP phones. This is the second BACKFLIP my family has had the same problem with. My brother just got tired of messing with his and got a new phone. If I could afford the upgrade charges of a new phone I'd do the same thing!

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have had my Backflip for almost a year now. The first three months or so were great! I had no problems with the phone at all. Now there is alot of problems with my Backflip. But the problem about my phone that irks me the most is that EVERY time I take a picture with my phone, it freezes and reboots. This is EVERYTIME!!! It's gotten to the point where I'm really tempted to throw my phone out the window. I also considered whether or not to get a new phone altogether because the camera problem isnt the only problem I have with this phone
View 4 Replies View RelatedI purchased a used Backflip and almost immediately started having the re-boot issue, which I since have learned is very well documented. Next time I'll research the forums b4 buying!My Backflip would spontaneously re-boot and then get caught in a constant cycle by rebooting less than 1 minute after my home screen (finally) appears. It never seemed to be triggered by any specific action, such as pressing the infamous "J" key, or using the camera, as others have stated.Through my research I determined the first thing to do was a reset to factory settings. That took time, but didn't solve anything. Then I went down the loose battery/business card shim route. I have 3 BN80 batteries. None of them solved the problem, nor did any of the various business card shim configurations I tried. All of my BN80 batteries are rated 1380 mAh/5.1 Wh. One poster claims that there are 2 different versions of that battery and the correct one is rated 1320 mAh/4.2 Wh. So I tried my BN70 from my Moto Karma (1140 mAh/4.2 Wh).
I also have 2 SD cards and it re-booted with either of them, and with neither of them.So I mumbled something unrepeatable, and gave-up. :-( I pulled my sim card and stuck it back into my Q1 Karma.Then I thought...could it be? So I re-tried the Backflip and viola! No problems. It's solid as a rock. I can browse the web via wi-fi and use all of the features. I can open it, shut it, use the camera, push any key (hard), including those on the battery side of the keyboard (even with the thinner profile BN70 battery) and I can't get the thing to re-boot! That is until I insert a SIM card. The very same SIM card which works just fine in my other Moto phone.
My yahoo email account was recently hacked so I changed the password. I tried to change the password for the Yahoo account on my phone but it wouldn't work, so I deleted the account. I tried to re-add th yahoo account but it still won't allow me to login. I know the password is correct.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've had this phone for about 6 months now and when I charge it, it goes to the white screen with Motorola sign, goes black, vibrates, then back to white screen.I've tried the hard reset where you hold down the buttons, but it doesn't even do anything.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI dropped my phone earlier today and my phone went blank. When I tried to restart the phone, I noticed that the screen was really dark and that I was able to see the Motorola logo when I looked at it at a certain angle. I tried looking through the forums and tried doing a factory reset but I'm unable to do so because once I get past the pressing the camera and power button step, I'm unable to see anything on the screen and it seems as if the touch screen isn't working either. I'm unable to see any options and seems like I can't press any buttons either.
