Motorola Photon Q 4G :: How To Re-lock The Bootloader
Sep 28, 2012In the unlock FAQs, it is mentioned that the bootloader can be re-locked. However, I can't seem to find any instructions on how to do this. So, how do you do it? I've only unlocked my bootloader. Everything else about the phone is stock. I haven't flashed any new ROMs or anything else.

May 21, 2012that Moto continues to support the Photon, with ICS in development for Q4. However, there are community developers that could have a fully-complete, stable ICS build ready in a matter of WEEKS if Moto were kind enough to unlock our bootloader and provide us with a few updated drivers.Would it not be good customer service to provide users with this? Would it not improve customer loyalty? I am a big fan of Motorola devices, but I can see why people are being driven away by their locked-down nature. I implore you, Motorola, to please provide an official unlock tool and make available updated driver libraries and/or source code.

Aug 11, 2011Any use the Motorola Date and Time Widget? Mine seems to hang at night (seemingly about 20min after I plug it in for charging) and stays on yesterdays date and time until somehow it corrects itself the next day. There is no way to "activate it" or make it correct itself. All other clocks and calendars are correct.

Jan 23, 2012I have a Sprint Motorola Photon 4G and I am using it in Brazil with a Claro SIM Card. The phone reboots itself sometimes when I try to make or receive a phone call (2 or 3 times a day). I know this is happening to other Photon owners and I already tried the factory reset twice. My build # is 4.5.1A-1_SUN-198_6. Does anyone know a fix for that?

Jan 9, 2012I have a major issue with my corporate exchange calendar. If I accept an invitation to a meeting, the phone makes me the organizer of the meeting. This syncs back to my corporate calendar. This is obviously completely wrong. If I delete the meeting on my phone, or on my computer, it sends out a message to everyone that was on the meeting saying that it was cancelled. If I need to adjust the meeting only on my calendar, it sends out an update to everyone. It has caused a lot of confusion for me and my work colleagues.

Aug 14, 2011I noticed that whenever I am making/receiving calls, the screen flashes every few seconds. I wonder why it is doing that. I have never seen this on any other phone before. At first I thought it was related only to the silent call issue that the screen flashes every few seconds but even when I am able to make a regular call it still does this.

Sep 16, 2011Anyone used or using Drive First?I installed it, was using it, but just too much for me, I already use a car dock, motospeak and bluetooth.(Yes, trying to be safe).It just does not intrgrate well with Google Voice.Anyway, it seemed to install an app when I signed up for it, the app is called Smart Device Manager.After cancelling Drive First it continues to lock my screen when the car moves.I figured out which app is is, but the only available option is "uninstall updates" and it keeps wanting to re-update the app after I uninstalled updates. I have uninstalled updates and reinstalled a few times, but it seems that app is dug in there, and won't leave.Because Sprint customer service has NO CLUE (after 4 reps) how the app works, or how to get rid of it?

May 10, 2012For those of us wishing Motorola would unlock the bootloader like HTC, it looks like AT&T is cracking down on HTC. I've been reading the new HTC One or X or whatever it is, running on AT&T will not be able to use the unlock tool. As HTC is losing market share I guess they just don't have the juice they once did with the US carriers to

Jul 19, 2012The world knows updates in a Motorola phone is very slow! This leaves power users with no other option but to go for custom ROMs. Even there locked bootloader is always a very big problem! Moto promised long back to unlock bootloaders. Defy and Defy+ are now quite old phones and will receive no update either! So now is there any hope that the bootloaders will be unlocked? This deters most devs and power users from getting Moto phones inspite of an excellent build quality. Hope we get a reply and this thread don't die without any use!

Aug 30, 2011I am able to use PPTP VPN over 4G without problems. However if I disconnect. Then turn off 4G. Wait a minute or two or even overnight. Then try to connect the PPTP VPN over 3G it fails. So, does PPTP VPN work over Sprint 3G?Initial research: I have read on some old posts that VPN over Sprint 3G is not supported from smart phones, only wireless modems. Some of the VPN problems were also caused by earlier versions of the android linux. Is it possible to use VPN over Sprint 3G from a Photon? If not does PPTP VPN work on other Sprint phones?

Motorola Photon 4G :: Will Not Charge A/C Or D/C?
Dec 2, 2011I have had a Motorola Photon for a few months now and I love it........until now.I plugged my phone in last night before I went to bed and the screen turned on, which told me the phone was charging. I woke up this morning and found that my phone was at 20% battery life and hadn't charged all night. I walked downstairs and tested the phone on another wall charger I have and it did not work either. I then plugged it into my computer and viola, my phone starts charging. On the way to work, I plugged the phone into my car charger and the phone would still not receive a charge but the screen would turn on. I got to work, where I just happen to sell phones, and tested a different Photon battery from a demo phone to see if that was the issue. To no avail, my phone still didn't charge. When I plug my phone in with an A/C charger, the screen turns on but the phone does not accept a chargeWhen I plug the phone into a USB cable connected to my Macbook Pro, the phone charges with no problems.
View 15 Replies View RelatedMotorola 4G :: My Photon Won't Ring
Feb 21, 2012Any ideas why my phone would stop ringing when calls come in? And yes... it is not on silent. Even when I go to the ring tones and try to change to another, standard ring tone, it won't play the sound. It will make a noise when I turn the volume up and down. I turned it off and back on and it will now ring. Worried that this is going to be a routine problem. I have noticed that I've had some missed calls that I thought were odd because the phone was nearby, but didn't think much of it before. Today I was expecting a call at 1:30 so I had the phone sitting right next to my keyboard at work with the volume on. I looked down and there was my missed call. I then started calling it from my desk phone and it did not ring. When it was in silent mode it vibrated like it should so I turn the phone to always vibrate to make sure I didn't miss the call when it came in again.
