http://phandroid.com/2011/06/13/motorola-looking-to-change-their-bootloader-policy-and-image-in-the-process/

I will believe is when I see it..... Also remember that the carrier still gets the final say so just because Motorola release the bootloader does not mean the carrier will authorize it and not to forget that a unlock bootloader does not make loading unauthorized software on your device ok because it still will be a TOS volation...
Not a Win, Win.....

Is the software upgrade img 1.9 coming to motorola boxes

Is the software upgrade img 1.9 coming to motorola boxes or just cisco boxes, and when is it coming to SE Pa?

All boxes (Moto and Cisco) will be upgraded to 1.9a. When is another story. SE PA (VHO8 was supposed to get it last week, but something stopped the push. Any dates would be a guess.

Why does my iPhone no longer give me the option to connect to my tv via Apple TV when on Safari as it previously did following my latest software upgrade?

Same phone, same tv, same broadband network so everything the same so I assumed that it would.....just work!!! :-)
I'm away this weekend but I'm going to turn off and reload the Apple TV to see if that might work.
If not I may be begging your assistance again next week!!!

Problems with new software upgrade to 6.0 bundle 2534 v6.0.0.570

Hi - I hope someone can help me with this:
I synchronised my Bold 9700 with my desktop yesterday and the desktop manager requested I complete a software upgrade for the device.
When my BB 9700 had fully rebooted from this process, there was a completely different interface and many of my settings had changed. I have not had enough time to fully explore all the changes, but the most annoying is the loss of my "classic ring tone". I have gone into the menu for ring tones, which seems to have slimmed down considerably from the previous version. The new set of ring tones are not to my liking and there is nothing like my old ring tone available. The nearest one rings only once and the volume is insufficient - I have already missed several calls as a result.
I am with O2 via Carphone Warehouse, whose customer support were unable to assist yesterday.
Grateful for any advice as to how I can get my ringtone back - and also curious to know why BB think the new ring tones are good enough for this new release. They are sub-standard in my opinion.
Many thanks

Unlocked bootloader kills BIONZ processing?

Theres any info/confirmation from Sony thats Z1 really loses BIONZ processing when unlock bootloader???
I compared several photos taken before and after unlocking the bootloader and theres no quality loss or gain of any kind.
And theres still the warning on Sony's website that only ROMs below .290 who lose camera "functionality";
"Known issues
To unlock the Xperia ™ Z1 boot loader, you must make sure your device is on software build 14.2.A.0.290 (Android 4.3) or later. Unlocking the boot loader on earlier software versions will stop the camera functionality.
Some customers with unlocked boot loaders have experienced problems When They are accepting upgrades over the air (FOTA - Firmware upgrade Over The Air). For customers that have unlocked the boot loader, please do not accept any over the air upgrades. For additional information, check out the hints and tips from the community on the XDA forum. "
http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/
Does anyone have more information?
Cheers!

There is an issue with firmware below that stated in which the camera will not work at all but as stated in 4.3 this was fixed - The OTA with unlocked bootloader won't work as modified software will be detected and could brick your device - XDA has also made this quite clear

Since the software upgrade connecting to hotspot from my iphone with my ipad is not working.

Since the software upgrade , I cannot connect my ipad2 to my iphone 4s via the phones hotspot. Regular wifi is ok. Is anyone else having this problem? I tried resetting the network settings on the ipad, but it didn't help. The ipad sees the hotspot, but doesn't connect. My phone service is with Verizon.

I think I solved the problem. I did a network reset on both the ipad and iphone. So far so good.

You should be syncing all your contacts and calendars with your computer, either via iCloud or iTunes, so it is easy to re-sync them back to the phone after you restore.

IPod Touch skips, stutters, glitches through songs since software upgrade!

Hi everyone,
*Since I upgraded my iPod Touch* to the latest available software update +(for the 1st Gen is 3.1.3)+, it has become *unable to properly play any music encoded above 128kbps*. Before the upgrade, my iPod could play music encoded in any higher bitrates like a champ! All the way to 320kbps, variable, even Apple Lossless format used to play flawlessly.
Suddenly after the last *firmware update*, most of the songs in my iPod Touch would *skip, glitch and garble, making electronic glitches and annoying noises* for no apparent reason. On occasion, the iPod would even *add several second of silence in the middle of random songs*. It's bizarre!
It definitely took me a while to figure it out, and spent weeks testing and researching what could be the problem. It was truly driving me nuts! The result of all these tests was clear: the *iPod Touch now CHOKES on any music file encoded higher than 128 kbps ACC*. Truly pathetic for such an expensive little jukebox. Even the early MP3 players I owned 10 years ago were able to play variable rate MP3 files without a glitch. *_This is a major bug that needs to be solved_*.
For those interested, I did the following tests through my weeks of research to find out the culprit to this problem:
- - - Reinstalled the device software
- - - Reformatted the device, then updated the software
- - - Uninstalled all apps, reinstalled and tested my music after reinstalling each app
- - - Disabled Wi-Fi (no difference)
- - - Copied over my music library from scratch, several times (it was painful)
- - - Reformatted a few albums in different bitrates, from 96kbps, all the way to 320kbps, both in constant and variable rates, and tested them one by one. This took days.
In the end, there is one thing that was consistently clear: *any songs encoded over 128kbps would skip, glitch and sound corrupted. Time after time*. All those music files I had encoded at higher rates +(192 kbps, variable 240 kbps and beyond)+ would make the iPod choke.
There is one temporary solution to this mess, but it involves reducing the quality of your music files: The only way I can now play my music collection in my iPod Touch without skips and glitches is by downconverting my files to the now *obsolete 128kbps*. Only when I converted my music to 128kbps, the annoying skips and glitches stopped. For an audiophile like myself, this was an absolutely painful decision, as I can tell the *obvious loss in quality and nuance in my music files since i had to downconvert them*.
Funny: this skipping problem *also affects any files purchased from iTunes* +(encoded at 240 kbps variable rate)+. Should I ask for my money back, Apple?
I find this irritating and painful, since *the ONE THING the iPod is supposed to do well* (aside from apps, games, and web browsing) *is to PLAY AUDIO AND MUSIC FILES*.
I spent a lot of money on this machine, and until recently it worked like magic; I just wished it played music again like it's supposed to. It's what the iPod was built to do. *Apple: Please fix the software!*
I wonder if there's a forum where I could post my detailed findings, so Apple engineers can take note of this *MAJOR BUG*.
PS: I have recently learned this is a very common bug, and tons of people are reaching out telling me they are experiencing the same annoying problems. Furthermore, *this seems to affect not just the 1st Gen, but ALL generations of the iPod Touch*. It's a *widespread software issue* that was not properly addressed in the latest software upgrade. I'm starting to worry about Apple's quality assurance process.

Hi everyone. Thanks to a tip in another forum, I think I had a breakthrough regarding this problem. I have the strong suspicion it's not the software for the iPod Touch, but instead, the problem comes from *iTunes and how it handles USB 2.0 transfers*.
To make a long story short, all your *music that's encoded above 128 kbps gets corrupted when you transfer it to your Touch from iTunes through your USB 2.0 connection*. That's where the problem is!
I performed this simple test:
*PART 1 - WIFI*
- I connected my iPod Touch via Wi-Fi to the iTunes Store. Bought an album encoded at a very high bitrate (Coldplay's "Viva la Vida", encoded at 256KBPS).
- Downloaded the Coldplay album directly to my iPod Touch via Wi-Fi.
- Tested every song in the album, and they all played flawlessly.
*PART 2 - USB 2.0*
- Now, I erased the Coldplay album from my iPod Touch.
- Connected my iPod Touch to my computer, and downloaded the album again via iTunes. I copied the very same album to my iPod Touch, this time using the USB 2.0 connection.
- I tested every song in the album. Guess what: most of them are corrupted, skipping, glitching, making garbled noises.
I think a reached a minor "eureka" moment. *It's not the iPod Touch software: It's iTunes, and how iTunes deals with your USB 2.0 connection*.
Now, I'm not an engineer, and I don't know how to fix this problem. I wonder if there's anyone out there there that knows why high bitrate files get corrupted during the file transfer. Hope anyone can shed some additional light on this issue, so we can find a solution.

As I downloaded new software upgrade in my iPod nano 7 th gen and also new iTunes upgrade then all data on my iPod got erased and now when I am trying to sync it again then sync button is disabled on the windows screen . Kindly help

As I downloaded new software upgrade in my iPod nano 7 th gen and also new iTunes upgrade then all data on my iPod got erased and now when I am trying to sync it again then sync button is disabled on the windows screen . Kindly help

From the OP: "My old computer got a virus and when that happened all my music was lost. "
They don't have the music on their computer so they cannot transfer the iTunes folder, from the computer to their iPod and then to the new computer. And if they try to enable disk use on the iPod it will erase all the music that is on it. The method you cited is moving the files in a data format using the iPod as a flash drive. It doesn't work if they are in music format. That is why I suggested Yamipod.

WARNING - Software Upgrade 7.0.0 Bundle 2406 and texts

I installed Blackberry software upgrade 7.0.0 Bundle 2406 yesterday on my Torch 9860 and when it had completed and installed and uploaded, more than 90% of my text messages had been erased (over 120 SMS messages from friends and family). I am realy annoyed that Blackberry did not warn this would happen before I installed it or I would have backed them up first. Does anyone know how to retrieve SMS texts or have they disappeared forever??

"Field Upgrade Software (FUS) is a special AES package that contains several system related component upgrades. These include the bootloader, field recovery image, and FPGA/MCU firmware. Installing the FUS image requires special attention because it installs some critical firmware. The FUS image is independent of the runtime image"
Yes, this is highly recomended to do this upgrade. Otherwise you may have wired issues of APs are not working as expected.

3502I access point unsuccessful software upgrade

Hi all. I have a trouble with AIR-CAP3502I-R-K9 AP and I want to ask help.
I tried to upgrade IOS software in ap because it was connecting and disconnecting to controller too often. I already upgraded one of two access point and it working stable at this time, but the second one not.
I tried to make software upgrade:
ap: set IP_ADDR 192.168.100.100
ap: set NETMASK 255.255.255.0
ap: set DEFAULT_ROUTER 192.168.100.1

ap: flash_init
ap: tar -xtract tftp://192.168.100.101/ap3g1-k9w8-xx.152-2.JB.tar flash:
After that software was donwloaded to ap and self-extracted.
And when I'm trying to boot ap after upgrade I see such messages:

INVALID CHECKSUM: Motorola SBG6580 wireless modem router and software updates (10.7.4)

Tried to install 10.7.4 via software update dropdown on my MacMini over ethernet on my home computer network, failed. Downloaded Combo Client 10.7.4 update from apple.com. Downloaded fine. Failed to mount with invalid checksum error. Tried to download on Win7 Dell laptop on my same home network via Wi-Fi, and copied to MacMini via USB flashdrive. Copied ok, but mounting returned invalid checksum again. Went to work, downloaded Combo Client 10.7.4 onto USB flashdrive, came home, copied it, mounted and installed just fine!
So, kept trying to download Combo Client from apple.com on my home MacMini. Kept failing, invalid checksum. Did this about 20 times during a few days, and actually got two of them to mount without the checksum error. Realized that something in my network was failing, intermittently.
Figured at this point it was either the Motorola SBG6580 modem wireless router or Comcast cable ISP service.
Went to best buy and bought a new Motorola SurfBoard SBG6580. Installed it, provisioned it with Comcast. Took about 20 mins with Comcast pushing over the same new Motorola firmware that was released in MID FEB 2012. I think it is 3.3.1. Tried to download Combo Client and invalid checksum again. Installed a new Motorola SurfBoard SB6121 modem (which has a very different firmware BTW) and it download and mounted the Combo Client 10.7.4 update just fine!
Realized it was the firmware that was causing it, not a broken modem.
Comcast pushes over cable automatically new firmware that is given to them by Motorola. Apparently no did a thorough check large DMG files that require a checksum and it is therefore somehow corrupting them when downloading. Earlier this year the firmware was updated 3.1 to 3.3.1 then Comcast pulled it and downgraded all SBG6580 back to 3.1. Then in mid Feb they reuploaded 3.3.1 firmware. That is the one causing the problems.
You can either wait it out till they push a new one that fixes it, and have all your large DMG files transferred from another internet connection and copy them over, or just get rid of that horrible SBG6580. That is what I did and now using a Motorola SB6121 modem with a Cisco EA2700 wireless routher.
Let me know if any of you are also experiencing this issue and if/when Comcast/Motorola will fix it.

No, nothing custom that I did. Besides turning off the WPS thing as a possible security problem (we dont need it anyway) and setting the wireless passwords/SSID/channel stuff, everything is as it was factory or changed by Comcasts profile.
It's obvious if you replaced the SBG6580 with a two-peice combo and the problem went away, that it seems to be with the SBG6580. Just weird to me becuase a problem like that would almost seem more like a hard disk or web browser problem. TCP/IP has a checksum/retransmission layer or protocol built in, if short or defective packets show up, they would be sent again.
I mean I've seen like cheap 24 port 10/100mb switches running at 100% throughput, to the point they reboot. Anything connected to them stops or slows down but generally get going where they left off, unless the connection got severed.
I'm just saying a bad iso or dmg file, had to had bytes changed or missing, like the web browsers buffer or a bad block write on the disk drive saving it. There was a lot of talk about the SBG6580 on dslreports and comcast discussion groups, would be interesting to see if anyone else mentioned it for that model.
