No, it's not rooted. From what I've read, revealing and editing system files on an O/S about which I know little and have zero documentation would probably not be worth the effort and risk for the benefits. My own personal view is that if this phone is capable of outputting high resolution...

Hmm. To try to find that configuration file I connected the photon to a computer USB port. The path you provided does not exist. I searched for xorg.conf but WIndows did not find it. Does the USB connection not show phone system files?

Sorry. I see you have given me the necessary info.

Thanks for that info. I'll see if I can find the reference you suggested. Sorry to hear about your file. That makes me worry a little about trying this on my file! I'd be happy to send you my default file if you would give me instructions on how to locate it and send it.

I received the cable today and tried it out on a 32 LCD flat panel. As you said a horizonal display works best. I did notice that the resolution looks low on the TV screen. I suppose the pixel count on the phone is just too low to translate well to a large screen. Or is there some setting or...

Thanks, Airwolf - - - That good to hear!

Are you saying that whatever is on the screen of the Photon will be transferred to an HD TV by using a mini to HDMI cable? So, for example, I could use this to display a power point presentation, a pdf document or a web page?

O Jeez! I found the detailed guideline reference. How embarrasingly easy! :-[ For others who may need this obvious info: 1. Home 2. Triple square (Apps) 3. Help Center 4. Tap tab for "Guides" There may be an easier way to get there, but this is one way.

That makes a lot of sense. I tried it and that worked. Thank you. For future reference: Is there a comprehensive manual that explains most of (if not all) of the various settigns and nuances for this phone. I think I need to spend some time there! :)

My Motorola Photon ringtone issue is even more basic, but possibly related. My phone "ringtone" currently reads out the calling phone number or associated name. I wanted to change the ringtone to something musical. But my attempt to do so has not worked. So I'm wondering if my procedure should...

oops. Was faked out by the sending email address...Android Forums [cory.streater@androidcentral.com] :confused:

Cory, thank you for your fast reply. I'll now be able to enjoy my Photon that much more! Den

Had to submit this (I think) to get immediate email notification for any replies.

Hi, everyone. I just purchased a Motorola Photon with Gingerbread 2.3. I'm a former Palm Pre user and so I have a bit of a learning curve with this OS. Everything I've read indicates that this is indeed a multi-tasking OS. And I've checked the topics in the help that comes with the phone, but I...
