[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lucas_Skyline:
I'm with a problem here.

What happened: I formatted the internal storage with android recovery (no, I was not supposed to do it), selecting 0MB. After this, the rom that I was using (Neutrino) was doing many force closes. It became unusable. The M (Motorola logo in boot) disappeared and in this place was many options (rsd, fastboot...); the android recovery was not working and the touch screen did not recognize the bottom buttons.

What I did: reinstalled android recovery via rsd, flashed another ROM (The DarkSide), reinstalled the M logo and applied this pds fix.

Now, my Atrix is working, but I noticed a bug when I was playing some games... A part of the screen isn't recognized by the touch. My problem is exactly like this:

(I can't post the video because I'm a new user in this forum, but it's in the page 9 of this thread, the post #85, by davidbilly87).

Anyone can yelp me? My Atrix is bell and I can't trade the screen under warranty because my bootloader is unlocked. Now, I'm using CM7 Ba2tF and I applied the fix again, but the problem persists. I think this isn't a hardware problem, because it's happening with many others, in the same peace of the screen.

Thank you!

and, almost same problem with my atrix. after 5 weeks on cm7 touch screen became unstable. apper area about 1cm from upper border not working, and 1cm on the middle of the screen not responding to. I've bought new touch, so it's not hardware problem? pdsfix not changing any thing. i'we tryed to restor pds from nandroid, and no result again. then i'we tryed pds from another atrix...and here i am :confused:

upd: some thimes haptic feedback start working spontaniosly. it's 100% hardware problem - sc maybe

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KeRmiT80:
im sorry guys i moved to sgs2

atrix was great but wifi-bt chip was failing.

anyway screen issues not solved by this fix means are hardware failures or rom-software related.

i suggest to use only if internal partition has been wrongly formatted AND your screen and cpu freq are working as described. for everything else is useless.

cheers
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lucas_Skyline:
When the Internal Storage is fomatted, is there any way to turn it back (I mean, back to the form that it was when I bought my Atrix)? Flashing a Motorola ROM (like 2.3.6 latin-american) will solve this?

Thanks a lot!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KeRmiT80:
cwm corrupt partitions table when trying to resize the internal, so you need to manually resize and format

there was somewhere the command to send using adb shell...

should be in the dev section in one of the very early thread about this problem

i made a quick search "tenfar's recovery" but did not found yet the proper command line.

basically it formats and gives the correct size to the internal sd...

none of the roms after froyo will wipe your internal sd if i'm not wrong, and you know you will face hardbrick if you try to go back and flash it.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lucas_Skyline:
and you think it'll solve my problem (exactly this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z56BSYFh3BE)?

I don't know if you saw my post that describes it:

I'm with the last Neutrino ROM. Flashing Froyo will really hardbrick my phone? I saw tutos that are talking about it and I didn't read anything about it...

Thanks again, you're really helping me!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KeRmiT80:
$adb shell

$su

#busybox umount /sdcard (hit enter key)

#newfs_msdos -F 32 -S 512 -L MB860 -c 64 -u 16 /dev/block/mmcblk0p18 (hit enter key)

this is the command to fix internal sd partition.

but if your problem is exactly the one in the video, and your buttons ( menu, back etc etc) work fine then your solution is to change screen or phone.

its quite common hardware problem, i had with milestone once. no software fix for that.

and i wouldnt play with rds flash downgrading...mostly because neither froyo sbf will format internal sd so would be useless and potencially harmful
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s_spiff:
Ok, So I'm on a mac. I have my adb/fastboot set up. Extracted the pdsfix.img to the same folder as moto-fastboot executable

fastboot is able to erase cache and reboot, so I know the phone is being detected by fastboot. Everytime I try to ask moto-fastboot to flash pdsfix, it says cannot load the image. I looked around, but the last guy to ask this question also didn't seem to get a reply. What can I do to fix this?

I'm on CM7 (unlocked bootloader). Thanks.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KeRmiT80:
if method 2 fails just use method 1.

adb is the way.

Soft buttons

Hi,

My soft buttons suddenly stopped working, I've got a locked bootloader with original OTA 2.3.6 rom, tried this pds fix but it did nothing... :(

Is there anything else I can try? :confused:
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KeRmiT80:
if you have locked bootloader and stock rom, surely you didn't flashed custom recovery, so you could not corrupt pds partition...so this fix is not for you. i'm sorry

"buttons" are part of the touchscreen...as said many times, atrix has screen problems same as wifi bt failures...service is the only way.

i had to send mine twice, that's why i'm on sgs2 :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rafaelbrandao:
Thanks for the reply KeRmiT80.

I got one more question... if I unlock the BL is there any chance to get these soft buttons working again using this PDS fix? :(

what if i am on 4.0.3. CNA rom.

what should i try to do?

i currently cannot unlock my phone at all. touchscreen is perfect. just got it back from motorola!

EDIT: fastbooted the Froyo one. worked. i also fastboot wiped cache. lets see how long this holds.

EDIT2: keeps coming back. i cant even unlock my screen. i flashed froyo through adb or at least tried and it worked, i was able to enter my phone. i did it through terminal. i cannot get su access through my computer. why is that?

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME WITH MY UNRESPONSIVE SCREEN!

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] David Guillot:
Hi everyone

I have a touch screen issue (already described by others, a line of approximately 100px being unresponsive about 200px under the screen top in portrait mode) and after trying the TouchRecalibrate app proposed here, I tried this PDS fix. I could apply it without any problem, but it didn't do anything.

I know what you're thinking : my problem is hardware, and I'm screwed. But here's one fact : it all started when I first installed a CM9 beta (Turl v8), after having used many CM7 ROMs without any problem. I since tried many ROMs (CM9, CM7-based, etc.) and the problem is still here. I'm not a technical expert, but is there any way that CM9 overwrites touch screen drivers or something, that cannot be easily replaced ?

I see 2 versions of this PDS fix (Froyo and GB) ; so my question is : is there a PDS partition I could flash for ICS ?

Thank you for any answer.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leets4uc3:
I was thinking the same exact.

But my problem is that my phone won't respond after it sleeps. I keep using it ics because it is so tasty.

There needs to be an investigation

Edit:, this is SOD.easy fix is to change min CPU to 456.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mystify90:
Hey,

i think i've got a big problem. I tried to solve my screen problem with this fix but after the "moto-fastboot reboot" the atrix does not boot again. There comes no Motorola screen just the green LED light is on.

I'm not able to go into recovery or fastboot, also force fastboot with power and volume up does not work.

In the command window after flashing the pdsfix it seems that everything was ok, i also did a image: img205.imageshack.us/img205/1...mandpdsfix.jpg

Before i have flashed this fix i did not know that a problem like this could happen.

I hope you can help me.

I have the same problem coming form turl's CM9. Anyone have a fix yet?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crnkoj:
Its broken hw, just warranty it if its still under warranty. Otherwise buy a replacement digitizer and change it yourself. Even though you think its cm9 related, its not, it was just a bad coincidence. I had this happen on cm7 out of nowhere one day. I managed to ge the digitizer to work for short periods of time by pressing hardly near the earpiece than turning off screen with power button and again on. That way it worked for anything between 1s to 5minutes, but eventually i just sent it in for warranty.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] David Guillot:

Also it wont register the top row of the dialer (1,2,3) but when i go to setting i can choose all option. I downloaded touch test and it shows the i have no dead zones. It is the same in apps. Does this mean that its software related or hardware because i haven't flashed these sort of thing before.

1- Areas of screen died then

2- bottom atrix menu buttons (menu, home, back, search) died plus shifting touch on screen.

This fixed problem 2. Thanks KermiT. Problem 1 is common: crapp motorola screens and/or flex cable (from screen) which I need to change. I think battery overheating burns areas on cable strips or something similar.

To make Kermit's fix (his gingerbread pdsfix.img fix works on custom ics & jellybean ROMs) work where custom ROMs' USB adb fail, use:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=siir.es.adbWireless

Start from windows, if SU permission fails, continue from that line (SU) on the phone teminal emulator. Worked for me like that.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klamoranje:
Hi,

I know this may sound similar as I've seen a couple of posts about USB audio streaming with the Android-powered device under USB Host mode. However, my question is more specifically about audio streaming from USB device to host with USB Audio Class(UAC) under USB Open Accessory Mode.

I've heard that it is confirmed to be supported and I'm interested to know whether there is anybody who have heard of any news (or rumors?) about the release date of USB Audio class support when the Android-powered device is put into USB Accessory mode. By support I mean that the Android-powered device would respond to a request to open USB isochronous endpoints for UAC traffic.

Download the option for operating system on the computer.

If you are on Windows, install the HBOOT driver.

Connect the HTC Wildfire & run the unrevoked software.

The process takes a minute or two and in the end HTC Wildfire should boot into the ClockworkMod Recovery.

Once complete, the HTC Wildfire will have SU access and ClockworkMod Recovery will be installed in place of stock recovery.
