[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjmoreno:
I just got the Atrix as a company phone. I traded in my company iPhone 4 for it for a couple of reasons.

1.) I prefer android phones

2.) I have an upcoming trip to Europe and thought I would have an easier time using the Atrix over there than the iPhone.

3.) I have an android tablet that also has a Tegra 2 chip in it so I thought I could run of the of the games I got for my tablet on this phone.

4.) Both my personal and work cell phones were 3G phones.

After having it for only 2 days, I am not a fan. I noticed the crappy data speed and also have suffered the network not available errors.

I have a rooted Droid X as a personal phone and I absolutely LOVE it. I travel for business and pleasure and when I do I usually take both my work phone and personal phone and I consistently see I get a stronger and better signal from my Verizon Droid X phone. Even when I had the (AT&T) iPhone 4 (3G) I saw the weak signal and slow speeds.

Anyway, back to the topic of this thread. Yes, you're not alone. This Atrix is pretty disappointing being a "4G" phone and all. Last night while at home I tried watching videos from several sources on this Atrix. Fox Television, Hulu Plus, and Crackle all complained about "a network error" and would take forever to load a video if it didn't error out first and then it was really poor quality complared to what I experience on my old 3G Verizon Droid X. If that wasn't bad enough I even got the network errors popup when I would move around in the Market looking at apps and such.

I am planning on upgrading my personal phone to the Droid Bionic when it is released next month but alas that phone is not "global ready" so I will see what I can do with this Atrix once I get root on it just so I can have a "world phone" as a backup.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djeuch:
Atrix 4G HSDPA+ speeds

I'm glad I'm not the only one!

I'm currently just outside of Princeton, NJ... running the speedtest.net application:

H+ data, 4-5 bars connectivity

Ping: 99ms

Download: 53kbps (yes, k)

Upload: 90kpbs

I regularly measure in the 50-80kbps speeds.

When I got my Atrix, I figured HSDPA+ would be faster.....

(yes, I made sure nothing else was using CPU or the data connection - I run this test regularly).

Admittedly, in other areas I've seen as high as 1 Mbps, but it's consistently bad in this area, even given an apparently strong signal.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] larzred:
I do not share your frustrations. I am on Bell in Canada and average 2 mbps down / 1 mbps up. That's blazing fast for Canada in my books!

Maybe flashing up the latest radio by kenneth (in dev section) may be of some help.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OSNPA:
Huh???

Look in your settings/about phone and post what network type and radio version you have on there. You should certainly be on HSPA+ now with the rest of the US and probably world.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjmoreno:
Is it the phone or the network? Just asking since I have both an AT&T phone and a Verizon phone and have noticed network and download speed issues and am really disappointed with my Atrix.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OSNPA:
The network severely limits non-iphones. Same deal with HTC Inspire, Samsung Infuse, etc. I can usually hit 3-4 MB/s down, 1.5 MB/s up. That's not 4G. It's not the Atrix causing this.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikouy:
Hi, a few days ago I bought the tablet, and the keyboard dock station.

Yesterday, I had it on stand by (or sleep mode, don´t know the difference) with the keyboard and then I wanted to use it but it seems dead. I charged it all the night, but it doesn´t starts.

It doesn´t show the asus´s logo.

I'm desperate.

Thanks in advance, Nico. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fonze73:
Same problem here

I ran into the same problem about a week and a half ago. Was using it a bunch with the keyboard and then I couldn't turn it on again. I was able to get it to come when it was off the keyboard by plugging in the power cable. However, when it was on I couldn't get the shut down dialog to come up, holding the power button in would only cause the screen to black out.

I e-mailed ASUS and they suggested I reset it back to factory. Still had the problem. It is currently in repair status at their RMA facility.

My first guess was that it was software related, since other android devices seem to have similar problems, for time to time. However, on a couple of occasions if I pressed the power button in a certain way the unit would turn on or I could get the shut down dialog to show up. I could never get the button to work consistantly, so I sent it in.

For folks who are interested: The tablet was non-rooted or ROM'd. Had 3.1 and the keyboard was running the software update that came with 3.1. The tablet was 40 series based on the serial number. It had been working fine for about a month.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] player911:
I've seen this lots on Tegra devices.

Solution: NVFlash another custom recovery.

This even happened to me. During a bad flash that locked up, I pulled the battery and it wouldn't even power on. Nothing. No Bootlogo or anything.

NVFlash mode would still register the device when connected. So I NVFlashed between Stock and Clockwork Mod back and forth (this on my LG G2x)... trying to boot it up in between flashes...

Eventually it booted up and I was able to get into Recovery, where I did a factory reset and flashed a known good rom. All has been well since.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikouy:
How can I reset it?

I have to try the most possible things to repair it, becouse it isn´t simple to me to send it to RMA, becouse I´m from Uruguay.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikouy:
I can to power it on! The battery looks in 81%.

What you recommend to do now? Quickly please!,

I do not know how long you'll be able to take on.

How can i reboot it or dont know?

Android Version 3.01

*Edit: Just actualized to 3.1
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TonyCubed:
Hold the power button for 15 seconds until the screen goes off then power it up normally and see if it'll come on. I was thinking maybe it's the Sleep of death bug...

Hey guys,

I used odin to get boot it back up and then I used ClockworkMod to restore backed up data....

After phone said 'restore complete,' I let the phone reboot, but the phone will not reboot

at&t screen pops up and then black out then pops up again then into android recovery mode.

Any ideas?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
Could you please provide a little more information about how you got to where you are? (e.g. what rom/kernel/modem/theme you were flashing, what ODIN you used, what version of CWM, etc.) Anything you provide will be helpful in troubleshooting.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jc830:
Well I had cognitive 4.5.3 installed and I tried restoring using clockmod recovery

the restore wasn't successful and the phone would stay black screened after Galaxy S logo screen

So I turned on odin3 and put my phone on download mode then hit start on odin3

that successfully restored the phone to froyo 2.2 without any of my data

so I tried using clockmod recovery once again to restore the backup

and then... that's where I am

The phone won't boot. It will just go into recovery mode

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
When did you make that nandroid backup? If you made it while on stock, you'll have to go back to stock first, then run the restore command. If on cognition, you'll need to be on the version you were on when you made the backup and restore there.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jc830:
Here's the link I found on how to return to stock rom

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=731989

I've done the first part - before the master reset and then tried restoring the backup and that is how I got to where I am right now.

Do I need to factory reset as well?

If I do factory reset, won't that erase the backup file?

Thanks. I really appreciate your help
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
To answer your question, doing the master clear will erase EVERYTHING stored in the phone's internal memory. Don't do that step now, as you should be able to get out of where you are without doing that.

I think where your problem occurred is that at some point you made a nandroid backup in CWM, and by trying to restore that on stock, it's freaking out. If you can remember what ROM setup you had on your phone when you made the backup, you could try to get back to that setup to use the restore option in CWM.

Before doing any of the things you're doing now, had you made a backup in Titanium Backup?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jc830:
I do have backup made with Titanium Backup.

apps data and everything that I could backup with Titanium Backup

Will restoring what I had backed up with Titanium Backup and then restoring the system using CWM work?

I am currently at 2.2 Froyo, which was the rom I was using when backing up using CWM
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jivy26:
You've flashed 2.2 stock? If so just flash the rom you previously had with cwm then let it boot. After it boots reboot into cwm then perform a restore in cwm. If that doesnt work nand backup might not be good and you will just have to flash stock again and just rub tibu and leave it at that.

**Thing about NAND backups is that you have to use the same system when you restore (i.e. you nand backup usng cognition then you flash another rom when you nand restore its not going to boot).

From my experience with meXdroidMod roms, they suck when it comes to battery life so switching roms might help. But that's just my 2 cents

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsteven77x:
A radio is not gonna change your battery life as drastically as you are hoping for. Changing roms like the above poster suggested is your best bet.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctraywick1:
That's depends on your definition of drastic though. Switching from the .17 radio to .30 radio have me an extra 2.5 hrs a day because where I worked at the time my phone wasn't getting horrid reception for 8 hours at a time. I would consider that drastic but not everyone will have results that differential

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carquote:
Just curious what radio you were on prior to flashing to .30 since there is a newer radio, Vision_Radio_12.56.60.25_26.10.04.03 available. I'm wondering if .30 is somehow better than the newer .03 and maybe that's why you flashed it rather than the newer radio.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PaganAng3l:
I personally get better battery life on meXdroid than any other rom I've ever tried. Most people that complain about battery life on this mod don't calibrate the battery after flashing. Also meXdroidMod is the only rom I know of that uses waydownsouth's tweaKr script that allows you to undervolt your cpu and set profiles that react much faster than setCPU. I can get 20 hours of heavy usage out of one charge, or about two days if I'm using it lightly, but to each their own....

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] copernicus666:
Hiya, i've got to satisfy my curiosity. In any instructions in flashing roms, it is always said to make a recovery image. So my question is:

What is the difference between flashing a zip and restoring a recovery?

I know that a recovery will save setting and contacts etc, but in real terms of "i've got a bootloop and need to change my rom", what would the problem be in flashing from a zip and using my backup root to restore everything else?

Any replys greatly appreciated!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Balu:
When you flash a new rom (zip) the settings, ... are stock (from the rom). After a restore everything is like you backed it up (normally ;)) - at least the settings, apps,... . I would recommend you to backup the apps also with TitaniumBackup or another equal app and the sms with Sms Backup & Restore. Just to be on the safe site ;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] copernicus666:
thans for the quick reply. just to clarify, is my backup (nandriod) was corrupted or by some freak chance i lot my sd with it on, there is not technical difference in just flashing a zip?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Balu:
If you lose your backup (or it is corrupt,...) you loose your settings, apps and so on (->) After the installation of the rom there are only the stock apps, the stock "Desktop",... You could "repair" your phone with the rom, but a restore would be better in most cases ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tylerdurden83:
Will my SGS2 warranty become void if I flash it with an official, yet unreleased kernel (ie the KG2) using Odin?

I'm not sure if the warranty becomes void only if I flash a custom rom, or whatever I flash, as long as it's not an official update via kies.

Thanks all for the info
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
Whatever you flash, be it a Custom ROM or a rooted Kernel or a Mod, you just need to put the Stock firmware with Stock Kernel back before you give it to service to get warranty. And to get rid of any traces left on your phone, just buy a USB Jig (Ebay) and it will even reset your ROM counter, so no one will ever know that you had flashed anything else ;)

Hi there,

I found a RAM optimisation script which makes the phone smoother and faster, but it can only be used with custom kernels which support init.d

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/the-best-ram-optimisation-script-for-android/

I'm currently on the 2.6.29-Zdzihu-mod3.51, Goro@Tsukiyama #1`Mon Jun 13 22:15:22 JST 2011. So my question is, does this kernel support init.d?

Edit: I think this topic can also be used to discuss and talk about the script and to report problems and the solutions
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] iridaki:
I've been using this script for about a week now.

I haven't seen much of a difference but it doesn't hurt either. :)

I am using Cob's GB MIUI, with Goro's 360mod kernel.

I am fairly certain though that even stock SE kernel supports init.d.

To see if your ROM/kernel supports init.d, get Root Explorer

and navigate to /system/etc. If a folder named init.d is there, you're good to go.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Wolfbreak:
Included in my ROM since like 2 Months but with different Values :D Very nice tweaks

vm settings could be applied by sysctl.conf, which its supported even by stock kernel, and minfree settings applies by third party app - so there is no need for extra features from kernel side.
