Its the same key I used before to unlock the bootloader. I have retried if 4 times now and made sure I am not mistyping anything.

I did back up my TA using Omnius before relocking my bootloader, but to be honest I have no idea why I would need to backup the TA, I am guessing its part of the bootoader and if so is it possible to reflash that?

Ok so I tried to reflash the TA files I saved and it says failed everytime... I redid it 3 times, all failed. Here is the info it spits out.

Bump....... anyone have any ideas how to get back to root.... None of the commands to boot into recovery are working......

I am guessing the TA restore failed as the bootloader is still locked and I am unable to unlock it using the key code I used originaly to unlock it
[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
I am going to try SEUS to see if repairing it (even though the phone works fine, just not accepting fastboot commands) and see if maybe that will someone allow me to do fastboot commands.

Same results... still fails
[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
I'm wondering, even though I ota'd to 2.3.3, but then used flashtool to go back to stock 2.3.2 and I am still unable to use fastboot to unlock or use recoveryPLAY. I wonder if somehow the boot from the ota is still embedded and not accepting the commands from fastboot? Despite fully flashing back to 2.3.2. Just my thoughts. I will probably have to wait until there is root for 2.3.3 for Verizon (R800X), however if there is anyone that has an idea I would really appreciate it.

bump...............
[Xperia Play General] Dousan:
As far as the TA backup afaik it cost's money to restore it again and it's only free to do the backup. That might be the reason for the error you get when trying to restore.

You could always turn to this (I'm not sure, but i don't think you can reverse it, no relocking after it's done. You'll have to ask about that):

Since we have Q&A stickies in the Inspire and Captivate forums (as well as a few other fora around here), I thought we need a general CM7 Q&A here for the Atrix.

BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS IN THE FORUMS, ASK YOURSELF:

Has this question probably come up so often that there is an FAQ that includes it?

OFFICIAL CM7 FAQ FROM THE ATRIX-DEV TEAM​
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobileweasel:
You know what ? Its a damned good idea. Too many people are cluttering the development thread. Now since no one else has posted a question related to CM7, I have one:

Can someone help me figure out what is eating my battery on standby ?? I don't have that power hungry facebook app and I did some tweaks found ( via SetCPU ) that I found in the development thread, but it made very little difference. The thing is, I just have no idea how to monitor what is using all the power. How did they figure out that facebook was causing a big drain ?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lgd:
Do you use google latitude?

A very good thing is use BetterBatteryStats to really understand where the CPU is being keept awake. The embed battery stats for example only showed me Android OS as a culprit, but gave me no further details..

my 2 cents
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
i have heard CPU Spy is great for figuring out whats using up your resources. dont know as i tend to get pretty good battery life (16+ hours with exchange push enabled)

When I receive a call, my phone goes to a lock screen, I have to swipe the lock screen to answer. On stock, when I got a call, the screen woke up in the dialer app and all I had to do was press the answer button. For the life of me I can't seem to find a setting to change this, any input appreciated.

Do you by chance have Tango installed? I had it for all of 2 days and noticed my battery died about twice as fast as it normally would. I usually get a good 16+ hours easy with moderate use but was only getting about 9 with the same usage. Did a quick google search and verified tango was the culprit. Uninstalled and back to normal. I don't know if this applies to any other video call apps but might be worth looking into.

You need to go into Setting/CyanogenMod settings/Application, check "Use internal storage" then reboot your phone and it should be back to how it was before.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobileweasel:
Betterbatterystats seems to have found some interesting things. Phone on for 1hr and ten minutes.

Under partial wakelocks:

Lightflow: 1hr10m3s

AlarmManager: 58m13s

JuiceDefender:55m44s

There is more ( I can provide screenshot if required ), but those are the top three.

I do find this a little odd. Juice defender was just installed the other day and I can't see how it would cause any problems. Battery was a bit crappy before and didn't get any better/worse. I froze lightflow the other day and battery drain was about the same.

filthyfnj24: Nope no Tango.

I can provide a list of apps if would help as well.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vp294:
I got watchdog and Im able to detect what cause battery drain while on standby. Its the "suspend" service running on the background with 90% cpu usage ... as soon as I heard the warning from watchdog, I wake my phone and that "suspend" stop immidately. Happen to me since I got this rom cm7. It didn't happen before on alien...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wavinwilly:
I as well am having problems with Suspend and abnormally high sensor usage.

EDIT: upon further investigation I have narrowed down AlarmManager as causing a lot of partial wake locks, but I dont have any alarms set and have not synced my calendar and have the Calendar alerts turned off. However Suspend is showing as a problem as well.

I'm using BetterBatteryStats, SpareParts, and the stock battery manager to try and track this down.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobileweasel:
Well, after eliminating Lightflow and turning off Beautiful Widgets small weather, things are improving. Instead of losing 5% per hour on standby, it is now down to about 3%. Juice defender and Alarm manager are still at the top of the list, In 2hrs and 18min I have:

Alarm manager 33m12s

Juice defender 27m56s

So, Juice Defender is next on the list. The funny part is I know that CM7 is causing this. Battery used to last near forever on standby.

Ever since I upgraded from pre-beta 4 to Beta, my phone has had two horizontal deadzone lines on the touchscreen. This persists from ROM to ROM, and is getting to be annoying. I have no warranty, as I bought the phone from a guy who won it in a contest, unlocked it and brought it to another carrier.

Is there any chance that this is a software issue, and can be repaired?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobileweasel:
I got it !!!!

Alarm Manager is no longer a problem. Phone now sleeping correctly. I disabled background date, topped off the battery and verified via Betterbatterystats. Now if we could disable background data while it sleeps and re-enable it when you wake it up then we'd be set.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bleuiko:
Does anyone have a solution to this issue?

When I plug the phone into the dock, the clock comes on (bounces around) and the screen never shuts off. I have timeout set to 1 min and after 1 min, the phone clicks (the sound when you turn off the screen) but the clock still remains. It is as if it tried to turn off the screen but didn't work.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gutterball:
Yeah I do do that "restore missing user apps" and I still get problems. Trying out the new nightly right now with fauxs new kernel and supercharger script for ****s and giggles hoping thats a good combination for me. :D

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faisaliqbal:
I installed CM7 for the first time last night. It is awesome and everything but I'm facing few minor issues and was wondering if anyone knows a solution/workaround. I tried searching this and other forums but didn't find anything [it was a quick search so I might have missed something]

1. I can't seem to change the ringtone. It just randomly picked one of the songs from internal storage and no matter what I do it won't change it. I've tried changing ringtone both in Settings->Sound->Phone Ringtone and Settings-> Profile->Home->Phone Ringtone but its still rings the same old stupid song every time.

2. Phone vibrates too much during the calls. It vibrates few times AFTER I dial a number, when the ring tone sounds and during the call as well. I noticed that whenever I move phone slightly from my ear i.e. proximity sensor activates, the phone vibrates. Any way to turn this off? I've already unchecked all the vibrate settings in Settings ->Call Settings->Advanced Settings

3. Sometimes the phone just loses the data connectivity, both on wifi and mobile network. It is still connected on wifi and/or 3g/2g and I can turn them off and on but still I can't browse or do anything that uses data. The wifi/data icons turn white instead of green. The only way to fix it is by rebooting the phone. Turning off wifi and mobile data or switching between 3g and 2g has no effect. Anyone else encounter something similar?

4. Charging is very slow. I have my phone on charge for nearly 2 hours now and it has only reached 86% from 20%. Last night I had it for 4-5 hours and it didn't go beyond 91%. Do I need to calibrate battery or something? On the other hand, phone burns through battery very quickly; a little faster than even stock. My understanding was that CM7 would increase my battery life but it has gone worse.

All the above issues were not present in stock. And btw I'm on latest CM [25 Oct], with baseband version: n_01.77.30s.qn.

Edit: After restarting the phone just now, I noticed that ring tone is finally updated and it doesn't vibrate that much, though it still does when I answer a call. Still it seems like a bug and changing the ringtone should not require a reboot. Issue 3/4 remain.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rickroller:
I've read about some of the data/wifi issues in the other CM7 thread..but i'm not sure of a workaround. Might want to go digging in the main thread in the Development section.

As for your battery..are you sure it's not fully charged when it's reading 86%? Use something like Battery Calibration app and check the mV reading. When it's fully charged it should be about 4200mV. I've been having ALOT of battery issues ever since going to GB..where my battery will only charge up to around 98%..even though it says it's fully charged. It's annoying as f***, but what I do is (while still plugged in) reboot the phone, and then pull the battery. It will reboot and bring up a ? looking for a battery. Pop the battery back in and it will read 5%, and generally sit there without moving. After about 15mins, i'll simply reboot the phone again (while still being plugged in) and after reboot..it almost always shows 100%.

I started using CM7 when it first came out and had this same problem. I know we can't be the only ones. Well, I just went back to it with this newest update and sure enough, i'm sitting here and my phone won't wake up. It also won't wake up after it shuts off during phone calls so I can't even end the call and hope the caller does. This pretty much makes my phone a brick. No one tried to help me last time around and you've just been blown off as an isolated incident so i'm hoping me mentioning the same problem will bring some "light" to this major issue.

Secondly, I cannot use google maps, google navigation it just says error starting application every time i try to start it up. Any idea on a fix for that? I love the theming and want to stick with this but once again it's causing me problems that I hoped were fixed with this latest release.

Have you guys tried searching for this issue on the project home page? There is also an FAQ with a GPS troubleshooting solution.

If you can't find the screen issue in the bug tracker, then follow the requested procedure for reporting a bug. You'll get a response, but expect to be able to reliably duplicate the problem. It doesn't sound like a widespread bug if only 2 out of thousands are experiencing it. But you never know. The development team can't do much about an issue if people do not follow the correct procedures for reporting bugs. Like t0bld said, help them help you.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phalanx7621:
I know how much people LOVE to post questions in here as if it's the CM7 ROM and get all pissy about how things dont' work, but keep in mind that if that were true and a bunch of stuff didn't work it would NOT have been made part of the nightly CM7 releases. Also, it wouldn't have been released if that were the case. The devs work very hard to make sure most major problems are taken care of before every release, but if yer flashing A NIGHTLY, keep in mind it comes with NO promises of functionality and it is STATED in the OP that it shouldn't be used as a daily driver. So if you have a stable version, such as the lastest stable version found on the development page OP, then post a question or comment here after searching for the answer with search feature here and google. Otherwise, there's a Nightly post section as well in the Development side if you wanna look there and that's what yer using. Most of the time if there is a major issue and you can't find it on the bug tracker than it's yer phone, or something you have installed that is messing with the functionality of the ROM. Lastly remember folks, it's the developers job to make their product work with the ROM, not the other way around. Have fun, happy flashing!

Ok im a new CM7 user and i havent yet figure out the right procedure to post a bug, but here is the traditional way: i have the same screen problem as you, but it only happens when i make a call. Rite after i press that dial button, the screen turns off and i can't seem to turn it back on. When i press the power button it will flash on then off immediately, so i can't do anything. After the call ends by itself, i can't turn the screen back on by a single press, but with a long press, so its really frustrating. I look everywhere for the settings, in Cyanogenmod settings, in call settings, in dialer settings, nothing. The best one i can find is Keep screen awake in calls settings, but it doesn't work. So i hope someone can find the solution to this bug. Thanks

System and Battery Consumption

I finally flashed CM7 (the CM ¬B^¬N, and faux's enhanced stock kernel for CM7). After getting all of my apps set up and calibrating the battery, everything is fantastic, except for the battery. Using SystemPanel, it appears "system" is the culprit. Reviewing the past 8 hours (almost no phone use) "system" is showing 27.2% CPU usage. I've had battery issues in the past and it is almost always attributable to a rogue app. I am not sure what to do with "system" being the cpu hog. What can I do? Thank you in advance.

Screen brightness

Running latest CM7 build....best Rom ever on Atrix (IMHO)! :D

Just two questions:

1) Does automatic brightness work?

Seems to be getting the same brightness in any situation. Brightness change was evident when i was on Alien^4 ROM.

My sensor works well (tested with "Android Sensors" app).

2) If automatic brightness works well, is there any way (MOD, or others) to change the automatic brightness levels ?

In any case, the screen is unnecessarily too bright for me, especially in low light conditions.

I have been having 4 issues with the CM7 releases (From Beta 2 to latest Ba2TF):

1. Reboot when USB is connected in storage mode.

2. Sometimes when I put my phone on standby, and then try to wake it, it doesn't work, I have to either call or connect headphones/charger to wake it up.

3. I get artifacts in Launcher Pro, specifically in the app drawer, rare, but it is there. Generally there is a abstract white icon in the top left corner where there should be the first app icon and once i touch the screen, it all becomes normal.

4. Data does not connect when I enable it, have to reboot to start it.

I am posting this here as the main CM7 thread is a mess. And wanted to know if I am the only facing such issues.
