[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M.k.s:
Hi, my screen is unresponsive in about a centimeter thick line going vertical on the left side of my screen. I've downloaded an app called "Touch Test" and it just shows that whole area not able to be recognized when touched and it skips to the left or right. I've tried the "PDS fix" and no luck there.

I've been running CM7 for a while now and this is the first time this is happening today. I haven't installed any applications at all today either.

So I have two questions:

1) Does anyone know of a fix for this instead of getting a new device?

2) If I have to get a new screen or device, is there a way to "relock" or hide evidence of me unlocking the bootloader?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] malfuncion:
You're screen is toast. No way around it. You can send it into moto and it should be under warranty, if you are the original purchaser and can prove it with receipts blahblahblah.

It has nothing to do with unlocking it. The digitizer died. It's like taking your car to the dealer and them saying your transmission went out because of an intake modification. There are laws in place for this type.of thing, not sure it applies to phones or.electronics but with proper legal counsel you can show cases for cars that apply to this situation...but I digress

If you read the disclaimer closely of the unlock it says "may void warranty", which means if they can prove the unlocking the phone caused the fault it's voided. Ie before sending back to moto RSD to factory or fruitcake it. This way they have no way to blame a software mod that caused the issue. On the flip side, you're dealing with big corp, so it could get hairy if they try to charge you and you refuse to pay. You could always try to fight it and request proof of why it caused the hardware failure via software. In the end, it's cheaper to pay the $125 out of warranty claim with moto then to get a lawyer. blah blah im playing both sides, but the only way to find out is to send it off to moto.

Also if you have att insurance this ois 100% covered even unlocked, I know from personal experience. The only thing that sucks there is dealing with the att cs reps for 2 hours. Again, flash back to stock and don't mention the unlocking. If you know how to deal with tech support properly this will be a simple task to get an expedited warranty claim.

Also, if you search the forums for it, this has been over and over a hundred times incase you feel I am misinforming you.

Good luck dude!

Bummer, but thank you for your response.

Another quick question, It's not a huge issue to me right now, I feel like I can live with it for another month maybe. I bought my phone in April I think, is it still possible to buy insurance on it this late? Like if I got the insurance, then waited another month after getting the insurance, tell them theres something messed up so they don't think that I was just trying to get a cheap fix. (which I am haha)

Because I'm thinking if I got the insurance (which I wanted to get initially but for whatever reason I didn't), it would be cheaper to give to AT&T rather than motorola.

I definitely feel ya there. I was making dinner for the kiddo when I was responding. Took me twice as long as it should have :)

I am not sure you can put insurance on a device that is over the 30 day limit. However it may be 60, eitherway you are screwed. It wouldnt hurt to call them and ask though. The insurance is like 5 or 7 bucks a month and in this case we didnt have to pay anythign out of pocket. Also, you may try a 3rd party insurance company like square trade, but that may or may not work.

When my g/f's did it, we just called AT&T and after troubleshooting, wiping, troubleshooting some more, wiping again, they gave up and sent us a phone next day'd.

The funny thing was explaining to the CS Rep how we can't login to motoblur since the keyboard's A/S/W/Q/E/1/2 keys didnt really work, and of course my g/f's email is her name Amanda....@yahoo.com. At that point she flipped out on the AT&T person for taking us from a semi working phone, at least could answer calls and such to a total biffed phone stuck at the motoblur login. Another crappy thing about the whole ordeal, she started the conversation on a tuesday night at 1730 with CS Rep, that one lasted til 1830. At 1830, the CS Rep wanted to elevate to tier 2 "android specialist" (i laugh everytime I hear that), which was "busy" and didnt call back until 2200. That conversation lasted until 2230, when he finally gave up.

At the end of the whole thing, the phone was overnighted AND we got a $60 credit on our account for them totally biffin it up. Thanks tier 2 support! lulz.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M.k.s:
In that case I might actually try to go that route haha. If not, I might as well pay to get it fixed if that's all I can do. I love my atrix and don't want to move on just yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] devlmaycry81:
Ok, for the first week I had my galaxy s2 my battery would be like 75% after low usage. Now after following the root guide. Then updating it to entropies DD I have terrible life. It seems like even on light usage I lose over 10% an hour. I can't say for sure when it happened. I want to say it wasn't immediatly after the root, but within a week of it.

Here's a pic of the battery life:

Well there would be a pic if I had enough post to post a pic. Anyways it shows my android OS using 71%

It shows that I have a 41% charge at 7:15pm after an hour charge from noon to 1pm that brought it upto 75%. The only thing I've done is text the wife half a dozen times.

Is there anything else I need to log or post to help troubleshoot this?

I love having my phone rooted, and I would hate to have to flash back to stock if I can't get my battery issue lined out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cfaberlle:
Nothing to troubleshoot really. You probably have most of the known battery draining apps runing on your phone. (listed on another thread)

I would suggest you flash a ROM like Unnamed that removes all the bloatware and all these battery hogging apps. I would also get an app like Setcpu to set the cpu to conservative to save even more battery.

Good luck!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] penguinlogik:
Entropy's DD already sets the CPU governor to conservative. Anyways, post a pic of your battery usage (by uploading it then linking it), and if your phone has blue bars all over awake, then you know you have a wakelock problem. Search for the known battery drainers thread and see if you have apps there, also remove all widgets and add them back one by one to see if any of those affect battery life.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Misterjunky:
Battery

It's just common sense, before rooting a phone like the i777 it's not much fun spending a

lot of time playing with it.

But after it's rooted and we have access to the CWM Recovery ready to do our bidding

we all get carried away by all the fun and interesting things we can do with the phone

if you get my drift! :) (and it's easy to get carried away with a phone like ours)

I just don't understand how so many people can say that "My battery is great" or

complaining that "My battery only lasts xx amount of hours" with a straight face

because just like any other battery operated electronic device, our phone's battery

consumption is a lot more variable than the weather!

Without conducting tests like starting with a fully charged battery keeping the screen

on until the phone goes dead or playing non-stop music until the battery dies there is

no real accurate way to test battery life unless it's done under labratory conditions.

Otherwise all we are doing when talking about battery life is a big guessing game! :)

Even little things like the ambient room temperature and the amount of moisture in the

air have an effect on battery life in all electronic devices even if they are powered off.

In other words, simply rooting a phone and doing nothing else has no effect on the life of the battery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RoCabye Rah:

Can you read? I said mostly... also on Sprint with official PRL's you cannot roam with 3G speeds, only 1x speeds which suck. PRL updates you may see better coverage but that is it, you still will not get better 3G speeds. If you think so you are drinking some awesome cool aid!

God I remember what happened last time I updated my PRL. Was stuck in 1XRTT for a week. Was very gay, I'll give it a try see what happens... No way sprint would screw it up again would they? lol

Update: PRL 21083 live here in Minneapolis. Hey they didn't jack the 3G this time.

I get full wimax signal at my house still mixed results there. I never use it here since I have wi-fi. Ran a few tests just for kicks anywhere from 2 on the low end to 6+ on the high. When it first came here use to pull 10+ everytime.

God I can't wait for wimax to go, funny there is an ad in speedtest for verizon that says want an LTE network? Yes I do. Sprints 3G is good when it actually works, it use to be the best around not so much anymore. I would be way ok with CONSISTENT speeds of 1,000+ I just want enough to run rhapsody and pandora. EVDO rev B would be a nice upgrade, I hope we see it sometime along with LTE.

I would say haven't noticed any faster speeds at home, but hopefully when I'm out and about it is a little more consistent.

Did three speed tests before and after for the hell of it

Before:

955kb/s 119kb/s 148ms

1028kb/s 50kb/s 134ms

1254kb/s 169kb/s 98ms

Updated Profile and then PRL, got the new one (thanks Southern87)

After:

894kb/s 92kb/s 128ms

889kb/s 366kb/s 131ms

2283kb/s 339kb/s 136ms

At this time of night I normally average around 1mb/s but I have never seen it get to 2, that's almost unheard of here. Closest to that I've gotten at my house is 1.5mb/s. Too bad it'll still probably suck tomorrow when I actually could need it

[HTC EVO 3D] edufur:
99.9% of the time, it IS a placebo effect. PRL has nothing to do with speed. It is a tower host file. The ONLY way it would result in a speed change is if it added a tower with NEW equipment in YOUR area. In such cases, the speed difference would not be trivial... it would likely bring things like 4G where you didn't have it before. More often than not, the changes are in areas where the equipment is VERY outdated and the population demand is high.

I've heard a lot of claims saying 11115 is the best for 3G roaming but my experience is like yours above. 95% of the time when I notice I'm roaming, I see 1x on 11115. I'm wondering if maybe 11115 isn't as good as people say, or maybe Sprint figured out how to disable 3G roaming regardless of the PRL. All I know is that mine roamed 3G all the time on 21081 so I'm thinking about going back to 21081. I wish we knew the truth about which PRL's are the best for 3G roaming!

11115 adds 3g roaming in most areas. But not all areas have another cdma 3g carrier to roam on.

And as others pointed out. A PRL update is not going to give you better sprint speeds or better signal. Sprint has had their cell systems and channels setup in the prl for years. When a new tower comes online your phone will use it regardless of the prl. If this was not true we would have prl updates everyday with tower adds and airaves adds/removes.
