I actually have already tried that.

I flashed Bell Canada Radio, and then put in my Dubai UAE SIM inside.

Here's where it gets strange:

- It asked for an Unlock code on UAE SIM on Bell Canada Radio

- Unlock code rejected

- YET, AT&T SIM works just fine on Bell Canada Radio - without a prompt for SIM Unlock Code

I'm baffled.

[Atrix 4G General] marine417:
well, i have another idea but it will take alot of time and flashing...

which is flash every latest baseband until ur sim is accepted...
[Atrix 4G General] juzeryamani:
I assume when you say 'baseband', you mean 'Radio' in my layman's term, correct?

I wouldn't mind trying it out, but the thing that really kills the deal is once you wipe the dalvik cache and cache, the phone takes a long time to reboot.

I might just have to do it though.

By 'every latest baseband', do you mean all the Radio versions of AT&T? Or other carriers?
[Atrix 4G General] marine417:
just wipe the cache, dont have to wipe the dalvik cache, and yes basebands are the radios.

by every, i meant like the other ones you haven't tried yet, like the gb retail ones and other carriers but i think there was only can_bell, at&t, and country ones right?
[Atrix 4G General] juzeryamani:
There are about 8 or so, but I'll try them out. Might as well, right?

I'll reply back with updates.

[Atrix 4G General] jb1511:
I have the exact same problem.

Purchased the phone off ebay. got the code from ebay.

No luck.

Flashed every at&t radio but nothing same problem.

Flashed the Bell Canada Radio from the other posting and magically the phone worked.

I desperately want the AT&T radio since my wifes Atrix is running stock rom with stock radio and downloads twice as fast.

[Atrix 4G General] juzeryamani:
I just took mine to AT&T Repair center, showed them the problem, and they gave me a replacement on site which I'm using now. I recommend you do that same.
[Atrix 4G General] xcguy:
Did you try entering the unlock code when you are on the Bell Canada radio?
[Atrix 4G General] jb1511:
I can input the Network Unlock code using #073887*

It flashes Network Unlock Successful then immediately goes to:

Phone is subsidy locked. Please Contact Service Provider.

ONLY EMERGENCY CALLS ARE ALLOWED.

Yet I can dismiss the message and the phone still works.

I can get rid of the subsidy lock message by reflashing the Bell radio.

I would say this is a true subsidy lock but AT&T sims do the same thing.

Strangest thing.

help. same problem

Im having the same problem. I have a motorola atrix 4g(at&t) that was unlocked but I started having random restarts, so I factory reseted the phone. and now the phone is asking me for the pin code again! it was unlocked before, why is it asking me for the code again? anyways im putting the right code that I used before and it keeps saying "unlocking unsuccessful". is that because of the radio baseband version? help

baseband version N_01.77.37P

[Atrix 4G General] 2pizzaua:
I did everything according to instructions:

1 flashed 2.3.4 (4.5.91) with radio N_01.77.30P via RSD

2 unlocked the boot loader and installed CWM

3 wipe cache and flashed radio N_01.100.00R_gb_retail_22sep2011.zip

- tried the unlock code, failed immediately

4 wipe cache and flashed N_01.77.33P_can_bell.zip

tried the unlock code and get:

"Phone is subsidy locked. Please Contact Service Provider.

ONLY EMERGENCY CALLS ARE ALLOWED"

I click to dismiss, phone goes to the home screen but does not find network.

5 wipe cache and flashed N_01.77.36P_usa_att_.zip

- tried the unlock code, failed immediately

have any idea to make my phone call?
[Atrix 4G General] xcguy:
This is a different issue: if you get a message about a subsidry lock, then the fix I described probably won't work.
[Atrix 4G General] el_venga:
same thing with me. subsidy locked only shows up on bell radio. unfortunately only had the device for a while so i could test more radios.
[Atrix 4G General] watthead:
worked like a charm

Just wanted to say thanks a ton... Had bought an atrix off ebay but nothing seemed to work bought unlock codes from different sites. But all resulted in unsuccessful attempts.

Followed the procedure and the unlock code worked... :) :) :)

Few things i noted.

The N_01.77.33P_can_bell.zip under the radios thread here on xda is corrupted and does not work. Found another download link through google. Trying to post the link but i don't know if i have the privileges to do so or not so might or might not work.

Here is the link to the bell radio zip: http://vsbrand.ru/atrix/N_01.77.33P_can_bell.zip

Secondly, after flashing the radio i tried to unlock without a SIM by typing in #073887* on the atrix but the code did not work. Rebooted after putting in a T-mobile SIM and the code worked instantly.

Thanks once again for the informative post....

I followed these instructions with no luck either. My phone is still locked. I called ATT and went into store, and they offered no help, because device is out of warranty.

MB860 Orange UK wont accept unlock code

hello

any of the above methods worked for Motorola MB860 locked on Orange UK ?

i have a code but always get "Network Unlock Request Unsuccessful"

thanks
[Atrix 4G General] EdZ:
Alternate solution!

My Atrix was locked to T-Mobile UK, and was having the same "Network Unlock Request Unsuccessful" error. After much fiddling with unlocking, rooting and radio flashing I'd even managed to lock myself out completely, with the original T-mobile SIM being rejected!

Flashing the Bell radio didn't work, however another guide mentioned using the Brasil radio. RSDLite refused to flash the sbf, but installing from a zip via CWM did! Unlocked and re-installed the latest Euro radio, and all was well.

Brasil retail radio

Latest Euro radio

1) Unlock, install CWM (you may as well root at the same time). There are numerous guides on XDA to do this.

2) Connect phone to PC, drop the two radio files into the root folder of the phone

3) Remove SD card and SIM, boot to recovery (hold vol-down and press power, when 'fastboot' appears, keep tapping vol-down until 'recovery' appears, then press vol-up).

4) Select 'install zip from SD card'

5) Select 'choose zip from SD card'

6) Select Brasil radio, then flash it, and wait for flash to complete

7) Turn off the phone, and insert an original carrier SIM. If you do not have one, a non-carrier SIM will almost certainly also work

8) Start phone, open the phone app, and dail #073887* to bring up the unlock screen (which should already have appeared if you used an unsupported SIM)

9) Enter your unlock code

10) Shut down, remove SIM

At this point, you can test with your desired SIM to make sure the unlock 'took', but if the phone reported 'network unlock successful' this should not be necessary

11) Boot into recovery again, and flash the Euro radio. (if you're trying this in another region, then flash your local radio)

12) Your phone should now be unlocked, with the correct radio

I haven't used it in a while though since I switched to GoSMS (actually Go everything.) GoSMS allows you to easily email it to yourself (populates the To: line and everything) on a scheduled backup. This is nice for those "oops" moments. Like one time I deleted an entire thread instead of one message. Plus I like the Go SMS widgets.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Rainmak3r:
There are also a couple of apps that only deal with notifications: I personally use MB Notifications for Facebook because it has more features, and don't need all the other stuff FriendCaster has
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] juanmaper:
I used Friendcaster but it was drinking my battery, and it doesnt have push notifications. Im testing MB Notifications right now, with the Facebook for Android app.

I loved Friendcaster, but it has issues with messages (they didnt show), and for some actions it open the browser instead.

The problem I have with MB Notifications is that I didnt check the "event notifications" and it shows them anyway.

Push notifications are the ones that the server is who call the client right? so the phone doesnt need to be checking for notifications with some periods of time? So push notifications saves battery?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] loSconosciuto:
Facebook for Android supports push notifications, but there's no way to enable them from its settings. The only way to enable them is to use a BlackBerry (I know, it's stupid). When you enable push notifications from a BlackBerry, then they will be enabled on Android too.

Fortunately if you don't have a BlackBerry you can download a simulator (Windows only, you can download it from blackberry.com/developers/downloads/simulators [sorry, I can't post link]) and login in to Facebook from the simulator using Facebook app which is already installed.

Then go in Facebook app settings (on your Android phone, I think it's better to logout and then re-login before doing this) and choose as update interval "never".

From now on you'll receive instant notifications on your Android phone.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dcar777:
I have 3 email accounts. Hotmail, Yahoo and Gmail. With my Hotmail account, I'll go in and read my email. Then when I get a new email, all the email I read weeks ago is now showing as unread. So instead of the email app showing I only have 1 new email, which is true, it shows I have over 10 new emails.... which in fact are just really old emails.

This only does it with my Hotmail account. I have it set to delete my email online when I delete it from my device. Not sure if that matters.

Does anyone know how to correct this?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] atrix4nag:

https://market.android.com/details?...lt#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5ob3RtYWlsLlo3Il0.

Yahoo: the yahoo mail client fixed all my problems for me.

https://market.android.com/details?...5YWhvby5tb2JpbGUuY2xpZW50LmFuZHJvaWQubWFpbCJd

As of gmail i still get some read mail as unread... only i could do to make it better was reduce the days it synced so less unread mail appears.

Hope it helps man.

(IF you only have trouble with Hotmail, ignore the Gmail and Yahoo part)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] saranhai:
hi guys, i have an optimus v just lying around, and today i decided to try and get ubuntu on it through chroot.

using this guide, i was able to get to the point where it would boot on the command line,

root@localhost:/#

instead of the normal "#"

but after that, i tried to get it to work in a GUI, but it doesn't work?

i tried

apt-get update

and it runs, but gives me a bunch of fails and errors...

so of course, without that installed, i can't get any of the servers or other stuff installed, meaning that i can't get the GUI working...

so did anyone get this to work?

(i'm starting to think that it's their problem...)

thanks guys :)

i'll try to get a photo to show...

[Optimus One, P500, V General] saranhai:
hm that's weird... i have a wifi connection... i tried it on two devices and both could boot up linux, just not get the downloads?

hmmmmm...:confused:
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bigsupersquid:
what version of ubuntu? nvm, I see your screenshot says karmic, which should work.

more recent versions don't support armv6, so apt-get fails to download any unsupported package.

there's a thread in the optimus v dev section on installing debian.

squeeze and even sid run great on the OV for a 600MHz device with a tiny screen and no keyboard :p

try checking your /etc/apt/sources.list and make sure it's correct. It looks wrong to me, but I only use ubuntu for my DTV usb stick on my pc. I'm more a debian user myself.

edit again:

you can manually download .deb files and install them from the chroot command line with

dpkg -i filename.deb

just make sure they're for armel architecture; however, with ubuntu being too picky about the processor type, not all armel ubuntu packages will work. If you search google for ubuntu karmic armel whateverthehey.deb you should get stuff that will work. The main problem with manual installs is getting all the dependency .deb's, apt-get is really handy for that step.

---------- Post added at 01:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:29 PM ----------

ok, that sources.list entry in the screenshot looks REALLY wrong.

there is a stock version of the sources.list contents posted here

try putting that in there and maybe apt-get will work.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] saranhai:
alright thanks... not sure if i get you completely...

i tried it on my actual phone (Mytouch 4G) and on a dell streak 7, both ARM7 CPUs and no luck on neither. i even turned off wifi on my MT4G and tried to download the packages through my mobile data, still no work...

so how would i go about getting the sources list on there..?

and where can i find the .deb files to install then manually? :confused:

thankss
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bigsupersquid:
go to the link I posted that says "here" and copy/paste the contents of that post into a plain text file named "sources.list"

put it in your ubuntu image (or partition, whatever it is) in /etc/apt/

as far as where to get .debs, google for what program you want to install, make sure to include "ubuntu karmic armel" in the search.

since you're using armv7, you can upgrade the ubuntu release without problems for those devices, the OV will have to stay with karmic I think.

your issue right now is that apt is trying to download from somewhere other than the default repositories, and it can't find where it's looking for.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] saranhai:
hm... ok... so here's the contents of the .zip i downloaded to get ubuntu running from here

where do i put it..?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bigsupersquid:
you'll have to mount ubuntu.img as a loop device and put it in that directory's etc/apt/ folder.

probably can copy it in once running on-device, you'll have to figure out where in your filesysyem the img is mounted.

i'm not familiar with the method you're using so I can't be more specific, sorry.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] saranhai:
alright guys FINALLY GOT IT!!

you have to replace the original server in

data/local/ubuntu/etc/apt/sources.list

with this:

http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/

and then it should work! :)

Hi Guys,

If you're one of the fans of LCD density tweak on our beloved 7" phone ;D you're likely to encounter a UI glitch on the stock browser.

I personally love the speed of the stock browser, it surpasses ANYTHING I've found on the 2.3.3 tab 7 so here it is the UI fix, not much but hey! easier on the eyes :)

Simply push/pull the apk with the one I attached, as usual I gave no guarantee whether this mod will brick, crash, burn, or maybe eat your dog..

[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] {Diemex}:
I have rebootet several times and also wiped cache. The density doesnt seem to be the problem. Im usually on 182, but i just changed it to 165.

I just copied the apk to system and then changed the permissions so they match all the other apps.

Hi

I was earlier on XXKP3 (im from India) and my phone was working fine. Last week I flashed DXKP9 and it worked fine for about 3-4 days. After that i rooted/de-odexed DXKP9 and all went through. BUT, I began getting some random restarts, some bootloops which required me to pull the battery and reboot. When the phone booted up, it was factory resetted - all settings gone including APN, etc but all installed apps were there and working. So then i went into recovery and did a wipe cache/factory reset and thought it would do it. But since then everyday i had a bootloop (no more factory resets).

SO i got tired of it and 2 days ago, RE-FLASHED to XXKPE, then flashed XXKPQ on it, immediately did a wipe cache/factory reset and (painfully) reinstalled all apps. I did not root/de-odex XXKPQ and do not plan to root my phone anymore. But since today morning, the random bootloop and factory reset has begun again and is driving me crazy. Once the phone boots, all apps are still there, camera wifi 3g push notifications all work fine.

But why the random bootloop? and why the factory reset every time? i can live with the random restart but not with the factory reset thing.

any solution? thanks
