[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doctorwhobbc:
Does anyone have links to GSM modems for 2.2 or above roms? All i can find is WCDMA modems. I think this will resolve my problem ive been having for months, which is that all roms/modems here dont allow sim cards. So if anyone has links to GSM modems it will be much appreciated :)

My carrier uses a UMTS mobile network on 850/2100mhz frequency's, so a modem that supports that is required

Thanks

wtf are you talking about?

this phone IS a gsm phone.

the only way to get data/voice on this phone is WITH a sim card, so what are you talking about that every rom/modem doesnt allow sim cards?

do you have ANY idea what you are on about?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doctorwhobbc:
Any rom I flash my phone with I can't use a sim card after that. The phone just says no service and ALL Roms end up deleting the service menu and it doesn't detect sim card. Read my other post in Q&A forum to know what I'm talking about
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
You might wan't to check your APN setting. There are a good bit of modems some work better than others in different locations.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
So you had a thread open regarding the exact same problem, yet you thought it was a genius idea to open a new one?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 98XJ:
Who is your carrier? You haven't stated it in this thread nor the other from what I read. All I gathered was that you are not i897, and have been flashing i897 roms.

Like stated above your APN settings are probably incorrect for your carrier from the repeated flashings.

If that is not the problem and you know to remove sim card while flashing and also unplug the usb during reboot then you can scratch those off the list aswell.

I'm not certain, hopefully someone with more knowledge could chime in, but is it possible from flashing the At&t carrier roms the phone got locked to At&t, thus not recognizing the unknown carrier's sim card? Try network unlocking the device?

Also, you should probably go back and reread you're other thread, I believe there are very good explainations, judging by your replies, that you just disreguarded.

edit for good measure: you are installing the sim card while the phone is off correct? you can't just take off the battery cover and put it in whenever you like.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doctorwhobbc:
I'm doing everything right, and as i said before it does work fine with my carrier (Telecom New Zealand) on android 2.1. I've tried every solution i can think of to fix this, but none have worked. I even tried backing up my working csc files then re-flashing after a new rom but that didnt work either. The phone basically doesnt register that it needs a sim card once it has been flashed. I get the blue circle with the line through it to indicate there's no signal (this happens with or without the sim being in). I am sort of a newbie when it comes to ins and outs of android but i thought it would be worth checking it out if its a modem issuse. Obviously by some of the replies i've got im wrong.

Do you have any other suggestions?

Edit: another thing to add is when i use the caller to open the debug menu (*# something #* ) where it usually has all details about the bands its connected to and batter information etc its completely blank (usually full on 2.1, but blank on 2.2+)

You tried *#2263# ?

Walkthrough:

Settings>wireless and networks>mobile networks>network operator- choose your network<<access point name>(press selected network operator)confirm settings with known provider settings[requires you to search your providers settings] apply. Reboot. Confirm or deny.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doctorwhobbc:
*#2263# is the number. At the moment on working 2.1 rom i get:

=BAND SELECTION=

[1] AUTOMATIC [*]

[2] WCDMA BAND []

[3] GSM BAND[]

[4] COMBU BANDS []

I will flash when i get back form holiday, at the moment i am running the stock 2.1 rom fine on my network. From what i remember once its flashed with or without a sim card it wont let me access the network settings, giving me a message like 'network not avaliable' or 'unable to register on network', thats why i cannot access APN settings.

I'll take screenshots and post them around the 28th? Then you can see what i mean.

Thanks,

Doc
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 98XJ:
Sounds good. In the mean time, under access point names did you try pressing menu key then press add new apn? Not sure if we covered this already.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doctorwhobbc:
I'll get back to you tomorrow/dayafter on that, will flash hopefully tomorrow then get all info to post here.

If the APN setings are locked out use a utility like Tweakker or Apn Global. These programs will bypass the locked out settings and automatically set up APN MMS for your countries telecom. Download from the market by reverting to working rom or using sideloading wonder machine thru your computer.

Here are images as promised:

All images are of the phone with the sim card inserted except for the 3rd image which states there is no sim card inserted.

2.1 with sim card

2.1 without sim card

2.3.5 WITH sim card

2.1 service menu (*#2263#)

2.3.5 service menu (*#2263#)

2.1 messaging options

2.3.5 messaging options are same as above but without messaging center

2.1 recovery menu

2.3.5 recovery menu - didnt get picture, but is standard CWM menu

2.1 about phone

2.3.5 about phone

2.1 APN settings

2.3.5 when trying to access APN settings

And to mikegy2002 heres what happened when i tried Tweakker on 2.3.5

So some things to point out are:

1. 2.3.5 does not recognize i have inserted the sim card

2. 2.1 recognizes the sim card

All other problems are linked around those two points. Hope that helps, and hopefully someone can help me resolve this!

I'll be posting all the images to the other thread about this problem.

Thanks

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 98XJ:
It appears for your carrier you are missing an access point.

http://m.geekzone.co.nz/Forums/39/Topic/32983

you are unable to press menu in apn's and add new apn?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doctorwhobbc:
I cant do that, when i try access network settings it asks me to insert a sim card
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bug177:
I had a similar problem. My phone fail to recognize the sim card a few times when the cover was off. My working theory was that the cover helped to "seat" the sim card.

Hope this helps.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ominous39061:
Great guide, but what if the serial number doesn't show up?

Thank you for the excellent walkthrough. I am following it, but when I enter "adb devices" at the command prompt I receive "list of devices attached" but no serial number. Also, my Nexus displays: "Fastboot Command Read Error -2147483647". I did a battery pull after getting stuck in a bootloop, and am trying to recover. I can unlock and relock the bootloader, but that is the only command that is working.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thepolishguy:
if it does not return a serial number than the phone is not being recognized. I believe that there are 2 different sets of drivers that are needed. Let me look for the link and info.

the fact that it returns "list of devices attached" but no number means that it is not finding your device which means it is probably a driver issue. let me see what I can come up with. But I am no expert at any of this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thepolishguy:
Ok - so I just did some testing of my own. I ran into the same problem as you. And I know that I have the drivers installed. So what I did was try and "shut down" any thing that could interfere with with ADB/Fastboot.

Any tethering apps that you may have - PDA NET, Easy Tether, etc, could possibly do this. Also - when you plug your phone in - and the Auto Play options pop up for FTP (File Transfer Protocol) - X out of that.

I initially plugged in my phone. Opened the command prompt in my platform-tools folder. typed in...

adb devices

...and I got the same message as you. I then "turned off" everything that could be causing problems with the process. I unplugged the phone and replugged it in (and closed the dialog box again) and then re-opened the command prompt and entered...

adb devices

...and then I got the proper return message.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Noev:
I got the same problem with mine i dont have anything like pda net installed but nothing i have tried is able to get adb to list my phone

Getting the same issue myself...help!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] azn android:
Thank you so much I'm a total noob with this stuff but your guide was very helpful!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thepolishguy:
Ok - so another member posted this...

ADB/Naked Drivers

...and I have heard some people say that it was very helpful. So hopefully this will help you guys to get your devices recognized.

Then there is also this thread and the OP said this...

On your windows PC. Use the root guide by bman
( [url]http://rootzwiki.com...nlock-and-root/[/url] )
and download the third option for drivers. Extract all
of these tho wherever you have your fast boot
( for me it was c:/users/thatmayh3mguy/) then run
fastboot in the cmd. The adbapi.DLL file will be there
and will make the fast boot work. I didn't have the sdk
installed ( fresh install of win 7 ultimate last week and
don't have it all set up yet) and it worked

thread...

adb help/getting your drivers installed correctly

OK - here is also another method that I found. I have PDA Net installed and I did not have any issues with fastboot. Here are some instructions that say the drivers that PDA Net use are the same drivers that you need for fastboot. So here is a link to the thread and hopefully one of these methods is going to work for you.

Installing PDA Net to solve your fastboot problems
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thepolishguy:
ah ha - just read something else that I should have thought of...

If your phone is already in bootloader - the command...

adb devices

...will not work. so if you are in bootloader you should try the command...

fastboot devices

...instead and see if that returns anything for you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Noev:
just wanted to jump back in hear and say i was able to get mine working again. adb was allowing me to lock/unlock the bootloader i toggled that on and off then when i went to boot my phone it took a long time to boot but finally did. Thanks for all the help was in a real jam there for a minute. I used the naked adb drivers posted above not sure if that did anything but it worked for me. Thanks again!

trying this with a Linux OS

So I have a Samsung Galaxy Nexus on Verizon and I put 4.0.4 (IMM30B) using the Galaxy Nexus ToolKit on Windows. Since then I've had a few issues with performance so I want to go back to stock (ICF53F) then maybe goto latest IMM76K (I think). I've retrieved the zip file from steps above and untar'd the file, but when I try to flash the boot file it just sits there waiting for device. I'm not sure what it's waiting for. I'm in fastboot mode and then plugged in the phone to the usb cord but nothing happens.

Any ideas?

UPDATE:

I figured out the issue. On a linux machine using fastboot requires super user privileges. Maybe an update to the instructions may be in order?

Atrix 2.3.4 - 4.5.91

First off, I've done like 10 hours of researching today so please bare with me.

I thought I had unlocked my bootloader and rooted my phone in the past. I'm able to tether so that was a sign I did it.

Today I attempted to install romracer cwm based recovery with rom manager. When i tried to install Rom from the sd. it restarted and said "failed to boot 2" after doing some research it said it was possible my bootloader was not unlocked. Now I think i did the right steps back when.

How do I find out for sure if my boot loader is unlocked.

I'm doing all this because Im attempting to get my phone back to stock as can be. I want to get it back to warranty for the following reasons

1) my video play back is all messed up on my recorder. (will a sbf fix this)?

2) when i insert a external sd card to my atrix, my screen sometimes turns black when it wants to).

So this is where i'm stuck. I read the newbie threads. Thanks for all the info. But man this "failed to boot 2" scared me. Luckily it didn't brick my phone. Took out battery and it started back up.

Help please:confused:
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freshbakd:
If your unlocked it will say unlocked in red letters at top of screen when turned on. If you aren't unlocked its possible you have just rooted your phone I think not positive that a factory reset would unroot your phone. Just go into recovery hold volume down when turning it on cycle down with volume down and choose with volume up in recovery both volume rockers are used to navigate and power is choose.

Use pudding thread to unlock your bootloader, install Rom Racers CWM via fastboot after you are unlocked. If you want to make sure you are rooted after that, use the Moto root, stuck at top of the General section.

Most of the kernels around don't have Overclock stable after 1.3 ghz. Don't put it on 1.6ghz or it'll cause all kind of artifacts and problems/restarts.

Set wake_max_freq: to 1.1 ghz

EDIT: you can lower the sleep by one down so that would be 245 mhz i believe. Don't Underclock below 245mhz as well...because 245mhz is factory default i think
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ray1:
This dont usually happen. In fact, it only happen once.

All this while, the display always use the most battery life, about 50%

followed by android OS, about 10-15%.

my phone was fully charged before i sleep.

but i woke up with 5% battery left, the battery info says android OS used 60%!!

here is screenshot as proof.

i'm really confused, the phone state is appear to be NOT awake,

but the CPU usage is 1000MHz constantly while i sleep.

all this while i've been using rom tool box CPU slider to underclock it to 1000MHz, so thats the maximum my phone can go. i prefer it that way so its much less warm.

any idea whats causing this? as i mention before, this only happen once.

Even so, i'm very curious about this. any one experience this before? or know whats goin on?
