[Motorola Atrix 2] SternFan247:
I installed it a week ago now and randomly get this memory card issue....maybe its not the right ROM for me. How do I wipe batter stats?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
I'm certainly no expert, but there have been great debates about whether wiping battery stats (batterystats.bin) does anything to help "reset" across reboots, low-level data about the kinds of operations the device and your apps are doing between battery changes.

From booting into CWM Recovery, scroll down to ADVANCED, and then to WIPE BATTERY STATS. Don't know if this does anything to noticeably or even significantly 'improve' battery life -but you can give it a shot...
[Motorola Atrix 2] SternFan247:
I will give this a shot! thanks for your input! =) which ROM are you using?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Fall of Enosis:
It's best to wait to wipe when you are low on battery because your basically relearning the phones memory for battery charge state.

Wipe (not TOO low!), reboot, charge fully.

Also, is it the OS that is sucking the life?

What exactly is it?

PS: I'm using Romulus. Good and Stable for me!
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
I'm a certified 'flashaholic' -so I flash back and forth from Lithium v.3 to SuperCharged v.6 to Bullet rom to Romulus... all of which are very nice roms! :D
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MdX MaxX:
I don't know what happened. All of a sudden, my phone's WiFi functionality is totally shot.

No access points are detected, and when I try to switch WiFi on and off again, the phone locks up and reboots.

The last time I had flashed something was a week ago. I haven't even downloaded any new apps recently.

I was on jokersax's CM9 0.6.9.2 and 1.0 GHz kernel. After wiping data/cache, re-flashing joker's CM9, upgrading joker's CM9 to 0.6.9.3, and switching to faux's latest 1.0 GHz kernel, the problem persists.

Could I possibly have fried the WiFi chip on this thing somehow? It sounds crazy, but there were virtually no software changes made to the device prior to the incident.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JPBeard21:
Have you a nandroid backup of a rom with working wifi? I had same problem several times and restoring a backup with it working has always fixed mine.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrism.brunner:
I had the same. Mine just kept getting worse, until the phone kept rebooting at every phone call, and eventually every few minutes. Called warranty, and the said it is well documented problem and replaced both of my atrix phones. They said it was a hardware issue.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MdX MaxX:
That's unfortunate. Well, at least I know I'm not an isolated case.

So after charging overnight, WiFi worked for like 5 minutes, then proceeded to cut out again and continually reboot the phone until I turned off WiFi.

I would just send it to Moto, but of course their refurb/replacement units are bootloader locked... I doubt they'll even replace an unlocked device.

Looks like I'm screwed.

I mean, the problem just started randomly; I was running that version of CM9 for a week already, so I doubt the ROM is the issue. I suppose I can try, though (if I even have a recent nandroid backup...heh)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrism.brunner:
Mine was unlocked and rooted. Just flash the latest sbf, and send it in. That returns it to locked stock.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stewartsoda:
He's saying he doesn't want to get a replacement back that has a locked un-unlockable bootloader. That's been happening lately.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MdX MaxX:
Yeah, that's the main reason.

So it seems Wi-Fi isn't 100% toasted. After a few cycles of toggle on, toggle off, toggle on, toggle off, lockup and reboot, toggle off, toggle on, lockup and reboot, toggle on, etc., I can end up connecting to Wi-Fi. It works, but then locks up and reboots after some amount of time (5-10 minutes usually) and then it doesn't connect anymore.

I don't know how, but maybe this could be a software issue? Could some system file that governs Wi-Fi have gotten corrupted somehow by some random process? Is there some system file I should check? Maybe flash a radio? I don't know.

All I know is that I'm gonna easily blow through my 2GB cap if I don't remedy this somehow.

(EDIT: My Smart Keyboard Pro settings got randomly wiped about the same time this started happening, but I have no idea how that could relate...)

EDIT2: Well, never mind, I found the thread in the Dev forum that has a bunch of people talking about this issue. Case closed, I guess, to some extent.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrism.brunner:
I unlocked the bootloader of the new phone. So, seems to me it is the way to go. Let them send you the new phone. Had to combine a few of the unlock methods, but everything is fine.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoodlikegaza:
I just unlocked a warranty replacement atrix with the newest att firmware... What are you talking about...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stewartsoda:
Well, since you are not everybody....

SBF/Bootloader Unlocking Blocked on New Atrix (xdaforums.com)

Perhaps you got lucky when you got your phone back.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrism.brunner:
That makes two of us then. Its still worth a try, because you can't hardly use the phone the way it is. At least with warranty you get a new one. If you are worried about bricking it leave it alone. At least it is useable.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoodlikegaza:
Classic user error. The solution is right there in the very thread you posted...

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jotokun:
If you enable any type of lockscreen security like a pin number, password, face unlock etc. it should lock down the notification tray.

[General Questions and Answers] Juicy555:
Ive been messing with switching data plans lately ( to get 10$ unlimimted for my droid 3 gsm ) and i tried tethering which was stupid because obviously they could tell im on a smartphone....

Basically i was like 20 days in to my 2gb plan ) 25$/month) and i switched over to the unlimimted medianet plan ( 10$/month ) for like 3 hours but then i tried tethering and got bumped to 30$/month. Now im switched over to the 10$ unlimimted data plan again...

I dont understand prorated charges, but what will my bill be?? :confused:
[General Questions and Answers] benthe1:
They might try to charge you the $30 extra. Who knows though until you get the bill.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] sbreen94:
I am running the AOKP-targa-milestone-4 mod of ICS and i set my phone mode to just cdma because data kept dropping. Now 3g and wifi are completely stable and i would like to change the mode back to cdma/lte but my bionic wont let me, i press on the cdma/lte mode and it reverts back to just cdma. Any i can do to re enable 4g?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] projektorboy:
Go to the dialer, enter *#*#4636*#*# then tap "Phone Information" and then under "Set Preferred Network Type" and you should be able to find an option that looks like either

1. CDMA/LTE Auto (PRL)

2. GSM/CDMA Auto (PRL)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] sbreen94:
Thanks a bunch, ill try that-----It worked well, thanks a bunch! Also the app Phone Info in the market does the same thing! :) Hopefully 4g just doesnt drop now!

[HTC One X] B3rtbot:
Okay,

So I've read through previous thread about people's "bricked" HOXs. I've read the appropriate fix threads but nothing works for me.

I am now stuck in what seems a bootloop. When connected to a power source, the phone stays in bootloader and the red LED light stays ON. It doesn't flash, it's just solid. Also, when either end of the USB cable is disconnected, it stays on. I can't boot to recovery, or get stuck at the splashscreen to charge up. Battery is below 20%, so fastboot flashing doesn't work, and also can't install RUU on it. Whenever I power down from bootloader, it powers back on automatically at the "HTC Quietly Brilliant" screen with red text underneath saying something about this build being for development purposes only. Also, I relocked bootloader in a hope to run RUU, but only realised after relocking that battery was at a low level.

I have had two sleepless nights now, and I'm hitting the hay tonight. I am willing to try anything when I wake up to fix my phone. If anybody can help, it would be extremely grateful! Sorry about the length, I tried to explain in as most detail as possible.

If I have missed anything, please mention it and I'll let you know.

Many thanks in advance.
[HTC One X] nteeb:
One of my friend was in the same situation and this method helped:

Download this:Android.zip

Unzip somewhere into your pc.

Download this:Battery.bat

Take the Battery.bat into the Android.zip folder

Connect your HOX with the pc(bootloader/fastboot),then run the battery.bat file.

Whait while your device will be charged enough(it needs 1-2 hours).

When it is charged you can push recovery,or run RUU-as your liking...;)

[Galaxy S III Accessories] ddurandSGS3:
The S3 will be my first android phone worth putting a case on. My MOTO DX2 is a beast and never needed one.

I dont like cases on my electronics. Ive had good luck for many years though. Never broken a screen on a smartphne.

Since I dont like cases I saw these sleeves and had to have one. They are the same material as maserati and porsche interiors. As a car junkie i couldnt pass.

Ordered one in grey for my white S3. It should be a cool look.

anyone had experience with these? or sleeves in general? Like? Dislike?

yeah they are quite expensive. they look very functional and well made though. hopefully it doenst disappoint

Its a piece of cloth sewn together for over $30. Thats the way I see it. I dont see how its any more or less functional than the $10 ones on ebay.

But I'm not saying they are bad, just saying I wouldnt get one!

have you ever used a sleeve before vs a case, wonder?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aami.aami:
i just got my S3 and i m so worried and so sad people! :(

i got the pebble blue s3. i have issues with my screen. i ran the screen test and found the same dark spots on my screen when screen is black. there are lots of them. i dont have nice camera to take pic of those dots. they are really annoying because i surf the internet a lot and these dots are very visible specially in the dark!

the other issue is something with the viewing angle. when i hold the device right next to my eyes (as we all do most of the times) the screen seems to be more yellowish and the colors seem to be alot washed away! but when i change the viewing angle like just a little, i mean when i tilt the device just a little the colors get normal the way they should be! :(

the next thing is the pink tint. in the browser the white pages are EXTREMELY PINK! yes EXTREMELY PINK! that happens at the automatic brightness!

when viewing the black color on the sceen, when the capacitive touch buttons are on the light of the menu button seems to leave its light on the screen. and the blacks are NOT AT ALL BLACK!!!

people i am so tensed and worried! can someone help me out of these problems? i have read that the white S3 does not have any of this problem is it true? i have also read that the dark spots are because of the glu used and those would go away with time, but i dont believe in that! should i send the device to claim warranty and get it repaired? pls pls pls some one help me! i have spent all my money i had saved for the past 4 months for this set and i even sold my Galaxy Note for this! i am so much tensed! pls help me guys!

You got a defective unit it happens. So send it back or get it repaired / exchanged. You spent a lot of money you should get a product that works as intended without defects.

The block splotches are absolutely not indicative of a bad display.

They are present on virtually every OLED screen, ranging from the Nexus One's, to the PlayStation Vita's, to the Samsung Galaxy S3's.

I can't speak for your other issues, but people need to understand the splotches are common on pretty much any OLED. Some can see them easily, some seem to be unable to, but it does not mean the panel is defective.

first of this thread was uncalled for if you found a faulty part just go back to the samsung store or were ever you bought it and tell them the prob they will replace it at no cost second thing is that its a god damn phone ITS JUST A PHONE

third thing is you are acting like a 2 year old crying your eyes out and raging on xda

forth is there is a few forms out there like this one

you could also post this over in this form:)

no need for a new thread and the last thing is the s3 is in mass production all phones will have a little fault you cant make one without one and also you said that this is the pebble blue one? well you probably don't know this but the white one has a slightly better screen look for comparisons on the internet you will find out that the s3 white has less defects the blue one was held up so the parts might of rotted a bit:Dlmao but just go back and replace it if a chance get the white one :D good luck and dont act like a 2 year old on a bad day
