[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peoplenamed:
Definitely Software

I have atrix 4g. Running MROM 2013 2 13. I have the error on WIFI and NO Bluetooth. No reboot, but I rarely use the wifi enough to leave it on(conserve the batt). This is a software issue as far as I can tell as well.. I can fix it by killing the mrom service in "manage applications". If I get a chance I will look further but this seems like enough of a fix to not care.. ;) MROM is pretty great besides this issue.(which appears to happen on multiple roms. My guess would be that it started with CM, but only because that is what the roms are based off of that get the problem.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaunis:
Having the same issue. Wifi died after the phone fell off my hands. I had the CM10 ROM by ephinter and everything worked great except the wifi (no reboots). Then I had the AMAZING idea of installing a new ROM and the reboot loop started. EIther with any stock or custom ROM it continues to happen. Tried everything without success.

Have anyone tried disabling wifi in the settings.sqlite and see what happens?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bubba1993:
jaunis I found out why mine was doing the boot loop and it is funny but very weird. I wiped the phone and put my cm7 back on there and forgot to activate my gmail account or any account for that case. Now I have been running it with no problems for 40 hours. But of course still no wifi. I am fine with that. but at least I am not dealing with the reboots.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ptdexter:
I have an unlocked AT&T Atrix 4G with a custom ROM (Cyan 9.x & ICS 4.x). I started having WiFi issues where the device would reboot anytime I tried to enable the WiFi. This all started at least 6mo after installing the custom rom so I dont think its software related. To try and fix the issue I tried doing a data wipe factory reset, at this point I couldn't get past the welcome screen because WiFi didn't work and I dont have a SIM in the phone (my kid has been using it for games). So from here I decided to try and flash the phone back to stock using RSD Lite;

I downloaded the AT&T 2.3.4 / 4.5.91 Service SBF which looks like this in RSDLite: 1ff-olympus-user-2.3.4-4.5.91-110625-release-keys-signed-att-us-gas_na_olpsgbattspe_p011.sbf

I started the flash and left my phone for 15m or so to do its thing. When I came back my phone was boot looping (shown in a video here: http://youtu.be/V9wtBNEWRPQ ).

I can't do a factory reset from Stock Android Recovery (step 2 above), I can't get the menu for it. Now what do I do? Did I grab the wrong SBF file? Currently the only place I can grab SBF files at is here: http://www.das8nt.com/sbffiles.html

Hi All

I have similar issue with WIFI and Bluetooth. But in my case stripe of plastic, between ribbon cable and motherboard, was helping only partially. My pet was still rebooting in some cases. I did notice this problem after try to setup fingerprint lock. It's was not working on my device. I think sensor did die some time ago.

After disconnection of problematic sensor, phone did back to its regular life, without any pieces of plastic:)

I hope this can help to somebody.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JaceAlvejetti:
Alright fellows a few nights ago I Soft bricked my prime while playing with Ubuntu from lilstevie, none the less in my adventures of ADB, fastboot and NVFLASH, i have learned alot, but it seemed i have one issue, My data partition is corrupt to the point that even TWRP won't format it, any clues or suggestions?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kokopuphz:
If you have no file system on the data partition , you may have to do nvflash create, however this will also require you to recover everything from nvflash as your bootloader will also get wiped and should be your last line of defense.

If you can access adb, then you can try to create the filesystem through that. In adb, check if you can mount the data partition first, and from there you can determine whether you need to recreate folders or the filesystem or the partition itself.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JaceAlvejetti:
I have access to the data Partition and media, what lead me to believe i have an issue is I was using botbrew for a while after the ubuntu incident and messed something up so went to delete the botbrew folder, as it was deleting i got error after error, most of which were nonsense things like %%432# and random letters each were pop ups asking to either send an error report of be forced closed, by the way this is on Virtous latest

EDIT: After reflashing and trying the Format all script, it seemed to complete correctly though twrp still wont format /data, I ran dd if=/dev/zero of=temp.tmp in /data/media and filled the partition completely, then killed the file without issue so I'm at a loss

Hey guys, couple days ago I rooted and unlocked my Nexus S on ICS, then upgraded to Jelly Bean but my ringtones aren't working. Either the phone rings silently (when its volume is fully turned up) and ringtones for specific contacts wont work and goes to the default ringtone.

If anyone knows what's going on or can help, thank you in advance. :)

I have a similar situation, however, not on Nexus S, but the problem appears once I installed a Jelly Bean port on my Galaxy S.

Suddenly, the phone does not ring, just emits a warning signal and that's it.

I have a custom MP3 ringtone configured, which is located on the internal SD card of the phone. If I notice the problem and I enter in the Sound settings, I observe, that for the current ringtone the phone displays "Unknown ringtone".

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] electron73:
Hi devs!

Back in the NOTE days I found out that in order to get the native built-in Android WIFI hotspot working WITHOUT the need to pay extra for it, all you need to do is change one line of code in the framework-res.apk.

So I'm calling on all of you to hopefully adopt this for all of your excellent custom ROMs and thereby make the extra tether apps obsolete...

In framework-res decompiled directory tree go to res/values/arrays.xml and change:

<string-array name="config_mobile_hotspot_provision_app">
<item>com.samsung.spg</item>
<item>com.samsung.spg.NewSPGActivity</item>
</string-array>

to

<array name="config_mobile_hotspot_provision_app" />

This completely bypasses any wifi hotspot entitlement checks and lets you activate the built-in AP with no error message!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mrbracht:
Nice. Can you upload a completed hotspot apk file?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nosympathy:
Have you actually tested this on this phone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] praveen1789:
I thought of giving it a try. But I don't see the "values" in the ./res/values/arrays.xml tree.

---------- Post added at 01:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:40 AM ----------

nor there is a "arrays.xml" in the apk.

And I'm currently running the [Rom][7.26.2012][VRALF2/VRALG1]NoSympathy's Stock OTA 100% deodexed, zipaligned rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BeansTown106:
hmm this would be nice as hotspot is basically the main apk i cant delete.. and we had it hacked on the droid x also but i dont think it was this easy we had to mod something in the nv to get it for free.. if it is this easy though hmm...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nosympathy:
I honestly didn't think it was that easy on Verizon. OP is talking about the Note, which never came out on verizon. I have a feeling on this phone, the built in tether app isn't much different than the other LTE phones I have used, you have to rewrite parts of the framework and parts of the hotspot apk to make it not do a security check.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] madmaverickmatt:
Just use hot spot widget it already bypasses the check and activates the hotspot I haven't yet tethered to it but it does activate.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ad78:
I'm using tethering widgets as well. And it works perfectly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wctaylor79:
Definitely hear ya op.. I use wifi tether no problem, but to have one app instead of two always nice. Real question remains if code works with Verizon. Did you test it on the phone or just the code from Note?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tpike:
I'm using Wi-Fi tether 3 from the market, hack the device under options and its perfect. Very simple, been my favorite.

Is there any possibility that there's a trigger in this program that notifies vzw its active? I noticed last night after about 10mins of use my lte signal would drop off and back on again every minute or so. As soon as I turned this tether off it stopped doing it completely.

Here is the latest version for the new Synergy v1.5 ROM:

http://electron73.org/XDA/VZ_S3/Synergy/Electron_Tethering_4_Synergy.zip

Remember, this REMOVES the entitlement check completely, so no matter if you are on an unlimited plan or not, the built-in tethering feature will just work and Verizon won't know :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sensui123:
Might have asked in the wrong thread lol, but asking here again:

electron73, thanks for the fine work on this thus far and your contributions on the toggles (I'm really loving things in synergy).

Wanted to ask, I'm on the unlimited data plan and I briefly turned on the hotspot feature using the toggle on synergy 1.5. It didn't ask for the usual subscription fee and it just activated. Do you still need to flash this update you have for the synergy roms to bypass this or is it already incorporated into the rom? Myself and many others seem to be confused on this and I wanted to clear things up if possible since you've already done your homework obviosly. =P Thanks a lot in advance for the help/confirmation.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ssblood:
In reality there should be no entitlement check. Regardless. The FCC told Verizon they were not allowed to charge for tethering anymore. Part of the deal when they bought the spectrum block. It's being advertised for free here now. I'm on a stock ROM and it allows me to use it. It didn't at first though. Then the rulling and the subscription status stuff went away on my phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sensui123:
Yeah, but from my stock rom prior to synergy (also noted from others), it seems that they're still able to charge this to unlimited data holders (where I fall in). That's why I wanted to make sure, since using the wifi hotspot on the synergy rom didn't ask to subscribe without flashing electron73's fix. Trying to see why and to make sure I don't get dinged heh.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmorton10:
I would also like to know for sure if tethering is free from a ROM like the root66 with unlimited data.

I made a widget with Widgetsoid to turn the hotspot on/off & it works great, but I see conflicting opinions on whether VZ can charge for this or not??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dashbarranger:
Flashed the link posted above for the Synergy Rom - first time after flash I had no notification bar - rebooted to recovery and did the 6x wipe - rebooted system 5 times but the bar never came back - let phone set for about 4 minutes and came back to the bar back and in working order.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NegativeOne:
