[Atrix 4G General] GandalfGraw:
OK, so here's my story.

1.) Bought an Atrix from ebay and had it sent to me in Sweden

2.) Unlocked the Atrix with a code from cellunlock.net

Now my problem is that the 3g does not work :(. In the menu on the top of the phone I can see "Sweden 3g" in the left hand corner, to the right i can see "H+".

Supposedly the Atrix supports the same 3G frequencys as the ones being used in Sweden. But could it be that my SIM card is old or that my carrier in specific does not use the same frequency as the Atrix or is there some setting that I've missed?

What can I do??? Should I loose all hope and throw the Atrix in front of a train and move on:(?

I would be really grateful for any help I can get on this.

Kind regards//Joel
[Atrix 4G General] bl0wf1sh:
You probably do not have your APNs configured correctly. Read up on how to set those up manually on an Android phone with your carrier (just google it).

Note that with this phone, you should probably set your APN as "default,mms" under type.
[Atrix 4G General] k2bikerider:
Maybe this will help,

There are many apn settings, hopefully this will help

When I had my captivate in Thailand, I was able to add a apn and was able to use the data network there, there are worldwide settings there.
[Atrix 4G General] GandalfGraw:
I love you guys :), it works perfectly now. I found the info on wikipedia for my carrier :). Many thnxes for all you guys at xda!!!
[Atrix 4G General] EclipseX:
wow u scarme man...lol after read your first post i'm scare because I bought today from at&a to portugal lol
[Atrix 4G General] GandalfGraw:
It was a real easy fix :), I just entered "settings - Wireless & networks - Mobile networks - Access point names", then I added a "New APN". The only info I had to insert was the "Name" (which is "Tele 2 Internet" for my carrier) and "APN" (which was "internet.tele2.se" for me). After that my 3g worked like a charm :)
[Atrix 4G General] prosumerhacks:
data conxn, stable?

hi GandalfGraw.... good to see ur problem resolved... if u have used 3g for long periods, does it drop signal or lose data conxn... can u tell us if the conxn is steady with no disconnections....

also how is the battery holding up?!

thanks!
[Atrix 4G General] morita0107:
Gents,

Unfortunately in Japan Atrix is NOT adapted into most of carrier, Softbank / B-mobile and a part of data plans of NTT Docomo.

Now only data plan which is able to work, is only mopera plan (128Kbps) and standard mopera plan. repeatedly I have been trying to set correct APN on Atrix but the result was all failed.

The key thing is, all carrier can be worked as calling & SMS (text) but cannot be worked as data connection, including Internet connection and MMS. Actually when inserted NTT Domoco SIM card, we can see carrier name at upper left of screen (in taskbar), but other SIM card inserted, no carrier name at same area.

Someone has same problem in the world?

Thanks.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mokurex:
I wanted to confirm if they are selling the S-AMOLED or the SC-LCD version. Yes I know it says in the product description that it's S-AMOLED, but some retailers just copy off specs from tech site without knowing that there are two different versions. I contact them, but they said "we're not aware of there being two different version, and we couldn't locate the product code outside the box(GT-i9020 or GT-i9023)"

So if anybody has bought one from clove, it'd be grateful to hear from you. Thanks.

Thanks for your reply, unfortunatly i dont have a three sim and it errors (believe it or not) when i try to order some online, so i may not be able to test that and youve lost me on the second part (n00b here) lol if you could explain in more detail i might try that but i really didnt want to get into all that for the chance of bricking my phone, i really really cant afford to do that so are u sure there are no settings or tweaks im missing, will it be worth phoning O2? thanks dude
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
My original O2 phone just put the sim in and data on .Current rebuild has just done exactly the same sim set it all up correct .

Sorry i dont have any O2 settings as i do not have current O2 .

Those are the Pay Monthly APN settings you are using, the PAYG settings will be different....you'll have to google for the right ones and pump them in manually, for whatever reason the automated O2 thing won't send them to you.

Edit: For comparison the Pay Monthly settings for O2 are here h**p://mobilereviews*o2*co*uk/devices/device.jsp?deviceId=667&tab=8, the GPRS and MMS ones may be OK for you the Mobile Web setting won't.

I just like to compile a list of apps to stay away to preserve battery life by staying away apps that prevent your phone from going into sleep.

On the related subject, does the following apps and tools prevent phone from going to sleep. Can anyone verify?

Gmail auto-sync

Android Assistant with auto boost

Current widget

Spare Parts

Thanks
[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
Current widget is fine (even reporting every minute, drain is negligible), as is g-mail auto-sync as long as the interval is reasonable say hourly or longer, whats causing issues with spare-parts?
[Desire HD General] franklin20uk:
how do you reduce the intervals of auto-sync, because I couldn't find this option on my dhd.

For spare parts, I was just asking.

I heard the stock sms messaging app drains a lot of battery too, so I am switching to Go sms and see if it helps.
[Desire HD General] Vispe85:
I'd say that the sms app draining is just another rumor. And for the first post none of the listed drain much. My settings everything on (3g) and not current widget but battery monitor widget and the average drain when idle around 3-5 mA with occasional peaks, due to data transfer while syncing. Also whatsapp on and various other background apps. Oh and CM7 latest build.
[Desire HD General] lampz:

How can I disable Maps and the stock Messaging app? I don't why they are there since I have location turn off, gps turn off. And I turn off auto-retrieve and notification for my default messaging app.

What exactly is Dialler? what does it do?

Can anyone help. My phone is burning insane amount of battery during stand-by.

[Desire HD General] xxDaViDxx:
Maybe Gmail uses push, so updated on demand... (just guessing)
[Desire HD General] franklin20uk:
yes, auto-sync practically is push mail, but there isn't an option you can change it to fetch intervals instead?

I can use the stock email app, but its so crap!

Anyone know any decent email client solution for android?
[Desire HD General] thenocturnalnurse:
same here, maps is a real pain in the arse. It really does drain my battery.
[Desire HD General] Vispe85:
If there's some strange drain by maps have you tried manually closing it from the settings-applications while you don't actually use it? That should do it.
[Desire HD General] franklin20uk:
thing is I killed it using android assistant and they just start pop up again.

and I haven't even used it to begin with.
[Desire HD General] thenocturnalnurse:
+1 mate, I haven't used it in the first place and I tried force closing it and it still comes back.
[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
Yep, that's the problem with closing apps with task killers etc, if android thinks it should be running it will restart it
[Desire HD General] AWBob:
Titanium Backup has been preventing sleep on my phone recently for some reason.
[Desire HD General] thenocturnalnurse:
I'm not using task killers, but still maps is there preventing my phone from sleeping for like 1-2 hours my phone is running 48% while in reality I'm not touching it nor even waking it from sleep. It just ticks me off.
[Desire HD General] Aaron198:
Seriously if you use the "killed selected" option to terminate these processes it will just drain more battery. These processes will get restarted as soon as they are killed. That's the android way. I am already thinking dumping this function in my app - Android Assistant. The reason I let it stay is there are still some android 2.1 users and they need this feature.

If you are thinking about saving battery, root your phone and uninstall all unneccessary battery-draining apps

or use the normal way to save battery: turn off gps, bluetooth, wifi, lower screen brightness etc.(and these are also available in Android Assistant :))
[Desire HD General] equlizer:
I un-installed maps and im good to go since i use Co-pilot :)

No problems with titanium backup pro
[General Questions and Answers] d.2.the.p:
Hello All,

Firstly, my apologies if this seems like a redundant thread. I found similar threads, but none that actually answered my question.

I'm a first-time Android owner, and I recently picked up the Samsung Galaxy S 4G (running Android 2.2) since I've been stuck with T-mobile for what seems like forever. I am big on saving battery, so I'm in the habit of disabling my mobile data when I'm not using it. However, I still want to be able to enable MMS.

Originally I had downloaded APNdroid since it has the option to still enable MMS while toggling mobile data. I know that this occurs through the widget adding suffixes to the APN names, but this device only comes with a "T-Mobile US" APN which encompasses both Internet AND MMS. Upon searching this forum, it appears that this is standard practice since Android 2.1 was released, but I could be wrong.

So I know you can go in and change the APN type to "internet" only. And I know that you can ADD a new APN. Buuuuut how the heck do I add one that works?? It asks for name, apn, proxy, port, user name, password, server, etc. I have NO earthly idea what information I need to provide here. I attempted to replicate the settings of the existing APN in a new APN and then designated one as Internet and one as MMS, but that didn't work.

Is there a way to create a separate MMS APN, or is it not possible with the newer versions of the Android OS?

N.B. I have not rooted my phone.

I am waiting to see if the leaked copy allows for auto update on market. I downloaded Dish Remote (Slingbox Player for DishDVR), which is free and originally available on my Droid X, but it did not allow it on the Xoom. It has now since migrated to be available in marketplace for Xoom.

I got the original apk from another site a few days ago, from the initial release not available for the Xoom. Yesterday my apk I download and installed out of market with no listing in the "my apps" popped up in "myapps" area to update it to the latest version. Updated like I had downloaded the original from the market.

It appeared it populated in the myapps area once the unapproved version for Xoom moved over to the available side of the tablet market.
