Hi everyone!
I tryed to post this in the Void rom thread but i have not enough posts.
I've installed Void rom and all seems to works ok but i have 2 issues:
1) I've tryed to install Beatiful Widgets, but it don´t allows me to change clock or wheather skin, when i try to download new skins the widget stays on "charging theme list". As an alternative i tryed with Fancy Widget and when i use it stays in blank showing only the clock and the city info, with the city name only and no T°
2) When i use the stock web browser, using my 3g connection, many sites look deformed and some sites just don´t charge, getting messages like i have disabled javascript or just the server can´t be found. Then i switch to wifi and all wesites goes ok. Can it be an issue with the apn of my operator?
I'm from Chile and my operator is ENTEL.
The same issue happened to me when i've tryed with Amberhome and Megatron roms. When i've got back to my stock rom all works ok.
Am I doing something wrong?
Greetings from Santiago

Hi Guys.
So I was finally able to get a cooked ROM on my Fuze using an older XP machine that I had. But now, after trying both ROMeOS and DCS, I'm not getting any 3G signal. What i do get at times is the hsdpa signal, but i don't actually receive it; none of the data services are working (internet, weather, youtube, etc.). Could someone please tell me how to get 3G on my Fuze?
EDIT: It seems like I am getting the HSDPA signal at times but its very tempermental
anyone have a solution?

In start>settings>phone>band do you have the auto in both drop menus on??
also try start>settings>connections>advanced network> in the HSDPA try to see which option is used. try to use 'enable HSDPA Only' or even disable it completely and see what happens.
had the same issue and this seemed to fix it.
Advanced Config Tool>menu>more settings>Comm manager - Add 3g to comms manager.
Open comms manager and switch 3g off > soft reset > switch 3g on > soft reset
Good luck
thanks ill try that out when i get a chance. what rom were you using?
EDIT: nvm saw it in your sig
did you run the network config wizard after flashing the rom?
it prompts (or detects) your country and operator and configures most things for you.
if it's not part of your cooked rom, look for it as a .cab
yea i ran the config but it still doesnt connect to 3g. I'm trying the suggested solution now
still not working....
I still cant run apps like cellular video and the youtube app. Youtube just wont load the vids, and CV gives me a message that says it's only supported to 3G phones. I really hope theres a solution to this since I really love ROMeOS but I want apps like youtube and CV
haha i give up. I officially ***king hate this. I feel like I spent 300 bucks on a phone that is perfectly engineered and has crap software on it. Im so agitated i can't even think straight. I'm really close to just getting rid of this phone and i dont even know.
Well... felt good to tell someone.
I am having the same problems. I am using an ATT Fuze and I flashed ROMeOS last night and now I cant to connect to the internet or use the youtube app via HSDPa/HSUPA, 3G, or Edge. I can use these applications if I turn on Wi Fi, but if I use cellular internet I get a big red sign that says "ERROR" and then followed by "the remote server refuses to perform the request. This address is not available". It also shows an H on the top bar if anyone was wondering. Any fix for this or just try a different ROM?
Update: I tried a new ROM and same thing. Does anyone have a solution? I am sure us two aren't the only ones with this problem!
I am getting pretty desperate, can anyone help?
same problem here, my area supports hsdpa but with a speedtest i have between 24 and 36kbit

go to start>settings>Connections>Advanced network>GPRS "make sure CHAP authenticaion is selected. that is what ATT network uses. then go to Start>Settings>Connections>Connections> select manage existing connections and then go to the proxy tab. make sure your remove both check marks and you should be good to go.
Wow, thank you HackMimic that worked! I tried everything I could think of and was about to go back to stock ROM just to use 3G, but now I can continue using flashed ROMS. To the original poster of this thread try the above and it should work as I had the exact same symptoms you described and now I am cruising along on HSDPA! Once again thanks HackMimic!
no problem. i had the same issue back in the day when the connection setup app first cam out i noticed that it always seem to set the GPRS Settings to PAP instead of CHAP which is needed for MMS and the net over here in america. also noticed issues with proxy selected. glad i could help.
Yea I tried HackMimic's fix but not directly from you . I was reading on how to configure skyfire and they said to do that, and what ended up happening is all of the sudden the youtube app worked and so did everything else. Regardless, thanks for the solution. I'm a little more amazed everyday by the wealth of knowledge on this forum
Hi,
My phone works nicely over wifi for browsing, sync, updating Twitter and weather etc etc. I can look at the Marketplace and choose progs to install and update etc etc. But when I come to actually download them, it just stalls on "Starting download..." every time. As soon as I switch off wifi and go to 3G it works fine.
I do know that our firewall blocks some ports, does the market download over an unusual one?
Running Modaco 1.8 firmware on Teknologist 1.7 kernel, though this has always happened with other versions too.
Thanks.
By WiFi, Google cannot recognize your phone.
Oh, so nobody can download Marketplace apps over wifi and this is by design? How odd.
I downloaded the Copilot maps over wifi via the Market.
Yeah, that sounds more like what I'd expect to be the reality. One of these days I'll come up with a query about this phone that somebody can answer, I think I'm three in a row that nobody's even had a suggestion for now.
Search is your friend!

Sounds like this could be your problem (port 5228).

Being an iPhone 3G and then 4 user for over 3 years, I decided to switch to android. First bought an HTC incredible S because the Atrix wasn't unlocked back then yet.
The HTC was nice but it was kinda awkward to hold in the hand, having a thinner body all around.
Now I got the atrix and its pretty awesome.
I got a Bell Atrix, unlocked it, and installed the latest cherrypi 0.7 on it. I also carrier unlocked it to use it on fido network. There are a couple of issues:
1) I didn't setup motoblur when I first booted cherrypi, or was there the option? I forgot already. But now, when I go to accounts and tap on the facebook icon to set it up nothing happens. I wanted to setup facebook in order to get it sync with my contacts so I can get the pictures onto my contacts. Is this right? HTC sense seems to work flawlessly in this regard. I remember with bell stock rom 2.2.2 I did setup motoblur and the contacts did show their facebook displays. Should I reflash cherrypi and setup blur? I dont see any way of setting up now.
2) I tried to use the mobile hotspot, everything seems fine, but when my laptop or iphone 4 connects to it, there's still no internet. Connection seems fine and it gets the IP too, but nothing works...
3) The wireless settings section seems to be missing a lot of options... such as enable/disable data, data roaming etc.... using a toggle widget for data works, but how come the option is not in settings?
4) I purchased extended controls widget, and it seems that the flash button is not working on my atrix? it used to work fine on the incredible s. Droidlight seems to work though...
5) Sometimes when I reboot I get greeted with a bunch of "problem loading widget". This is really annoying coz I have to delete them and put add the widgets all over again. This happened with the inc S too when I modded/played with the rom too much and got it fixed when i did a full wipe and rom flash again. I'm tempted to do this now with the atrix, see if it fixes some issues.
6) Is it possible to add android native support for more languages? I have searched a bit and it seems that ppl say "cyanogen" or "more locale" more locale useless for me, coz you dont get the keyboard... ( i want traditional chinese inputs ) and cyanogen for the atrix is not stable yet right? Can't we just just for example extract the languages from lets say a taiwanese atrix rom or an HTC rom and add it into the current rom? I could just use the chinese input in the market... but it's not ideal... also, i wonder if it's possible to get speech recognition for chinese language and not just english?
ok this is getting too long, I will leave it at that for now..
It'd be great of anyone could give me some insight into these problems... I'm fairly new to android... sorry if some of the questions have been answered... but I have tried searching already. Could these be a bell atrix problem only? I just wish bell could release an official GB update already... Threads specific to bell atrix is fairly limited here too.
million thanks in advance!
1) I haven't tried cherrypi, but could it be one of those ROMs where an attempt has been made to strip out Motoblur, so Motoblur doesn't work on that ROM?
2) I don't know, but I know it works on stock 2.2.2 and the leaked Bell 2.3.4 because I've used it with my laptop.
3) Data roaming and stuff like that are under Settings > Wireless Networks > Mobile Networks ... At least on the stock ROMs.
4) - 6) I don't know about these.
Since it's so easy to flash ROMs with clockwork mod, why don't you go back to 2.2.2 or 2.3.4 and verify that all your accounts are setup properly? Also check your tethering at that time and other settings. If Motoblur is setup properly once, when you sign into Motoblur from any ROM the next time all your accounts will carry over.
thanks for the reply.
blur works on that rom, it's just that i didn't set it up at the beginning.
Actually, I just did a wipe and installed cherrypi again and this time i did setup motoblur, so i have the facebook account setup in there now. I do get facebook profile pictures now, but it doesn't seem to be consistent. depending on which widget i use, sometimes facebook profile pics are not used for contact displays. It seems that android contact list is kinda messed up. Is there anyway to actually force the sync and merge of all the contacts from different networks and put them up on google contacts? and what is the difference between "favorites" and "android starred"?
@maledyris how's the leaked bell 2.3.4? how's the battery life? any issues? I did see a post somewhere saying it wasn't good. no specifics...
As for roaming settings, I found it hidden under "battery and data management"???? lol...
After re-flashing cherrypi i found a strange behaviour of the battery.
I did a battery calibration before flashing and it showed around 4200 mAh in battery calibration app... then i did the flash of cherrypi when my battery was around 50%...
After booting up again... the indicator showed 80%!!... went to battery calibration app and it showed 3730mAh..... so then I kept using and reinstalling apps... and started charging again at 40%... when it reached 100% the battery calibration app showed 4170mAh!! What's going on?
If you're happy with cherry at the moment, I would stick with that, or try something else. The leaked Bell 2.3.4 is still kind of buggy.
Battery life is better than the leaked French Orange 2.3.4. Sometimes I get good battery, other times, not so good... I didn't fully track down what was causing it.
WebTop was broken. Plugging the device into USB or unplugging it may cause a random reboot. My phone froze and reboot occasionally when using the YouTube app. On some occasions at night when I wasn't using the phone (ie. it was on a table or something) I would notice it rebooting. It's pretty unstable at the moment.
That battery calibration issue where battery goes up after a reboot, that's a known bug in these 2.3.4 based ROMs, but I believe there is a fix for that. I never tried it though. Search for battery fix, it should be on one of the first few pages of the dev forum.
Oh, almost forgot, that Facebook profile picture stuff you were talking about. Look for Photo Unlocker by ChainsDD. Basically this unlocks profile pictures that have been marked as restricted for use by third party apps. Not sure about the merging of contacts thing... Don't they merge in the contacts on your phone already? I see some Google+ and my normal contacts in my Android contacts so I know it's at least merging those...
oops, i just noticed that the batterycalibration apps displays mV not mAh... so not the capacity.... so the max mV is 4200 is seems.
I'm gonna try the ninja rom just to see.
They seems to be merged on the phone, it's just that not all the contact widgets access the contacts the same way I guess.. so on some of them, it doesnt show... like on the LP people widget.
I did another reboot on the newly flashed cherrypi and again... my widgets failed to load except LP widgets... anyone knows what causes widgets not to load?
I also installed GO Launcher EX and played with switching launchers with Home Switcher... but everytime i press on "set default" in there it just crashes Home Switcher.
I will try the photo unlocker like you said and see. EDIT: photo unlocker did the trick!! thanks man!

In the stock bell ROM, you can disable data in Settings -> Data Manager -> Data Delivery. Same for roaming/background data. I can also see disabling the data roaming option in Settings -> Wireless & network settings -> Mobile Networks.

Hey people need your help in regards to an internet/phone issue which has me stumped.
Ive recently flashed a couple of ROMs just to see what they were like and since then have had issues in regards to not being able to connect to the web...well not being able to 99% of the time.
(This is where i need a Jedi MAster)
Ive flashed about 30 ROMs onto my SII with no problems as of today!
Ok first, the two ROMS i flashed were Rarity and then Turkbeyv's, did full factory reset on both, wiped all data from cache and Dalvik and then formatted memory card just to be sure.
I then went back to Criskelo's v30 then updated to v31 as it was uploaded and i thought this may rectify the problems ive been having.
Disc: THIS IS BY NO MEANS ME BLAMING THE MENTIONED ROMS FOR THE ISSUES IM HAVING,ALL OF WHICH I THOUGHT WERE OUTSTANDING,i just cant help but be a Flashing addict lol
PLEASE REFER TO INCLUDED PIC:
A - cant seem to clear this battery image,informing of full charge,battery percentages always stay high on top right indicator then suddenly drops to low percentage.
B - Am showing HSDPA but unable to connect to the web using default browser, firefox although can conect using Dophin HD, first time i managed a connection via Dolphin which again is probably once in 10 times of trying, when i managed a connection it was pittifully slow,worse than EDGE (yes im that old).
I knew i had a problem with the connection when tryin to log into my google account,using the other mentioned ROMs, it just wont let me, unless im using WIFI.
All web based apps from Facebook, Google and the Market simply wont connect to the server,as for all other connected apps the ou come is the same...
C - The other issue i have is apps appearing and then disapearing or saying uninstalled.
Having finally managing a connection using Dolphin HD i noticed an icon had been placed on my homescreen?
also having problems with contacts, ive been using AContacts from the market and when i use the default contact app, they both force close stating "android.process.acore" error, any ideas?
SOooo these are my issues people, thanks in advance for any help given, please note that im not a coder but can follow step by step instructions if given.
I hope to hear from you all shortly

Hi Guys i have a problem with my Lge p500 with GTR rom, when i use foursquare my phone think to stay on Rome but i'm not there, i stay on 300Km.
On The settings i have enabled the position by 3g/wifi but don't work very well.
Somebody know what i must do to resolve that??
Sorry for the bad english
Ok very interesting
I know that locating via Internet is not very exact because u are locatet by the next sending station from your provider but i never was as far away as you xD
What happens if you try to locate yourselve in the maps aplication using 3G?
I have tryed but the result is the same, by using maps, 4square or other ap who use location... it 's incredible ...
okey that could mean that u allow ur phone to use pseudo locations ( i think so because there is no other explanation i could gues)
go to settings-->applications-->development-->and look if there is a tick behind the pseudo locations
I have already try to do this but nothing change....
I want post on the 3d of my rom but it can't because i'm new
Update
Watching in the settings i have find 2 option to the location
1 is called Location and secure and the others was writhed in Italian but opening is the same things with the same options... it's a bug?
