Bell Network - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just flashed my atrix to the new Telstra sbf, and I'm having trouble connecting to the bell data network. Can someone let me know what settings to use when entering the apn. Thanks!

google "bell apn".
go to setting-mobile-networks-add apn and fill in the blanks
your apn settings probably got erased with the new sbf

going to post a tut in the dev.

No network connection - unlocked Atrix

Hello Atrix owners.
So I did the *#*#4636#*#* to access the phone settings and I think I hit something that screwed up my phone. I'm living overseas and I have an unlocked Atrix.
The phone worked fine (minus WiFi) but now the phone doesn't detect any cellular networks.
Any clues?
I can only think of one thing, I pressed the "USA Band" button but there is nothing else to select.
Please help!!!!
I have the same problem, unlocked Atrix from AT&T now with an O2 UK sim. entered *#*#4636#*#* and now I have no network connection on any sim..?
Did you find a cure for this?
I think people fixed it by sbf flashing, or by ota update. I suggest you flash the 1.2.6 sbf than ota update to 1.5.7. Regarding nonworking wifi jjatrix, there is a simple fix, you just need the phone rooted in order to do that. Search for the thread in the dev section.

I lost 3g access after gingerbread f/w update: Wrong firmware?

I'm in South Korea, using a sony x10. I wasn't sure if the latest gingerbread update would be released in my region, so I decided to flash the firmware myself to the latest stock gingerbread (2.3.3).
Afterwords I lost 3g access and my carrier says it's my fault or nothing they can do.
Afterwards, I rooted the phone and installed a custom kernel and still it's not available(I figured it was worth a shot).
I can see and select my mobile service provider(Sk telecom) in the list of data service providers, but my phone is not downloading any APN info from my carrier.
Any advice?
Hi,
search for APN information from your provider in the internet and enter them manually.
Somehow my APN got two additional letters and I had no 3G. I corrected the information manually and all is fine now.

You need to set up your wireless apn go to:
menu/settings/wireless & networks/mobile networks/network mode/gsm/wcdma preferred (click it)
Then Back button/Back button/sony ericsson/settings download then wait a few you will see it (3g/H) flash on (you do not have to click it it's just saying that is your network) then go to:
Back button/wireless & networks/mobile networks/access point name. there should be two apns
one wireless/one mmsc. if for some reason you have three make sure that the top one (the house icon 3g) is checked or you will be roaming
And always remember to backup your Settings and APNs,and anything else you need to keep. There are free apps on the market to do that but the pro/key versions have more settings and help the developers and no adware. Hope this helps if not all be here tomorrow or i'm sure someone else will help too i do have some apns just tell us what network your on an we can help you set them up. Good luck
No APN info shows up at all. If I go to Sk telecom service center, can they give me the info to manually input it?
My network is for SK telecom in South Korea. Any other info you need about the network?
You can try an all see if i can find it. So give me a day and all post it
Sorry no luck that an Three other Country's i can't get for some reason. It's a bummer
Maybe someone else here can help.

[Q] Help with Rogers Galaxy Note i717

I went through and read everything in the Super Thread - twice.
I went through and flashed the stock Rogers ICS 4.0.4 rom to the phone and then rooted it by flashing the cwm kernal in the instructions. My phone is successfully rooted and it is not reverting to the stock android recovery.
I went through and disabled all the Rogers bloatware and restarted the phone and now it isn't enabling itself automatically. Score one for patience and good advice.
I use Petro Canada Mobility pay as you go. They are a reseller of Rogers and the price is right until my ISP launches their wireless service.
I went through and set the phone so that is uses gsm/wcdma bands only - no LTE as it isn't available in my province as of yet. I set up Petro Canada's APN settings and save. I restart the phone and the phone automatically defaults back to Rogers APN settings. The APN that I created is gone - *poof* I can't count how many times in the last 24 hours I have reset this phone
What the heck am I missing here cause I can't figure it out. Why won't it save my APN settings? I got the rest of the kinks worked out and now this??
Do the Bell and Telus versions of this phone have the same quirks cause if they don't, I'll gladly flash their roms.
Help please!
I would leave the network to auto.
When you make an APN and save it, then select it, it disappears?
Can you edit the default Rogers APN?
Is your phone carrier unlocked?

When I make an APN and and save it, it is fine until I restart the phone. The minute I restart the APN disappears. I can edit the Rogers APN and save the changes. When I restart, it reverts to it's default settings. It is not carrier unlocked. Because my mobility carrier is a reseller of Rogers, my sim card works with it. There was no need to unlock it.
It seems like you need to unlock it, because you can't use any other carrier's APN, you're locked on Rogers.
Have you rooted it? Since that is the cheaper route, maybe being rooted will let you permanently create the correct APN.
Yes I have it rooted. Still the same issue.
Run a good nandroid backup ....
Then enter the new APN into the device ....
Then delete the old APN , then reboot ...
If the new APN sticks, then run a new backup and delete the old one ...
These devices can be temperamental on occasion ....g
Edit :
And yes ...you may be locked at this point, and stuck on Rogers ...g
I went through and unlocked the phone, stuck in a Bell Sim card and it recognized it right away. I went through completely reset the phone again, entered in my APN settings, and restarted. The settings disappeared. I am told that the Bell, Rogers, and Telus variants are all the same so I am going to flash one of their roms on the phone to see if I have better luck.
Well I flashed a different rom - Bell and that fixed the issue. It was the stock rogers rom that was causing me grief.
So my next question is this - anyone have any ideas on what Rom is better? The Telus or the Bell one?

Editing APN file to fix my Canadian ICS ROM issue

Hello,
I have Koodo Mobile which is a sub brand of Telus. From using the Telus stock ROM, the Canadian Custom ICS ROM and others, only the first two ROMS mentioned allow me to connect via LTE, the rest only connect as high as HSPA+.
I'd prefer to stay rooted and use the Canadian Custom ICS rom, but there's one problem. I save the Koodo SP Access Point Name and it works fine, until I reboot and then it disappears. I've tried this several times and on a few reboots, I went straight to the APN settings and I watched as the Koodo SP APN showed up for a few seconds, then got deleted, possibly by some process???
So I started looking for APN files on my Android that I could edit to have the Telus APN changed to the Koodo APN info or create another APN (Koodo SP) that will stay listed after a reboot.
I found an APN file in /etc but after editing it, saving and rebooting, it didn't change anything.
Can someone please help! It's a pain having to reenter the APN every time I want to use data after a reboot.

lte with custom rom. help?

so i have the sunria 1526 cdma variant it was originally a textnow device i got tired of textnows bs and put a custom rom (aospe) on my phone i am able to make phone calls off my ting sim card now thanks to eian at ting but i have no cellular data i have already flashed the lte modem sip found on the rhinonized page but still no data. any advice?
Remove any existing APN settings on the phone, call your carrier, get the APN settings and update the APN settings manually on the device, should work assuming they work on the same bands. Also try removing the MMS proxy port if there is one set.
