First, let me tell what i did to my Motorola Atrix. I have successfully unlocked my bootloader. After that, i installed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1169409 but im having some issues on that rom so i change to another ROM which is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1195922 this ROM is really working good except the BATTERY. Sometimes it will say that i have 15% left but when i reboot it, it changes to 40% which is weird.. i dont know what causes the problem.. i did all the instruction including factory reset. Could someone help me? Thank you
Look for the battery fix from jug6 in this thread, it might help.

Thanks for your reply. I'll try this after i got home.
By the way, do you have any battery problems or any other issues on your atrix?
What ROM are you using right now?
Had anyone tried this yet? I am experiencing the same problem...
Hi,
Have you tried resetting battery stats via CWM?
Cheers!

Hi,
I have an Atrix4g international (Uk retail) which is rooted and unlocked. Until about a week ago I had been running Aura ROM with a days 1.45 kernel. This was all good but I experienced some 3g data problems.
In the end I got fed up of not being able to download pictures when I received an mms and decided to flash back to my original rom. Once done I thought maybe the over clock 1.45 kernel would work with the stock ROM. It didn't and failed but I then noticed my wifi showed error where it usually said connected.
I reflashed my stock room from my recovery backup and it started working ok again. Both times I flashed my recovery it said error with recovery but the phone details read as it did before when it had the original ROM as it was bought.
Since doing I this I have noticed my phone being really laggy.... I also noticein advanced task killer that I never seek to have more than 80mb free ram.
I checked this against task manager and titanium backup and they seem to agree with the figures tb actually said I was using 100% at one point.
I even tried a factory reset fearing the hard brick stories.
I have wiped the davlik and cache and perfomed a factory wipe from recovery mode
Looks like I have a problem..
Anyone got any ideas on how to rectify this.... Is it likely to be anything to do with partitioning???
You atrix geniuses out there are my last hope so I thank you in advance for any wisdom.
Are you using the stock Gingerbread ROM from your carrier? If so, it sounds like you might need to flash a kernel that has the international RAM fix. Try downloading and flashing this if you're on stock Gingerbread.
http://faux.androidro.ms/Atrix-GB-Kernel-024r-ext4-1.00GHz.zip
That's the 1Ghz kernel made by faux123 for Gingerbread ROMs. After you flash that check to see that you have more RAM available.

You absolute diamond!
Thank you so much.... Perfect fix 556mb ram free and phones running as fast as a priest being chased out of the playground.
You guys on here give priceless advice (most of the time so glad peeps like you take the time to help peeps like me...
Magic!
I'm sorry but I saw the title and just heard this in my head....
Lag city chick, lag lag city chick.... (Tyga - Rack city... stupid song)
Don't ask.
Glad to see you've solved your problem though
Knock on effect??!!
Although I now have many many more rams than an Afghani goat hearder this process has thrown up another problem. The same error message is showing up where it usually says connected under wiring settings and wiring will not activate or connect.
Yes I was trying to flash back to my stock rom (via cm rom manager-reboot into recovery-restore.....)
Ok so the story continues...
after receiving your advice I flashed the file you linked to. And as I reported ram was up dramatically but then when I tried to connect to wifi it wouldn't. I went to settings -wireless settings- checked wiring on check box to turn it on and underneath in grey writing it threw up the message "error" where it usually says "connecting..." or "connected" etc
I went back through cmrm to recovery mode and did the wipe data-wipe cache-restore rom again but did not reflash the file you linked... checked wifi and worked but ram had gone again.
Went back into clement and went through whole process in one. Ie factory data wipe-wipe cache-restored ROM-flashed file you linked to....
Set up phone again checked wifi and still shows error. But my rams are back...
???? Puzzled!
Dont suppose you have an idea whats going on?

Thats strange cos thats what I was thinking when I wrote it... lol
Problems not yet entirely solved though..... :-(
Desperation is now setting in
Just an update... and help to solve this is really appreciated.
I have trawled the site and others regarding wifi error.
People seem to suggest its a number of things either hardware or software flashing kernels roms radios wifi fix zips etc etc
I can confirm my problem is not hardware.
I flashed back to aura and wifi function is back. And rams up to normal.....
but I have the original problem I cannot send or download pictures when received via mms.
Is there a fix for this?
I assume not and so therefore would like to ask the question does anyone know of a Stock ATRIX international (uk) retail Rom that is compattable with an ATRIX international (uk) retail phone that has been rooted and unlocked.
For some reason my recovery must be corrupt and is giving me jip.
Maybe someone knows why my recovery isn't working and knows how to fix it?
Thanks all in advance...
When I had the problem with wifi reporting just "error", I fixed it by just redownloading the kernel and reflashing it. Maybe try another recovery if that doesn't work, but I don't know why it wouldn't. :|
The wifi problem is most likely the kernel. Since you are on Aura now though with no data or MMS I would recommend changing your APN settings. Try googling the correct APNs for your carrier and changing them under Settings>Wireless and Networks>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names.

Why dont you try Nottachtrix if you want a blur based rom, or Neutrino for a cm7 based rom?
What recovery are you using? If you arent using Romracers recovery, try flashing his and seeing if his recovery fixes your problem.
Hi all
I dont know why / how but my cell radio suddenly went off and wont turn back on.
I am rooted BL unlocked on Nottachtrix 1.3.1 ROM.
I am also SIM unlocked and I live in India. I have the AT&T atrix.
What might have caused the issue
I was messing around in *#*#4636#*#* with the radio band.
I had this signal boosting app which I use but cant find it on the market to link it now. I 've been using this app for a while so dont know why it would mess up now.
I am not sure if these are what caused the issue but just letting u know
Things I have done so far
Battery pull
Different sim card / different network
I tried flashing the ROM again with full wipe but still no luck
Flashed CM7 Ba2tf and the problem persists.. can I rule out that it is software related?
Everything else is working fine.
I am out of ideas and help is very much appreciated.
Thanks
SOLUTION
The Easiest Fix for this issue is Flashing the right baseband in CWM recovery.
The radio is flashed separately from the Android os. Try a new baseband. However be sure to get the right one for your phone.

Issue solved. I 'll detail what I did so it can help others.
Yes. Selecting the USA Band is what caused the issue.
I dint know that basebands could be flashed on Atrix ROMs. I wish I 've known it sooner. Would 've saved me a lot of trouble. Anyway I went with the SBF method.
I had the 4.5.91 earlier but I went with 4.5.141 to be safe.
Everything went smooth but at the end RSD lite said "Please manually reboot this phone" and the phone went into a boot loop at the M logo. I looked around and after a while found that a Wipe fixes it in stock recovery.
1. Disconnected the phone
2. Pulled out the battery.
3. Rebooted and went into stock recovery.
4. Wiped data and rebooted.
5. Got to home screen fine. Rebooted once again to make sure everything is fine.
Then inserted sim card and I had a signal. Everthing is working great.
Bro i have solution.... Btw... You must have flashed the wrong rom.... Kindly download nd install other one ..or use custom cm14 ROM or miui for best experience..
Hello Guys,
Recently i upgraded my phone CM10 with great help from mihahn and PREDATOR95.. But now i am facing a very peculiar problem.Everything was running smooth, but today my phone acted rather strange. It switches to Flight mode and then turning off Flight Mode, to and fro.. It is doing all by itself. So basically i am left without a signal on my cellphone. Is it a bug? Please help
I would appreciate if anyone can guide me in the right way
Thanks
Did you try rebooting?
Hello,
Thanks for the reply,
Yes, i tried rebooting a zillion times...but doesn't work..
Is this a bug? Oh, and i have a noob question, how do i install new CM10 updates to my Mini Pro?

It's a bug, but i guess only on your device. I've never heard of someone others with the same problem.
Try flashing another custom ROM or flash Stock Firmware, that would fix the prob..
To install new updates just install the same way you have flashed your current update. If you don't wanna lose your data then don't do factory reset, just wipe cache and dalvik
I have flashed over 10 roms each time I do a NUKE and wipe all caches and data. I have installed roms as per instructions. But for the life of me I can not find one that will go an hour without rebooting or freezing. I have tried many different kernels as well.
Does anyone else have this problem?
Do your phones reboot all the time?
Am I doing something wrong?
Is there something wrong with just my phone?
Is this normal?
Someone advise a stable version. I just don't get it......
Maybe a battery issue.
I really don't understand it. It reboots when I'm sending a text or searching internet or swiping screens. It doesn't matter what i am doing at the time.
The most stable one I have found to work the longest without reboot is Omega Milestones with 7.13 dormaix kernel. Thats it. But I still have problem.
Please help
It could be the battery dying on you.
If it's not the battery then we could be talking hardware.

Have you tried going back to an official stock firmware?
Sent from my SGS II
I rooted my S3 about a year ago, when I got it first using CF-Root. Had zero problems.
Gave it to the girlfriend a month ago. Did a factory reset etc, but left it rooted. I did however take out my sd card(which probably has something to do with the problem?)
Anyways, 3 days ago, the wifi suddenly stopped working on it all of a sudden. The wifi tab is kind of greyed out and wont turn on or scan for any networks. (see photos below)
I tried turning the phone on/off, taking out the battery etc. Nothing worked.
I then flashed the same ROM back onto it and the problem disappeared for a day, but then all of a sudden reappeared! I thought I had fixed it, but no!
I put back in a sd card,I then downloaded and flashed another Rom(CM 10.2) using Rom manager from the sd card, and the problem disappeared again.
But after 12 hours both the wifi and the 3G stopped functioning
I've no idea what is the problem. Can anyone help me out with this? Could it be the kernel that's causing the problem? I'm not very tech savvy guys. I know how to root the phone, but I've had to deal with any issues.
I'd really appreciate any help, as we need access to the net from our phones. I've included photos below so that you can see the rom and kernal and other details that may help ye decipher the problem.

Problem was present before I flashed the CM nighties, so that doesn't mean it's the issue!

Have you tried flashing it back to a pure stock ROM (or maybe a stock derived ROM like WanamLite or Imperium) ?

No, I haven't. Simply because I'm not sure which ROM is suitable for me.
Could you point me towards a link to that ROM(a version that works on my phone, or does it matter?)
I'm lost with all the different ROM's etc at this stage, and all I want is for the phone to be back working - whether that's with or without root access. It's for my girlfriend, so she hasn't a clue about root etc.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Via logcat you can see messages from android's internal logging system. A lot of times the internal errors you don't see can be obtained via logcat. Look at http://www.xda-developers.com/android/help-your-developers-pull-a-logcat-when-issues-arise/ and https://www.xda-developers.com/tag/logcat/ for more info.
Can anyone just suggest to me a way to get the phone back to it's original state either rooted or unrooted...I don't care.
I just need to get the phone fixed so that my g.friend has a phone that has wifi working properly.
Do I need a different kernel or something? I'm lost, so any help as to what direction to that is appreciated.
