Bought the Atrix last week and unlocked it with the help from the webshop as I'm in Belgium, no problem connecting to Mobistar wich is my provider and data connections works great. But I'm having real problems making phonecalls and recieving calls; the phone reboots or the dialer hangs and it looks like a call is going on when it's not, phone still works but flashing green in the notification area and it's impossible to hang up, need to reboot. This happens like 80% of the times I try to make a call. After a reboot it works fine to call and hang-up one or two times then it crashes again.
Also noted that my Dialer often runs twice in the Running Apps manager - is that normal??
Anyone having the same issues or know what to do, reinstall the Dialer app --> if so how? Is it a hardware or software problem??
A little more info: when I recieved the device it was in a sealed Atrix box but the phone was used and already had an active Blur account so I had to do a hard reset to be able to use it... --> was it returned 'cause of faulty dialer or radio... then resold to me... not nice if so...?
Tried to install dialer one app but it seems only to skin the original dialer...
It's a greate device and works great othervice but in the end it's still a phone... which should be able to make calls...
Help
Ive got an unlocked Atrix too and now in Germany, I have the same problem. Motorola should definitely look into this.
Here's a quick fix for it thou, (not permanent)....
1. type *#*#4636#*#* on the dialer
2. Chose Phone Information
3. Set preferred network to GSM only
Viola...its fixed
problem with this fix is that you wont be able to use your 3G network but the dialer should be working.
Thanks Nazrin (for both replies) !!
It sure did the trick, though no data access is not acceptable on a phone like this!!!
So this meens that all unlocked Atrix's in european GSM networks have the same problems? Haven't seen any others reporting this and there are quite a few in use I've noted in other forums.
Was thinking of trying to have mine replaced (which probably won't be easy and take long time...) but that won't change anything then??
We have to wait for the european version of Atrix rom I suppose??
Any others with the same problem??
No problems buddy, glad it worked..and i have to agree with you..this bug is unacceptable...it seems the phone just ***** up everytime it calls on utms (3g)...im sure there is more people with this problem...
Sent from my Supercharged MOTO ATX
I have the same problem
Hi guys, I have the same exact issue (I'm also in Belgium, on Mobistar). I'm somewhat glad to hear this is a generic issue, and not an issue with my specific phone. At least I can be fairly certain replacing it won't solve this issue then.
I made another post here before I came across this one, has a bit more info: we are seeing modem panics when using 3G + outbound call. I've also contacted Motorola support to no avail:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1028771
You can also read there that I tried another operator, and it did not crash with that one (although 3G did disconnect).
Hopefully Motorola/Qualcomm will start to notice the bug when they release the phone globally, and release a fix.
Either that, or we all have phones from the same bad batch
This bug is really bad for users in europe....cant call on utms...
I really hope motorola takes this seriously cos if there's no fix via software updates then its moto gone for me
Guys, you are all on unlocked att atrix right? I do believe it is a simmiliar software glitch/bug/lock that you have porblems using it on non att networks as the problem with the wifi that it stops working for some of us (check the thread about it for more info). As all suggests there it is a config file problem, unfortunately i or anyone else doesnt know yet which one....
Yeah maybe..but funny thing is wifi is working without a glitch...will have to read that forum later...
Workaround options
So, since it seems we're not gonna get this fixed until there is a new radio/modem firmware available for flashing (and even then..), I've been looking for a workaround.
Found two potential applications that could do what we need: disable data completely when making an outgoing call, or switch to 2G:
- Sanity
- Superpower
I've tested the first (Sanity), and it does not work (fully). It does seem to disable data, but the bands aren't switched so our problem remains. I've contacted the developer here: http://tagliamonte.net/forum/thread-10.html. He seems to be very responsive, so given enough interest, I think he would add the functionality we require.
The second app I only came across today, and have not tried yet. It does not have a function to specifically switch bands when making an outgoing call, but it has a trigger for "Foreground application", so if we make that the dialer/contacts... Question remains if it will be able to do the switch.
Hopefully one of these will lead to a decent workaround for all of us!
Well done unknown...i will try these apps... but the real fix should be from moto...im always reading the net for anything that can solve this issue
reboots on incoming and outgoing calls
Same in Russia on Megafon network, I had to enter 4636 menu and use it as "GSM only". Even this does not fully solve problems, e.g. call forwarding does not show the new destination number while it does actually make the phone divert calls correctly.
My hope is that UK release will trigger new software version which will address this issue. ANYONE has news on this?
FIXED!
YAY! I just fixed this issue
What you need to do: flash the radio from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1052914
You have to use RSD-lite, since sbf_flash will not work. Flash the 1.87 baseband and enjoy working HSPA (including unlocked upload speeds ^^)
Now I can finally appreciate this phone fully
Enjoy guys!

Worked for me as well..brilliant!!!! its working here in germany.....but I wonder the telstra radio will work in my home country with frequencies of 900/2100
Motorola Atrix restart when placing a call
I just got the same exact Dialer problem now, but the flash radio file is gone* in the pointed post, and I don't know exactly how to flash the radio.
Someone can help me? I need the radio file and step by step instruction to how to flash it.
BTW my Atrix 4G works perfect for a year till this Dialer problem started past week.
I also use my phone as a full Linux computer when docked, and it works very fine.
Thanks
* The file was on megaupload, that was closed
No answer
Why I never got an answer of any post I did?
There is something wrong?

[Sorry for problem in speaking]
i had that problem too , im using CM13 with Marshmallow Version of android
So . the easy way is :
***** search "Default" in settings. then choose " System dialer" as Default ! just it ****
but if there is no search bar in your setting . try this patch:
Android 6 : Setting/Apps then click the setting icon on top(may be diffrent in your case) , then Click on "default ...." then choose " System dialer" as Default! :fingers-crossed:
but in some cases that it didnt work . they have to reinstall gapps .
Or in official Roms , reset will be usefull
any quastions?
Hello guys
My Sony Xperia Sola was perfect until i updated to ICS. ICS is very fast,smooth and beautiful software but since then i am experiencing a wifi problem. My wifi get frozen and stuck to connected. I can't disconnect it. The only way to disconnect it is to switch of the phone. I foundnd a "solution" to this problem. Problem seems to disappear if you make a factory reset of the phone. But after a week it comes again. It's so annoying. My "solution" is to make back up-and restore once a week to avoid the problem. If i didn't do the factory reset problem comes again. Is there any solution to this issue? I heard a lot who have this problem after updated to ICS(problems appears and to xperia u)
Thank you
Patrokloscy
Please post Q&A in the appropriate section next time

Any solution guys??
Change the wireless interface on your router to be 802.11 b/g only - not b/g/n
that helped me!!
sola wifi prob
i have the same problem, i restart, format, anything, but the wifi still doesn't turns on.
even at the first startup screen, i clicked connect only using wifi, than i select network, after that it just stuck there and the wifi will not turn on forever...
i had formatted my phone at least 3times today...
can any1 tell me y???
and how to fix it???

flash ur device using flash tool, it can be found in the forum too, and it shall be fine after that, just dont know that how long it can last...
same issue
I completely understand the original post.
I don't want to bother with any routers, 'cause it had been working fine before. It mustn't be a question of router settings.
Some software upgrade of the phone might have caused this problem and I'm still waiting for any reply from Sony on this. If they don't do anything in a month I'm gonna push this **** device to a repair station, though I don't feel much desire for the mess that comes with this procedure.
Generally the phone is very slow (and sometimes it opens the phonebook instead of call list, sometimes it take 10 secs, etc.), I wanna get rid of it but I have to wait till the end of my telephony contract's period.
I'm having some serious issues trying to fix my girlfriends tablet. It's a Motorola Xoom running Android 4.1.2. The issue it's having is that even though the tablet is connected to the internet none of the apps (play store, YouTube, etc) will connect. They all say 'no internet connection'. The only way I know the tablet is actually connected to Wi-Fi is that the internet browser still works. This might be unrelated to the issue but every single website I go to it gives me the warning 'Security warning: There are problems with the security certificate for this site'. It's very annoying. Sometimes I will have to hit cancel 10 times before the warning goes away.
I'm hoping that this is something I can fix without doing a complete reset because there are pictures and stuff I don't want to lose. Since I can't connect to google play I can't back them up to am app like dropbox either.
I hope someone here can help me fix this, thanks in advance.
Okay well if anyone is wondering I found a fix for this. Somehow the date reverted back to 01/02/1999 and I had to go to the date and time settings and sync it with the network. Hopefully this will help solve someones future frustration since I couldn't find a single thing about this after hours of searching for a solution.
Maybe someone else had this problem before, I didn't found a comment about it.
My phone can't see any WIFI's, it seem as is it turned off.
If I turn on the wifi after by hand about 10 second the green light goes out again
and also during this time no wifi can be found. There are no wifi's at the list.
I have used the app Pry-Fi 1.21B and during first time using the application hungs.
After a reboot of my phone it was not able anymore to contact the lan or the WIFI.
I have found out the into hosts file ( /system/etc/hosts ) was a wrong entry,
after removing that the network itself works againt but no more WIFI can be found.
older versions) it comes always the message "creating backup".
I've made a reset to the basic setting and as next a Factory Settings reset, nothing will help.
I'm using G900FXXU1POJ1_G900FVIA1POI1_G900FXXU1BOJ1_HOME.tar.md5,
the official Swiss Swisscom 5.0 Version, Samsung Galaxy S5, SM-G900F.
I'm nearly sure it has nothing to do with the used software version.
Do you have a idea how can I solve my problem?
On request I can send you all the hard & sorware details of my Samsung Galaxy S5.
Thank you in advance.

Try searching this in S5

Hi everyone.
My phone (E2303) is running the Rom Pexorom at its version V.2.1.
I´ve realised that I cannot make or receive any calls. Even though I have coverage, when I start phoning someone the signal directly disappears and doesn´t allow me to phone. I cannot explain this behaviour as the rest of the time I can enjoy from my internet conection and so on. However, calls are impossible both to receive or phone.
Any solution to this strange problem? Do I have to start searching for a new smartphone??
PD: My charging port allows charging but computers don´t recognise my phone. I don´t think both issues are related, but I say this just for you to know that I haven´t been able to update the rom to the 3.0 version (even though I don´t think there resides the matter)
Thanks in advance to everyone!!
