[Q] Bluetooth problem after 2.3.6 upgrading - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have upgraded my atrix to 2.3.6 build 4.5.141 OTA and found that the app Bluetooth file transfer can not see files on other connected device, then I go to setting\wireless\bluetooth... and found that the discoverable check box can not be ticked! If bluetooth is on, the bluetooth adress is 00:11:22:33:44:55. Is that the problem related to this 4.5.141 build? Any help is appreciated
PS I've tried the PDS partition fix before upgrade but that time not solved my problem of top part touch screen unresponsive to touch.

Hello,
I'm from Brazil and my English is not so good, so if you do not understand something, please let me know.
First you need to root access, and install the SQLite editor.
Turn off the Bluetooth, then go to SQLite editor --> search for "com.motorola.android.providers.settings" --> settings.db --> settings
*Find the line: "bluethooth_discoverable_on", this is the line 135 here.
*Change the value to “1”.
*Reboot.
Now the most important part: go to Bluetooth settings, click to check discoverable, asap click in the box below, then set the time you want, but do not press the option "Never", this is the option that is causing the problem.
If you want, you can change the value back to “0”, however nothing changes here.

Am having the same problem
Hello Jmisturini. Thank you for the advice you gave. I have folliwed the steps, but the " com.motorola.android.providers.settings" --> settings.db --> settings" is missing in the list displayed by SQLite Editor. I have recently done an upgrade. I don't know if that's why mine is mot visible. Pls advice what next I should do. Thanks.

Today screen modifications in ROM?

Hello.
My XDA Today screen displays 4 lines, they are:
- Tap here to set owner...
- No upcoming appointments
- No unread messages
- No tasks
I want to make a ROM without the first line and I want to add one line more for the number of files in \ProgrammFiles\Connections or which says 'no files' if there are not files in that folder
Can someone give me any clue?
Thanks in advance.
Hi ...
All of these are Today plug-ins ... and you can display/hide any of them.
Start -> Settings -> Today -> Items ... uncheck "Owner Info"
any additional data to be displayed on Today must be through a new plug-in either ready-made or you can develop it yourself using WM2003 SDK 8)
Changing Today items in registry
Hello.
I finally found it.
First I deleted the item:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items\"Owner Info"]
in default.reg, so It won't display anymore "Tap here to set owner information"
I didn`t add a new item but I think It is like adding a new line in registry, somewat like:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items\MyApp
"..."="\\Windows\\MyApp.exe"
Of course, after this modification I ran mkrom and made a new rom.
Tanks for your patient.

[MOD] Pantech Burst - Native Hotspot/Tethering Enabled (Root)

I am able to get the native hotspot working on rooted JUUS06252012 and bypass the "dial 611" message. I'm posting this right now via wifi tethering, on a prepaid plan with a data package.
Before trying to get the native hotspot to work, I did try a few apps first. WiFi Tether for Root works in WPA mode (configured as Epic 4G Touch), but it broke wifi completely after tethering and wifi stayed broken even after a hard reboot. Logcat said a wifi driver file was locked and could not be loaded. I had to factory reset to get wifi working again. FoxFi seemed to work at first, but force closed whenever a client connected.
The mod: I found two values in settings.db to be modified. As we all know, there are many ways to update a sqlite database, but here is one easy way, keeping in mind that the Pantech Burst factory rom lacks many things like BusyBox or the commandline sqlite3. Yes, you need to be rooted:
1. Install Andsen's aShell and aSQLiteManager (not SQLiteManager).
2. Run aShell, check root, tap File Explorer, go to /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases, open settings.db, when prompted to open a copy, say yes and open with aSQLiteManager, tap table secure, tap data and tap "edit" for each of the below
softap_free_supported=1 (old value 0)
softap_entitlement_interval=0 (old value1440)
Then tap back twice. When prompted to commit changes, say yes and exit aShell.
3. Reboot and you can now use the native hotspot. Install a toggle widget for convenience.
*EDIT: with this mod, turning on hotspot from the 2nd level "Portable Wi-Fi hotspot settings" page works reliably, whereas turning it on from the 1st level "Tethering & portable hotspot" page would show the "dial 611" message. Many hotspot widgets work reliably as well, such as HotSpot Toggle, Hotspot Widget or many others.
EDIT Read through the thread for ICS

Did that and my phone is now stuck on boot screen. Removing battery didn't help either
_lost can you check to see if your guide can be updated for the new ICS release? or atleast put a warning up to let people know not to try if they are running ICS on their Pantech Burst?
After a lot of trial and error I have this working on ICS. I tried the free apps first and at first I couldnt even get the change to take. When I did by copying the file editing it then replaceing it the system would just hang on boot. I did get it to work though after having to wipe my device a few times. Now this may still work with the free programs im not realy sure as I figured id give the paid ones a try and got it working. I used the program root explorer. I copied the settings.db and pasted the copy in the same folder. Then I edited the copy in SQLite editor although it still couldnt edit the original.. Then in root explorer I renamed the old file by adding an extension to the end and renamed the new file to replace the old one. Then in root explorer i double checked that the permissions were the same as the old file and also..... (I THINK THIS WAS THE IMPORTANT THING BY THE WAY) I checked the ownership settings in root explorer it was already set to "system" just like the old file. I think the other programs may have been changing the owner of the new file causing issues. Anyway after rebooting it started right up and I can turn on wifi hotspot from either menu. On gingerbread it only worked from the one menu. I hope this works for you guys!!!!!!
by the way i used the original two edits from the first post

Hey thanks! This was the setting that did the trick for me on my Pantech Crossover (P8000). I had recently done the vendor upgrade to Gingerbread and lost root, but more importantly, SVTP's Wifi Hotspot & USB Tether Pro stopped working for me.
I rooted using pawaa's excellent guide and thought that would do the trip, but no such luck. Found this thread, bought SQLite Editor and made the aforementioned changes and all was well.
Guess I don't need SVTP anymore, but the widget works well, and I don't mind having paid for it for the month or so that it worked under Froyo. (Also, it was paid for out of my Nexus 7 $25 credit.) Anyways, just wanted to mention this in case anybody else was trying to get tethering working again on the Crossover after upgrading to 2.3.6.
I am having rooted JUUS03122012.
My Root/data folder is empty

For Android 2.3.
A simple method for switching on Tethering:

2. Search Codes
3. List Codes
4. Tap on "softapactivation"
5. Launch code
6. Now we on SoftapHiddenMenu
7. Check on all checkboxes
8. Save
9. Reboot
10. Enjoy full tethering

I tried all of the methods above in ICS and none of them work. Not only do they not work, but if you try to edit the com.android.provider.settings AT&T will block your incoming calls, disable all notifications for messages, and break the home button. I was not able to find away to fix this without reflashing the ROM. I tried repairing the permissions but it did not help. I could not simply change the settings back since it seems AT&T's program did that for me and nonetheless deactivated me.
I can't get this to work either. My phone was purchased as an unlocked device, I didn't realize some things are still locked. :'(
I tried multiple times. I am running the stock (rooted) Android version 4.04 Baseband version JUUS09032012. Everything was setup fresh, all I did was root the device, get my Google account logged in and install the Superuser app, aShell and aSQLiteManager. I didn't stop, disable or uninstall any apps. Then followed the instructions here carefully.
I also tried the "Secret Codes Revealer" method with no luck. But I did not get any popups requesting root access when trying that method, so I can't imagine it doing anything.
I really love the phone - it is everything I want other than the tethering restriction. Hopefully this will be figured out before I am tempted by the new Nexus phone to be announced soon.
I used root browser to make a copy of the database file, edited it with asqlite, then went back to root browser and renamed the copy to the actual database. Then I booted into cwm and selected fix permissions and it works fine. That was the only way I could get it to work.

i face the same problem but i decided to try it one more time
here is what I done
i use a sqllite editor premium
do a backup of the files
i use the root explorer and copy the settings.db and paste in the same folder
after that i used sqlite editor and then settings.storage
after that i change the following values
softap_free_supported=1 (old value 0)
softap_entitlement_interval=0 (old value1440)
entitlement_pdp _checked changed from 0 to 1
than sve it and replace the settings.db by deliting or renaming the original one
than change the settings -copy.db to the settings.db
and delete all the other files that exist in that folder except settings.db (delete .db-shm and .db-wal also)
or
replace all the files in the data/data/com.providers.settings/databases from the attachment
Just download the attachment from Post# 17 and use Root Explorer to overwrite/replace all the files in the data/data/com.providers.settings/databases from the attachment.
It works like Charm.
Thanks irbaaz
Hmm... I didn't touch "entitlement_pdp _checked" but it all seems to work anyway.

This works on rooted AND NON-ROOTED Pantech bursts.
This is so easy. I tested on 4 different bursts including mine. 2 rooted and 2 stock. , 3 on ics, 1 on gingerbread (just arrived) All unlocked. None using AT&T. 3 on Digicel Antigua 4GLte Network.
Thanks Almark for the lead. You're a life saver.

Colaboration needed, please

Hi everybody. I have a big problem with my cellphone, its touch screen is decalibrated, so I've read, I have an theoretical working option, and to try it, I need a person that want to help me and that has a working android phone with gt915 touch screen.
Your colaboration must not be harmful for your phone if everything is made right. What I need is the configuration file (.cfg) of a working, non decalibrated phone. If you already have it, ¡cool! we avoid the intermediate steps, only what you need is pass me a copy of that file.
But if you want to help me and don't have that file, that´s what you need:
-Gtp tool.apk
-Your cell phone
First install gtp tool on you cell phone and run it. When opened, select "config setting" option and into it, select "read" button. After that must appear many options where before was black. DON´T change any of these options, and just press "save" button, then select where to save the configuration (ideal /sdcard to you can remember where is it) and when you reach your save destination, press the chinese letters button.
At last, just confirm your save (is in english, don´t worry). A confirmation of the saved file appears. And we're ready, you just need to send me that config file.
Even, that config file you must keep it safe because it is a backup of your working configuration, so you don't need to be curious and experiment with your phone for decalibrate your touch, even a problematic update can do that; so is beneficial for you by doing this.

Help: rooted XT912 Hotspot problem..

hi,
I have the Droid Razr CDMA version XT912 , with stock 4.1.2 .. I recently rooted it. Then, I want to hack / use the hotspot feature. I followed the direction here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746873
"
_id 66 "entitlement check"
Once there, change "value" field from "1" to "0" (this is the only step different from the original process, where the _id was 150). "
It doesn't really work. I mean after I edited the setting.db and reboot. It does allow me to turn on the hotspot feature without problem. However, I get an error message like this " Unfortunately The process com.motorola.process.system has stopped. " This error message will always pop back out even 3 to 5 min. Although it doesn't seem affecting other features of the phone yet, I don't see anyone reporting this problem after the hack.
is there some other setting that I need to change ? Please kindly guide me to the right direction or answer
Thanks
