[Q] Best radio for AT&T Atrix on ICS? - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Running turl v8 build ICS on AT&T radio N_01.77.37P.
Got a couple of issues I can't seem to find others reporting, wondering whether its my radio (should I downgrade to 36P or other?).
- wireless hotspot will automatically turn itself off as soon as its turned on. So unusable.
- Sometimes when turning on navigation, I'll lose all mobile data (navigation of course then fails as it can't grab directions). Resolve by turning airport mode on and off again.
any others running Turl ICS build on my radio seeing same issues?
EDIT: Confirmed issue with that radio and turl v8, downgrade to N_01.77.36P fixed it. I didn't immediately realise it was the radio as I was already running 37P when I flashed turl.

best radio?
Are the radio specific to network or are they generic and one fits all model?

I upgraded to 37P soon as it was available and went back to 36P after a couple of days of data connectivity issues and funky website and app data problems. Been fine since I went back to 36P. Dunno what they changed. Wifi and data speed tests seemed the same, but connectivity was balked up. Been running 36P for a long time with all ROM's and no issues with it.

I have been on 37p for a few weeks. Without using edge or 3g my battery lasts 2 days and maybe 12 more hours if i dont use it too much.
But im on nottachtrix, while i was on cm9 it did a day or so just like any other regular android.

ppl using the new radio and lucky enuff to not have random reboot what is your setup?

i was hoping to get some ideas on ways to set up my phone to minimize random reboots on the new radio, I tried changing kernels but had no luck. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Rom/kernel version and if you are OC and if yes up to what? 4g/3g? And if on cdma or something else Thank you

I read that it isn't so much the phone, but rather the cell towers that were causing the random reboots (this was over in the TB General Forum)

I have found most reboots occur when over clocking past 1.3ghz due to voltage spikes or inadequate overvolting at 1.45 and up.
On cm7 and bamf I never had a reboot with either radio using imo kernels keeping oc under 1.42 and using smartass governor
Hope this helps
Usual location: West Los Angeles area
I have tried all combinations of radios and several roms available on XDA. I've never experienced a random reboot.
Baseband verison: 1.16.00.0402w_1
Kernel: bamf_4.4.7
build: Das Bamf 1.6.2 Remix
Software Number: 1.13.605.7
PRI Version: 1.41_002, 1.64_002 <- dunno if this matters for anything.
No overclock.
Can't think of anything else. I think I've been lucky.
Bone Stock and has never rebooted on me as of yet. I live in the outskirts of a 4G tower and it flips in and out. I do have a slightly better battery life compared to before the update.
I've also tried a bunch of combos with no reboots, but I mostly run leankernel "normal" and das bamf remix. Never a reboot.
I've never had a reboot using the latest radio (both the LTE and CDMA ones). Im just using BAMF Stripped and adrynalyne's 4.4.7 kernel without voice recording. No overclocking and ondemand governor. I think most of the reboots are probably just caused by overclocking/overheating.
i am running the BAMF roms. I upgraded my radio when it came out. I didnt have reboots for a week or so then i had random reboots and even had my phone just shut off a couple of times. I only have 3G and have the phone set to CDMA auto.
I changed the radio to the .7CDMA and .6LTE and havent had a reboot since?
In that time i also changed kernels and roms also, but did have a couple of days with the same rom/kernel after changing the radio to the .7/.6 combo.
I also did notice that my phone was on 3g revA even though it was set to use eHPRD. Verizon was messing with things and maybe that caused the reboots. Now that they turned eHPRD back on and pushed the update maybe they were the cause of the reboots and maybe it is fixed now?
I'm running the latest stock everything.. no random reboots in over 3 days.
I'm running the new firmware and radio, rooted and crapware removed, but otherwise stock. No reboots in my local area.
Having said that, running the same stuff, I was getting reboots last week when I was in the Indy area. Based on that, and the timeline of events, I think this is what's happening (I posted basically this yesterday? in another thread):
VZW started rolling out the update, and recognized an issue. That issue was caused by an incompatibility between the software on some cell sites (VZW uses at least Nortel, Motorola and Lucent 3G BSSs, Ericsson and Lucent for LTE, maybe others) and the new TB radio firmware. They believed the root cause to be with the eHRPD software on some cell sites.
So, they stopped the update rollout. They turned off eHRPD. They upgraded the software on the problematic cell sites. They turned eHRPD back on. They restarted the update rollout. That all fits with what we've seen.
I wasn't getting reboots before at home, and I'm not getting them now. I think I'm on a Nortel BSS. When I was getting the reboots in Indy, they stopped when I reverted to the older radio firmware. From that, I assume that VZW uses a different BSS vendor to cover the area of Indy I was in, and the problem was with interoperability of the new TB radio with that vendor's BSS.
People are apparently still getting reboots. It may be Verizon didn't really fix what they needed. It may be that they only fixed one type of BSS, and need to address the issue on another type. They may have only fixed one of multiple issues. It may actually be an issue with the phone's firmware. eHRPD/LTE are new, and this is just some pain they're going through. You find problems when you have 100,000 users that you don't when you have a few hundred.
I don't know whether I'd get reboots today if I went back to Indy and tried again with the new radio firmware. I didn't have any problems switching between old and new radio f/w running my mostly stock image - YMMV if you're running someone's "ROM."
You can get just the radio firmware in this thread.
Finally, I suspect the reboot is caused by something like: phone tries to switch modes or negotiate something with the BSS (we know they're trying to make transitions work better, and that was the claimed reason for the radio upgrade). BSS doesn't respond as the phone expects. Phone retries unsuccessfully X times, then finally gives up and reboots.
The reboots would not have been to bad because it was occasional but the battery drain that happens is what I didn't like. Thank you everyone for their feedback.

Heh, I just switched from BAMF 1.6.2 to CM7 alpha. Using latest radio leak and leanKernel extreme and I have had absolutely no reboots since switching ROMs.
(In no way should one infer from the previous statement that BAMF and/or Adrynalyne's kernels in any way definitively contributed to reboots. - I changed ROMs a day or so after the new firmware was pushed to unrooted phones.)
Literally, everything stock. I flashed the PB file flashboot, that's it. No reboots, and killer battery life. Half a battery got me through the day.
This is a replacement Thunderbolt...
I had two reboots and both happend when my phone was running hot I live in AZ

Leankernel 2.4, bamf 1.6.3 remix with leaked OTA, live in LTE area but go into 3G frequently. No reboots ever. Not sure if this matters but I exchanged my phone a week ago due to the wireless radio getting stuck off. New one is working great so far.
I have been overclocked dice day one on this thunderbolt and started noticing random reboots and I'm not on the newest radio. The weird thigh is I got a random reboot each time I go to my parents place where the signal isn't great by at the same time the other day I returned to stock clock speeds and haven't had a random reboot yet. So its kinda hard to narrow it down. But I'm going with lack of voltage during overlcocming to be the cause. Besides I can't tell a real world difference in performabce when overclocked anyways. Btw I'm using 4.4.5 kernel by adrynalyn.
No root. Before the update I had to do a factory reset because I had to data making my phone basically be a paper weight.

So I flashed the leaked radio the other night after 2 early reboots everything settled down and was going good. I was using PS1.4 rom and ziggys 5/3 kernel and its default max1036/122 min and no OC app. Changed the setting to cdma(prl) cuz I dont live in a 4g area and shortly after I started getting reboots again. Then I changed it back to evdo/cdma auto then no reboots. But the searching for 4g was affecting battery life and I didn't see much of a difference between stock and leaked radio except the battery drain. Gps and everything seemed to be the same so I decided to flash back to the stock radio which has been more stable for me and I could keep it at the cdma(prl) setting which is better battery life for me...so ill probably stick to the stock radio until we get 4g. And that is my experience

Gingerbread WIFI!!!???

FIXED: check out post #17
I didn't think posting this in each GB Rom thread and kernel thread would be appropriate so I'm starting here. Thanks in advance for any feedback!
Okay......After doing countless and wasted hours of searching and coming up empty handed, why is it that only a few of us are having the WIFI issue on the Gingerbread ROMs? It doesn't matter which ROM I use as soon as the screen cuts off, BAM, no WIFI or 3G data. And yes WIFI sleep policy is set to never and I've tried turning on Better WIFI performance and I've even tried every kernal out there, nothing works. FROYO ROMs are working fine so it's got to be either the Gingerbread ROMs or the Kernels.
Either way I'm okay with the issue not working (yet) and I understand that HTC hasn't released the source for the GB Kernel yet. All I would like is some clarification from the people that build these ROMs and Kernels that the WIFI is not working yet. I understand if you're in a 4G area, after all 4G is much faster than the WIFI anyway but for those of us not in a 4G area yet WIFI is king when at home or at work. So if the developers are using 4G constantly I understand the WIFI neglect, but I really don't think it's the developers. These guys are too smart to let something like that slide by! Can someone shed some light on the issue? Thanks again in advance!
This is not an issue with the leaked GB roms themselves or the latest kernels, because the wifi is working great for most people.
It is going to be helpful if you list which rom, kernel, and radio you are using. I did have a similar problem one time, my wifi was going to sleep when the screen turned off and went idle.
It had been working fine but I tried to take a shortcut and reflash the rom without wiping data because it was the same rom. After attempting that which was a bad idea but more of an experiment/learning session for me, I had exactly the problem that you stated.
After wiping my phone properly and flashing the rom, the problem was gone.
I have been running BAMF sence 3.0 with the MR2 radio. I tried MR2.5 and had some different small issues, MR2 has been working Great. Currently with BAMF 3.0 RC 3, the MR2 rom and the latest dreamKernel, everything is running perfectly, at least everything I use or thought of using.
The background data is extremely important for me because I communicate exclusively with my girlfriends using IM services such as gtalk with Trillian. So I wouldn't be able to run gingerbread if it wasn't working REALLY good.
Here's the thread that I use often as a resource. It discusses some issues similar to what you are dealing with, and is update very regularly
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1086518
I'm having an identical issue to the OP. Running BAMF GingerREMIX 2.1, Imoseyon's 3.3.8GBTest+ , MR2 radio.
Wifi just disconnects when screen is off. When I turn the screen on, i can see the wifi indicator is all black (similar to no bars). Once it's on for a second or two, it lights up again, and I get whatever notifications I missed due to no data(email, etc).
Ive done the 3x data, cache, and dalvik wipe before flashing the ROM and before flashing the Kernel. It's absolutely DESTROYING my battery life. Since noticing the problem, i've re-wiped and re-flashed everything, didn't help.
Thanks for the response...I'm stumped then because I have tried every combination of kernal/ROM that is available out of the Gingerbread leaks. I recently last night tried BAMF Sense 3.0 RC3 and GINGERTH3ORY V4.5.1 and BAMF 2.1 Remix again along with both MR2 and MR2.5 radios. Nothing worked so I went back to the reliable Perfect Storm 1.5 ROM and left my radio at MR2.5
Any suggestions? Thanks for the help!

I did try the gingeritis 1.0 3D with dreamkernel but not lean. Maybe I'll give that a shot this evening but I'm not holding my breath...lol I've tried almost everything and known combinations that are working for others and all the wipes I can muster, nothing is working.
Okay I've been trying Gingeritis 1.0 3d with the lean kernel for a few hours hours now. When my screen turns off I will receive emails for a few minutes but then I stop receiving them until I wake the the phone up. Once i wake the phone up i start receiving messages likevi just turned it on from a good nights sleep. Does anyone know what's going on?

I've actually had this problem also ever since i moved to the Gingerbread. When the screen turns off and i turn it back off after awhile, the WiFi seems like it was sleeping the entire time. I get all my notifications when i turn the screen back on. And i do believe this has been killing my battery life a bit. I have wiped before i flashed. I tried it with the original GB radio/MR2/MR2.5. I've flash different kernels. Wifi sleep is set to never.
Note: I tried running an app such as Pandora on while the screen was off and only in situations like this the WiFi doesn't have the problem.
tethering is ****ed up as well in gb, screen off, no tether, screen on and everything is okay. personally i think that something is ****ed up at the kernel, i switched back to froyo and problems went away.
For the record.....if I set wifi sleep policy to never when plugged in I still receive notifications instantly but it's through 3G because when I wake the phone 3g is active instead of wifi.

This is something I've brought up before too, but nobody addresses it because there probably isn't an answer about a whether it's the kernel or rom. I've just come to terms that I can't use wifi. For those who are suggesting we didn't clear data appropriately, that's not the issue. Most of us who have this wifi problem have been determined enough to try multiple clean installs to get to the bottom of this issue.

Shall I throw another quirk into our problem?............... I flashed CM7.1 RC1 early this morning. This is the best ROM I've put on my TBolt yet. WIFI seems to be working flawlessly except for right after the initial install it wouldn't download anything, through browser or even open the market. After a reboot, I'm going strong. I am receiving messages and data when phone's screen is off. I'm beginning to think that it might be a Sense 3.0 problem....any thoughts from the peanut gallery?
The problem with GB is that it is not official. The ROM is not final (or has been ported from a different phone), kernel is not final, and neither is the radio. We shouldn't be surprised that a lot of features don't work properly. Now cyanogen do their own Roms and kernels basically from scratch, and maybe that is why it's working. GB was fun to have, but i just switched to Froyo for faster 4g speeds, ability to tether properly and better battery life. I'll wait for the proper GB before switching again.
Yeah not Gingeritis 3d but the normal version.... I've noticed also that it seems settings don't change, Like I have turned off Haptic feedback yet still get it when i type on the keyboard, and still get weather sounds with the sounds turned off. This is every time I flash even with 5 wipes. Settings don't seem to stick.

For the keyboard not turning off haptic feedback, you have to go to the settings in the keyboard to disable it. Settings->Language and Keyboard->Touch Input->Text Input->Uncheck Vibrate While Typing.
WI FI Alternative
And I thought I was the only one having problems with wifi tether on gingeritis 3D. I posted a question in a different forum but no one answered me. So after trying different versions of wireless tether I found one that is working perfectly for me. It is wireless tether v2.0.5. I've been using it for 2 days with no issues and phone screen doesn't have to be on. Now, this may not work for everybody, like I said I tried different versions until I found the right one.
Here is the link: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list
I hope this helps some of you.
Okay.......!!!!!!!! Thanks to the folks over at theMikMik.com (akaGingeritis ROMs) forums I now have working WiFi with the Gingeritis ROMs. Just download Advanced WiFi Lock from the Marketplace and set it up and you're good to go! Now that wasn't hard was it guys/gals? I've been looking for an answer for so long I can't even remember when I started....oh wait it was the first day that Gingerbread were available by these great developers!!!! Sorry, I didn't mean to vent, I'm not mad just very excited that now I can enjoy these Gingerbread ROMs. So everyone else that's having problems with the WiFi staying connected, download Advanced WiFi Lock from the Marketplace and get your Ginger on!
So is that the free version, or the paid version? You're finding that your WiFi now says connected even if the phone is sleeping? To do some more testing, I fully charged my phone, turned on my WiFi, and connected to my home wireless for 5 hours, just let the phone sit. Used 50% of my battery. Next day, same thing, but had WiFi off, 4g on. 5 hours later, used 15% of battery. Pretty sucky that I can't use my TB on my own home network.

I'm using the free version as the paid doesn't offer any extra features I needed. I left my phone connected to WiFi all night idle, about 7.5 hours, and only used 13% of battery and received all messages. I can't test on 4G so please provide feedback for others.

Not so lucky. Downloaded and installed advanced WiFi lock. Connected to my home wireless and see the same exact results. WiFi just sucking battery. Still draining at about 10% an hour on WiFi and about 3% an hour on 4g. I'm so confused over this, how is WiFi draining battery more than 4g? Phone isn't even usable on WiFi. Checking battery usage stats as noticed that the phone is constantly awake when WiFi is on.

signal/data issues...

Hi there
long time reader first time poster here...
searched and found nothing...
running the latest gingerbread AT&T official on a AT&T atrix (currently unlocked and running on the Rogers network in canada)
i seem to be having an issue with my Atrix lately(or at least been noticing).... normally when i am connected to the data networks fine, my signal meter and H+ are is blue...
what has been happening is if i leave the phone alone for some time (usually 20+), it just disconnects from the data services... all my signal meter and H+ meter turns grey... when i "wake" the device it takes a couple seconds to kick back to blue... when this is going on i go into my gtalk and i see it had signed me out and that its trying to sign me back in.... same thing with alot of other apps, like my issimo app, its been sign out, or hasnt received any new updates since it turned "grey".
how do i stop this? is this a bug? something wrong with the OS? will i have to reflash?
any thoughts on this would be appreciated!
thanks!
UPDATE:
had battery save mode on nighttime, so i thought that was the issue... so i changed it to performance and doing that had no effect at all... still losing data after a while of it being locked...
any ideas? could this maybe be some residual affects from a battery saver app i add?
i really would not like to reload the OS...
anyone got any ideas?
i'm finding any solution for the same problem, some atrix lose data signal, motorola says that is a software problem but i dont find a fix for that yet, any idea?
It's a software issue on Motorola's end. I'm having the same problem. I haven't flashed a custom ROM yet, but my friend had the same problem and he said when he flashed Gingerblur it was fixed.
when i seemed to notice it was when i had upgraded to gingerbread... so what i simply did was deleted my APN, rebooted and entered in the APN again, and that seemed to have solved it
@OP I don't use GTalk so I can't comment on that, but the signal than that you described is EXACTLY what my SGS does running on stock Froyo rooted.
I don't know if its more battery saving or what, but I tend to miss more calls in weaker signal areas when my phone has been on idle for a while.
I too am looking for a fix because of that. Also my Atrix sometimes acts the same way on Froyo, but I haven't used my Atrix in a while...

Yes I found this to be true as well. The new radio (1.77.36) dropped signal for me often and the speeds were lower than with 1.77.30

why not upgrade your radios to the latest AT&T has to offer? 1.97.00 see if that helps?
im having the same issue
anyone knows why this is happening? i have cyanogemod 7, i reflashed the phone, and when it started i restored but the problem just keep going
I have a very similar problem. When the H+ is lit up blue I have a network connection. But it will switch to grey then internet ect stops working ..still have signal (4 bars) any ideas why it keeps switching?
I've had the same issue ever since I first got my atrix. I've tried many different roms and it does it with every one. Ill have great signal n my browser will direct my to a no data connection page. I have to reboot or turn airplane mode off n on to get it going again. I have like a month left on my warranty gonna try n swap it out n see if a different one will fix the problem

Data and Wifi Troubles?

This is real weird. As of last week sometime, my phone will stop all data connections or wifi connections after about 6 hours post reboot. The only way for it to work again is to reboot. I'm assuming it's an app of some sort causing this because I did a fresh install and the problem is persisting. I have uninstalled all new apps I've installed over the past week as well. Anyone have anything similar or possible solutions? Running CM7 N214 & DCs 8.9.1.

I was actually seeing this as well, but not consistently enough to report it. Was happening on all the nightlies I'd been on after n13x (which was one in the 15x range, and a couple 20x ones). When it did happen for me, it was usually about the same time of day, so I think it might have been on a 24 hour cycle (I don't normally power my device off, so it was probably hitting at 24 hours after the reboot to fix the last one). The strangest part was that the connection icon color would continue to show a google connection, and if I was on 3g the up/download arrows would light as I would expect. Just no data traffic. Was running DC8.9.1 on all of the above nightlies.
this is not so much of a wifi issue but i did loose my data connection twice in the past month. the first time i was outside and i wanted to check my email but i couldn't. i was abel to send and receive texts messages and was abel to make and receive phone calls but no data was available and no internet. i try re booting the phone but still no data. about two hours later i check to see if i have internet, and it was working all by it self. not sure if this was my phone or a AT$T network thing. the second time i was leaving from my home wifi to my AT$T 3g network but the data connection was unavailable, no internet. but this time a reboot fixed it. i have had my aria for about a year now and this has never happen before. this may vary easily be a network, cell tower thing and nothing is wrong with my phone.

That definitely sounds like a network issue because it's not repetitive or consistent.

Hi,
I've been having the wifi/data drop issue since 2.3.7. I was hoping nightly 242 would solve it. No mas. Lost data connection after ten hours. Flash 208 and all data/wifi issues disappear.
Stock kernel. DC's kernel doesn't seem to affect the issue for better or worse.
Will keep lurking over at the developers forum...

I use the stock kernel and I think this problem is affecting my Aria too. Wifi usually doesn't die until about 2 or 3 days.
Flashed 243 and DC's 8.9.2a kernel yesterday. No data loss all day and was still connected this morning when I woke the phone up. Just flashed 244 and 8.9.2a. We'll see how long connection lasts.

I had to reboot my phone running stock 242 today. Wifi showed connected but the Market took almost 60 secs to open. Opening "my apps" didn't work. Reboot cured all.
The problem has been narrowed down to drowningchild's kernel. If you are using this kernel, just reflash your nightly to revert back to the stock kernel and all will be fixed. To follow this problem since it is not fixed yet, refer to this kernel's thread in the development section.

For me, the problem started with 2.3.7 and continued whether I ran DC's kernels or not. Flashing nightly 208 eliminated the problem, but of course, who wants to go backwards?

Did you do a full wipe when going Fromm 2.3.5 to 2.3.7? I haven't heard of anyone with stock kernel issues.

I've been having this problem for a few weeks now. I thought it was just me. I was driving using google maps and had to pull over and reboot since my data decided to crap out at the worst possible time.

I'm pretty sure some over in the "Nightly builds starting!" thread mentioned drops with the stock kernel.
No, I didn't do a full wipe. So far, I haven't noticed any drops since 244 with DC's 8.9.2a kernel. Fingers crossed.

Oh, ok. I just didn't recall any, but I could be wrong. I think for best results, you need to full wipe when going from 2.3.5 to 2.3.7. Also, I have heard that 8.9.2a is still dropping for some with the recent nightlies. I have had no problem with the stock kernel, as I did a wipe when going to 2.3.7.
I was the one having probs with the stock kernel, but a format and flash of 242 fixed it. Been running fairly good since then.
I did a full wipe and flash of N245 + DC 8.9.2a tonight. We'll see how it goes tomorrow. So far, GPS locks in less than 5 seconds.
FWIW, I also did not flash the very latest gapps, the 08282011 version. Does that matter?
John
OK, the big drop came about fifteen hours after wipe/flash w/8.92a. Airplane mode toggle did not bring connection back. Flashed N245 again. This time I'll try the stock kernel and see how it goes.

The gapps version won't matter with regards to a data drop. I am running the 6/13 gapps.

you have to try, I'm VIVO customer service provider, in Colatina-ES, and obtained better results than with the 77.07. Not always newer is better.
Im on 01.77.36p At&t. Claro ES. I cant get second call to work properly. Have you seen this? Apart from that the radio is great. 30+ hours of moderate use. Reception quite good and does not drain too much battery.

I'm using my Atrix with Vivo-SP, always in 3G...
Testing 1.31.00R, from Vivo, but I think AT&T 1.77.30 and 1.77.36 are better..
Just for the record, my Atrix is the AT&T version and I'm running CM7
I'm on unlocked cm7 weekly #4 at&t atrix, clemsyn no oc kernel in vivo RJ network.(full specs ;-) )
Recently I flashed .36P radio and here is my opinion about it:
- very very fast wi-fi connect
- bt ok (no changes)
- gps, in the first time it took about 3-5 minutes to lock the position - I was thinking about reflash .30P when it connect, but the next attempt was incredibly fast (i use it with endomondo for running and got no missing tracks)
- 3G, i'm in HSPA most of the time with nearly full or full signal
- and battery life... well, .30P gives me a during daytime of heavy use, and .36P didn't give me more than that; I think I shouldn't use my phone too much to have a good battery life :-\
I defenetly recommend .36P for vivo users. Look for it in samcripp thread.
Hope it helps.
