I got this phone almost a week ago and loving it so far. My only problem is the hotspot. I did the sqlite hack where you disable verizon from making you pay for it. When i enable hotspot (the default program or even foxfi) i can get a connection maybe for 10 minutes then the connection gets messed up. It's like limited access and then i have to restart the hotspot and hope it fixed the problem. Anyone else getting this problem or know how to fix it? Would really appreciate it.
Bump to the top
A Co-Worker has the Razr Maxx and has Hot Spot issues with Connections on the standard app in which VZW charges. My guess its a Moto thing.
I pay the $30 a month for hotspot. I also have unlimited data and use it as my sole source of internet. Mine is rock solid. I will have my PC, laptop, Xbox, and tablet all connected. I watch Netflix, download torrents, everything. I never have any issues. I had major issues with my old HTC Thunderbolt after about 6 months of using it that way but not with the RAZR MAXX.
One tip I can give you is the phone can get really hot; I have a desktop tower with a "blowhole" fan on top. I always put my phone right over that fan so it stays very cool. If you are going to crank data through the phone you really need to figure out some kind of cooling option. I think that might have been what happened to my Thunderbolt. It got so hot and repeatedly so that it damaged it a bit and then had problems after that.
This happens to me all the time, I have asked Verizon about it, and keep getting the run around. The hotspot keeps working, the data connection seems to drop.

I'm so jealous!!! I did the root and hacked the phone to get free thether. It works for others but not for me . I really do love the hotspot but it just gets on my nerves to have to dissconect/not-working after 5 min. I just wish the hotspot was free.... just verizon trying to milk money out of you.

FoxFi and Android tether both work great for me.
I have never had to pay anything extra.
I dont go crazy I just use it when I need it.
---------- Post added at 09:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:16 PM ----------
I used them both on my rooted charge.
And I used FoxFi on my wifes unrooted Samsung Fascinate.
My friend has been using FoxFi on his new unrooted Maxx XT912
and I just rooted my XT912, but I dont expect to have any problems.
I never have before.
Maybe its because I use more data on my phone than tethered like 10 to 1.

THANK YOU! now i can abuse my hotspot \
PPL heres what i did.
Just follow this video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tLyjsufOLs
your going to want to move the STOCK Mobile hotspot app that verizon gives you. Once you move it it shouldn't be under your apps anymore. After go here and download code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether
Now you should be able to hotspot no problems.
THANKS GUYS FOR THE HELP!!! REALLY DO APPRECIATE IT!
Offtopic post, but here is gos: I unpluged my razr at about 10:30, but did not use it intill 11:30 to make a call and they did not pick up so it did not last long. I then went to work and took a brake at 4:30 and the phone flashed the green light at me. I could not charge it with car charger, but could get the stock one at home to do it.(what does the green light meen any way.)
Do I have a bad phone? will it die? why did it only last less than 5H?
Thanks

im guessing the notification led??? So if you get an email or text it flashes green (what im thinking)
it flashed the green led every time I tryed to turn it on. I just have this fealing the phone will die, becuase a lot of tech thing's have "signs" of death. My laptop is starting now, becuase it's turning 4 years old and I have used it fair bit.( It's a gaming laptop or I should say thats the #1 use.)
i asked a verizon store rep and he had no idea.
Can Verizon track how much data you are using when using the android wifi tether app??

May just be me but I've noticed with the update to 4.5, when using navigation, it causes the entire phone to lock up. Have downgraded to the previous version, no issues. Any thoughts?

Everytime I've ever had issues I've used Rom Manager and the Fix Permissions option.
Of course you need to be rooted to perform.
thanks for the tip, I am rooted, will give it a shot.
I had lock ups every time I had gps enabled with 4.4, 4.0 and 4.5. I've downgraded and then gone back to the most recent, and they all mess their shorts more often than not. 4.5 even locks up sometime when GPS isn't on. I was on the phone with those geniuses at T-mo tech support a few hours ago because I'm tired of lock ups, and lagging so bad system wide that I'm missing calls. They had nothing for me except sending me my third phone in 6 weeks. I'm tired of this garbage; I purchased my phone with the even more plus plan, which is fine, as I've lived outside the country long enough and purchased enough phones at the real world non subsidized price that I'm totally cool with spending 5 bills on good tech. But I do have a problem with spending that much and having to carry my 2 year old Blackberry Bold so I can make a damn call or you know, get some directions without the phone puking. And I feel some kind of way about basically voiding my warranty to flash a rom on there to get the phone to work as it should from the bloody manufaturer (no irony there, yeah?)
I just hope that this GPS fix and froyo come down the pike soon, because I don't have much more before I pay this phone off, toss it and t-mo in the street, and then try not to vomit when I join my wife on ATT and get an iphone. Most of the time when we go someplace I'm having to use her phone because mine is busy either locking up or deciding whether I can make a call or not. I'm not a big apple fan, but at least you can make a phone call or use maps without any undue drama. I'm sorry for the rant, but this is ridiculous.

Hello all, I am not sure if any one has mantioned this or not. I looked thru the whole Atrix forum and could not find anything. I just got the Atrix about a week ago. I noticed that after using the data for couple of hours (Streaming music) it disconnects and I dont have access to data till I power off for a while and power on again. it is the same story every time I use data for 1 or 2 hours. replaced the phone once already including the SIM card and still the same thing. Any one having the same problem? Please reply. Thanks.
Am I in the right forum? If not, please forgive me, let me know and point me to the right direction? Thanks.
So you lose data completely? No h, e, 3g? Just bars? I had a similar issue on my captivate if I drove around listening to Pandora sometimes it would randomly stop playing till I went to the next song.

Well, I see the H+, but the little arrows (TX/RX) right underneath it disappear and I have no data connection and all this is happening while I'm in the same spot (In my room or at work at my desk). Also a window pops out saying Network Error. Also, I never see E or 3g. It is always H+ even when there is only 1 bar. Is that normal? Here is a picture of it. It just did it to me. Now i have no data connection unless I power down for a while. Here is another Pic. If you notice, there are no Arrows under H+.

It happens to me on data only without wifi on or off. I was just wondering if this was happening to anyone else. I guess no one used the data long enough to see this problem. It looks like this is a Motorola problem and I will have to return the device. Don't want to but don't want to keep a defective device.

Check your Battery Manager -> Battery mode setting. I think by default it's set to Nighttime sleep, which (in theory) shouldn't affect any music streaming or sync apps until night time, but it's possible that the profile is wonky. Try using the performance option or the custom (even though custom warns you of this very same issue).
This issue finally happened to me today.
I think it had to do with Extended Controls widget not correctly enabling/disabling the data apn.
In settings everything was right but I could not get the network even though it was showing the H+.

Hi. If you keep using the data nonstop, you will see that it will happen to you more often. I read some where in a forum that Motorola is having some kind of a power management problem on these devices (Atrix4G & Bionic) where it over heats and effects the RF radio and Motorola is denying it. I am not sure how much of it is true. I can not find that article.
Here. I fond it. Every one, read this.
http://androidcommunity.com/motorol...-suffering-unfixable-power-problems-20110126/
Hey all, Guess what I just found out. After talking to few AT&T tech support about the problem I am having with the device, they transferred me to Motorola tech support. Guess what they told me. The Motorola Atrix 4G is not a 3G device. It is only strictly 4G device. WOW. That sucks. I thought this was E, H & H+ device. That is not what I was told in the AT&T corp. store when I went to purchase it. I was told that it is a 3g/4G device and if there is no 4G network it will drop down to 3G. But I don't think that is the problem. The device is defective. Just now I power off and power back on and it is working fine so far and I don't think we have 4G network in my area.
Update: 03/11/2011 02:13PM PST PDT
Hello all. I am just doing an update. I went and replaced the device one more time (3rd device, 4th SIM card) and it is still the same. It keeps disconnecting from Data every 1 hour or so. I finally called Motorola tech support. The first level tech support could not help me, so he transferred me to second level tech support. The second level tech support told me that they are going to try it on their own devices that they have and call me back the next day. So they did. She called me back the next day and told me that they could not duplicate the problem (of course). So she said she is not going to let it go, she is going to sent it to the engineers to see if they can find out what the problem is and she is going to call me back on Monday 03/14/2011. If they still have no solution for this, I’m going to return the device and reverse my upgrade. It is just a shame that Motorola (being the first in communications) has to get beaten by other Competitors.
any update on the issue? im starting to have the same problem with my atrix.
Unfortunately, this seems to be happening to quite a few people. There's a longer thread on it here:

Nope. Even Motorola Level 2 & 3 Tech support could not resolve the problem. They wanted me to sent the device to them for more trouble shooting. I finally returned the device and reverse my upgrade. I suggest you do the same if haven't past the 30 days.

Im trying to connect my XOOM to my x2 via wireless tether and I'm having no luck. I've tried almost every version of wireless tether and have no luck. Even barnacle didn't work. Any suggestions aside from paying verizon?
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
I have had lots of issues with tethering on my x2, and I'm even paying for it. I heard some posts somewhere with rumors that they are blocking it somehow on the x2 but those could just be stories.
Bluetooth tethering works just fine, have you tried that?
Bt tether is so slllloooooowwwwww
Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk
I think this is probably the other thread you were referring to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112325
looks like that one relates to win7 64 bit problems.
I'm pretty strongly considering this phone, but this seems like a real issue.
FWIW:
My rooted X2 is having no trouble tethering with Wireless Tether 2.0.7.
- (Not on the Market anymore, but just Google "Wireless Tether")
I have used it without issue to get Internet access on Win7 64, Win7 32, OG Droid, iPad, Ubuntu 10.10 and probably a few others.
I've also had no trouble using EZ-Tether (paid) with Win7 64 and Ubuntu 10.10.
cool, glad to hear that
No Luck
I'm having no luck with the X2. First one was acting up so I took it back and they said they'd replace it. When they took the battery cover off it showed that the phone had water damage. I only had it 10 days and it never left my pocket or my hand. So they replaced it anyway. Got home with the second one and had just got everything reinstalled... all 110 apps and then someone called me... they couldn't hear me. Bad Microphone! so I took it back the next day and the service rep said she'd replace it. She got a new one out of the box and went to activate it and it wouldn't even communicate with Verizon's network! So she had to call a Tech. You know it's bad when a tech has to call a tech lol. The tech told her that it was probably a dud and to get a new one. So needless to say I'm on my fourth X2 in two days and this one is still acting up. I receive multiple repeat txts, the phone freezes, it won't download apps unless I stay in the market while it's downloading and even that sometimes doesn't work, music skips, lags, just all around isn't even close to the Droid incredible that I just upgraded from. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated cuz I'm tired of hearing from all my Iphone owning friends how Droid sucks!

Sounds like you are having no luck with your X2 at all. First off, your post has very little to do with the thread, needs moved to it's own thread with a proper title (mod help please). Second, have you rooted and removed the bloat from the phone? When I first got mine, it was super laggy and had some serious issues. I rooted, killed all the useless junk (frozen, not removed), and have yet to have a problem. As a matter of fact, this phone is damn fast when the fat is cleaned up.
So, go read the first post in this thread: Getting Started with the X2 ... I'm sure you will see major differences once done. Also, try not to threadjack... it's not cool.
I too tried to tether my xoom to the x2 without success. The xoom does not like to connect to an adhoc net, and that is what wireless tether sets up. With my OG Droid, I was able to use BT tethering with the xoom, but that doesn't want to work with the x2.
I think I saw there was some hack for the xoom that allowed it to connect adhoc, so that might be my next trial.

I ran wifi tether on my rooted Dinc and my XOOM connected perfectly. I've tried almost all of the versions and nothing has worked. So I'm lost.

As a result of the hurricane that hit NJ looks like im going to be with out power for the next few days. I'm running on a generator now, but I have never used tethering on my phone because I didn't want to get charged by verizon. I'm rooted on ED05 and was wondering if I use an app from the market that isn't VZW's tethering app will they notice and just automatically charge me? Or Can I get away with tethering to my laptop and not getting charged.

As long as your not downloading hd movies e something else that takes huge amounts of data I think you'll be fine...i'm sure someone will chime in and tell you tethering is stealing but if your just doing light browsing or have to view something important like e mail or whatever...you won't have a problem, but I have heard they were trying to stop tethering or at lay catch people doing it on the latest ed05 update but I don't know if that's just a rumor? I have a tethering App on my phone and I have uses it twice just to see how well it worked but I haven't used it enough to tell you for sure if they will know if you're doing it or not...I would imagine if you don't go over your data cap you would be fine...idk?

Here are a few problems I have with the amaze so far...
1) Fluctuating service. I hate this. I will have all the bars showing and then all of a sudden I get no service. What's up with that? The sensation would at least holds two bars at all times. (Oh and no wifi calling!)
2) Overheating issue. This phone gets too hot for no reason. For example I browse for 15 minutes and bam..its really hot. I make sure I exit apps by hitting the back button and my brightness is at 15%. There's no excuse for this.

4) wifi turning off??? I could be on wifi for a good hour and everything is OK, then I turn on the phone again to use it and I'm not connected to wifi anymore. I manually turn wifi on and off to get it to work again.
5) On the bottom in between the menu and back key my amaze has some light leaking through. Its tiny. I didn't notice it until it was completely dark but its there and now I can't help but keep staring at it. I wish I had a camera to take a picture of it.
6) Lastly and the most annoyong thing for me is a clicking sound. When I pick up the phone it sounds like something getting snapped in place. And its almost everytime. Wtf is that. haha.

the no wifi calling thing sucks, will be fixed with root/update so meh
my battery drains about 50% when i'm sleeping, though this may be to mediocre service that goes in and out, going to try and shut mobile network off tonight and see if it fixes the issue
Though I agree with most of the other "problems" ya'll have listed...
I was told by 3 representatives, and one sales person (who sold me the phone) that you have to activate the new sim card included with the device to take advantage of the new wifi-calling that T-Mobile is rolling out (this includes the new GSII on t-mo). - I spoke with so many because none of them could activate the new sim correctly...and were baffled themselves as to why it was so difficult...haha.
Honestly, I havent been able to test wifi calling because the place where I'm renting has never worked with mobile devices, except for apple devices (of course...haha). I may report back here later when i go somewhere else with wifi.
Just wanted to pass on some info I was told by 4 separate people - they all claimed that's what a memo showed on their system when they pull up the AMAZE and GSII.
I come from a mytouch 4g, i have the same issue, suddenly i have no service then it's back on again. Never had that with the mytouch...
Well, I have had mine since launch day. I have a little but not much light bleed. I have had no heating issues. Last night out at bars I saw the signal issue. One sec I could speed test and pull down 14. Then I would notice no 4G symbol, try to speed test again and it would say no signal. Still love it though, nice and fast!!
My buttons light up when it's dark, but not when it's light. Is there anyway to turn this light sensor off and keep these lights on so I can see my home, menu etc buttons?

Definately seems there is a (buttons) light sensor, they do basically stay on at night, not in daytime.

The sim is not controlling the software, but it can affect what information is communicated with t-mobile.
I don't know what you mean by you don't have this feature. Among other ways to activate the hotspot capability, you should find the "Wi-Fi Hotspot" app on the device.
Just to repeat/clarify my original statement/post: The Amaze 4G and the GS II (according to others) allow you to activate the wifi hotspot feature, have your other wifi-enabled devices connect to your phone, but when you try to access the internet with those wifi-enabled devices, you are prompted to upgrade your plan to include the $15/mo. plan.
I hope this is clear to all.
Te whole service popping in and out is starting to drive me nuts!!!! 3 bars of 4g then nthing! 1 bar of 4g then it turns into 2 bars of 2g! WTH!?!?!? Never had soo many reception issues on ANY of my Tmo phones!
Dosent seem to matter where I am when this happens as it happens often, far too often!
I have to assume that of all the connection point inside the back cover of the phone at least ONE of them is some sort of antenna?????
Cmon Tmo?!?!?
Even if it does warm up, I doubt that you will feel it if you put it in a case. Unless the phone is burning up..then yeah.
I am coming from a HTC sensation 4G and it had WiFi calling and WiFi hotspot feature.
The manual that comes with the amaze shows how to use WiFi calling also the one on HTC's site,
If I could put the sensation Rom on the amaze I would be happy as the sensation had what I want working,
I love the feel of the Amaze it feels much more masculine and fits nice in my big hands I find my self not mistakenly touching the softkey's as much.
Also I can seem to figure out where 4gb or the Rom is as it shows only 9gb for storage and 2gb for something else
On another note I have seen a post that shows an Amaze with WiFi calling, the had an earlier firmware,

why would you get flamed. only 99% of the people on this site know more about the devices theyre holding and things their carrier offers to them then the actual employees, one of the most known things probably being the grace period you have to return/swap out your phone if you want... noooo, no reason to be flamed.

To those who are experiencing issues with the Amaze especially after returning it a million times before buyers remorse is up, I recommend testing out the GS2 aka Hercules. Other than the resolution this phone is really great. The resolution isn't that noticeable unless you have OCD.

I jumped ship to the GSII. So far I'm happier. The amaze does have more bells and whistles but it was a bit heavy for me and the GS II has got - not substantially - but improved battery life and a more visually appealing screen. Also my eyes aren't great, so I actually appreciate the lower resolution screen which keeps the icons bigger. I can see the pixels easier than on the qhd of the amaze, but i have to be "looking for them" to really notice.
Some people are having better luck with their Amaze so just like a ton of other companies out there these days...there's a big quality control issue.
Looking service is really getting on my nerves now and i dont like this any more. Wonder if there will a fix for this from HTC or Tmobile
