Mobile Network Not Available? - Motorola Photon 4G

So I'm on the o.4.5 CM9 ROM and I get an error saying "Mobile Network Not Available?" I've tried to type in "*#*#4636#*#*" to change the info, but it doesn't even go into that menu.. Not so sure as to what the heck is wrong.

Did you flash the CDMA fix? (or GSM if that's what you're using)

no, how would i go and do that? just download it off the jokersax site and flash it? or do i have to format/system/data/cache and started the process all over again?

okay now i'm getting some error that my com.android.phone isn't working either and says it's closed. really really confused.

I did the following and still have the same error after the following.
1. Wiped system/format/cache
2. Data/factory reset
3. Installed 0.3.1 then 0.4.5.
4. Flashed CDMA fix
5. Flashed gapps
6.Rebooted

Same here. So I flashed CDMA fix, no go, dialed *#*#4636#*#* changed prl to CDMA auto. Still no go, so wipe flash 3.1 from cm9 fixes thread. Good signal. Wipe cache, flash 4.5 and gapps. All good now

So, I do as follows?
1. Wipe system/data/cache <----- Or do I not wipe the cache here since I am in step number 3?
2. Flash 0.3.1
3. Wipe cache
4. Flash 0.4.5
5. Flash gapps
6. Reboot

1. Format system, cache, data, and wipe dalvik cache.
2. Install 0.3.1
3. Reboot into recovery
4. Flash 0.3.1 again.
5. Reboot to make sure you have signal and data. No need to flash g apps yet.
6 . Go back into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache.
7. Flash 0.4.5.
8. Reboot into recovery.
9. Flash 0.4.5 again, and flash g apps.
Once you boot up you should be good to go.

[Q] Switching between ROMS?

Hey guys, quick question. I am currently running CM7 on my V but it is to unstable for me, too many FC's and reboots. I would like to flash That Ain't Sense ROM, found here:
http://androidforums.com/optimus-v-all-things-root/312747-rom-theme-wait-aint-sense-4-6-2011-a.html
Under the directions, it says:
how to flash:
put gapps and rom on sdcard
wipe the hell out of your phone
flash both and reboot
enjoy
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
When it says, wipe the hell out of the phone, what specifically do I have to wipe, and at what time during the process? Since I am moving to an entirely new ROM, what do I need to wipe?
P.S. I am running thunderc recovery.
Data, cache, system, dalvik cache and something else i can't remember. If am i not wrong, ROMManager doesn't work on the V, so you can't switch back and forth freely, unless there is another method.

You wanna wipe before flashing a new ROM. I wipe data/cache, then Dalvik cache then flash ROM, then gapps file

Is that all I have to wipe? I made a nandroid backup but I just want to make sure I'm doing this right.
Sent from my VM670 using XDA App
This should be in Q&A
That's all I wipe. Wiping everything won't hurt though. Just don't do a factory reset through the settings with the phone booted up. Do it through the recovery.

[Q] Wifi Error

Hello there,
I've been using my Atrix (unlocked bootloader, Orange Stock 2.3.4) for over 2 weeks and yesterday, suddenly, the Wifi stopped. I can't activate the Wifi [in other words, it is not a network issue], it simply doesn't enable. When I try to enable the wifi, it takes like 20 secs and after that I recieve a "Error" msg. Just it.
Sometimes, the Atrix reboots while trying to enable the wifi.
Things I did so far:
- Wipe data (factory reset via phone and via android recovery)
- Wipe cache
- Reflashed Orange Stock 2.3.4 ROM
- Flashed another ROM (nCrust).
*edit: - Flashed another ROM (Ninja 0.4)
*edit: - Changed the kernel from INTL-MBR-d00-GB-Kernel-0.1.2-ext4-sv to INTL-MBR-d00-original-kernel
*edit: - Changed the kernel back to INTL-MBR-d00-GB-Kernel-0.1.2-ext4-sv
I've been looking around for problems like mine and a found a couple dead topics with no decisive answer.
Any suggestions? Could be a hardware failure?
I'm just asking because I want to use the warranty as my last resource.
Thanks in advance

Try forgetting the network on your phone and renaming your wifi and connect to it.
Sounds weird, but it worked for me.

You need to do a full wipe and then flash a ROM.

Full wipe? How can that be done? What's the difference between "Wipe data/factory reset" from the Android Recovery and the full wipe?
Thanks again

Yeah, my Bluetooth is working.
I'm trying to change the kernel.
I got this problem after i restored my nandroid backup with other kernel than the present one.
Anyway , i just did full wipe and installed the rom again, now everything is ok.

What kernel are u using? How did you do a full wipe? I read all the "[Updated 8-2-2011] THE BEGINNERS (N00B) GUIDE!!! N00BS LOOK HERE FOR YOUR HOW TOs" topic without finding how a full wipe can be done
Faux123 OC 1.1GHZ kernel.
Get into recovery and flash cache, dalvik-cache and factory\data wipe.
Its written in that guide under ROMs & Kernels section:
3) Boot into CWM Recovery
4) Wipe Dalvik Cache (under advanced in CWM)
5) Wipe Cache Partition
6) Wipe data/factory reset
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I did exactly as you say and nothing changed.
This is what I did after:
fastboot -w (to wipe again)
moto-fastboot flash system ORFR234-system.img (Orange stock 2.3.4)
moto-fastboot flash boot ORFR234-tegrapart-d00100.boot.img
fastboot reboot
After the reboot, I installed the kernel "INTL-MBR-d00-GB-Kernel-0.1.2-ext4-sv" again, from the Android Recovery menu.
And still nothing... No wifi + auto-reboots ;/
Wait, the MBR-d00 is " [<{ Tegrapart=d00 Compatible with ATT U4_5.9.1 ROM}>] ", for ATT, not for Orange system.
Don't you need to install the other kernel ?
This one: "[<{ Tegrapart=1100 Compatible with Orange 4_5.2.1A ROM}>] " ???
Just flash the original kernel to see if the Wifi is working ok.
Sorry if i wrong or missing something, i got AT&T Atrix device, im not an international user.
When I type (su) cat /proc/cmdline I get this result "tegrapart=mbr:d00:100:800,kpanic:2100:400:800 ...", that's why I need a kernel d00 compatible, I think.
And thanks again for helping me out, Ofek
OK you doing fine.
After you fastboot flash the system and the boot img files, and reboots, is the WIFI working without the error? and no auto-reboots?
Nope ;/
Wifi still not working. I still can't activate it
Did you try to update the radio?
I don't think so... I'll look into it

wipe data/factory reset only clears user data. to do a full wipe you need to do that, clear the cache, and wipe system but then you need to have a unlocked BL so you can flash a rom image right away.
I think I got the answer... It's the kernel, I believe.
When I use a terminal emulator on my device and use the command #modprobe -v /system/lib/dhd.ko it says that it couldn't load the file.
Still looking into it.
Changed to mbr_d00 GB Kernel Version 0.1.3 and still no wifi.
Trying the mbr_d00 original Kernel Version
No success so far ;/
This sounds to me like a radio problem. Just my two cents, I would look for the answer in flashing the stock radio.

[Q] how to install malice v5.0 for the First time????

how do i install it? im new to this and i need to know if i just flash the most current or do i have to flash a older version then do the new one?
You have to root your phone, and install a custom recovery.
If you already have that, just follow the instructions in the post:
For all users:
-Download Malice.zip and place on your sdcard.
-Boot into Clockwork Recovery and Wipe Data/Factory Reset Before You Move On.
-Flash Malice.zip.-While still in recovery: Wipe Cache Partition, and inside the advanced menu: Wipe Dalvik Cache and Fix Permissions
-Just These Three Steps, Do Not Factory Reset Again.
-Reboot Your Phone AND LET IT SIT. (I know you're excited, but its for the best.)
-After about 10 minutes, you should reboot again to clean things up and wipe out any bugs.
-Enjoy!
The above instructions are perfect, I've recently gone back to malice from simply honey. Don't forget to check out the themes for it as well. I'm using ice blue edition, and the assassin theme looks nice too.
Enjoy the nice ROM.

Do you have Clockwork installed form the Market? If so, you may have to Reinstall Packages twice in the 4 option recovery menu. That shoudl get you into CWR after the second one.
Make sure you have downloaded ROM manager from the market and have installed clockwork recovery from there first. Then if you are in the stock recovery, chooses reinstall packages.... You might have to do this twice I below to get into clockwork.... It's been a while since I've been on stock but that should get you in.

The not wiping anything part is probably your problem. You should always at least wipe cache and dalvik. Data and system can stay intact. Make sure you downloaded the right version aswell. (Cdma/gsm) wipe those and try again. If that doesn't work, perhaps try those fixes youre refering to and if that doesn't work, full wipe.

Which rom are you referring to? cm10 is his latest i believe? Is your photon unlocked & rooted? What Recovery did you flash? (joker has A CWM specially made for his roms) Unless you are upgrading a rom to a newer version of it, or you are using aroma installer, it is always important to wipe your phone prior to flashing. Im a wee bit OCD about it, so i
1) Wipe data/factory reset
2) Wipe Cache Partition
3) Format System
4) Format Data
5) Format Cache
6) Wipe Dalvic Cache
Then begin flashing. For safe measures always flash your rom twice to ensure it has been properly flashed
*edit*
Did you flash from a stock rom? If so, which gingerbread version was it running? and did you ensure to update it before you flashed?

[Q] Nightmare Sence Booting up problem

I had CM10 and i decided to give Sence 4 a try as CM10 isnt too stable. I followed all instructions i wiped data dalvik and cache in 4ext recovery then, in aroma i did a custom installation did a full wipe and only clicked on SuperSU by chainfire while using Nightmare's Kernel and rebooted in recovery not in aroma itself as Sportsstar89 said in the installlation video. Everything seemed to be going good the white HTC boot animation showed up but then it got stuck in the black HTC screen for a good 15 min. i had to go back into recovery and flash cm10 again. what did i do wrong? when i went back into recovery to flash the back up it said that 4ext was in "safe mode" and that i had to wipe cache(which i did) and then restart the recovery.
i really want to use sence 4 but i dont want to get an error again and brick my phone or something. has this happened to anyone before?
You have to do a full wipe if going from cm10 to sense. (Or vise versa)
So do a factory reset, wipe both caches, and wipe system. Then flash

Actually I did that too I forgot to mention it I did a factory reset and wiped both dalvik and cache what else could have been my issue?

you need to format the system also.. since CM10 and Sense are like hmm windows xp and windows.. 8... yes its still windows but you wanna format the HD not just try to do a "update" lol.. if that makes sense.. but yes a full wipe includes all of the following.. (wipe data/foctory.. wipe cache.. format system and lastly wipe delvik )... or you can just dl the "super wipe" script in my sig and just flash that then flash a rom, because it's suppose to be able to do all of the above (plus realign the partitions and fix system file errors)
