Hi guys,
i used a sim unlock code to unlock the ATT locked Atrix 4g, for use with a european sim card (mobitel, slovenia). it unlocked fine and i could call, but the wifi stopped working it just didnt scan/find or even connect to remembered wifis (home router), which worked perfectly before the unlock. so than i thought it might help to factory reset it, and now the problem persists and i cant even finish the wizard, cuz it wouldnt connect to the cellular (which we have 2g and 3g here) and the wifi has the same problems (so initially it finds all wlans, than after like a few secs it looses them all, i can turn off the wifi and turn it on again and the same thing happens). so i am wodering if anyone has any idea how i could rescue the phone ...
thanks in advance
ok guys i did a hard reset and put in a nonworking sim (doesnt connect to network) and i got the wifi back to working and managed to activate motoblur again. so after that ive put my working sim card in again (3g+ hsdpa+ able), and the wifi stops to work again/behaves the same as i described before. terrible ... anyone has an idea how to fix that ?
ok, more problems, now after ive put the working sim inside and the wifi stopped working, i tried with the nonworking sim (that wifi worked great before with), and the wifi isnt working with the sim it was working before either and even if i try without any sim it doesnt work... ill try with a third sim now and if it wont work ill hard reset it again
Same problem
I have the same exact issue. Anyone know what to do? I can't imagine that this is "bricked" because everything else works fine... thoughts?
where did you guys get the unlock code from?
Actually, I have a similar problem. After entering unlock code the phone accepts my SIM card, but I cannot activate 3G connection. GSM is working, try to call my other phone. APN settings are correct.
In the "hidden" settings menu (*#*#4636#*#*) I cannot chose between radio bands, but only the USA radio band.
Any ideas? Will I need to root it or even put a custom ROM (if it exists)?
So you guys used an unlock code from someone other than the carrier and are now having issues?
Wish I could help on this one. If you used an unlock code from someone other than the carrier, I would contact motorola support.
If you used a piece of software, I would wager that the software broke something and you might as well warranty return it for another.

Don't be offended, but I don't think this is the case. AT&T locked their phone to their network with standard network code (as seen in many other phones for years) so that "alien" SIM card would not work. But, additionally, since the AT&T has some value added services on their data plan (like wifi tethering) they made some accommodations (read: locked parts of the android configuration).
I am not a developer, this is just my guess, but it seams sane and probable.

No offense taken. This is why I asked about a program. Using an unauthorized code to unlock it may over write a.setting or file. Its also possible that someone broke something using adb.
Best solution, warranty it and try again

can you guys tell us what website you use to get your unlock codes from so we can avoid them? thanks
man.. this forum is dead.
even the OP stopped coming here to check his post :/
Based on your replies, I'm guessing you've never unlocked a phone before...
Unlocking a phone to be used for a different carrier affects nothing else but the ability to only use the SIM Card of the carrier you bought the phone from.
To unlock a carrier-locked Motorola phone, you simply need a "Network Unlock PIN" which is an 8 or 16 digit code that you enter to unlock the phone to any network. There is no software installation ivolved in the process.
A 3G issue will occur when your carrier doesn't support the 3G bands that the Atrix supports. Which would be: 850/1900/2100. If your carrier doesn't use any of these bands for their 3G network, then of course you are going to have 3G issues.
The Wi-Fi problem that the OP is having may be as simple as him having an antenna QA issue. But it could never be the Unlock Code.
Unlocking your phone and using another carrier other than AT&T has nothing to do with Wi-Fi issues...

I got my unlock code from cellunlock.net. It unlocked my phone just fine. Don't use that as a reason to avoid cellunlock.net. Unlocking is unlocking.
I have swapped back and forth between my prepaid sim and My AT&T SIM about 5 times so far.
WiFi disconnects almost immediately when I try to connect with my prepaid sim inserted, but I can make calls. (Atrix also displays H+, which can't be right)
With my AT&T sim everything works fine, solid as a rock.
I may do a factory reset to test things, but I have a feeling it has something to do with drivers or the network stack on the atrix, or perhaps because my prepaid sim has no data plan. It certainly isn't a hardware problem with the antenna. I am afraid to do a factory reset on the atrix while I am out of the country, considering that it requires network access to unlock itself.
To the original poster:
When you put a non-connected SIM into the phone, if you do a power reset again, the wifi comes back up solid again.
Also, is there some way we can request a merge of these two threads?

I was merely suggesting that it could be a multitude of things, but never the unlocking code or the process of unlocking itself.
Also, it can't be your SIM because your SIM has nothing to do with Wi-Fi. If we were talking about GSM and 3G then SIM cards come into play. Other than that, no way.
Have you tried using the phone without a SIM? Do you get the same problems?

I agree that it has nothing to do with the SIM or unlocking.
I just tested. I get the same problem with no SIM inserted. Screw it.. doing a factory reset and seeing what happens.
Edit:
Still does the same thing. But now I have to re-activate app sideloading.
Also, you can reactivate over wifi, which is nice.
Please if you found solution reply here, but read at least first post before.
1. Does AT&T SIM reactivate WiFi, after other operator SIM used? - Yes (in my case), but you may need to reboot (soft) 2-3 times.
2. Does Motorola Update 1.57 solve the WiFi problem? - NOT IT DOES NOT.
3. Why part of unlocked phones have WiFi problem and others not? - Open question, as it is NOT a hardware failure, it is somehow related to unlocking process.
4. Is there any solution at all? - Honorable member crnkoj is developing the solution in this thread
IMHO WiFi related issue currently deserves sticky. Also it would be perfect to have one stop FAQ for WiFi related issues.
Im using an unlocked atrix n the wifi is working fine...
You in the lucky group. Mine is unlocked and none of the many potential solutions get me on wifi (short of tossing a broken sim in, which is a pain...)

1. Apparently people who have one, reported it reactivates wifi after a few reboots, otherwise you have to put in a broken sim and do a factory restore to get it to work
2. It does NOT (not the leaked 1.5.2, not the leaked 1.2.6 and not the prerelase 1.5.7)
3. i think it has something to do with a config file or an app that blocks it (altho im leaning toward a config file that gets from the carrier some info and not really blocks but more like a bug disables wifi, because of some conflict)
4. you can use your phone with sim card and 3g/4g data, while preinstalling everything before on wifi, or just use it a a small wifi only "tablet". I am unfortunately not that good with android/linux to figure it out on my own (i sort of got the phone into a boot loop 3 times now, trying to delete apps/ change config files in the /system dir). One of the forum/irc users is nice and tries helping me , but he doesnt have the phone himself so, hard thing ...
5. Hopefully the released source codes will help, doing a semi custom rom without the att bloatware, which could probably fix the issue.
What about the new update that was just released does that fix the problem?
It seems up to now there is no solution for wifi problem. Several reboots doesn't work for me. Please respond if someone was able to succeed.
BMW, maybe read the 2nd point of my above post, no update fixes it.

I thought the new update started with a 4 but now I figured it out sorry.
It was big buzz week ago on broken wifi on unlocked AT&T phones. Now I can't find even the thread on that. Did you people find solution?
I have upgraded to 1.57 and it is definitely not a solution.
I tried hard reset with non-working card and wifi on hardware level works perfect. As soon as I've put working SIM in, it stopped and even reversing to non-working sim doesn't help. hard resetting every time is not a solution.
Still waiting for final solution.
I unlocked my Atrix in Australia. I shall walk you though my steps to see if you can pick out anything specific. I was very worried about the WiFi issue so i took many precautions.
I bought the code from Cellunlock.net - using the android50 code to bring it to $20
in the meantime I used an old, inactive SIM in the phone and on boot I would just hit dismiss on the network unlock screen and run the phone on WiFi on my home wireless. (WPA2 key)
When my unlock code arrived (2 days) I went to the wireless settings, DELETED my wireless network from being saved.
TURNED OFF WiFi entirely
Turned phone off properly and replaced the SIM card with my active Vodafone AU SIM
on the network unlock screen, I used the first code out of the two they provided and it was accepted
went back and re-added my wifi network, and doneeee all is working well.. hope this helps someone somewhere.
Thanks a lot DarkRyoushii
Problem is that I received my Atrix already unlocked. I contacted Cellunlock.net if it is possible to unlock it second time, but they responded it is impossible.
What gives me hope, Motorola has to sell originally unlocked phones and their ROM should be free of this AT&T crap. So using that ROM supposedly will help.
I have an AT&T Atrix and the unlock code didn't adversely affect my Wifi. I've actually never had an Android that locked onto Wifi as well as my Atrix. It's tight as hell. Never, ever drops!!
I don't see the correlation between the two but maybe there is some weird quirk. Not denying anyone though. I just wonder what the heck Motorola did to the framework to cause that to happen. Weird.. hope it gets patched up too.
I hope this gets fixed soon. I have an atrix with the sim unlocked. I cant connect to wifi, and I cant get passed the motoblur to set debugging and root the phone. This is very frustrating. I'm in qatar so I dont have a att sim, nor do I have a broken sim either. I guess I have a $600 dollar paperweight.
mine is perfect

Don't put any sim in it at all then turn it on. You should be able to connect to wifi that way and get past the setup.
I don't have an atrix yet but I heard that this works. Goodluck.

Your wifi wont be fixed after you put a sim in but it should get you past the motoblur sign up.

Guys, if you have 3g (or in fact any) data available on your sim its not a problem. When the motoblur setup tips up, click the settings hard button (the one to the left) choose "configure apn" (or something similar), put in the data you get from your carrier and bam, you should be able to finish the setup.
Wargame1 I bought several sims at eBay and is planning to check with them. As soon as they work, I'll let you know and even send you one from Baghdad.
Wifi problem is not solved yet. When Motorola is going to start selling originally unlocked versions? Their rom should help.

just try it with mobile data man, youll be able to activate motoblur...

Hello Problem solvers
I am going to buy an HTC Amaze , but there seems to be a little problem with the network of the phone , below i have stated down the exact lines what the seller has told me. Please suggest should i buy this or not.
The seller says :
"I bought it from someone and everything was unused. I put my sim card in and it worked for a few hours then it was unable to read my sim card. My sim still works on my other smartphone, but I do not have the time to find out what is wrong with the phone. I've tried other sim cards from other phones and also did NOT work. Seems like it won't connect to the network no matter what. Maybe the phone is locked or is not able to be used for whatever reason. Everything on the phone works perfectly as new. WIFI, apps, camera camcorder, games, etc. Everything.. Just doesn't seem like it will get any signal from the service provider. Possibly someone will know what to do and can fix or modify it. Can use it like it is or take it for parts, I don't know. Comes with all original equipment: USB cable/charger, manuals, and will have 8GB micro SD card. AGAIN, THE PHONE IS NOT CONNECTING TO THE NETWORK (SERVICE PROVIDER) AT ALL."

He later adds on to his saying :
UPDATE: Actually, the phone recognizes when a sim card is in, but will not connect to the network to make a call or connect for data. I am almost sure nothing is wrong with the phone and possibly could be a problem with the network or service provider.

Has anyone experienced this before? Please let me know what should i do, The price in which he is giving it to me is very good. If there are any solutions for this problem , please mention.
Thank you forum!

Hmmm....the phone is like a month old. It is still under warranty. Why isn't the seller getting it fixed rather than take a loss? I'd be very suspicious. It could have been reported stolen and locked down. My spidey sense is tingling.
My replacement did this, I went into network settings and chose network, search automatically and wala problem solved. But still don't hand over the green until your sure.

Had a Rezound from Asurion running 4.03.605 and Hboot 2.27. All was well. Left Los Angeles on 12/21. Arrived the next day in the Bay Area on 12/22. And since then? Not able to make or recive a call. All else works: 4G, internet, texting. Just calls. On the phone with Verizon for 1 hour, resettting all data info to my account and phone, no luck. Two hours in store getting new SIM and resetting system...no luck. Another Asurion replacement sent....new SIM card and THE SAME THING! Issue was escalated to Verizon networking team and I spent two hours on the phone yesterday trying to determine issue. Now if the SIM card and all matching items (IMEI) matched up, it should all work, right? The same SIM card was put into two different rezounds...one rooted, one not (fresh out of box) and neither could make a call. The tech finally stated that the software on the phones was the global leak of 4.03 and not a release authorized by Verizon...my reaction - "What?" The tech went so far as to suggest installing the last global leak - 4.05 and new radios and see what happens. Did just that...AND STILL NOTHING. Phone is perfect. Just no phone. Call goes out, connects, then lost. Same for incoming. No one seems to have a solution except blaming the phone software, tower differences between here and L.A....on and on. I find it all BS....because if the plder 4G SIMS are not compatibile, wouldn't many people across the USA have issues? So I come to ask for some of your thoughts. I am plagued right now. Have lost income due to my lack of access and reachability. And being two months shy of my anniversary for an upgrade, the great Corporation will not budge and get me a new working phone. This is a nightmare. I only imagine that as soon as I get back to Los Angeles, the phone will "miraculously" work again.
FYI: I had my original Rezound running 4.05 and Hboot 2.28 back in July 2013...came to the same trip LA->Bay Area. Never had a problem.
Thanks for your time all!
New Sim and different phone with same issues really points to the issue being with the carrier... Not much you can do unfortunately.

ust outta curiosity...do you have data roaming and everything enabled under mobile network settings...that would be my only guess....if not then yes it is verizon...the fact that on 2 seperate phones there is an issue is what gives it away...there is a leaked hboot and radios of hboot 2.28 and the 2.23 radios but idk if this will help your issue

Of the two phones I have in my possesion, one is total stock 4.03.605.....wiped it clean. No calls. The other phone I hacked with Hboot 2.28 and the current radios + 4.05 software....still nothing. A lot of what the senior tech told me is that no phones use those big old SIM cards anymore. Heck, he couldn't even find ONE store that a similar phone I could swap my SIM into in order to see if a call could be made. 1 week now with no phone and no restitution from Verizon. All they want to do is seed me to the Edge program. No dice. I'm fighting this to the end It's clear as day this problem is WAY beyond my control or the phones....all on VZW.

Done it all with the roaming settings, thanks. But as we all surmise, it's Verizon's problem...old phone can't connect with current networks. They need to admit this and get me a new phone.
8 days with no phone capability and counting.
Just tell then it's your work phone, and that you need it for your job or else. Even most prepaid companies like SraightTalk would replace it of it was your work phone. ST even upgrades you, because it is their fault and not yours.

Hello all.
I have had a friend give me a phone from China. This was already running CM10 when I got it and was the international version of the SIII . I have a work iPhone and took the ATT SIM out and placed it in it. I understand I cannot get LTE connection with this device... but the SIM did not appear to be recognized. I looked and there does not appear to be any unlock process for this phone with this software and I did not believe it was SIM locked as the owner told me he slapped regional SIMs in it when he traveled.
Does this imply hardware failure or am I missing something stupid here?

Hey THanks for the reply. Any suggestions as to how I can try alternate SIMS. Shoudl I walk into ATT and ask they replace the SIM for my IPhone as it is not working in other phones or should I buy a smart talk prepaid SIM or something. Any suggestions. Sorry for the seemingly stupid questions.

I tried two att sims with no lucka nd one tmo. I took it to a shop where theyb replaced the reade and still no dice. Technician claimed bad radio flash, but the networks are seen... seems like sim reader. The other thing I noticed is that the device says wcdma on in. I know the chia carrier is gsm and the phone is supposed to be. Any thoughts?

not to resurrect but....
So I have had some updates. I took it to a local shop who attempted to replace the reader and said that a new one had the same issue. I then spoke with my friend who gave it to me and he mentioned some CM issue with SIMs being recognized. I updated the ROM and it worked well for a couple of days. THen I started having intermittant instances of the same issue..... until it completely recurred again.
I have taken it appart and resat the connection (thinking the repair guy didnt do it well and maybe that was my issue) but had no differnt results. I have tried a new ROM (SlimKat) and a couple of Kernels. I have not gotten into modem flashing yet as I am still trying to parse and understand the data there.
The Repair guy thought the modem was misflashed and that the installer who flashed CM11 messed it up. He suggested getting a Stock carrier ROM on there. I thought he was full of it and did not know what he was talking about... esp considering there is no domestic (US) carrier image for the 9300.
Thoughts or options? I have an i747 that I have been using but it does not have an unlocked SIM yet and I have been struggling to make that happen (EVEN WITH A CARRIER PROVIDED CODE??!!!).
Thanks in advanced for any assistance/insight you can provide.

Flashing CM doesn't touch the modem, most asop roms don't.
Try flashing stock which should reset everything.
