Any fix yet? - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok so I've had the ATRIX and then went to the inspire and iphone 4 now im back with the ATRIX and was wondering if there is any fix for the sudden loss of vibration on the keyboard and soft keys

Erm... Try data wipe? Haven't had this issue, so hopefully you can fix it with software reset.
My ATRIX has wrote this without my consent!

This is my third ATRIX and all had this problem vibration turns off and on

Hmmm... like i said mine is fine. Maybe you are doing something specific with the phone that disables vibration? Installing some app maybe? Changing some setting, etc?

That would be my guess, a 3rd party app. Have you tried using it after a reset without installing any apps? Do you use TiBu to restore app data? Is this issue happening in any specific situation (eg. texting, web browsing, etc)???

This happens to me only when using the keyboard(stock).

I use titanium back up to uninstall at&t bloat ware does titanium cause this?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App

OK so the problem is still happening were I lose vibration when typing it seems to be a hardware issue because when the vibration stops all I have to do is shake the phone or lightly tap it so I'm calling warranty replacement

IMO It's usually better to freeze apps in TiBu than uninstalling them. Just makes things so much easier to unfreeze than scramble looking for and installing apps if there are any conflicts down the road...

I know it's not a fix - but you could always download the standard Android 2.3 keyboard and be done with the Moto one.
Regardless of any faults, I always used this keyboard on my Galaxy S over the (horrible) Samsung one... you will also know if the fault is hardware or software related.

[Q] How to show calls over lock screen?

I'm having this problem where lock screen is over everything including incoming calls. It's getting annoying that i have to unlock the screen to see who's calling me.
How to customize it so that I can at least answer calls and see pop-ups without unlocking the screen. Thanks.

+1 same with me I'm rooted no lagfix but this happens once in a while.

It's probably the root...I rooted and performed the lag fix and had problems with my phone....especially when I tutored to play music....through either pandora or my own mp3s....my browser would suddenly close,etc...I wouldn't be surprised if this is what is causing it....good thing you can unroot and verify. I have no problems with incoming or outgoing calls

Wow this is weird. I thought the 1-click lagfix causes this. And I've been trying to reboot the phone to get rid of it but no luck so far.
If your not rooted or don't have the one click lag fix...and you are having problems, I would take it up to customer support...

Google Talk

Ive tried researching this but I have came up empty handed. It appears once my screen is off google talk is logged out. How do I keep google talk always logged in?
Thanks for any help!

I really hope this isnt a wide spread thing. I use Google talk heavily. I cant afford for it to disconnect upon my screen timing out. I havent used it since I activated my phone to test though.
Maybe check under the power saver option in settings. There is an option to turn off background data when the screen turns off. Maybe that's it?

I will try that setting out and report back

Just uncheck auto away status and it will stop logging out.

Is anyone else having an issue where google talk won't load for them? I touch the icon and it looks like it loads for a second then flashes back to the app drawer. I tried clearing the application data, didn't help, and of course I can't uninstall/reinstall

Yup, I have to restart the phone to get it working. I also notice that Restart does NOT restart the phone for me. It powers it down.

[Q] Visual Voicemail on CM7?

Is there a way to get vvm working? I get bootloops and loss of haptic buttons once restored from TB. Have to reinstall rom after to regain button functionality. Yes, I included the service too. Tried w&w/o data.

unfortunately carrier apps like visual voice mail don't work on cm7..i got that response from jt himself when I asked the same question...his recommendation and mine, get google voice..it may not be as pretty, but it works on any rom and is free!

I've been wondering about this too. I've got about 25 saved voicemails that are a ***** to go through over the phone.
How difficult is it to port your number over to g voice?

Super easy install gapps.zip or grab it from goggle and the first time you open the app it gives you a phone number to call...it beeps a couple times and hangs up and then a menu pops up to guide you through so other basic setup questions...literally takes about three minutes

Freezes after every Google Play update notification

Since upgrading to Jellybean Optus edition my phone freezes every time there's pending updates in Google Play. I dont actually get to know about the notification until I reboot. Then it comes through. Turning off auto update doesn't seem to make a difference. I don't know what to check if there is some conflict with an app that Ive installed that could be causing the lockup.
Regards
Pete

I tried that and it didn't fix the problem. I am suspecting that Instagram may be causing the problem as it this has been running in the background each time the freeze occurs.

App collision by instagram? if you really think that is the reason send a bug report to instagram dev's.
Try uninstalling instagram and check whether the problem occurs again though.

so flashing the stock sbf via rsd doesn't fix that?

Download a flashlight app (for example, torch, flashlight, etc.) If it does not work, your camera has an issue and needs replaced. If thats the case, buy a new atrix, the flex cable that the camera is on is hard to find.

Cameras for this phone aren't hard to find. Just go to that auction site and enter MB860 camera flex. Hundreds available and they are like 9 bucks. Also, teardown of the phone is available in the interwebs so anyone can do it easily.
