[Problem][Q] ACCIDENTALY SELECTED 'USA BAND' HOW CAN I FIX? Please help! - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

First of all my Atrix is > ROOTED but LOCKED bootloader with stock android 2.3.4 / 4.5.91.MB860.ATT.en.US
I was playing around with my Atrix and then I entered *#*#4636*#*# >> Phone information >> menu botton >> Select radio band >> USA BAND.
I lost my radio signal, I cannot talk or text.
I searched from the internet to find solution but Non of the informations are up to date.
I'm so noob to fix the phone but I have no choice, I will try it. I bought it from USA and I'm in Turkey now.
What I ve done: FACTORY RESET and Power button+Volumedown button.. Wipe date. None of them has worked.
What can I do to fix it? Please help me, I need to know what to do and HOW to do.

The only way to fix this is by reflashing the baseband (or full flash, but be careful with that).

But I dont know how to do that. Can you tell me what can I do? Or is there any solutions?

I also replied on your other thread. Check it out. If you have to unlock your bootloader you can search the dev forum for radio basebands that work best in your region.

If you want to keep it locked, use full flash with RSD, but make sure you use the EXACT SAME sbf version as the one that's on your phone now.

Hi I am from India.
I happened to have selected the USA band on my Atrix 4g ATT accidentally as well.
Read a lot of posts on the internet regarding to solve it but all the files are either deleted or not available from the download sites.
I would just request if anybody would help me out with it.
i have it updated to android 2.3.6 and its not rooted nor is its bootloader unlocked.
the phone itself is network unlocked i.e i can use it with any network.
please help me out i need to find a solution to it quickly.

I think you'd better off sending a pm to the OP of that thread. Those radios he posted are both for the AT&T Atrix. I have an international Atrix with a different radio, so I can't help you any further. Sorry...

System Settings, Call Settings and navigate to Mobile Network. You need to make sure you are set to Automatic and not Manual. This will then use your carrier info from the SIM card to select your operator.

It's to easy, don't panic about this, you can flash ALL the radios out there in the internet for the Atrix 4G and see which one does the best performance for you.
You just need to search in xda something about "Atrix radios" and you will fin a lot, try to use the one recommended for you region.
To flash you just need to do the next steps:
1.- Put the zip file on the sd
2.- Reboot into recovery
3.- Select instal zip from sd card
4.- Search for the place where you put the zip file
5.- flash it
And that's all, it may take a little for the radio to be fully functional, but after a while it will work perfectly
Good luck
EDIT: Here is the link for the Atrix radios http://www.multiupload.nl/G8T8IGZF05

Do i need to Unlock the bootloader and root my atrix 4g for flashing the radio?
or
Is flashing the radio possible without rooting and unlocking?

You need an unlocked bootloader and a custom recovery to do any kind of flashing.
Rooting is irrelevant.

[Q] Ace 5830L - not receiving making calls -no network

Hi, Until 4 days ago everythink was fine.
I did NOT do any changes to the phone.
Recently, I was calling with difficulty and receiving sometimes (call and txt.msg.)
Today I just does not get the network.
I talked to my provider and check the line - it is fine.
I asked for problems on the network - it is fine
I asked if the phone is in negative (blocked by the provider - stolen or found phones) - it is not (sometimes it happens in Argentina for many reasons)
My chip is working in a different phone
A different chip (line) that works fine is not working on the Ace.
Internet is working fine
Last thing to check is if the antenna has a problem.
Before taking the phone to a service provider, that is a pain in the ... , since it takes time.....
Do you know how can I test it?
Thank you.
Maybe this is being caused by the baseband. If your phone is S5830L it is the Latin America version so I am guessing that for your region you need the Latin America Baseband.

My phone is 5830L, it used to work.
It has been purchased to the local provider, so this is the version I should be using.
Maybe I would need to test the basebands??

What baseband are you currently on?
Did you do any updates to the phone whether it be official or a custom rom?
If you did you probably changed the baseband you're supposed to be on.

You should try a different baseband. Flash the S5830LUBKP7
That one works fine for me.

Ok so you need help geting into download mode?
But the clip you linked shows exactly how to get into download mode.
Hold vol down and home while phone is off and then turn the phone on.
Also you need to keep trying out different basebands to see which one works well with your region/country
You could also visit sammobile.com to find some stock firmwares to odin them to your phone and try to check if the baseband you had before is available.

What happened on my post was that first I did not know how to boot in download, but after I posted I googled the solution and I wrote it down.
IN terms of the phone: after the change you suggested (and that I did) the phone worked for the first minutes and after that it was dead.
Finally, today as a miracle it is working fine. Just like that.!!!
It seems that People from Personal Telecom are getting afraid when their system is not working and in particular with the latest event on Movistar and Claro.
Thanks for you help.

[Q] where can i find israeli SBF ?

where can i find israeli Atrix 4g 2.3.6 SBF ?
my device is from ATT and it has to be compatible with Cellcom (operator).
Thanks !!!
Flashing a non-ATT sbf will ruin your phone. Just set up and use a Cellcom APN.

Gotchya. What build are you running now?
If you've already unlocked the bootloader, forget about RSDLite. You may accidentally brick your phone. Just flash a Fruitcake via recovery.

All you need is the Cellcom APN.
Do not try and flash a non-ATT SBF to your Atrix. It will not work.
And to answer your question "But where is the danger in RSDlite ?", it's dangerous because if you flash the wrong SBF by accident you can permanently brick your phone. If I were you I would just flash a 2.3.6 Fruitcake via recovery. It's the same thing minus the troublesome bootloader problems.
if you device is at&t manufactured , then you need at&t sbf
if it's from orange manufactured , then i can give you the for the orange sbf
any of those should work with cellcom , but you must match the one for your specific device (as described above)
Thank you and please take a look at this

I do not want a fruitcake because 2.3.6 is only on the test server and it is not the final release.

How to flash OTA flash files downloaded from samfirmware?

Hi all
How should I flash the OTA flash files downloaded from Samfirmware?? Should I use ADB?? If yes, can anyone tell me the commands??
I normally flash phones with SPT/RIFF box, so I am a bit rusty in ADB
Kind regards
I'd say use Odin. But just to be sure, Check the stickies in the general forum. Use the search if not sure.

Hi!
Just use odin to flash the firmware.. i'm pretty sure most of the fw would just be on PDA in odin.

If you are talking about OTA and not the full firmware..it has to be flashed in stock recovery...first make sure you have the correct firmware version on your phone..the firmware version required will be given alongside the OTA on samfirmware..now move the OTA to your sdcard..reboot into stock recovery..use vol up+power+home buttons..then choose install update from there..
I need to do this. I'll do a Titanium Backup before, but should I expect all my content, apps, preferences and all that to be intact after the procedure (presuming everything goes the way it should)?
Edit: Also, why can't I see an option for United States in the drop-down menu when narrowing down my device? Should I use some other country?

And do you know what this ota files are used for? I've an S5830 from Vodafone(Spain) and I want to get it back to the original firm (you know, operator apps and some more innecesary ****), but I'm unable to find one on the internet.
Looking at www.samfirmware.com, the only thing I've seen about my device and Vodafone is the OTA file i'm talking about, but I'm not pretty sure if flashing it will let my phone in factory defaults.
I need to flash a Vodafone rom because I wanna send it to the technical support.
