screen trouble motorola atrix 4g mb860 - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello forum, please excused my poor english.
A few month ago i was writing a text message when my phone screen doesn't work some parts of the left side (in that moment i was using cm11 android 4.4.4, recovery bigpart). So in that moment i do not care, i was using it with the keyboard horizontal. But with the passage of time the bluetooth, font camera and wifi doesn't work correctly.
I think it was a rom trouble, so i reset my phone, but it doesn't work. I reinstall the rom, doesn't work too. Even i installed the mokee rom (android 5.0.2).
Before cm11 i used cm7, cm9 4.0.4, cm10 cm10.1 (android 4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.2.2, 4.3) and the phone work correctly (except some bugs ). So i reinstalled every of that's roms... the same problem.
I followed the instructions in this article https :// phenobarbital.wordpress.com/2014/08/22/motorola-android-rescatando-al-soldado-atrix-4g . Doen't work too
Searching in youtube i saw a lot of people with the same problem and one of the user comment that it should be the kernel, so i flash every kernel for atrix mb860 that i found in the internet... guess what, nothing.
I'm actually using a miui rom android 4.2.2., it work AMAZING and do not reheat instead from cm7 to cm11 and mokee rom, but i have the same trouble jaja.
with this rom and cm10.1, cm11 and mokee the kernel is the same 3.1.10, i think perhaps this is the cause, but when i try to flash another rom i loss android, then i have to reinstall it (now i know why).
I'm searching for a different kernel that work in android 4.2.2 up.
I'm sorry if i bored you and excused my poor english again if anyone can helpme i being really really grateful, i love that cell phone.

I share a srennshot that show what is the part of sreen that do not work, it is just the space between the vertical lines, ignore the horizontal lines mega : /// #!5IgjmIRI!OFwb0qz2XHv3GvkkZCQiB5NRyL6PceMbfGmxXKLa6qc .

Is it touch screen or screen inside that don't work? U can try official android 2.3 and test all function it's the best, some time ago I have problem with touch screen and it stop working on left side so I had to replace it, about BT and WiFi it the chipset that stops working mosty because of heat that cpu/gpu produced and it's near it. Currently i'm using cm 12.1 (build from 14.06.2016 with kernel 3.1.10 and security patches 01.05.2016) which have few bug like not working fingerprint sensor and wrongly showing that I don't have gsm connection but I have, rest is great wifi, bt, gsm data, camera, sound all work and phone don't restarts like it was sometime on kitkat.

I don't understand. In the left side of the touch doesn't work. I try with a rom named darksideblur etc i think it is 2.3, but it's the same. When i using a recovery touch the left side work, that's the reason beacause i think that may be it is a kernel trouble.
I should try with a 2.3 stock rom.
And you should try with a miui rom jaja

well flashing that firmware i get this error message h ttps://mega.nz/#!0Qp10AwR!IcPEfoZYsMIJdrHVpq3lrUz-AYKXZ6eadDLBz4l7EJs . And i could see that the problem actualy is the screen (hardware) because in the recovery touch the left side doesn't work, i was wrong... at the end is a hardware trouble. Thank you very much again, i really really appreciate your help.

Interesting, the same problem occurred at my screen too, and precisely in this section (like it is on your screen) screen not work,
when I move a finger across that part of the screen, cursor skips that part.
Have you solved the problem, and how?

YuanDao N101II
Hello Oma, first of all thanks for your work. I flashed ROM for my Yuandao N101 II tab based ono your work I got from VonDroid - unfortunately the touch screen didn't work. It worked neither with your rom nor with the newes original firmware. As this was described by some other folks there - for some specific sub-model maybe - and as the touchscreen works with an older stock-rom - this seems to be software-related.
Is there any possibility to overcome this issue? The firmware that is working gives me infrequent hangs for no reason and was described as buggy by other users, too.
Thanks a lot in advance for your help

Hi Sir Oma good day
im using your CM10.1 for rk30
i have only one bug the brightness i already reflash the boot.img on your page
and flashed the brightness fix via CWM
but the thing is it doesnt work my tab has full brightness and my battery is
too fast to drain can you make a fix for me?
im using oplus 9.76 from philippines
if you need my kernel here it is
Again the unresponsive touch screen
Hi @ all, as specified in my last post there is a difficulty with the touchscreen with a version of omars great fw that has been ported to VonDroid with minour changes. So, to find out if my tablet's touchscreen can work with this fw, I dug a bit deeper and located the touch screen driver.
input: Goodix Capacitive TouchScreen as
/devices/virtual/input/input3
<<-GTP-INFO->> GTP Driver Version:V1.0<2012/05/01>
<<-GTP-INFO->> GTP chip version:GT81XNI_3R19_000
The only documentation I could find so far is that documentation for this device is lousy and chaotic as is supply with drivers... seems to be quite a fair description. Until now, I found no way to locate additional hints about what touch screen might be built in my tab. Neither online nor on the tablet itself.
Anyhow, some questions came to my mind on and on again, as the last fw supporting the touchscreen is a tiny little bit buggy:
Might there be a chance that the specified touch screen works with the fw? If no: Is there a possibility to configure the fw in a way that it will work?
It would be very nice to find out more on that as I don't want to simply do the same procedure as I did last time: spending about two days to install the same old buggy fw in the end. This is definitely not satisfying.
Thanks a lot for any hint - I tested the fw with mouse and keyboard, but that's no way for working long time if you know you've got a touchpad. Nonetheless, it was long enough to get quite surprised what my tablet is capable to do - and willing to do some work for having these capabilities
Meanwhile, I'll dig deeper
[edit] Guess I found some metal - hope, it's silver at least...
github.com/Ceastel/CeXstel-kernel-msm8x25/blob/master/drivers/input/touchscreen/gt968.c
Goodix driver Version 1.0 .
Is there a possibility to add that to the rom? Woud be great...[/edit]
[edit2] maybe it's rather one of these drivers - at least the build date is the same my machine specifies.

USB Host Modem
Hello
I'm using OmniRom 4.4.4. v1.3 on my rk3066 PiPo Max M1. It works flawlesly, but there is one thing that bothers me. With stock 4.2.2 chinese rom I've been using usb modem(HUAWEI) to connect to the internet, which I've been connecting to HOST port.
After flashing OmniRom, the usb modem does not work. It does show up in USB Host Controller app, the storage in stick, works too, but it won't find mobile network. It gives me an error when searching for network.
Is there some setting that I should set or anything else to get it to work?

Before flashing anything do a backup from your stock firmware. You can google about how.
Usually changing the kernel.img for the stock of your tablet and flashing the ROM it might work (sometimes wifi, etc. Not). Also is important to know if your kernel is 3.0.8+ or 3.0.36+.
Cheers
I have a problem
Hi Oma! I have an Manta MID702 , but when i install your cm 10.1 on it, it boots, but i cant use the tablet cause there is a message: android.com.phone process has stopped. It reappears every time i close it. What can i do? Thanks in advice
To sum it up once more: I've got a touch screen that works with the original firmware but won't respond on the other roms. Problem: The original firmware is lagging and quite frequently simply coming to a halt.

help in MTK 6582 kitkat programing

Hello guys.
I bought a Chinese phone it suppose to be ( Lenovo A8) but when i got the phone i found it where totally different on the Lenovo A8. and it come with android 4.2.2 so i tried to upgrade the phone to 4.4.2. and i found a ROM for CUBOT s208 run on my phone with some problems.
* Camera Not working, even there was no icon for camera.
* No wakeup and air gesture in this ROM but i was have them in my Original ROM.
* Notification light keep working all the time.
MY PHONE SPECS are( 1.3 cpu MTK 6582, 5 inch screen qHD, 8 gb ROM).
is there any programming way to make the phone working 100%.
Or can i get the Camera source code/driver from my Original ROM.
Regards and thanks.
Dose any body have the answer ?

Camera is not working because you are using ROM designed for some other device. I dont know what type of ROM you flashed, but you can find out about porting Cynagenmod ROM to your device at Cynagenmod's website :
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro
BTW Jumping from one Android version to another just by flashing the ROM is risky business. If the preloader gets overwritten with mismatched type, you can hard-brick the phone.

No Mi device except the MI Note Pro gets Lollipop MIUI atm. Our Mi Pad will be upgraded to Lollipop when MIUI 7 gets released (although there's no ETA for it yet).
For better experience with Mi Pad I suggest that you replace MIUI with CM11. It will completely change your experience.
Hi Kage, congrats for your new Mi Pad.
Regarding your query, Mi Pad will get 5.0 sooner with MIUI 7.
For the transparent notification bar, you need to update your MIUI rom to developer or china rom. Since you are on stable rom, your notification area is of grey color.
Hope I helped you.

my mipad is acting strange lately.
can't seem to turn on the wifi. right now it is showing stuck on with
'Turning Wi-Fi on...'
what i have done so far :
1.restart/reboot multiple times
2.fastboot flash using latest stable global miui.(originally i bought this from china, so the original stock rom was indeed a chinese version.)
i still hope its not a hardware issue coz that would be totally suck big time.
anyone know how to fix this. please, i really need help here guys.

Boot to recovery.
Work down the list:
Wipe cache
Wipe data
Wipe/ reset.
Reboot after each one and check.
It should resolve it.

Mi Pad has been updated to a stripped down "MIUI 7" that is based off of 4.4 Kit Kat. Sadly.
Miui 7 is fine even if based on kit kat, had mine 15 months rock solid performance a great investment

hows the performance on the latest stable MIUI 7 rom for this tablet?

How to fix weird touch issues while playing pubg?

Hello guys!
I flashed the latest miui global Beta 9.5.17 and it has completly broken pubg for me because of causing weird ghost touch issues.
The most weird issue is that while playing pubg, if I so much as HOVER MY THUMB over the screen, the joystick section starts responding and moving my character randomly. Huh? I mean how the hell can it respond without me even physically touching the screen? I have no idea WTH is going on here.
And btw rotating the screen and thereby flipping pubg controls temporarily fixes this issue until it starts happening again so basically for it work I have to keep rotating my phone throughout the game. (sighhh)
I had none of these issues earlier when I was on stable miui rom.
So anyways, having lost my hopes on official ROMs, someone here (who might have been on the same boat) help me guide what custom rom and/or kernel should I flash to get rid of these pubg related bugs?
Please note that the touch is fine everywhere else and only starts ****ting on pubg. But again it could just be bad on all the other app/games that make heavy use of multiple touch for longer period of times such as pubg etc but I can't confirm for now.
Thanks for your time.
PS: my screen panel is NVT-ts and I bought brand new phone only a week ago and it's global version.
Try this using different touch firmware better than the one included in 5-9 beta
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-glqdCVAUUC_GEA07_ZQLmBlXZjUqp-w/view?usp=drivesdk
Only for NVT-ts Panels
try to rollback to 9.4.26 it's touch is good bur you should do it now before the new update rolled out because you can only rolled one step and you will miss out this version
it is completely originated from the rum. once google 8.1 versions of the error, users have encountered such a situation. 8.1 I installed the RR-OS ROM on my Mi 5S PLUS phone. and to fix it I had to upload the file published by google with magisk.
I wanted to share the subject. If you are experiencing a welded screen error with mi 5s plus or 8.1 rom I can help. Good luck with

Hi freind,
I don't know what do you mean by the latest update beacuse I'm currently on the most latest beta update that miui is offering right now. Earlier I was on stable rom and had exactly the same issue on that one too
Fixed touch issue
So just posting this to let everyone know that I finally got all my touch issues fixed simply by ditching the crappy miui rom and flashing pixel experience CEF rom on my device.
Not only did it fix my touch issue both in and out of game but actually made my device hell lot smoother & so much more fun to use!
So if you are having any issue please do yourself a favor and flash the said rom already!
Thanks everyone in this thread for their time and comments.

Miuimi 12 sucks....

Hi guys,
this is my first experience report about my new Poco X3 NFC with Miumi 12 after 14 days in use....
To explain: 2 years ago i got my first xiaomi redmi note 6 pro global. This machine is a fine thing, but i never liked the miui surface. So i decided to unlock and root the phone and use a custom rom. This was the very best decision for me.
So far, so good... At least i bougth my new Poco X3 NFC and i got 14 days ago. I heard a lot of "good" things about the new Miui 12, so that was one reason for me to catch this deal....
After nearby 14 days using this phone with this original surface Miui 12 i can say: it sucks, nothing else but the original apps are running smooth. It is nearly impossible to run an alternative launcher, really nothing runs flawless on this terrible, awful surface! The simplest things like "notification badges" etc. are not present, they still are not in function...
Ok, Miui "spend" a launcher: Poco Launcher. Hmm, nearby, but (for me) lightyears away from any kind of personalization. Change icons? Runs partially... Want to unlink the fu..... ring- and notification sounds? Misrepresented!!! This (for me) confusing settings menu? There is no better thing than a clean android system or custom rom!
The next annoying crap is the annoying advertising - i spend a "little" time to "destroy" this really sucking "feature".....
Oh, before i forgot: i tried to run the launchair launcher, ruthless launcher, nova launcher, microsoft launcher and at least hyperion launcher. With all this launchers it is on my phone totally impossible to run all features - on every other phone with custom rom or original they run like hell!
The one and only way to operate this phone "fine and smoothly" is this: leave it in its original condition! But who wants this? Personalization? Inadequate....
But yes, there are two things they are fine: the energy options and the camera app. But thats it for me.
So, this is my experience after 14 days and the next thing i will do is unlock the bootloader, install a recovery systen (maybe twrp or orange fox) and root the phone with magisk. With this solution i hope to improve some things - i 'll keep testing this
Best wishes and greets
I'm using Nova Launcher on all devices since a couple of years. Mui has the habit of preventing background tasks and autostart(never saw this before) for all apps except Xiaomi and Google ones and probably a few other. Autostart, notifications and widgets i only need for a handful of apps(including the launcher), and none of these worked out of the box.
But all relevant options are bundled in the app's context menu, no scrolling thru huge lists including all the system apps. Simply allow autostart, disable powersaving and give the app more or less all access rights. Running pretty well now. It's only the most bloated phone i ever had, but also the most powerful, so thats not an issue at present.
Hi lecorbusier,
thanks for your answer.
With your sentence >It's only the most bloated phone i ever had, but also the most powerful< your totally right
Yesterday i unlocked my X3, flashed TWRP - and wow: System destroyed....
Turned to fastboot, flashed OrangeFox, puh, it 's not broken....
Flashed Magisk also and today i will see what happen....
​
Lmao, who told you that MIUI is a good thing. It's ok, but compared to custom ROM it sucks.
If you want to try custom ROM, ArrowOS is the best optimized custom ROM + Void custom kernel If you want maximum fluidity/smoothness as it's optimized for minimum latency and jank. Battery life is still good in my usage, maybe 2 hours less maximum, but it's worth it. With stock kernel, SOT is a bit better.
ArrowOS gets improvements every day on ROM side with fixes & improvements + occasionally improvements & fixes to the device side.
I tried 5 other custom ROMs (crDroid, Resurrection Remix, LineageOS 17.1, CorvusOS, NitrogenOS) and that's my experience.
Everything works except fast charging information with Xiaomi charger (all custom ROMs have this issue) & Miracast (which I'm not sure if it works or not since I never used it).
So all in all, just flash custom ROM in this one too!
Devil's advocate here ( ), Xiaomi.eu with updated firmware and Stormbreaker kernel feels smooth as butter here -- but it takes some intensive tweaking.
Hi there, good morning from Germany
A short "update"....
After "repairing" (see 3 posts above) I've done the following:
Installed Lsposed (Magisk), installed CustoMIUIzer and started "playing" with the mass of settings in it....
What should I say: I'm pretty impressed.
Almost everything is going as hoped and does what it should! Till now I got no numbers on my notification badges, but this is a part I can live with.
That doesn't mean that i have changed my opinion about the MIUI-Surface, especially the terribly nested settings.... But with a bit of work you can establish a relatively well-running system that you can personalize according to your wishes.
So for the moment I'm pretty happy, but I'm still testing...
Ah, before i forget to mention: magisk and safetynet was another problem. I have found a module that works (for me), look here
So, thats it for today, many greetings and happy easter
Hello everyone,
here 's another short update for miui....
The good news first: it runs, Ruthless Launcher is working, original camera app is fine, other things: see my post above...
That 's it!
Unlock by (or with) bluetooth??? Fail! It seems that Xiaomi only supports its own devices - what a crap.... I clearly miss this function.
I stick to my opinion: miui sucks....
The only point that keeps me from installing a custom rom is the camera app (at least for the moment)...
My conclusion: to use all possibilities of this device you "must" use a custom rom, otherwise you have to live with the restrictions

My main reason to keep Xiaomi.eu, too. When LOS becomes official, I'll brace myself for intensive testing of camera alternatives...
for me, personally, i dont like miui as well. luckily we have a bunch of custom roms out there and even i found a better rom for my daily use, i still try flashing some rom to experience some other features. tho, at the end of the day, i end up using my rom that i am using daily. if you want the rom with alot of customization, have a good BB, and have miui camera, i suggest to use Ancient OS
Hi all together
@dahrel22: thanks for your tip, it seems like this is what i was looking for...
I think I'll test it out, I can't do more than break it
Have a nice Sunday, many greetings from here...

yes bro you better try it. im currently using the old build which is the miui verdor based. the new build comes with oss vendor but i think im not ready to flash it. i having trouble keeping my phone decrypted from oss vendor based roms. so i'll still be using the old build.
After the updates my Poco x3 NFC restarts in stand-by mode or when I'm using whatsapp, suddenly the screen goes to black..and then back to the homescreen... :/
Does anybody tried a custom rom? I would like to give a try.
Hello to everybody,
here 's my newest experience with "Miui-machine"...
I tried the tip from dahrel22 (see 4 posts above) und flashed Ancient OS 5.3 - I did everything according to the description, but in the end I had an encrypted partition on my phone....
Yesterday I had the great idea to cleam my device up und flash it again...
What can i say: it was a horrible trip
Like before I 've done everything as described - but it ends with a lot of issues like "no root" and "no system" directory, unable to mount system partion and so on and so on... This action cost me a lot of annoyance
(I tried this with two custom roms: Ancient OS 5.4 and Evolution X).
I was then able to revive the device using fastboot and the mi flashtool.
The Mi-Flashtool also ended with an error, but the system works - for whatever reason???
So at the moment I'm "driving" this damn Miui again and I'm really pissed off!
Maybe someone from you has a "smooth" idea to solve my problem??
Many greetings and thanks

im feel so sorry when i read your experience. maybe some confusion because 2 builds at the same version have different vendor based. both of them are comes with 5.3 but one comes with miui, one comes with oss. as i say i really have a hard time to keep my phone decrypted on oss when im using orange fox (now im in twrp but still no planning of flashing oss) if you flashed the old build, i mean the miui vendor based build, i think the outcome will be better.
what version of miui are you into right now?
edit: you know i feel bad for you as you need to do this "mi-flashtool" kind of stuff. next time, if you make mistake flashing something, i suggest just to flash miui rom again (miui eu will do) using recovery (i suggest twrp). i did that before many times and it never fails me.
