Reboots and no radio

Ok so my usb port broke off so I was using a razr well my daughter broke that by throwing it... so with no phone I grabbed my D4 I pulled the battery charged it to like 3% put the battery back in and powered it up... I made a Frankenstein cable that will charge it via the inductive charging pins... came back a few hours later to see it was charged... so there's the back story... now my issue it will not recognize the sim card says no service no sim card... so I switch back to stock (i was on avatar) same on stock no service no sim... but the stock reboots like every 2-20 mins never the same time frame... avatar it'll go all day with out a reboot... I get my new phone in 2 days but I go back to work tomorrow and need a phone... I have fr the stock ROM, put the sim in a different phone it does work... Put a different sim in mine it did not.... On avatar I Swapped sims, fr full wipe and reflash ROM fixed permissions... I am really at a lose here... I thank you kindly for any in put..

Loud Speaker Replacement???

I think my loud speaker on the back of my phone opposite the screen is blown.
Whenever I have someone on speakerphone they make a cracking sound.
This happens on several different ROMs so it isn't a software issue.
So If I buy a replacement is it as easy as just unscrewing the back case and prying out the blown speaker???
I see replacements online for cheap and when I open the phone it looks straight forward.
Any help appreciated.
Thx

It isn't quite that easy, but it isn't all that difficult. Go find one of the EB40 mod threads, and follow those instructions to get the back plastic bit off. I think the speaker can then be dropped in, but I'm not sure.

I have the same problem but I think it's the rom because when I am listening to my music it is OK
Try stock rom
Sent from my Atrix HD using xda premium

Exactly what he said. Pretty sure it's just the rom.
Sent from my PACMAN MATRIX HD MAXX

I am using the AOKP youngunn ROM and it does only do it on speakerphone calls and not when playing music. If this is the case then is there a fix?
Thx

I to think it is software prob. I replaced the speaker in mine and had no real change in audio quality. But while you are in there do the eb40 mod, you won't regret it.
Sent from my MB886 using xda app-developers app

Already did the battery mod and the last time I was in there I tried to pry it out gently but it wouldnt budge.
Now my problem is that the screws are starting to strip from opening it up so much.
Anyone know where I can get T5 screws for this that are the same size?
sent from my Atrix HD MAXX

Yeah I stripped two of mine out first time I opened it. Closed it back up and went to Sears and got a good t5 driver.

Need Buying Advice on The Atrix Hd

Hello all;
i am about to buy a phone for myself and the atrix and the htc one s are my two options if the moto 'x' is not affordable by me. i wanted to know if the phone is any good. if i ask the question on any other thread some guy who has never used the device will answer the question. comming form the htc thunderbolt and a life-time of misery i wanted to also know if there are any serious problems with the device.

The only drawback I've had is night time photos. But I don't generally use my phone as a camera so yeah fine lol.

so no dying suddenly or random call/wifi drops nothing of that sort ? i came form the htc tbolt and faced those problems and am quite cautious to buy htc again so this just seemed a better option.
as for photos i do not use my phone camera all that much for taking photos
one more thing does this have official cm support

We don't have a official cm yet but we're close. We have a good amount of rom choices though. And the battery stock isn't the greatest, not the worst either. But I did the razr maxx battery swap and now it lasts through my 17 hour day every day.

You have my attention now - how did you do a battery swap? I thought the battery wasn't removable?

Same way ya swap on an iPhone, unscrew the case apart and put the new one in.
The only problem with Moto Phones is the lack of updates to them, though that's usually the fault of the carriers, not Moto. That's where the scene comes to the rescue and provides us with more roms than we care to use.
Looking at the rumored specs, the X is nothing more than an updated RAZR\Atrix HD. Everything is the same, except no sd card (I really hope that isn't the case), a gig more ram, slightly better cameras, slightly faster cpu, much better gpu, same screen size, same resolution, same motherboard (msm8960). I also think we'll be running the X's 4.3 within a week or two, a month tops, of its release, they're that similar.
Whichever phone you get, you'll be happy.
Most of us here are gonna be getting an X by years end and will repurpose the Atrix as a glorified mp3 player, wireless nic adapter, portable streaming media center (VuDu, NetFlix, Hulu, Prime), etc.

is this correct? the device is now officially cm 10.2 supported

BL will be unlockable depending on where you buy it. Verizon and att can go screw themselves.

You can buy a razr maxx battery and with a little light surgery, you can install it into the atrix HD. YouTube has a couple of videos that'll show you how to do it.

Help!!! My phone was hacked!

OK so the weirdest thing happened just now. I was charging my atrix HD when I went on it to check a phone number. Then it started opening apps and going on xda then other apps. I had no control over it. I couldn't even turn it off. I had to do the power and volume down thing to shut off. It was very creepy. I was just looking for a minute while the person did what they did. It was like when a person from dell controls your computer if something isn't working right. At first I thought it was being laggy but no! It kept going settings were changed and the person tried playing music on it! I turned it off before he could but the wierdest part is that I had turned of my wifi and set my phone on airplane mode so it can charge faster. No communication what so ever. Right now its off and I plan to keep it that way until someone can tell me what to do to protect myself. Also this could have been happening before i went to go check my phone. Which was like 15 minutes before I checked it. Please help

android is very hard to hack probably a virus delete data in cwm

Best thing to do is just wipe.
Easy way to do it is to go to Settings->Privacy->Factory Reset
It was probably a bad app.

Another thing to be aware of is I've noticed Motorola's screens (at least on the Atrix models) are kind of finnicky. If there's a little bit of moisture around they just start registering touches on their own sometimes.

With my battery life being... less than ideal.. I find myself plugging into all kinds of chargers along my travels. Some non moto chargers make my phone go nuts, exactly like what was described - apps opening etc. Have experienced this several times. Feel the other explanations are possible of course but highly unlikely.

There was a story on the news recently that someone's iPhone was hacked by trying to charge at a public charging station. I would be weary of these charging stations.

Airport WiFi connections are VERY insecure. Basically they monitor everything that goes through. Text messages, calls, anything. Maybe they also have access to control phones?

I agree with above post non oem chargers can make the phone act funny especially the cheap dollar store chargers get an oem cable the you will know that it will work for charging and data.

Ps3 hardware help(kinda)

Seeing as most PS3 sites give me no response I figured I'd post here and see if the great xda community could help...
Well I bought a phat PS3 from a yard sale for 25 bucks, guys said it wouldn't take disks, i figure hell the disk drives out I have a spare why not. I take it home disassembled it and find the the guy broke the clamp for the ribbon cable to the mother board. So now where I'm at is how do I Gerry rig this cable into place, where it will hold a constant connection, any ideas?
O also I tried running a firmware update and am now stuck in a boot loop of update because it can't find the drive...FAIL ON MY BEHALF :banghead:

Yep it has twice, and has rlod before when playing uncharted 2. Since the case delete and addition of two fans (drilled holes on bottom below main ps3 fan and mounted a fan to push air to it) it has never overheated again

Damn right Lol, my ps3 that was thrown at the ground is pieced together. its an 80 gig phat, the housing is from a 60 gig, disk drive is a refurb off eBay, the power PCB(eject and power button and LEDs) was taken from a 60 gig Lol and everything else is original from the console, I find it amazing she threw it at the ground with a disk in it and the only thing that broke was the power PCB Lol the disk drive was borked because the original owner took it apart to get his game out and lost the laser doh
