Is there a way to tell if you dropped a call? I drop one a week but idk if its my friend with his new headset or what. Is there a way to tell? Before lately I don't think I've had a dropped call in 2 mo since I had my cappy. Last few weeks I've been running ultimate rom v 5 something. Before cognition 2.6 and above. All help is appreciated. And how often do you guys drop calls? And this is inside my house. Lots of windows. Oh and one more thing. I have noticed texts coming a minuet before or during the few drops if I remember right. But I have also texted myself and had some1 text spam me on the phone and nothing happened.
Thx

Unfortunately, I can't help with a method to see what calls have been dropped.
I have been experiencing dropped calls since upgrading to the official ATT 2.2 build. In the last week I've had almost all of my 'long' calls drop on me. Looking at my call log, it appears that anytime I have a call that lasts >20 minutes it gets dropped.
Lots of dropped calls here too after 2.2 (Cognition 4 & 4.1). Rarely had A problem before.

Yes. I am running the stock ATT 2.2 rom. Loaded it the day it came out. Since then, I have had several (8 - 10) dropped calls. Before that, none. I am fairly sure it is my phone because it can occur reguardless of who I am talking to or what time of day. Length of the conversation doesnt seem to matter either.
I am experiencing this as well. Frequent dropped calls recently.
Thanks guys. This helps, my gf just got a captivate, 11XX build with 2.2 pre-installed. So I'm going to root it and either put in a new modem or a new ROM all together because she likes it but doesnt due to "lack of signal" and "dropped calls" so sounds to me like the KB1 modem isnt all that good....
Another question here, JW in keis can you go from 2.2 stock to 2.1 stock? or does it not let you downgrade ? ( I know you can with oden, Just wondering if there is a AT&T supported way of downgrading...?)

What ROM and kernel are you running with that modem??
thanks!
if it's happened after a flash, you may be running an incompatible modem.
Me and my girlfriend, both on our stock froyoed Captivates, constantly have calls dropped by our phones since the upgrade. We have both done a factory reset and rooted after the upgrade. Any help or explanation is appreciated.
Also, her random shutdowns unfortunately continue...

So I've been an atrix 2 user for a few months now and its a great phone...Its rooted and I just updated it with the latest ota update and kept the root and all of that good stuff. But one problem that I have been having with my phone for the past month or so is that my phone will heat up like CRAZY! Then restart and then it wont let me use it. The power button doesnt let me turn the phone on...nothing. The only way I can wake my screen is by putting the power chord in and that just lights it up it doesnt let me use the phone. It shows that everything is functioning in the background I still receive messages and my apps update ect. but I cant use me phone. It goes through this cycle for about an hour then completely kills my my battery after it runs its course. I have no idea whats wrong with my phone. Can anyone help or have any suggestions? Anything would be appreciated!
Sounds to me that you need a new phone. Is it through att? You may need to do a warranty exchange.

Yes it is from AT&T I had to do the same thing with my original Atrix, but I traded up for the atrix 2
That doesn't sound good... the OG Atrix had a couple problems with that but I've never experienced it on the A2. You should try for a warranty exchange... look at the noob thread and flash the fxz, apply the OTA update and then take it to AT&T.
Yeah I think thats what I'm going to end up doing...this especially happens when I'm listening to music on my phone it loves to freak out on me. I'm just starting to have my doubts about Motorola because my original Atrix gave me problems and I so desperately hoped that it would be fixed in this version. Is it just bad luck I got 2 phones from motorola that both freak out on me? or is it me?
I'd say bad luck.
I've had 4 A2's and, while none of them were perfect, none of them had overheating problems.

My A2 is my first Motorola. I have an htc and two samsung phones and my A2 is by far more stable than any of my previous phones. I would say you have just gotten two bad phones. Do what you want to but i would stick with Motorola. Just giving my two cents.

Try cpu master pro and change governor to ondemand.
It works on my a2.
The major problem for me now is sometimes signal dissapear.

Interesting if the problem is the governor...
Also for a free way to change the governor use ROM Toolbox (free) and go to CPU Sliders.

I really appreciate all the feedback from everyone, what I did so far is that I flashed the stock FXZ file back to my phone then updated and seems to be working like a charm buy I still think its too soon to say how its really doing. Instead of second guessing myself I think Im going to get a fresh A2 today hopefully and I won't have any problems like this again! Thanks to all the help from everyone!

I would also take a good a good look at the apps you use, some apps leave themselves running and take some good resources, and can cause your phone to overheat because of this. take a look at the resources in use from settings --> applications, go to the running apps tab, do this when the phone is hot and see what apps are taking a good bit of resources. Just a thought, as I have had this issue before, not on the exact phone I am on now, since I found the offending app and did not reinstall it the last time I got a replacement of this phone.
I wish I could check it when my phone gets hot, but when it gets to that point my phone boots me out. Not letting me touch it at all :/

Apparently the systempanel app (paid version in the market) can identify which apps were running when your phone rebooted, won't tell you whats causing it but may get you close. I dunno how to use th app very well though but I heard good things.

I've started having this problem today as well. Two days ago I noticed a very quick drop in battery level to almost nothing after going below 50%. Same thing yesterday and today. Today was the first day that I noticed the severe overheating.
I'm using the SCv5.1 ROM. I've been using it for about a month without trouble, but any chance that's the cause? I'd love to not need to return the phone to ATT.
The only time I experienced these symptoms was after restoring an AtrixBlaze ROM.
Flashed back to stock w/root, then OTA. Restored a backup of RebelROM. No problems since. Was very concerned for a day that it had some how damaged the phone.
I've been through Iphone, Palm Pre and HTC, this phone beats them all except for WebOS which was the software on the Pre. That was an amazing OS with a lot of potential.

Using Jimbridgman's advice above, I looked at some of my apps. I had been using Green Power Premium (paid) and it just updated a few days ago. I disabled it and have not had an issue since, but I have yet to go through an entire power cycle.
I bought my Atrix 2 in India yesterday. Everything works like charm except the earpiece. The voice I get from the other party is so shrill that I need to keep my phone away from my ear to understand what they are saying . There are 4 settings in all to change the voice quality of the earpiece but it seems they are of no use. On the last setting, I can even hear my own voice from the earpiece. Also, when I tap my phone around the 3.5mm jack area, I hear a sound that makes me feel that something is loose inside. Is it a known issue or a bug or its just me who’s facing this? What’s the way out? Thanks in advance.
Hey all,
I came from the Lumia (yeah, what a nightmare that was) to the HTC One X. It was definitely great to come back to Android. But, I've had the phone for 2 days now and already noticed two problems.
When I was at work yesterday, I noticed the 4g icon at the top looked like it was only sending data, but would never receive it. After about 30-45 seconds it would come back, but during that time, I couldn't do anything on the phone that required the use of data. I tried a factory reset, and it seemed to work just fine. Then on the way home from work, it did the same thing again.
Also, when my wife and I were watching TV last night I got a phone call and could barely hear the phone ring. I checked the volume and it's all the way up on all three sliders in the settings. I tried changing ringtones, and that didn't help.
So, I'm on my 5th phone now with AT&T since April 21st. 4 Lumia's and now this One X and they've all had issues. I'm really at my boiling point now.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I know one of my options is just to take the phone back to the store and swap it for a replacement, but I'm wondering if anyone else is seeing these two issues with their One X? I've Googled it, and there are quite a few threads about each issue, but here on XDA I don't see too many. I trust this forum more than any other.
I really wanted to love this phone too!

Not sure on data, but try volume+ in the play store...it's the go to app for volume issues.

I also noticed this low volume problem! I hate it when I'm trying to listen to music!!

The radio drops are a known problem for some, but have gotten much better with later radios. For volume, yeah check volume+

I had that exact problem with internet connection too but 1.85 fixed it.
The sound issue is weird though.

What's odd is that all day yesterday it seemed fine. It seems time was just the key here. We'll see how this goes.
You can make your own ringtone with any MP3 and any software for sound editing (like SounForge). You can cut some part of the song and make it louder (I advice you to make a preset for equalizer with 120-140% louder and no 60Hz frequency)
P.S. Sorry for my bad English.
I have been having the same issues with the volume with my one x. I emailed HTC about the problem then it auto corrected itself. It all started after this at&t 1.85 update. I haven't factory reset yet, which is what HTC recommended, I hope that enough people complain so HTC actually does something about it. I love the phone though.

4th phone. You one picky SOB?
But I agree, on my Evo lte speaker not as loud as my OG Evo. That said, my OG Evo went thru 3 blown speakers in 2yrs.
Enjoy the phone you have, not the one you invented.

Hello,
Something's wrong with my Nexus S. I have used this phone occasionally as I use my Galaxy S2 mostly but ever since the JB update, I've been using the Nexus S. I don't remember dropping the phone in the last week and today, out of the blue, the phone stopped vibrating. No vibration AT ALL. Not even when you turn the phone on/off. I tried wiping caches and reflashing the stock OTA that I'm using but to no avail.
I really don't want to pry this phone open as I don't want to pop its cherry but as a last resort I guess I'll have to UNLESS someone here has a fix or a better idea
By the way, I'm out of city and am stuck with a phone that won't vibrate
Looking forward to some good solutions.
Thank you and regards.
So it's not under warranty anymore?
Noop, I've had it for more than a year and a half now but it's been hardly used for 6 months in total as I kept switching in between to my Galaxy S2
I've tried tapping the phone in the right places, pulling the battery out, turning vibration on/off a hundred times, everything. Nothing seems to be working
Update: I tried using 2 other motors from different dead Samsung phones and none of them worked. Is the phone sensitive to the specific part that the motor is on the Nexus S? Any insight into this would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.
Hi there I got my fone Thursday updated to jelly bean and I've had no vibration either I've got it all ticked on vibration but still nufink I've factory reset my fone twice aswel I'm on stock ota update

anymore updates there whisky? my phone had the same problem half year back. One day it fell off my bed then the vibration came back.
And now, it stops working AGAIN as i was texting!
I guess it wouldn't be a software issue, how'd it go with yours?
So I went to Verizon in December and got an account for my Mum and Dad got them both S3`s (They had U.S.Cellular) But lately its been horrible.
Well anyway Got them 2 brand new phones. My Dad`s S3 today still works Perfectly Fine! But my Mum`s is having bad luck.
1st phone which was new - Got VERY hot with no use even after reset and would get so hot it would turn off. Called Verizon
2nd phone Referb - Signal Issues from Day 1 constantly going in and out
3rd phone Referb - Text Messages would NOT go out, Incoming everything worked! But Placing a Call or sending a Text would NOT work at all.
4th phone Referb - Just got it today So far so good but so far so good with the others. What should I do if this one starts experiencing it?
Anyone had this bad of luck?
My first phone started doing what her 3rd one was doing after 2 weeks of having it, then my second died after the first time I charged it. So far the 3rd has held up for 6 and a half months.
If you still continue to experience issues you can always ask Verizon for a different phone explaining that you've actually had it with this phone replacing it and such.
