Hi,
I have been using Atrix 2 for almost 4 months now and i was very happy with it. I also a got an OTA to ICS. But recently my dialer/phone is not working properly. Whenever i press the dial button for any contact it takes almost 5 to 10 mins to dial that number and during that time even the back button wont work in the dialer/phone. But all other apps seem to work fine. I am unable to make calls properly as it takes too long nearly 10 mins to dial that number. I tried restarting the phone and also uninstalled few apps which i thought might be cause. But nothing seems to fix the problem.
When i do a factory reset then it works fine for almost a day and the same problem repeats again. Details are given below,
Phone: Atrix 2
OS: Andriod 4.0.4
Root: Not Rooted.
Please help me fix this problem.

Might try booting into recovery and fixing permissions. Are you using any 3rd party dialing or contact apps?

No. I am not using any 3rd party dialer or contact apps.
Could you please let me know how to fix the permissions using recovery as mentioned ?

You're on a completely stock system right? Definitely weird, since you have no root and stock recovery, and factory reset doesn't fix it. Then I would suggest fxz a clean system. You can check the noob guide for more info about how to do it, and which fxz you need.

Flash it in CWM. There are some minor bugs though. I would suggest u manually write down the apns before flashing and add it back once done.
Hello guys,
I unlocked my phone using the following guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1233513
Unlocking was successful. I did a few calls to make sure everything was ok and proceeded to install a custom rom. I tried Jelly bam first. Everything installed right and booted the phone ok. At the setup page it asks me the language as usual, but when I click start the phone says to wait and then it crashes and reboots. I tried another JB rom and did the same thing. I does the same thing with simcard or without.
Any ideas? I am going to try an ICS rom.
This is my first HTC phone. I've always worked on Samsungs
Edit:
Ooops I think I forgot to upgrade firmware. Let's see if that fixes it.
Thanks in advance

Best way is re flash full stock firmware with Odin. Try a factory reset first, if not better then full flash.

Thank you
Ever since receiving initial marshmallow update someday in April, my phone refuses to update itself. 1) it will not check for updates no matter what I try. Pressing the "search for updates" button in the settings does absolutely nothing. It still shows last checked in april. 2) Smart Switch recognizes an update starts preparing it and when it gets the preparing to 100% it'll just disappear and show the main screen, but it wont take any user input anymore. left it like that for 4 hours, nothing happened. I closed and reopened Smart Switch, exactly the same result. Reinstalled Smart Switch, still no results. Can someone help me? I do not have the time to do a factory reset and set up everything again. Phone is not rooted or modified in any way, and never was. Is it possible to update it with odin without a full wipe? If so, can someone point me at some kind of instructions? Never had a Samsung before. Thanks in advance.

Install samsung phone info. Check which csc the phone is.
Find the firmware of the same csc in sammobile. Try to download using samsung firmware downloader, it's fast. Find the latest odin(i think 3.1x). Link the firmware in AP then flash it.

I have already downloaded the firmware, code is XEO. It's just that I don't know Odin well, and I don't want to accidentally wipe my data. Will it wipe the phone I just link the fw in AP, or will it be okay?

It won't wipe you data. However after flashing in case it stuck at bootanimation(samsung logo), you might need to do factory reset. In most cases no problem.

Dont use noble nougat ! Use ultimate nougat under the unified development . There are 3 different versions either one is okay. Everything works on ultimate nougat but noble lags a good bit.
Each one has a description on what it does and has. All are bebloated + custom tweaks. Check them out. Any touchwiz rom should work. As long as ported to sg g920f.
You have to be on nougat stock firmware. At least thats all ive tried. You can try on 5.1 as long as you follow my guide. Go to this site - https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s6/general/root-nougat-s6-verizon-t3710864 and download the files he has on his post. Thats how you root on nougat.
If you are on nougat, switch to bootloader mode, open odin, and click on ap and select the eng root. Then reboot and go to settings/security and tick unknown sources. Then extract the unroot file you downloaded and run the file that says root.bat and give your phone a few minutes. It will restart and supersu will be installed. If it doesnt work the first time try again
Now you need to download flashfire. And download the custom touchwiz rom you want. Again you can find them under unified developement. And gapps if you want. I use aroma installer to pick what apps i want to be system apps.
Once you are rooted have supersu and flashire, youll need to set you year on the date back to 2013 or flashfire wont open correctly. It does that on my phone atleast you can try it out. When u have flashire open click on the + at the bottom right and click flash zip or ota. Click on the ron youve downloaded and then select the box next to mount system read and write . Then press the + button again and add a wipe action. Just leave it on what it automatically tics. Make sure you hold down on the wipe action before hitting the flash button at the bottom and put it above the rom installation. So youre phone restores first. Do not tick internal storage on the wipe action you will brick your phone bc no sd card.
Flashfire should take you through an aroma installer for the rom depending on the one youve downloaded. Make sure to pick g920f kernel.
Go through chek what you want and then install. As long as you hit the mount system read and write button on the wipe action back in flashfire it will install and not get stuck on %20 or %25. Once its done let it reboot your phone will come to a crash screen. A blue one with a warning sign saying software failure or something. You need to hold the power button volume down and homd button until it cuts off. The do the same thing to turn it on in download mode and flash the eng root file in ap again from odin and your phone will boot. It takes about 10 to 15 minutes to boot.
I installed xposed and all kinds of other tweaks to this rom as well. Let me know how it works out for you . Im going to upload photos in the replies.
Able to flash and open twrp but no function.
Just Google a touchwiz rom ported to galaxy s6 and follow my instructions. I've tried 2 others. Everything seems to be working other than if you are not rooted there is intense lagging from time to time.
I have some questions, is this on 5.1.1 rooted with mrmikes root? Is the rom pre-rooted? Is it debloated? And does it have s health?
this needs a more in-depth description, when i tried it, i flashed it on 5.1.1, i got to the setup of the rom, i chose the international s6, i didnt know which one to choose, then the CSC variant, i chose one of them which had a description like "multi us, it started installing, it got to 25%, then the screen just went black, i opened rootatboot, it succesfully worked, but my phone screen is still black, what are we supposed to do?

Sorry i updated my op check it out ^^
And if you have black screen then boot to odin mode and flash nougat. I know for sure it works on there. And if you follow my steps i suggest using ultimate nougat note fe rom. Its bloatware free and smooth as butter. Has aod edge screen and alot more tweaks.

For me the note fe rom downloads at 700kb/s why? roms usually download at like 7-8 mb/s
Not able to do it, When i flash stock nougat with odin, it gets stuck on the galaxy s6 logo after reboot. Then i factory reset and wiped cache partition, and its still stuck there. So i had no choice but to downgrade to 5.1 again. Now i flashed the pre rooted official nougat rom with flashfire, and once i was on nougat i was gonna flash the custom rom. But, when you try to flash something in flashfire on the pre rooted nougat rom it gives me an error saying an unknown error has occured. Now im back at rooted 5.1. Help anyone?

I'd reccommend video and flashfire, you can make a video of how to do it and make it easier by flashing it in flashfire, so a tutorial on how to flash it on flashfire correctly.
Followed the procedure but flashfire just remains blank on boot... why?

Did you check the box that said mount system read and write when clicking on the file to flash ? And did you add a wipe action before adding the rom ? And are u rooted with super su ?

yes... followed everything to the letter. Was having issues with the flashfire but i downloaded the pro apk and it acquired root permission without crashing... I used flashfire .57 pro to flash the pre rooted rom but the flashfire in the pre rooted rom also crashed after aquiring root so I uninstalled it and downloaded the .73 pro apk and that worked but it doesn't flash the rom no matter what options I choose. Tried so many combinations... I put the wipe before the flash and i also tried vice versa, tried with flash procedure set to normal, recovery, download and all still came out with the same outcome = Blank flashfire with 2015-2017 screen. So i just restart the device and everything is normal. Using the pre rooted rom for now

Okay do everythig you did again but before opening flashfire you need to turn off wifi. Go to settings and date and time. Turn off automatic date and time and set year to 2013 then re open and use flashfire. That was my original problem.
I've tried everything to get mobile data and service to work that is the only bug but makes this thread a complete bust until I can find a work around or fix for it.
