I got the Atrix 4g in Sept, It was a toss up between that or an Iphone 4. My 3GS was dying and I was due for an update. I went with the Atrix.
It was a great phone, until it was run over at a construction site. I had insurance and the next day I got a replacement, a refurb. The phone would shut down, or lock up I'm not sure what it was. I would have the phone in my shirt pocket and after a while I would feel it warming up, a lot. I would hit the "on" button and nothing. I would wait and nothing happened. It finally got to the point the only way the phone would start was take the battery out and put it back in. With an Otterbox this was getting to be an issue. This is my third replacement and it's doing the same thing.
I downloaded the new Gingerbread update yesterday and now the Atrix in USB mode (connected to my PC) upon power off will start right back up. This does not happen with my car charger where its charging but in off mode.
My phone beeped twice then vibrated twice then shut off like as if the battery died well did this while it was plugged in the charger and then it wouldn't turn back on not even the charge screen, well I did what most would do first pull the battery and put it back in. Tried a different charger, then tried with charger plugged in and battery pulled, nothing Worked.
Then I pulled the sd card and the sim card then plugged it in without the battery installed so no battery, no sd card, no sim card booted to a screen showing battery missing. Put the battery back in and it still showed the battery missing so I unplugged the charge cord pulled the battery again installed the sd card and sim card put the battery back in plugged the charge cord back in... now recognizes battery and is charging. Will see if it keeps a charge after it gets a full charge.
My S6 says it is overheated and it will no longer charge or turn on, plugged in or not. This started after using the video camera, but I don't think that is the cause. It seems that the temperature sensor is reading temperature incorrectly.
Fell asleep with my phone on the top left corner of my bed with it charging. I guess it slide down into the covers because when I woke up, it was underneath the covers and very hot (hard to touch). I put it on my dresser for about 5 minutes then in the fridge for about 5 more. It's not hot anymore and won't turn on, plugged in or otherwise. Am I screwed or is there a way to fix my phone
My BB began to feel overheated, turn it off and now it does not turn on, I remove then battery because it felt hot. I changed it by a new one. began to flash.Few seconds later. once again began to feel overheated and shut it down itself.
id like to buy one of those over 3000mah batteries for my atrix 2 , but where i live i can only find this batteries for the atrix 4g and im not sure if it works on the atrix 2.
Using Google maps for navigation with satellite view on my Verizon g4 while charging caused my phone to get the overheat warning and the screen turned super dim. I couldn't see the screen enough to use it for navigation. Battery temperatures reached 125°F.
I've been using the otterbox for the Nokia Lumia 1020 for a while now and just recently the phone just "died." I'v tried the restore (volume down + power) and charged it. I think the phone overheated and died in the otterbox.
My Motorola Atrix or Computer has a Problem install the ADB Interface so there for my phone wont connect to my Computer.I have a windows 7 32-bit operating system.I have tried installing Drivers Manualy, tried using the PDAnet Solution, tried unistalling all USB Ports, tried applications to help.
Will the Lapdock (and other accessories for that matter) work for the new Atrix 2 coming? I've only used the Lapdock lightly and it will be a real shame if it and the other accessories I've purchased over the past year won't work with the 2nd gen Atrix.
I recently had to get a replacement Atrix through AT&T after my original one shattered. I had insurance and AT&T provided me a refurbished one through their insurance program. My question is, will I still be able to get all future updates on this phone or is there something I need to do?
My flipside as i was loading a webpage just went black(while plugged into computer for charging). i hit the power button and nothing happended. So tried plugging into wall outlet and the green light will flicker a few times but will not charge. If i pull the plug out just a slight bit i can keep the green light but phone still does not charge. I have had previous problems of phone randomly discharging with 30 percent battery left. glitch? but the fact that the phone will not even power to charging screen indicates somethign must be wrong. I tried a friends charger of the same phone without any luck. Battery has not indicated any signs of wearing out. It would last as long as the first day i bought the thing. Anyone else had similar problems?
I am using the 200MB per month T-Mobile plan. I have used the Motorola DEFY for about four months now and haven't had a problem with it randomly using massive amounts of data at once. My bill recycles every 27th of the month, and a couple days ago, my phone used up 100 MB of data in one day. According to the phone usage app, the phone was continously using data during the hours I was asleep (even though the WiFi is ON). This has never happened before, and I am almost at my 200 MB limit because the phone keeps using data. At this rate I will hit 200MB probably this week, waaay before the 27th and I don't want to be charged for the extra data that I didn't even use. I tried going to Settings --> Data Manager --> Data --> and Background Data and Data Roaming were UNCHECKED. But whenever I go to #932#, my data usage keeps creeping up and up.
I find that sometimes when I go to wake my phone, it is totally off and will not wake at all. Also, it sometimes still has the LED flashing but attempts to wake it by pressing the menu button or on/off switch don't work at all and the only resolution is to do a battery pull.Anyone else having these issues?I am also very disappinted with the speaker volume. I had an original Motorola Droid and that speaker was loud and powerful. This speaker is pitiful. There's no use using it as an alarm clock. The vibrate doesn't work half the time either.
I did the Jelly Bean update on my two month old Atrix HD yesterday. Then my apps started closing on their own and then the homescreen started doing the same thing. Tried to do a FDR and I have the little android guy on my screen now with what looks like a rotating atom in his belly and a blue progress bar below him. Been like this for several hours now and I even tried calling the Motorola people and I'm still where I was. Can anyone offer a solution before I take it back to where I bought it from to see if they will even replace it? I did the holding down the volume buttons simultaneously and then the power button, got the motorola logo and then goes right back to this annoying little android guy with the rotating atom in his belly.
Other android devices have the ability to synch with picassa to view their online albums am I missing something or is this a big whoops not included on Moto's part.
In testing the use of a USB thumbdrive on the Razr Maxx HD I discovered that it causes my phone to simply shut down instantly. The light on the thumbdrive lights up momentarily prior to the sudden crash. If left in while booting the thumbdrive apepars to be fine until the OS attempts to mount it at which point it again instantly crashes.
This was tested using an OTG micro-USB to full USB adapter and a thumbdrive using FAT and then again with FAT32.
While running 7.2 software. Interesting new bug this week. When running, I decided to pick up the pace. Hooray for me, I set a personal best since last resetting the Motoactv. The coach comes on and tells me "New personal best... [and the time]." Then 15 seconds later, the coach comes on against, and tells me "New personal best... [and the time -2 seconds]." It did this about 10 more times, every 15 seconds. By the end, you would think I was setting world records it thought I was going so fast. I had to figure out how to turn off the coaching mid-workout, which was fairly difficult while running.
I am running a half-marathon tomorrow. I would have liked to use the coaching feature, but will not try it again for a while. Hopefully a hard reset and the new 7.3 software cured that bug since there was no bug fix list with the new release.
My Photon Froze when the battery was almost out, then turned itself off. Now will not turn on, only get the opening screen where it says dual core technology. Ive tried everything, taking out the battery, charging the phone, turning it on without the battery. A few times it has said boot failed in the top corner.
I recently purchased a XFE and have been having multiple issues with apps and the browser randomly shutting down. There doesn't seem to be any reason for this. The battery is not low, I'm not doing the same thing each time, I don't have multiple tabs open (although I have heard this tablet is wonderful at multi tasking). Also at random times I will have an app open and it will pop up with a message about force closing. This has happened way to often for me to continue to tolerate this.
Did I get a bad tablet perhaps? I want to keep this tablet? The rep was at best buy when I was looking at these and convinced me it was the lastest and greatest, however other tablets do not seem to have this issue .
