Motorola Atrix 4G :: LED Blinking Color Code States During Power Up

Oct 1, 2011

I've had two Atrix phones since March of this year. The first one was replaced for an issue unrelated to the topic of this post. Both of these devices demonstrated the following behavior:

Approximately every 15 to 25 power cycles, when the Motorola logo starts to animate the phone's LED will begin to blink in one of several colors. It stops blinking when the Motorola logo disappears. The blinking color is most often violet-purple. However, on at least three occasions I've seen it blink light blue and on one occasion it was blinking red.

The blinking LED at this stage of system initialization appears to be a color coded reporting mechanism to indicate a particular state of the phone (perhaps a failure code reporting feature). I'm guessing it's similar to the POST beep codes that a personal computer emits shortly after powered on to indicate such things as device failures, driver loading issues, or configuration problems.

I would like to know what these colors mean during this stage of the phone's booting process. That is, when I see the flashing LED during the Motorola logo animation, I want to know which part of the system is failing. There's no information on the web (including within this forum) that I've been able to locate on this and Motorola technical phone support personnel seem oblivious to the fact that this blinking color reporting even exists.

how to learn what these codes mean? As I've mentioned, both of my Atrix phones have demonstrated this behavior, so I presume all Atrix phones are equipped to demonstrate it as well under certain conditions. It's hard to imagine that Motorola engineers would have implemented a feature like this and then provided no information to anyone about what the color codes mean to make the feature useful.

Motorola Atrix 4G :: Why Won't LED Stop Blinking

Mar 1, 2012

I've been ALL over my phone trying to figure out why my LED light won't stop blinking. It only starts when my screen blacks out, and the phone locks. I've checked calendars/tasks/texts/email/facebook/updates...turned phone off, then back on.

Motorola Atrix 4G :: Calibrate Color Temperature?

May 10, 2011

My daughter (an iPhone 4 user) glanced at my Atrix while i was playing Angry Birds and asked why everything was so brown. She then compared her screen to mine and I was astounded at how poorly yellows are rendered on my phone! I then comparedit to my son's Samsung Captivate, with similar results. Color rendition on the Atrix is really off.Is there a way to make the color temperature cooler on the Atrix, or to completely recallibrate the display? Now that I've seen the difference, it's hard not to see problems in the display all the time. Any chance that a future update will fix the display driver to be more balanced?

Motorola Atrix 2 :: Notification Light Stopped Blinking

Jun 21, 2012

I made a mistake, well now it feels like a mistake, of installing light flow led controller on my Atrix 2 and it was a complete fail. So I uninstalled the app and now the LED notification light does not blink when it is in screen off mode. It blinks twice when you lock it, then the notifications stop. HELP! How do I reset the green notification flash?

I know there are apps that do this, ie Light Flow being one of them that allow you to change the LED notification color for specific apps, like red for gmail etc.Those apps drain battery from waking and such and was wondering if Motorola could incorpate that feature into the Atrix 2.

Motorola Atrix 4G :: Factory Reset - Icons Are No Longer In Color?

Dec 24, 2011

I performed a factory reset today to remove MySpace from my phone (I was unable to remove it any other way) and now I am having an issue with my phone.A number of my notification icons are now showing in gray instead of in color. The two that stand out the most are email notifications from POP emails (the red stamp) and from Gmail. Each of these now shows as a gray icon. This is minor, but annoying that my phone is behaving differently than it should. I am running 2.3.4 and have tried multiple resets (full resets removing all data and media)

Motorola Atrix 4G :: Modem Did Not Power Up (2)?

Jun 4, 2011

My Atrix 4G will not boot up when powered on. After a flight today I powered on the phone and the Motorola logo appeared but did not go into its usual animation during the boot process. Instead the logo remained still and about 65 seconds after powering on, two messages appeared at the top of the screen above the logo:"Modem did not power up (2)" and "Starting RSD protocol support." It froze in this state and the power button had no effect. I removed and reinstalled the battery three times. the last time waiting several hours before reinstalling, but the problem remains. There is no physical damage to the phone and it was working perfectly about an hour earlier when I first shut it off.

Motorola Atrix 4G :: Blank Screen / No Power?

May 2, 2012

went to plug my Atrix in last night, it had been sitting on the dresser. Worked fine when I set it there 4 hours earlier. Battery was maybe half charged, hadn't been used much that day. When I got back to it there was nothing; blank screen, no LEDS, and wouldn't come on. Plugged in and RED LED lit up. Left like this for a while and when I came back the camera light was on, but when I unplugged it went off. Still no power. Read that maybe not original Motorola charger. Got original and GREEN LED came on. GREEN LED also comes on when plugged to PC. When it is unplugged there is nothing.

Motorola Atrix HD :: Unlock Code For MB886?

Feb 5, 2013

I purchased this MB886 from AT&T but never activated it with them. I went with Consumer Cellular since they do not have a contract requirement. My Sim card from Consumer Cellular worked with the phone but no other carrier Sim card will since it is locked. AT&T does not have the code to unlock this phone since I did not activate it with them. Motorola still has the code and they will not give it to me.

Motorola Atrix 4G :: New Bluetooth Intermediate Power Conservation Mode

Jul 15, 2011

In this intermediate energy conservation mode for the PHONE not for accessories. The Bluetooth radio would be left powered DOWN in this mode and would only be powered up when needed/on-demand. For PLACING a call, it would require the call be ORIGINATED from the PHONE, as opposed to from the earpiece, or handsfree (the bluetooth headset/ handsfree/ accessories would be left on). As for receiving a call, it would HAVE to be answered through the phone.When in the intermediate bluetooth power conservancy mode, the phone would powerup the bluetooth, and do a quick search for a preferred-paired bluetooth device immediately preceding connecting the call. I do not mind the fact that when in this Bluetooth power conservancy mode one would have to interact with the phone to answer a call, since most of the time i want to SEE who's calling anyway i do not use caller ID text to speech/announcement anyway as i do not like it from a privacy standpoint

Please allow me to set bluetooth connection priority preference.Would be cool if simply re-ordering the list of paired BECKY TRIPP devices, would create a connection preference order.create a means to individually set each PAIRED bluetooth device with a trust level Meaning, if i pair my Atrix with my home computer, and i send a file from my home computer to my Atrix via Bluetooth, i'd like to be able to have set a per-device preference that would allow me to tell the Atrix to unquestioningly, and with user prompting, (there can be a Notice of the incoming file) accepth the file and download it to the default Bluetooth directory (or to my downloads directory).it would also be cool to be able to set system-wide defaults for where various downloaded media are stored based on the media type e.g. music files go to audio/music directory, videos go to vid directoty, documents go to Documents dir etc etc..

Motorola Atrix HD :: Battery Life Losing Power Faster After Update?

Oct 25, 2012

I finally broke down and installed the Atrix HD update yesterday. What a mistake. Prior to installing the update, I could drive from home to work and have the battery drop from 100% to 95% in about 20 minutes or so (which, is terrible as well). Today after installing the update my battery went from 100% to 87% in the same 20 minutes. I can't believe that an update that was presented good for battery life actually makes it worse! I can say however, that the performance of the phone is better (touch responses, less laggy, etc, but I am sure that is at the cost of battery life). Other than a hard reset is there anyway to get this update off of the the phone?
