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.

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.
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.
Is there a way to have the phone shut itself down at a set tihme every night? I can't find anything other than the battery saver night mode.

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.

Then when using the widget to turn Airplane Mode off I see my Wifi turn back on, but the Airplane Mode isn't removed. The only way I can find to actually take the phone out of Airplane mode is to hold the power button and toggle it from the silent/airplane/power popup.

Tower is not down, have had this issue at home as well but not as severe.. I have the new updated Android software and this is a refurbished phone.

View 4 Replies View RelatedWhen I put my Atrix at the USB mass storage mode with connecting to a PC via USB cable, the App icons on the home screens disappeared immediately if the App was stored at the internal build-in storage (Not SD card). They will not be back on the home screens automatically after exited from USB mass storage mode. I have to put them back by myself.

Sometimes my phone will last all nite without being charged while other nights it will be completely drained. Once drained I have no way to determine what was consuming the battery since all data is lost. Also its a pain not being able to make a call etc till I charge.
Ive always had my wifi on that way when i enter a saved network or att hotspot it switches to wifi and i save on data useage. Well, sometime after the gingerbread update my wifi stopped working correctly. It would be on and show the wifi symbol but when two saved network locations, it would "connect" to the network but no data was being sent or recieved. I even tried it on an att hotspot and no luck. The wifi turns on fine and says it is connected but it hasno signal as indicated by the grayed out wifi signal bar. Now i read something that said to put the phone in airplane mode and thenturn wifi on and it should work fine, well i did that and it works as long as i stay in airplane mode. I dont see this as a fix but instead as only more evidence to an apparent problem. What good is wifi on a phone if i can only use it when the phone can no longer work as a phone.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI love my Atrix HD but one key feature that is missing is the ability to enable and disable LTE mode. By that I do not mean just turning on and off data services. Many other Android phones have the ability to select the radio band that you wish to use. It gives the owner of the product the ability to move down to 3G or Edge service if he or she wishes. As it is now we are all forced into LTE mode.

View 1 Replies View RelatedToday may be the first time I attempted to transfer photos from my Atrix to the PC. I am running Windows 7 Pro-64bit. After connection via cable, I select USB Mass Storage for the USB connection. Windows throws up a box that asks "Do you want to scan and fix Removable Disk?" I select "continue without scanning. In Windows Explorer there appear to be far fewer folders on the card than when viewing in Astro, but I did not do an exhaustive check. Of immediate concern is that the Camera folder is not visible under DCIM, thus I can't retrieve my photos over the cable. Should I back up the card directly to the PC via microSD adapter then let Windows scan and fix next time over cable?
View 3 Replies View RelatedThe app works normally in portrait mode (showing artists or songs or whatever I choose) but when I flip it to landscape mode, it just shows the blank grey/blue screen that is the background on the music app home page (where you can choose now playing, library, internet radio, etc.) and it just sits there... doesn't load anything at all.
This is an exceptionally frustrating problem for me as I use my Atrix with an HD dock and the cardock (meaning I have to basically unmount my phone from the car dock to get a different artist. If I use the (useless) music launcher in the cardock home page, I can get to the now playing screen and pick the "smart DJ" button to get a new list of songs, but it'd be really nice if I could choose an artist I wanted to listen to (or a playlist, or a song for that matter) without having to take my phone out of the cardock, flip it to portrait mode, and then place it back in the cardock (quite dangerous while driving I might add)
I seem to have gotten my music player in a permanent shuffle mode. From the home screen, I select my library, then the artist (I use artist view), then the album, then the first song in the list. If I let it play to the end or hit the "next" button, a random song in the list plays instead of the next song. I'm probably missing something simple but I can't figure out how to get it back to playing titles in order.

No matter what I have tried, the phone insists on going into landscape mode when in the dock. I need to have the dock in portrait mode, as thats the only way it fits on my dash without obstructing anything.

View 6 Replies View RelatedIn 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..
I am currently having issues with my Atrix 4G since the start of the New Year (2012). I have had the phone since July with no problems, but not i hear and sense feedback, but it takes over a minute for the phone to reawaken from sleep mode (screen to turn on to the unlock screen).
Once it does, I see the cellular signal strength icon showing it was disconnected and trying to re-acquire the cell netwrok (not the wifi part, the AT&T part).
This long delay puts a real damper on how I can use the phone to make a quick call, or snap a random photo to capture a moment.
Once I'm in, however, it'll work fine for a while, and then if I am NOT using wifi, it may lock up the screen refresh (I get haptic and audio feedback on my taps until the buffer fills, but screen freezes and even turing the unit off does not shut the screen) and sometimes it'll be minutes before I see the cell signal thing do the same thing, or I just get tired of waiting and pull the battery.
if this is a settings thing or a hardware or OS issue. My phone is under warranty, but I don't want to swap it out without knowing if there's a fix. I hate to get a new phone and find out it's happening again.
My Atrix 2, v ICS had the screen locked into 'emergancy calls only' mode, and won't unlock. I did a hot boot, cold boot, reboot, called att tech support, no luck. Haven't done a factory or master reset, and don't want to if not needed. Will accept inbound calls, but can't open anything, and MotoCast can't find the phone, Motophone tools not for this phone OS.

I use the music player everyday, several times a day, I keep several gb's of music on it that I update daily so this is a constant issue. If i cant get this working i might have to start carrying around my iPad again .

View 10 Replies View RelatedI'm a dedicated BB users and have been using many models over the years, but this is the first annoying problem i encounters with the 9700.i bought 2 tMo 9700 last week for me and my wife. when i got home, i updated the os of my 9700 to .586
the problem started when the battery level reach 40%. whenever i'm in a call or the bb in keypad lock mode, it suddenly shut off itself. and then i can't turned it on unless i plugged in the charger. but after it turned on, i can unplugged the charger and the bb would be normal until the battery reach 0%.
i thought i was a battery problem with my 9700, so i tried using my wife battery, and it was still the same problem coming out. so then i thought it was an OS problem, so i upgrade it to .593, and it still gave me the same problem. then i tried downgrade it to .578, and it still the same.then my guess was it was a faulty 9700. but i tried the software upgrade to my wife's BB and then she had the same problem as i am.
what's wrong with our 9700's? can anyone help us? i have been looking all over the internet but found no solution.we have the same apps installed beside add ons: ubertwitter, opera mini, google sync, googlemaps,foyage, blackcorpo theme.
I just bought my phone this weekend. It had been fine, but for no reason this evening it started lighting up to display the time every single minute. Its been going on for hours. I've tried looking in settings etc. to see if I did anything to change this, but can't find a reason for it.I allow the phone to go into sleep mode. And then when the time changes to each next minute it flashes for a second or two then goes back to sleep. How do I stop it from doing this? This is new as of this evening. I use my phone as my alarm clock so it will be very annoying to try to sleep with this thing lighting up every minute.
