Motorola Motoactv :: When Powered It On, The Screen Sort Of Turned On But Nothing Else?
Aug 26, 2012
I'm really really really frustrated, so I'm going to try to tone this one down.My Motoactv broke 2 months ago. I sent it in for warranty repair, and they replaced it.he replacement unit had a screen issue. When I powered it on, the screen sort of turned on (you could tell that the backlight was working), but nothing else. No Motorola logo...nothing...just blank backlit screen.I returned it again. They said they fixed (not replaced) it.I use it once. I charge it up and turn it on this morning. Same problem. Blank, backlit screen.When I plug it into my computer it detects it, syncs it, updates software...but the screen is still totally black, with the backlight lit up.

My Nexus 6 worked for months, but now when the phone is on the screen stays black.
When you start the Nexus 6, the Google logo shows up, the starting animation plays, then the Android text shows.. then the screen goes black. If I hold the power key the "Power Off" dialog opens, I can also take screenshots (of a completely black screen), otherwise nothing shows on the screen.
I took the phone into T-Mobile and they sent me a replacement. After walking through this new phone's setup (adding my Google account, setting up a lock screen) the phone screen went black! Just like the old phone.
Wiping the cache didn't fix anything, but if I factory reset the phone (on either phone), the screen works as it should and goes through the setup process before the screen blacks out again.
I tried not setting a lock screen and the phone still blacks out so I don't think it's lock screen related. I'm starting over again and trying to set the phone up without importing any of my Apps to see if that will change anything.
I've always done system updates when prompted and the phone is not rooted or have custom settings or anything like that.
I just wiped and started over without installing the list of old apps and it still does has this same issue..

when i was using the Motorola SF600 headphones (nothing the break the fall when i dropped the unit) and the screen cracked. Ok no problem, cracked screen still works i can live with it. Now today my screen is blanking in and out basically i cant see anything on the screen. This sucks, the SF600 headphones failed me twice i should have never even tried them.Let me note I still have my 32gb 1g ipod touch which has been smashed and dropped on cement so many times guess what screen never cracked, not once the thing still works for crying out loud! Sad thing is i might buy another unit but motorola really has some suspect issues. I am thankfull i bought this unit from amazon warehouse deals and was issued a credit due to an incompelte box so out of pocket was maybe $150. But jeezus Motorola lets make some stufff that can last and survive an accidental drop.

My droid A855 shows a lit up black screen when powered on. When it finishes powering on, its still black. The Motorola logo and the droid eye don't appear while its powering on either. Now I can raise the volume, receive messages and phone calls, I just can't see the images at all; its all black. The back, home, menu, and search buttons at the bottom of the screen still light up white and work as well as the keypad. I turned it off and on and took out the battery about 8 times. I never dropped it or got it wet. I've had it for two years already so I guess the warranty is up. It just randomly froze and went black while i was texting my friend.

I'm using a MA 1.6.13 N8. Brightness it at half and screen timeout is set to 30s. Workout screen timeout is off.
Just to make sure we're on the same page: the MA screen has three modes:
- Full on (color and bright) - probably eats up battery quick - out of the 30s configured, the screen remains on this mode for about 25s.
- Dimmed (B&W no backlight) - compromise on battery spend - the last 5s of the 30s are in this mode.
- Standby mode (screen off) - least battery comsumption - after the configured 30s timeout, you can't see anything.
So here is the question: Is this Dimmed screen mode available? I'd like to set this mode on always.

I just had this happen yesterday. I was getting on a flight and powered off my phone. I had about 40% when I powered down. When I got off the flight, my phone wouldn't power up, so I found an outlet and found that I had no power. I know I powered it off, and so why would it be out of juice when it had battery left when I powered down?

When I plug in my Xoom tablet for charging, the unit will blink the indicator light if it's powered down, or the "Charging (xx%)" and lightning bolt on the battery icon will blink when powered on. It also takes a longer time then normal to charge.

So I have noticed that my Xoom Family Edition has just powered itself off randomly a few times.I go back to the tablet to wake it up, but it is fully powered off. My battery is charged. This has happened about 3 or 4 times since owning it for 3 days.

I am appauled to say that after not having my blackberry for even a year yet, it has packed up. I have purchased this blackberry from Amazon last christmas and it has been out of use for 5 months now. I cannot even turn the device on now, it barely has the white screen anymore, it pops up for less than a minute, then the device turns itself off. I cannot even back up or restore anything via pc now, it will not turn on! EVEN if the battery is fully charged!

I want to change my screen name on the MotoActv website. How do I do this? When I go into settings, it doesn't allow for this, only things like height, weight, password, etc..

Is it possible to setup the motoactv such that the screen open when I tap on it?Otherwise, what do people do to open the screen when it is mounted on a bike mount?So far, I had to click the small button, but this is clearly not optimal when riding at 40km/h and you want to see that you are really at 40km/h :)

In non-workout mode, my MotoACTV screen unexpectedly goes dark after only a few seconds.
In workout mode the screen dims, a lot, after only a few seconds. For example: If I set the timeout for 30 minutes, it runs the full 30 minutes and goes dark. No problem so far, right?
But when I "wake up" the device by hitting the power button, the screen goes dark again (or dims in workout mode) in about two seconds and will not return to normal unless I go back into settings and reconfigure the timer.
I tried a factory reset, unchecking the workout screen timeout, no difference. Also, why is it that some uploaded workouts say "no raw data available"?

I have enjoyed my motoactv to a certain degree, despite portal failures, bugs, and the like, but my latest experience is very disappointing.Add me to the list of persons that has had the device fall and develop a hairline crack in the screen. Ok I've seen the other horror stories on the forum about support. My device works fine, but I don't want it to get wet now with the screen crack.
I opened a call, and since I am from Canada, I was given a repair location that is right in my home city. Perfect! However they refused to even look at the device, claiming they repair Motorola phones but not the motoactv. I provided the Motorola ticket number and explained that Motorola referred me to them. They couldn't care less and refused to accept the device. I regulary use a US address, and so opened up a new case; and shipped my device to the US. The *very* day within hours of receiving notification that I would have to pay to have the motoactv fixed, (This is not a problem for me.) I phoned in and requested that the repair be made, and provided payment by credit card.I have a Gran Fondo event in Mid July, and will *definitely* be using my Garmin. Looks like I have perhaps totally wasted my money on this device, although for now I can use it as an mp3 player when I go to the gym......

Is there another option that exists that would allow me to get my metrics read out on-demand (not looking for auto-intervals)?I hate tapping the screen for this. It doesn't seem to work unless I slap it about 4-5 times. I'd like to be able to just press a button sequence, double press a button, maybe press & hold the screen etc. to get metrics on demand.

Does anyone know if there is a way to see your heartrate on the time screen without recording a work out?
Assuming you have a HR strap paired with your MOTOACTV.

Has anyone noticed any screen seperation from the metal backing? My Motoactv is always in the watch band, and today I decided to take it out to wash the band. When i removed the device I noticed something very disturbing, the metal back on one corner has movement, i.e. The body seems to have come away from the screen ever so slightly. If I squeeze the device there is slight movement and a slight squeak noise?

Mine is exactly same problem as the one posted below I think it is definately a design fault. url...Im have problems with support for my motoactv I bought it in us bu live in UK, Australia and Jakarta.The support chaps are telling me that I need US address and are refusing to offer me any support.My device fell out of the armband about a metre on wood floor when i was at the gym and the screen cracked from the corner.This seems to be a common issue with the device.Is has been going on with support of 6 weeks and they keep sending emails saying it has been resolved, when it most certainly has not.

If marathon mode is set and screen timeout is set after you power down the unit and then power it up again it keep marathon mode set but looses the screen timeout selection. You have to go in and set screen timeout again before you start the run. I think this is a bug. I saw someone mention it in another posting. I wanted to bubble it to separate thread so a Moto eng could see it and hopefully fix it in the next firmware release.

On the Motoactv Software Upgrade 7.2 release notes it shows a "create workout" screen with options I am not seeing (such as warm-up and cooldown). If I add a new workout, these do not show up as options. Why? Has this update fixed the issue where the unit does not cycle through the stages automatically?

This morning on my run I noticed that no matter what I did the time of day showed in the top left hand corner. It showed on the workout screen, on the settings screen, you name it. It wouldn't go away. In the attached screenshot that is showing time as well as "Workout" all combined into one. Can this be fixed Motorola?

I understand that the ability to sort contacts on the Atrix by last name (or change their display to last name first) is not possible at this time. When can we expect this feature to be added?

Discovered something annoying today - the touch screen doesn't respond when it gets even slightly cold. It's 46F here today and during my short run, the screen stopped responding to touch. After coming indoors for just a minute or so, it's working fine.I couldn't stop my workout right away, though, so my measurements are off - that's the annoying bit. Has anyone had similar issues?

Kudos to the designer who made the Full Screen Battery Meter you get when you plug it in using the wall charger after it has shut down due to depleted battery. I don't know if this has always been there or if you also get it if you plug it in to your computer after a full discharge or when you plug it in to the wall charger after you power off (without depleting the battery fully). But it sure is a nice touch - a really smooth animated battery meter that fills the entire screen for the little over an hour that it takes to charge from 0% to 100%. Well done, Team MotoACTV

I have a stock non rooted or modded Atrix running up todate firmware. Recently I tried using Astro to try and find a file I had on my phone only to find my phone got stuck in some never ending loop on a folder called thumb2 in the osh directory. After it got to about 2 gigs in size I figured it wasn't going to stop and cancelled the search. I looked in the folder my self only to find it kept looping back onto its self. What is this folder? Did I get some sort of virus or malware on my phone? Would it ruin anything if I deleted the folder seeing how its just keeps looping on it self?
