I have a problem where my haptic feedback stops working. This includes vibrations. It'll happen randomly. When this happens if I drop my phone onto a table (say from about an inch up) the vibration and haptic feedback work again. sounds like a hardware issue to me, anybody else having a similar problem? I haven't searched since I'm on my phone and not on a computer. can anybody point me to a fix?

Weird, this has actually happened to me twice in the last three days too. Never happened before. Haven't done anything recently (haven't unlocked my bootloader yet even lol). I found that a simple screen lock and then wake will fix. It seems mine happened when too many vibrate type things happened at once and sort of killed it I guess.
mine will still not work even with screen toggling.
i assumed it was the activation of a vibration command before the previous vibrate command had finished, but i turned off the keyboard haptic feedback and its still occasionally shutting off even when i havent pressed any button yet. I am sorely annoyed at the moment..
Have the same problem notice it after flashing 1.8.3

If its a present problem in 1.8.3 and 2.3.4,
then I'm assuming its the small motor inside thats starting to malfunction... Sadness.
Can anybody on 1.2.6 or 1.5.7 verify if they have the same problem?
bump. we must solve this heinous problem.
I've noticed this since I bought this phone in Feb. So its been present on all versions for me.

This drives me crazy as I use haptic feedback on my keyboard as I type. I hope some of the experts here can fix this (if it's software related).

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF.
TT_TT I guess I'll just turn off all vibrations.. :<
In my post on this thread's first page I said it had happened just a couple times. Since then I've noticed that it happens probably 3+ times a day lol. I too fear that it's a hardware malfunction, which is VERRRRY unfortunate. I'm sure any of us could send in our phone to get a repair, but that is a huge fatty hassle.... I wish I was in that 30 day period still, I have a ton of problems with my phone (problems that I'm unsure an SBF flash can fix). But I'm not about to dish out mula for a phone off contract
mm if we applied pudding we're no good for a warranty replacement...
I thought it was 1.8.3 or something wrong with my current install, so i did a full wipe and applied pudding as well. Now I realize its probably hardware. I do have insurance though..
Will it blend? XD

Haha crap you're right, I totally forgot about that. Now I'm gonna have to randomly tap the back of my phone all the time xD
Perhaps once the OTA comes out that allows the unlock, perhaps we'd be okay to send it in? Claim we unlocked with what came in the update...I dunno if that'd work. Maybe I'll just buy a new Atrix elsewhere lol. Or an SGS II I've gone through too much with this phone already though!
I feel like if i traded it in for another phone I'd regret it later on (due to the advanced hardware) Once custom roms can get rid of the webtop reserve ram and get rid of motocrap, this thing will be a monster.
I want to play with the infuse (simply because texting on it is so easy) but I feel that I'd regret it later on.
Oh.. what to do. Trade in for a Desire Z and call it a day..

Yeah I love this phone, I'm just upset about some minor hardward malfunctions that aren't fixable with just ROMs and such. I considered trying to swap for an Inspire in some way, since it's been OC'd to 1.8 or something...even without dual core, that's fast! But I dunno. I suppose I could somehow swap for another Atrix of some kind.
sometimes my touch screen doesn't work and I need to lock the phone and unlock then works again.
is this software or hardware problem? If it is hardware, why I lock+unlock it works again?
but I have tried different ROMS, all have this problem.

This is a known issue with the ota. It's been went over 100 times in the forum. I had the issue as well, until I went with CM7.
sent from muh googlabox
im on cm7 and mine stopped working 25 minutes ago
Bah, this happened to me aswell, it's a hardware problem with the digitizer. Download the app touch test and check for dead spots with it.
i have this problem too im on cm7 and i saved my pds back when i unlocked my bootloader and reflashing it does nothing. it will sometimes have no response when the screen is locked, it wont wake up the red led is lit, but just very dim battery pull is the only way to recover any ideas.
It's covered by the factory warranty, my phone is gonna be in the mail by friday I hope

I'm running into this same issue and I'm curious to know if it was a hassle from Motorola to get a replacement sent out.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Just make an account with MOTOROLA and go to GET HELP tab-->SERVICE MY PRODUCT--> and follow accordingly..
It should be covered under warranty
Mine is hopefully in the mail by Monday... YAY!!!
happened to me too. sent back to ATT was a bit nervous because I unlocked the bootloader, but lo and behold no issues (like always)
it got progressively worse, touch test showed the center wasn't responding, then more and more and more until I couldn't touch a thing (I had since switched to a backup)
got my replacement, all is well.
I did notice that this seemed to have happened after I started spending considerable amount of time playing the game "R-Type" obviously the app didn't do it, but it has touch controls that require you to keep your finger pressed on the center of the screen for a prolonged time, just food for thought.
This thread has made me happy
I'm going to contact the guy who sold me my Atrix on the marketplace and see if he will help me return it to Moto.
have the same problem, its very annoying. try going on to stock rom for about a week then switch back to what ever rom you want and then see what happens.
Any idea why all the sudden the galaxy note will randomly shut off completly and I have to use the power button to power it back on, sometimes it will sit there and viberate and I have to pull the battery. Its running stock ics. And YES ITS THE att note. I'm sending this with my international note

Try a reset or reflash the rom your using. Ice hasn't been released yet officially for the note so you must be on one of the leaks. Try reflashing

How about if you leave the charger plugged in? Hopefully you can get the opportunity to get it restored to stock and have it exchanged under warranty.
Edit: stuck power button maybe?

It does it with charger too. But ONLY really does it while moving it
I CANT get it to even turn on now, It will viberate and show samsung and then shut off
I can get it into download mode for a sec and it will flash and turn off
The power button got mashed a little too hard.
If its store bought, its a warranty issue.
If its Craigslist or ebay you have to pull the whole thing apart and reseat the silver button in the case correctly and reassemble.
I've come across a few phones that have this defect.

Jank4AU,
PM'd you, sir.
Happened to me when the phone was new all the time, including before I'd rooted it. Gradually happened less and less. Now I can't remember the last time it happened. A few weeks? Over a month? In any case, don't worry about it too much. Mine was the black kernel crash screen though. I think I've only had the yellow screen once.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk HD
I'm pretty sure it happens on that rom because of a glitch in the WiFi part of the kernel. When I was running it I just set the WiFi band to 2.4 only (instead of 5) which fixed it for me.

That happens because we are using the n4 aboot. Our hardware differs from the n4 where our up is the opposite key of their up, so it gives that bug.

if it means anything, i got that screen whilst using TheBase.73
and thanks for the explanation.
The demi-god yellow screen? I've gotten that months before using a JB rom.
I've seen it twice, and they happened when I was playing Ingress on my phone while either using WiFi or GPS. I was either rooted+stock or running The Base.
I can honestly say I've never seen this. I got a black screen kernel panic from UVing too far on The Base but that's about it.

Did you find a ROM or fix that works with Ingress on this phone?
I've had it freak out while trying to drop an item or select a xmp to fire.
I usually play on another phone, but I have to send it in for repairs so my Optimus G is my only phone for a week or so and I'd love full functionality in the game.

Hello all, this is my first technical question at xda. I usually don't have problems as i never dirty flash and generally use caution when doing things.
My i605 randomly shut off today and was unresponsive. After a few battery pulls i was able to boot it back up. The phone would not call or text, even though the signal bars showed normal. Right away i flashed a new ROM after 3 full wipes and the dalvik cache wiped. The phone activated on my number right away and showed normal signal, but won't call or text. I updated the modem to the latest 5/3, still no luck. Suspecting it was my SIM card, i tried it in another device and the SIM works fine. Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this or anything i should try before reverting to completely stock?
Thanks everyone!

I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary really. No case, and i never keep my phone with me if moisture is around. (rain, sweat, etc.) My phone was on when i was driving to work, when i arrived it was off and unresponsive for a few minutes. I've only experienced maybe 2 or 3 reboots since I've had the phone, pretty much since launch.
I hadn't updated the radio/modem ever though. I don't know if this had anything to do with it.

I'm glad that everything is working for you on the replacement. If I were you I wouldn't wait to unlock though. Sammy is pushing an update, at least thru the VZW computer app, that may block our current boot loader exploit and may make it un-unlockable.
