Whenever I hook up my atrix to my PC via USB, I don't get the USB sign in my notification Bar... Anyway to fix this?
Also because of this I can't use RSD lite to reflash back to original. When I have RSD Lite open and have my phone connect it just shows the Motorola Big RED M with starting RSD Protocol but nothing happens.
My Phone does not show up on RSD.

You probably don't have usb debugging checked in your settings. At least thats the first thing I would think for a problem like that or do you?
Fix it.. not the USB Debugging.
It was this POS universal micro usb cable I got from At&t.
I don't have the original charger/cable, I had to buy one from At&t.
I used a Blackberry USB cable and it worked no problem.

Hello guys, I recently bought an Atrix 4G from UK. The problem is that when I connect it with USB cable with PC (Windows 7 32bit) the PC recognize that the phone is connected but nothing appears on the notification bar on the phone. First tried with original FW 2.2.2 orange, after that rooted, unlocked the bootloader and installed CM7 but it is the same thing with it. I installed the latest USB drivers using motorola driver installing program from the official site, tried with other cable but nothing. RSD lite recognize it if this will help.. Does anyone know how to fix this issue.

Question for you.... do you have an micro sd card in the atrix? That could be an issue. Also, you can look at your computer's usb settings to see if your phone can be forced into usb mode that way. Just giving some ideas.
Yes, I have SD card, tried without it but the same thing - no notification on the phone and nothing happen on the PC except the sound of connecting a USB device. How can I force it in USB mode?

Try looking in settings of the computer for USB drives.
That's when I start exploring a bit in that area when stuff doesn't connect to my laptop.

Didn't find this function. Anyway the point is that the computer recognizes the phone but the phone does not show anything in the notification bar.
I just solved the problem :
1 - Turn off the phone.
2 - Turn on while holding volume up (RSD protocol mode)
3 - Connect the phone with USB cable to the PC, wait for windows to install the drivers, and disconnect.
4 - Restart the phone, and before connecting to the PC type in the dial box #5.
5 - Connect it with the USB cable.
I saw this advice from other forum.
I know it sounds stupid but this worked for me. Thanks anyway for the separated time.
Thank you
your advice saved my life
Lost usb connection with my laptop and home pc 3 days ago
Tried everithing you know what I mean
Most advices are for babies in kindergarten:
- bad usb cable
- wrong usb port
- usb debugging
- drivers
BS!
#5 really works / you need actually dial #5 with your phone app and then quick connect cable
I had the same problem ... I had to send it to motorola for warranty and they changed my mainboard!

try the usb ports in the back of the pc with the "original usb cable for the atrix
also if your rooted download a teathering app called pda.net install it on your phone and pc it will provide proper drivers for the atrix
at&t atrix's had to do this when we were on 2.2 and it sure does work!
Thanks!
Thank you for this! Dialing #5 made the trick!
I flashed my atrix using RSD lite and unlocked the boot loader. Once complete the phone rebooted and everything works fine except when i plug in the USB it flashes USB Connection in the notification bar and then quickly disappears. It will not connect to my PC. The PC detects it and then says device unplugged.
I have tried 3 computers 2 USB cables - wiped cache and reformatted.
It still charges and when in RSD or fastboot mode it works fine.
Thanks in advance for your advice
To me it sounds like you need some drivers.
If you're on windows 7 it will automatically install proper drivers. If not, you have to download the drivers for the device to work properly.

I have the proper drivers. I have plugged another atrix in to the same PC and connected with no issue. It is only this device. It connected fine before I unlocked the BL
this happened to me as well, are you able to charge normally? if you are not able to then it means that you have the exact same problem I had with a atrix, if you are under warranty I suggest you try cashing it in as there is mainboard damage, swapping the microUSB port will not help, I think there is a fuse on pin 2 or something that is blown
The phone charges fine. And the usb works in fastboot and rsd mode. When i plug usb into pc it charges just will not install
I do have same problem with my motorola atrix 4G. How did you get it resolved ?

Hi everyone.
So I have a Motorola Droid RAZR XT910 its on 4.0.4 OTA with no root.
The issue I have is that I connect the phone to my PC via USB cable and it does not pick it up.
A few things you must know is:
•I have windows 7 32-bit and
•I am using the cable that comes with my phone
What happens when I plug my phone is the computer says installing drivers for unknown device and then it claims to have successfully installing them for "unknown device". My phone does give me option to chose what type of connection I want but it does charge.
Things I have tried:
•A different cable
•A different PC
• Re-installing drivers
• Re-installing Motocast
•Trying with USB Debugging enabled and disabled
•Different USB ports
•Factory reset
•Different USB ports
•Tried installing PIM Sync form Google Play Store
So yeah that's my problem any help will be helpful...
Try the drivers here:
http://www.motorola.com/consumers/v...59431210VgnVCM1000008406b00aRCRD&pubid=987654
When you try another cable, make sure that works with another device, and not just for charging.
The below instructions will help you troubleshoot if there is a problem with the usb connector on your phone.
1.Power off and disconnect usb cable.
2.Press and hold vol up and down, then hold the power button.
3.You should come to a boot mode selection menu.
4.Press vol down twice to highlight AP fastboot, press vol up once to select.
5.You should see AP fastboot flash mode (s), with last 2 lines saying "Connect USB, Data Cable"
6.Connect your USB cable to your PC and phone, and see if it says USB connected.
7. If nothing happens then it's probably a hardware problem, get it repaired.

Hi thank you for your help.
So I did this method on my PC and it was unsuccessful but i tried it on my mothers and it worked!
So I will update the drivers on my mothers PC and see If I can successfully connect to her PC and use USB mass storage for the first time since I've had Ice Cream Sandwich!
I will keep you updated
Its definitely software. Ill have to wait till there's a rooting application that doesn't require a connection between a PC and phone. One rooted I can flash a ROM from there on...
On your mother's PC, it worked in AP fastboot right? As in the words "USB connected" appears on your phone.
From there you can flash a rom.

I can flash fastboot files which I dont want to do.. I want to flash custom ROMs which require root.
The ap fastboot worked for me but when i restarted the phone it still wont connect with mass storage. i do not own a motorola usb cable mine is an LG and i dont really have money to buy one. bought the phone on ebay and it did not ship with one so ive been using this. it only connects as charging.
Heres my issue, when I plug the usb cable in it doesnt connect to the PC. it tries to connect but then Windows say its disconnected. For kicks I went in to RSD and it connected and was able to flash back to stock, (I was on stock but just rooted). I am fully stock now and still have the same issue. Does anyone have any suggestions? I have tried multiple cables and 2 different PC's.
Thanks for any help!
Does the usb menu come up on the phone? Select storage device.
Reinstall the drivers from Moto.
Google usbdeview.exe un install all moto drivers reboot computer. Plug phone in let computer reload all the drivers.

Hi, thanks for the info I tried uninstalling and when I plug the phone in it pops up USB Connection then goes away and PC say Device unplugged, but phone will charge. Wondering if the port is bad.

i too have similar problem the rsd flash process fails in remuneration with windows prompting usb malfunctioned
i request to give a solution
My phone is on version S124. It is dead right now. Only red light shows when connected to charger and it turns of after some time.
This problem happened before also, I took it to Lenovo service center, they did something and my phone was back on. It is out of warranty, I had to pay for servicing. This has happened again, how can I fix it at my home?
I have SP flash tools, S124 ROM and Windows 7 PC.
Thanks.

Hi stympy!
I tried that exact thing at first. The problem is it does not recognize my phone on connecting via USB cable. Drivers were correctly installed as I could successfully flash firmware few days before. Now when I connect it to PC via USB cable, it does not show up in device manger, nor is it recognized by SP flash tool (stuck at Searching). Red LED turns on connecting to USB on PC/Power. I have tried all USB ports on my PC and also tried different USB cables.
I have also tried the "plug-in then reset via button on back" method. Not working.
Any idea what's going on?

Hi. Try this:
Uninstall curent drivers.
Reboot computer or laptop.
After reboot open device manager window
Look om ports area on device manager
Plug the phone now
Something with MTK69XX should appear.
If this appear you are on the good track.
If not tell me and we look for something else!

OK, tried this. When I plug in a device, like my printer, or my other android phone, Device manager window automatically refreshes device list. This does not happen when I plug-in my p780.
