DOes anyone know how to turn off the annoying WiFi reminder? I get tired of it asking me if I want to use WiFi whenever it detects ANY WiFi network! If I wanted to use WiFi, I'd turn it on and connect to it manually.

Uncheck the second box in wifi settings.

Nevermind, I found it. Go to Settings/WiFi Settings and uncheck the ""Notify Me" check box. The desription says "When launching apps, notify me when a Wi-Fi is available".
It will still not work if you have WiFi enabled and some network is detected.

First off, I'm having problems with Wifi connections. My atrix seems to only be able to connect to Wifi the first time I connect to a network. Everything works fine but if I turn off Wifi or leave range I have to forget the network and reenter the info to connect again. Any ideas?
Another question, not sure if it has been answered already, but is there any way to remove the atrix signature when sending emails? Thanks in advance.

For the wifi problem, make sure that you have the setting to never sleep; I think by default it comes with sleep when the screen turns off.
For the signature issue, go into the gmail app, hit the menu button, go into settings, and I'm sure there is an option in there to change the settings.
Attempted to turn mobile data on the other day, nothing happened. Checked APN deleted and reinstated APN, tried toggling data from menu, toggled aeroplane mode, toggled 2g/3g and still no mobiledata.
I then tried the mobiledata widget again and wifi symbol appeared in status bar, not mobile data...
Rebooted phone and worked fine again after.
Didn't know a widget could alter its behaviour and still not sure how I lost data connectivity in the first place, ah well it works now

wow
exact same thing just happened to me
I had to re-download my internet settings, everything's alright now but I noticed that when I went to turn off the phone when this happened the silent and airplane modes was gone
Interesting to hear it wasn't a one off. Easily sorted but lets hope its not a symptom of something more serious

You dont have to reboot.
Press the wireless widget icon to turn off your wireless then press the mobile data widget to turn on mobile data. If the wireless icon still appears with mobile data on and wireless off, turn off mobile data and turn on wireless on then turn it off, then try turning on the mobile data again it should work

Thank you Izzy, I should have clarified that I was able to get the wifi icon to go away but was still unable to get mobile data until I rebooted, by use of widget or otherwise.

I've got the same.
My wifi was off but the icon stayed on the notification bar !
I have to reboot the phone to get right !
When I turn on wifi, it connects, disconnects, connects, disconnects, and finally connects. How do I fix it to just connect!!!!

This might be a common problem as mine does this too. Mainly when I am trying to connect to corporate enterprise WiFi.
go to settings, wireless & networks, wi-fi settings and select the network you are trying to connect to, you should be prompted for your security code. This is not the wifi security code, it is the one set under settings, security. I have no issues with connecting to my home network, but at work I have to go through the above process.
I have same issue but mine won't connect at all it was working fine and then just stopped when I go under WiFi settings n Advanced settings it says ip address unkown. I didn't recieve the update yet and am not rooted. You think update will fix this or is my device shot and need to be exchanged

Is this just a common issue with the phone? I use wifi all the time when home and might be a reason to return it.

Mine did this until I updated the software. Go to settings about phone HTC updates check now.
If u are like me and haven't gotten the update yet I downloaded a app called wifistatic from market manually put WiFi settings in and forced connect and BOOM no issues works better then ever

Whenever I'm on WiFi I also have the 4g on display. Is this normal? I'm on stock.
No, it's not. When WiFi is on, you should be getting your data exclusively via WiFi so data over cell signal is stopped and the 4g symbol disappears. Are you sure you are connected to a WiFi network?

Yes I am 100% sure.
Same happens to me at times. I just turn data on then off and it goes away.

Hey this happens to me too!
Very annoying!
Also what's up with the phone switching back my preffered net work every time I reboot? I tik off "cdma only", but after reboot the phone puts it back to gsm/cdma...Grrrr
But yeah sometimes I have to turn off the data ( "connect to internet via phone") or it will intermittently switch between data and wifi

to whoever has that issue, do you use a data counter? just to verify where your data is going through
Happens on all my Androids. Not sure where my data is going through when they are both up in the Status bar. I don't ever hit my cap, so I am fine with it, but it is annoying.

Well, this is my second android phone and I haven't come across this issue before.
I would suggest that you check that your software is up to date. If it is, then power off the phone and pull out the battery, wait a minute then reinstall and power up. If that doesn't fix it, then I would factory reset it, but that's always a pain. If none of my suggestions fix it, then I'm at a loss.

This is because of "My Account" app by tmobile. It runs in the background and uses mobile network for connection to tmo servers (even if you have wifi turned on). Whenever you see mobile network turned on, just goto running applications and stop My Account and 4g/3g icon should go away. Its not just this phone, this would happen on any android device with my account app.
My WiFi connection drops randomly, sometimes in 1 minute, sometimes 5-10 minutes. WiFi working fine on my laptop. I have not rooted my device yet. Any solution for this?
You can try to go to the advanced option in the wifi settings and look for "Avoiding weak connection" or something like that and uncheck it.
but i think
You can try to go to the advanced option in the wifi settings
and choose '2.4GHZ only' in 'wifi frequency band'
i have the same problem i think and i solved it by this .
