[Q] Wifi not working after bell update, tried everything - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
Got my Atrix the other day, brought it home, running Froyo, no problems. Do the OTA GB update, installs fine. When I reboot, I get a message saying that the update didn't apply correctly. Everything was still working fine, so I ignored the message.
I unlocked my phone and installed romracers recovery, flashed CM9, and now my wifi doesn't work, and after about 30 seconds the phone reboots. Reflashed, same problem. Flashed CM7, same problem. Flashed a different radio for CM7, same problem. Went back to stock, same problem. Flashed my friends entire phone onto mine, same problem.
I've tried everything. Anyone have any ideas?
tl;dr Phone reboots like a mofo and my wifi doesn't work.

Try flash faux kernel or go back with fruitcake 2.3.4 zip.

Tried the faux kernel, and stock fruitcake/gobstopper. Nothing is working. Could it be a defective wireless card?
I've flashed CM7 and CM9, multiple GB ROMs, and nothing. This is driving me nuts.
Help guys?

on stock firmware turn on airplane mode, shutdown phone, pull battery turn on phone, turn off airplane mode. This will prevent wifi from turning on should prevent the reboots. however don't turn on wifi because it will reboot your phone. wifi FUBAR.
on cyanogenmod my wifi works for 2 minues, after drop you can re-enable it by
1. turn off wifi
2. turn on gps
3. turn on wifi
4. turn off gps
then the wifi will work for 2 minutes then drop again.

KIES?
I think you're in the wrong section of the forum, Motorola phones don't use the KIES

[Q] Wifi not working after 3588 update

Hey,,
So I received my G tab today and connected it to the internet and downloaded the update (Tap UI V.1.1-3588).
However, after the update got applied, when I try to turn on Wifi it says error. I tried to restart the device twice and on both times the wifi worked and actually connected to my network but then disconnected and went back into displaying the error in matter of seconds. I have searched the forums but it seems no one with stock Rom have had this problem.
Thanks in advance
I had issue with the stock fw, never ever after 3588 was ok, even when reinstalling
Try a new firmware. Maybe

I've got the same issue here. After restart I have Wifi for a couple minutes then it disconnects and errors until the next restart. This is my second G-tab and my first one works great.
P.S. Other ROMS didn't help my condition so you may want to pursue return before attempting Rom upgrade. I'm back to bone stock and still not joy.
It works now !
All what I did is close the wifi as soon as it starts, gave it a minute then turned it on.
Now I'm not sure if I should do this each time i boot it up, but, it works !
Try doing that, maybe it was by chance that it worked with me .

Wifi error?

So I flashed the newest nightly of Synergy mod and everything was working good for the night was running on wifi looking stuff up and downloading apps and everything. When i woke up the next morning I turned wifi off for work because I work outside all day and having that feature on would be pointless, I got off work and back home and when I tried to turn it back on it would "turning on wifi" for a bit and then just give me "error". I've installed other roms and even restored back to BAMF 4.9 and im still getting the "error" message when I try and turn on wifi. Im guessing its a hardware issue and might just take it to verizon. Any suggestions??
Exact same problem for me, I even downloaded the original 'upgrade' PG05IMG from the original root guide and flashed that via bootloader, and still wifi is 'error' I have no idea what to do.

Wifi broken.

Ok. My wifi is rebooting the HDX whenever I turn it on. Be it the stock rom or the Rom Slot 1 with the almost AOSP rom.
I was reading using an app in the AOSP rom. I turned the wifi off. And started reading. I turned the kindle off couple hours later.
Now wifi won't come on and is causing a reboot on either Stock or Rom Slot 1.
What's the procedure. I'm trying to be very careful as to what I do. I have clean backups of my stock rom as soon as I got it out the box and rom slot one as soon as I installed it. Just in case tha thelps.
Any assistance is welcomed.
6 Minutes later....
I went into stock rom and turn off airplane mode and it automatically connected to wifi.
I re enabled airplane mode just in case/ (Fear of update)
I went back into rom slot 1. And tried to turn on wifi it rebooted.
I went back into rom slot 1 and turn on and off airplane mode. and turned on and off bluetooth(mistake as it's right under wifi) then I turned on wifi. And it worked...:/ idk....
An another note...Since I don't have enough posts to post in the AOSP thread, Can anyone direct me to a working version of the Amazon App Store that installs on the AOSP rom with the amazon Services removed? Or is that not possible.
5 minutes later..
Sorry again. I just need to take my time...I loaded an old Amazon APK and it works nicely. Just in case anyone else needed help.

I ran into the wifi reboots myself.
the wireless status has to match between the stock rom and the rom slot or it causes reboots.
you pretty much have to get it enabled in the stock slot and then enable it in the rom slot.
sometimes this takes some bouncing back and forth and unexpected reboots.

Wifi

I'm having an issue with the wifi not turning on (it stays grey saying turning on but never does) all other radios work, just not wifi. I cant get it to run on any rom except for stock. I am s-off if that helps solve anything. I've tried flashing boot.omg, I've tried other kernels, I went back full stock newest update.. still no good. If the Rom is custom WiFi refuses to turn on.
