You need to hold the power button in until the devices shuts off. It will shut off.

[Problem has been solved with your help its fines and I have G apps on it now thanks B][/B]
I got an Atrix from a friend who was having problems with it.
I tried turning it on and it stays tuck in a boot loop with the "Dual Core Technology" screen.
I tried a couple of key combinations to see if I could get to fastboot but nothing works. So far I've tried the following combinations:
1. holding the volume up button while powering on
2. holding the volume down button while powering on
3. holding volume up + volume down while putting the battery in and then pressing the power button
4. holding volume up + volume down while putting the battery in and then letting go of volume down and pressing the power button
5. holding power and volume up button while putting the battery in
I also tried this. After holding down the volume up button and pressing the power button, i tried hitting the volume down button once and then hitting volume up, hitting it twice and then volume up, 3 times and volume up, etc. etc. and then plugging in the phone to the computer, just in case the fastboot menu was there but I couldn't see it, but that doesn't seem to work either.
As it stands right now, all I'm getting is the boot loop. The phone had been sitting around for a while so I'm not really sure what the history is so all I have to go off of is what I have in front of me.
I'd appreciate any help in the matter.
Can you tell more history of the phone?
Is it rooted?
Is the bootloader unlocked?
Which ROM is it running if it's running one?

I'm pretty sure its not rooted and almost certain its the stock rom but I have no idea about the bootloader. My friend is not very tech-savy so I'm guessing that the bootloader is locked.
I have no way to verify any of this. All I have at this point is the phone that sits looping at the "dual core technology" screen.
If you have any ideas about which way to proceed from here, I'd greatly appreciate it!
What exactly is happening (down to the last detail) when you boot while holding Vol(-)?

When I have the volume down button pressed while booting, the green led stays on for 4-5 seconds, then the phone boots to the dual core screen, it'll stay there for about 5-7 seconds, then go to the M logo with the ripples and then the screen goes black for a second and then it loops back to the dual core screen. Only, this time, there is no delay between the 'dual core technology' screen and the M logo with the ripples.
Try this:
1) Remove battery
2) Replace battery while holding volume down button
3) Navigate to recovery
Should get you out of the loop.

Maybe the easiest way to get make it work again would be to flash the original stock rom with RSDLite.
It's very easy, you just need to connect your phone via fastboot ( when powering on hold vol(-) key until it says fastboot), then press vol(+) and the computer will detect it.
Just remember to flash the correcto sbf for your phone, otherwise you will have another bootloop.

Where do I get the stock rom?
How about you do some searching on your own for a change?
This time search for fruitcakes. That's the stock ROM.
So today my phone started vibrating continuously--it was on the HTC boot screen with screen brightness at very very low and would not stop vibrating. I held down the power button, and after 20 seconds of holding it down, the phone finally stopped. However, not it will not boot back up. I hold the power button down for long periods of time and nothing happens. After letting go of the button, sometimes it does a single vibrate but the screen remains blank. Power button and vol-down does not boot into the bootloader either....Can anyone help me fix this? I have no backup phones I can use...
Just some info about my phone, I was running the newest 3.17 stock rooted ota with Arcreactor kernel. I was also S-OFF via moonshine.
I installed TWRP 3.0.2-1 on my Sprint Galaxy S6 Edge. I booted into recovery mode, and I'm on the normal TWRP screen with the 8 options. But it doesn't let me open any of them. After a few seconds, the lock shows up, and after a few seconds more the screen turns off. I can turn it back on with the power button but I can't use the TWRP's swipe to unlock. Holding the power button does nothing. Holding volume down, power, and home (download mode) will make the loadup screen start to show up, but then it'll stop there for a really long time, before eventually going back to TWRP recovery and repeating all over again. If I keep holding the combination, it'll just loop the loadup screen over and over again. What do I do?
EDIT: I actually can get into download mode if that helps at all, my home button is just really messed up and does not always click well.
After splash screen, screen blank but phone sinks with BT & capacitive lights active
Today I tried to update my phone to the newest firmware (I think it was .210, but I know it was from August 5th on firmware finder...I know its a long time to wait to update, but I started a new job, moved to a new city, etc. so things have been super crazy). Unfortunately, after flashing with EMUI Flasher, the phone rebooted and then got an update failure. I restarted the phone and waited but the screen was black. However, my smart band paired and if I press the power button, the capacitive button lights turn on, but the screen is blank/black. I have tried rebooting, both regularly holding power for 20 seconds as well as holding the power key with volume up and then volume down. I can reboot into a recovery of sorts and tried to wipe cache and restart, as well as boot into safe mode, but both result in the black screen from before. I can also boot into fastboot, but don't know what I could do to fix this.
Any advice as to how I can save my phone would be really appreciated. I'm really hoping I don't have to wipe the phone.
Please help me!
