Hey! My atrix started acting wired. From last few days wifi is not working. when i start the phone it works for 7-8 min than turn off and give wifi error. i did the clean installation too. i read some where that this problem can occur due to burning of wifi chip. but if its like that why it works for 7-8 mins after restart.
Does Bluetooth stop working also? If so your chip is burnt.

Yes! after 5 mins both things stop working. but its kinda stupid for mobile to burn its chip. Can i replace the chip ? because i don't have warranty left

If I recall correctly, I was on a factory rom. I'm having a different wifi/bluetooth issue right now, so I am waiting until I am less lazy to try and fix it with the same method.

Fixed it for me awhile back as well. Also seen the same issue happen on my old Huawei. On that phone only restoring a ROM with a wipe fixed it. It's as though the wifi driver gets corrupted somehow on these phones.

Bluetooth too. I was having some odd behavior, so I turned bluetooth off, and then I couldn't turn it back on from any option, switch or checkbox. A factory reset fixed it. Right now, I am getting some kind of interference between by bluetooth headset and wifi....when I have both working and I am on a phone call, periodically the wifi and bluetooth would both cut off, and drop signal, and then about 1-2 seconds later would reacquire both signals.
Like I said, when I am less lazy, I will do a factory reset and see if that helps. If not, then I'll try a different bluetooth headset....

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.

same thing happening to my Atrix. sometimes, even lock/unlock scenario is not working. I have to pull the battery. That's really annoying.
I tried the full wipe, it helped in some way, the frequency dropped but the problem is not completely gone.
Any idea to fix?
Is this issue happening to you guys on stock fw too?...

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.
Please help! my i9100 dunno why suddently unable to turn on wifi, click wifi button it just stuck there.
It has happend to me occasionally... its when i switch from one wifi to another...like from home to work or vice versa...while being on mobile network in between...
i have had to restart the phone.
maybe a bug in OS... dunno
I can confirm that the same happens to me. Atr first I thought it was just me because of my custom rom, but after reading the above I'm not so sure anymore...
Anyway my solution was to restart the phone, it went back to normal.
First rule of technology: if something doesn't work, turn off device and then turn back on again.

You can also try making a full backup, doing a full wipe, then re-flashing your rom or even try with a different rom to see if the problem persists. Could also be kernel related, so you could always try a different kernel to test it.

Try to unplug your router for 10 seconds and plug it back in. Then forget the wifi connection and reconnect to it.

No it's not a problem with anyone's router in this case... Wifi devices other than phone should be working fine as does in my case..
Fiddling with the router is a distraction than being root cause.

have did a full wipe,wipe every thing! have tried different kernel different modem and also have restart my router but simply cant solve the problem.

Well if you tried everything, flash a stock ROM from sammobile.com, and send your device off to a Samsung Repair Centre. It sounds like a hardware problem after everything you have done.

Make sure you remove your SD Card when you send it off, and just to be safe use a USB Jig to remove any traces of a custom binary counter and the use of Odin.

Using a JIG is a lot more safer if you aren't sure. Triangle Away can easily brick your device if you don't know what you are doing.

So I guess I do not kno how svoice works but it doesn't seem to be working for me anymore....
I tried "what's the weather like for today" it correctly shows the question, however takes a long time to process and comes back to say " no weather results, sorry"
Anyone else experiencing issues with svoice...I already tried deleting its data and restarting app no luck. it can do web searches but no weather at all

Svoice is terrible nonetheless, It delays the home button (disable svoice and see the difference) it laggs way behind siri and has very limited capabilities. It would be adequate if you can use it when the phone is locked and can be used via headset. The major delay on the home button is a deal breaker itself to me
Down? Hasn't it always been "down"? Hahaha.

The first time I tried to get the weather from svoice was about a week ago with no problem. So I assume this is a network problem most likely that will be fixed on their end.

By resetting it, do you mean you went back to unrooted? Or just a stock rom?
By the way I'm running Bean's Custom Stock Rom on VZW and it's not working. I'm guessing it's just a server issue with the activation of so many new GS3's
In advance of the Olympics, Sammy has been doing all sorts of network maintance.
Yesterday all the TV services were down.
Is this only affecting Verizon devices?
Could it be related to the updates surrounding the Siri debacle?
I highly doubt it's from the number of activations.

In my opinion, S Voice isn't terrible but it is behind Siri.
To have the home button respond faster just uncheck the 'launch S Voice by double clicking the home key' in the settings. You can also use S Voice when the phone is locked. Setup Wake up commands and you're set.

So I've only had my Lumia for 5 days but from day one it's been randomly freezing no matter what I'm doing, be it texting, web surfing, anything. I downloaded the software update and the problem persists. It happens several times per day and I have to soft reset which erases some of my settings, its totally annoying. Is there a fix for this or do I have a defective device?
Try a hard reset which unfortunately will wipe everything from your phone back to factory settings, If problem still persists then you definitely have a faulty device and should return it.
Set your highest data setting to 3G. This will disable LTE but for me it seems to solve the problem. Let me know if this works for you.

You missed my point. Disabling any stock feature of the phone to get it work properly is not a "fix", it's a bandaid. I stand by my statement...defective. Whether it be the hardware or software...still defective.

If you have a sim card that does not support LTE then yes it is a fix. However. I have also installed the portico update, 4G disabled and the phone went from never rebooting or freezing to reboot 2-3 times a day and at least 1 freeze.
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.
