Of course I searched around the forums for a fix but I could find a direct post with a fix. I rooted my phone a year ago ish and installed different roms. Recently added the beta CM 10/10.1. Everything worked find for about a month. Then for some reason the wifi stopped working. Got an error and then the phone crashes/reboots sometimes locks up. Tried recovery into other roms and still nothing. I read its a possible hardware fail but that cant be the reason. Every once in a great while the Wifi will work for about a minute then error out.
Does anyone have a fix that worked for them that had same symptoms? Or know of a working fix?
Thanks.
Applying pressure to various points with various objects seems to have helped some. Other than that, it definitely sounds like the well-known hardware failure. Just because wifi works now and then doesn't mean it's not it.

Before you ask, yes I did search first.
My HD2 (T-Mobile USA) started having issues with the touchscreen yesterday. I have read that many other people have had the same issue, and that it is a hardware issue that in turn causes a software issue.
I have yet to see a clear explanation for it though or a solution.
Usually the screen briefly doesn't work, and can be fixed by simply putting it in standby a couple of times. Occasionally though, the screen stops working altogether and will not start working again no matter what. I have tried booting into Android, flashing new ROMs, nothing will fix the touchscreen until it decides on it's own that it is ready to work again.
I used to have this issue occasionally before, but after I started using Darkstone or MCCM roms I rarely see it happens now.
I never had this problem until a couple of days ago, and I have been using Energy ROMs since I got the phone about 6 months ago.
The problem started when I began to use Android, but when it stops working I can't get it to work again even in Windows. I just flashed another ROM to see if that helped, but no luck. It hasn't worked since yesterday.
I was able to call HTC and even though I am not the first owner, they allowed me to send it in and repaired it free of the charge. They opened it up and replaced the LCD and digitizer (Thanks, HTC!)
I've had this problem for a while even on the original firmware. I'm hoping some whizz in the XDA forums can shed some light on it ?
Randomly, my phone won't wake up AT ALL. It's still running, but the screen just won't come on.
I'm currently on the Litening v1.1 rom, but I think that's inconsequential.
The only fix is to take the battery out and replace it and then it boots fine.
I decided to delve a little deeper. I installed an sshd service so I could attempt to ssh in if it happened again, which it just has. I ssh'ed in and managed to get the log file (that I've attached to this message).
I also got a couple of screenshots showing that the system monitor service had failed and that when the phone was rebooted, something had really drained the battery.
I also took a screenshot of what had consumed the most cpu while the phone was in the sleep of death......
Also attached to this post is the log taken AFTER the problem had happened, and it seems to show me pushing some keys to wake the beast up, but no joy.
Any help gratefully received !!!
Thanks in advance !

I have the same problem but i haven't been nearly as thorough in my investigation because I only got my GS2 2 days ago. It's happened at least 10 times since then. I've been searching forums and this is the first post I've found that seems to be the same problem. Can anyone help?

Umm,,try this..
It may be due to some kinda App..try uninstalling the apps which u installed or used just before this problem occured..
It happened with me too,,just one time though,,,when i installed an app(Night Vision..or something ),,,,i guess it causes some kind of sensor malfunction,,,,
I removed the battery,,,then reinstalled it,,,switched on the phone,,deleted the app,,,Ran an Antivirus(AVG,,,not a good one),,,and it showed me some kinda "suspicious message" warning,,,i pushed the fix button,,,and thats it,,,,
No problems so far..*fingers crossed*...hope it helps.
Thanks, I'm pretty sure it's an isolated problem and I've just been very unlucky.
Phones4U are replacing the handset.
My phone has not woken up out of sleep since about 24 hours ago. It's not shutting down, it's just not re-enableing the display or touchscreen after being in sleep mode.
I have tried a factory reset but that didn't help.
Just in case anyone has the same fault, there is no fix. Send it back.
My phone doesn't wake up sometimes. This morning it happened again and I had to take the battery out and put it back in. It's annoying but the only problem I have experienced thus far.
Update from me.........
I haven't had this issue for a long time now. I am now running litepro 1.5. I also disabled fast dormancy or whatever it's called so not sure which of the above fixed it.
But, what is strange is the problem originally occurred on the stock rom (orange) and a litepro rom ?!?!
But, litepro 1.5 seems to have solved the issue for me.
Now, reluctant to try a new rom, as it's a pain of a problem when it occurs. Hope others find a solution that works for them.

After having the phone nearly a week I'm still having problems with the WiFi.
Fine for day one, then noticed when I took it out of my pocket a day later or so that WiFi stated "Error" and couldn't initialize, This happens continously now and sporadically at random intervals (Reboot does not appear to fix it but keep trying does seem to)
Anyone know of this or how to fix it? Or is it just a dodgy handset? (I've still got a couple weeks to swap it over luckily)
I've searched the forums and found something about the same issue after a flashed kernel but I am COMPLETE STOCK, EXCEPT For Root and S-OFF and even restoring to a compeltely basic almost "Out of the box" image does not appear to fix it.
I flashed my Radio today to see if it helps but it doesn't look like it currently.
Any help appreciated (Hope this is in the right forum.

this error is generally caused by a mismatch between the loaded kernel and the loaded wifi module.
the loaded wifi module must be compiled with and match the loaded kernel. flashing a kernel and then loading a custom rom (which loads its own modules overwriting the modules from the kernel) is generally the way this error occurs.
how you rooted the device could lead to the above wifi error i.e. custom ROM with root, which could result in the above situation, or just flashing superuser.apk which wouldn't result in the above situation.
the part of your comments which stands out to me is that the issue appears to be intermittent. i think the best suggestion and approach, at this point, would be to load a completely stock system.
if the wifi issue still persists, even though it is intermittent, it should be hardware related as my device has never had this type of wifi issue and i'm on a stock ROM. if you're on stock and still have this issue, i would def take it back as it would appear to be hardware related. hopefully the wifi issue will occur while you're at the store making it easy to demonstrate the issue.
hope that helps, good luck!
Hello guys. I have a serious issue with my atrix. My touchscreen stops to work completely random. I've had this problem for a long time but when I restarted the phone, everything was ok for months. Yesterday it stopped completely. I was with the original ROM and put CWM and tried few roms. When I install new rom the touchsreen works perfect for X time. Last night I put jellybean and everything was ok for 2,3 hours. Then it started f*cking up. My phone rings and I can't pick up, turn off the display from the fingerprint button then turn it on again and it works. Later it got worse and now even a restart does not help. Phone works, rings and everything but I can't even unlock it?! I haven't tried changing the kernel yet, because I know nothing how to do that and there is not much how-to on the internet about that. I guess it's not a hardware problem, so maby it's the kernel. I'm quite a noobie in this stuff, but I read alot and I'll apreciate your help. 10x
Which Rom are you using
are you using leaked ICS or CM10/AOKP by epinter or Th3Bill.
before trying kernel i would suggest trying using a different rom, CM10 by epinter works fine for most of the users
Definately the problem was the kernel. I have some success, changed few kernels and the problem showed even trying to install CM10, you know the installation is made by touching stuff. Now i managed to make it work by installing 2.3.6 kernel + GB 2.3.6 and it is working so far. I'll test it for few days to see if it will die again and then try CM10 with the newer kernel. Last night I flashed CM10 and everything was ok for few hours, then the touch started making trouble and eventually stopped working completely. Will post update tommorow to tell if it is ok.
edit: It didn't last 1 hour, died again. Restart doesnt help. Phone works fine, but no touch response. Don't know what to do... different kernels and roms and same problem every time. Waiting for any ideas...
i have the same problem, ive tried a couple of different roms too. does your capacitative touch buttons stop working as well?
Try PDS Fix, else its digitizer
it looks more like a hardware problem, atrix digitizer are quite well known for such failures..
though i think it is not a PDS problem, i would suggest try PDS Fix once, it has helped a few
Get it from here --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131649
If this doesn't work i would suggest get a new digitizer off and replace it.
It's sound like a hardware problem definitely.The first thing you should do is to check the ribbon cables and connections.If it does not help you may need to replace the touch digitizer panel.
ropin1 - Yes, the capacitative touch buttons stop working aswell.
I'd have to read more about this PDS fix, because I have no idea what're you talking about.
So you are saying, that I have to change the digitizer only? I saw on ebay, that you can buy the digitizer with the cable on it for about 20$.
edit: I just disassembled the phone and checked all the cables and connections. Everything seems fine to me. Reassembled the phone and the screen still doesn't respond. Maby I just have to get a new digitizer... :/
My Verizon XT912 has done some strange things over the last few days. Firstly, when we went in to upgrade another phone, my service was interrupted about every 10 seconds or so, switching between 4g to 3g to no service and the only way to get it back was to restart the phone. Even then, the phone would only get signal for a few minutes, ultimately resulting in no service. Now, even on the stock rom, will not display a signal in an area where all of our other phones display full 4g signal (I have the triangle outline with the crossed circle) and the phone restarts when any app is selected, or even when left alone. I personally think something failed on the motherboard. What do you think?
I have the same phone and am having the same problem. I am pretty damn good with phones and have had a long time to mess with this one so know it pretty well. I have had this problem before and was able to fix it using RSD although I had to try many times. I tried a ton of different things and in the end have no idea what fixed it. I highly doubt it is a hardware problem, as when I fixed it the first time the phone was much faster than it had been in a long time. I am convinced it has to do with roms/partitions and the way the stock rom is flashed to it through fastboot. Right now I am once again for the 4th time stuck with this problem and when/if I come up with a better answer for you and other people I will make a thread with all the details I have about this specific problem and how to fix it because there are a lot. One thing I know is that anytime I have had this problem SU of any kind had serious issues, no matter what app (Superuser/SuperSU), or rom, or slot I was using, hence the theory it isn't inherently hardware related... that and the fact that I fixed it twice months ago, a couple days ago, and am stuck on it now. I hope to have some more info for you and everyone else on this soon as I haven't been able to find ANYTHING related to this so far after many many many hours of searching. If you or anyone else has anymore info on this or that might in some way help with this please post it here. I will be watching this thread for a while.
