Can i do something about that, please help me?

Did you wipe dalvik/cache?

For Atrix resets, try a fruit cake with radio 1.77.38P

i locate the problem, atrix work fine when is in my country and on my network, but when i going somewhere i use igo on my atrix and everything works fine till it have my network, when change network it resests, yesterday i went to croatia and serbia and atrix resets again, i use airplane mode, start igo and everything goes ok from that time
what could be the problem, radio maybe, i use N_01.77.37P, it came with a phone, never change it, what version you recommend?

Try to flash room with full batterty.It happened once to me and this fixed my problem.

??? Thank you but that cant solve this, i have problem only when phone change gsm network, i use manual search always but when i use igo and change country, of course im out of signal range and atrix pop up window for a network search, im change then to automatic and then it starts to reset. Yesterday i put it in airplane mode and use a navigation 5 hours without charging, it works, but if i change to network mode it keeps reseting, first i can access to menu, later only pass boot screen and reset
Im seeing this problem as interesting, i was think that it will be more solution till now

[Q] Issues recovering my phone - Request Assistance

I went into Recovery Mode today to clear my cache and Dalvik cache to install a new ROM and somehow I ended up in a dir for the partition and accidentally hit 0M so now the phone won't even go into recovery mode. I get a kernel error when trying to get in there. The phone still boots into CM7 fine, however I can't do anything because the points on the screen are not where they should be. It's hard to explain, but if I hit the home button the icon above it is clicked.
I tried reflashing the pudding SBF via RSDLite and that did nothing. I've attempted fastboot, however I get <waiting for device> every time. I have the proper drivers (Windows 7 64) and I even tried it in XP virtual to no avail. All I wanted to do was install the new Neutrino 2.5p and now I'm at a loss. I've researched what I could and have found nothing that coincides with my issue.
My bootloader is unlocked already and I was running CM7. Is there any way to get into fastboot via the OS or do you HAVE to reboot? I'm at a loss right now and I was doing everything I could to not post, but if someone would help me out I'd appreciate it.
I fixed it. Turns out my other machine 15 miles away still was able to recognize it.. weird.. either way I flashed pdsfix.img and the logo.bin and RomRacer's Recovery. Then I flashed Neutrino 2.5p with the addons I wanted and it works good now...

really messed up....bricked the phone and need help!

I have searched and searched and searched.....nothing seems to work.....
I was messing around with my phone (latest update and rooted). I was messing with rom toolbox and was trying to change the theme...
Bottom line, phone is stuck on the M screen (dual core screen)
I tried to do a hard reset but it didnt work... Just goes back to the same screen.
any ideas are greatly appreciated!!!!
Thank you in advance
Is your bootloader unlocked? Do you have CWM installed by any chance?...
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
nope neither
from what you've said it would appear that you've changed something whilst in rom toolbox and as such it won't boot up.
You say you've got the latest update and I am wondering if this means your bootloader is locked now? When did you update your phone? when you start up the phone are you able to get in recovery? (volume down when starting up).
Anything I could suggest is going to be full of dangers (sbf flash for one).
Barry, the phone was updated a few weeks ago. I believe it was running 2.3.6
Any thing that can be done like sbf i am willing to give a try....and yes i messed up in rom toolbox
Soft Bricked my phone
I did the same to my phone as well. I had updated my phone from neutrino 2.7 to 2.8 through CWM. When I booted up for the first time, it worked fine but when I did a factory reset through neutrino, it booted up and then got stuck on the boot screen.
The phone was unlocked and rooted but for some reason usb is not being recognized in the pc, CWM is not loading up and RSD lite wont recognize phone because it is not running Blur. I tried using various commands on fastboot and adb such as fastboot devices and adb device but I dont get anything back..the device seems to stuck in perpetual bootloop. I can get into fastboot and RSd but it is stuck on starting fastboot protocol suppor..
The one bright spot is that LED comes on when i plug in USB without battery meaning the phone is being charged by USB just not being recognized. I tried installing all the drivers and reinstalling them but I usually get a device error on computer which is a 64 bit Windows 7.
I think I am F#Cked..can somebody help me..
theoretically, since I can get into fastboot cant I just go to recovery and wipe the data and then install a update from the SD card?
I would just need to unlock the bootloader right?
it was running the 4.5.141 update.
I can get RSD to show up on the phone and it does connect to the computer.....
FastBoot does connect to the computer

why not give it a try? if it does not work, flash the 4.5.141 update via RSD Lite, if you get into bootloop, push clockwork recovery via fastboot, then boot into recovery wipe cache, wipe davlik cache, wipe data/factory reset, then reboot. if you really can't get it to work you can send it to me so I can try fix it, that is if you would trust me. Just pay for return shipping, you can use usps flat rate box with signature confirmation so you'll know i have received it. I have previously helped a guy in Dell Streak Forum and I have lots of positive feedback in XDA Market place, i just love helping other out, flashing ROMs and fixing broken/bricked phones. Just PM me if you are interested.
I have made progress!
I have managed to unlock the bootloader with the following
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1182871
I am still stuck on the same M screen still, it just says unlocked now.....
Where do I go from here?
Looks like all I need to do now is find a way to get the rom onto the sd card so that I can flash it with clock work recovery.....
I tried to mount my external 2 gig card and do it that way but it didnt work....
Any other ideas?

(HELP ME) atrix won't go past M logo

So I have a rooted, unlocked atrix 4g running nottachtrix 1.3.1 (which is based off of 2.3.6 and the 4.5.141 OTA). anyway, the phone worked fine for a couple of weeks after i bought it. SOOOO I bought a lapdock just to use for long car rides and stuff (big screen movies). after about three days with the lapdock the phone started acting up so I wiped dalvik/factory restore/wipe data and reflashed Nottachtrix. Then it would boot up to Motoblur registration and after 2 seconds, shut off. So I did the restore process again and now the phone will only boot to the M logo.
I can pull up the "fastboot" menu but it won't actually open those options. For example, if i choose android recovery, the phone will stay on the M logo and say "starting android recovery" but it won't ever get to the recovery. This applies for all the fastboot options and also for just booting up normally (just stays on the M logo forever).
I read somewhere ( i think it was here) that some people are having a similiar problem and it can be fixed by using RSD and flashing an sbf (would that be alright with my unlocked 4.5.141?) and the problem originates from a problem in the webtop partition (which makes sense considering my recent use of webtop). However, as I can't get into rsd can someone help me? has anyone else had this problem?
Sorry didn't mean to thank you. My hyper kitten did that.
one of the thread i read earlier about a problem similiar to mine, someone did the same thing (accidentally thank someone)
Needs to be a way to unthank. Lol. Hope you get your problem fixed.
bumpo
I would try flashing the 2.3.6 sbf using rsd lite. That would at least get you back to stock, and you could start over.
I also use nottachtrix and I have no troubles, so I do not think it is your problem.
After flashing, if that doesn't fix it for you, you are ready for warranty, and they are being very generous with replacement at the moment. But go straight to Motorola, not where you bought it. If you bought it used, don't offer that info, they don't even ask that question.
Good luck.
Have you tried going to fastboot mode directly while booting up. (Volume up)
I faced similar issue while flashing a rom (no dock though).
Deleted the data (fastboot -w), wiped the caches, and luckily it worked. Then I could go into recovery and flash another rom.
Sent from my Moto Atrix using Tapatalk
except i can't get into fastboot or rsd. it will show that option and say "starting Rsd protocol" but it won't actually start the rsd protocol (atleast my computer doesn't recognize it)
i can get into CWM recovery, though i have to turn it on, selecet android recovery, and then plug it into the lapdock.
DO NOT USE RSD UNLESS UR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT.
if u can get to recovery and fastboot then do this via fastboot.
All CRAP REMOVING
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase webtop
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase preinstall (not required)
fastboot -w (redundant, wipes userdata and cache)
and if possible reflash ur recovery too (might be the problem maker.
and then re-download ur favorite ROM and flash again.
I had such problems in gobstoper (bell stock) and this trick helped me a lot.
now i do this all the times.

Flash 198_7 radio, if you have still problems, flash 198_7 libmoto_ril.so.
If you have problems with wifi, flash 254_13 modules and 254_13 boot.img

Thanks Peetr..
I had flashed USC2.3.5 sbf but i am stuck at initial wizard where it shows android icon, but after touching its not moving ahead and main thing is the signal is not receiving. so i flashed 2.3.5sv2_198_7_radio.sbf but still stuck at same wizard. also I am unable to enter bootstrap recovery. only thing i can do via RSD lite.
Also I want MOF2.3.5 on my photon
Reflash full sbf one more time, wipe data in recovery and connect to wifi, to pass the setup wizard.
flashing failed
As I cant enter bootstrap or android recovery i couldnt wipe data, but
1>Entered RSD protocol Support by pressing power and vol up together and
2>started flashing
1FF-sunfire-user-2.3.5-4.5.1A_SUN_USC_19.0-19-release-keys-signed-USC-US
3>after some process of flashing of 6/7 mins, now it says that Failed Flashing process interface bp error.
I restarted the phone and it took time to boot
after it booted with USC logo, immediately i received some error saying before the android wizard
sorry, the application text messaging process com.motorola.conversation has stopped unexpectldy and after that
touch to android to begin, but even after touching nothing happens except it shows that i have touched and network signal shows red mark
also got suggestion poll schedukar service error.
I guess this USC2.3.5 has not flashed correctly, how can i wipe data as I dont have any idea how to enter recovery

enter the recovery manually. turn the phone off. press vol down and power until fastboot appears. press vol down until you see android recovery. press vol up to select. wipe away.
yes, android recovery mode entered but it shows failed triangle yellow-exclamation android icon, is there any other way?
Once in recovery when you see the yellow triangle push vol up and vol down together and the options will appear. Select factory reset. Then power button
wow Great morning, I did not know this.
Thanks I can do factory reset now. After this I will reflash USC2.3.5 again as peetr suggested.
again flashing failed, But booted successfully in usc2.3.5

HELP, my S3 keeps rebooting after startup, cant wipe data/factory reset from CWM also

Hi,
Please give me some help guys,
After installing an app from a torrent (dont know if its related but it happened after installing and opening it) my phone keeps restarting every time, it boots up normally but after just about 5 seconds in the home screen it reboots again. I need to pull out battery to get it stop rebooting.
I've entered in CWM, but cant wipe data/factory reset, when I choose that option it appears "wipping /data" and it just reboots again. I cant also format /data from advanced options. Also, when /data is mounted I cant unmount it also from advanced options. Can wipe cache and dalvik cache but not data. Cant use the phone!
I have Omega v36 with superSU and CWM touch in it. How can I solve this?
Happened to me once also. Idk which app you installed but I had installed privacy guard and it resulted in a boot loop. The 5 seconds it gives you at start, try to go in settings then applications and uninstall the app which caused this. Took 15 minutes of me trying and I lucked out and uninstalled it. Phone been fine after that

I've tried, but as soon as I hit the "unninstall" the phone reboots. I guess trying to interact with something in /data makes it reboot.
App + torrent = probable malware .
Flash stock rom via Odin is the first step .

Well, things have gone worst, i've entered in safe mode and choose factory reset from settings, now the phone keeps rebooting, show the green robot of factory reset for 2 seconds and then reboots again. Now cant even get in the samsung logo neither in recovery or download mode.

- I think I can save it cause it is booting normally then something goes wrong
