My atrix 4G reboots when i lock it or when it goes to "idle" mode, i've been trying to update it to see if that resolves the problem but i can't, the phone copies the files for the update then it reboots starts loading files shows a red mark and gets stuck in the goapk.com logo the phone has an unlocked bootloader and it's rooted, also wifi displays "error" and when i try to turn it on it reboots and recently the computer doesn't recognize the phone when i plug it into a usb port and viceversa the phone doesn't show any usb connected notification or charge, the phone it's driving me nuts! please any help will be highly appreciated
Can you get it booted anymore? If so, try to slip into Airplane mode. That might stop the random reboots. If it does, then I'd suggest the following:
1) Reboot to recovery and clear both cache and dalvik-cache
2) Consider flashing a newer radio
Let us know if Airplane mode stops the random reboots.
What rom do you use? Stock or custom rom? I recommend flashing new rom such neutrino CM7 or nottachtrix.

Thanks man! it almost stopped it keeps doing it but much less frequent and rare now it seems like the airplane mode helps a lot the reboots are not random they mainly happen when i leave the phone idle or locked altough i still have the wifi and usb issues any suggestions for that?, and what is dalvik-cache how can i clear it? what radio should i flash?

Stock 2.3.4 android build 4.5.91, where can i find those roms and are they good?
I'm using v40 of temasek unofficial cm11, Boefflea version 11 kernel.
while I was using my phone, the phone suddenly went into a reboot and started the boot-loop, even when I pull the battery out and put it back in it starts booting immediately and goes into the boot-loop , whenever I try to go into download mode or recovery mode, once or twice I will be able to reach it, but 3 seconds in, it restarts and goes into the boot loop again (I can't choose between restarting or going into download mode)
would a USB jig help me getting into the download mode or will it be 3 seconds in and restarts?
would a service center help me retain my data as I need them?
Thank you.
momentarily I've managed to be able to access download mode and the laptop started making a sound trying to identify the device, too bad the battery fell off (or the phone restarted) lol
anyways I still need help because I couldn't get into any of them
If the phone starts the moment a battery is inserted then usually the power button is stuck -try giving it a wiggle, or get it replaced.

yeah will do that once this gets fixed lol ..
for some awkward reason, I found out that once I pull out the battery I can use download mode
what should I download?
I tried flashing CWM but I get back to the bootloop ... should I install a newer bootloader?
No, bootloader is irrelevant to firmware. You would be best to flash a full stock rom with odin then factory reset and see if it will boot. I would suspect the power cycling may have caused partition problems if recovery got wiped.

which would mean I would lose all the data in the previous cm11 right?
I'm trying my best to flash a recovery but I think it got wiped for good.. I'm trying to flash it over and over again .. (I unplug the battery once I'm in download mode to prevent the sudden restart) .. before I flashed the CWM through odin I was able to go into a glimpse of a recovery mode, now I can't seem to see it at all...
is there a way to just copy the data (mostly pictures) through odin or adb with my phone current state?
Google says it might be possible

only through recovery mode or hoping your phone would suddenly connect after many boots lol
I don't think that will be my case .. oh well
as long as I can get my phone working again
going back to stock rom didn't fix the issue. can't access anything yet.
any help?
if anyone is reading this, I've been looking everywhere for a stock rom with pit file, I think that's the problem I'm facing since I have different bootloaders and different modes, somewhere around that I jacked my partitions and I think this would help putting it all back
I've found ones for android 4.1 but nothing of 4.3 .. since I came from 4.3 stock rom and then 4.4 kitkat temasek I think 4.1 won't help me at all
time to go to a service center I guess.
OK this is weird...
after I gave up I put my phone on a recover firmware that for some bizarre reason brought it back to life!!! I just put the phone back and left .. 5 hours later it was on and working.. I was able to access the phone for a brief moment.. but for some reason again I wasn't able to get the touch screen to work... I was able to raise the volume.. restart the phone.. but nothing on touch screen..
then it went back to the dead state...
any ideas?

Hi all, my question prescinds from a phone particular model. The problem is that for some sort of software issue, the phone restarts itself after few seconds that rom unlock appear. I'm sure that is a sw issue because in recovery mode it stays alive and when he does the application update after a dalvik cache wipe, all goes well too!
It's not possible to enable usb debug because it restarts too soon and in recovery (cwm) it's not possible to connect via adb. It's not a rooted phone. Also in safe mode it stucks in bootloop
What i can do before a factory reset?

Looks like its bootlooping ... Yes its a software issue ... I don't think u have any option other than factory reset ... Take a backup first before u do that...or perhaps u can use a logcat if u know what it is
i will try to take backup in sd card and retrieve some useful data from this.
how can i use logcat if can't connect through adb?
Hey there,
I was actually searching a lot about my problem but I can't find a solution anywhere so I wanted to ask you people.
Here is the story;
I tried to install twrp using a 3rd party Google play app it downloaded and said installed the twrp and asked whether I want to reboot the phone or not. Then phone got stuck in bootloop. Looks similar to the other ones but believe me it is not.
Here is why;
- Phone keeps restarting I can't even charge the phone because of that the battery just gets drained so I can't connect it to the pc
- Can't enter recovery or the fast boot mode I tried all key combinations only volume up+power works for me and it shows 3 selections. Recovery mode,fast boot mode,normal boot mode. When I select recovery mode it shows HTC logo and just keeps bootlooping. When I select fast boot mode it just says fast boot mode initiating and gets stuck there ( waited 5 hours ) when I select normal boot it already doesn't boot.
- I can't charge the phone to flash on pc since I have to have at least %35. Whenever I connect charger it starts bootlooping and never stops. Like literally I tried 24 hours and it never stopped.
- I am using Android 4.2.
Does anyone have any idea on fixing this ? This is my work phone and I can't get it to work. This is really very frustrating.
Can anyone help me get to the recovery mode ? Is my phone bricked ? If so is there any way to recover the phone or the data inside of it ? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
So... any ideas ?
