restarts strangers - Motorola Atrix 2

Hi guys. I have a problem with my Atrix 2 and wanted to know if you could guide me.
30% of the time that I connect via USB on the computer is restarted. And sometimes doing nothing is off and I have to remove the battery and stick it again.
Any idea what might happen?

I'm not sure exactly what you're asking. Is the phone randomly rebooting itself? Also, what exactly have you done to the phone: i.e.: are you rooted, have you installed a custom rom you're running, or any tweaks or mods you've made? The more information you can give, the more we can help...

I know my words are not clear because my English is very poor and there is no page in Spanish on the Atrix 2.
It restarts when I connect to the computer and sometimes when I'm using.
Well, do not use any cooked ROM, I have the original AT & T 2.3.6

I know the original ATRIX 4G was having issues with random rebooting, but I've not seen much of that with the ATRIX 2. You might try a factory reset and see of that solves things for you...

If the phone reboots randomly without being on charge or USB to PC, maybe a bad battery? I'd try the reset first, I seem to remember my girlfriend's ATRIX 4G rebooting itself at random, and I factory reset it -seemed to alleviate it.

yeah, if it is just when plugging in, I would say bad cable, but otherwise, try a wipe.
EDIT: is it fully rebooting, or just hot rebooting (does it just go back to the animation, or totally turn off then come back up to the dual core screen)?

Is complete, as if he had turned off ..
I did a factory reset as I said @ Apex_Strider and so far everything has gone well, I hope that does not happen rebot again haha
Thank you!

Ok this actually sounds similiar to something that happened to me, so here goes:
Was using Odin back to stock and something went wrong during. The phone screen went into a rainbow/starry clusterfack and then black. Couldn't get into download mode or anything, everytime I booted the stars came back or nothing at all. So eventually I just did what I would do if going into download, pulled batt, plugged in while holding volumes. Nothing came on to the screen but decided to continue, so I hit the volume up do accept the warning screen even though I couldn't see it and finally my phone showed up on my PC. Hit start in Odin and it worked and downloaded luckily. Sorry for the long explanation but, give this a try.
odins not seeing nothing from left to right i see
a phone --!--and a pc with a black screen some how it looks like its in some ultra low download mode :/
i see this

Never seen that but, it looks like your phone is having problems connecting to your PC, try rebooting the PC and then reconnect usb and phone.
Also I did a little googling, and I believe it means a bad flash, some ppl have fixed by a hard reset so try that link.
Here's the thread with different options, not our phone but same situation: thread

That is a form of download mode. Open odin and try connecting phone to pc ans see if odin reads it. If it doesnt kerp trying it will eventually. I had this hapoen to my captivate

yeah this phone its hardcore unbrickable... haha as bbwolf said its just a DL screen that usually appears (at least to me) when i connect the infuse and use odin with front or externally conected USB ports also happened to me in all 3 ports of my bro laptop
Instead using the back USB ports will prevent the outpowering of the usb port and you will flash flawlessly but Infuse its harcore you really have to mess things up to brick it... if even possible 0.o
If happens again relax... go to a desktop and flash with a back USB u will be back on track in notime
Samething happened to me, I ended up getting a factory replacement. The same day I placed the order with att I finally got Odin to work.

Had that exact screen when my phone took a tumble half way in a odin flash I took battery out plugged back in and odin recognized and flashed took a really long time though to flash longer than normal not sure why

[Q]Phone won't connect to computer since update

Well pretty much exactly what it said since I updated to the 2.3.4 my phone won't connect to my computer and if it does it will go away after two or three seconds. Updated the drivers to the newest ones from LG and still nothing.
Anyone know how to fix this?
sounds dumb but... did you reboot both computer and phone?

Yup it went on for about 30 seconds after that then nothing. but the battery is charging so I know it's connected
Then uninstall drivers and try again, I connected no problems at all after doing the update on stock and rooted and on new cm7.

My phone wont even connect to Keis Air, i tried connecting my phone while its in download mode and when its stuck in the rethink possible screen. Still wont connect to Keis Air.
They way I was able to fix mine was to first open Kies then select initialize firmware and connect phone to USB port in back of PC. Follow the prompts they will ask for model number and serial number it is located under battery. Select OK. Once firmware is finished Downloading it will prompt you to accept, disconnect phone from PC and then place phone in DL mode by removing battery reinsert battery press volume +- and then volume + to continue once you do that then connect phone to PC via USB and follow screen prompt on PC. It took me about one hour for mine to finally return to stock. I'm going from memory because I'm not sitting in front of computer at this time. Maybe someone with more knowledge than I can help. Good luck.

[Q] Did I just brick my phone?

So I'm completely new at this stuff and I followed this guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1470716). I got to the point where I had a custom ROM (Valhalla Black Edition) and it was working,but I decided I didn't like Valhalla Black Edition and I wanted to go back. So I went to CWM and selected backup and restore, selected my backup that I backed up earlier. It all seemed to work but now my phone is stuck at the boot screen. Any help would be greatly appreciated and sorry if I come across as a noob, it's because I actually am a noob.
Ur pretty screwed this point
Responded to your post in the other thread. Earlier versions of CWM had issues restoring on different versions of CWM than the back up was made from.
Hi. In the recovery menu try a full wipe before restoring the rom: wipe system, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache.

What where you flashing with odin? First thing I would check is to make sure your battery has charge. These phones are really hard to brick but it can happen.
When you insert battery, does the computer see the phone? Sometimes, even with the black screen, you are still in dl mode.

The stock rom, i was trying to flash the 2e recovery, but it was bad because after the recovery the phone was saying it was another galaxy s model, i can't remember t9000 whatever... after that, the screen was buggy ( various colors in the screen), and finally decided to go back to stock, the process was almost complete but before it finish says failed! so i disconnect the phone and restart it, and it did not turn on.
Thanks for the reply, i will try to recharge the battery and see if the pc recognizes.

Wish you luck. Sounds like wrong firmware. If you have the sgs4g, use the link from first post and try the one click.

[Q] Droid 3 stuck in bootloop

I realize there are multiple threads like this but throughout all of them I have not found any that relate to my issue or a combination of them. If I have missed one I apologize in advance and please direct me to that thread then. I was running steel droid what I thought was 5.5 ICS but it looks like it is 5.1 according to the forums. I was previously running steel droid 4.5 GB. I was switching back to 4.5 because I could not get wifi hotspotting to work. I forgot to wipe my cache and went to install 4.5 and I am stuck in bootloop. X+Power gives me the android error screen, M+Power allows me into the main menu but I cannot use AP fastboot, SBF motorola will not pick up my phone and the screen will show a connection to the USB cable. I've never had a problem before but also have never forgotten to wipe the cache so any thoughts would help.

I would but I get android error screen with exclamation mark each time regardless of how I access recovery X+Power or vol +,- and Power then going to recovery, I wouldn't have thought that not wiping the cache would have been the cause but it was the one step I didn't do that I normally always do so I was just adding it in for information but thanks for the know how that it wasn't the cause. Any other thoughts since I cant even get into my backup ROM or recovery, I have another SD card not sure if my SD card has become fried for some reason, I will be trying that to see if maybe that is all it is.

Unfortunately you can easily tell that it is not stock ROM by bootloop
Well your computer should recognize your droid that's a common problem with Odin and Samsung one of these steps always work so try then and seen if we can't get your droid recognized NUMBER 4 WILL WORK 99% OF THE TIME BUT TRY THE OTHER METHODS FIRST 1. Use the stock cable or try a difrent port 2. If its possible on your program take out the battery and SD card as leaving them in course problems 3. Run the program as aminstrative 4. Plug the phone in and have it in download mode or whatever you call it WHILE THE COMPUTER IS BOOTING Up This will force the computer to recognize it not the best method but it always works
