Can you boot it into fastboot/recovery at all? (Turn on while holding Vol down)

Sounds like a weird bootloop problem but then you said sometimes it goes to the home screen and then it shuts itself down. Try switching your phone off and switch it back on WHILE pressing(and holding) the volume down button on your phone and let us know if you see "fastboot" written on the screen? You should do.

thx for the responses,yes it says fastboot and just sits there
So it just says "fastboot" and not "unlocked....fastboot"?
Either way, when you get to where it says "fastboot", press Vol down until it says "Android Recovery" and then press Vol up.
If you haven't flashed CWM you should get the little android with the triangle. At this point, press both volume buttons at the same time.
You should get a menu, use the volume keys to navigate to "Wipe" and then there should be an option at the bottom/left of the screen for "okay" and select that.

If your phone says "unlocked" they'll charge your bill 175 because that's user damage

I would have replied if I saw this earlier, but yes, other posters were right.
The solution to bootloops in 99.9% of cases is wipe data / factory reset. That should have fixed things up for you. But if you get a shiny new phone, that ain't bad either i reckon.
Thx for all the help!!!!

I just stumbled upon a 'safe mode' that our Atrix can be booted into, I believe its similar to windows safe mode, as in it only loads essential system files.
To do this, power off your Atrix, and press the power button to turn it on. Once the boot ANIMATION starts, immediately press and HOLD the vol up + vol down buttons until you get a long vibe, then release. you'll then see 'safe mode' at the lower left of the screen when the lockscreen comes up.
Im sure this could be of some use... for something. Just unsure exactly what this could be useful for at this point.
Is the data working? Can you make phone calls? I didn't try it yet.

I'm sure there are more than this, but I've heard safe mode mainly being used by people who get the force close of death loop (aka force close loop that never ends, even when restarting). This way in safe mode you can try to do something about the app causing the trouble.
like delete it?
Safe Mode FTW! Thank you! Thank you!
I was in a force-close loop after a launcher update and this was the solution.
XDA comes through again!!!
Thank you so much!
Someone should compile all the button configurations into a thread or something like that?

First time I found out about safe mode, it was when I was booting my Galaxy Note and at same time rubbing it against my trousers to wipe the screen clean. In GNote, during the boot animation the Menu key has to be tapped several times, no wonder the rubbing did the trick.
It is good to know now when it would be useful.

Doesn't it always?
I can do the same in my defy...but quarxs and the orher devs never found a use for this mode...
Maybe in atrix we can use it for something.

Sorry stupid question but the only thing I am concerned about ist the unremoveable battery.. what happens if you get an bootloop after flashing a ROM? Is there something like a reset button? do I have to use a screwdriver? Do I have to wait till battery drains completely?

If it bootloops you wipe and reflash!
Try holding the power button on your Nexus 7. I hope that answer your question.

Sorry i meant hanging on boot I had this the other day with my Nexus S.. The only solution was to remove the battery..
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
The One X has a function where holding the power button for 10 seconds or so performs a reboot. I'd imagine a similar system will be in place here

He asks how can he get back to the recovery.
I think long press on the power, anyway, you can use adb
Hold the power button to reboot, once the screen goes off, hold the volume keys and it will boot recovery/bootloader.
You can still input ADB commands during a bootloop, just type "adb reboot recovery" and you should be fine.
Hold down power button for 10 seconds, google thinks about the hacking community when it makes irremovable batteries.
Then 3 button combo into bootloader then choose recovery.
*if its anything like Nexus 7's bootloader*
Thanks a lot too all of us.. sometimes a solution can be so easy Tried that thing with holding before but I think I held the button not long enough..
Turned off the tablet off yesterday, and today when i press the power button i starts up, but gives me the same 3 line menu you get when you want to turn it off, or flightmode, or silent, and then turns off by it self.
What can i do?
Is there any menu you can go into to reboot, or set it back to factory settings? Like on rooted phones, volumebutton and power button?
The tablet is stock, not rooted, or unlocked.
Whilst turning on the button, during the initial Asus screen, hold the volume down button. You can do a factory reset from there

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
The power button may be stuck, physically.

How do i do a cold boot on this tf300, I used to do it on my tf201, but is it the little hole on the top of the tablet on this one?
To do a cold boot, do what I mentioned above but don't press anything after holding the volume button down and getting into the bootloader menu (if that's what it's called?)

Keep pressed power button and volume down in the same time till it cold reset itself. It will start and give you some options but just wait to do its reeboting.

Found the problem, the powerbutton is no good, have to send it inn.
Thanks for the help guys
My wife turned on her N7 this morning and it wouldn't boot. Instead there is the droid guy with red triangle saying no command.
Can't use WUG since ADB returns no devices. Tried several computers but none see the device. Unplugged the battery but still the same issue.
Appreciate your help

Turn off the device(Hold the power button for about 10sec) if it's on. Now hold all three hardware buttons(Power, volume UO & Down) togather till the google logo shows up, and this will tur your device on into fastboot mode. Now you should be able to to find your devece from your PC(if driver installed). If you ment "Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit" by "WUG" than you probably want to use Flash stock + Unroot (Can't boot up).

Thanks I tried this. When I try to turn it off it immediately reboots. Tried holding the 3 buttons when this occurs, but the result is still the dead droid with no command under it. The screen where you can select reboot recovery, bootloader never comes up. Confirmed fastboot isn't working.
Any other ideas?

Got the angry droid doing this. One I turned the power on, held the volume key up and once again with the volume key down. What am I doing something wrong?

Even if you just tap the volume button on the Google screen? It should have the same result normally, but something is funky.

Something is really funky. I did the same exercise with another N7 and got into bootloader with no issues
Think it's worth letting the battery die and start over? Grasping at straws

Perhaps, just be aware that running the battery all the way down can also cause booting issues.
