I have an ATT Atrix with 4.5.91. A couple of days ago, the Atrix started crashing 10+ times per day. It always happens if I try to turn on wifi, but happens other times too. Sometimes wifi will show error, instead of turning on. Bluetooth has been spotty as well. Any ideas? I tried reflashing 4.5.91 already.
Did you flash any ROMs? Kernels? Is phone unlocked?
Please, give more info....

Have you recently installed any apps that are using internet connection?
Install one of the firewall apps for android and monitor what's happening when you turn on the wifi.
It is unlocked with the 4.5.91 pudding + preroot sbf. I had the upgrade.zip version on it when I started experiencing the problem. I then flashed it with the 4.5.91 mentioned above to see if that would fix the issue. I have not installed any new apps recently, but some could have updated I suppose.
Just out of curiousity.. what Radio are you using?
I have never flashed the radio specifically. My baseband version is N_01.77.30P.-
I am also having this problem. I currently have stock 2.3.4 on ATT and my baseband version is N_01.77.30P. I've never rooted or unlocked my Atrix, all stock.
When I am able to turn wifi on, it will sometimes connect but only for a few seconds. Then it just reboots multiple times. If I am able to get it running, it says error by the turn on wifi option under settings. Mobile hotspot doesn't work either. If I keep wifi off, it doesn't crash.
I've tried restoring to factory settings, both through the factory data reset while the phone is on and through android recovery, but neither help. Any other ideas?
thanks
Backup your current rom. Flash stock 2.3.4 via fastboot. Wipe via fastboot. Reboot. --> problem solved

I tried that. The issue persists. I am thinking it might be hardware based.
Absolutely the same Wifi problem for me.
I'm on stock 2.2, rooted and deodexed.
Never has any wifi issues previously. And it's started for no reason.
Last program i installed was Tunein Radio and it worked fine about a day with Wifi. Not sure it's related.
Tried to restore my old cwr backup, but it's not helped.
A friend of mine had this problem with his atrix. His was stock ATT firmware never modded or unlocked. I factory reset it and problems persisted. His wouldn't connect to wifi at all. I believe it was hardware related, so if you didn't void your warranty, return it. If you did, you can ask Motorola to fix it... see what happens.
Side note: I kept the malfunctioning phone away from my functioning phone as I did not want it to get any ideas.

This happening to me now. Still no solution for this? My atrix:
System version: 4.5.91.MB860.ATT.en.US
Android version: 2.3.4
Baseband version: N_01.77.30P
Kernel version: [email protected] #2
Build number: 4.5.91
If I set the IPaddress, it wont connect. If I left the IPaddress blank, it automatically set to 192.168.1.253
Help please, thanks.
(FIX): go to wireless settings go into advanced settings. Click on sleep settings chose NEVER! Problem solved! Try it works

If I were you, I would contact at&t and see if you're still under warranty (by default motorola gives you a 1 year warranty). I have had the same shutting down issue with 3 atrixes. my 4th one is actually in the mail and should be here today (wooo... kinda). I also believe that the atrix has a very bad issue with hardware. Ive tried tons of rom, stock and others such as cyanogen, and this issue persist no matter what software you run.
I've had issues with WIFI/Radio causing regular crashing, especially when trying to switch to Airplane mode. I'm running CM7 (stable) and 77.36 radio. I've been able to resolve the problem by booting into CWM and reflashing both CM7 and the radio. Sometimes I have to reflash the radio a couple of times. Eventually it seems to take and then the Atrix is quite stable.
For me, the instability problem occurs whenever I reset the battery stats. After I perform the steps above, it seems to resolve it.
Anyway, if you're running stock, I'd recommend downloading a copy of the radio you're using and try reflashing it a couple of times via CWM before you give up on the phone.
I had the same problem. Returned mine under warranty. They told me that just the day before me they had someone come in with the same problem..
Well... started having this issue recently myself, not too sure exactly what had caused it. I had been flashing a few of NFHimself's Gobstopper's, after my phone took a nose dive (one of the screen shattering, battery flying and denting variety) and I started getting reboots. I hadn't had a chance to play with it prior to the nose dive, but I do know that I had reset the battery stats (something I DON'T normally do when flashing) so I'm hoping I can replicate the fix of radio flashing.
Right now I'm going to keep re-flashing ROM's and Radio's, so far just trying the Gobstoppers 2.2.2 and upwards as well as samcripp's Fruitcakes and this radio, I'll be sure to update if this works. Pretty sure I've voided my warranty a few times over already (unlocking, plus the shattered screen kinda shows signs of abuse) so returning isn't exactly my first idea.
I'm guessing that it would seem to be related to this battery stats issue, as my GPS seems to be working and I'm fairly certain that it is the same chip that controls GPS, WiFi, and Bluetooth. So unless it's some very specific hardware based issue, this is my best guess.
If anyone is aware of any other potential solutions to this issue, or knows of any other Bell Mobility (Canada) radios/ROM's, I'll be more than happy to try your suggestions!
I had a similar issue. My phone would crash multiple times a day. It started after att released an update. I read somewhere that it could be an app causing it so I went into taskmanager and had all apps end after use with the exclusion of pandora and navigation. Problem solved. Not sure what app was causing it but I never had a single crash/random reboot after. Phone was unhacked and the only update on it was the last official one released by att (sorry can't remember the number. I've since upgraded to a Cm7 rom).

Hi I recently got my i9505 on EE in the UK and decided to update to the prerooted stock ME3 ROM here. I also flashed the EVR CSC via odin as 4G wasn't showing up. I thought all went well but I noticed a strange problem when using certain apps (Facebook, Instagram, a couple others that involve images it seems)
When using them on Wi-Fi, the connection timed out and I cannot browse/upload, however other apps such as browser/twitter/chrome all work fine? then if I disable Wi-Fi, *all* apps work fine over 4G/3G. I thought it would be a router problem so I tried another house and I still get the same issue so it must be the phone.
Since then I've flashed the stock EE version ME2 and MDD firmware back via odin, factory reset several times on different firmwares but I still get the same problem?
Any help would be much appreciated as I'm very confused! Thanks!

Hi,
Did you try clear data and cache for each app in app manager?

Yes, I tried this and also remove then reinstall apps
I also have an S3 on the same Wi-Fi network that works fine with these apps
Thanks for help
After a replacement phone was sent and still had the same issues, I did some more digging and found out the problem was my MTU settings on my broadband which were set at 1500. Although all other devices on my network were fine, the S4 didn't like it and when I reduced it worked fine!
Hey there guys, I apologize if this has been covered, as I feel its related to an "efs" folder type of issue. I'm just not quite sure where the hell to even begin searching.
I've been on 4.3 since the leak and have been using Cataclysm 4.3 JWR ROM for a while now, problem free. All was running great until yesterday I was downloading some media and transferring it to my laptop (~10gb of traffic before I noticed the problem), and my WiFi shut off and restarted itself. My mobile data kicked in at that point for all of 10 seconds until the WiFi reconnected and within 30 minutes my signal bars suddenly dropped to zero and calls couldn't be made. "Mobile network not available." message appears. So I figured i'd pull the SIM, replace and reboot. When that didn't work I tried rebooting without the SIM, to see if it would detect no SIM card and prompt me to put one in and reboot to be able to connect to mobile network. Well nothing was detected. A full wipe, reflash of identical ROM, reflash of updated ROM, reflash of original JWR deodexed & rooted backup, all with the same outcome. I have tried everything short of downloading the stock image and flashing that but I haven't got around to it since I haven't had time to backup my internal SD before losing all data. I should note that I'm on baseband .84/4.3 bootloader and have been since Google pushed JWR & JSS. I haven't tried flashing a new modem, I figured that wouldn't been an issue. I suppose I'll try flashing .48 and update.
Edit: I forgot to mention that yes, WiFi is in fact working. Mobile signal seems to be the only thing affected.
Edit: Reflashing baseband .84 and .48 didn't work.
I really appreciate any ideas guys, I'd like to sort this out rather than having to flash stock and RMA it or something :/
All settled, it was an issue with the frequency band my provided operates on. Mod can lock/delete thread thanks.

Hello,
Update: apparently its not broken because I did a full wipe and installed Echoe again, left MJ9 on it, and it seems to be working, for now anyway. -MJ5 was recommended by the developer
U2: Wifi stops working again.
I am worried that my s4 might be broken since any modem I try I don't get a stable wifi or the phone crashes when using GPS on a data connection (sometimes it works, sometimes the network drops and sometimes the phone crashes).
I was using Echoe ROM on baseband mj5 for a couple of months with no problems but lately the wifi problems started showing up and after reboots the phone would ALWAYS crash once at lockscreen (right after booting) and then it would work fine on second or third reboot. I upgraded to newer echoe but the same, so I decided to go to an AOSP rom and switched to Liquidsmooth (latest on 4.3). And I was having even bigger problems with network and slow wifi (on echoe the wifi problem was intermitent, on this it's always slow) and I didn't use to have GPS+Data network=phne crashes. So I went on the thread with all the modems and tried a few. the site http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/2/ tells me that for my S4 i9505 on three UK the latest is I9505XXUEMK9.
All the following I tested on liquidsmooth rom and by reflashing this rom before and or after new modem flash
So I tried both XXUEMK9 and 8 but both are really bad, wifi drops and phone crashes (tried WIFI fix), then I tried I9505XXUEMJ9 without/with wifi fix and it seemed stable for about 5 minutes... then it crashed. This was on new rom flash after flashing moded, just to make sure... and it still crashed.
I used odin to flash all the modems
I use Philz Touch latest 6.something (I was on 5.something at first but changed it just to be sure)
should I try a modem that is not UK specific, is there an international one? <-- although, Im assuming XX means international so this would answer my own question.
Any help or advice is appreciated.
I would still like to know of a good modem for UK Three phone with AOSP rom
thankyou
Just recently installed the Triforcerom 5.4 on the MJA firwmare. Everything works fine but then i realized the HotSpot tether was an issue. It starts up and functions fine, but then 5 to 10 minutes later it timesout. So i went into the timeout menu and set it to never timeout. but the issue still occurs. The rom i used before hand never had an issue like this. I also updated firmware to the new NAE to see if that might fix the issue. was wondering if anyone has had an issue like this and if there is an easy way to fix it quick?
