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'm having wifi issues with my Nexus. It started after flashing MIUI. I was using TWRP to flash, it took a while for the google logo to disappear and to get to the Xiaomi bootlogo. After it finally booted, the wifi was stuck to "turning on", but never ultimately firing up(couldn't get it to turn on nor off, even having turning it off). I've also noticed that I have the same EXACT issue with CyanogenMod. I completely returned to stock, i've relocked the bootloader and everything. I tried CM installer today and i'm rooted again with CM, but still I have the same exact issues as before. I don't have these issues with some other roms such as stock, official Omnirom and such, i wouldn't think it would be exactly a hardware issue, since it works just fine with certain roms. Would anyone have an idea why my phone is having this issue? It wasn't always this way. Specifically, I haven't been having issues with 4.4 roms. Does anyone think it could be something related to bootloader, or something?

i have a similar problem... i rooted my nexus and flashed a custom rom (PACman) when it boots wifi is disabled, also bluetooth doesnt work neither any sounds, no music, no speaker, nothing, so i flashed Paranoid android (both based on 4.3) and i had the same problem
so then i flashed stock, everything ok, then CrDroid (based en 4.4) everything ok, then OmniRom (Based on 4.4) everything ok too...
i posted it here and got no replies, hope someone could help
Yes, right now I'm running an unofficial CM 11, and no issues. I wonder if something needs to be downgraded, in order for things to be okay again. I would still like the option to be able to run 4.2/4.3 based roms. Maybe I could try flashing to stock 4.2 or 4.3, then reroot, and test my results

What radio/baseband version are you using?
Hi, I'm using AOKP last nightly builds and since 2013-10-18 Wi-Fi started to stuck, settings ui errors and other problems. So I just tried franko kernel with official AOKP releases and Wi-Fi now is working fine. But i've faced skype problems). After 4 minutes it hangs and i need to restart my phone.
I have had this problem for..6 months (?) now.
During this period I did not use my rooted (and SlimKat flashed) device, but yesterday I did and it worked, for one day.
Then it - abruptly, without any sign or warning - software rebooted itself (I was browsing) and voilà, wifi turning on-problem..again.
Anyone here who can help me ?
I would really appreciate any help!
Really..

You could be more specific about the "wifi turning on-problem".
Anyway, it's most likely a software issue, either rom or kernel. Flash the latest stock image on your N7 and test it for a few days.
Hi everyone need some help with my sprint G2 LS980 model.
I was using cloudy G3 ROM 1.2 with Dorimanx kernel. I never used the wifi toggle in the status bar drop down menu, it was always ON since I installed the ROM, one fine day my brother used my phone for a day and thinking that keeping WiFi ON would drain more battery, he used the toggle. since then i started facing issues related to WiFi. when he tried turning it on later in the day, the toggle got unresponsive and then in settings, the WiFi button just said "turning on" forever. re-flashing the kernel helped once. WiFi turned on and it connected to already saved home network. but the next morning when I got up, rebooted the phone once and it was stuck at turning on.
For 2 days, I lived without any WiFi then during the weekend decided to try a few things to solve it. Initially using the wifi toggle was known to create issues in cloudy G3 1.2 so I flashed omni rom and also the 4.2.2(ZVA firmware) radio, everything worked except for wifi, there too it was stuck at turning ON. Later I flashed the ZVC tot file using the LG flash tool so phone was completely on stock 4.4.2 LG firmware but in that too WiFi is stuck at turning ON. Also factory reset after flashing tot didnt help. Also took the latest ZVD OTA and rooted again using ioroot but didn't help
any help will be appreciated guys!!
regards,
Vrishi
help anyone? can it be due to a loose connector for the wifi module/antenna on the motherboard?

bump guys!! any help???
Hi, did you find a solution for that issue???
im having the same one !
Hi All
I have an issue with my S5 Plus (G901F) a few days ago I rooted, TWRP and installed the stable MM ROM from Tkkg1994 and have been happily using my phone. This morning while I was opening the Gmail app the device rebooted and when it came back up I noticed WiFi was not on. Pressing the quick menu WiFi button turns it green for a second before going back to disabled. Likewise going to into settings - WFi and using the slider does not work either, it just goes back to off.
So far, I have wiped ART/Dalvik, reflashed BL and Modem, factory reset. Wiped the whole device and redid everything including diffrerent ROM's on the same BL/Modem (CPE1) and have the same result.
Everything else works, just not WiFi, I should also add I have tried with and without the SD card and disabling/enabling other radios (GPS/BT) in different combos has not worked either.
Has anyone come across this and can they suggest next steps?
I'm currently downloading the stock ROM that came with my phone to see if that helps.
Cheers
Stock ROM did not help.
Did you find solution? I have recently started to have same issue with same device.

Probably not. The S5 seems to suffer a lot by such issues. I bought mine 3 months ago in a shop. It worked for about 2 months very well. Then all of the sudden it became hot in my pocket so i had to quickly remove the battery. After this the device suffered by ocessional reboots. Nothing helped. Even trying to reflash the stock firmware by trying several Pit´s.
Finally got a replacement as obviously either the RAM or the CPU got defective. The other phone lasted for one week as the wifi module got defective there. Nothing helped either. Now it´s my 3th S5. This weekend my flashlight and camera stopped working. Fortunally got this fixed by reflashing the stock firmware.
Honestly I like the phone but it seems to be quite buggy. Never got such problems with my old S4 and am thinking about going back to the older device.
