Atrix locked up

[bigoldthor]

So this morning, for no reason, it just locked up. It was on, but I wasn't using it at the time and no apps were running.

The green notification light was on, but I couldn't get it to unlock or even get the screen to come in. I tried short and long presses on the power/swipe button, but nothing would happen. The green light would maybe turn off and back on or blink, but the screen would do nothing. Fingerprint swipe didn't work, either. I did a battery pull and now everything works fine.

Anyone else have this happen? Any known issues for random lockups? I've ready about the random reboots and shutdowns, but not about lockups.

TIA

No clue, hadn't experienced that... but all I know is don't let your phone have a random reboot in the middle of customizing Widget Locker. http://forum.androidcentral.com/motorola-atrix/80420-help-played-widgetlocker-phone-wont-come.html

I have, obviously, had the random reboots, as maaaany other users have. Glad a battery pull fixed your device. I'm still trying to figure out wtf to do with mine to hard reset it to factory when it won't even boot past the M: Dual Core logo.


edit: Actually, this appears to be your exact issue - http://www.atrixforums.net/f2/my-atrix-wont-power-up-121/

Thanks for the info, jonneh...

When it hangs on the dual core logo tap the power button (fingerprint reader) and the phone will continue to boot.
