Just purchased the Atrix HD yesterday and when standing only 10 feet away from my router it constantly connects and disconnects. So far this has been the only issue for me. Any hacks yet for better wi-fi strength?

i dont know if its called att wifi app or att hotspot app but i disabled att hotspot app and after that i never had any problem with wifi!! there is a Starbucks real close to my house and they have att hotspot so when ever i drive around it would connect to att hotspot and i would have hard time connecting to my home wifi!! just go to your apps option inside settings find att hotspot and disable it since you cannot uninstall this app!! it might help!!:good:

I had same problem. The wifi turns off 2 seconds after I turn the wifi on. I did factory reset. After the reset, it seems it solve the problem but I had other issues so I did an exchange since it was with in 14 days of the purchase. I don't have that problem with the new HD.
Try doing factory reset....

Factory reset performed.. issue still exists. Maybe my 2nd AHD will be better.

I'm having the exact same problem. Mine will connect for a period of time then just starts a wifi boot loop, as I would describe it. It tries to connect endlessly and won't unless I'm right next to the router. A factory reset didn't fix it either.

Same thing happened to me till I disabled att wifi app plus a few other. Then rebooted. It is annoying though :-\

Hmm. Switching wifi frequency from auto to 2.4 only seems to have fixed it.

I never accepted the at&t wifi app agreement, so it was never running, but still had the same issue. It seems better now that its forced to 2.4ghz. I still have range issues. my Atrix 4G would show two bars of signal where the Atrix HD connects and disconnects constantly. Its like i have to be sitting right in front of the router to stay connected.

I wasn't having any issues last night after switching to 2.4 only. But when I woke up it was disconnected and wouldn't connect again til I was right by the router. Hopefully a software update fixes this issue.

I had this problem with the Atrix 2. Resetting my router solved the problem.

Wow, that's cool. Didn't move, switched to 2.4 only and my signal strength doubled and my speed seems noticeably better.
Now if this helps from oovoo and Skype constantly disconnecting life will be good. To be fair the inspire is also disconnecting at random too.
I had this problem as well - it dropped if my wi-fi was 2 bars or so, and it seemed to fluctuate. Tried the 2.4 only mode and it seemed to help a little, but I still lost connection frequently at only 2 bars. It would drop and look like wi-fi restarted and then connect again at 3 bars.
Disable AT&T Smart Wifi.

I took the phone back to costco and got a new one. The phone rep connected the new phone to his wifi. I walked to the other side of the warehouse and never lost connection. Came home and the phone has not disconnected once. Must have been a hardware issue.

I did have AT&T Smart Wifi disabled too.
So I can't give you an exact time of how long this has gone on, but it's been a few weeks probably. Every time I try to update my profile or PRL it gives me an error saying it can't be updated. Haven't had this problem before. I don't think it's sprints network, cause I haven't had problems like this before... Anyone have any ideas? I'm s-off running the latest d3rp rom.

You can try updating on wifi. Second choice is to go to settings, mobile data. Then click on network mode. Change from lte/cdma to cdma only. Update profile and prl. Switch back to lte/cdma.

Would help to know the exact error you are getting.
I can't remember the exact error, but it worked over wifi. Thank you.

It sounds like you have a bad network connection honestly...network vision upgrades, phone issue, settings issue remains tbd but if it worked on wifi but not on network i would say there is a network issue.

Is anyone else finding that when using location based wifi, when re entering a saved location it doesn't turn wifi back on I have to turn wifi back on manually, then sometimes I have to select the wifi network and select connect. It's starting to become a bit of a pain.

If it's your home network, have you tried to reboot the router? Or to assign a static IP-address to it - one of the earlier Xperias had the same problem until a later update.

I haven't tried that yet, will reboot the router first and go from there. When I had the XZ it used to do it then, but not as much as this does.

Well I used to use WiFi - Matic on my HTC One which worked perfectly, so will go back to that if the inbuilt one still plays up.

Hi all, just got the M8 and it's a great piece of hardware.
But I seem to be having an issue receiving multimedia messages. I was just wondering if anybody else was having an issue with MMSing.
I'm planning on calling Sprint and seeing what they can do for me tomorrow.

Check your mms settings. Is it set to 5mb size? I couldn't send set to that size either, but setting it to 2mb works.

Sorry, should have specified that I'm on the stock ROM. The max message size is 2mb. At least that's what I'm seeing in the settings.

Bummer, sorry I'm no help then.
I also had that problem. I called sprint. We went thru the usual checks. I ended up getting transfered to 2nd level support. I was getting the error " general failure...........". I ended up resetting the phone to stock(hard reset) to clear the problem. Something in the restore hosed up the phone.

Yes. Everything worked perfectly. I guess the M8 does not like to have messages restored.
I was having problems and the solution I found is
##72786# and then menu then reset. After reboot I ran activation.

This has happened on a few VZW phones and the only way to fix is to flash a stock rom/reactivate. So... yeah.

I am not rooted if that makes a difference.
So I would need to factory reset and then get with Verizon to reactivate the SIM?

Go into settings then SMS then access point names. I use T-Mobile and for some reason metropcs was selected. Try to select the AP that fits your carrier

APNs are set by the SIM on Verizon, this is neither an option nor needed.
The APN setting that needs to be changed is within google hangouts

I wasn't using Hangouts, but I tried it. The APN was already set to VZW (there were a dozen APNs in settings, but all the same). I tried it on LTE, but still no dice.

It has to deal with the activation, i'm sure. This has happened to me once or twice on my N2 and S3. I had to reflash back to a completely stock FW, reactivate, and flash back. No clue how it works, but it sounds like it happens when activating the phone. If this happens, there might not be a fix since there is no VZW FW/activation/etc. I spent ages playing in APN and cell settings (the hidden one in dialer.)
Try this, send a text, let it hang, and then toggle LTE off and then back to on again. If it sends, this issue is most likely very similar to those other issues on Samsung.
