Alright guys after having a problem with my first Atrix, it was unfixable, but it was okay because I got myself a replacement.

So I got home and plugged it into the Wall Charger for an hour and it charged to 100%.

After that I plugged it into my computer, I was surprised that the phone just shut itself straight off. I ignored it and turned it back on. I then noticed that the phone could not sync to my computer no matter what I did. It doesn't even charge, like my first one. It does however show a solid green led. My first Motorola synced right away when I plugged it into my computer.

Are these phones really this defective? I'm probably going for another phone if I can't fix this one. Any help guys? Nothing was installed on the phone except my blur account. I have Moto Media Link and Helper installed on my Windows.

I got them here.

I did not download the PC Charging Drivers though.

Edit: How is it possible that I get two defectives in a row?
I always talk **** about my iPhone and now I take it all back. Haha. Seems like whenever something goes wrong with my iPhone I can always just hard reset it or restore it and it's good as new. This phone seems unfixable even after factory resets and battery removal trick.

The phone is now showing the same symptoms as my old phone and it's just an matter of time before the battery runs out and the phone is left nonchargeable. The battery is stuck at 90% for some reason and won't go down.

I hate that AT&T doesn't carry any better phones than the Atrix at Bestbuy.

Update 2: Got a second replacement in the same day. Working as intended. For now.
