It's really odd.

The Atrix is my first smartphone, I been super excited to get it! Finally got it today.


Well, the battery's a little iffy. It won't charge past 40% on USB. If I do it via AC adapter, it gets to 40% and the screen starts to flash on and off and disconnects itself from the AC adapter.


I updated to the most recent system update, and I don't believe it's changing anything.


I appreciate any help I can get!

For the record here's the topics I checked out:
This guy cleaned off mold. No mold in my case.

This one is unresolved.

This one is unresolved as well.



Well, weirdest thing. I was playing around with it, and set it to windows media sync. It immediately jumped to 50% battery.
I plugged it into the AC adapter, and it charged to 60%!

It only seems to report battery in 10% increments, but I don't know if that's default or not.
