Yes you can. Working just fine with my atrix. Just look in the atrix development section here on xda for the webtop mod. Root as usual.

New to android and the forms and looking into some info on seven guide. I would post on that page but since im new I can't so I thought I would start here. It shows that Canadian Atrix (OLYLA 0.37.4)is supported, now I have 2.2.2 OLYLA 0.37.23 as a build number. Since my build number is newer can I not use any of the methods posted on his guide. I alreadyhave it rooted with gingerbreak but I was looking to deodex the systm and run grey blur on the phone.
Thanks
Some roms are for the att version only I would go post on one of the roms you want and ask. The developer should be able to point you in the right way.
AT&T ATRIX - VERSION 2.3.4 ROOTED BL UNLOCKED
I know that done roms won't work on bell. Grayblur works adter flashing the smb. I just don't know if my build is supported or not

Bell firmwares are not supported. You can run greyblur on the Frech SBF (2.1.1). It's very easy to get greyblur on a Bell Atrix, unfortunately it means flashing another SBF. It's not such a big deal anymore though because we have a method of getting back to stock Bell if need be. My advice: follow Seven's guide and flash greyblur or gingerblur on your phone. It's much smoother and I found a significant increase in battery life. If you don't like it, you can always find the guide in the general section that explains how to get back to Bell's firmware. It's all very straightforward if you follow the guides to a T. We are lucky to have such helpful members in the Atrix community!

Were is this guide you are talking about to revert back, do you have a link to it. My main thing is the guide from sever says the canadian atrix on build 0.37.4 is supported and im on a higher build 0.37.24. Can I still flash the french sbf to the phone to run greyblur ?
Thanks
Alright,I know this may get my head chewed off,but all the dev stuff here is scrambeled all over the place. It's easier for the ones that has been here since the beginning,coming in new to the atrix,its a little more complicated. Everywhere I read I see everyone saying diferent versions of the atrix shouldn't flash such and such.
Do I unlock bootloader first? Then root,then flash recovery,then install the Rom or kernal I want through cwm?
Sorry if I seem like a noob,but like I said,everything is scrambeled lol. I read the stickies,but the more reading I do,the more confused I come. I'm no noob,I know my way around all this,if i could get a simple yes or no,you won't see anymore noob questions like this from me,ever again.

I am not sure if there are other simpler ways to do this but this way worked for me so here goes: I have an AT&T atrix.
1) - Use RSD Lite to flash the 1.8.3 SBF. Guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991072 I Used the full SBF not service just for a cleaner install. I rooted using GingerBreak: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044765
Link to all SBFs http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125944 get the AT&T 1.8.3 FULL
2) - Unlock your bootloader. Guide here: http://briefmobile.com/how-to-unlock-the-atrix-4g-bootloader
3) - Install CWM recovery using this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1138541
4) - Use this flashable zip of 2.3.4: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1141013
5) - OPTIONAL BUT RECOMMENDED Install Navalynt's MOD: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1142674 Download the v1.9 one without webtop fix.
Again I apologize if there is an easier/simpler way to do this but this worked for me and everything is great right now If you need any further assistance just ask.
Atrix guides are pretty much all over the place. When I modded/themed my friends Xperia X10 it was very easy. All the guides were stickied from the intro all the way to the other bits n pieces of info. I pretty much stayed on that page. I didn't even had to use the search function...lol

It is really a good instruction and link for the beginner. But you don't have to install all mod stuff. It depends on what you need. So far, I don't unlock bootloader and flash to new ROM. I did root, webtop mod and enabled sideload. It is good enough for me.

Wow,thanks bro. I didn't expect to be greeted with such welcome. I know how annoying a new comer can be. I started at the very beginning with the intercept,and I remember it was hard for the new comers to understand what was going on because everything had just started. Again,thanks bro. I don't have my atrix yet,but will soon. Ill hit the thanks button once I'm on my pc

Hey I am confused too coming from a x10 too. Lol I am taking it slow. If I recall the easiest method to root I think is the fast method if you can find a tortourial.

Search. It's a button, and I can confirm... it works.
Check the stickies in the dev section, everything is laid out right there for u, and one click works flawlessly ; )

There is also a sticky right here in general forum made by moonshadow.
Easy as pie.
And we don't have a sbf that gives us root anyway. If u sbf at all u r going to need to use the rooting methods again to regain root

Let's be clear. It's called Pete's Motorola Root Tools. ...and hyperlinks are your friend.
And just to clear some things up, SBFing has nothing to do with rooting. You don't SBF to root or root to SBF. One does not require the other.
SBFing means putting your phone back to a particular stock install which makes it no longer rooted. Hence, if you SBF to a stock image (2.2.2, 2.3.3, 2.3.4), you'll lose any root privileges you had and you'll have to re-root your phone.
SBFing requires having an application called RSDLite as well as a particular SBF image (Froyo - 2.2.2, Gingerbread - 2.3.3 or 2.3.4).
Rooting requires running an application such as Pete's Motorola Tools that allows you to have root access to your phone. This means you are unlocking the phone so you can perform various other functions, such as running Titanium Backup so you can backup not only applications, but the data associated with said applications. It also allows you to make other tweaks under the hood to help make your phone run better, such as running Zepplinrox's turbo charger scripts, adding the init.d hack to allow you to run various startup scripts when you reboot and last, but not least, it also allows you to flash ROMs on the phone.
Hopefully that clears some things up for you.
