Also do u know if ill still be gettin the oficial updates? Does it matter or no? I jus want to be able to get the latest updates as they come out
I don't know the answer about OTA updates after rooting, but to be honest, I'd be surprised if another OTA update ever happens for the Hero.

Oh ok n also I was readi thru my phone n it shows that what he's doin is instalin a costum rom n wouldn't do erase everythin on my phone?
Yes, installing a custom ROM would erase everything on your phone (although he also instructs you on how to do a nandroid backup of your previous setup). However, if all you want to do is root the phone you can do that without having to do any of the other stuff. Just download, install, and run Universal Androot as instructed in that thread, and you should have root without doing any other changes to the phone or your data.
Unfortunately rooting the T-Mobile G2 Touch isn't as simple as rooting a standard Hero GSM, T-Mobile made it quite difficult. I would suggest following this thread or using this tool
And if you don't install a custom rom or a rooted stock rom, your recovery will be overwritten, and you'll lose root on the first reboot.
The unrooted stock rom overwrites the recovery when rebooted.
Correct me if I'm wrong

Good point, I think you right in which case you will need to install a rooted stock ROM at the very least, which would mean wiping all your data
Sorry, I didn't know the G2 required a different rooting method.
Anyways, on my standard unlocked Hero I did not loose root when rebooting on the stock ROM, although as you said it did overwrite my recovery. I do not know if this is the case on the G2.

T-Mobile did some pretty nasty stuff security-wise compared to the standard GSM Hero so rooting is a bit different. As for what happens on reboot I can't comment, but I would recommend using a custom ROM anyway, something like [email protected]'s MCR is great for someone who just wants it working like stock but with better performance. You should be able to add something like FlyKernel to it for the overclock.

Agreed. Once you go custom, you won't go back.
Guys, I think he's actually talking about T-Mobile G2 as in http://www.gsmarena.com/t_mobile_g2-3518.php, and not T-Mobile G2 Touch (HTC Hero). Notice the system specs in the first post

sucessful tmobile G2 temp root using VISIONary r14 this morning!
I tried ROOT on my new tmobile G2 (GSM) I bought last week. I tried Universal Androot AND z4root and neither worked to get even temp root.
This morning, I used VISIONary r14 and sucessfully gained su root and disabled a few of the branding and blotware apps on MY phone! I still haven't been able to uninstall them completely, but at least they aren't starting automatically on boot. Here's the link that worked:
android.modaco.com/content/software/320350/19-nov-r14-visionary-one-click-root/
these branded apps are WAY annoying! I'm not good with outfits like facebook and twitter having access to all my personal info and data, including fine GPS location!! and I can hardly believe tmobile imbedded these apps as they did. I'm still within my 14-day trial and may still return the phone because of this unless I can be sure I can get these apps OFF my back!
hi guys...
I am kind of a noob....but have been following step by step guides by so many people and have survived this long....but have got so many un answered errors to which no one have given me a proper explanation...

I am planing to fully format my phone so that I restore the sdp file that I moved back to the original place and need to update to gingsoerbread....so that I dont get. the same problem after iI update to gingerbread....so these are questions that iI need to ask to which iI couldn't get answers....some of these may have been posted but senior members pls dont get frustrated with me for asking a noob ques....
1. I need to do a full factory format...if I do so w will it get locked like when I got it in the us...and pls direct me to the place which gives step by step instructions to hard format my phone...and unlock it at the same time...
2. after hard formatting wil I be able to use my bluetooth function...
3. I need to update to ginger bread....for which I need a step by step guide...if some one could pls direct me to the link or thread...pls....i know this is a noob question but I am not able to do so...pls help
4.i have installed so many apps and games that I do not want to lose if I hard format...is there a software like norton ghost for android....which will help me restore the apps games contacts which I previously had....i know titanium backup is one option not sure whether it does the function which I expect it to do...
.pls and I do know about this thread for the noobs where I couldn't find the answer to these questions ....http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1154600

I had nothing but problems out of my wifes atrix after performing the root procedure. I returned it to stock and traded it in on day 29 and got the htc inspire for her instead which we run cm7 on. The atrix is a nice little device out of the box but once i got tinkering with it seemed like one issue after another. My personal phone is an evo3d. Love it!!!! I know this doesnt answer your OP but just wanted to share my frustrations with the atrix. Good luck.

1. Once you are unlocked you stay unlocked
2. I had the same prob before gingerbread and rebooting the phone seamed to help, since gingerbread I have not had an issue with bluetooth
4. Yes TiBU can do this for you. Backup to extsd then after flashing restore from extsd.

thanks wiredpirate for the reply....
so what should I do now....
should I format first or should I unlock my bootloader first to update to gingerbread...
if I format first will I have 4.1.83 version or the one which I had when I first bought the phone....

Depends on what you mean by "format". A Factory reset done on the phone will return you to the stock version of that version, but RSD will return you to the version you flashed.

Depends on how you want to get gingerbread. Either the Official way, where you won't lose your data and won't need to unlock your bootloader BUT YOU CANNOT GO BACK TO FROYO AFTER PERFORMING THE OFFICIAL UPDATE or by flashing custom roms /fastboot images. If you decide to go this way, your bootloader must be unlocked, but you will have the option to go back to froyo.

LOL. "the atrix" eh?
There was NOTHING wrong with your Atrix. It was you. 100%. Undeniable.
Everyone gets the same software from the beginning. Rooting properly doesn't interfere with anything. You most likely used Superone Click.
Plus, first off Evo3d's blow compared to an Atrix, our phones are about 4x more powerful in every way, so don't go repping your Evo3d here. Second, any phone you bought for your wife was not as good as the Atrix, plain and simple.
Another failure. 0/2 bud, nice....
Hi there, Forgive me if there is a thread already for this. But I have a T-Mobile UK Motorola Atrix and i want to reinstall the firmware that came with the phone. I was unable to do a backup of the stock rom and Currently have a Stock French rom on the device. Is there a way to put the original rom on it and lock the bootloader?
Thanks Adam
Ill second this request too.

This is SBF file which will get your mobile to stock and also will lock your bootloader (it's not going to be locked again but it will remove "unlocked" from top left corner).
In order to use sbf files you need to download RDS lite and have moto drivers installed. (If you are already unlocked then you will have all this tools)
This is link to original thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125944
REMEMBER this is an SBF file and it's not the safest way to go back to stock (but the best) and can brick your mobile if your pc is going to stop working/freeze/resboot while applying sbf...
Hope this help
P.S I did go back to stock this way and gave my phone for warranty without any problems.

This will only get you back to stock but you still will have "unlocked" on the top left corner. Just FYI

Thankyou for all your help I have the T-Mobile stock rom back on it now. I had to do a hard reset to make it work though. Just a note to anyone thinking of doing this. Does anyone know how to make the Atrix boot faster? It takes ages on the t-mobile screen. I have rooted it and was thinking of Freezing some parts of the OS but im a bit worried incase it messes up

Android version 2.3.6 and 4.5.141.. so I just have to flash .sfb file using RSD lite..? I've been reading and I don't want to hardbrick my phone..
I wanna make sure to do exactly what I have to.. if it got bricked well wtf but at least I did what I should..!!
Thks
t mobile
i have the t mobile uk 2.3.4 sbf save on pc
I really need the t-mobile uk sbf. How can I get it from you Ashley, can you upload it somewhere? thanks
did you ever upload the stock sbf file in the end because im looking for it aswell and all the links i find are dead :-s
Any help would be great
Hi, Can someone please re-upload the SBF from the start of this thread, I need to remove the unlocked and back to stock.
Thanks
I'll try and do it later this evening, check Sam Cripps Atrix Reboot Project thread at the top of this section, that's where I'll put it.
Done, it`s here http://samcripp.com/files/. I haven`t ever flashed this myself, but it`s straight from moto thro their updater SW so should be intact. I`m sure you`re aware there may be risks involved flashing an SBF, that said, enjoy!
Thanks.

I just performed this on my Atrix 4G that was running 2.3.6 Stock exactly 7 days ago. It was the first time I had ever done anything to my phone since the last AT&T update. I had root before the update, but it was taken away when I applied the update. Since Motorola doesn't want to do a major update for my phone (Boo to them!), I decided to try flashing CM7 Olympus, and now I wish I had done it sooner!
I didn't check the links above, but I followed these instructions to the letter: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1302423
The process made me nervous, but it worked perfectly!
EDIT: Those are the closest instructions I could find to the original ones I had. I found the ones I actually used on Atrix Forums' website. The article is called "[TUT]Unlocking Bootloader and Installing Custom ROMs" (I'm too new to link to an external site due to forum regulations.)
Unlocked same version from ATT
I had to flash 4.1.83 sbf. The regular unlock process. But be careful as it could brick your phone. I experimented and luck was on my side.
Thanks,

Followed those instructions as well. I feel like I am very close to having my phone back to where it needs to be for me to consider the mission a success I am only experiencing an issue adding Google accounts and getting into the android Market. I did a titanium backup restore and got all of my apps back and restored system settings, but Gmail crashes every time I try to open it and the Market opens a white window then goes away without any warning or error info.
I haven't flashed a custom rom so I am still in the stock Gingerbread ROM.
Trying to add a Google account gives me the message "Can't Establish a reliable connection..." If I followed this guide, am I fine to do a hard reset, as that is the only solution I have found online to the Can't Establish connection error?
Original Post Deleted: Oops moment
If your intentions were to flash a custom rom, I would perform a nandroid backup and then flash away following the instructions you've been using.
If you unlocked the bootloader, your phone was probably returned to stock just like performing a hard reset. Google Play (or Market) usually needs a very good connection to run its first update, so if you're not on wifi, connect to that first. If you still have that problem, try clearing the data for that app (from the home screen > Menu > Manage Applications > "Market" > Clear Data)
If you were trying to flash a fruitcake (to return it to stock after flashing a custom ROM), still try clearing the app data and, if that doesn't work, try flashing the fruitcake again.
Well the ****ed up thing is im rooted. N the other ****ed up thing is theres not enough of you still ****ing with G3's so... If i update theres no root... Plus i have to do a lot of shyt to not brick my phone, i advice you all to do the same. Back up all your shyt, on an sd card or your computer because the update will most likely wipe your shyt clean lmao.. Then Use lg flash tool and flash the latest tot available i believe we only got zva, from there you will need to update a bunch of little updates probably like 4 til u get to what ever this new shyt update is.. But heres the problem, hands on activation! No root! Fudge! Totally clue less if we should even do it.. Well me for example i dont have sprint service i actually dont have any service right now im using my phone as a wifi phone but with out activating it n with out root to disable the annoying hands free activation im gonna have to..... Hold up, my mom has sprint if anything ill be the guinny pig n do it first and ill just have to pretend my mom is gonna use my phone n activate it thru her or some shyt.. I just wanna see whats the update so i can report back to yall.. So those of u who are rooted i can guarantee yall finna end up bricking yall phones cuz weve been so desperate for marshmellow n its here n yall not gonna listen to me n unroot n yall gonna get bricked. U CAN NOT UPDATE WITH ROOT DONT BE DESPERATE YOU WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE SORRY GUYS IVE HAD A LONG MESSED UP DAY.. CAVS LOST AND IM FROM CLEVELAND.. SMH I WILL UPDATE YALL ON THIS ASAP
Nope. Nope. Nope. I'm so tired of Sprint's silence on the matter.
https://m.reddit.com/r/LGG3/comments/4nezwp/that_update_for_the_ls990_is_not_marshmallow/
FML you know what squash what i said its overwelming having to loose root. As i stated before on my old post im into hacking now n theres no way im gonna update with no root and loose my Zanti app, root explorer... Hell naw
If it was marshmallow i woulda updated.. But for a security patch they can kiss it
It's ZVE. Still Android 5.0.1 Lollipop. Not sure what it did. Probably a security fix.
I can't find a working download of LG Flash Tool, anyway. I tried to flash the OTA via FlashFire, but it stuck on that I have TWRP. I've been backing up, downloading Zip/DLL, and looking for LG Flash Tool ever since. But my son has the same phone, and he never rooted. So the OTA worked for him.
Give me your email me PM me on here ill send u it

22.47 MB, zip there you go i just used whatstool alot easier to share files with
Ive got flash tool 2014 i have the old flash tool which js mostly what everyone uses. (The one with the megalock.dll) and then i have the new flashtool patched. The way to install it is easy u simply install using the setup and on the old one you after install u go to c:\LG and replace the megalock with yours, easy as cake, with the new lg flashtool you simply replace the exe itself rather than the megalock using the same method. The 2014 i dont think needs any hacking n cracking.. I also put the ls990 dll in there its for sprint model g3 so if thats what u got thats what u use
Oh and also i dont think u can install both new and old flashtools or if u did it go in the same folder n become hell of confusing so just pick new or old .. Doesnt really matter both work
