I only know enough to get me in trouble. I rooted, then got the adeo rom on my Atrix 4 G but now have received the update which I would like to update to. I know that I did the adeo rom correctly because it gives the options to reboot and recovery. I don't have superuser on it anymore so I guess that means I am no longer rooted? I have tried to search for the answer to my own question but I have not had much luck.
I am currently running:
Android version 2.2.1,
System version 4.1.26.MB860
Kernel Version 2.6.32.9
Please let me know if you can help.
flash 1.2.6 sbf

I am running motorola software update and everytime I try I get there is no software update at this time. I want to re-install the offical motorola atrix att update but seem unable to. My att atrix is rooted and is running the stock rom.
is your phone from at&t? as far as I know, there's no recent update since 2.3.4 was released.
Yeah what are you talking about? It sounds like you are on stock already, just rooted.
Sent from my CM7 Atrix 4G
Why do you want to install the latest again if you are currently running it, which it appears you are if there is no update available?
If you want to just reinstall your stock ROM, and you are already on the latest ROM, you cannot do this through update. You will have to flash the latest ROM (which would be your current version) via other means such as RSDLite and a SBF, or via fastboot per the following link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1163342
Link above is for AT&T device.
It is adviseable to NOT flash a SBF though.
Simple search and some reading will give you all the information you need, but it sounds like you probably have no experience or you wouldn't be asking this, so I would say to be very careful and/or not do anything with your phone if stock is what you want.
Hello XDA community,
So I need help getting my atrix back to its original state. I bought the Atrix when it first came out, and I rooted it right away. Well I found out that wasn't such a great idea because the first root had some problems(For some reason when I gave my the atrix to a family member and took his free upgrade it will no longer let me send texts), I should have waited a month for the fixed root. So I need help on how I can get rid of the root, and get back my original ROM. I think I have a backup of the phone when I first started and here are my current atrix specs:
Current build number: 4.1.2.6
Android version: 2.2.1
Baseband version: N_01.77.05P
Webtop version: OSHWT_U1_4.257.14
Kernel: 2.6.32.9
Current Rom: AdeoInstallerv0.1
Sorry if I am getting something mixed up, kinda a noob at all of this.

If you have not unlocked the bootloader and installed a custom ROM, you just need to unroot it. Try using Pete's Motorola Root Tools to unroot.

Thanks.... But I do have a custom ROM installed, I said it was AdeoInstallerv0.1 and I need to know how to get rid of that. It was the first release for the Atrix and its no longer around because of the problems it had. The reason I haven't just gotten rid of it with a backup is because the people who made the first it messed it up some how and I don't want to have a chance of bricking my phone while removing it.
Can I install Clockwork for that ROM to get rid of it?
If I understand this correctly:
1. Adeo was from the times when the bootloader was NOT yet unlocked, which means you still have a LOCKED bootloader.
2. It only works on STOCK 4.1.2.6.
3. In that case, you have to flash stock 4.1.2.6 sbf to return to stock.
I spent my day reading all the threads about rooting the Razr and upgrading to ICS, but with that much information, I am a little confused.
First I rooted my phone using the Motofail Solution:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342567
Then, and instaled the ClockworkMod using Razr Bootstrapper App:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347767
Now I want to upgrade my phone to ICS, but the tutorials that I found says that the version of ICS are for one specific version of phone or need a specifIc soluction to flash (like RSD lite)
So, my questions are:
1) Did I really need to upgrade for 2.3.6 before upgrade to ICS. Why?
2) Do someone knows a ROM to upgrade to 2.3.6 and other to upgrade to ICS trough ClockworkMod, that works with my phone version (651.73.250.XT910.Latam.en.01) :fingers-crossed:
3) Is there a way to flash a RSD litle fastboot file on linux?

1)
yes, you need to do. ICS is based on the 2.3.6 ROM files via md5 checksums of your current system. this prevents you from flashing some kind of ROM that would brick your whole phone.
2)
i'm not sure which ROM you could choose to do that, but maybe get some nude Retail 2.3.5 ROM... with a branded kind you will not be able to find much / any custom ROM.
just check this to get a working firmware ROM.
why don't you just upgrade to official 2.3.6 and afterwards to official ICS?
3)
man, i don't know... i'm windows user... but just ask google?
ps: official OTA's don't need clockwordmod
The firmware is the answer.
Thanks, Sh4itan for the attention,
That is what I could figure out.
1) The upgrade for 2.3.6 has a firmware on it, so, that´s why I had to upgrade for 2.3.6 before ICS.
2) My phone was a Latam.en.01 version, but I instaled a Latam.br version and worked just fine .
3) I used the RSD solution because I was more confident using a tested solution. So, I still don't know any RSD solution for Linux.

Just download the LATAM ICS Fastboot files and flash them via RSD Lite,It's really that simple.
Those fastboot files are linked at the development section here,use the search bar.

There is a utiluty, in the development section, for linux that you can use to flash .173. But if you have adb installed on your machine you can just flash all the .img through terminal. I beleve the code is /fastboot flash system system.img/ ?fastboot flash boot boot.img/ ect.
Hey all,
I haven't updated my MoPho since I got it, and was wondering what the benefits would be if I were to update to some of the stuff we have available now. Back when I got my phone, you couldn't change the boot loader without losing 4G.
Currently, I basically just have a rooted MoPho with System version: 45.3.5.MB855.Sprint.en.US
I also noticed in the MoPho Android Development subforum that there are some ICS and Jellybean CyanogenMods available.
Would I be able to update to System version: 45.3.7.MB855.Sprint.en.US safely and still be able to flash to a CyanogenMod? (If not, can I update to 45.3.6?)
If I can flash to a CyanogenMod, would you suggest I flash to C9 or C10? Is there are particular poster's mod I should use?
Thanks guys.
Edit: Was looking at the !!!LOOK HERE FIRST!!!! thread, I noticed I am not sure what Kernal I am running. I assume I'd have to update this as well? Where would I check what kernal I have?
Unlocking the boot loader unfortunately will still kill 4g, so if you make use of 4g and feel its necessary, you won't want to unlock. Also, if you have taken the most recent over the air update from moto (check in about phone and see if android version is 2.3.5) you won't be able to unlock. If you don't need 4g and are on 2.3.4, then unlocking and installing CM will unlock so much more potential of your phone it'll blow your mind. To install CM, you'll need to do the following:
1) Unlock your boot loader
2) Install CWM recovery
3) Install cyanogenmod or another rom
There are howtos for each of these all around the forum. As well as stepbystep videos on YouTube by qbking77. If you get hung up somewhere well help you out.
Hey people, I just bought a new Atrix a week ago. It came with "4.4.20.MB860.O2.en.DE" (fw 2.2.2)rom. I found on the internet that it should be possible to update to 2.3.4. But when I try to do the OTA update it says that my system is up to date. So, Is it possible to update my phone to 2.3.4? How? I found a rom called "1FF-olympus_emara-user-2.3.4-4.5.2A-74_OLE-31-release-keys-signed-rtdach.sbf" but Im aware of flashing it with RSD, is there some other way to do that?
PS: I have not roted or unlocked bootloader my Atrix yet..
Thanks everyone!

If you want to upgrade i would recommend to unlock the bootloader and flash some GB based rom like Nottachtrix 1.3.1, those ones are the stock rom but enhaced I'm running right now Nottachtrix because i want everything working.
Otherwise you can get Neutrino, it's an excellent rom too.
About the sbf with RSD, you need to flash the correct sbf otherwise you will get the "failed to boot", so if you are not sure if it is for your phone, don't do it, take the safe way.
Im not sure pretty much about anything since all tutorials, files, etc.. are made for 2.3.4.. I found this post about rooting the Atrix. Should it work? And another stupid questions. Custom ROMs are installed using CWM recovery right? And is it possible to make a backup of my actual rom for applying waranty in the future? And about that sbf im pretty sure that it should work, but I want to hear that from someone that already did that. I just do not want to brick my phone after week of using..
Thanks! M.
