Pardon me but.. - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Doesn't having a locked bootloader only mean we can't permanently flash a recovery?
I mean on the moto defy the bootloader is encrypted as well but you can still restore nandroids as roms. They even have an htc sense port fully working on it. So I don't see what's stopping devs from doing something similar.
Just asking to get some information. Thank you.

I very much doubt you will be able to buy a dev/test phone from any authorized retailer.
I don't see why anyone would get a dev/test phone unless it somehow, accidentally got into a batch of Retail phones...........
Chances are if you don't already know then it isn't a dev phone.

Vanilla android

Is there any way to.strip it down to where u get a vanilla android experience . I was watching G2x video on phonedog and damn I had no idea the Tegra 2 was capable of that. I am running greyblur and its nowhere near what I saw

Not until the bootloader is unlocked will we be able to load anything else onto the Atrix
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
That locked bootloader is stabbing my Atrix with no end in sight....
I agree I hope they crack this bootloader wide open, and I like the greyblur rom but I want more out of this phone.

i dont trust lg for solid products or support for some reason.
If you can I'd suggest contacting Motorola support about this to let them know that there are lots of people wanting to be able to do this. See this thread for info:

[Q] do I need to have unlocked bootloader?

do I need to have an unlocked bootloader to flash a custom rom? Or can I use koush's moto a4 bootstrap? And if that's all I need, then with all the ATRIX roms that say to use cwm, can I just use the bootstrap since I can't get cwm? Also what can I and can't I flash using the bootstrap?

Sprint zipfile

Can someone put together a sprint zipfile of all the system files to connect to 3g/4g? So after I flash a rom I can flash over...
Sent from my MB855 using XDA Premium App
Hmm... looks like this has to be in the Q&A section too. No, there is no update zip of sprint files that will allow you to gain 4G with an unlocked bootloader on the photon. You have to flash your rom and then re-lock your bootloader to gain 4G. You will still have your ROM and locked bootloader.
Read the forum threads and post in the correct forum please.
Not what I was asking lol I alway knew that... I ment if I were to install a diffrnt carrier rom...

How to I gain perm root now?

I just unlocked my vigor via htcdev.com and now I want to gain perm root, any step by step instructions? Thanks in advance
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA App
I did the one click root method after i unlocked bootloader
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA App
What exactly does this mean?
Now that we are able to unlock, and permaroot, can we put custom roms on it?
I guess what a noob like me is asking is:
What is the relationship between S-off/on and unlocked bootloaders?
Yea I tried that but it didn't work, did I do something wrong?

best way is to flash the amon ra image and that has a built in root function
Where is this great tool called one click root? Is it just a .zip I flash or what?
I used zergrush V3 and it worked perfectly. Search XDA and you'll find it.
