[Q] Rooted 1.57 to 1.83 - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently rooted my Atrix on 1.57 (with Gingerbreak) and did the webtop mod. I heard about the 1.83 update, so I took the webtop mod off and tried to install the update, yet I get an exclamation point and the update is not able to install. What should I do?

Have you tried flashing the 1.8.3 sbf?

Did you deodex? The update will not work if you did.

I have not tried that. Doesn't that delete all of my memory? Can I flash it over my current 1.57?

How do you deodox? I just updated to 1.57, rooted with gingerbreak, webtop mod, removed the webtop mod and tried to isntall OTA 1.83. And it failed.

Yes, you can flash it over 1.57, and no it doesn't erase anything. However, if you root again using gingerbreak, that WILL delete everything...so back it all up.

I flashed 1.83 sbf and rooted w/ gingerbreak... Didn't delete anything. Actually I take that back, the apps I had downloaded from the Amazon market were deleted, but I think that had more to do with the 1.83 sbf and not gingerbreak.

Hi,
I have deodexed 1.57 in my Atrix. How could go for 1.83.
I tried flashing 1.83 SBF using RSDLite but it failed.
Could someone point me too a post/doc on how to go back to 1.57 factory and do 1.83 OTA

Sbf 1.83 or ota ?

I've been holding off updating. I'm a little confused, I've seen some posts saying its better to do the ota. Does it really matter which way you you update?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Well, I OTAd the update on a rooted 1.57 and had no problems. Just had to run afterupdate.bat again from gladroot after the update to retain root. I think the better question is do you want to be odexed or deodexed. Odexed is good if you want to keep your phone as close to stock as possible and you will get these files from the OTA update. Deodexed is better is you want to do editing, install more themes, etc.
The 1.83 sbf with deodexed files is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1055851
and I don't need to tell you where the OTA update for odexed files is.
I have the 1.83 sbf already thanks though. I'm rooted and on grey blur with webtop mod, so I haven't gotten the ota notice.
I thought retain root doesn't work, so we have to use ginger break instead.

Last night I soft bricked my phone, flashed to 1.26, used gladroot to root, updated to 1.57, ran afterupdate to get root back, OTAd to 1.83, ran afterupdate again and am not running on 1.83 rooted. Gingerbreak scares me with the talk of it possibly formatting your internal sd.
Your not on 1.83? Or is that a typo?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
I'm running Gingerblur version 3.0. I just got the update message for 1.8.3. It will download but not install. I had this issue upgrading to the one before this. Last time I restored my phone back to stock to get it to install. Don't want to do that again. Is it something I'm overlooking?

Yep, I lose the contents of internal SD every time - but with backup, it's much quicker and easier than flashing back to 1.26 and working your way up again. Appears to have no adverse effects - worked fine to restore root after 1.5.7 and again after 1.8.3.
Of course YMMV.

I'm on 1.83 now, I was saying that I had a rooted 1.57 and was able to OTA update to 1.83 with no problems.
And I may end up trying gingerbreak in the future, but I was bricked anyway so I just rebuilt.
I was in the exact same situation. Had to install SBF 1.26 and repeated the hole process. I don't think there's other way to update

Once you have tried ota, rsd-ing might lead to hard brick.

These are some need to know questions before I or anyone else can assist you in your problem.
1) What version are you on!??? 1.2.6, 1.5.7, 1.8.3, 2.3.4??
2) Have you ever unlocked your bootloader?? <---- THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO KNOW!!!
IF YOU HAVE UNLOCKED YOUR BOOTLOADER THEN FLASHING A .SBF WILL RESULT IN A HARDBRICK.
IF YOU HAVE NEVER UNLOCKED YOUR BOOTLOADER THEN THE ONLY WAY TO GET A FRESH INSTALL IS USING A .SBF

OK well this is gonna be easy,
Flash the 1.2.6 ATT US found HERE and upgrade via WiFi updater to 1.5.7 then 1.8.3 then to 2.3.4.
To use RSDlite (or for further details look HERE);
Charge to FULL battery <---- IMPORTANT
Start up the RSDlite program
Turn off phone, Remove SD-card, Remove SIM card and turn back on holding the power button and volume up key until it says "Starting RSD protocol support"
Plug your phone into the usb port and RSDlite should say "Status: Connected…"
Load the 1.2.6 SBF in the RSD and click start.
May take from 5-10 minutes Do NOT pull battery during this time or unplug until it says 100% complete
If you have any other questions please ask here or shoot me a message. Happy Flashing!!
Thx all of you guys, i will try it tonight(in hong kong right [email protected]@so hot!) Hope will be success to 4.5.91!!

That I cannot be a 100% on as I used to install a fresh SBF before an upgrade. But now that we have custom ROM's I do not worry about those things anymore
I would assume yes, just to be on the safe side, and if you do change the boot animation just backup the original so if you do have problems upgrading OTA then you can simply put it back.
Don't forget to hit the Thanks button!

Question about ROM's

I tried to google search this but found nothing. My phone is ROM'ed atm but their hasent been a update for it in a few months. So i want to put a more updated ROM and also because every 12 hours my phone ask me to upgrade to gingerbread. Now the question is in order to add a new ROM can i just install it over the old ROM or do i need to uninstall it. If i need to uninstall it how do i do so? just wipe the phone? Also sorry if this is in the wrong spot cant ask this question in the developer part.
Sbf to 2.3.3 if you want to get anothr rom. Dont ota for an update
Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk
So your saying just install gingerbread, root the phone again and then rom it? So its safe to just install gingerbread without wiping the phone? I have no idea what sbf or ota means so im kinda lost.

Oh sweet thanks ill try this out when i get out of class tonight.
ok so i installed rsd lite and got my phone to stock gingerbread. I rooted with 'MotorolaOneClickRoot_psouza4 and that was ok. I installed bootstrap and when i click install recovery it says Install Failure /data/data/com.tenfar,a4.recovery/files/surunner.sh (Permission denied). What does this mean? I know im rooted since titanium backup is working and superuser is asking permission for stuff.

You don't use RSD, its not a SBF, you download it to your phone, rename it to "update.zip", go into recovery and select "Apply SDCARD:update.zip" or "Apply SDINTERNAL:update.zip" depending on where you saved it. Then you select reboot, and your done!

I bought a X2 off of CL... partial root?

I just picked up a X2 off of CL and it seems to have a partial root (if there is such a thing). It has SuperUser on it but no CWM recovery installed. Where do I go from here? I have tried to do a factory reset and the SU remains there. I would like to get the thing fully rooted with some custom recovery/ROM awesomeness....
There is no such thing. If it has SU then its probably rooted. Look for an app that says system recovery. If you wiped then it probably gone. It needs to be reinstalled. It installs like an APK with options to install recovery and a recovery mode and a charge mode. The recovery can be found in DEV section with any of the rooting guides.

Superuser gets killed if your phone got an over the air (OTA) update from Verizon. Easy to fix, all you need to do is SBF to 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 and use the one click root method to root then install boot strap recovery if you want to install a custom ROM.
Search the development X2 forum for the SBF Tutorial. It will explain step by step instructions.

He speaks the truth. Worked for me
Recommend starting on SBF 2.3.4 and use the OneClickRoot to root it afterwards. Just make sure that after flashing stock 2.3.4 to set the phone from Charge Only to PC Sync and allow debugging (Settings -> Applications -> Development) so OneClick can see your phone.
Recommend installing System Recovery afterwards. System Recovery lets you boot into a CWM recovery mode, and of course, flash unsigned .zips (ROMS) Note: Just a heads up, you can't boot into the tweaked System Recovery unless the USB is plugged in the AC outlet or a car charger. I found that... as a minor speed bumping when getting it to work.
If you are unsure how to use the SBF with RSDLite let us know and we will help you run through that.
SBF 2.3.3 then one click root
I would start off with the SBF for 2.3.3 and then the one click root. The leaked version of 2.3.4 has battery issues still as far as I know.
There is an official 2.3.4, not just the "leaked" Soak Test version.

Downgrading 2.3.5 to 2.3.4...just sbf right?

Hey guys.
I went from 2.3.4 to 2.3.5 a little while go to upgrade to the new eclipse, but zergRush won't root for me. So, I was told to downgrade to 2.3.4 and install the voodoo root keeper app. My question: in downgrading, I just sbf to 2.3.4 on my computer right? Or is there something else I should do?
or root from linux
i use D2X ezSBF with zergrush
worked great after zerg failed in win 7
Sent from my DROID X2 using xda premium
Unfortunately I don't have any Linux systems. So the downgrade is just an SBF correct?
you have system version 1.3.412?
thought I read that 1.3.413 can't go back,
but 1.3.412 I know that's fine, I've done it.
ezSBF is burned on cd, and you boot from cd

thought I read that 1.3.413 can't go back,
but 1.3.412 I know that's fine, I've done it.
ezSBF is burned on cd, and you boot from cd

Sbf on ur PC will be fine. I've done it many times.
I am taskforceZ
I flashed eclipse on 2.3.5 and didnt like the battery drain...cleared data/cache then restored my 2.3.4 backup and had 0 problems. So if you want to save some time and you have a backup use it. If it fails for you then you can sbf but I'm positive it works as I done it a few days ago.

Even tho u restored a backup made on 2.3.4 u are still on the kernel that was installed with the 2.3.5 update.zip if u didn't do a sbf flash
Sbf flashes and OTA(signed update.zip) is the only way we can change our kernel

Hey guys.
I went from 2.3.4 to 2.3.5 a little while go to upgrade to the new eclipse, but zergRush won't root for me. So, I was told to downgrade to 2.3.4 and install the voodoo root keeper app. My question: in downgrading, I just sbf to 2.3.4 on my computer right? Or is there something else I should do?

Zergrush is most likely not working for you because you didn't "extract all" on the zip zergrush comes in
Right click on the zip file for zergrush
Extract all
Then run it and enjoy being rooted
Zergrush will work on 2.3.4&2.3.5(build412)
