I have A 1.83 at&T ATRIX. The signal level for USA baseband motorola phones in spain is low and si get high battery drain.
I also have a defy, with the defy i can easily switch between different basebands without the needing of flashing.
Is there any possible way to flash uk or france baseband in AT&T atrix?? Can I flash a full european stock rom in my defy?
I find really annoying having some features removed, I already enabled sideloading but it's weird not being able to switch to 2g only mode within the menus.

Hi ppl,
Let me tell u my mobile's history.
BELL STOCK => FRENCH RETAIL => T-MOBILE => FLASHED SBF AND UNLOCKED BOOT-LOADER (EVERY THING WENT FINE EXCEPT RAM ISSUE) => FRENCH RETAIL => ORANGE UK.
Now my question is which Gingerbread update fits my profile, and atrix is my primary phone so cant flash any experimental thingi on (not that i like experiments just want a clean phone with gingerbread)
Any thoughts ???
Cant help unfortunately but very interested in your uk o2 rom.did you hack the bootloader to get this?I have an orange uk (sim unlocked ) phone and was wondering if there will be a worldwide non branded gingerbread release.Oh and it would be nice if it could be installed the legit way.I know i ask too much.Just out of interest which rom did you find had the least bloat?ie stupid.non essential apps?thanks

Motorola Atrix, Bootloader Unlocked.
Hi to all,
I have bought an AT&T branded MB860 unlocked-SIM and unlocked-Bootloader. I use this phone in Europe with the CherryBlur v1.4d (shipped rooted and flashed - don't know the origins or the method used) and although I have read literally 200 pages it's been difficult just to figured out my choices in ROM selection. I feel comfortable with CherryBlur but I want to try some more. Up till now the only thing I undestand is to avoid sbf flashing especially previous stock roms, and avoid incompatible kernels and radios.
To cut a long story short:
-Should I search only for Orange France based ROMs? (Orange UK?)
-I have an international phone (because I operate it in Europe) or an ATT phone (because it was initially ATT branded)?
thanx!
If it's ATT branded it's att phone, no matter where you use it.

it's a MB860 (opposite to ME860) so can I flash alien or other ATT based ROMs and still remain operational in european networks?
it's the radio that allows your phone to operate with the local provider, not the ROM, per se. The ROMs will come with a radio, but you can flash a different radio after loading the ROM (well, obviously not every radio is gonna work on every ROM) - just search for 'radio' in the Atrix Android Development section.
I'm using the ATT Atrix in the UK on CM7, and I've had no problems!
I use my att atrix with att roms in spain. If unsure flash faux's kernel also which works in any atrix

Hello, the thing is that I have a Motorola Atrix 4G from Claro, Nicaragua with Froyo. Claro doesn't have released the official GB update. So I was wondering, is there any other way to update to GB? The phone is locked, I just can used with Claro network, and I don't want to pay to unlock it. Will a custom rom totally lock the phone?
Thank you!
Generally It shoud not .
update
Hi there, i agree the update should not simlock your phone to a specific network again, i have a Desire Hd that was originally on the Orange uk network, i currently use the vodafone uk network and have a had at least 12 different custom roms each having completely wiped the phone before install. hope this helps.
Hello, I recently acquired a motorla atrix 3g (Dominican Republic), the phone is currently at android version 2.2.2 and I would like to upgrade to Gingerbread but when I try to find updates from the phone it points that the phone is up to date, this is since the carrier (Claro Dominicana) has not yet released GB for this phone. I would like to know the best method to do upgrade to GB preferably without rooting the device.
Oscar.
Unlock the bootloader, get a recovery, flash a rom
Hello,
Currently I have an imported unlocked phone from France 1232.2109.1242.1001 and I was wondering if there is any downside to flashing a different region rom from 1232.5951.1249.100*.
Do they allow english and support the sim unlock?
I live in Australia and I'm on Telstra, but I really don't mind losing the 4G capability for an updated rom. Since 4G isn't really supported everywhere and is a battery killer. My phone is a rm-821 model
Should I just bite the bullet and flash stock AUS rom and wait? Or will the new roms work?
Thanks

I personally flashed the latest unbranded AUS ROM over my 920 and Im going to stick with that ROM gets updated on Navifirm or released OTA.
The only ROM's available with the latest update seems to be some North African carriers, Belgium, O2 (Europe) and Orange (Europe) plus the American model RM-820 which wont work on our handsets. I would wait if I were you. Im not sure if there will be any problems with selecting a different carrier unless it stops certain frequencies from working that Telstra require.. eg. 850MHz for 3G/H+ and 1800MHz for LTE/4G. I doubt that would be an issue though.
If you do flash a new one, can you keep us updated on how well the ROM works?
