Hi...Can somebody help me to get back to Stock Att firmware from SBF OLYFUR_1.2.6.
Thanks...
you probably meant OLYFR_1.2.6, which is the stock att firmware of the first bought phones, probably now they are shipped with 1.8.3 already.

Go here first to learn how to use RSDlite http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13604217&postcount=2
Then go here to get an SBF:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125944 I recommend getting the FULL 1.57 then let it OTA to 1.83, I had some issues with the FULL 1.83
BE ABSOLUTELY SURE you get ATT SBF. Release sbf---1.26 ---1st OTA was 1.57 then the last OTA was 1.83
Happy Flashing

OP, follow these instructions to get where you want to be. Flashing to 4.1.26 is sufficient. You don't need to update to 4.1.57 or 4.1.83 unless you plan on keeping the phone.

Although this is my first post, I have been reading hundreds of threads on this site for months now...
I know this post should be in the developer-related forums but being a newbie I am not allowed to post in that section.
My question is can that SBF be flashed over GingerBlur...here is what I am running with a LOCKED bootloader.
Version.4.1.83.MB860.ATT.en.US
Android 2.2.2
Baseband N_01.77.15P
Kernel 2.63.9-00007-g527fe10
Build GingerBlur 4
Please respond ASAP I just OTA Gingerbread onto my girlfriend's Atrix because she doesn't want to fool around with all this and am DYING to get my hands on a rooted, unlocked Gingerbread Atrix!
At least if you want an unlock bootloader the only option so far for an AT&T unit is flashing pudding no matter what version you have (1.83 or 2.3.4/4.5.91)

Seems like this question is asked a lot and I want to know the "straight" answer too. Would downgrading to deodexed 1.8.3 via recovery from Gingerblur be enough in order to flash SBF gingerbread and unlock? Or should I SBF back to an old AT&T version and update to 1.8.3 before going to Gingerbread? Thanks.

Exactly!! And can it be done over GingerBlur or CherryBlur as I have seen asked on here for the past day or so consistently with no concrete answers.

If you're on 1.8.3 (I don't care what P-ROM you have installed), you can simply flash the above SBF to obtain GB w/o the consequence of not being able to revert to 1.8.3

Love it. It's clean, quick, and reliable.
So, using that link will it unlock the bootloader too? P-ROM would be gingerblur correct? I am sorry, I am kind of new to the Atrix scene. Gingerblur was really simple, but the rest is kind of out of my league at the moment.

That's right, it will unlock your bootloader if you were on 1.8.3.
Make sure you have a full battery before flashing!
Charged that baby all night, today was the day I got Gingerbread. I just wanted to make sure everything is in order before flashing.
Just finished installing it, holy crap. Every app is saved. It seems I'm still rooting too. How do I tell if I'm unlocked?
edit: Ah, nevermind I'm not rooted. Guess thats something I'm going to have to do now.
H,
I want to use my MacBook Pro to update my atria to gingerbread. My phone is already rooted with 1.8.3. What version of gingerbread do i need and how do I do it? I do not want to hard brick my phone.
Thanks

I suggest you take your pick of modified ROMs our devs have developed
Ninja
CherryBlur
RedPill
Kenn's Rom with Extras
Couple other news ones have popped up recently, but i'd give them some time.
If you want stock, I suggest flashing the 4.5.91 SBF WITH pudding and root already built in.
I'm trying to use sbf_flash to flash to gingerbread, but it is failing with checksum errors. any suggestions?

Not familiar with sbf_flash, but which SBF gingerbread are you trying to flash?
I am trying to flash pudding. Does the phone need to be unlocked first? How can I tell if it is unlocked?

Pudding will unlock your phone if you read through the 1st post and follow instructions.
Ok, it took a while, but i get it now.

Hey people I really need someone here to just point me in the right direction.I've read up but its pretty confusin because noone talks about the official OTA much.
I upgraded from .83 to the 2.3.4 OTA
My bootloader is unlocked too EDIt it's Locked
I have root though.
I've read that if I went straight to OTA I'm screwed as far as using RSD
CAn I use RSD to flash a 2.3.4 ROM or stock sbf?
Will it brick my phone?
I want to just flash something other than this OTA which doesnt let me do really anything can someone at least post a link that can help me with how to flash over the OTA? please any help will be appreciated!!! thanks

Most likely yes. Since you already have the pudding bootloader, it'll be fine. But not every rom works the same, so you gonna take extra care especially when you want to downgrade to lower versions.
I have the at&t OTA that was released a few days ago so you're saying I can use RSD to flash the 2.3.4 leak build?
EDIt my bootloader is Locked im sorry root is the onlything I have I apologize

Well isn't what unlocked bootloaders and recovery are for? Should be able to flash your 2.3.4 alien rom and boot/shutdown and flash the faux kernel. That's if your AT&T.
Besides I hear RSD after bootloader and it's update is a big no no. Especially since many bricks posts "hhhhhheeeeelllllpppp meeee im bricked!?"
Stock OTA 2.3.4/4.5.91 AT&T with just ROOT right NO bootloader UNLOCK?
You just can RSD same 2.3.4/4.5.91 sbf so far YOU CAN NOT RSD ANY MOTO DOWNGRADE FOR EXAMPLE 1.26 1.57 1.83
If you decide to unlock your bootloader you can flash by CWM or moto-fastboot almost anything from dev for ATRIX
so the deal here is to unlock the bootloader

Just curious.
Has anyone come across a hack for the US Cellular 2.3.5 sbf to allow a flash back to the Sprint sbf?
This would be fantabulous since it was just announced that the Photon will be getting the ICS update in a few months. I'd like to get mine back to stock before that update comes out.
Thanks!

The US Cellular Electrify will get it at the same time if not sooner.

But I don't want the Electrify sbf. I need it to be back to Sprint. I'm trying to get the OS back to the Sprint Photon sbf so that I can do the OTA to 4.0 when it becomes available.
If you are rooted and unlocked, you might see a downloadable flashable version of the official rom in here shortly after it comes out.

That'st the problem. I can't be unlocked with the Electrify 2.3.5 sbf. It's impossible. I have successfully rooted it but can't install a ROM from recovery. Keeps giving an error. Probably because the bootloader is locked and can't be unlocked.
This is exactly the reason why when I had the 2.3.5 Electrify SBF that I didnt make it a public post.
To this day I still haven't posted it.
People PM'd me for it so they could use it, hack it, whatever, and I warned them that it would lock the phone down.. Of course once I let it out, other people spread it....
Lesson learned I guess.

I only flashed it in desperation after I had already jacked my bootloader. Before I flashed this sbf, I tried fastboot flashing every img file out there. None worked then I tried flashing sbf file after file and this is the only one that took without erroring out. I didn't load it on purpose to hack or modify it.
I just want my bootloader unlocked so that I can have at least a fighting chance to get one of Sprint's sbf's flashed.
check your pm's
I have the same issue!! I need to get my phone back to Sprint as well!!! I have the USC 2.3.5
I need the stock uscc 2.3.5 sbf because i am rooted and did the ota and now its partially rooted somehow and im having an issue with my phone speaker and need to send it in under warranty. If anyone could please help id owe you my life. Thanks in advance.
Honestly we should start a bounty for this. I would certainly pay to have this thing unlocked so that I can get back to my regularly scheduled programming.

If you had backup made with bootstrap cwm then root with torpedo and put back bootstrap then install recovery and restore the backup, that's what I did.

wat
There's an update?
Since you're on Alien/rooted/unlocked BL I would recommend against taking any OTA update. It would most likely fail anyway.
EDIT- I just noticed you're on 4.5.91, you must be seeing the notifications for the 4.5.141 update. You had me all excited that there was some other update out.
Thanks Stewart- poor reading comprehension on my part.
That answers it.
No!
S Do not update, there are multiple posts of people bricking their phone attempting to update, if you continually get requests to update you can freeze updater with titanium backup. If you want to update with newer firmware I would suggest taking a look at the many newer gb roms or even a move to cm7 if you really want something a bit different, as far as I am aware there aren't going to be any more updates to Alien.
I'm on a stock 4.5.141 myself, with a few enhancements. I had an unlocked bootloader on 4.5.91, updated using the 4.5.141 SBF, and could re-unlock the bootloader. Then CWM and start flashing zips (like root).
I'm still waiting with bated breath for an ICS leak.

I would flash your current version sbf through rsd lite then OTA update your phone then unlock it again.

Dont do this. You're unlocked, treat RSD as if it doesnt exist. If I were you, I'd try to find either a .141 fruitcake (CWM flashable versions of RSD files) or switch to a .141 based rom if you want to stick with blur.

I have done what I said I would and it did not brick my device. There is a risk if you flash the wrong sbf or downgrade.

Most don't reccomend this however as too many possible things can go wrong. Also is alot more work to fix if something goes wrong. A flashable fruitcake or rom is more simple to do in the first place and if something does go wrong is easier to fix. Also the roms available kick butt over the stock rom.
