i bought myself an AT&T atrix previously. However, Lately my country Malaysia launched Moto Atrix. I hope to get a stock Malaysian Version rom.
is it possible?
thanks.
no not possible, an ATT Atrix cannot be flashed with a foreign build, It may be possible to flash the boot.img and system.img from a Malaysian rom to your atrix if u unlock the bootloader, however there will probably be incompatibilities and bugs if u do so. Best bet is to just unlock the bootloader and load kenneth's release of gingerbread 2.3.4
No idea why you'd want to flash a malaysian rom when ATT has BL unlock
ops.... My Mistake.
i tot it will be unlocked to all Atrix.
then i think i will start my journey with unlock the bootloader 1st.
thanks bro~

Hi guys I have just bought a Motorloa Atrix off ebay that comes unlocked but it is the UK orange model. I have a couple of questions regarding the firmware.
1. Do I have to use the Orange firmware updates if I want to officialy update the phone (for example when the gingerbread update comes out)
2. If it is the case that I do have to use the Orange firmware will it then re-lock my phone back to orange.
3. Is there any way of me installing a debranded firmware on the the phone without bricking it?
Any help would be much appreciated.

1. Yes you do!
2.No it will not!
3. Of course there is! Check my thread to Unlock your bootloader http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1302423
Then head over to the atrix developer forum and choose a ROM to download. I personally recommend Aura or Darkside for starters. But if you like stock android without the Motorola stuff Cyanogenmod is great!
If I took the latest rom update would it relock my sim? I am using t-mobile and found Streak_407_20707_14.pkg 2.3.3 official update from dell.
Just don't wanna update the rom to find out I got to get the sim unlocked again, so thought I'd ask.
No. Once unlocked, no ROM upgrades (or even downgrades) will lock the Streak.
Cool thanks.
Hi guys!
Thanks in advance for your help on this matter!
I have been patiently waiting for the official ICS update to arrive for my SE NEO (MT15) since way back when. I know O2 publicly announced they weren't going to bother updating but does anyone know if the Orange UK (now EE) will ever update this phone? Its SI is 1253-7641 if that is any help? Sony are no longer updating their thread of SI numbers so all might be lost in the change from SE to Sony and from Orange to EE!!
I have looked at doing this manually but am worried that as my phone is network locked I might brick it. Also in order to use custom ROMs there seems to be some touch-point modification which worries me too! (I might be wrong on these things).
Thanks again for your time!
1st thing you need to Unlock it from the Network, then unlock the boot loader (optional), & then Install the custom Rom whatever ICS ROM you like or even stock one.

Doesn't network unlock require a testpoint procedure? I know bootloader does. I am very hesitant to fiddle with hardware like that.
If information on whether or not Orange (EE) are going to ever produce an update I might wait until my contract runs out in a couple of months and get a new phone!
If you just want to use stock fw, simply flash it with falshtool, no need for SIM unlock or bootloader unlock.
..I was already told by a friend in xda group that if I again flash a stock rom in my sm-900p phone which I got unlocked for international GSM use (using from India) , it won't get locked again ...with all due respect to the friend who affirmed me already that it won't get locked ,can anyone else confirm that to me please ? I am not able to dare to flash the stock rom....since two days I am just waiting to take that step..presently I am using darkwolf rom but I want to flash with stock rom so that bootloader and modem gets updated and then on that version,I will flash this rom again ..that's my plan
It will not relock for international use. If it does for some reason, you can use Galaxy Tools to unlock again, assuming you root. But if it was originally unlocked either officially with Sprint or via root + Galaxy Tools, then it won't relock. If you were in the US, you would have to change some other settings to re-enable domestic unlock but international sticks.
Hi
Is it posiible to flash us international firmware in locked tracfone moto g play phone.If yes can this unlock the phone to accept others sim cards.
thank you

If you can unlock the OEM bootloader you should be able to install the RETUS stock rom image. You're more likely to have issues when flashing other phone carrier rom versions (or channels), and if the image you're installing has an older security patch than what's currently installed.
