Well before Mr. Clown jumps on and closes your thread, did you try to look at the thread about 4 posts up called
International House of Pudding?
just a thought
Post in Q&A next time, you will get hammered for posting in wrong section and possibly infraction if you do it to many times, I believe..

Did you try flashing the unlock sbf first with RSD Lite?
It's painful how unhelpful people are around here.
Did you already update to 2.3.4 over the Motorola servers? I thought I remember people saying that you're unable to unlock the bootloader on the final release build of GB :<

well you should try and flash Download ATT 2.3.4 pudding+root here through RSDLite 5.3.1 link
if that does not work you should try looking at
Guide for beginners

Ummm I believe that I have provided helpful and informative information. Why recreate someone else guide's when it works and is already posted?

You can still unlock, you will just have a soft brick that will fix when you issue the unlock commands. You just have to make sure that you use the fruitcakes through CWM if you need to go to an earlier build or else you will hard brick.
Here, since you're in such a rush, take a look at this:

[Q] no dataplan due to screw-up...

Hi all,
Some days ago I was playing with my atrix, and the result eventually was that I don't have internet connectivity via 4g anymore...
It must have been one of two:
* Start ubuntu.sh AS ROOT!!!
* Start apt-get AS ROOT!!!
The options I gave to apt-get I cannot remember, but I cannot imagine I would break much with that actually... It's clear they ****ed around with it so better to keep hands off...
Anyways, I want to reinstall the complete phone, but I don't want to get a custom rom. Trying to reset to factory defaults resets but then gives an error for booting recovery, which I modified for rom manager once...
So does anyone have an idea how I can get back to the default rom?
Thanks.
Regards,
Geert
RSS flash to stock Tom, unlocked bootloader. Then rest is to you.
Hi Ciloteille,
Thanks for your reply, but could you send me some links or something?
I'm quite a newbie so "RSS flash to stock Tom, unlocked bootloader." unfortunately doesn't say me much, and a quick google didn explain much also..

I believe that was classic auto correct. Its probably supposed to be "RSD flash to stock ROM, unlocked bootloader". But as post above says, read the noob guide for more info.

Need help from someone with TWRP/CWM

Can some one willing to help with TWRP and/or CWM PM me. I need someone to run a flashable zip for me. I have not unlocked my bootloader yet.
Thanks in advance.

First of all, I'm sure no one with this phone has CWM, that being said why would anyone flash something for you without you explaining what they flashing.

First of all, if you can't help the community don't bother with your snide remarks. With that said anyone can open up ANY flash able zip and see what it does and flashes. If you had done this you would notice it doesn't flash anything.
Well, him wanting someone to PM him will PROBABLY be the way he would explain what he is wanting to be flashed to be honest. And I don't see a point in thanking in advance myself but my opinion doesn't and shouldn't matter to anyone here LoL so neither does yours. Your post is as useless as him Thanking In Advance HaHa, either way he is trying to be polite and your post is uncalled for and rude.

root guide?

Ok I would of thought the guide to rooting the hox+ would of been on a sticky thread. As it is not i went searching but have so far come up blank. I am very new to android as i have been stuck in the windows world for quite some time now. If anyone could point me in the right direction that would be great. Or am i being a real idiot and it should be a case of going to the htc website unlocking the bootloader and flashing a custom rom? If so does anyone have a simple guide to flashing a rom and any idea of the most stable that still has beats etc. Thank you.

Need stock firmware

Im in need of the stock sprint 4.5.1A-1_SUN-254_13 firmware that I can flash using RSDlite.
Yes I have searched for it.
No I havent found anything I can use.
Yes, I will be extremely grateful and hit the thanks button if you help me.
No, I will not read your reply telling me I don't need it/shouldn't use it, cant unlock or root, that it sucks, or telling me I should search for it.
I need it...I know I need it...I would really appreciate the help of someone who is better at this than me. Thank you.

thank you for the reply. Unfortunately no. i think i saw this one earlier. Maybe Im doing it wrong but i think i need an SBF file to use RSDlite. I didnt see one in here, and when i tried to let RSD unzip and flash it it failed. That may be a little beyond my expertise, I know just enough to be dangerous. Although, if i can unzip and flash the boot, system, recovery...etc files through fastboot and adb this may work. ive done that on other phones. Thanks again.
That file is for flashing in recovery.
Check the stickies to find sbf.
But there's no sprint 254 only one for the electrify.
Also,
RSD will gives you an error at the end, pull battery out replace boot up.
Good luck.
