I'm using rom cherryblur 1.1
Is there a safe way to return phone back to stock yo receive the ota official gb upgrade?
I heard flashing with sbf then applying ota will cause brick.....?
Any help I would appreciate

I think i might have been one of the dumb ones to do the .zip flash of the BETA #3 gingerbread update. I searched and noticed the only way to go back to 2.2 was to unlock 1st. the question is when the official moto 2.3.4 comes out will i be able to update to that version without any issues via OTA?
I know some maybe running soak versions which may prevent them from reverting back to 2.2 as well. So do you guys think moto or the devs will figure a way for those that didn't root/unlocked before doing the update.zip to start recieving OTAs?
If ur on kens beta going back to stock will work and stock is the way you'll get the ota until it comes out as an sbf to flash

I'm not on kens. i did the update i believe before kens was available. is there a way to go through kens route since i'm already on the stock 2.3.4?
If you flashed the stock OTA that was leaked, you risk bricking when flashing back.
Moto's OTA is designed to prevent backwards flashing.
I believe they found a way through pudding look on kens roms thread and there should be a link on how ti do so if nit there go to the calling all hardbricks post and do the steps there to prevent bricking

what if i just want to get the offcial ota when it is released. would i still be in luck or still need to unlock and root?
I have a rooted Atrix on Official at&t 2.3.4 OTA.
bootloader locked
webtop unavailable.
I read you can flash gingerbread on top of this OTA? is this true?
can I use rsd to flash back to a clean copy of gingerbread or will I hard brick?
please point me to the correct thread....
Me too
I want to know too.. Except mine is unlocked and rooted on Stock GB
Can I "Clean Format" GB
If you're on 2.3.4 OTA then you're on gingerbread. What are you wanting to do?

SO if I flash the leaked 2.3.4 on top of my OTA 2.3.4 with RSD it wont brick? I'm guessing itll just reinstall?
Edit: All I want to know is if I can flash the leaked version on top of the OTA withou bricking so this way I can unlock the BL and get some ROMS....I just dont want to end up using RSD to flash 2.3.4 and end up with a paper weight
My brother had his friend put gingerblu on his phone a while back and now he is getting g the ota for 2.3 notice if he installs that will everything be okay or what does he need to do

It wont install. You gotta flash back to stock for the ota gingerbread
If I wanted to go back to 2.3.3 where can I find those files. Or can i just flash the ruu for 2.3.3?

Depends, did you take the OTA or did you install a custom rom to get to 2.3.4. If you took the OTA and you weren't rooted before I don't know if you can go back. The HTC unlocker method of rooting will not let you install a kernel so I don't believe you will be able to flash a 2.3.3 rom since it will require an compatible kernel.
If your on 2.3.4 taking the ota then there is no way to go back to 2.3.3

Then u should be good to go. Just remember when you take the ruu method you will loose everything

so recently i rooted my phone and installed gingerblur onto it and absolutley hated it, so i used sbf flash to flash stock tmobile uk firmware back onto the phone then did a factory reset to get everything back to stock...
what i want to know is can i do an ota update or install an official update from motorola website using there updater tool, without it bricking my phone?
thanks
Yes the brick is related to unlocking and using sbfs
