I just rooted my Atrix after updating to the newly relased Gingerbread 2.3.4. I reflashed the latest recovery and when i reboot to recovery from ROM Manager, I get stuck at a screen that says failed to boot 2, starting RSD or something along those lines.... Anyone have this problem?
Yes same problem... looking for an answer!

Did you update to official OTA 2.3.4? In that case you are no longer Unlocked.

I am running 2.2.2 Froyo with 1.77 build.
I unlocked and rooted via Gingerbreak.
I went into CWM Recovery, erased all cache and flashed Alien Rom v3 and immediately flashed the Alien theme over it (I think that is where I made my booboo). The Rom appeared to load perfectly yet when the phone restarted the Moto logo animation appeared to run then the screen would go dark. This process repeats every few seconds non stop.
I can get into Android Recovery, RSD, everything. I tried flashing the 1.8.3 sbf through RS Lite 5.3.1 and while it said "PASS" it still hangs at the Moto animation.
I have no idea what to do. I think I can get out of it as I have done A LOT of searching through the forums and google but I am terrible with CMD.
Any helpful and/or useful advice?

Thanks for the thread. However it looks like I need CWM Recovery in order to flash a fruitcake? I cant get the phone to boot past animation so this wont work...
Also I didnt create backups

Are you unlocked and flashed cwm through fastboot, or did you use the system recovery app?

System recovery app. I can access Androids recovery (obviously) but not many options...
Did you unlock your bootloader?
I ran into the same issue the first time I tried to flash Alien. Since you're flashing Alien, I assume your bootloader is unlocked (As it's required for Alien).
If you have an unlocked bootloader, do this:
EDITED: Apparently, I'm a new user and can't post links. Go to the address bar and replace the number with 1163342
Use Fastboot to flash the boot.img and the system.img files. This will give you Gingerbread/Motoblur like it comes out of the box. (It's a start!)
Thanks for the link. Will try when I get home. If I can just get past cmd...
Hi all,
I recently installed 'recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace-fix.zip' (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18178563&postcount=13) via 3e recovery, I copied the file to sdcard and renamed it to update.zip.
install went fine, pressed power and home button gets stuck on samsung wih website logo.
restarted the phone using power button and boots fine to its desktop. Thinking since cwm5 has been installed properly, I knew there would be an icon on apps drawer, run from clockwork recovery, now the phone is more officially stucked on the samsung logo i mentioned above.
any workarounds?
by the way, i just want to update from froyo to gingerbread at least.
thanks in advance.
by reading your post i assume your still on froyo.
so havent u read properly? the cwm 5.x is only for gingerbread. and if u want to upgrade from froyo to gingerbread, cwm wont do u any good either. use odin instead to flash to stock gingerbread rom
If ur in froyo upgrade to gingerbread using Odin .. then install clockwork mod :thumbup:

alright, will use stock gingerbread via odin
Hello ... I hava an atrix 4g with 2.3.6 OTA update and Locked Bootloader .. I've rooted the phone and installed bootstrap recovery successfully and made a backup for official rom ...
The problem is after Flashing Ginger Blur Rom my phone stuck at "Dual Core motorola Screen " and as i read, flashing Official SBF File may cause hardbrick .. So is there any solution to enter Boot Strap recovery Using Fastboot and make a restore or anything else Safe ?
Thanks for this Professional Forum ....
Get the correct Kernel zip file, to flash over CWM.
Thanks you ... but my problem is that I cant access CWM Recovery because i Have a Locked Boot loader and there is no way to launch bootstrap recovery and reboot to CWM
You can use Android Recovery (3e) by default, HOLD down volume and shows fastboot than, Recovery. Its a stock.
Ok ... but what should I do with stock recovery I tried to wipe but the device still stuck and also i cant flash any rom using the stock recovery
You can flash stock kernel another way. By Android Recovery, with CWM.

Read OP boot loader is locked. He can't install cwm without unlocking boot loader. And I don't think flashing a stock kernel will help bring back the phone to stock.

You should have not flashed ginger blur with the locked boot loader…ill search around and look for a solution. Are you OK with unlocking your boot loader?
<edit> flashing the sbf should fix the issue. Make sure you DON'T flash sbf lower than 2.3.6 otherwise you'll brick your phone.

Do you have the correct recovery? Anything except ROM managers should work. If you have the correct recovery did you factory reset? Did you wipe everything?
You say you flashed 2.3.5? Was that the electrify one? Since the photon doesn't have one. You can't flash anything via stock recovery. If you flashed 2.3.5 SBF you are now permanently locked, so say goodbye to custom ROMs forever.

I'm running on a stock rooted phone, and AT&T tells me that I have a software update available. As I tried to update, my phone restarts and it just goes straight to the TWRP screen. Any idea of what to do?
You need stock recovery to flash update.

Easy way if you have TWRP is to flash the Guru_Reset and during install choose stock recovery and say no to Root
