hallo..
I have been working on my atrix for 8 hours trying to flash 2.3.4 rom .. anyway, i'm stock at flashing tenfar cwm
when i use cdm after unzipping the last update and run the command : fastboot flash recovery recovery-en-0630-1029.img .. i keep getting the same error again and again which is "fastboot" isnot recognized as internal or external command :S
if someone can help me solve this problem i would appreciate it << i'm sure i'm doing or forgatting something stupied >> thank u in advance
are you running that command from the directory your fastboot.exe files are in?
Where do you put your fastboot file and where do you put your recovery image?
Let's say you have them in the same folder, in C:\flash.
Then when you go to Run\cmd, you need to do CD\ C:\flash
Then you can type in the name of the fastboot file, I think it is recommended to use moto-flashboot, so the command wil be moto-fastboot.exe flash recovery ... ... ...
You most likely download the wrong fastboot file u pronounced got the one for linux. Go look for the on e for windows also make sure you are cd the file.

here is the guide i followed step by step. took me about an hour or so give or take start to finish. i unlocked the BL and flashed everything including KP's 2.3.4 beta 4.5.
if you follow this walkthrough exactly as posted, you shouldnt have any issues.

You already have unlocked bootloader, so BE CAREFULLY DO NOT RSD ANY DOWNGRADE FROM MOTO in this case 2.1.3
The best way is Download the FULL SBF 2.1.3 and extract the partitions from the SBF and just moto-fastboot to the phone... I will check and will post details
Ok if Nothing else work as for example command "moto-fastboot -w"
You can try this one (need a Windows PC)
1. Make a new folder (for example c:\atrix)
2. Dowload and unzip this file:
http://www.filesonic.com/file/14467...16_A004_M001_ HWolympus_1g_Service1FF.sbf.gz
You will end after unzipped with a file as follow put it inside of the new folder:
OLYEM_U4_2.1.3_SIGNED_UCAOLYPORTFR_P016_A004_M001_%20%20HWolympus_1g_Service1FF.sbf
3. Download this file:
http://rapidshare.com/files/453821014/MotoAndroidDepacker.zip
and unzipped on the same new folder
4. Now run MotoAndroidDepacker.exe
5. Menu->Open File->OLYEM_U4_2.1.3_SIGNED_UCAOLYPORTFR_P016_A004_M001_%20%20HWolympus_1g_Service1FF.sbf
6. Menu->Split To FOlder
7. You will end with a new folder with a long name as follow:
OLYEM_U4_2.1.3_SIGNED_UCAOLYPORTFR_P016_A004_M001_%20%20HWolympus_1g_Service1FF-extracted
8. Now rename the following files as follow:
CG55.smg -> recovery.img
CG56.smg -> boot.img
CG57.smg -> system.img
CG58.smg -> webtop.img
CG62.smg -> preinstall.img
9. Move those files to the new folder C:\atrix
10. Download this file (moto-fastboot) and unzip it to the new folder C:\atrix
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=635568&d=1308927194
12. Disconect the USB form the phone, Turn off the Phone and now Press VOL down while you turn on the phone until show up "unlocked" tag and under this "fastboot" tag, now press once VOL up and it will show up a tag that it said "Starting fastboot.....", now connect the phone to the PC
11. Now open a DOS windows (cmd.exe) and go to the foler C:\atrix and run the following commands:
moto-fastboot flash boot boot.img
moto-fastboot flash system system.img
and finally
moto-fastboot -w
moto-fastboot reboot
and Done it must boot without any problem

I am having the same problem. The bootloader is not unlocked. I was rooted and running Gingerblur 3.5. When I attempted to upgrade to alien, everything went awry. I followed the commands above (intended for unlocked, I know, but Im getting desperate) and recieved the following error "failed to boot 2, starting RSD mode"
Please help!
Post my issue yesterday the thread was named bootloop from hell. I am trying to use fastboot to flash a new recovery so i can wipe everything since someone said the problem was from my old recovery. I have all the sdk tools installed and the paths set for the commands. but every command i run it says is not specified. Im hoping someone can help me get this goin so i can actually intiate an adb session.
I am on hboot 1.4 soff but i have no recovery now since i flashed the pg86img but it falied to unzip the system step. Someone also told me to use cwm instead of twrp but i cant find the zip all of them are disk images. If i can find the zip to rename pg86img and go into recovery and run virus wipe tool im hoping that will work to avoid fastboot. any help is much appreciated thanks in advance.
Get the files fastboot and the adb in one folder an name the folder 3vorootnew
Then go to cmd an type cd\3vorootnew
Then type fast boot or adb comand

ok so I've been asking questions for the pat two days and hopefully this is the last time, So In the past day I've managed to get S-oFF and im happy now I'm installing a rom news one xxx rls thingo, ok so I have a problem / no knowledge on how to install the boot.img here are the instructions quoted from his thread
*Installation of boot.img**
-download boot.img
-copy to pc to your fastboot directory
-cd to the directory
-type these commands
-"fastboot flash boot boot.img"
I don't understand any of it except for download boot img.
I come from the droid 1 days where all I had to do was boot up clockwork mod, backup your current rom, and install your new rom and there it was done like dinner (<<--- lol how gay) and we didn't have to deal with a computer at all but now here we are with instructions that I don't know how to deal with if someone could plz tell me a step by step tutorial here for a "IDK what im doing" because I don't know what tools I need where is my fastboot directory on my PC and stuff like this, I would greatly appreciate any help
if you are s-off, you don't have to flash the boot.img, the rom automatically flashed it. That is instructions for s-on.

oh sick thank you sir
on my phone i tried updating to the Mean bean and of course i didnt read it all i used the flash apk app to get the rom wiped data all that installed fined boot animation came up and evey thing and i found out you need to be on latest firm ware and wich im not and my phone did not boot and i have nan droid back up is there a way to flash a new kernel in adb or no ? please helpp im s-on 1.15 and yes i still can go into recovery
You need to be S-Off to get the updated firmware. Without S-Off you would need to RUU and take the OTA to get the firmware. Read here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671577&highlight=ruu
To flash kernels while S-On download from Market "Flash image GUI" extract the "boot.img" file and push it in with this app. Then immediately go to recovery and flash the ROM zip.

All you've got to do is fast boot the kernel, the firmware is recommended not a necessity
Mean bean has s-on kernel installer so maybe that's not the issue

fast boot
This looks long, buts its just the initial setup too
If you aren't familiar with doing things from fastboot, chances are the first thing you are going to need to do is properly setup the folders to carry out the fastboot flash command. This setup is going to take the most time and after you have it all set up its very quick to do after that.
Setting up ADB:
1) Download the mini-SDK here and move it to something like C:\Android\platform-tools
http://androidforums.com/attachment...90-adb-guide-updated-12-05-2011-sdk-tools.zip
It contains:
adb.exe - Windows adb utility
fastboot.exe - Windows fastboot utility
fastboot-windows.exe - Windows fastboot utility
AdbWinApi.dll - adb link library for Windows
AdbWinUsbApi.dll - adb link library for Windows
These files will be used to push the boot.img (contains the kernel) from a ROM to your phone via fastboot.
2) Download your ROM and open it,
3) Copy the boot.img from the ROM to the same folder as the mini SDK you've downloaded.
4)Plug your phone into the computer via USB and power the phone off. Then press volume down + Power to get to fastboot
5)Once there, we need to open up a command prompt in the location where your sdk-tools are. If you are in windows 7 you can just shift+right click to select "open command prompt from here"
If you don't have win 7 you can manually move to the file location with the command cd to change directory.
6)Once you are in the correct directory you just type in
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
and hit enter
7)reboot
or use this choose the JB only version http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1917106
