Hi There
I was using GingerBlur on my Atrix until I decided to go ahead and try out CherryBlur.
I downloaded the MEGA pack as suggested by the developer, booted into CWM recovery, "Installed zip from SD card".
After about 2-3 minutes, it said: Installation Successful.
From the menu options, I chose, Reboot.
From then on, I cant boot my phone. It just says, "Failed To Boot 4" and goes into RSD mode.
I cant get it to fastboot or anything.
Question:
Which SBF do I flash now? I heard flashing too old an SBF can hard brick my phone because apparently later versions of Android set a fuse somewhere on the phone?
Could please someone help me by telling WHICH sbf will save me here?

Hi all, first time poster here.
I need some help with my phone. I was trying to update my phone from build 347 which it came with, to build 351. I went with the method where you go into fastboot and flash the 351 recovery image onto the phone and then download and rename the update.pkg onto my sd card.
So now I start the phone up in recovery mode and choose the option to update via sd card. It goes through the whole process of verifying and installing. The phone restarts and asks if I would like to restore/recover my phone to 351, not sure if this is what's supposed to happen. I go ahead and it does it's thing. The phone reboots and now it hangs on the Dell logo so I pull the battery and restart. It tells me it's going to "start emergency recovery copy..." and I guess it tries to recover back to 347 because that's what it says.
I've gone through that about three times now. I try to go into fastboot and flash the 351 recovery.img again but now when I type the command, it gives me the error Remote: partition not found.
How do I get my phone up and running again?? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
edit: went and did a factory reset and now am able to flash recover via fastboot again. Still no luck starting the phone back up.
I was in the same situation. Had to install streakdroid to get my phone back.

Thanks, that's what I'm trying right now....
Hello!
I own an Atrix which is rooted on stock froyo 2.2.2 from Brazilian carrier Claro.
I tried to install CWM with Rom Manager but after my device rebooted I got the Failed to Boot 2 error message, so I flashed to bootloader with IHOP_bell.sbf (didn't unlock it) and it booted again but now the phone only recognizes 373mb of ram and I cant enter Android Recovery, it shows the Failed to Boot 2 error message again.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks for your time!
Fixed.
If you have a similar issue after trying to install CWM with Rom Manager:
(YOU WILL LOSE ALL YOUR DATA)
1. Acquire a full sbf of the rom you have installed.
2. Download RSDLite 5.5.
4. Open RSDLite 5.5, click "..." and select your sbf.
5. With a full charge, plug your phone in and reboot your phone holding volume up.
6. Wait for RSDLite to recognize it.
7. Click start and wait.
Everything should be fine now
At this point is good to mention CWM is not to blame for this AFAIK since I can install it from the APK just fine. Rom Manager was the one who screwed up big time.
I cant get it to boot in recovery(CWM) It comes up a big list of RSD BP Tools all that in a single page in white text when i try to enter recovery or any mode. And i cant get the RSD Lite drivers to install!! I already have used RSD lite 2 days ago with my phone. I managed to get phone into RSD mode once but it still wouldnt show up under the actual RSD Lite program, and it came up saying it failed to install drivers. It fails to install the driver "NS Flash Sunfire" and ive looked around and cant seem to find it anywhere.. I can get the phone into RSD mode fine, but it wont boot to CWM recovery, apparently something went AWOL. Tell me how i can get my photon back please?!
try removing all your motorola drivers and reinstalling them from yay 4 juggs link. you should be able to flash the sbf from his thread (in rsd mode) and be back in business.
Didnt even think of that.. i already had the 5.21 drivers installed, but sure enough did what you said and im flashing back to stock sbf right now. THANK YOU!
OK, so i just flashed 1FF-sunfire-user-2.3.4-4.5.1A-1_SUN-198_6-CM-release-keys-signed-Sprint-US and now im stuck in a bootloop of the dual core screen.. Any ideas..? I know its not latest SBF, but the link for latest was dead.. So i just used this one i had on my desktop already. Anything im missing here?
EDIT: Oh yeah, the flash went through fine and said completed, and when i boot into recovery its back to stock recovery of android triangle and my bootloader menu system is how it should be again. Im just stuck in a boot loop.. Can i go ahead and like unlock bootloader and install CWM and get back on CM7 or will i most likely still be in a bootloop even after that..? Any insight would be great

you may need to factory wipe to get it to boot up... are you stuck on the dual core or the sprint now screen? it may be a bad flash as well - did it reboot by itself and such?
Im at the Dual core screen, i reflashed same sbf and its still doing same thing. ONE time it boot through the sprint now boot logo stuff, then just fell back into same old loop of just the dual core boot animation/screen. How can i factory reset it..? It rebooted right after it installed(never successfully into OS though) then RSDLite told me to manually power up phone, so i battery pulled and powered up to just have it go into moto dual core boot screen loop
Ok sweet i just unlocked bootloader and installed CWM and was able to restore to my CM7 backup fine! Im not activated atm, going to have to call sprint i guess.. But everything else looks to be working!!
Things went from bad to worst, I fixed my market update and had the utlities on the device i needed to i tryed flashing the Neutrino Rom.
After it was done it rebooted and said "failed to boot 2 starting rsd".
So I downloaded RSD Lite and found the unlock SBF which I applied. Now I can get into the FastBoot menu's and go to Android Recovery and try to do the back to stock option, it says it completes then reboots...
Then it just sits and sits and sits on the motorola Dual core logo.
Can someone please help me here. I cant seem to find any of my backups i made with system recovery or rom manager. I also didnt load RomRacers Recovery (which i just now noticed)
Any help is greatly appreciated.
So, did you unlock the bootloader before trying to flash the ROM?
Does it say "Unlocked" at the boot logo now?
Get back into fastboot and flash romracer's recovery and then try to mount the storage and get another rom on there.

i unlocked the bootloader after the update failed (i panicked) and yes it does say unlocked at the top now
Well, you mentioned you can get into fastboot so that's a start. You can try to flash a proper recovery and try to boot into recovery and see if you can mount the storage, or if you have a card reader you can just put a ROM on your sd card and then flash. If you can't get into recovery but you can get into fastboot you can flash a rom that way. You'll have to search for the procedure but I'm almost certain it can be done. If all else fails, you can install the unlocked "Full" SBF through RSD Lite, but it is not really recommended but should work.

Thanks so much. I got radracers on there and reflashed the neutrino rom again. Everything appears to be working. Now to just figure out the rest.
Thanks again.
Look tke the sd card and load the rom and google apps. Then go and fastboot wipe and re install the rom and try to boot honestly it just sounds like you got a corrupted rom
Hello All I am stuck in a soft brick I believe. I was in rom toolbox and tried to change my gps icon and the start up boot screen and it send the phone in to a bunch of force closes. Either way I am running 2.3.6 on 4.5.141 ATT. I am able to get to the recovery screen and I have already wiped user data and did the format from the recovery screen and that didn't help. With fast boot I did a wipe command which showed successful and then rebooted and I am still stuck on the dual core moto screen. So I have now I am following this tutorial [HOW TO] Use RSD Lite to Flash a SBF File - Motorola Atrix I have downloaded all of the drivers and files. I power on the device and put it in fast boot mode and it says starting fastboot protocol support. My device model shows up as fastboot port #1 usb and status connected. nothing in device properties. I get to the c drive where i located the file and hit start and it says "failed flashing process. Unable to retrieve interface handle. (0x7027) phone connected. result fail. obviously. any help would be appreciated. Would a good idea to be just copy an update zip to an sd card and install from the recovery. sorry i'm a noob in a little over my head. thanks in advance

I would try flashing the latest Atrix-CWM-based recovery, then either FruitCake (2.3.4 is stable) or NottachTrix's ROM via recovery. before flashing, however, wipe cache/dalvik cache, and factory data/reset.
