Ok, I've seriously messed it up this time.. I think I partitioned the internal drive by accident or whatever it was I pressed while thinking I knew what I was pressing (sunlight on the screen..) , Now at boot it says
"PwrReason: SW_AP_Reset
No OS detected, going to RSD Mode in 5 seconds"
and it gives me the options to choose everything from RSD to BP Tools. I try to choose Android Recovery or Boot Android & it gives Magic Value Mismatch: Reading ODM fuse: 1
I can only pull battery and choose either RSD or Fastboot. I suppose I cannot flash an SBF in RSD because then it's definitely be bricked..
WTF have I done..?!?!
Flashed Romracers's latest CWM. It's now stuck at "Entering Android Recovery Mode"..
I'm thinking of flashing the 1.2.6 sbf and start from there, ain't sure if it will brick it though..

Don't flash a earlier sbf if you were unlocked on 2.3.4... you will surely be bricked then. If you were on 2.3.4, then you could try flashing the gingerbread sbf again. Have you tried fastboot -w?

Flashing the gingerbread .sbf will be fine as long as yer on GINGERBREAD, any earlier .sbf isn't recommended.

Ow, I thought it was only the 1.8.3 that was a problem.
Am downloading the Gingerbread-4.5.91.zip Will I do that through fastboot?
I've erased everything, can do that in fastboot. It just doesn't load into anything else but RSD (I think) & fastboot. "No OS detected" and then the "Available Modes" are listed. Fckng nightmare..
If yer downloading the .sbf, no. You'll extract the .zip and use RSD lite to flash the file inside it. Atleast that's what I do.

I am using the instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1163342 but don't get anywhere. After reboot I'm back to step 1.
Do you know where I can find the gingerbread SBF to flash by RSD?
P.S. Attached the screen it goes to as soon as I hit power, never seen it before..
Tried to flash the Gingerbread SBF through RSD, crashed at first (and made me kiss 400€ goodbye).. Thought I'd try once more...AND IT WORKED!!!!! At least it boots & starts!
Now though, it seems like the bottom part of the screen or perhaps just the 4 buttons are dead. And the drop down bar doesn't go down so that upper part is messed up as well. It seems the screen is borked. It also flashes quickly past the motoblur screen & takes me to the emergency call screen.
Anyone has a clue..?

Good morning everyone. I have a major technical issue with my phone after flashing to HKTW 2.3.4 and I am in dire need of assistance. I hope someone here can help me asap since I really need to use this phone.
So here is my issue. After flashing to 2.3.4 via Flash Recovery, I was greeted with an unusable touchscreen. Everything looked fine, however when I try to "touch" anything on the screen (keyboard, icons, menus, etc) I am forced to touch the opposite side of it, which means to click on an icon on the left side of the screen, i have to touch the right side of the screen. Similarly with the keyboard, to click a letter that's on the right side of the screen, I have to touch on the left side. I think the touchscreen is mirrored, probably for the Chinese characters?
But not only that, apparently, the 4 primary touch buttons (menu, home, return, search) are also reversed, thus having me to touch search in order to access menu.
I practically can't set up the phone due to this, and I didn't make a backup of /data prior to unlocking the phone (didnt know how to do so earlier). I have backups from TiBu but it's at home right now.
Is there anything I can do? Maybe change a setting via root explorer, or maybe through Flash recovery? Please someone help me.
Thanks,
Aqua
p.s. Moderators/Admins, I know I've posted this in several threads and I apologize for "spamming" but this is very urgent, so please don't delete this thread. Thank you.

Crap!! now it's stuck in a boot loop. After flashing 1.8.3, it attempts to boot, and after passing the att screen, the screen goes black and the red led continuously blinks. Afterwards it just reboots again. What should I do?
the cwm flash method seems to present this bug to several people. Now that you have flashed to 1.8.3, try going into recovery and doing a factory reset. If that does not do it, i would then try flashing either 1.8.3 or 2.3.4 via fastboot, by manually flashing the system and boot partitions. if neither suggestion works, then this problem is beyond my realm of expertise and youll have to wait on someone who knows what they are talking about to chime in.
Well, I now can't proceed nowhere. Apparently, I bricked my phone flashing back to 1.8.3. Now another ordeal to tackle. Gonna try Designgear's guide to recovering from a brick. Wish me luck

the same thing happened to me.. charge up your phone all the way and flash the 1.2.6 SBF. it took 2 seperate flashed for me, but it worked. and then i was able to proceed flashing 2.3.4 again

Now i'm in stock 1.83 froyo. Gonna do the unlock again, and proceed from there on. Not gonna do the 2.3.4 flash via CWM, will try a different method, hopefully it wont fail on me this time
what does bricking mean?

I guess i did a soft-brick? Not to argue with you, but based on several threads here on the forum, if the atrix is stuck boot-looping with the red led flashing rapidly, then it's considered bricked, but hey what do i know. All I care is I managed to get out of the predicament and proceed with trying to flash 2.3.4.
use the fastboot flash method, very clean and works great.
Success!!
I managed to get 2.3.4 without any issues (excluding whatever bugs there might be on this release). The touchscreen works perfectly fine without the crazy reversed touch or super sensitive responses.
After unlocking the phone using the pudding guide, I went and flashed the following through fastboot:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1139715
And it works like a charm. I am guessing either Tenfar's CWM or his flashable 2.3.4 release is buggy and did not want to work with mine. Or maybe I simply had to start from scratch (1.83 sbf) instead of continuing from my deodexed 1.83 *shrugs*. But yeah, things are looking much better now thank god.
Now, I will try to install Tenfar's CWM and this as well:

Sorry that I didn't reply any sooner. This is what I did, since when the phone is with that problem won't charge the battery nor with charger nor with USB, so, I ran out of juice... I had to get an universal charger to charge the battery and then I flash it with RSD. I've flashed this file 154_5 sbf, once I got in, I flashed the updated one. It worked pretty good.
Let me know, regards.
when I am flashing sbf I have to remove my external sd card otherwise it wont work at all.
I changed to Alien Rom.after changing to alien rom I was facing a lot of FCs.So tried RSD lite with latest SBF.Now I am stuck at "Failed to boot 4 starting RSD mode"
From what I read from forums my phone is soft bricked.
"Failed to boot 4" is when a filesystem is missing a signature
The solution is to flash 154 sbf using RSDlite 5.5 version with a fully charged battery using the usb at the back of your computer.
Once you are successful flashing 154 you can update with latest SBF.
The important points are below.
1. Fully charged battery. (use an external battery charger as Photon does not charge batery in boot mode.
2. Used RSDlite 5.5 version
3. Use USB at back.
4. Use 154 not the latest version of SBF.
5. Make sure the process is not interrupted until the process is completed
Failed to boot 2
Im having the same problem and reflashing 154-5 doesnt work. Instead phone says "SVF:106:1:2

You may also want to reinstall the drivers for your photon. I had the same problem and a quick driver reinstall fixed it.
It appears that I have either damaged or deleted the bootloader. Sprint won't touch it with a 10 foot pole. Does anyone know how to get the bootloader back to the device?

Are you still getting "starting RSD mode"?
If you are, I think you're safe. I guess you're one of the many of us who flashed 2.3.5 pudding into their Photons. If that's the case you can follow a small tutorial i did here:

Give it a shot and let me know how it goes.
You shouldn't need the bootloader at all actually. I had the same issue with my phone. I had to remove the SIM card and the SD card. Then when you put the battery back in Hold down the Power button and the Volume up button until it says RSD lite mode or something along those lines. Then connect it to your computer and run the RSD lite and select the proper factory ROM that you need to install back on your MOPHO. You will lose root access but your phone should be right back to all of the factory settings. I have done this multiple times to fix error that I got because I am new to Rooting my device and everything as well. I will give you links to where I was able to find some addition support as well.

Download RSD Lite and 198_7 SBF from.
http://www.holylivingfuck.com/ACS/SBFs/
You should read this thread on more information about 198_7
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1202666
Make sure you have proper USB drivers for OS 64 or 32 bit installed, install RSD lite and follow the directions below.
Make sure your battery is greater than 50percent before doing any of this.
1) Fire off RSD lite, select the SBF you need 198_7 .
2) Hold down power and vol up till RSD mode comes up
3) Plug into usb then start the flashing sequence.. ( the whole process will take a while)
4) The process is done when RSD lite says manually power up the phone.. You may need to take the back off and pull the battery to restart it incase it doesnt power up on its own.
I wonder if you downloaded an incomplete sbf. Try flash 198-7sbf one more time or see if you can enter android recovery and wipe. Also. Check the motorola driver is installed correctly.

do u think i should install safestrap? i mean after booting? is it safer?
I've used CWM and Safestrap, both work well. Safestrap gives you the advantage of basically being able to dual boot your system while leaving your primary ROM untouched, good for testing and messing around. I don't personally care for CWM, some people like it, just a matter of preference.
Yeah, the file is huge but once you have the fastboot files you don't have to worry about bricking your phone as long as you can get into AP Fastboot mode.

I installed an app to change the boot animation on my Atrix 4g and when I rebooted to see it, all i get is the m logo with dual core technology under it.

Do you have recovery software?
Fervi
Just restore the system partition from the backup you SHOULD do before any modification and you will be good to go.
Otherwise, delete the faulty bootanimation and restore the original via adb on recovery and reboot.
There is also a no bootanimation option on build.prop, althrough I'm not sure if it's avaiable on 2.3

If you have fastboot option, you can install TWRP (or CWM) and then install other rom (like Motorola Atrix ICS [4.0])

PwrReason: PWR_KEY_PRESS
starting fastboot protocol support
and when I try to put it into fastboot my phone comes on says something and it turns off to quickly for me to see what the text says.
and when I just power on without pressing anything it says failed to boot 1 and that same confounded dooming m logo
I feel as though my atrix is unflashable or something.

Really? the mini sbf that I'm referring to is not a full sbf. it is a 1 MB file that you should get and do to obtain root.
Where in what you have said in this entire thread did you unlock the bootloader?

Then I would highly advise that you unlock your bootloader before any more help is given to you. I don't say that in a mean way, I say that in a strong recommendation way. Without that bootloader being unlocked, there is little help we can do to get you back up and running.

there is an update to upgrade it to 4.5.145 i tried and i got a failed to boot 4 starting rsd protocol support
but i fixed that. So can i not update a phone with unlocked bootloader? or is there some kind of run around?
