Root wirelessly because I've lost my cwm recovery - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can I root wirelessesly? I ask because my phone is fc ing on a lot of apps and after I flashed this last rom I lost my recovery...? It wont let me boot into recovery to flash a backup so I was hoping to root , install rom manager, and flash cwm recovery and do a full wipe restore.
If there are any other suggestions im all ears because im out of town until Friday morning and can't install anything on my work cpu or I would install fastboot etc.

you shouldn't have to install anything on the computer, you would only need to download the files

What files exactly and how do I install it without being able to enter android recovery ?

Can you getvin fastboot? If so, do command
fastboot -w
fastboot reboot
That should do the trick

I can get into fastboot on the phone but how do I get fastboot on the cpu without installing it, or am I missing something?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App

Just download adb with fastboot from google if you don't already have it, restart your phone into fastboot, open cmd prompt from computer and follow commands to install romracers recovery in his thread under development. This only works if your unlocked btw. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204500

Make a live Linux CD/flash drive and boot to that if it allows you to. Then try the Linux versions of adb/fastboot.

I'll see if I can figure that out because Im not up to date on linux and how it works... As the days go my system seems to be getting worse.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App

So I have tried everything to no avail. It seems like the phone is getting worse day by day...
I wish I could root from the phone not tethered some how so that I could install rom mgr and flash cwm recovery and access my backups, or be able to fastboot somehow, or find some way to install a recovery without tethering to access my backups!!
Im worried my phone will explode over night...lol

I don't understand how you lost your recovery without root... and you would have to be unlocked to write to the recovery partition, yes?
Find a windows computer that you have admin rights too, download the Motorola Drivers and Fastboot.
Presuming you are unlocked:
Boot your phone to Fastboot mode by Powering off the device; pressing the power button and depress hold the down volume key until a little words say RSD something; then use the down volume key to navigate to Fastboot; then press the up volume key.
Then connect the device do the computer and reference this thread to install a new CWM recovery.

This last time I flashed, something must have been left inside the phone that the current rom did not like.
The rom itself is supposed to be rooted and unlocked the phone itself is still unlocked, but superuser permissions won't be granted to any application and when I try to enter android recovery it seems like it's going to work but all it does is boot the phone back up without the radio working.
I have ben trying to find a cpu for 3 days now so I can do just that. I'll be home tomorrow and should be all good.

[Q] cwm recovery

i recently tried flashing cwm recovery on my atrix and when i did i got a error FAILED <remote: <00180002>> .... i was unlocked but soft bricked my phone and had to flash sbf 1.2.6 will this have any effect on this error? and is it because im not unlocked anymore?
make sure when you boot up the phone it says unlocked when trying to pu the new cwm
Your bootloader needs to be unlocked, if it isn't, it won't work.
I unlocked then flashed to 1.2.6 and I thought if u unloked once your always unlocked
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
yes and no it seems that flashing partially locks just reunlock once unlocked all you have to do is reflash the sbf no need to execute the comands again
I flashed the unlock sbf again and it says unlocked and it sucessfully put cwm recovery on my phone but I can't bott in cwm recover mode anybody no the problem?

Out of curiosity, are you using tenfar's custom CWM, or are you installing it from within the ROM Manager app? ROM Manager's CWM isn't fully working yet, so try tenfar's instead if you aren't using it already. Tell us how it goes.

I'm not really sure which one you mean; did you not use CWM to install Kenneth's 2.3.4? Did his distribution come with a CWM .img file? I haven't used it myself.
Anyways, starting from scratch, if your bootloader's unlocked, all you need to do is go here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1138541
And download this file:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=641508&d=1309404399
Then download fastboot for Windows if you don't already have it:
http://diamantephoto.com/fastboot.rar
Extract all the files into one folder. I just used my Windows drive root (c:\) to make the commands easier to type.
Then open a command prompt (Start -> type "cmd" in the run box). Type the command "cd (whatever directory you stuck the files in)". In my case, I type "cd c:\".
Once the directory is properly selected, ensure your atrix is connected via USB, power it on while holding the down button, and once you see "fastboot" selected on the screen, press the up button, at which point you will see that the phone's ready to receive commands from the fastboot utility.
Back in the command prompt, type "fastboot flash recovery recovery-en-goapk-0630-1029.img". After several seconds you should see confirmation of success. Once that's done, you can tell fastboot to reboot the phone with "fastboot reboot", or you can reboot it manually, once again holding the down button. Then, once "fastboot" appears again, press the down button seven more times to select Android Recovery, then press the up button. Voila, tenfar's CWM with blue text should have loaded up.
I apologize if I was unnecessarily verbose, but I wanted to be as specific as possible.
Thnks I will try
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
i did all that and the only thing that came up was the android guy with an !
So fastboot did report that it had successfully flashed the recovery file? If it didn't properly boot into CWM after that, I'm not sure what to tell you... Come to think of it, I imagine you'll have to have at least 1.8.3 for CWM to work properly.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125944
Get the SBF from there, and then try flashing CWM again after that.
It said "finished" and im already on 1.8.3

Installing ROM s-on newbie question

Have to ask this as I'm completely new to android and installing new ROM's...
The instructions for a certain rom say: Reboot to bootloader to flash PH98IMG.zip if you were identified as S-ON.
Does this mean to let the bootloader preform the "update" it's found? Because it seems to do this automatically when I get into the bootloader....
thanks for helping!

I have never flashed a rom by flashing the PH98IMG.zip because for some reason it hasn't worked for me, maybe i just did something wrong.
What I do instead is extract the rom .zip on your computer. Then, put the boot.img file into the platform-tools folder in the android sdk (assuming you already have the android sdk installed). Then, flash the rom, then power the phone off, then press and hold power+volume down to boot into hboot. From there you select fastboot. At the top you should see fastboot usb in the red box. Then, type into command prompt or terminal (for mac) fastboot flash boot boot.img After that, just reboot and the new rom should boot just fine.
Idk if you have a mac, but this is the tutorial I used to download and set up the adb with my macbook. Its very easy, if you have windows, im sure you could google instructions.
When you put the ROM on your sd card, extract the boot.img and put it in a ph98img.zip file. Install ROM, go to bootloader and it should ask you it update. Update and you're good to go. Keep in mind I don't like using command prompts

To add onto that, depending on how you get to the bootloader, it may boot into fastboot initially. If so, just hit the power button on the BOOTLOADER option and it will do the rest.
I've read that the only way to flash a kernel with s-on from fastboot is you have to use adb. I guess when you reboot the bootloader from adb you gain access to the recovery partition but if your s-on just booting into the recovery doesn't work. I've decided to stay s-on (personal preference) and flashed multiple kernels with the zip. But back to your question is yes let the update go through and the kernel should be installed.

I am assuming that you already have the adb setup.
Download the recovery and rename it to well recovery then put the "recovery" file on the adb folder
Next open up terminal type "cd" then space bar and drag and drop the folder that you put the recovery file into the terminal then hit enter
Turn off fastboot on your phone and turn on usb debugging and type this into the terminal ./adb devices
If your device shows up then type this ./adb reboot bootloader
then type this ./fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
wait for it to flash then type ./fastboot reboot bootloader
Then go to the recovery then once you are in the custom recovery go down to developer options
Select Install su and superuser and wait for that to finish.
And boom your rooted and running
I have a mac also and thats what I did
If you find a way to S off on a mac let me know

I haven't used it for anything. I just wanted to be sure that I didn't need to put any type of file in the removable sd card. I followed all of the steps including finding the developer option under recovery. From there I selected install su and superuser. It went through the steps and then I rebooted the phone as the next step . However the phone is still not rooted. Btw I am using recovery 3.16. Should I try an earlier version?

Is my phone still savable?

I cannot get my phone to start, whenever I reboot it takes me to recovery!
When I'm at recovery it shows black screen. (Recovery installed from Rom Manager)
I can only access bootloader. What did I do?
I installed Rom Manager and install the Clockworkmod Recovery
I wanted to flash cyanogenmod 11, I did that in the Rom Manager
Then my DNA restarts and shows black screen after the HTC Logo
Help please!! >.<
Being in recovery is a good thing. You should have done a backup before flashing. Go to cwm , wipe system data and cache. Restore your backup. Then get a fresh cm down load and start from scratch. Don't use rom manager to flash this time. Flash from recovery.
Oops sorry reread your post. Recovery is not working? So did you flash recovery through rom manager, then immediately flash cm without booting to recovery first to make a backup? Either way your phone will be fine. you will likely have to push a new recovery through adb. You will find instructions through search.
Put the phone in fastboot open a command window on your pc and then use the command "fastboot erase cache" and then see if you can boot into the recovery.

Are you using windows? I had trouble getting adb to work with my current windows install. I used unbtu booted from a usb and adb worked perfectly....
I borked up my DNA a few weeks back like yours. I use Linux Mint, used some flashboot commands (I'm at work, can't remember exactly) and was able to flash TWRP recovery (but you could flash CWM if you wanted to). Then I was able to RUU. I could have pushed a ROM and flashed afterwards, but I RUU'd instead.
Hope this helps.
Word to the wise, when flashing anything on your phone, READ ALL THE DIRECTIONS VERBATUM. If you don't, you risk the bork (like I did).

Need flasher!!!!!

I rooted the Hydro Elite last night and immediately started cleaning up the Verizon bloatware. I must have went a little crazy and removed an APK from the system/app folder that is required for the phone function to run. I am now just getting FC's on 'com.android.phone' when not in airplane mode. Tried a factory reset to no luck, tried some APK restores from similar models, etc. In my arrogance of thinking I know what I am doing I did not backup the APK's I removed from the system/app folder. Normally this would be no big deal, I could just pull them from the ROM image, or reload an image, or whatever. But, it seems Kyocera or Verizon have absolutely no self-help ROM's on the net to reinstall nor has any custom ROMs been developed for this phone yet. I have the system zip but i dont know what or how to use or flash it/ restore it! SOMEBODY PLEASEEEEEE HELP ME

Try putting the phone in airplane mode then enable wifi, if that works then download "flash GUI" from google play and try installing the zip that way. Its a long shot but you got nothing to loose.

How to: Use "adb sideload" on your Android device
Probably every Android power-user at least once in his life used ADB - Android Debug Bridge. It is a versatile command line tool that lets you communicate with an emulator instance or connected Android-powered device. Using ADB shell commands gives you additional control over your device and sometimes it can save your device from being bricked (example: How to: copy ROM zip file to the freshly wiped device). You can find some more basic information about ADB here.
Since Android Jelly Bean there has been a new ADB mode available in the AOSP recovery, incorporated by the Android developer community into custom recoveries too. It is called "ADB sideload" and most of you probably have heard about it already. This is an alternate method to the one I wrote about here - How to: copy ROM zip file to the freshly wiped device. The main difference is that ADB sideload works only with recoveries based on Jelly Bean source or newer. I believe that ADB sideload was created to simplify the process of flashing/restoring Android update.zip packages.
Keep in mind that while using ADB sideload, the regular ADB shell won't work. To be able to use SIDELOAD mode make sure you're running latest ADB drivers from the Android SDK (Platform-tools). Here are the simple steps you need to follow to flash update.zip package using adb sideload mode (based on stock Android recovery):
Place the ZIP package you want to install in the same location where you keep ADB drivers - adb.exe, AdbWinApi.dll and AdbWinUsbApi.dll (usually it's SDK\platform-tools)
Make sure you have USB debugging enabled in Settings > Development on your device
Make sure your phone drivers are installed on the PC you're going to use
Boot your device in recovery mode (Android logo with a exclamation mark) and connect your device to PC
Hold down "power" button first, followed quickly by "volume up" button. You should now see the recovery menu
Use the volume up/down keys to select "apply update from ADB," then press power to select it
Open a command prompt on the PC (cmd.exe), type and confirm with ENTER:
cd /d <adb.exe location> (for example: cd /d c:\SDK\platform-tools) or you can open your SDK/platform-tools folder, then press SHIFT button and the right-click mouse button and choose “Open command prompt here”
adb sideload <filename>.zip (for example: adb sideload update.zip)
The zip package will begin installing. When it's done, select "reboot system now."
How is that different from the alternative method? You don't have to manually create the proper folders structure, push the file and later install if from inside the recovery menu. The result is basically the same, because ADB sideload is also transferring the zip file into the device internal memory and later it automatically begins the installation procedure. However, it works only with recoveries based on Android Jelly Bean source.

Ok try to enable fast boot on your phone. Then connect to PC. Copy the zip file that you got from the Russian guy and paste into your fast boot folder. Type "Fast Boot name of file .zip" then type " type in commands to reboot your phone. And switch back to your phone, ( click on it from your desktop as if you are going to "safely remove". Google using fast boot to umbirick any android phone" tons of guides. I would post links but XDA does not allow it until I have posted 10 times
OK so which fastboot program do I use? And which fastboot folder exactly do I put the system zip in?

Another way - flashing whole system.img partition through fastboot flash system system.img. Link to archive with stock 2.03 system image: http://4pda.ru/pages/go/?u=http:%2...ocera_elite.7z
ok here somebody sent me a solution i think this is the correct way , however can break this down to me in more detail.

Not sure you could load CWM since bootloader is locked, but flashing the whole system may do the trick. The exact breakdown is beyond my abilities. Maybe post the question on this forum on how to flash system img via fastboot. That should in theory restore you back to original state.

Hello
Please can you help me put on my Kyocera C6750 fastboot mode.
It restarts and I can only get into recovery mode.
Thank you
