Hello guys.. I got a serious problem with my atrix.
today morning , I tried to install the CM7 and it was success. It works well,
but It's not my style so I wanted to go back to pure stock rom.
I used RSD and flashing olympus 4.5.91 rom. and my Atrix died.
it was just appeared M logo and turn off, and appeared M logo and turn off again and again.
what should I do in this happen? OMG................. i have to use my phone asap..................................
plz help me clever guys!!!!
Thanks
Can you get into recovery? You should've flashed fruitcake. RSD is a no-no.

Nono flashing a gingerbread. Sbf wont hurt anything. But fruitcake is easier yes. Also plug your phone into the wall outlet. Let it do its thing. Then pull the battery out while its still plugged in. Leave it out 30 seconds. Then stick it back in and see if it charges.

Hi guys, I'm having the same problem as the OP. Here's my story:
- Got my phone with 2.3.4/4.5.91.
- Used Automatic Scripts to unlock BL and root.
- Everything was working fine.
- Flashed Tenfars' recovery.
- Everything fine again.
- Switched to RomRacer's recovery to test it.
- All good so far.
- Flashed CM7 thru recovery and it all went down.
- Got in a bootloop, showed CM7 boot animation and rebooted.
- Tried to ditch CM7, so restored my backup previously done via Recovery.
- Bootloop again, instead of CM7 animation, showed the M logo and reboot.
- Freaked out.
Fastboot and recovery work. Connected the charger and displayed the battery charging. Am thinking about installing some "Official Motorola 2.3.4/4.5.91 MSU" that is recommended on the Auto Script.

Since you can get into fastboot and recovery, just try flashing a fruitcake.
Are you still using romracer's CWM? Was the backup you're trying to flash made with romarcer's or Tenfar's? I now people had issues when trying to flash backups made with tenfar's after upgrading to romracer's. I think it had to do with how each CWM formats.

Thanks, downloading fruitcake as we speak, the one that reads "2.3.4 System and Boot NO Webtop (Updated Newest Script)", right???
Backup was made with Tenfar's, I instaleld Romracer and flashed CM7, switched back to Tenfar prior to restore, so not to mix backups.
One Q, after I flash this fruitcake, can I restore my backup and go on with my stock motoblured life???
TIA.

That I don't know. Don't see why not. But I don't want to give advice on something I haven't done personally. Plus I have never used tenfar's recovery. ( I believe it's out of date?) Search time

You can't restore backups made with tenfars recovery with romracers later on.
Thanks alot guys, fruitcake did the trick. At the Motoblur registration screen, just rebooted to recovery and restored my backup, everything is up again.

Hi, I am pretty new to this stuff, so bear with me here.
I recently rooted and installed eclipse v 0.5. Everything went well except I did not get my contacts and figured I did something wrong in the original ROM. I decided to go back to my original rom...but decided to wipe data because I thought that was the right thing to do. Now I have no idea how to restore the nandroid backup because I don't know how to get to clockwork recovery.
Help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Ever Think About Booting Into Recovery And Following The Same Steps Just Switch Backup To Restore. I'm Sorry But I Can't Believe You Asked This. I Mean How Did You Flash Eclipse You Must've Used The Bootstrap.

It has been my experience that after wiping data the bootstrap recovery is gone. Or I guess I shouldn't say gone but it will not boot into recovery after data wipe.

weird, I had root and bootstrap still installed after wiping data/cache and dalvik cache.
That Might Have Been Read Wrong, By Flashing Recovery I Meant Pressing The Install Button. To Me That's Flashing The Recovery.
Have you tried just plugging in the phone to the wall charger. Yes wall. And wait to see if it goes to recovery mode.
If it doesn't work all I think you can do is sbf and start again.

ok:
what do you do if said event happens where your recovery doesn't load through after the rom installs with the wipe/cache wipe
your phone boots, however your usb conditions are stuck on usb mode rather than charge mode.
the initial setup starts but is stuck in a loop of force closes that never end.
i have successfully used Roms in the past, no big deal. when **** hits the fan i use sbf; but i'm stuck in limbo where both recovery and sbf are seeming to be out of my options - unless i can change usb mode to charge mode by some strange form of buttons pressed.

Unplug your phone. Hold volume up and power on until you see the m logo and rsd protocol starting.
Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk
well that allows rsd to find it but - it won't just flash it and call it good. i'm getting all sorts of errors from rsd saying something about my ini
Code:
Failed flashing process. Unable to retrieve initialization value from INI file (0x7029)
i get this error before the above error (before i actually "start" it)
Code:
Chipset type 53 is not supported
restarted computer:
updated drivers:
no dice, same errors
EDIT: the problem was in the RSD version i was using, i got everything working now. thanks!
Hi all
I'm not new to flashing but I'm new to flashing cm7.
I odin back to stock jfd eclair. Root and Install CWM 2.xxx. I downloaded the stable cm7 and I started flashing. (after I wipe data/cache of course)
IN recovery, it said finding package, opening package, then my phone processed a series of lines and reboot automatically. On the startup, it says VIBRANT SAMSUNG, then GALAXY S CYANOGEN(mod) then the same recovery screen with many lines. It moved too fast into another reboot I couldn't read what was on the screen. And it kept doing this for quite 10 mins now.
Is it normal? if not, what did I do wrong? I can get into download mode and odin back to stock but I did it last night and I couldn't think what i did wrong.
Please help!
Hmmmm..... seems a bit wierd, try going into recovery and wiping and reinstalling with a new download.

Try reflashing cwm when your rooted, may have not flashed right
Sent from my Gewgle Phone via XDA App
This happened to me also, I went directly back to recovery, 3 button, and reflashed. Worked the second flash for some reason.
Thanks. I turn it off, get into recovery again, and re flash it successfully
Same exact thing happened. I have no idea how many time I odened back to stock trying to figure it out.
I did as you guys said, as soon as that loop began, pulled the battery and got back into recovery. flashed again and worked just fine!
same thing happened to me...i got back into recovery...i noticed cwm updated to 5.0.2.8 then i reflashed and all good...when i tried to flash at first. cwm was 2.5 ..maybe thats the issued it wont flash on that...has to be cwm 5.0
anyway getting ready enjoy some cm7 on my vibrant...
long story short ......with the new beats audio news out i flashed that and got stuck at the M logo on boot.
I pulled the battery plugged in and booted but still the same, stuck at M logo. Why is my bootstrap not working? i used it earlier today.
I also tried getting into the stock android recovery but then it just gets stuck at the android guy next to the triangle with the ! in the middle.
How do i get back into bootstrap so i can flash my nandroid backup! Thanks guys!
p.s. i have tried it numerous times hoping it would eventually work but nothing.

Did you flash the zrecovery before you rebooted?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426062
Might save you next time
Also if you wiped data your bootstrap will be gone.
not sure what zrecovery is?
i have the bootstrap recovery installed and have been using that for months without a hitch, just after i flashed the beats audio zip this morning (in bootstrap), i can't get it to even boot. im stuck at the M logo. and if i pull the battery and plug in, it won't even start up to bootstrap. I just want to flash my nandroid backup
i didn't wipe data, just flashed the zip. chose reboot in Bootstrap like normal and bam, stuck at M logo.....any way to force back into bootstrap? I was literally just in bootstrap 1 hr ago so i know its there....just not loading
Not that I aware of besides doing a sbf rooting again and installing bootstrap and then you can restore your nano back up.
Be sure to pull the battery for 30 sec put back and then plug in to get cwr to boot. Or Then try to access stock recov pwr on & rocker down to wipe data.
Thanks for the help!
As far as I know, the only way to get into bootstrap is through the bootstrap app itself. Which you need to be able to get into your phone to do. I do think you can get into it by rebooting while plugged in but maybe this doesnt work if you did something to mess up the startup. As was mentioned already, your only choice most likely is to SBF, root and install bootstrap again and then restore your backup.
I beg to differ. As long as charge mode was never put back to normal which is also a mistake.

if u have BSR installed and u haven't wiped data or flashed any new ROM, u can just power down/battery pull and u will boot into BSR, it hijacks charge only mode
Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk
sending out an SBF, my God there are great tutorials here in General and Android Dev sections... Cwr is not part of DX2 BSR is, but you wiped and lost that. To enter stock Android Recovery you just hit power button volume down...but that won't help you now...so just SBF and root then restore your backed up material through Titanium backup.... Install BSR and NANDroid back...you did make NANDroid backups I assume, if not I suggest starting to. Good luck

Thats what I thought. But the OP cant get that to work from what I get. Is that method still supposed to work if you cant even boot the phone?
As long as you do not wipe data BSR should be installed. If you pull battery and put it back in before you even try to boot plug it in to wall charger. This will take you straight to BSR before you ever try to boot. Then you can get back to your nano back up.
"I also tried getting into the stock android recovery but then it just gets stuck at the android guy next to the triangle with the ! in the middle."
@ the triangle Push the middle of the rocker to get to stock recovery. (both up and down at same time)

Stock recovery wont allow you to flash stuff to the phone or backup your ROM or stuff like that. Thats why we have a special one to do those things.
Stock is good for flashing an ota (no need to rename just make it start w/ a number so it will be first in a mess of zips at the root of your external sd)
And wiping data.

I was wondering the same thing.
so i try to turn on wifi and ses error and hard resets and then just randomly does it so i tried flashing a different rom well 4 of them actually and none of them fixed it then i tried to sbf with 183 with pudding then it wouldnt even loadn up it would get to the att logo then reboot and go off with the red light flashing finally i had to fast boot to get clockwork mod then flashed another rom and its still doing it any one got an answer to this crap
Engrish Prease?
If I'm getting that right, you bootlooped, tried flashing 4 roms without wiping, then decided to sbf?
Well... Fastboot wipe, try flashing any rom using the latest romracer recovery, and hope that you didn't HARD BRICK YOUR PHONE BECAUSE YOU USED AN SBF.

Still don't know whether you're on the latest recovery (romracer's or CWM touch). That could be an issue. If you aren't getting failed to boot message, then it's almost certainly a software issue. Were it my atrix, I would ask myself:
Am I still getting the white unlocked text after that SBF?
1. If not, then unlock, wipe, and flash a rom using the latest recovery, and NEVER touch another SBF
2. If so, try a more thorough wipe if possible. Use every fastboot erase and make sure that your downloaded ROM isn't corrupted. Then do the rest of 1. minus unlocking, of course.
I have the latest rom racer recovery and the sbf I flashed was 1.83 with pudding I got it mostly functional again by restoring a backup I had. but still if I try to turn on wifi it will say error and the bootlooping starts all over again . That seems to be what is causing it. And yes the unlocked is still at the top of the moto logo.

Okay, so I was going to install the new cm9 alpha rom that was released. But every time I try to BSR; superuser denied the permission. Even though I have it set to allow it.
But what I though was weird was that if I powered my phone off. Then plugged it into a charger, that the BSR screen appeared. So I made a nandroid recovery of my 2.3.5 OS and then tried to flash cm9. But then it started to give me errors. So I then was gonna just recover the nandroid backup since I factory reset and clear cache. but then it froze trying to recover.
Then I though that I should just power back on my phone then try it again. So I did that and now the BSR screen won't appear it just shows the motorola logo and stays there. HELP!!
I think we will need clarification of your abbreviations before we can help you. Do you mean, SBF or BSR. SBF means you use RSDLite to re-flash your phone to a stock state, and BSR is your Boot Strap Recovery. Unless I'm missing something.
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA
BSR sorry...
Have you tried holding down the volume button when you power up, plugged into the wall? That should get you into Android Recovery. I believe you may see a lil Droid with a triangle. Then press both volume up and down at the same time. Your menu should appear.
The first problem I saw when reading the OP was that you need to be on 2.3.4 to flash CM9.

Yeah i sbf back to 2.3.4 and had to re-root my phone and start all over. So everything is working fine. I think the problem was that I updated to 2.3.5 and it unrooted me but still had the superuser.apk installed but not let me have su permission. eather way I fixed it.
