Hi!
Tomorrow I will get my lapdock and in 2 days I'm flying to Japan and I need to have everything done by the end of tomorrow.
I have an international Atrix running Darkside 4.4 (4.5.133) running 2.3.5.
If I didn't misunderstand, If I want to use the lapdock I have to download a fruitcake. but which one? Do I have to download 2.3.5 att 4.5.133 Webtop or can I use ATT 4.5.140 - 2.3.6 webtop?
For installing the webtop is just like installing a new rom, right? backup, wipe, and install webtop in CWM, right? Is it recommended to do a full wipe, reinstall the rom and the webtop?
Thanks!
I installed the latest version of Webtop for 2.3.6 which had firefox 8 using CWM.
I did not re install Darkside or do a full wipe.

I am still on the older HKTW 2.3.4 and now that the newer ATT leaked 2.3.4 is out there i would like to know the best way to flash it? And by best i mean safest . I know there have been a lot of bricked atrix's, so any help is greatly appreciated!
Additional info:
I have installed Clockwork recovery
I have rooted it
Thanks
The best way is to use Ken's cwm zip. The danger is in updating using the orange pulled from moto servers and then trying to sbf back to an earlier build.
Ken's rom and Dorian's red pill rom are both fantastic.
Edit: This assumes you have the unlocked CWM, which I would guess is the case since you are on HKTW.

so can i just flash dorians redpill over my hktw 2.3.4, because he says you can do it if you are already on 2.3.4 but i am not sure if it will only work if you are on Kenns 2.3.4. WOuld the safest method be to flash back to 1.8.3, then unlock the bootloader and flash back to kenns 2.3.4 then to dorians redpill?
I have an Atrix 4G (Bootloader unlocked and Rooted), now; most treads that I have read are not clear enough to what exactly Gingerblur 4.5 is, if it is a new Rom that would install and replace Gingerbread 2.3.4 or if you have to have some form of Factory Rom installed (Froyo, Gingerbread, etc.) for Gingerblur to install on top of it. With this said; do I need to keep whatever Rom I have now or I need to wipe the phone clean? or Gingerblur would install regardeless?.
Please if somebody could clarify this.

GingerBlur is a pseudo-rom. Try CM7 or Aura, real roms. They will wipe your phone clear during installation.
Hehe isn't it kinda simple to see how old something is by looking at the posted date? Either way I've been messing around trying to get this rom working on my phone again just for fun and I forgot what it looked like. And I finally got it. Lol. If anyone wants detailed instructions on how to get the beast that is Gingerblur working PM me.

Hi, i updated from CM7 to the Motorola Official update 2.3.4 using the method described here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1163342
But now im wondering how do i know i have the latest official update? cause the zip file that the guy link at that post is described as a beta and when i go to my camera i don't see the option to record at 1080p and this was one of the features that was suppose to come in that update.
Also id like to know what is the latest Webtop version atm? because i also dont know if my version is out of date or not.
No one?
There is only currently the option to playback 1080p, not record in 1080p.
If you want the latest got to the Fruitcakes thread and flash version 2.3.5 and the accompanying webtop.
You mean these 2?
2.3.5 att 4.5.133

Oh ok, so both of them will give me a clean and safe official Motorola ginger?
Is bootstrap recovery the same as clockwork recovery? Are they one and the same?
Also I'm on kernal 2.3.4 do I have to do anything special if I want to load a 2.3.5 rom?
Sorry I'm new to playing around with motorola phones.
I thought they were the same when I first started hacking my phone. But it turns out they are not the same.
As for updating your phone to 2.3.5, if you are on stock 2.3.4, all you need to do is root your phone, install bootstrap recovery and flash the 2.3.5 ROM using bootstrap recovery.
There is a nice guide someone put together in the dev. Section.

Basically, yes - those recoveries a almost the same. They are both used in the same way, which is to backup/restore, wipe data and flash a ROM. So there's no real difference.
As for the 2.3.4 kernel. SOME people can get away with flashing a 2.3.5 based ROM on their 2.3.4, others can't. Either way, I'd recommend just updating to 2.3.5 to safe. Plus (to me), 2.3.5 seems smoother and faster.
To Update to 2.3.5, just download the update.zip from here: http://www.multiupload.com/0ZT7FTOW0R
This is just the update file, so all you need to do is flash that, but I won't get into much about that.
If you need a guide on updating it, then you can look at this one right here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1391824
That's the one I used.
Ok so I'm currently on Molten 2.2 wich is a 2.3.4 romand was looking at liberty rom wich is 2.3.5 rom. So all I would need to do is just clear the needed data and flash it like any other rom?
The reason for asking about if it was clockwork was because in one of the roms the instructions says to use clockwork and I never saw a like to clockwork in the dev section
Yes I looked in the stickies first and these were just the questions that popped up that I didn't see the answer to it. I may have just over looked it but I figured I would ask before I borked my phone lol
looks like while I was writing a responce some one answered lol thank you all for your help
U don't need to root to install 2.3.5
It is signed by moto so we can flash in stock recovery
(actually that's how you SHOULD FLASH 2.3.5)
And our BSR is a hacked/ported cwm
To update to 2.3.5 you WILL need to be STOCK (you CAN be rooted but it will take away root when u flash it....just root again with zergrush...)

Just so you know, Liberty is a 2.3.4 rom. Have a look at the OP in that thread. If you're on Molten, just wipe data and cache and you should be set.
