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.

So I'm a noob to this whole rom thing and i think that i am in over my head...
first i rooted using GingerBreak-v1.20.apk and not knowing what i was doing deleted some of the bloat (games). When I tried to do the bell gingerbread ota update i got the error. I tried to re install them but it didn't work.
So i decided to try to rom my phone.
First i unlocked using the Bell_Ihop from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1136261 which worked...
I then flashed a rom from ROM manager. It was ninja v0.3.4 (i think). It worked but i got a grey ? battery error... I didnt realize and my battery ran down. And while i cant be 100% sure yet i dont think my battery works any more (is that possible)
so i posted a Q on the forums and got an answer here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1251529
I borrowed a battery which let me turn on my phone but was still unknown...
I followed his answer and did a wipe. I decided i wanted alien so i flashed tanfer cmw recovery and flashed alien using that.
and I got stuck on the boot screen
so i did a wipe again and tried to reboot to bell stock2.2.2 and got an error so i did a reboot and i guess that the stock managed to reinstall the regular recovery..
and im still stuck on the reboot page...
so my question is I cant do anything cuz my battery doesnt work so i cant reflash cmw and I dont know anyone with an atrix to get a battery from (im pretty sure i outstayed my welcome in my local bell store, thats where i did all this)
Is there anyone in toronto that would fix this for me, i need this phone and i would pay for someone to do it for me cuz i cant do anything myself!! (And I'm a noob)
Thanks in advace...
first off, use this to charge your battery: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDtv7qKf8tQ
after you get a charge on your battery again, go into CWM and clear Data/Cache, and then go into Advanced Options and clear your Dalvik Cache.
after that, flash any ROM and try to boot up. if you get stuck into a bootloop, post back here and let us know.
you'll need to flash CWM again using Fastboot, i suggest Romracer's which can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204500
Thanks I will try this but I have a few questions
1. I did all this (the wipes and the flash) with tenfars, will this make a diff?
2. What tegrapart am I? (remember I cant boot into my phone to check through terminal emulator)
3. Now that I have been traumatized i just wanted to ask, on the alien site he says that it will take an unbearably long time to boot, how long should I expect to wait?
thanks for putting up with my "noobyness"
I don't know how to find your tegra part but it might take up to a few minutes the first time you boot. You'll know if you get a boot loop or not, the whole animation will do a major skip and start back from the start
And I know some people have problems with tenfar's. romracer's is just superior in my opinion.

You shouldn't, as long as all you're doing is flashing ROMs with cwm. All else fails you can just flash a different one.

I tried the battery trick and it caused the usb jacks on my computer to stop working... I also tried to charge with a different phone and it didnt work. I called Motorola and am getting a new battery...
Has anyone ever had this happen that a battery should stop getting a charge at all after a flash?
Buy a cheap wall charger and battery from ebay.

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.

agreed, u should still have bootstrap installed. are in in the os and dont know how to perform the nandroid restore or are you in the recovery and dont know where to go from there?
After you flash a rom the first time you use bootstrap you have to click install recovery

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.
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
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!
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.
Im running 2.3.5 on a rogers phone in canada and my phone says there is an update. When I click on download and install, it does its thing and when it boots back up it says updated failed. Not sure what im doing wrong. I searched everywhere and could not find anything that will help
You have probably changed your system somehow. You can try flashing a nandroid backup to restore all missing bloats. You can also flash brasilizian 2.3.6 gb, wich is pretty much the same as rogers one.

Try disabling any anti virus you may have installed. Also, do a factory reset/ wipe user data and cache before flashing the brazilian 2.3.6
Think my phone is messed up. everything time I reboot, It goes to flashmode. I have to hold power and both volume buttons and when it goes blank I let go of the power it goes to fastboot and I have the option to power up in normal.
Try an wipe Data in Moto Recovery. For me it was the solution when I had this problem first time...
flash this empty_radio.zip
Thanks, I got my phone back up
Hi guys. So here's my problem. I recently tried to update my phone to the latest version of NRG's Energy Rom using CWM. In the process I did a factory data wipe, and wiped the dalvik cache. I then flashed the rom as normal, but when I rebooted all I got was the white screen with the green HTC logo. It refuses to go any further. I can still get into recovery if needed, and I've tried a ton of different things, but to no avail. Anybody have any ideas as to what I need to do or is this thing hosed?
The phone is S-ON at the moment with an unlocked bootloader.
Any help is appreciated.

Flash the wipe script, flash the rom you wanted, when the phone boots up, let it sit for a few minutes, like 10 should be good.
Well I'll be damned. I could have sworn I tried that, but there we go. Thank you so much for the help.

Also, get rid of CWM and use 4ext recovery. It's in the dev section... And its the preferred recovery by most amaze users. I have a thread in Dev section
It allows you to flash kernel automatically when flashing ROM, that way you don't have to use a kernel flasher. Plus many other features.

Thanks for the info. I've been looking at recent posts and it seems I'm behind on a few things, including getting s-off.
Weird Problem
I had the same problem but I don't want to lock and re-unlock my bootloader. And this has never happened but my CWM Recovery isn't working. I didn't use 4ext bc this happened last time with that recovery. Is there any way to find the wipe script to use it from fastboot?
Tried kernel flashing; re-flashing recovery...second time this happened with s-on on speed rom
Had to re-wipe phone and re-flash everything...Got it working again! Weird problem though?!?!
