I rooted my phone, and downloaded bootstrap to flash rom... I downloaded cyanogenmod rom and it didn't install correctly, now when I turn the phone on it says
"failed to boot 2
starting rsd mode" and it's stuck there... Please help me!!
You need to SBF back to stock 154_5, 198_6, or 198_7. Find the videos by qbking77, there will be complete instructions.
Also, CyanogenMod ROMs cannot be installed via bootstrap. They are for unlocked users only. Look at the different ROMs in the dvlevelopment threads and see what suits your needs. Unlocked ROMs install with a custom recovery. Unlocking breaks 4G!!!! Read up and decide what is good for you and follow the flashing instructions exactly.
Also, after you SBF and before you boot for the first time run a factory reset from within recovery. If you don't you will bootloop.

I tried all 3 of those and they all failed... smh I'm sick =/
They failed because your battery is too low. It doesn't charge in rsd mode.
Here's your options:
Charge battery with another phone.
Charge with batter strait in wall charger.
Cut a charger cord and put the black and red wire under the battery on the correct + and - spots.
Send to sprint and see if they will replace it. This happened to me and they gave me a new phone.
Also flash using the back usb ports. They write 2x faster than the front ports.

hi there i have been flashing roms on my atrix for a while now but i came along a rom called honey rom which made me use a special version of clock work mod recovery .after using the rom it would keep crashing so i decide to sbf it back to original which it did but then found the clock widget didnt work when plugged into the dock.and when i put clockwork mod recovery on it from the market and tried booting into it ,it would reboot and say fail to boot 2?so i have been trying to flash the original stock tmobile sbf on it and now rsd lite gets 100% of creating the image then says fail to process can anyone help or have got a properly bricked atrix and if so any suggestions on how to get it fixed .im on contract so worried on how to approach tmobile with the said problem
i am on att and i got this same error when i rooted and installed cwm... i had to flash back to a stock sbf then root then unlock my bootloader then recovery worked... not exactly how it works on a tmobile version. but maybe try it again. if not.... you still may be able to get warranty... a few people have been able to use warranty through carrier or motorola... even with root and unlocked bootloader. never hurts to try all options.. good luck!
after flashing rsd light
i have read your comments about you flashing stock rom through rsd lite. just a little suggestion that might help, maybe your battery is to low to flash any rom because i know that atrix has a cap for flashing rom when battery is low. Meaning if your in a certain batter percentage you are not able to flash any rom whether rsd or cwm.
I have been reading a whole bunch of stuff but can't seem to piece together what to do. My atrix is unlocked and rooted. I was flashing a rom and it started to boot loop. I would like to just flash it back to stock now. Confused if I should use fastboot or rsd. Some of the possible fixes I have found have bad links for downloads. I also saw a few things that said flashing back to stock with rsd could brick the phone??
After unlocking the phone I /would not/ recommend using RSD to flash /anything/.
When you unlock your phone, you burn a bit fuse that tells the phone you've unlocked it. There is no way to undo that. Using RSD improperly can cause your phone to hard brick and render it useless.
To avoid possibly breaking your phone from this point I would recommend taking a close look at what ROMs are available in the development section to see which one(s) suit your needs. Listed below are the ones I use on any of my three Motorola Atrix 4G's ( US ATT )
Neutrino ( CyanogenMod 7 Base )
NottachTrix ( Closest Stock Experience IMO and more customizable )
Currently I run NottachTrix because I like webtop, but prior to getting a lapdock for this phone I ran solely on Neutrino EE with 0 issues.
You'll want to take a look at setting up Motorola's USB drivers for ADB / Fastboot usage these are a must.
For either ROM to flash properly, AFAIK, you'll need to use ROMRacers Recovery found here.
These are just my personal favorites, as there are a plethora more ROMs out there in the development section. There may be a stock ROM that I just am not aware of you can flash through recovery, but I wouldn't know off the top of my head.
As far as fixing the boot-loop issue goes I would go into recovery and wipe cache / data / dalvik cache, under advanced in recovery, and then reflash the ROM you're trying to use.
That got me on the right track. Thanks it's fixed.
Awesome! Glad to have helped. =)
Okay, I tried to flash the CM10 Rom on my girlfriend's Electrify that's flashed to cricKet (been flashed for a few months) last night. And it would not flash the ROM. I am rooted, I have the bootloader unlocked. CWM installed also. VERSION: will edit when i can boot
She was running CM7 which was very buggy, random reboot issues. So I decided I was going to flash the CM10 Unofficial mod, I tried to install like four or five times. Ran the "Aroma Prep.zip", then tselected install zip from SD. It kept showing the CM7 loading screen and kept bootlooping forever. So I kept pulling the battery trying to reinstall thinking I did something wrong.
NOW HER BATTERY IS DEAD!
I can't turn on the phone, tomorrow morning I am going to try to SBF the stock rom, but don't I need to be able to boot the phone in order to do so? What can I do, my girlfriend isn't very happy.
Okay, as I was typing this, it randomly booted...I can randomly get it to boot. I think the SBF would work I am scared to move to my Windows PC and try to use RSD Lite because it will take another 20-40 min to boot the f#*^@^* phone.
PLEASE HELP!
Tried RSD Lite, got the phone to enter RSD Recovery Mode....Buuuuuut
Code:
Starting RSD Protocol Support
Battery is Too Low to Flash
Does it charge in Clockwork Mod? Guess I will find out.:silly:
I thought that I broke my phone too my first time flashing CM9, Leave it on the charger overnight, and give it another shot in the morning. When I was flashing the first time I didn't have a charger, and it died on my half way through the third attempt at installing, leaving it just as un responsive as yours
My issue was just a user error, double check your files of your rom, re download them if necessary, and go over the instructions with a fine tooth comb.
It's pretty hard to brick these things, and seeing how you were still able to get to recovery is a good sign that it can be fixed.
Worst case, you'll have to start from scratch trying to flash it back to cricket once you get the rom situated.
Good to hear!
Well good news as of now, I put it on the charger and am not flashing the stock SBF.
I will let you know how that goes. I don't know why I was having trouble with the flash though. I had NO TROUBLE WHAT-SO-EVER when I flashed CM7 about two or three months ago. Really confusing why it wouldn't stick and kept bootlooping at the CM7 screen when it said installation complete.
So I am out of panic mode, and I think/hope my girlfriend will be after the SBF is done flashing!:good:
Got error at 99% in RSD Lite

Hello,
I upgraded my Samsung Vibrant to Froyo 2.2 with Samsung Kies Mini several months ago. I reverted to Eclair 2.1 with Odin in order to install ClockworkMod Recovery and unlock my phone. Now my phone is unlocked, rooted and with ClockworkMod Recovery installed.
1. I want to flash custom ROMs based on either Gingerbread or ICS. I tried to unlock my bootloader by following the instructions on addictivetips.com (when I typed "fastboot oem unlock" it only reboots the phone). Why is it not asking me if I want to unlock the bootloader?
2. I did a Nandroid Backup and I wonder if I need to backup the boot partition anyway. If so, is it OK to do it with RomDump?
3. Since I reverted to Eclair 2.1, does that mean I have an Eclair bootloader? Or do I still have the Froyo bootloader? Will Gingerbread bootloaders work on ICS based ROMs?
Last... Could you please recommend ROMs to flash with Odin? The one I found on CyanogenMod comes with problems when dialing 911
Thank you for your patience!
Your rooted, and you have CWM. Your making it more difficult that need be.
Flash the ROM in CWM, with install zip from SD. Follow flashing instructions in the OP of the ROM.
There are custom GB bootloaders, I have them, but some people don't use them.

Hello again... Yesterday I was looking for some JB ROMs, and I found a tutorial on "How to upgrade the Vibrant T959 to Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean via Helly Bean custom ROM" and it says it requires the GB bootloader (can I flash Helly Bean without it?). Then I went to CyanogenMod and the latest stable releases are CM7; for CM10 there are only nightly builds. I found a tutorial on how to install CM10 and it doesn't mention anything about the GB bootloader.
I was tempted to flash Helly Bean but the bootloader requirement confuses me. I don't know if I should keep looking for other ROMs, ignore the bootloader thing :silly: or settle with CM10.
Thank you for your patience!
As far as I know its not necessarily a requirement anymore, but maybe someone will post more detailed info for you. My buddy Samsgun357 has been on about every build of these JB ROMs you can think of, and has never flash GB bootloader.
On the other hand, I've been flashing around in the JB world, and I flash GB bootloader long ago. It's pretty painless and you only need to do it once. After you have GB bootloader its backward compatible, and so far forward compatible.
It takes about 30 seconds to actually Odin flash and its over. As long as you follow the guide to the letter, and you have a solid connection with Odin, you'll be fine.

There's a link to the correct thread, if you end up choosing to flash GB bootloader.

I appreciate all the help you have given me... I wish I could say I'm enjoying my new ROM, but something went wrong (probably I messed up) and now my phone is done. It won't get past the "Vibrant" screen, it won't boot into recovery and to make matters worse, the computer won't recognize the device. Now I have to read threads about bricked phones
Did you flash new bootloader? If you did, you may be unaware that the button combo for download mode, and recovery mode has changed.
Your phone is more than likely not "done".
Try pulling battery and micro SD and sim all out, and now depending on which bootloader you have, hold your button and pop battery in, and plug USB cable in. One fluid swift motion.
We'll get ya straightened out

I didn't flash a new bootloader.
I could get the phone on Download Mode. I opened Odin and loaded the pit & tar files in order to get to stock JFD. COM is on and after hitting Start the first cell says "set partition" but the progress bar is empty. Is not doing anything now but I don't know if its safe to unplug and do it again or try to open Recovery and restore my Nandroid backup instead
Please bear with me

IMPORTANT: This guide is for users with a Motorola Photon 4G (MB855) running the 2.3.5 OTA update only. For the lucky ones still running 2.3.4, you want this thread. For those of you who don’t know what version of Android you are running, DO NOT try this. Please read these forums carefully and learn everything you can before attempting this.
This guide is based on the work of halfevildruid and his thread for unlocking GSM for Photon users on 2.3.4 with unlocked bootloaders. All users should take the time to carefully read through that thread here and keep in mind that it was written for 2.3.4/unlocked bootloader users. Some files and steps in that thread will not work on Photons that have had the 2.3.5 OTA applied.
Unlocking US GSM Carriers on 2.3.5 OTA
Before You Start:
Doing this will remove the domestic GSM carrier lock on the Sprint Photon running 2.3.5 OTA. This process will most likely break your ability to return to Sprint service, so please DO NOT DO THIS if you want to keep your Photon running on Sprint. There are ways to fix this, but none have been tested on 2.3.5 OTA devices. As far as I know, this method has been confirmed to work on three phones (including mine), so consider this experimental and high risk. I am not responsible for bricked phones, warranty issues, cats chasing dogs or hot snow falling up if you try this.
Things You Need:
1.Windows PC (tested on Win 8) with the following software installed:
-Motorola USB Drivers [Download]-RSD Lite [Download]-ADB Tools/Android SDK [Download] (Not really necessary, but helpful if you have USB issues.)2. Micro USB cable and wall charger (needed for bootstrap recovery)
3. Standard (full size) SIM card for US GSM network. (ATT/T-Mobile/Straight Talk)
4. Micro SD card (not necessary, but good just in case)
5. Motorola Photon running 2.3.5 OTA ONLY
Files You Need:
1.Full US Cellular Electrify SBF [Download]
-1FF-sunfire-user-2.3.5-4.5.1A_SUN_USC_19.0-19-release-keys-signed-USC-US.sbf2. Unbrick SBF [Download]
- 2.3.5_45.4.13ota_unbrick.sbf3. Electrify/Photon (almost) One Click Root [Download]
-su.zip4. Bootstrap Recovery [Download]
-MOTODX2_Bootstrap_signed.apk5. Peetr’s Hybrid Locked 2.3.5 ROM [Dev Thread/Download]
-HybridGBv20locked.zip6. KDDI Radio [Download]
- KDDI_Radio_udate.zip
If any links do not work, most can be found at www.motosunfire.com.
Steps
1. Backup Your Stuff!
2. Shutdown phone and remove SIM/SD card (if applicable)
-Tip: Leave your battery cover off. There’s going to be a lot of battery pulls…3. Open RSD Lite on your computer.
4. Start phone in RSD mode:
-With phone unplugged hold volume-down and power
-It should say fastboot in the top left corner, press volume-down until RSD appears
-Connect phone to computer
-Press volume-up to enter RSD mode5. Select the full US Celluar SBF in RSD lite and press start.
-This process takes a few minutes and will end in an error, this is normal.
-The phone may hang on the dual core screen, if so pull the battery.
-The phone will either do two things:
-Bootloop with the US cellular logo
-Boot normally to home screen-In either case, pull the battery and follow the steps to enter RSD mode again.6. Once you are in RSD mode again, flash the Unbrick SBF
-This should not end in an error, but RSD may say you need to manually reboot your phone, this is normal.
-Once your phone reboots you may experience bootlooping, if so do a factory reset (See below)
-With the phone off pess vol-down + power
-Press vol-down until Android Recovery is shown, press vol-up to enter.
-Press both vol-up + vol-down to see menu.
-In the recovery screen, use the volume buttons to scroll and select factory restore.
-Press power to wipe the phone.
-When complete, reboot phone and you should successfully boot to home.7. Once you have flashed the two SBFs, you should be able to get to the stock US Celluar rom.
8. After everything has loaded, you need to obtain root access. (See below)
-Make sure all USB drivers are installed on your computer.
-Enable USB debugging mode on phone (System>Applications>Development)
-Unzip the su.zip on your computer and open root.bat, the program will take you through the rest.9. Once rooted, place the KDDI zip and Peetr’s ROM on either the internal or external storage.
-This is also a good time to install your SIM card.10. Install the Bootstrap recovery and follow the instructions to boot into recovery.
-Remember: You need to be on AC power to get into Bootstrap recovery.11. In recovery, flash the KDDI zip and then Peetr’s ROM
12. After installing the ROM, flash KDDI again.
-Flash KDDI as many times as you want, it will give an error but will still work.13. Reboot phone and enjoy the GSM radio.:highfive:
-If you bootloop again, just do another factory reset. Peetr’s ROM will still be there.
-You may have to root and install Bootstrap again.
-It never hurts to flash KDDI one more time just to be sure.
See next post for Q&A
Q&A
When You’re Done:
Q: How can I go back to Sprint?
A: The only way that worked for me was by flashing 2.3.5. Photon 4.5.1A-1_SUN-254_13 from this thread. This will take the phone back to mostly stock, but there may be residual radio issues.
Q: What carriers can I use now?
A: Any GSM carrier that uses a standard SIM card. These include:
-ATT (3G)
-T-Mobile (2G/EDGE unless you live in a re-farmed area.)
-Straight Talk (3G w/ATT SIM, 2G w/T-Mobile SIM)
Q: Can I unlock my bootloader now?
A: Nope. This only unlocks the GSM radio.
Q: Can I install a different ROM than Peetr’s hybrid?
A: SIM unlocking has only been confirmed to work on Peetr’s locked hybrid rom.
Q: I’m pissed at Motorola for canceling the ICS upgrade. How can I sleep at night?
A: As of right now (and probably forever) there is no way to install any version of Android higher than 2.3.5 on any Photon with the 2.3.5 OTA. However, Peetr’s ROM can be modified to make it look and function like ICS. Planters76 has made an excellent theme for the hybrid ROM that can be flashed in Bootstrap. It can be found here.
Once you flash that theme there are several applications on the Play Store that replicate the ICS/JB experience. Developer Moblynx offers replacements for the clock, camera and gallery. Mobint Software makes home and lockscreen replacements as well. I’m not affiliated with these developers, but their work is solid. This is as close as were going to get to ICS on 2.3.5.
Q: Which developers contributed to this?
A: halfevildruid, mof9336, peetr_, Noncs, Lightsword1942, Planters76, and many others. If anyone else would like to be mentioned, let me know and I’ll add you in. Without these developers we’d be left out in the cold, so give them some thanks.
Q: Who are you and what are you doing here?
A: I am not a developer myself, so just think of me as the person gathering all of the information and trying to simplify it. I can’t stand planned obsolescence, so the Photon is a sore point for me. I’ve stayed in the shadows before now because I haven’t had a reason to speak up, but the locked down OTA and cancelled ICS update bugged the hell out of me. I was in the first soak test for the 2.3.5 OTA, so I had no warning that Motorola was about to screw me and many others. If I can help anyone else that was locked down eek any more life from their phones, then I’ve done my job.
Q: I’m lost! Can you help?
A: Just reply with your questions and I’ll try my best. Keep in mind that I am not a developer, so there are some questions I may not have an answer to.
Finally, if anyone finds any incorrect information in my post or some other error, please let me know so I can fix it. I’d like to prevent any unnecessary phone damage if possible.
Works great. thanks.
now 3G shows 4 bars instead of 1 earlier.
I had to use libmoto_198_7
peetr's ROM is cool. and I like the keyboard!
great work.
Works, but WIFI shows error
I followed the steps and I have my Sprint Photon working in AT&T. But the issues is, the Wifi shows error and doesnt start at all. is there something that can be fixed. Also, How can I get my Google Play up and running. The market icon in the stock Peeters ROM doesnt seem to work and time and again just goes to a browser Window.
Thanks a lot for compiling the steps here...
The combination of a WiFi and apk error makes me think that the ROM needs to be flashed again. Also try downloading a new copy of the zip in case the first one was corrupted. If that doesn't fix it, there was another zip floating around the dev forums that fixed WiFi and MMS issues on the USC ROMs. The file is USCMMSWIFI.zip, I just don't know exactly where it is. As for Play store issues, look around for a recent copy of vending.apk or a flashable zip version and install it manually.

flashing 2.3.5_45.4.13ota_unbrick.sbf at the end fixes wifi issues.
Thanks portman and makakalo. I will do the same. I found the USCMMSWIFI.zip, but it is not in a SBF fashion. Any steps that I could follow to include this fix would help me. Thanks again and Merry Christmas!!
Reflashing Peetr's ROM didnt help with Wifi
I reflashed Peetr's ROM, but still stuck with WiFi Error...Installed USCMMSWIFI.zip using Bootstrap Receovery Mode and the installation completed. Yet, Wifi Error is persistent and cant use Wifi
If you haven't already done so, do what portman suggested and flash the unbrick sbf again. If that still doesn't fix it the only other thing I can think of is going back to stock and redoing the entire process. You may need the 254_12 radio sbf and libmoto zip as well as the 254_13 modules zip to completely reset. Those files are in the 2.3.5 sv2 unbrick thread in the dev forum.

Thanks for putting this together, I am still waiting on my SIM, should be in the mail today.
Just one question on the root method..does it really mater which root method I use?
The last time I rooted this phone I used torpedo direct v1.1
I seem to be stuck in the unbrick sbf??
Manually powered up my phone a couple of times.
Never mind stuck in bootloop...DOH!

Something strange
I was stuck in a bootloop after flashing the Hybrid ROM/kddi and I could not even get to bootstrap soo, I went back to the beginning and after the first SBF step the phone starts normally and my baseband is N_02.29.04P.
Now I have a US cellular phone with a GSM radio:silly:
The phone is not rooted at this time nor did I run the unbrick sbf.
I am tempted to use it like this to see if I can activate it on my carrier...heh why not.
Update:So what does the unbrick do? Do I need to run it?
wifi works now and it did not work before the phone seems fine, still want to root and load bootstrap though.
My carrier cannot activate me until after the holiday, but the phone shows me on the Tmo network.
After flashing the unbrick sbf, my phone is probably bricked as it is now stuck on : Failed to boot 4, starting RSD mode
Any idea how to recover ?
Thanks !

The failed to boot 4 means there's a problem with that partition meaning, whether its corrupt or not there, it just won't boot and will relay that if to you.
To recover, I'd imagine that you need to try the steps over after wiping your data/cache but to make sure that the phone boots after flashing a full sbf.

I flashed the 254 before and it was a no go for the radio.
I just did a backup and just to be clear on what I need to do:
wipe data/cache/dalvik
flash hybrid ROM
flash 198_7
flash 254_12
flash radio
and I should be golden, correct?

as a side note:
the phone is currently working great with the usc rom except the network shows T-Mobil the 'e' gets loped off and I have not actually activated the phone yet because my carrier was closed yesterday(wonder why) they said after Wednesday I should get an email.

Thank God, I thought I was the only one with the T-mobil issue. It happens on every ROM. I noticed if I dial *#*#4636#*#* and go to phone info, it sticks the e on the end for a little while but other than that, I randomly have it.
