[Q] Flash to stock - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I cant remember if i was running the 2.3.4 or 2.3.6 when i unlocked my bootloader, and im trying to figure out witch sbf i need to get. any suggestions?

I have the same question. bought the phone from a member and have no idea what is was on.
Thanks.

UPDATE
I just flashed the latest 2.3.6 sbf. Everything went fine. So it seems either I guessed right, or you can flash the newer ones no problem.

[Q] flash att 2.3.4 over HKTW?

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?

Help upgrading to Alien!

Hey guys, so Ive been out of the country for about a month and came back to an overwhelming amount of roms and upgrades.
so Im running the leaked Hong Kong version back when it was the first 2.3.4 to release and flashed it using fastboot (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1138092)
i never upgraded to .91 but Im running the new radio and romracer CWM.
to upgrade to Alien, can i simply flash it using cwm even though im running the really buggy 2.3.4 from a month ago, or should i upgrade to the official .91? i held back from doing that because of the hard brick problem
im familiar with fastboot and adb commands but I just need a quick step by step to get from where i am to running alien or any 2.3.4 based rom
thanks!

Since your already unlocked and have RomRacers CWM installed, I'd just flash 2.3.4 fruitcake, to get to a more stable version of 2.3.4 first.... like sbf flashing, but without the need for RSD lite.

flashing to a less buggy .91 can never hurt. ever. ever.

are you running leak ics rom or ics custom rom?
i came back to stock from senseless ics.
what i did was
first, went back to stock rooted by flashing stock kernel and stock rooted rom.
then flashed stock recovery then re-locked the bootloader
then finally flashed ruu.zip from fastboot (1.02.605.6).
stock kernel: team bamf's unsecured stock
stock rooted rom: http://www.scottsroms.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=55
stock recovery: http://db.tt/tw5m33ZG
re-lock bootloader: fastboot oem lock
ruu.zip: http://www.scottsroms.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=38
or ruu.exe: http://www.scottsroms.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=37
I currently have the CleanRom ICSE 2.3, and would like to go back to the rooted stock rom, will this guide work for me...
thanks guys... im not re locking bootloader since what i really wanted was getting back to gb from ics.. and that guide up here worked... thanks
im running a gb rom now it boots and all work good but i cant still upgrade kernels.. i did everything with the exception of locking bootloader.. when trying to upgrade kernel keeps telling me main version is older?
UPDATE
the only way i can upgrade kernels is by pushing them using adb ..at least it works that way

not sure, but i doubt it will work
since mainver has been updated.
u can still try though.
if it doesn't work, u just need to re-flash
the kernel and the rom i think.

[Q] completely stock 2.3.6 ROM anywhere??

So many threads that I cannot find it. I am currently unlocked on nottachtrix 1.2.9b but it keeps restarting my phone randomly so I want to flash a completely stock ROM, can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks guys!
searching dev forum returned this list of firmwares http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125944. Find your country/carrier and go for it.
As an alternative, I have used Aura (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1186990) and was better than stock for me and includes webtop.
If you feel adventurous again, try miui-us V4 2.3.16 also in the dev forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1383721).
Hope I was able to help
Check the Fruitcake thread, stock roms are there.

You said your atrix is unlocked (or are you on Atrix2 since you mention Supercharged A2?), then root, install romracer's cwm for atrix and use cwm to reset, clear data and cache, then flash a rom of your choice.
All available in the dev section.

I don't have any issues with 1.29b. Maybe flash romracers recovery, do a complete wipe, and flash 1.29b directly.

Downgrading the version risk bricking. I soft bricked mine when I went from 2.3.6(prior to a few ROMs) to 2.3.4.
I would:
Fastboot -w
RSD Lite flash 2.3.6 from //sites.google.com/site/motosbf/atrix-sbf-files (Sorry, I don't have enough posts to be allow to make links)
I found this on one of the topics here:
//dropbox.com/s/eps7ldsn9n5sqlc/At%26t 236-45-141_deodexed.zip
copy after // because I can't post links.
I'm yet to try it on my Atrix but will do very soon

i have statusbar issues with that one...
I fixed the restarts by flashing the 2.3.6 sbf (not pudding), and I left it like that... no more unlock since I believe that was the issue. Every ROM I tried had the same results

Yes. You can download the 2.3.6 fruitcake from fruitcake backup thread and flash via CWM. Then the 2.3.6 webtop and flash via CWM. Remember to perform a full wipe first.

[Q] Which method should I continue with?

Hello all!
My friend just got ICS on his SGSII and he does not like it at all (I have no clue, why).
He wants to downgrade to Gingerbread or Honeycomb instead. Is that even possible without rooting the phone?
And if I root it, how should I proceed? What is the easiest way? I rooted my SGSII a year back, and I have no recollection on how I did it back then. My phone was Gingerbread / Honeycomb back then, and it took me a while to do.
Any ideas is welcome. Thank you!
Downgrade to GB using ODIN. Read this thread, it contains all required information.
Go to intratech thread and flash xwla4 firmware with odin.

The phone crashes, when trying to flash any of those old firmwares 2.3.5 and 2.3.6 ! :-(
Nevermind - I just flashed it with the Gingerbread files from this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457458
Works perfectly now.
