[Q] Atrix update path to Gingerbread - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there everybody!
Quick question.
Does anyone know of an update path to gingerbread for a stock UK orange Atrix.
I'm pretty sure if i use either SBF available they wont let you update OTA. i'd like to see if I can go TRUE stock and update as far as I can.
I'm aware that obviously how far you can go up the update path varies on, how lucky you are (amoung otherthings).

Go to Motorola's website

All you need is a USB cable and Motorola's support download website and it can still be done manually...

Mobile sites causing force close

Certain sites have been causing a force close on my phone whenever I try to open them. So far wired.com crashes whenever I try to open it. Happens in both stock browser and dolphin 6.0. Didn't start doing that until today. Anyone else?

Try clearing the cache of both browsers and reinstall the dolphin browser again and see if that changes anything.

to ota update connect to wifi go to settings>about phone.system updates itl check and download and instal to do the sbf through rsd do this:
download this http://www.mediafire.com/?zz81vf1o2y73d4n
and instal that its rsd next find the ota 1.83 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125944 and download it back up data from your phone and turn it off hold the volume down button and the powr button until u see fastboot in the top right corner with the BOTTOM volume button scroll until u see rsd and use the volume up to select once u select plug ur atrix in to ur computer open rsd lite and pres the butoon with te three dots find the sbf you downloaded and select it and then press start and let it run.
Thank you for the information. I was searching through threads and im under the impression that I will not be able to ota update anymore. Since this phone had previously been rooted?

No audio calls problem!!!

So I just ditched my EVO the other day and picked up this bad boy
I have the latest everything prl profile...
I believe I have the latest software from moto ....it ends with MR1
Correct me if Im wrong
Problem. Is when I make or receive phone calls I get no audio what so ever....only fix I have found is rebooting the phone
I have read a little round here. Sounds like im not the only one....I also have another photon as well. From a different store...my girl and I both have one.....hers does the same thing
Sprint told me this was a known issue and the problem is with Motorola software and are waiting for a update
I read somewhere bout a oem software upgrade that u could manually dl and install ...and further read that they already started implementing in a OTA ....my phone says its up to date...am I tight. Do I have the newest software? ??
If I do I have the newest software ....well the problem still happens....a few times a day....super frustrating
Let me know

I had thought removing the sim had worked (its been 2 days) but i just got the problem again... looks like i'm gunna do the update and hopefully it works
Uhh, I don't have a sig.
If you're not familiar with the "lather/rinse/repeat" line....I cannot help you, you are beyond my abilities to provide assistance.
Thank you, drive thru please.

Q] Looking for us cellular moto Electrify tool kit

Is there a tool kit available to unlock and root this phone. If not maybe a link as to how to do so. Its not gsm and does not have sim card. Its on us cellular and its called Electrify...its my friends phone but jus looking for some 411. I have a Gnexus so not familiar wit moto electrify. Thanx

Stay with the nexus
Sent from my MB855 using xda app-developers app
There's ways to root it for sure. Check the Electrify forum. If your phone is on android 2.3.5 there's a very good chance that you cannot unlock the bootloader, just like us Photon owners..
EDIT: oops i just now realized that there is no electrify forum.
Yup thats what I noticed only photon which is similar... And def staying wit my nexus now running Carbon 4.2.2 ...lol but my buddies got the Electrify. Jus trying to help him out... Thanx

Checked his build ... Its 2.3.5 stock

If he downloaded the ota update he wont be able to unlock
Sent from my MB855 using xda app-developers app
I was lucky and my Electrify came with 2.3.5 and was unlock-able, so of course I did! If you did the update to 2.3.5 from 2.3.4 then you have a locked bootloader, no unlocking. You can download and try as it won't hurt your phone other than error out, make sure you are rooted first. There is a how to on the teamuscellular.com, here is a direct link to the page of the download (mods sorry but this is not hosted here so I hope I am not breaking any rules posting another forum)
