[Q] Can I flash an international .sbf? - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm living in France and I've bought an AT&T Atrix.
I've unlocked the bootloader.
Everything is working except the data.
So I'd like to if I can flash 1FF-olympus_emara-user-2.3.4-4.5.2A-74_OLE-31-release-keys-signed-rtfr.sbf (Retail France 2.3.4 / 45.31.0) with rsdlite.
Is it possible without brick?

Shiro tutorial! The best.

His tuto is for French tuto....
Mine is AT&T's.
And is there an other answer?

My Atrix is neverlocked, retail East Europe. Im not living in France. For me, Shiro tutorial, work perfect!
Your Atrix work in France. Yes? Maybe just brand AT&T and your phone is neverlocked. And maybe posible flash sbf.
Your phone, locked factory and after neverlocked? Or neverlocked factory?
Just my opinion!!! Sorry! Risk it's yours!
Sorry, for bad english"

What do you mean with "neverlocked"?

Signal phone, only AT&T, locked.
Signal phone, for all networks, neverlocked.
Sent from my MB860 using xda app-developers app

Everything is unlocked, so my phone is neverlocked.
This is just the data which is not sensitive.
I have tried to change radio, but always the same.

In my opinion, I'm not see why you can't try flash sbf.
Risk is yours, but good luck!
Sent from my MB860 using xda app-developers app

I wouldn't want to brick my phone, that's why I ask.
I'd like to have a certain answer.

Sorry! You will never be sure.
There will always existe a risk.
Is good to try at a specialized service.
If it can be done, thay will doit!
Good luck!

[Q] works motorola photon for 3g MoviStar venezuela?

My question is if the motorola photon after release Sprint works on 3 g MoviStar venezuela gsm. Sorry for my English but is translator
I wish i could help you but language barrier may be a problem
Right now there's a thread for unlocking the gsm radios. You'd have to get them unlocked to use gsm on another network i believe. So until they are unlocked you probably cant use them. Sorry

Sprint Motorola Photon 4G Accidentally Flashed [2.3.5][SV2]Custom SBF files

How can I fix my sprint motorola photon 4g phone after flashing the us cellular rom on it? HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP
Get replacement if you have tep or send to Motorola to get it fix. Use your common sense what you would say to describe the problem. Otherwise there is no fix.

If it's the 2.3.5 you're locked for good. Get a replacement. Not sure how so many people accidentally flash the electrify sbf's to the photon...

It's not so much different phone, problem is, that it's 2.3.5 and we don't have any 2.3.5 for photon for reflash.
It's not bricked, you just need to learn some steps to bring it back to sprint services.

Hi peetr! Thank you for your responce. My system build before flashing was (198_7)-1FF-sunfire-user-2.3.4-4.5.1A-1_SUN-198_7-CM-release-keys-signed-Sprint-US.sbf This is what I was on before I rsd'ed the 1FF-sunfire-user-2.3.5-4.5.1A_SUN_USC_19.0-19-release-keys-signed-USC-US
I accidentally flashed my photon to the 2.3.5.usc electrify rom as well and would love a solution if there is one besides taking it back to sprint. I believe my warranty is voided now and being a full time student i can't afford to pay for them to fix my phone. any solutions ?
Talk to motorola, just tell them phone doesn't work. I got new refurbished phone from them.

dont mean to sound short, but the seller dropped the ball and this was going to be and currently is my only phone
My guess is it's a latam phone, what version does it say in phone info?
You could always get an unlock code if you really need it.
Was it new or used? If new would you mind if i know how much you paid for it?

I got one on eBay from the Claro network in Puerto Rico (new in box). Paid $420 shipped. It's awesome. It runs the LATAM version of Android.
Your first order of business (trust me on this) is to visit this thread and flash 4.0.4:

that's not a bad price, as for the unlock i can't help you. i got it on plemix and hoped it was really unlocked (alot of sellers from what i've read say unlocked when it isn't)
Claro is giving RAZRs for free here in Puerto Rico, and people are selling them to get a better phone.
I don't like the idea that after I payed for mine now a lot of people have it and they don't know everything about the phone.
They sell cheap in the classifieds here.

Is there any way i can give you my imei and you get it unlocked. Ill pay $$$

Not really. If gsmliberty doesn't sell this service better u can do is to ask ur razr seller for a code or directly contac original carrier for an unlock code.
Btw, check ur warranty status on motorola support website.

Finally got it unlocked at cellunlocker.net. thats not me trying to advertise for them but they were the only ones able to do it. Choose manufacturer unlock and thats more accurate.

[Q] Photon in South Africa

I am selling my Motorola Photon 4G on Craigslist, and I had a guy call and ask something that I did not know how to answer. He was wondering if he could unlock it and use this phone in South Africa. I am running firmware version 2.3.5. The company he would be going through is Vodacom. To get to his specific branch's website, you have to add a .cd to the end of the name instead of com. I honestly don't know if it is possible, and if it is not, then I guess I am open to anyone wanting to buy the phone on here. Thanks for your help.
Phone is capable of international gsm usage as well as domestic

First off, thanks for the quick response. So, just to clarify, will he need to unlock it at all?Or can he just put a sim card in from that company and it will work? Thanks

Welcome
Sent from my MB855 using xda app-developers app
To clarify, it can do domestic GSM only with the KDDI radio (which isn't hard to flash, but kills Sprint functionality, can be regained). In countries other than the US, this is not an issue, and the photon will be able to use all features of the GSM carrier (other than 4g wimax) with proper APNs.
Photon can work on any network i must say.

OK thanks but quick question since I'm on T-Mobile network to I flash tmobile modems or at&t modems?

They will be under downloads if u used ur phone to download them.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Well I tried flashing the T-Mobile modems but when I reboot I don't have service so I guess I should flash the at&t modems since it is the at&t phone guess it doesn't matter I'm using tmobile service
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
It does matter what modem you use and it depends on your location. ANY and ALL modems should give you phone service at least. So you have a problem. A problem talked about much many months ago. Again Backup, wipe completely, and install the factory ATT ROM using odin. Before you set it up do a factory reset for ****z and giggles. Verify that you have phone service. Then install recovery and superuser. Then install a T-mobile modem. Verify you have data and phone service. Then install the ROM of your choice. Do not reinstall a modem.
And please quit posting everywhere. You have been told what to do by a few now and all you do is rant everywhere. Maybe you should have purchased a T-mobile phone to use on T-mobile and saved yourself the trouble.
Yea but they charged more for the t-mobile version ima prolly wait and sell this one for 300 and put that with my check 2 hrs pf battery life is sad i thought the note would be better then that lol but i already did all that and i know im in a t-mobile 4g area cuz i had a t-mobile phone before and i tried all the modems they are not compatible for this phone im thinking the guy lied to me i think o might have a foreign phone again

even reading your posts, its like your going 1000 mph with you hair on fire.
I will ask again, did you go to Super everything thread?
you have ATT phone, use ATT modems. if you are that hellbent on using Tmobile, have you done the SIM unlock???
"Super Everything" is just that. it has everything. I just cant help but think you want everything and you want it yesterday. relax, people will help you.
But i have a tmobile sim though besides i couldn't find any att modems

super everything, and look for SIM unlock.
this will instruct you how to unlock from ATT (getting a code from them) then unlock.
just read it the yesterday as a matter of fact. RANGER CAPTAIN is the author of the thread. in the first post, scroll down a bit and it is listed with some MOD's.
titled "UOCKING STEPS"
once unlocked, then you can put your Tmobile SIM in. as he states this only needs to be done once. you can then flash other ROM's and the process should stick.
good luck
Thanks man sorry for being a noob lol

by the way, if you e spending a lot of time in recovery or constantly flashing something, your battery is going to SUPER SUCK.
your battery should be in the higher end of charged when flashing. recommended 70% or better. could probably get away with 55 or 60 though. again, every time you flash, you take a hit.
Ah ok but a friend of mine used it today it was fully charged went from 100% to 5% in like an hr and 45 min and i was reading on the sim unlock this phone was already unlocked when i purchased it that's how i was able to get t-mobile on this phone i get 4g but it doesn't stay connected i have to restart a lot to get it connected again and most of the time i have no bars so idk maybe i should stop buying unlocked phones lol
