Been running stock rooted ics for a while and decided to try out a rom. I decided to try simplex rom. Well i decided to go back to my backup using safestrap. Well i booted in safestrap wiped and applied the back up. Now on reboot it goes to the M logo then screen goes black? What did i do wrong and what to fix it? I am downloading some things but not sure what i need to do?
thanks
Hi
Try to wipe cache/dalvik. If it don't boot. I think you'll need to flash a stock rom.
What's your razr ? verizon, att, latam...
Cheers
Sorry, i meant to include vzw. Safestrap recovery dont even show up now on boot? So i dont know how to flash the stock rom?

Thanks, downloading the firmware. But how do i use it? Load it RSD in ap mode??

I guess the title should be changed into "How to flash with RSD" or something like that.
I have taken Screens for an step by step Guide, but not sure if we need an second one. I guess not

Thank you so much guys for the links and your patients! Once it downloads i will follow the helpful guide. I hate that my back up didnt work :/
That's not my Guide, but it's realy helpful for people that not confirmed with RSD.
So hit the Thanks Button in the linked Thread :thumbup:
BTW: An Factory Reset before RSD is never wrong, just to be clean and save.

The above guide is also in the link Ive provided.

any idea why my back up didnt work? would it be due to the bootloader change from the simplex rom? If that is the case ,do you think i can try the back again?

Hi can any Dev make a cwm flashable stock rom zip? Back to 1.8.3 . So we do not have to keep using rsd when we don't like or would like to change the rom. This might already be a work in progress I'm not sure. I for one would like to have one. Thank you devs for all of your hard work into getting this ATRIX phone unlocked and rooted

Can't you use CWM to do a nandroid backup/restore of 1.8.3? I thought you could but haven't tried it, so if anyone can confirm that would be nice.

Never even thought about doing that , sometimes the best answer is the simplest things. And yes if someone could please comfirm that this works , this would be much appreciated.
It does be sure to wipe everything before restoring 1.8.3 or it will boot loop. Wrong forum BTW.

Thank you jruweaver, and my apologies on not posting in the right forum.
And could someone post a link to a download for the cwm 1.8.3 AT&T stock rom for clockworkmod recovery.
Is there any way to return to COMPLETE STOCK 2.3.6 ? of course also to be rooted.
Thanks !
Not an OP but extensively read
I would like to know the answer to this also. I've read everywhere and there seems to be lots of warnings involved when going back to a stock room on the Atrix 4G. Is anyone available to confirm?

What are the dangers in flashing with RSDlite ? i flashed my fathers RAZR with it few times..
I have flashed two phones with the stock sbf. I don't know why everyone is freaking out about it. I just flashed a 2nd time to be sure. NO PROBLEMS ......

guide please ?
Download the latest RSD lite.
Install the program on your Windows computer. ( xp works best for me. Sometimes get errors on win7).
Download the 2.3.6 sbf. Make sure it is the one for your carrier.
Open rsd lite.
Select the sbf file.
Start.
That's what I did. It was simple.
A google search could probably find you a better guide though.
Good luck.
As usual, this is what I have done, and I take no responsibility if it doesn't work for you.
Using rsdlite to flash an .sbf is dangerous if you flash one prior to 2.3.4 gingerbread. All others are safe to my knowledge. But using pudding is easier and faster.

Quick note: If you SBF flash a stock ROM while you're on a custom ROM, remember to wipe the data in stock recovery when you're done! :good:
Thanks !
Now, where can i find SBF file which is compatible with ATT Atrix 4G in Israel ?
My carrier is Cellcom but i bought the phone with ATT Rom.
And another q's, if i flash SBF of complete stock 2.3.4, will i be able to use Moto OTA update through the phone to get 2.3.6 ?
Thanks again !

what about one of those ?

Do not use RSD lite and .sbf. do some searching and you will find that Motorola doesn't condone using RSd lite for public use. Flash the appropriate fruitcakes just like you would a rom except wipe the phone completely (especially when you are down grading. If you do use rsd lite and hard brick your phone I will have no sympathy for you as your phone will be a very expensive paper weight. Many many people have already started forum pages on why you should not use rsd lite. Just my opinion... take it or leave it as you may.

Your welcome... didn't mean to come off harsh, but I'd rather sound harsh then have another fellow member hard brick their phone.. use the search and look for fruitcakes... completely safe, just remember to always have a known working backup as always before upgrading or downgrading versions.

I live in Israel and have the ATT atrix 4G running Cm7 now.
The problem with sbf files is if you flash the wrong one. Make sure you have the right one and you will have no problems. Check the other threads. There are alot of us flashing them.
It would solve your problem.

Hello,
I am looking on how to go back to complete stock 2.3.5? Also I have another question? To my understanding the bootloader is locked with 2.3.5 and there is no way to unlock it at the moment? Thanks in advance!

Yes that seems to be the stock system image, just make sure you have the corresponding version of ROM, check those numbers at your phone info, it should be SUN-254_13. And yes, if you won't be able to boot you can make full restore using RSD Light - check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1798145

You can flash official JB with RSD Lite via computer/laptop.
About KK,root the phone,install custom recovery like Safestrap or BootMenuManager and happy flashing.

Thanks again for the fast reply.
I've rooted the phone and installed CWM on it.
Flashed KK rom and the phone just crashed.
I needed to recover it using RSD Lite.
Then I tried to compare the process to my Motorola Photon's process, and realized that the Razr's bootloader is locked. So how will any custom recovery manage to install a different kernel rom on the device (without unlocking the bootloader) ?
Thank you very much. :good:

Don't use any other recovery except SS and BMM.
I can't explain proffesional but they allow custom roms to boot with the custom (kexec) kernel.
Most people around here are using SS,I prefer BMM but the support for it is discontinued,don't worry,just use one of them.
And read a little before you start anything
