Ota updates question? - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I made a orange uk 2.2.2 stock froyo.
There doesn't seem to be any 4.4.20.en gb fruitcakes about.
I can download the update but how would I go about installing the update without bricking? So I can gain a stock orange uk gb version fruitcake?

In theory you should be able to install an AT&T GB fruit cake and make the appropriate mods to work with your carrier (or whatever carrier). When kyler084 made his UK Froyo fruitcake, AT&T users got it working just fine apparently.

Yeah there never was a orange uk stock 2.3.6 thats why im doing one for uk users.
Got froyo just need to upgrade now to 2 .3.4 then to 2.3.6 to gain the appropriate fruitcakes for each version.
Can I aadd the system folder in ota to the already 2.2 .2 or does all files need to be patch so need to use the system folder with all files ending in. P?

I understand now. I assumed this was for cheesecaking. Good luck. UK fruit cakes are definitely needed.

[Q] 1.83 and sim-unlocked phones

Has anyone with a sim-unlocked Atrix upgraded to 1.83 yet? If so, were there any issues? I recall some people with unlocked atrix had problems with their wifi after upgrading to 1.57, so i'm quite worried something like that might happen again.
I can confirm there is no problem after updating to 1.83.I have my phone rooted wifi works fine.everything right now works perfect

Everything is fine
I am sim-unlocked and on T-mobile and everything works fine on 1.83. Just flash the SBF file through RSD Lite and you're golden. I'm on stock motoBLUR by the way.
Just for another hat in the ring- Telstra user with at&t phone running 1.8.3 with root on sim unlocked phone and no issues. I guess its just irony I can't use the Telstra firnware on ny phone- lol.

I don't think you are going to have any issue,but if you need root i think you should try first to root 1.57 and then update through rsd lite.
Thank you for the info. I am downloading the sbf. Will update this thread when i update to 1.83.
Thanks again guys for this wonderful forums!!

[Q] About the OTA 2.3.4

I think i might have been one of the dumb ones to do the .zip flash of the BETA #3 gingerbread update. I searched and noticed the only way to go back to 2.2 was to unlock 1st. the question is when the official moto 2.3.4 comes out will i be able to update to that version without any issues via OTA?
I know some maybe running soak versions which may prevent them from reverting back to 2.2 as well. So do you guys think moto or the devs will figure a way for those that didn't root/unlocked before doing the update.zip to start recieving OTAs?
If ur on kens beta going back to stock will work and stock is the way you'll get the ota until it comes out as an sbf to flash

I'm not on kens. i did the update i believe before kens was available. is there a way to go through kens route since i'm already on the stock 2.3.4?
If you flashed the stock OTA that was leaked, you risk bricking when flashing back.
Moto's OTA is designed to prevent backwards flashing.
I believe they found a way through pudding look on kens roms thread and there should be a link on how ti do so if nit there go to the calling all hardbricks post and do the steps there to prevent bricking

what if i just want to get the offcial ota when it is released. would i still be in luck or still need to unlock and root?

Can you flash back to Gingerbread from the official OTA?

I have a rooted Atrix on Official at&t 2.3.4 OTA.
bootloader locked
webtop unavailable.
I read you can flash gingerbread on top of this OTA? is this true?
can I use rsd to flash back to a clean copy of gingerbread or will I hard brick?
please point me to the correct thread....
Me too
I want to know too.. Except mine is unlocked and rooted on Stock GB
Can I "Clean Format" GB
If you're on 2.3.4 OTA then you're on gingerbread. What are you wanting to do?

SO if I flash the leaked 2.3.4 on top of my OTA 2.3.4 with RSD it wont brick? I'm guessing itll just reinstall?
Edit: All I want to know is if I can flash the leaked version on top of the OTA withou bricking so this way I can unlock the BL and get some ROMS....I just dont want to end up using RSD to flash 2.3.4 and end up with a paper weight

Look in the stickies section of Atrix development forum. And find the sbf for unlocked bootloader. Or if u just want the blur UI try the Aura Rom. It has a lot of mods but the theme is basically stock.

You will never get brick by flashing/restoring through recovery.

hey, I think i have the same problem, i have an atrix with cyanogenmod-7-12112011-nightly-olympus, Android version 2.3.7
And i would like to know if its posible to get the original settings if I back up another atrix from the same carrier (telcel - MExico), so i can get rid of the cyanogen and i can have it with factory settings.
If its posible, can anyone help me and tell me how to do it?
thank you very much

Fruit Cakes vs SBF on atrix 4G

hi i have an ATT atrix and installed multiple roms now i want back to stock ATT rom but i got confused so whats the diference using Fruit Cake or a SBF. Dont remember if original rom had webtop or not since i unlocked, rooted, flashed from the firs day i got it. It was on ATT 2.3.4 [4.5.91]
Fruitcakes are safer to use and they have webtop fixes in one of the fruitcake dl link threads...
