Request for a MOD. Please HELP. - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The soft soft keys in my Atrix 4G is not working due to a probable Digitiser problem. I cannot buy the same as delivery to my country is not available in Ebay.
I am thinking if someone can write a MOD wherby VOL- key would emulate the back key function of the soft key and VOL+ key as Settings of the soft keys, I might be able to use my phone. Presently I am not able to use the phone at all.
Some Developer PLEASE HELP. I simply love my Atrix I do not want to let go.

You are just not happy because I asked that you remove GAPPS from your ROM because you were breaking the rules too.

Come on, let's keep it on topic guys

if u have xrecovery installed, the way to get into is by the presssing the back button when the sony ericsson logo comes on. if u havent got xrecovery installed u can do so by using flashtool

If you truly want to help your friend and she is the legal owner of the phone you/she can do one of two things.....
ask Google to reset the password for your friend using a computer or since you appear to be so kind on our phone internet connection. She can the use it to get OR
go to her service provider to help her .... any other method you seek could make it look rather suspicious .. hope she comes out right

I believe you. Keeping aside the statement, follow the instructions mentioned below:
Tell your friend to use the computer to reset the password. It is not x10 fault but hers and she has to reset her password from gmail.
If that is a problem, take x10 to SE ASS and tell them to format it and use a diff email address.

Current information on NV FLASH RECOVERY Manang

Any solution for recovery mode NVFLASH
on the screen of my Atrix says:
SVF: 105.1:2
Failed to boot 0 * 1000
NVFLASH Entering Recovery Mode
Batery is too low to flash
what were you trying to do when this happened?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
You hard bricked. There's no fix. Either exchange your phone if you can, or buy a new one.
so no one has figured out how to fix this yet, people have figured it out with other phones using external equipment, what's so different about the ATRIX?
Erebus671 said:
okay, I am seeing this alot, but everyone else unit seems to shut off before anything can happen, mine does not, it simply stays on. That being said, I am conducting an experiment, since my ATRIX was afflicted I baught a new one because I liked the webtop idea, so im charging my new one to 100% and then im going to swap out batteries and check the results. Has anyone seen any evidence at all that might suggest a possible fix? I will update you guys on the results of my experiment once completed, hopefully I can come across something that will lead someone to a fix if not find one myself.

http://briefmobile.com/motorola-atrix-4g-system-boot-file-sbf-leaked
would this do the job
Negative my friend. Although the sbf (single binary file, not system boot file) is essential to the phone, it will only work if the phone is softbricked (bootloop or just stuck on M dualcore technology screen), not hardbricked (nvflash screen.) You will also need a dev cable to fix this. Remember we are looking for the secure boot key, not the single binary file. Good attempt though. Keep me updated if you find anything else. Pm me if needed.

Go ahead, let us know how it goes. By the way, are you also going to tell them that you voided your warranty by rooting and unlocking your bootloader? Cause when you ask for the sbk, you wont need to tell them that, they'll know automatically. Not to be rude... just saying

So? That doesn't mean they will be pissed. They are people just like the rest of us. Im sure they don't care that some people unlock their bootloaders. We're still buying and using their hardware. Ill try to get a contact. I might apply to Motorola mobility for an internship also.

I work with a lot of motorola canopy (wireless point to multipoint and BH stuff not a lot to do with phones) but my point with this is i have talked to asked many of thier engineers a lot of simple questions for similar problems and usually get laughed at so dont hold to many high hopes for calling up there and them handing you the keys lol

Its not that they will get pissed, they'll simply tell you that you've voided your warranty, probably laugh at you for even trying to ask and then hang up on you. But hey, by all means, who knows what could happen, and if you manage to get that internship, then you could probably get access to that sbk for us. Not likely though, but still, good luck with that.

EDIT... Just noticed your other thread asking the same thing. So I can understand the posts you got here, but since that was also one of the threads where I thought the answer was, your search for qualified assistance may require a bit more effort and politeness on your part, even if others are being rude.
Honestly, if you do a search and read a bit, like the forum rules say to do, before posting, you will find that this has been asked and well answered in another thread where name calling wasn't resorted to. Sorry I don't remember the answer, but I think it was just like flashing any other tab. Don't take that as a legit answer though because my memory fails often. I do know I have seen this asked and answered several other times though.
So for the best results do a search. Really, it works.

Why thank you good sir Benz
Then again, recovery mode has always been the straightforward thing to do, it's just timing, I did a little research on I/O edition to check for differences and it seems there is not much that's different, the recovery kickup is the same, Vol Down+ Power {When the device is off}, Then again, you shouldn't have USB plugged in when you do it as it conflicts with the key combo.
The thread I linked you describes the same method for kicking it into recovery, he is also an owner of an I/O series, I wish I had one to make it easier but sadly I can't see where your issue lies, but I am willing to stick by till you get this done right, Hope that helps.
Fitz
Thank u guys I really appreciate it..I tried the power + volume key with/without USB plugged in and all that pops up is the downloading mode and USB icon..like I said I've had many Samsung phones and never had a problem lol but I'll update u guys n thanks for the support

Until someone suggests flashing a kernel or ROM.
Also, the rules of the forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?a=81) clearly state to only post once, and in the appropriate forum for your device. You DID read the rules, right? Because by becoming a member of this forum, you agreed to abide by those rules.
Why do we care ? Because only complete idiots spam the board like that. This is one of the reasons why information can be so hard to find here; dumbarses post so much crap useful information gets buried.

I could certainty appreciate your standpoint if say, I bricked my device trying to root it.
Considering the power button broke (and my phone has NEVER been dropped) I dont think it's fair that they refuse to fix a hardware problem because I used my device as it was built to be used.
