Guid me please :) - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello there , I want to root and unlock my Atrix4g but I'm not sure which atrix i have because i see they are saying a bunch of stuff bell/int/at&t .. ect so how to know mine ? my android version 2.3.4 , Sys version : 45.31.0.MB860.MERetail.en.06 build : 4.5.2A-74_OLE-31
would you please link me a root and unlock guide for that would be much appreciate it .

Any ATRIX which is not branded "AT&T" are international atrixes.

Your phone need to be rooted.
Now open it and type:
SU (SU will request root acess, allow)
cat /proc/cmdline
Search for D00, OR 1100 OR ATT. (Ex.: tegrapart=mbr:D00:100:800). If yours are D00 or 1100, your Atrix is Bell. If ATT, it's AT&T.

...What?!
Quit trolling and spreading misnformation. No Atrix in the world has ATT there. Do you even know what the tegrapart value means?

Excuse me, i haven't tried this process in a lot of Atrixes hehe but i'm not trolling. The few times I did it, i had international atrix in hands. Maybe none in the world has ATT there, but i learned that if it shows D00 or 1100, then it's BELL.
I didn't mean to spread misinformation, just to help. What are the value for ATT Atrix?

So Im international right ? can you link me something about rooting and unlocking the int atrix4g please

For rooting, I've used this:

Although it doesn't support the ATRIX, it worked flawless for me. Got me rooted in minutes (It won't work on Android 2.3.6 BTW)
Can't find the guide I used for bootloader unlocking yet, I'll update when I find it

Please read up on everything before giving out advice. Tegrapart tells NOTHING about the origin of the device and is therefore irrelevant. Both international and AT&T devices can have either value. I have an AT&T branded Atrix and my tegrapart is 1100.

[Q] how can i know if an ulocked Atrix is the AT&T one or not

Hi! I have been here a while now and i think this is my firs post....
Well... I got an Atrix that is unlocked and has the a custom rom and i would like to know if this is the international model or the At&t one ( i would not like to brick it doing something i shouldnt do)
Is there any way to find out??
If i Code:
su
cat /proc/cmdline
i get :tegrapart=mbr:1100:100:800,kpanic:2500:400:800:
What else i can check??
Thanks in advance!!!
Search reveals that most likely it's an international phone:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1169409
Hi SSPA!!! What should i get if it was an AT&T??
mine is an AT&T and I saw this:
tegrapart=mbr:d00:100:800,kpanic:2100:400:800
but the same string could be found on international phones too, as the thread above shows.
Actually I found mbr:1100 could be found on AT&T phone too. So it's not a reliable way to identify the source of your phone.
ok thanks!

Change Atrix 4G AT&T to International?

So I just got a 4G AT&T Atrix, and I would like to change it to an international version.
Can I just flash an SBF for the international version or will there be any problems with that?
Hi,
You can go ahead without problems, I use an AT&T in France.

Thanks, but I still do not know, if I can flash an international SBF? Do you use the original US SBF or another one?
Edit : wrong information.
"Sorry, I was not clear.
I use the French SBF on my AT&T Atrix.
So you can go.
Regards"
Good information : I have just check and doesn't see the Android 2.3 for France.
That mean I'm on the US one. I have flash a custom ROM (Neutrino) and set the French APN.
Long time...

Ok, thank you very much!

[Q] AT&T Xperia X10 Gingerbread Update for a X10 Unlocked By AT&T

My friend had the an unfortunate but common experience with his X10.
Its an at&r version, and he finally got the 2.1 update only to see "X10 gets gingerbread" plastered all over every android news site. After calling at&t and Sony Ericson, and after being transferred to manager and manager, they emailed him instructions on how to "unlock" his phone to get the gingerbread update.
In the instructions, it tells him that he needs a sim from another carrier. The problem is, in our area, only at&t and Verizon are prevalent. From my old Nokia days, I thought an unlock code was an unlock code. You unlocked the code and then were free to use it on any sim supported carrier with a device with compatible frequencies. I've never actually heard of an unlock that required an alternative sim to complete the unlock process. Nor have I heard of a phone that after it was unlocked, would receive an update.
Is this true? If it is, we have no chance at doing this the legit way. Which method of root, and which ROM would give us the easiest time, and the closest to stock experience. He isn't necessarily the techiest, but loves Sony. Were not necessarily looking for the most features, but would greatly appreciate if he could upgrade to gingerbread.
I'm not an expert by any means, but I have rooted, flashed, and installed ICS and customs rooms on my Transformer mainly using Clockwork Recovery. I've also rooted, flashed a custom over clock kernel, and pushed modified files over ADB on my AT&T Galaxy Note, released a mere fees days ago. This should give you an idea of our experience level.
There are dozens of Roms and sites with tutorials, but they're all convoluted and don't take into account the presence of other methods and rom to explain why their's is better. They also don't tell us when they're outdated.
So, to the point, and to sum it all up: does this sum unlock allow for a blessed OTA update? If we actually need another carriers sim, were out of luck. In that case, which method and rom would be easiest to root, and then flash. Is a from like cyanogenmod (seemingly the go to for handsets) available? I don't have a Rosetta stone for X10 roms , recoveries, and root methods.
Thanks very much.
At&t has no plans on releasing 2.3 I have no idea what an unlock code has to do with an update.
I upgraded my att stock x10 2.1 to 2.3 without a problem. I flashed using the North American 2.3 found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=936733 You'll have to look at all the pages to find a working download.
I also got the flash tool from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746

Root and Unlock Galaxy S3 i747?

Hi,
i just got i747 Galaxy S3 from Bell i would like to root and unlock it.
I also i have figured out that the CM8 for i9300 is not compatible with i747.
Is there a ClockworkMod version for i747 available?
Can it be rooted and unlocked?
I would like to use it on Fido.
thank you.
I cannot find any tutorial how to root and unlock i747.
Thanks.
I am afraid there is nothing for the I748 version yet.
Only the international version had root so far.....
I am afraid you are going to have to wait.....
EDIT :

So I'm assuming that currently there's no way to sim unlock an i747m for free then.. right?
Also, I noticed Bell and Rogers are i747m and Telus is i747d. What exactly is the difference between the two?
Looking at this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27938452&postcount=2
Is it safe to assume that I can buy any unlocked Bell/Rogers/Telus Galaxy S3 from kijiji and expect LTE to work on Rogers correct?

If iam not wrong there is no hardware difference between those i747's mostly it's the software which makes the difference.
My concern is more now should i sell my Bell i747m or not? Cannot use the phone at all since iam on Fido. I would rather buy then the international i9300 Galaxy S3 rather spending 33$ to unlock the phone.
I can sell it then for the same price and buy then the i9300.
Iam not sure if its even possible to unlock the i747m at all via a app or patch. I cannot find any info about it
I got Bell S3 as well and so far I747M model dont have this nv_data.bin file for unlock. But someone already send the Bell file to developers so they can come up with the unlock app. : (
http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180992127295&ssPageName=ADME:X:AAQ:CA:1123
I got my Bell s3 unlocked with this guy. So when you buy his service from ebay, he then will send you an email what tools you need to download and install ( teamviewer and usb redirector). Also if you are lucky, he will reply to you immediately and letting you know that he is onlin. Make sure you have different sim card. Pretty easy instruction. : )
I don't know why people are okay with these ebay sellers/unlock sites, most of them are illicitly accessing the handset manufacture's database and billing you for it, unfortunately telus has a $50 unlock fee for no reason other then that they can. If anyone could create a free sim unlock solution we would be much better off, lets stop looking for the best of the worst in these expensive unlock codes and just wait for the excellent devs to come up with a solution, I just feel dirty supporting those people... Anyone agree?
Unlock
Hello XDA members,
This is my 1st post on this website. I just wanted to let you know that the I747 from AT&T Galaxy S3 (locked) that I bought from eBay (which was new btw) was unlocked via software that I paid from this site called Unlockclient.com and it works. It took less than 5 minutes to permanently unlock my phone. It has all the versions of the I747/M/R. Thank you all for this awesome website.
