[Q] What to do now? - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been doing lots of research on here, and am still unclear what my steps to fix my bosses Atrix 4G should be....
He was attempting to root it and put an ICS ROM on it and 'soft bricked' it based on what I have read here. What I am unclear on is what he has done so far, and what steps I should take next. This was done a couple months ago by him so he cannot find the info he was using when this happened.
At this point I do not know if the bootloader is unlocked or not, or what steps to take. Here is the screenshot of the boot menu:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I know I need to get the battery charged, as it isn't charging now in it's current state.
Any help/guidance is appreciated.

Boot into fastboot mode and do the fastboot oem unlock command.

Hi, i have that problem once, and my solution was to download a fruit cake, download the motorola rsd lite, installed the drivers, start the rsd protocol in the phone and flash, like I tell you, it worked for me... since you can't charge the battery on the phone, should use and external charger and with that you can proceed.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I managed to get the bootloader unlocked using a script I found on here and it appears to be booting to the stock ROM. Can't tell because it's my bosses phone and I need to put his SIM in it to go any farther.
Should I be putting CWM or something on here instead of just using the boot menu options at power-up?
Now, I just need to find a good ICS Rom to put on here that still allows the fingerprint reader to work... any suggestions?

you'll need CWM to flash a custom ROM. the only ICS ROMs that have working fingerprint scanner would be the leaked ones, but they also have a lot of problems for most people. i would personally suggest using Epinter's CM10, it's 90% functional (no stock video recording, or fingerprint scanner, and loss of webtop)

Darn... was hoping there was a good CM9 or CM10 ROM that worked good and had the fingerprint reader working. Thanks for the info, I'll keep an eye on the Epinter's CM10 like you suggested... hopefully they will get it working sooner rather than later.
