Please help me! Flashing the first rom!! - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys!
I just unlocked my bootloader and installed CWM recovery.
I want to install epinter's JB rom.
What are the steps?
I do this:
-wipe cache
-factory reset ---> there when it is going to finish it goes to the top recovery screen and does not say that it finished successfully
after these steps I tried to install the zip but it said:
-finding update package
-opening update package
-installing update...
symlink: some symlinks failed
E:Error in /sdcard/cm....zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
What should I do?

try with redownloading rom!!
Officially corp via w8

I rebooted into cwm and worked. Now I am stuck at the Moto logo.
Can someone tell me the steps? What to wipe and what to format before flashing the zip??

solved!

how did you solve the stuck at moto screen

It usually happens when a step is overlooked. Can be resolved by retracing your steps. It happened to me once when I forgot to wipe the dalvik cache.

It can be stuck due to multiple reasons.
Perform a clean wipe/erase
Enter into fastboot by holding vol down and push power button
Release volume down and Press volume up to confirm fastboot selection.
Connect Phone with your microUSB cable to PC
Open command prompt and navigate to directory where you copied fastboot
Type these commands
fastboot devices (should display device id if your phone has successfully entered into fastboot mode)
fastboot -w (erases userdata and cache)
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase webtop
fastboot erase preinstall
fastboot reboot (make sure you get into fastboot again)
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (place desired recovery - preferably CWM 5.0.2.7/romracer's)
Boot into recovery and flash the desired ROM from sdcard.
Hope this helps

First, download the latest & most stable ROM (at the moment), including the ROM, GAPPS, recovery-cwm-CM10-A3.img & formatsd.zip
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1864774
Actually, you just need to flash the recovery through fastboot, other else can done in the recovery.
1. Copy all the ROM, GAPPS & formatsd.zip into your memory card. Then insert it into your Folio.
2. Run command prompt, make sure your tablet is connected with your PC in fastboot mode.
To erase existing/stock recovery. In command prompt, go into the fastboot program folder and type the following commands
Code:
fastboot erase recovery
3. Copy the CWM Recovery into your fastboot adb folder.
To flash CWM Recovery
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-cwm-CM10-A3.img
fastboot reboot
4. Enter Recovery. Before you begin, wipe everything (except external_sd) in the CWM Recovery, after wiped, you can install the 3 zip files one by one. After finish, just reboot system.
Full procedure also stated in the link I provided, please scroll down.
Hope that helps you.
So did above solution help? I had a similar issue, and I resolved it by just booting the recovery image from fastboot, i.e.
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
Once you get into recovery you can flash an image which will in most cases flash a recovery image along with it. If not, you can try to flash the recovery image again once you've done a full wipe from the booted recovery.

[Q] Upgrade to EOS-umts_everest-20130705-172 failed

Upgrade fromEOS-umts_everest-20130705-170 to EOS-umts_everest-20130705-172 failed and my xoom MZ601 is now stuck at red Motorolla logo. I have tried clearing the cache as well with no luck and have even tried to install 170 again but its still at that red logo, can somebody suggest something.
Had the same issue - ended up installing nightly - EOS-umts_everest-20130504-161.zip (just happened to be on my sdcard) - this worked.
It should work if you can boot back into recovery - Power + press sound down on splash until recovery option is shown.
I had also erased a load of partitions and reflashed boot.img and recovery.img - you may not need to do this if you can erase partitions from within recovery.
You get into fastboot by the same process above - Power + press sound down on splash until fastboot option is shown
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase splash (may not work)
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Can you enter to recovery?
If yes, just full wipe and flash a new rom.

Say if it had worked
You also didn't reflash your recovery. So it's no wonder it doesn't boot into recovery.

TWRP - enter your password ___SOLVED

OK
i tried to put the 2.6 TWRP on i think it was for the incorrect bootloader (10.6.1.8) so its asking for a password and can't mount anything. bootloader freezes whenever i do anything through fastboot .Adb can see the device in twrp .
PLS help !!!
Any one ...any help
What i did to fix this :
use windows 7 not 8.1 install drivers
I used "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" --- google it
and using part of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44244313&postcount=12
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase misc
fastboot erase cache
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system c:\adb\blob --------- gives me an error uploading the blob !!!!!
fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot ----did not respond --- have to use hardware buttons
When i restart i didn't have recovery at this point just boot in to fastboot menu (i thought i killed my asus totally ))
what i did after :
I FLASH BOOTLOADER ON THE LINK
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23060877490002899 (unzipp it and there is blob<--- i copy it in the abd/fastboot folder)
fastboot flash boot blob
reboot and go in to recovery to confirm that is Hairybean TWRP 2.5 (no enter your password any more ihaaa)
i download twrp_tf201t_kang_2.8.5.1_signed.zip (unzipp it and there is boot.blob<--- i copy it in the abd/fastboot folder) from ... https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934539154
and
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery boot.blob
( I found that.... fastboot flash recovery xxxxxxxx ........... works ONLY if you do ..... fastboot erase recovery ......... first !!!!! i tryed flashing even my original twrp 2.4.4 and its asked me for the password again ..i try so many recovery version.....JB or ICS ...TWRP and CWM you name it ..just this and Hairybean TWRP 2.5 didn't asked for a password )
After ... fastboot flash recovery boot.blob ..... fastboot reboot .....worked ---- restart in to recovery ---- and i did not have that annoying "enter your password" msg any more !!!

Go to twrp/wipe/format data then type yes
It takes about 70 minutes to format
Make sure that your battery is full
Do Not interrupt format(if you do, it will brick)
After it's done go to Wipe//Advanced Wipe//Select Data
Tap “Repair or Change File System”//”Change File System//F2FS
Swipe to Change
Wipe dalvik cache, system, cache, data, internal storage
reboot in to twrp
At that point MY pc can see my tf201 internal storage in TWRP no problem so i just copy zips in there ....... didn't use sd card
Flash KatKiss-5.1.1_TF201_030.zip

experts kindly post here the solution
If TWRP is asking you for a password then you have installed the wrong TWRP for the bootloader you are on.
The easiest way for you to get out of it is to completely reset your machine.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44244313&postcount=12
Just follow the instructions carefully here but get the tf201 firmware instead of the tf300 firmware.
i insert pin to reset the tablet with holding the volume down but nothing happen just restart the tablet

hope this will help you !!!
only show this
That is simple .... from the screenshot i can see that you run adb xxxxxxx thats mean that you are in to recovery mode on your tablet (you start twrp) fastboot won't work -----
U have to be in fastboot .......
(fastbootmode is that screen when you see the RCK/ANDROID/WIPE DATA when rsk is pulsing that is it .......and DO NOT GO IN TO TWRP stay there and run fastboot comands)
for example is you run "fastboot devices" and see your device you are good to go . and adb devices won't work ---but if "adb devices " give you number any fastboot comand wont work !!!!!
SO when you see RCK/ANDROID/WIPE DATA do not touch anything else
run fastboot devices and you will see yout tf201
format everything and then flash
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase misc
fastboot erase cache
i try ur steps
i write adb reboot bootloader then tablet reboots and show 3 options RCK/ANDROID/WIPE DATA
then i didnt touch any of 3 options just write fastboot devices but it show nothing
chk picture
