This morning when i woke up i had PA 4.1 on my fassy. Being the masochist that i am, i decided to try to update to 4.2 without reading all the documentation. After bricking my phone i found out that my Class4 SD card isnt recognized by the recovery.
Does anyone know of a place where i can find a stable 4.1 JB ROM? I love PA very much, but right now i am just trying to get my phone back into a working state until i can find a store that sells a class 6 micro sd. Any ROM version would be ok as long as it works. I have thought of using this opportunity to make my own build, but that endeavor caused too much confusion for me in the past so i gave it up.
Im a bit shocked to find that there isnt a sticky with all the past stable android versions listed. Or maybe i just couldnt find it, which would be understandable since my best friend (android) just died. Im freaking out.
I would suggest AOKP found here or find someone who has one of the last CM10 nightlies before they switched to CM10.1

Hello guys,
first of all a little Introduction:
I'm using a i9300 myself, running cm9 stable more than happy. I do have some base knowledge of the magic you guys are doing here, but not into it enough, I fear.
Im going to visit a close friend of mine soon, who owns a X10 and is more than unsatisfied with the stock rom. Naturally, what he needs is one stable CFW, with the first things coming to my mind being Cyanogen and AOKP. This could even be a chance to get him hopping on the ICS-Train. Since I'm only gonna stay for 2 days, I want to fly there prepared as good as possible.
tl;dr: Don't have a X10, going to have a stock one in my hands for 2 days soon, need to find a stable CFW for it.
I've stumbled across these forums for quite some time now - and have come to some conclusions I'm not quite sure about:
First, I'll have to root the phone, likely using the newest FlashTool. Do I have to take different steps depending on if he's on 2.3.4 or 2.3.5?
Is the next step installing ClockWorkMod?
I can then safely try installing any ROM after booting into recovery, likely Cyanogenmod 7 - or is any stable ICS ROM for the X10 out there?
I'm really appreciating your help, tips, links and guides - even a keyword might help me out. Just trying to find something as fast AND stable as possible, as I can't fix it as soon as I leave my friends house.
Willing to buy you a Beer or two if you push me in the right direction or even provide a link to a bullet-proof ROM or guide.
Have a nice evening,
paddo
Check out the video in this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1196808
Hope it helps
It sure does, thank you!
Next I'll only need to find a stable ROM, not caring about whether the bootloader has got to be unlocked or not, right?
Is there ANY stable cm9 out there, or at least a 7.2?
The rom that's used in that video is one of the best I've used..go for it..
Hello every one this is my first post but ive been on this forum for awhile im still sort of a noob but im figuring it out after soft bricking my EVO LTE ive sort of got the basics down. I started the venture trying to install the beanstalk rom finally got it working but could not get the sd card to mount for anything so I tried other roms and after noticing a trend I realized that every rom that was cm10.2 and android 4.3 would not mount the sd card so far that is my only problem but its a pretty big one for me. Anyway for awhile I was running the latest 4.2 version of Dirty Unicorn and it was working perfectly until I decided to try the 4.3 version of the rom again, after that fail because of the same problem with the sd card I tried to reflash to the DU 4.2 then the sd card wouldn't mount to that rom either so now im running a basic 10.1 cm rom...I would really LOVE to run 4.3 roms but cant get around the sd card problem is there anyone that can help. Ive heard that being S-OFF would do the trick but my phone is currently 3.17 and there is nothing supporting that right now so I feel like im stuck if some one could help I would greatly appreciate it
Have a good one and thanks for looking
If you want to S-OFF, and are currently S-ON with 3.17.651.4 software/firmware, please join the #moonshiners IRC channel ASAP. beaups has a test build he needs help to get working for the latest OTA. It would be helpful for everyone if someone could assist.
Hello everyone,
I wanted to get rid of my stock rom and I didn't have much time to read much about it so I just used the CM installer which got me to 4.4.2 (I wanted CM10.2 and I thought I would have a chance to choose the desired version but I realised it just goes to the most recent one). I am not happy with the battery though and I would like to change rom and probably go to CM 10.2. The thing is I am pretty new to android and I havent even rooted a phone before. So I was wondering which are the steps from here to change a rom so I can read the relevant guides this time.
Thanks!

Years ago a friend installed CM7 on my Atrix and now it's pretty unstable. I would like to reinstall the ROM fresh. The question is, which ROM should I install. (He didn't backup before installing CM7)
I'm thinking it would be nice to go back to an official ROM but, there is CM10.1. I'm leary of going back to CM because the 10.1 ROM is not official and it doesn't seem there will be much improvements for CM on an Atrix 4G.
I'm leery of going to an official ROM because I see all the banter of bricking it with Gingerbread.
Suggestions?

The real question is what version of android do you want to run? CM7/7.2 is the only official CM ROM. CM10.1 is not official b/c of the kernel issues, which is still being worked. Does it really matter if a ROM is official or not? No. "Doesn't seem there will be much improvements for CM on an Atrix 4G."? Really? I'm not even going to post the link, I'm just going to say go google android version history and see what CM9, 10, and 10.1 have that CM7 does not have, and then restate that noob statement. Seriously, you have no idea what you are talking about.
Multiple users, including myself, have unlocked, rooted, restored to stock, many times over the past 3 yrs. In addition, there are guides readily available to help you through the process of preparing your device for custom ROMs. So the concern of bricking is a non issue unless you don't know what you're doing. Banter of bricking it only exists if you flash the incorrect sbf. Its not that hard. Sit down, read guides, ask questions as needed.
Let me be the first to admit that I am a noob and have no idea what I'm doing because this is my first foray into the world of smart phones (we all have to learn somewhere).
I went ahead and put CM10.1 on there and after adding the fixed gapp package it seems to be working fine.
Does anyone have a working link to a gingerbread ROM that works for an AT&T Atrix 4G? The links on this tread are dead: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1163342
Hello everyone, I just joined after installing 6.0 on my Asus tf201. I have flashed ROMs from hairybean up to 6.0 and back as well as bricked this poor tablet several times. I have also replaced android with various versions of Linux using other sites so I'm no stranger to playing with nvflash and fastboot. I can also do some how-tos if anyone wants, anyways I made this thread cause I have a weird issue, I downloaded Super SU twice and both times TWRP 2.8.1.5 (I might have the numbers wrong) just rebooted like it was a soft crash or something. I would post in the thread I got the ROM from but I don't have enough posts yet, would an older version work without issue or do I have to just deal with no root ATM?
The version of Super SU that I'm trying is 2.52 BETA as the post specified that one but doesn't say if an older will work. I look forward to having a great time here, and I welcome any and all feedback.
Thank you for your time.

Tiger,
I'd just update the recovery to the latest Area 51 version. It's got a few new features that are pretty slick. From there, grab one of the SU's from one of Taconikki's Rom's. They worked for me every time.

I can use a howto which is current if anyone has one for flashing from stock.

If you still need a how-to Ill get started on it, if you do I just need to know if you have done any backups or anything in case you brick the tablet. Mine is currently running android 7.1, I havent checked to see if 8 is available yet (presuming someone ports it of course) and Ill even cover how to go back to stock if you need that info as well.
Thanks! I finally did upgrade it to 7.x and am waiting to see if someone gets an oreo build

I keep checking every now and then, but my tf201 keeps randomly rebooting, so it hasnt seen much use as of late. I am currently working on porting ubports (formerly ubuntu touch) to my galaxy note 4 though. I might try and get it on my tf201 eventually cause when I tried it on there it was butter smooth and tank reliable. I switched it back to android cause there were no apps at the time and the build has been abandoned since then, so who knows.
