[Q] New to Atrix

I just upgraded from a 4 year old blackberry so using the Atrix is pretty overwhelming. Jailbreaking an iPhone is one thing but I have no idea where to get started with this one.
Is there a definitive guide on how to get started customizing and modifying your phone?
Thanks to all who reply, its really appreciated

Telus Fascinate 4g nice root?

Hi everyone, this its my first post in the XDA forums yey!!! And the question of the day from me is, is there a clean nice way to root the telus fascinate 4g??? I saw the other posts on it and some soft bricking was happening, not to nice. I tried super one click and it hung on the 6 th step. If anyone can help out or direct me in the right direction that would be great!!

Sorry, not at this moment.
There isn't a quick way to root 2.3.4 Gingerbread phones in general, and the T959P is more of a niche model.
I am in the exact same boat as you Greatcdn. I do not want to overclock my phone nothing like that I just want to be able to remove some files I cannot remove without having root on my phone.
Hey thanks for the reply! Hmm yeah this kinds sucks, I like
GB but it would be great rooted!!! Maybe a clean method will come or soon enough.

Is there anyway to downgrade the firmware???
I just got the 4G as a gift and I'd like to try to root it.
I'm guessing the rooting methods are different from the original fascinate?
Thanks,
newbie

CWM from Samsung galaxy exhibit 4g to lg p769?

Im kinda new at rooting, and i was wondering if i could put the cwm from my galaxy exhibit 4g on my lg p769 or the super user app?

I don't know how you rooted your other phones but because this one is very new phone the click and root does not work yet. There is a very detailed rooting procedure in the general section that will help you root.

yedsking same
No you cant. The exhibits cwm is just a modified version of another phones and that cwm is specific to those two phones.
I still have my exhibit for backup in case this things decides to die, Honestly I miss that phone just due to how easy doing anything to it was and that massive amounts of roms it had.

Do the same thing you did before to obtain root, worked for me on LG 4X.
Try to fix promission again.

Root Loss After V20H Update
It's not good for u and I am sorry for u, but on the other side of that coin I'm glad I found this b4 I updated, because I would've been in the EXACT same spot. Good luck on getting out of ur mess!
Also, I was curious if u could use something like Voodoo to keep/restore root after such an update?
Same thing here! The method won't work with the v20h. Any workarounds?
