[Q] Bootloader unlock for Motorola Photon 4G?? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm stuck on 2.3.5 after an OTA update.
I did try to flash some other ROMs, and bricked my phone once. Somehow I got it back working.
But I'm still wishing if there's any way to flash custom ROMs on this device.
So, I came across this thead : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1200937
Here, they've given a 2nd init. I'd love to test that on 2.3.5, but the download link is broken.
Can somebody in xda help me??
Thanks!!!

[Q] X10a Boot loop problem

First off please let me state that I am aware that I am not any sort of expert when it comes to this sort of stuff. I might use incorrect terms and say things in a way that displays my ignorance to these extremely technical topics. I am have some good common sense and problem solving skills though so if someone were to offer me some help I can probably 'figure it out' by thinking critically.
I have a X10A with AT&T and was too impatient to wait for SE to come out with the 2.1 update here. When the Nordic update came out I was one of the people that rooted and de-branded my phone so that I could get 2.1 on it. Everything went fine and nothing else seems to be wrong with the phone except the boot loop problem. I can not seem to find a definitive answer as to how to fix this on any forums or anywhere else on the internet. I updated it with SEUS and it did not fix the problem.
Since having done this I have read that all the user data must be wiped before rooting/upgrading otherwise one can get stuck in this boot loop (http://www.xda-developers.com/androi...or-xperia-x10/). I don't know if that is what happened to me or not???? Any help someone could offer would be very much appreciated. Thank you.
So you flashed to nordic when it came out but you just now get a boot loop?
Not sure what happened but I'd say try flashing it. Since you are in a boot loop & can't power on & turn it off to get into flash mode, try THIS
I suggest 2.1.A.0.435 X10a 2.1 Global Generic, there's a nice guide HERE on how to install & optimize it. From there you can install a custom rom if you want or just wait for the 2.3 update from SE or see what our devs come up with in the meantime...
At&t will never give us an update... one of my many complaints with them... I am dropping home & cell services ASAP...
Yes I flashed to Nordic when it came out. I have been in a boot loop ever since. I am just now posting this because I have not had time to deal with it. I had insurance on the phone and just got another one instead of fixing it. I will try your suggestion and let you know how it works out. Thanks for the help!

Do you flashed the correct baseband to your ROM?
Maybe you have to install correct baseband with flashtool.

[Q] How to Unlock UK Orange Atrix Bootloader?

Hi there guys/girls,
Ok so I've decided i've had enough of froyo and this stupid locked bootloader, I was holding off as I have seen there being many cases of hard bricked phones and being someone with no insurance can't afford to brick my phone.
On that note is there anyone that can provide me with a guide to unlock my boot loader and get gingerbread specific to my phone ( please use noob terms as i'm not too familiar with moto modding )
my phone details:
System version - Version.4.4.20.MB860.Orange.en.GB
Firmware - 2.2.2
Baseband - N_01.95.00R
Build Number - OLYEM_U4_4.2.0
Any help is really really appreciated.
If any more details are required let me know and thanks in advance.
Ron
Somebody.... Anybody??
Have a read here

but from how i understand it once you have done it you can do any updates (must have read that wrong).
Many thanks for the help.
I have now unlocked my bootloader and am still on froyo 2.2.2 but am suffering from the ram problem ( only showing around 300mb ram )
Can anyone provide me with a simple guide to fix this?
Also does this now mean no more OTA updates?
Thanks in advance
No one feel like helping me out?
Well to add an incentive... If someone can provide me with a simple guide I will buy them a drink ( via paypal )
Who's thirsty?

I had the same RAM issue. There is a ROM out there with the RAM fix but you can get this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16035823#post16035823 ROM and follow the instructions on how to install it. CAUTION: You MUST verify and install the kernel version specific to your phone from this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1169409 link.
NOTE: I am not responsible for your actions and you should always make backups of your phone before trying anything. Try downloading tenfar's CMW4 to make backup of your ROM and get Titanium bakcup pro to save the configurations on your phone.
Good luck.

Heres the quick guide I posted, If you still want a full guide written out from scratch then Ill do that soon. Read through my thread here and you shouldn't brick your atrix. - I shouldn't and won't be held responsible for anything that you do to your own device happy unlocking.
Hey thanks for all the support. There are loads of noob Orange Atrix users waiting for Gingerbread OTA. I am one of them. Is there a guide tailor made for Orange UK users that I can follow? Also, if I use this, and the oTA comes through, can we flash back to that, or will it brick? And once bricked, what can we do? Ive got no insurance and brick will NOT be good, when I try to backup up from the (Boot + Volume Up = Android Recovery) all I get is the Android Logo staring at me with an exclamation mark. I understand you probably have a lot on your plate milky kid, but we are all FED UP waiting for Motocraps OTA. Thanks for any support you can offer.

[Q] Sbf file link needed!

Hello all,
I think my xt910 got bricked. So I guess I should use the rsd method to return it back to normal.
My phone was running on the 4.0.4 stock rom.
Every single sbf link I find is dead. Can someone provide me a working mirror. Im from Turkey if that matters for the sbf file. Also I read that my CID will be gone. What does that mean?
I seem to have found a link. Im not even sure if its a right link and there are tons of different options. Please guide me about which one to download.

Hi..I own a nokia 7.1 but it got stuck.. I'm thinking of wanting to flash the stock rom again.. Is there any solution/guide on how to flash the stock rom even without unlocking the bootloader? Really hoping someone can help me on this.. Thanks in advance..
I'd like to know this as well, I had an issue where I had to send the phone back for repairs, where it just needed to be reflashed. If I could 've done this myself, it would have saved me from 2 weeks of waiting.
