how to tips...? - Ubuntu Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I really wanna get Ubuntu on my device... We have a preview out so I thought I could download the pre-install and the new release flash it via TWRP 2.6... It was a no go..no boot stays at the black screen for about 30 min... Then couldn't use my restore file had to RSD the stock... So how would one cook up a good pre-install zip or go about getting it up and running... I would be working with a xt907 Motorola RAZR M unlocked bootloader on a windows 7 64x or on Ubuntu 13.10... I thank you kindly for your time...

Find your way to a windows XP and it should work. Can you not use Odin?

Maybe a newer/older version of ODIN. Search to see if you can find one that is known to be compatible with Win7
Have you cheked your USB DEBUG setting?

[Q] Bootloader ereased????? CHECK THIS OUT!!

Rooted and unlocked moto electrify.
i have been flashing roms on several phones for many years. i always rely on the devs here at xda to help me through and you guys never fail!!!
my electrify is unlocked and rooted, been running th3bills cm10 for several weeks, also tried miui aokp and others. all great roms and great work!!
i was changing my keyboard on my phone and ran into trebuchet stopped working and couldnt get it to do anything. i tried reflashing the rom without wiping hoping it would fix it but it did. i did a reset and wipe and reload of the rom and it still stopped working. i then decided to, while in recovery, partition the sd card mount just cause i like to learn and i do that by trying thing, anyway, when i did it hung up for like 5 mins. thought it was kinda long so i pulled the battery. At this point im not sure of all the steps i took to get cm10 on my phone but it took a lot. after i put the battery back in and started the phone the screen comes on, says unlocked up in the corner but no red dual core symbol, instead it has this on the screen.......................................

electrify rooted unlocked and running th3bills cm10
Its not erased. Your boot logo is erased and possibly your PDS partition is lost too. Just means you can't activate PR update your prl normally anymore.

To fix, restore your PDS through CWM, and also flash a boot logo through fastboot or cwm with a flashable zip.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Looking into that now. In the meantime....is it going to have bad affects on my ROM. Also do you know where to get files needed to fix?
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
No. I actually prefer it that way. Its just an issue whenever you sbf back to stock and your phone attempts to activate itself.
As far as files and such, search via Google or xda for PDS fix, it'll show either a thread for the atrix or photon.
And then search for boot logos to flash.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
So just to clarify.... when I sbf back to stock I will have to do what to activate?
Will I have to dial *228 or what will I run into for issues?
I have already done a lot of Google searches and found the file you spoke of last night for the atrix (does it matter?) and instruction on how to push it to my phone.
Just trying to be ahead of the game and have my info before moving forward. Phone is running great with no issues so far.
Basically picking your brain for knowledge and help before I soft brick or some sh** and have to lock my bootloader to get my phone back.
So....... thank you very much for your help and insight into this. Had never seen it before.

Follow that link and since your bootloader is unlocked, use fast boot to flash. download the PDS gingerbread zip and unzip.
Doing that will allow you to ota update in case you revert to stock.
For flashing a boot logo, follow this link and read a few posts into it to find a cwm-flashable zip to restore your boot logo: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1187337
***Don't sbf with the uscc sbf because it will lock your bootloader. ***

I believe this is the question and then i'll leave you alone for a day or so lol
Do i have to be on a stock rom to do this or can i do it on th3bill's cm10 or other custom roms?
To you hoslayer13.... you have been a wealth of knowledge! I tip my hat to you sir!
To answer your question, yes you can be on a custom rom to do this but before you do check your PDS partition first. I am pretty sure there will be only a lost-found folder with nothing in it.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Yes it is just an empty folder. Using file manager that comes with cm10 that comes with root access in the root directory I find a folder "PDS" and it is empty. I'm going to push the fix now and will update my results.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
I flashed the fix and have noticed to Ill affect on the ROM so far. Also flashed boot logo. Working great!
Thanks again hoslayer13!!
Thank you xda! Always there!
