Hi everybody.
I have been folowing the development of cm9 by Jokersax for quite some time now. Right now I am using the CM7 RC but I would like to get back to cm9 soon. Since the last update he has been adding a system.img file to flash using fastboot.
My question now is:
Do I only have to flash the system.img and that's it?
fastboot wipe everything and then flash the system.img?
What about a boot.img?
Do I have to flash that too?
I know I could use cwm instead but I would like to understand the fastboot method also...

Ok. If I only flash the system.img, I will get the cm9 rom running? I don't see anything about boot.img ...

This is the Atrix 4G forum................you are in the wrong place!
I'd hate to revive a dead thread here but.. anyone who understands fastboot willing to give me a hand with something?
My Atrix is stuck in boot loop because my battery died during a flash in TWRP. I tried going back into TWRP to recover back to my nandroid backup but TWRP just stays at the splash screen.. I've tried to ash a rom via fastboot update and no dice so far.. any assistance is very much appreciated
EDIT: Found this thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1421522 should probably work so mods feel free to delete this post. If I encounter an issue I'll post there/

You can try entering recovery mode ( before the splash screen appears ) and wipe cache , wipe dalvik and wipe data, then reboot.

What error are you getting when trying to run the RUU? You need to make sure the RUU matches the base of the rom that your phone is currently on. What were you doing when you started to have this problem?

theres nothing available for me to flash i believe everything was erased from the internal memory
Sorry I meant to say fastboot, I reset my SwiftKey keyboard because I got tired of fighting with it and the reset made it worse lol
Just download trwp recovery image and fastboot flash that, then pick a rom package and extract boot image and fastboot flash that, boot into twrp and flash the same ROM zip
Hurray, SwiftKey has arrogantly corrected 10,000 keystrokes, if only I could get it to work as intended

Have you ever used fastboot
Download a full ROM that's compatible with your firmware... Then try flashing that

mount your card from twrp and transfer the necessary files, again the new meanrom should include the workaround that xhausx ported from the evo 3d, it should save you the trouble of having to extract the kernel for fastboot

as far as i know Mikey incorporated a method to trick the hboot into flashing the entire package but if you get stuck during boot you will have to extract the boot image and flash that through fastboot

well you can try any of the other roms available but if you get a successful flash and it does not boot, extract the boot image from that rom, go back into boot loader and fastboot flash the kernel

Eh, can someone please upload the latest 4ext recovery PG86IMG.zip for me? I want to flash a new ROM, but it requires 4ext. The system bootloops so I can't get it the normal way.
I found one around here, but it's for CDMA and my bootloader told me to go eat a rock. So GSM, please.
Cheers!

Can u tell us ur HBoot and S-on or S-off
Try to flash other recovery , install a stock rom then install 4ext.I was in same problem too
http://4ext.net/ddl/shooteru/recovery.zip
please note this is not a PG86IMG file. you have to extract recovery.img and flash via your pc using cmd. put your phone is fastboot and use this command in cmd
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
make sure you have drivers for phone installed

HBoot 1.49.1107, S-Off. I was thinking of going that way, but that seems too much of a hassle for something that could be simply downloaded.

Thanks, I'll try this out right now.
Edit: I ended up flashing with fastboot, then installing an older version of the ROM, then installing recovery from the app and only THEN the ROM version I wanted. Apparently the latest version required the most recent 4ext, I'm dazed and confused but everything is working now.
Haven't used the phone for an year or so, restoring some old SMS messages out of the nandroid backup brought up some memories. Now I'll be using it to test my mobile app. Thanks again!
now that you can boot your rom, download 4ext Recovery Updater and update to latest version of 4ext from there

yes i can go in fastboot mode. but my phone is not rooted.
what shall i do ?
Rooting has nothing to do with flashing. Put it in bootloader mode and flash a recovery. Then try doing a factory reset. If that doesn't work, re-flash the ROM.

It's all in step 5 of the guide you used to root the device on the first place. No need to re-write it here.

No offence, but you need to do more research and know how this stuff works before flashing things.
I can't answer your question because I don't know what you are trying to flash. Ask in the thread where you found it. If it's a custom ROM, TWRP Will work. If stock, stock recovery is best.
I'm signing off for a while. Good luck.

Right, because the device is rooted. The first section of the routing guide tells you the problem (modified system position) and there are threads here to solve it.

well that's why you need to unlock bootloader first before attempting to root your phone. and know what you are doing (flashing). With all that said if you can still boot to Recovery then flash this Full ROM (save this on an SD card) that should stop the bootloop and have a working ROM

If you can't boot to recovery or even bootloader this is your guide

if you can still access bootloader then simply just boot TWRP from it, first download this full rom and save it on your SD card
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982087013219
then go to bootloader if you can still access it and boot TWRP
fastboot boot [whatever your twrp name is].img
you can download modified twrp here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=16464
then once inside TWRP just install the FULL ROM that was downloaded and saved in the SD card/
My phone boots into fastboot ok but there is no recovery wont boot. I try to flash recovery and it says it cant because not unlocked tried unlocking bootloader says its sucesfull but phone wont get bast boot logo.
