[Q] Cannot Root Please Help - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I am having some issues and I have tried searching and have tried a few things but I am unable to get my motorola atrix to root.
I tried Super One Click it says killing adb server then starting then it ends up not responding.
I tried Motofail and it just hangs on waiting for device.
I also tried fastboot and had a similar experience.
I have debugging and non market apps ticked on the phone and the drivers installed from Motorola.
Does the phones need to be off or in recovery?
Please help.
Thanks.

Hi thanks for the reply but that top "one click method" has a broken link.
I think nothing is working because I had multiple ADB.EXE on my computer I deleted them all but the on in the superoneclick folder but still not luck.
This is frustrating I didn't have any problems before and it seems that all the threads about rooting the atrix are very old and all the links are broken.
Any other ideas?
Cheers.

Did you try the second method? The preinstall method? That's why I gave the link to that thread. You already mentioned that super one click doesn't work

the link for the adb fastboot is down
I am using my own fastboot. It just hangs on waiting for device. I do not have adb.exe in the folder like in the link you sent.
Should I be able to see my ADB device in my device manager because it says CASUAL's usb devices.

Try to uninstall (not just delete) all android and motorola related software, reboot the computer and use ccleaner to clean the crap left behind by those, also check the registry to make sure they didn't left anything there. Once done, try those steps, and redownload ecerything you need, in case downloads were corrupted. Also, for fastboot I think it's better to use moto-fastboot than regular one

What is casuals usb device? its definitely the phone I have no idea how that driver got on there. will uninstall from the device manager. I just need to see Motorola ADB device installed! Grrr
Thanks.

I feel like a total idiot!
All I did was un install the casual's usb device driver from the device manager, I ticked the box that says to delete the driver. Then I unplugged the phone and plugged it back in. BAM picked up the adb driver and installed now it seems that super one click is working but I will let you know when it is done. IT WORKS!
I was very overwhelmed and going around in circles, at last I got my head together!
Now I need to get a custom recovery on it and I can finally get a decent custom rom.
I know everyone hates this questions but what is a good rrom? I am looking for total stability I want the HDMI out to work and good battery life I dont care about any fancy features. Just rock solid stability.
I hope you guys can continue to give the great support you have been!

Glad to hear you got it working. A good rom to start with is mrom. Unbelievable stable and battery friendly.

I am so relieved I had a atrix years ago and missed it ever since, I used to have fund changing roms all the time and I really wanted to get that phone back so I bought one with a broken digitizer and after breaking one new digitizer I managed to fit it! Now I have finally got a custom rom on there and everything is much better I am so happy.
I think this is still one of the best phones out there.
Thanks everyone for your help I feel like its xmas morning. Well actually much better because I got something useful and had to put work into it to get it!
Happy new year!!!

Play Store and all the other google apps are not available in the official CM roms by default. you have the flash a second package (GAPPS Package) to have these apps. Go to http://goo.im/gapps and download the right gapps package for your room. in this case the CM 7.1-2.x 2.3.5-7 package

Have MROM and installed GAPPS its epic thats great thank you both so much

Sorry one more thing guys. One of the original issues that made me want to root and install a custom rom was that once I unlocked my phone to all carriers (which I paid for officially) my RAM was reduced to 375mb, now it has improved and is at 490mb available out of 815mb total.
(says this in the "about phone" section).
Do you guys know how to get the full 1GB of RAM? I would like to be able to run some pretty intensive apps on here.
Thanks.

Hey dude thanks for the link but I tried to install it on my phone with recovery and it hasn't changed anything still: 461mb/815mb ram...
hmmm...
I read some ROMS have the ram fix built in I guess not MROM?
And I read its a Kernal issue maybe I can install a different Kernal?
Thanks.

815mb is the full ram. You never get the full 1gb even on stock. I could be wrong but I believe 815mb is the most we can get. On cm 10.1 I get in the early 700mb

That sounds about right phone reserves the rest for core drives and operating system. what you see taken up from the 8** is the apps installed that are running. If you install the full batch of gapps can lose 400mb of ram. In most cases this isnt a problem unless you runn graphic intense games then you might want to limit what gapps get installed to only what you'll use.

Nope. If you take a closer look at initrd, you will see that the rest is assigned to video.

Guys thanks for all the advice.
I think MROM is ok, I personally do not like the way it looks, the blue everywhere and the symbols are pretty lame.
It is very stable though!
Any other advice?
I guess go back to neutrino rom like the good ol days.

Rom recommendations?

i'm a noob to rooting..but did a root last night..and put kaosyo and i really didnt like the look of it...most of it was in chinese..and i wasnt allowed to connect to anything..i later ....through the help of someone i had to download something else to connect to google and other things..
i like the look of the eris..dont mind rooting..but especially want something that runs faster and smoother..anyone recommend anything like this?..i want to overclock it...but being a noob to this..i get confused in the root rom overclock flash conversation..i've been reading a lot of boards and a lot of google searches...till my head starts to spin...
thank you (and sorry if i go against board rules etc)
I suggest EvilEris. It's 2.1 and sense based, so it's not too much different from what you're used to.
as for overclocking, buy SetCPU from the app market(I suggest buying instead of other means because these guys did good work and deserve compensation for it). The only things you really need to know is to make two specific profiles: One for charging/full that goes to about 710MHz(there's a slide bar in it to make this easier) and one that turns on when the screen is off(this can be picked from a drop down box in the profile maker) that has a max speed of like 245MHZ. This will help optimize your battery life. It's a fairly easy app to use also, so you'll get the hang of it pretty quickly.
thank you!..i was looking at evil eris..dont like the red..but its one that a lot of people spoke highly of...
i read about that app...will have to buy it..thanks for the help!
now if i can just figure out how to root again..lol...not sure if all that i did yesterday i will have to do the same...but they usually have installing instructions
For rooting your Eris, look at this thread. Works perfectly.
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=725096
If you don't like the red from evil eris then I suggest senseable 3.1. Also sense based and very well spoken of also. Currently what I use and is my favorite.
As stated before setcpu is good for overclocking. You can download for free from these forums (search for it). And as always if you like it, its always nice to donate by buying the app from the market

That's just the wallpaper he uses. It starts with the default one. The only major colour changes is that he uses blue instead of green on the battery.

If you already rooted, you don't need to do it again. When changing ROMs, all you need to do is wipe factory reset, and cache, and nand backup, and then flash your new ROM (zip file).
Look up adb commands for help.

Yeah I agree with the camera thing. Camera magic isn't nearly as good as the stock camera app.
Plus for some reason froyo roms drain my battery like is going out of style. I'm talking I had a full charge, had data wifi bluetooth etc. off. No setcpu either. I had also calibrated the battery. Twenty minutes later after not even turning the screen on it was down almost 10%. And its only on froyo roms. I don't get it.

Evil Eris 3.0 was my long term every day ROM and I would recomend it, but I would also recomend CM6 in my sig.

It's probably because Froyo roms are OC'ed to 710 already. You need setcpu and create profiles to minimize battery drain.

I had profiles set. Didn't help any. I put the same profiles on senseable (oc'd to 710) and battery life is much better. I was doing some wireless tethering today for over an hour and had less drain than doing nothing with froyo.

Not really the best solution but install the webtop hack lol. I have the webtop hack installed and I haven't gotten a single notice after being accepted into the beta program. Also if I go to software update in the system settings I get an error so it seems webtop hack blocks this crap.

The webtop is a seperate addon hack that Ken added into the gingerblur script as an addon for Beta 7.7 (which is what I'm on). To me it's worth having this hack anyways as it saves you the cost of the laptop dock or the multimedia dock and it has prevented me from even being able to be told that there is an OTA for my device.

Android won't install at all

So I have 2 touchpads and have installed android on 3. One of them however, cwm won't even install anything. Its really weird. I ended up having to uninstall everything android and stick with webos. Any ideas on what to do? Or do I have a hardware issue and just stuck with webos. Not that webos is bad and I mainly use the tablet as an internet device to pull up diagrams and such for working on my cars. But it would be nice to have Android on it. Anyone else run across this issue?
I removed Android from the device.and redid the install via acmeinstaller, and considering I have done it on two other devices with no issues makes me.wonder what happened on this last one. Android was rebooting a lot so I tried a wipe and reinstall the rom but cwm would reboot itself seconds after hitting the rom folder to execute the rom installation.

Agreed. I only mention this to put it back to stock and thereby eliminating any variables. I find his predicament rather odd so I was just saying he should do that and start from scratch. Then the community might be able to help him a little better.
i know not a lot to go on, hard to throw in something useful.
I see. Well, I installed all the preware and other stuff after the android failure. I figured if I'm stuck with webos I better get it working better. Maybe ill just do a factory reset and try again.

installed leaked stock ICS. love it!.. now how to root it?

I did flash it and it is smooth as butter. I miss root though and the battery drainage is kinda funky (probably do to the bloat apps). have been running it since last night with no other bugs. it is att and Samsung bloated up beyond belief though.

Yeah, it's definitely a safer option.
Just flashed using the Heimdall files and it's fast as f*ck.
Got rid of a good amount of the bloat too.
Will need sometime to gather some thoughts about it.
I like how it uses the stock ics keyboard. It has no home button lag either.

I was rooted prior and flashed ShiShirRom ICS that was leaked using Aroma installer - everything appears to be intact - there are a few minor bugs that I was expecting but they do not cause any usage issues.
Root is still in place on my phone and all apps are working - I found that disabling the Accuweather and a few other services I do not use have made a HUGE difference in my battery life.
Unplugged it at 6am this morning with just minor use today and as of 3:40pm I am still at 94% charge - ( minor use is - installed a few updates from Google Play, roughly 6 text messages, Exchange email and Gmail and a few minutes showing my coworkers ICS and its new task manager )
Hey does this update wipe data?
And I assume you don't need to be rooted to do it?

OneClick ODIN doesn't require root but it maybe pre-configured to wipe out data.
I installed with the one click exe so will probably wait untilled a cwm kernal is available. I'm slightly tired of flashing this week (6). So will wait a couple of days to see if entropy can save the day again.

What's a kernal?
Lol should have installed swift key before posting. Auto correct on thumb keyboard is almost as bad as iPhone. Kernel is what I meant. It's the core Linux system files for are android phones.

no root for one click...
I flashed one click and it did wipe everything. I don't have root anymore :-( However, within 25 min it had download all my apps back from the market. Also when i went into the market it listed EVERY app i had ever installed (2 phones, 2 tablets), EVER and i do mean Ever. I'm guessing google has a master list somewhere.

The new google play store update lists every app you have ever installed, just like the online store.

I just checked "My Apps" on my phone and I don't see the all the apps that I have downloaded before.
Maybe I am not checking the right thing

A kernal is a little seed inside the phone that decides whether or not you can have root. By swapping it out with a CWM capable one, you automatically are allowed to have root. The name is a bastardization of the word "kernel" because originally there were only hardware kernals but after Igor Palitov revolutionized computing by creating a software version they wanted to differentiate the names. Thus, "kernel" went to the more important and newer thing and the old one got stuck with the informal name now turned official.
You must of not received the google play update Didn't get it on my s2 yet but I did get.it on my EVO view

Removed..Mods Please Close

II'm quite interested but I jacked up something along the way because I completely wiped my entire phone, it won't go past the HTC screen. Been messing with it for 4 hours, I'd love to get this on my phone but I'm at a loss. I'm trying to flash the release keys you posting in RUU and radio images and all that but I think I screwed my phone.
If you can get into recovery then you can sideload the rom. Ive done this with included recovery 2.6.3.3,I never posted the radio,just a twrp backup,but you have to get a rom on the phone to copy the backup into the twrp,backups folder.
Copy the rom to where your adb and fastboot are located connect phone via twrp run this command
adb push nameofrom.zip /sdcard/. exactly as shown here change nameofrom.zip to the name of the rom your trying to flash...this will put a rom on your internal storage and it then can be flashed via twrp
The kid is back in the game!! I look forward to testing this out! Thanks for your help!

Shrugs...oh well...
Is there any way you could make the Messages app with integrated VVM available to people running other roms? I bet there would be a lot of interest in that...
More than likely no, was about 95mb of changes to get everything working as it should be with no glitches or bugs...Ask the dev of the ROM your using to try to implement it...Best I can say for now...Sorry

Just the kind of ROM I was looking for. I take it that there's some serious integration with particular AT&T parts of the ROM to make VVM work. I attempted to change the sku id to the international variant (to get rid of the browser bar from settings, get the intl signal icons, and have the ability to toggle between LTE/HSPA+), but messages kept crashing.
Anyways, thanks for the hard work. Runs smooth, and works as advertised
Took me about a week to get it worked out,was just about to pull the rom and have thread closed due to lack of user interest...lol..Glad your enjoying it...

Most of the messaging apps are the same. With all the required files, you only need to change your CID to CWS__001 to get it to integrate into the messages.apk. Even on sprint, Developer, etc, if you change the CID, you will see a black box in the messaging app where the VVM usually resides. I had it working on Viper for a while, but an update messed it up & since I use G Voice, I really haven't had the need. I think it may heve been fixed in Viper though, since I seem to recall one of the recent updates mentioning it now working.
