[Q] Help required about Stock Rom of Atrix and its Installation.

Hi all
I am in urgent need of help to fix my Atrix 4G.
The Story:
I have an Atrix 4G. It was on 2.2.4 then official update came and I updated it to 2.2.6.
Then I was wondering about installing custom rom. This was my first time to install a custom rom. So I googled and found.
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1398819
Neutrino ROM V2.9 [14/08].
So I rooted and unlocked my fone. My fone was successfully rooted and unlocked and I restarted it and there was Unlocked written on Booting Screen.
In this procedure I had to reset the phone so it was back to 2.2.4.
After that I downloaded the above rom put in in SD Card and Downloaded Recovery APK from market and it asked to restart the phone with power adapter plugged to start so I did the same. And recovery started. Then following the instructions I installed the custom rom and it was installed successfully it was my first time so I didnt took any backups unfortunately. So after installation the phone did'nt actually start. It was stuck on Booting Screen with Moto Logo.
So I again googled and started to find the solution some said restart some said remove battery some said wait I tried all but no result.
Then I tried to install the stock rom.Following this
Code:
http://androidforums.com/atrix-4g-all-things-root/510778-flashing-back-stock.html
When i start to run RSD lite it says Creating Image and then throws an error like Unable to send RAM files.
Now I want to fix my Atrix 4g and there is no backup and no recovery mod.
My fone can go into options like Fastboot and RSD Protocol Mode. I mean I can access options on pressing Power and Volume Up/Down buttons.
Can any one please tell me solution? I will be very very thankful.
In fastboot flash recovery
fastboot devices
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot falsh recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot
Go to recovery mode, try to wipe data, cache and dalvik. If you have Neutrino rom on your internal SDcard you can flash it with recovery.

[Q] Bootloop after CM 11

Hello.
I've had twrp 2.6.3 with cm 10.2.1 stable, and today morning my device asked me for an update to cm11. After the update my device didn't boot, so i started to do research, i found out that i need cwm to get cm11 working, thats why im now on this site.
First i did a backup of all important files/data and then formate the SD Card
so i downloadet cm11 / cwm 6.0.4.6 and the gapps from this site.
installet it in this order:
Fastboot USB
fasboot devices
fastboot flash boot boot.img (from the cm11)
fastboot erase cache
Recovery
install zip from sideload.
adb devices
adb sideload cm11.zip
adb sideload gapps
after this steps i did reboot system.
And i stuck in bootloop right now.
what am I doing wrong?
I have a HOX + International

So did you installed CWR recovery ? if not you need to do that first . Since you say your backups are from TWRP , you better use Philz CWM which has a backup compatibility, else your TWRP backups will not work on CMW ..

Maybe sideloading gapps is the problem? just try sideloading cm11, you can flash gapps later after first boot. Also no need to format complete /data partition (including /media) when you already had Android 4.2 or later installed.

I will try it now with the All-In-One Kit from hasoon.
Now I got another problem.
I Installet the newest HTC Sync Manager, because i got the error with htc mtp device. And now in the device manager my pc thinks its an htc one... and the ohter problem is, in cmd it doesn't recognize adb..
I Really need help here...
I installed over 4 different sync managers. and a few drivers, but my pc still don't recognize my phone..
ADB is working now...
i think i now the problem, i got an old version of hboot. version 1.72.0000 so now im trying to update it.
Nothing is working. is there another way to get it work? can it be, that I installet something earlier and now its the reason that it wont boot?
At&t X+ or international.... You are doing something wrong here

[Q] [NEED HELP] Bootloop After Repartition

I've a rooted ZTE V972M. I tried to increase internal storage following instructions in
"Re-Partition any MTK6589 Phone, Without A PC! (More /Data Storage!)"
When I reboot my phone, it stucks at logo screen.
What I've done trying to fix it:
1. Enter the recovery mode; it's a stock recovery (Android system recovery <3e>); wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition.
Result: still stuck at logo when rebooting.
2. Flash a stock ROM in recovery mode.
Result: Update aborted. In the log file, it says "failed to mount /cache (No such file or directory)" detailed in attached file. The stock rom I used is for ZTE LEO S1, while my phone is DTAC LION HD which is a house brand of my phone carrier. So, there may be a problem of ROM signing.
3. I installed "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" and "ZTE_Android_Driver", and run "adb devices" command.
Result: There is nothing under " List of devices attached", so I assume adb cannot see my phone. In Windows' Device Manager, it shows "Portable Devices" and lists drive I:\ and K:\ under it.
In summary, My phone is rooted. I might have damaged partition /data and /cache which causes the bootloop. I can still enter stock recovery mode. I have a stock ROM, but may not be properly signed.
Please suggest me on what I can do next.
Thanks.

can you return to stock using the mediatek flash tool and your stock firmware?(I'm not knowledgeable with MTK)

mediatek flash tool cannot see the phone either.
May be, if I can install CWM or TWRP, I might be able to update the stock rom with it. I've read elsewhere that If a phone can enter recovery mode, we can use fastboot in download mode. But I don't know how to install CWM or TWRP with fastboot.

[Resolved] install cwm and rom with unlocked bootloader

Hi, I'm trying to install a recovery for my xperia u (st25i) and a custom room (cm-12.1-20150704-UNOFFICIAL-kumquat).
I'm a bit confused... is the kernel included inside the room or do I have to look for one with the cwm included. And how can I flash it using fastboot. I already have the room ready to install but since I don't have any recovery installed (I keep trying volume + or - while powering on and nothing...).
I supose the command is: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Not sure about how to flash the room.
I found this but it seems the link it's down...
I would appreciate a link to the CWM recovery and the commands to flash it and also the custom room.
Thanks!

Thanks for your answer. I was able to flash an old version of the CWM recovery, but I think I just fukd up... By mistake I zeroed the userdata/sdcard partition (using diskpart clean all), since then I cannot mount it in the CWM recovery: it always says "Can't mount /sdcard/", everywhere, trying to partition it, trying to factory reset... any option will give me that error. I already tried giving it format, fat, fat32, extfat... none works.
I tried some fastboot commands like erase userdata and so, and now I can't even mount the /data/ partition that I was able to mount.
But I'll try flashing it using the flashtool as you say.
Edit: Fixed! It seems the recovery from that kernel repaired the partitions and I was able to install the zip from there. Thanks!

[Help] Bootloop on Xiaomir Redmi Note 4X

Hello, I'm kind of new at this (this is my first post) so be gentle
So, the last few days I've been trying to install a new rom on my phone (Redmi Note 4X) and the problems started with the model. I only seem to find Redmi Note 4 roms, and as I've come to find, mine is supposed to be the mido one (correct me if I'm wrong though). I have unlocked the bootloader, I have installed and enabled the fastboot on my phone, so the next step was to install the latest TWRP.
There came more problems; I tried doing this through the app and it just wouln't flash it. So I found a guide on how to root my phone and install a new recovery through adb and I followed it. It didn't work. I couldn't find the right twrp version for my phone. When I finally did realise my phone needed mido, I found the latest from the TWRP website. It wouldn't load through adb again. I found a thread about a fixed mido version, which finally worked for me. But my brother who was helping me, and isn't as much of a noob as I am (he has flashed rom and recoveries many times on his Nexus 5X), decided that I necessarily need the latest twrp if I'm going to flash a new rom, so he flashed the new twrp through the old one, and soft bricked my phone (I think). So I'm searching for a guide to unbrick it. (Which I can't seem to find to work at least).
To conclude;
I have unlocked my bootloader
I have access to the fastboot
I tried to flash a recovery
I failed many times, but I managed it
I flashed the latest twrp and bricked my phone
I don't have access to the recovery
My phone is still on a bootloop
I am not sure about which phone model I have
Help!
Thanks in advance.
1. Just check your phone model on its box. If its Snapdragon version (Mido), then just install it via fastboot. (code: fastboot flash recovery twrp-midoxx.img). If you are success, then try to reboot to recovery (fastboot boot twrpmido-xx.img). After booted, then you just manage to rom.zip you want to install. If you don't have it, then download it before from your PC and push it to your phone. Or just enable Mtp checklis from TWRP n copy that file to your internal phone/sdcard. Wipe all/factory reset except internal storage. Then you dan install rom.zip normally. N reboot. (Note: if you are on MIUI and wanted to always stay on it, just flash the file called lazyflasher.zip. n' wipe cache n art cache only then reboot). Flashing custom recovery on stock MIUI Will manage the device Going to bootloop)
2. If you have mediatek version (nikel), searching the fastboot Rom from miui website and flash it normally via fastboot. (SP Flash tool)
Warning: flash the wrong rom file into wrong phone Will make your device brick. So becarefull n knowing what model/code name you have.

Hello and thanks for the reply. I have the snapdragon version, but all I'm asking is how am I supposed to flash the lazyflasher without accessing the recovery? Through adb?

Firstly, enter fastboot mode on your device. Connecting to pc and flashing the twrp for mido. "fastboot flash recovery twrp-mido.img". Then boot to it using " fastboot boot twrp-mido.img". Then you will enter the recovery (twrp) in a second. Copy the lazyflasher into your phone (enable mtp first in Mount option in twrp) that you downloaded from pc. Just flash the lazyflasher.zip and reboot.
And why you don't want to flash lazyflasher when it very easy to flash it using recovery twrp? adb? You mean android debugging? Actually, you cant flash a .zip file into your system partition except through fastboot mode. However, fastboot mode (in cmd) only recognize a .img file. I just try to tell you the easier method to make your device boot up.

As I said above, I can only access the fastboot, and I get errors in the adb when I try to flash the twrp image.
