[Atrix 4G Android Development] fabianowerner:
Sorry to tell you that both Defy and Bravo have locked bootloaders. I mean, locked by a chip based lock, noone ever cracked it, cos its hardware stuff. And both devices are completely different from Atrix, cos Motorola released it with an option to unlock its bootloader, to give more possibilities on having control over the phone. But Defy and Bravo have a "second init" kind of boot that allows you to install custom roms but only running over official kernels (signed by Motorola only., Remember, LOCKED). But I must say that Defy and Bravo are hard to brick devices, as long as the Atrix is a very delicate device in meaning of upgrading using custom roms/kernels. There are some procedures that can easily brick and kill an Atrix, I did that with the first i had,simply killed it (hard brick) with wrong procedures, my mistake. Lucky i was under warranty and the store just gave me a new device. Defy is almost impossible to brick, and it has a locked bootloader. So its just a point of view thing.

korean atrix

not sure if this was mentioned

but KOREAN ATRIX USERS NEED TO FLASH TELSTRA SBF

(OLYEM_U4_1.4.2_SIGNED_USAOLYEMTELSTRA_P029_A020_M005_HWolympus_1g_1FF.sbf)

BEFORE INT'L UNLOCKER SBF

otherwise the error message "Failed to boot : 3" (something like that)

& if you have MB861 upgrade to gingerbread and use fastboot, worked for me w/o sbfs
[Atrix 4G Android Development] arik100:
hey there

does the sbf file here : IHOP BELL for international users has a replacement? cause it keeps shutting down my phone with any room after some use.

It's highly likely because of this sbf file , because when stock room it doesn't happen at all

Unlock:

Unlocker only SBFs - These small 1mb SBF files will get your phone ready to fasboot oem unlock. They are the files most people should use.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] amedeh123:
so, i have a brazillian atrix with the most recent OTA (2.3.6) installed on it.. its stock and unrooted

if i flash the bell SBF to unlock it, will it brick my device? i heard you can brick it when newer versions are installed and you sbf it. Am i safe to do the procedure to unlock it? am i also safe to flash CWM to it?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ravilov:
That only goes for full and official SBFs. That said, flashing any SBF is always risky and dangerous.

I don't know how safe it is to flash the IHOP to an international device so I won't give any advice here.

After you unlock the BL, you can flash whatever recovery you want.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] amedeh123:
Is there anyway to recover it from a bad flash/brick (could not boot error) that anybody here is aware of?

Edit: also my phone is the MB860, but with brazillian carrier software on it instead of american software
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
Hi,

CG42 is not required to flash the bootloader and can be removed from the IHOP pudding.

How to flash ATT 4.5.141 Stock SBF to International MB860?

Hi everyone!

My question might sound strange especially for a pudding thread but please hear me out.

I've a used/preowned AT&T Atrix 4G with unlocked BL & running 4.5.141 Fruit Cake.

I was under the assumption that the phone is a full fledge AT&T MB860.

However, every attempt I've made to flash the stock AT&T 4.5.141 SBF to the phone has resulted in a sec_exception: febe, 35, 35 error.

I need to restore the stock android recovery to benefit from the data encryption.

Then I got the idea that perhaps the board is not a standard AT&T MB860 board.

I tried the AT&T Pudding SBF and got the same sec_exception error.

However, when I flashed the International Pudding SBF, I did not encounter the error!

So, I managed to prime the board for flashing.

Now, I'm a little hesitant to proceed as RSD Lite says Model: Flash MDM6600 instead of Model: NS Flash Olympus.

Do I proceed to flash the stock AT&T 4.5.141 SBF when RSD Lite says Model: Flash MDM6600 or do I have to reboot the phone into Starting RSD protocol support and flash the 4.5.141 SBF file?

I tried the latter & it failed like before with the sec_exception: febe, 35, 35 error when flashing the stock AT&T 4.5.141 SBF.

Should I be flashing the stock AT&T 4.5.141 SBF or look for a compatible one?

If the latter, where do I start to indentify which ones are compatible with my phone's board?

Can someone confirm with me so I know what to do?

Thanks!

Konker

Update

:

I finally figured out that the sec_exception: febe, 35, 35 error meant that the SBF was not intended for the device. That led me to suspect that the system board is not an original AT&T US board. I gave an Asian stock SBF a try & viola! The phone was successfully restored to factory stock ROM with stock bootloader & the Unlocked words removed from the boot screen. Device encryption is also working without any issues.

The person give me the mail and password for motoblur accounts but nothing change.

Buid number- 4.5.2A-51_OLL-48

with emotion but all was ok, the factory reset work.

I also root the phone with your help.

I can't unlock the bootloader when I want to unlock the boot loader with automatic_unlock_v4.2 .

Deserve to unlock the bootloader? and how? - I read but I don't understand all for my phone version.

Deserve to flash a custom Rom? or I remain on stock Rom?

Escuse me but with all I reads my phone version (and android version) involve some exception.

Thank You very much for your help.

Instructions here don't seem to indicate that. http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Insta...ootloader_with_sbf_flash_.28Linux_.26_OS_X.29 I ordered an atrix on ebay and can't really think of any reason to have root on the device besides being able to remove the stock crap which a custom rom would eliminate anyway.

Hi Guys,

Help needed.

I followed the guide to unlock the Atrix MB860 running on froyo. After flashing the sbf file, it restarted and showed "failed to boot, entering in RSD mode". As it was given in instruction that this would happen and is called soft brick. So I restarted the phone trying to go in fastboot, but its not entering in fastboot, Screen gets on and it gets off immediately and nothing happens. Thought if powered on it shows:

SVF:108:1:2

Failed to boot 3

Starting RSD mode.

Please guide me out of this situation.

Thanks
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwarzlichtkind:
...Seems like you bricked your phone... Why didn't just upgraded via server (there should have been a notification if you were running stock) and fastboot flashed the little file that opens the boot loader? SBF is very unsafe and not meant to be used by end-users.

Search for the method to unbrick your phone in this forum. There is a guide somewhere around.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] hellboyborn:
Thanks for your reply. Yes it showed the update available but I wanted to unlock the bootloader not wanted to update the phone.I used the only small 1Mb SBF file which was given Download IHOP link. The OP mentioned "These small 1mb SBF files will get your phone ready to fasboot oem unlock. They are the files most people should use.". This is the one I used.

I tried again and it went into fastboot mode, I gave commands and it also got unlocked. Now I am unable to flash recovery file. Now screen says :

Unlocked

fastboot.

I think its not getting recognized as fastboot devicve. When I give command to flash recovery- CMD says:

"waiting for the device" and nothing happens.

I hope now you might have a way to get out of this situation.

SBF File Needed

I hope someone can provide me a unbroken link to the unlock boot loader SBF file for the following Motorola phone.

Model Number - Atrix 4G

System Version - 4.5.141.MB860.ATT.en.US

Android Version - 2.3.6

Build Number - 4.5.141

Carrier: AT&T

I received this phone from someone that was going to recycle it, but it still functioned great. I was wanting to use the phone to learn some more about the Android operating system and custom ROMs. But, before I can do much of anything I need to get the boot loader unlocked. So, if anyone could provide me with a link to the unlock SBF file, I would greatly appreciate it. Every link I've tried so far seems to be broken.

I've seen in one of the earlier posts the file was called "zomgunlock-lite".

Need IHOP sbf file for Canadian Atrix

Hi everyone, and so sorry to resurrect an ancient thread. I need the sbf file for the international Atrix 4g phones. I'm trying to unlock a canadian Atrix 4g bootloader. I've been using an ATT atrix for years as my daily driver (still to this day). I bought an unlocked atrix on ebay, and come to find out it's Canadian! All my sbf files I use to unlock it are different. Does anyone have the IHOP sbf for unlocking canadian atrix's?

As regards "to just installing to install" ectt on one of your statements and also just to be " cool",

Yes I realize this is new to me, but also I have a strong innterst in this.

And I mean that sincerely.

I want to learn as I feel I'm developing a passion .

I have opened up an account here on xda, GitHub, and am looking forward to windows 11

I have a crappy LG k51 phone and my means of flashing, I can upgrade to android 12 I believe among other things.

I cannot afford to buy a new phone T the moment which would have android 12

[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
I had the exact same problem.. finally narrowed that little bastard down to Contacts Sync 2.2.1.. Freeze that f*cker with Ti backup and you should be good. I don't sync my contacts with anything, as I rarely use G-mail, so it doesn't effect me at all.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Paschalis:
okay.. here some noob questions.. :)

1) if i flash the unlock sbf, and then flash the stock sbf 4.1.2.6 , does this relock the bootloader?

because when then phone boots, it doesnt show the unlocked anymore.. :rolleyes:

2) the unlock sbf is the 2.3.4? because it is only 10 mbytes..

3) and another question.. :P

i was on 1.8.3 with gingerblur.. i have a cwm(not the unlocked one) recovery..

to became unlocked on that state what i have to do???

flash the unlock sbf..

then flash the 1.8.3? or the 4.1.2.6(already did:/) and get the two OTA updates, and then restore from the new tenfars full-CWM ??
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
You were fine with gingerblur & 1.83... get back to a rooted 1.83, then flash the unlock.sbf in the OP, then unlock with fastboot. Then after you restart your phone with your new unlocked bootloader, you can flash gingerblur again with either the old CWM or the new fastboot CWM (I would suggest the latter since you no longer have to be plugged in).
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Paschalis:
flash again gingerblur?

hmm...

i have a cwm recovery... (made with old cwm) ...

so i get 183 rooted..

then re-unlock my bootloader, and then just restore the cwm backup i made?

(the restore i will do it with the new fastboot CWM.. )

btw flashing 4.1.5.2 relocks bootloader? if does so, you guys in america wont void your guarantee..
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
If you already un-locked your bootloader it should remain unlocked... if you flashed another sbf over the unlocked bootloader, then it should still be unlocked but the unlock will be missing from the boot screen. You should already be rooted too since you already had CWM, unless you lost your root after flashing an sbf, in which case yeah you need to re-root to get back into CWM to restore your backup.... will the backup erase your unlocked bootloader... I doubt it. After you restore everything, why don't you try installing the new CWM to make sure you're unlocked. Or just re-falsh the unlock.sbf file.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] dincodee:
After unlocking boot loader, I cannot lock my phone now. It goes straight to the home page and no lock slider. Also the home button does not work as well. Nothing happens when I press home. Any one have any ideas on how to fix this?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Paschalis:
hmm.. so..

what i did..

I was on 183 gingerblurred..

Then unlocked using unlock sbf.

Then flashed 4.1.5.2, then got the 2 OTA updates..

then root, cwm, and restored the backup..

After..

i tried to install the fastboot CWM and failed..

then i re-flashed the unlock-sbf.. and i didnt had to use again the fastboot unlock command.. when i was flashing again the unlock-sbf, the phone wrote again "unlocked" ..

and then CWM threw fastboot installed okay! :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] andrx:
the same thing.....full flash, 2 OTA, gingerbreak, unlock SBF and CWM but i still have the motorecovery :mad:
[Atrix 4G Android Development] thegregulator:
Did you guys set up your motoblur accounts? These are common issues if you skip the initial set up.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] phobos512:
Hey quick question for folks...its it possible to unpack/mod the unlock sbf by deleting CG61 so that it won't delete user data partition? This was done on the 126 and 183 sbfs with much success.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] the2dcour:
You are clearly mistaken.

1) I removed /data (CG61) from 1.2.6.

2) 1.8.3 came without it

3) Pudding doesn't have CG61 in it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] BravoMotorola:
It wipes your /data to where it re runs you through the motoblur setup. But when you start up you can select either the motoblur setup or the launcher. I selected the launcher. Sense on the motoblur setup you can't go home to skip out of it, it is running in the background so you can't use the home button. I also know for me I couldn't get passed the setup when selecting motoblur on start up, it would just loop me through it again and again. From then on things got messed up and it wouldn't boot up. So I flashed back to stock, re flashed the unlock sbf, and went straight into fastboot and flashed the HK 2.3.4 dev build.

Now things are going GREAT:D
[Atrix 4G Android Development] phobos512:
I asked a question, can't see how I'm mistaken for doing so. The thread I read last night discussed both 126 and 183, perhaps I misinterpreted what I was reading. I'm not an Android developer so I thought I'd ask people more knowledgeable than I, that's all.

So the answer is NO, changing the SBF so that /data doesn't get wiped can't be done. That's what I wondered. Thanks. That alone makes it worthwhile to me to just wait until the legit Gingerbread update (or a more compelling ROM) is released as I have had so much bad luck with backups over the years, while I have them I'd rather not risk it at this point.

Back to your regularly scheduled programming...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] totalimmortal363:
Took a few times but this worked. The actual setup looped over and over but for whatever reason I decided that try to make a call, I had a notification that I had a VM so that worked. I selected the notification, pressed home and that brought me to my home screen, then I ended the call from the notification bar. BAM!

Although, i did a restore with Titanium Backup and lost my home button again so I had to re do everything a few times.

YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE MOTOBLUR SETUP, NOT JUST GET TO THE SCREEN.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] SolidHelix:
Is there a way to get back to the MOTOBLUR account setups if you skipped? I think I skipped.. might be what's causing a few minor problem's I'm having
[Atrix 4G Android Development] totalimmortal363:
I got back to it by doing a basic factory data reset from the phone itself. It did the normal thing but the end seemed odd, I got a confirmation that the reset had completed successfully but no reboot, the message stayed there and the LED flashed red rapidly. I had to pull the battery out myself and it rebooted like normal, still showing "unlocked" during boot up. Viola, Motoblur setup! :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] the2dcour:
I didn't mean you were mistaken for asking, just that you were mistaken in your information. The /data wipe happens because of how fastboot oem unlock works not because of the sbf =)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] thegregulator:
I think you can clear the defaults in the setup apk under applications in settings?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] climo:
Reading this thread it seems once you flash the SBF, you must setup your motoblur account or you will have issues with the home button? Is this correct? Or does the home button not allow you to setup motoblur and most of you choose launcher?

Once you setup your motoblur account is everything working ok? Just want to make sure before I flash the SBF.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] totalimmortal363:
I had to add .exe in mine if I remember correctly
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
I backed up everything with Ti backup and after unlocking was presented with a choice of either setup or launcher... I choose launcher... low & behold my home button didn't work, so I then restored all system data and apps with Ti backup and my problem was solved after a restart.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] carmo2y:
Just unlocked it, following the guide and everything worked flawlessly.

We have a erro in the file at:
