[Atrix 4G Android Development] Bosnazmaj:
Thanks for the leak. Install worked like a charm. Only issue that I had was not knowing that in windows 7 when you rename the file just to type update and not update.zip. Other wise worked like a charm.

On the other note, has anyone else noticed that the haptic feedback is stronger then before, or is it just mine?

Thanks again.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jstuart83:
wow im getting a 2430 on quadrant and the new interface is awesome this is great many thanks for this release
[Atrix 4G Android Development] yokozuna82:
this is awesome my birthday came early this year....now how do i root without unlocking bootloader
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Celidonius:
If you're using Windows 7, it automatically names the file a .zip file. So if you named it "update.zip" and moved it to your phone, the file on the phone will be "update.zip.zip" and won't work.

Yes I know, random, but it happened to me so I'm just stating this in case this helps anyone else out.

Nevermind, people already stated this above! I've been on this page for a while without refreshing lol.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
so once your phone is on RSD mode reflash sbf 183, problem solve, and be carefu, unplugin while flashing sbf could really dmg your phone
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jstuart83:
This may not be the best place for this post but its related to this Rom i was also able to install the netflix apk and it works flawlessly just wanted to let everyone know p.s. you dont have to be rooted or unlocked to install it
[Atrix 4G Android Development] waktasz:
It only does that if you have noob settings...namely "hide extensions for known file types" checked, in folder options.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] p0xer:
can you flash this on locked bootloader?

is it rootable via Gingerbreak?

would be really helpful

thanks folks
[Atrix 4G Android Development] waktasz:
Jesus dude, you didn't even read the entire first post. It's all right there.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jstuart83:
yea i know i keep that option set my wife uses the computer as well and i don't want her messing anything up by accident lol
[Atrix 4G Android Development] p0xer:
ur right, sry.. my bad.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jstuart83:
I wouldn't try it yet i would follow the directions as they are posted that's why there there as far as being rootable im sure if you search the forum you will find the answers you seek young grasshopper

Ive also noticed with the laptop dock webtop seems to be a lot faster.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] MvP77:
Thanx A lot. I just got an Atrix today and flashed this soon as I got home. Had no problems. Phone was completely stock.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nsaia:
I had this same problem too, but a different variation. I copied the file as is from Windows 7 to the phone, then renamed it to "update.zip" there. I didn't mess with the file extension, only changed the filename. I had to take the ".zip" file extension off to make it work.

Hope this saves others some trouble.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] Bosnazmaj:
Can you point to the netflix.apk location.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Bosnazmaj:
Make sure that you have renamed it only update and not update.zip if you are using windows 7

What would be the best way to root your phone after installing 4.5.91 through this method?

The OP has two links, but which is better, or are they the same?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Datblkbro:
Yea I read dat here, but already knew dat part.. it goes on ext or int sd??
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
the E: cant open whatever whatever is a usual error, as the updates are usual store in the cache partition and since we did not update the usual way ;) the recovery is not found.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nineismine:
Works like a champ so far!

Will flashing this to my wifes phone wipe all of her apps and data?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
the linked called unlock, will take you to a tutorial about unlocking the boot loader, and the one named root takes you to a method to root the android, use the one on the third post, with the fastboot preinstall img, works on all builds
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Datblkbro:
oh ok, I thought so.. well Im gonna just reflash the sbf on this post and try again..
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kimmikolter:
Reboot and go into the file explorer app. Take off your extra .zip (windows 7 auto setting hides it when you added it to your card). Flash. Same problem happened to me.

No it will not wipe all her apps. it's just like updating ota. Just not through ota :D

and we do need to update the radio as well or is it working well with the radio from 1.83?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mysticdrew:
Anyones phone running hotter? Mine seems to warmer for longer.

Also may have just been a 1 time quirk but I was around 65% battery when I decided to reboot

Then it showed 75% on reboot... few min later normal drain to 70% then within a couple of seconds went down to 50%...

Other than that things seem great, thanks samscripp and al the other devs?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] asesino:
I have Tenfars recovery and while trying to apply this update from Android recovery I get check patch system/bin/charge only error.

Im guessing this have to do with tenfats recovery that only flashes while the phone ia charging.Is is safe to delete this and re apply the zip?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Datblkbro:
Thanks, Finally got it..
[Atrix 4G Android Development] vjoom:
This suck, i rename the update file correctly and it still say verification fail. installation about.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
this is pure OTA this will update the radio, and the new radio seems faster and more reliable than before!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
on what step are you failing, did you do every step on the guide.?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Datblkbro:
try this.. go to file explorer and erase the .zip right.. then go back and rename it update.zip.. dats wat worked for me finally..
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
bro, you got to read the guide, this does not work on CWM.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jzaslice:
If one never unlocked their bootloader is it safe to follow the same tutorial on briefmobile for unlocking on 1.8.3 after updating to this gb build ??

I already am on ginger bread. Is unlocking ONLY safe from 1.8.3??
[Atrix 4G Android Development] msd24200:
thats kind of what i was thinking one of the other guys that posted this up, someone in his thread said need to update the radio.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
it runs hotter because Gingerbread is using both the cores. Welcome to real dual core. and the battery thing is normal, before you rebooted mroe applications where running so more battery was drain, the percentage was calculate based on the amount of energy needed to run those apps!~

My only complaint is all this damn blue I hate blue..lol

Root thru CWM works like a charm..

question, would I use the same webtop hack I had b4??
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
just so you guys know do not flash back to 183 using sbf, if you already are on the ota 234. people are experiencing hard bricks. if you already flashed this and want to return to 183, do so by flashing the boot img and system img
[Atrix 4G Android Development] gera4ever94:
Has anyone who had any issues updating been able to successfully SBF back to 1.83? I'm asking because I saw a few posts about some people trying to flash back to 1.83 after updating to 2.3.4 for whatever issues they we're having and ended up hard bricking their phone. I'm just trying to take every precaution before I start on this process of updating and unlocking my phone. I guess my question really is, is it possible to flash back after updating using this process?

Edit: Just saw the post above mine after I submitted my question. Thanks

[Atrix 4G Android Development] malfuncion:
Main thing I noticed when watching it update using the OTA was something about update to bootloader to version A20 or something similar? Anyone else notice that?

IMO the way my phone is running now after updating its really good. I wouldn't go back to 1.8.3. The new features are what the last version needed to get up to par. I actually ditched launcher pro for the time being.

Pro tip- when restoring from titanium don't do system settings. When going between versions that's always a bad idea. Do only user APPS and data.

For the people getting verification failed, are you using chrome browser to download? Chrome seemed to have messed up the signature somehow(i think cause it saves the file in chunks and then renames them). I downloaded 3 times with chrome all of which were fail. I used the same link with opera and it worked like a champ. I assume iexplorer is also a go..
[Atrix 4G Android Development] djkinetic:
Would be great if someone provided these 2 img files in case something doesnt work right and you don't want to stay on 2.3.4

im currently at work sir, but when i get there i will make a safe CWM with 183!

i also asure anyone who already did flash this, that they would not want to go back to 183!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] markpaiz:
Clear Instructions: For the tentative update-er on stock 1.8.3. (lol)

If you have a STOCK Atrix (latest update 1.8.3), its a simple process:

What I did, if you have a different method, congrats..

1-Factory Reset (erased all apps and system settings)

2-Insert a MICRO-SD card ( mine was factory fresh, no data on it)

3-Plug in phone, select USB Mass Storage option on phone (I had already installed the moto drivers on my Windows 7 64bit machine)

4-Change name of downloaded file "Blur_Version.4.1.83.MB860.ATT.en.US.zip) to "update.zip"

5-Transfer newly renamed "update.zip" to the Micro-SD Card. (NOT built in storage, must be a removable, Micro-SD card)

6-Power off

7-Hold "volume down" button and power on phone, continue to hold volume down until you see "fast boot" at the top of the screen. (you can let go of the power button once the screen turns on, but hold "volume down" until you see "fast boot".

8-Once you see "fast boot" scroll to "Android Recovery" by pressing volume down.

9-Press "volume up" to select "Android Recovery"

10-Once the screen changes to the standard "android recovery screen" touch either the left or right bottom corner to bring up options, this will be obvious as the screen will all of a sudden have text.

11-Scroll to "apply update.zip from sd card"

12-Once "apply update.zip from sd card" is highlighted, touch the blue "Ok" on the bottom left.

13-Put your phone down, no touchy!

14-Once its done, it will say so , I had to scroll to "reboot system now" because mine didn't do anything once it said the process is complete.("install from sd card complete", or something similar, i forgot...sorry)

!!!-first boot will show red Moto, then power off and back on all the way to sweet delicious Gingerbreads.

Cheers!!!

I followed all of the steps here up to the Pudding part. It was fine. Trying to do that part bricked my phone. Luckily there is an AT&T store at the bottom of the bldg I work at. I told them it powered off during an update to 1.8.3. I was using the latest RSD lite to unlock the bootloader when it happened. Trying to flash back to stock 1.26 or whatever made it worse. It would say failed to boot and then turn off. I would have to constantly remove the battery to get it to do anything. Glad it happened there and not at home.

Able to stream 720p video from youtube (after 10.3 update) buttery smooth video, but voices werent in sync.

No 1080p option for video capture, once again, that I can find.

Long press to uninstall in app menu.

CRT Animation on screen lock (except with animation turned off, which i do, because "do what the f i told you to do, i dont need to see an artsy transition)

OK so I flashed the update, but my method was a little unusual.

I downloaded the update from the link on the XDA App, went into the files application, rename the file to update.zip and moved it to my SD.

I had to try this way because my sd wouldn't

read on my pc, i think my card reader is bad, anyway if anyone else has this same problem, this method works...

Then followed the steps provided on entering fastboot and voila! tasty gingerbread goodness!!!!!:D

This was on a stock, unrooted, locked bootloader, completely stock 1.83.

So i can confirm that it worked there is a video on whats new in 2.3 for the Atrix.

This thing feels blazing fast now there is no lag between screens, moving to apps and the market is insanely fast. This is awesome thanks samcripp!!!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] msd24200:
when you renamed the file did you make sure to have your pc set to show file extensions? if not and you renamed it update.zip then you actually made it update.zip.zip. this is just in case, some users may not know this but you may have already known this.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
Don't thank me sir there's tons of people who worked together last night to get this builds. And remenwr you can't go back to 183. So don't try it

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shinydude100:
Here's my situation, I'm on Epic Experience 1.2.07 Eclair. And I've been wanting to Update to either the newest custom Rom of Epic Experience, as well as try to update to newer custom roms who are updated often. It's very frutrating to have payed a 75$ fee for a Metro PCS programming Fee, without having the freedom to change my rom because they say the service will stop working. I use to own a Touch Pro 2 and I had programmed and flashed that phone on my own. But coming to a smart phone is a slightly different ball game. I now live in Oregon, where MetroPCS doesn't even exist! So, I'm roaming with only talk and text working. Having said that, the 75$ fee I had payed in the past has become worthless. I've already done a Nandroid backup using clockworkmod, and I've noticed while booting into recovery that the advanced backup and restore shows single options like 'restoring data' and etc. Theoretically, if I flash to a rom and things don't get worked out, (like service) I know I can restore back to my working eclair and rom with my Profile Phone Data working or whatever. Can anyone help?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] AriaNoob:
I have done 3 different backups and they come out bad...I compared one good backup with the bad ones using root explorer and what I see is that the cache.img,

android_secure.img and nandroid.md5 files are all 0kb...

Why is that happening? Thanks for the help!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ebennick:
I can think of a couple reasons. Have you flashed an EXT4 firmware but not the EXT4 compatible CWM? Or did you buy a 32gb microsd card for a ridiculously low price from Hong Kong on Ebay?

My guess is the first reason, you may have made your good backup before installing the EXT4 firmware, therefore CWM had no problem reading it. But after flashing an EXT4 firmware it lost the ability to read the boot partition or any other partitions that were converted to EXT4.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] AriaNoob:
You are absolutely right! Thanks bro! Beers on me! :)
