[Atrix 4G General] eskimopunk:
Not sure if anybody else ran into this problem with command prompt, but...

"C:\Atrix\" is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file

I got that a lot. The only way I got around it was using cd\Atrix\ instead of C:\Atrix\ and it worked perfectly. I also did it in the Administrator version of cmd prompt (right click > run as administrator or CTRL+SHIFT+Enter if you type cmd.exe in the windows panel) so not sure if that makes a difference or not.

Then I just continued from Step1.11

Thanks! Rooted now :D
[Atrix 4G General] katinatez:
I am not sure how you got to this point but from what I could read. it says NO OS DETECTED (OS is acronym for Operating System).

My question is do you already have an Unlocked Bootloader?

second have you installed unlocked recovery from Tenfar or Romracer?

I prefer Romracer recovery check this out http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1204500

To answer your question, you dont have an Operating System after you unlock bootloader you have to go flash OS 2.3.4 thru recovery, try the fruitcakes http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1163009

Also go to briefmobile to follow how to unlock bootloader

[Atrix 4G General] katinatez:
No its not bad ,I use recovery too. As long as your phone boots up its all good.

Alien Atrix

Same here. And when I try to go back into RSDLite to try again from the beginning, it doesn't see the device.

Any ideas?

Hi there. I had the impression that unlocking is for FWs which is 1.83 and above. Im currently on 1.26. Is it possible to unlock the BL?
[Atrix 4G General] nolesrule:
A PC reboot solved the problem.

After that I got the 0x1000 like everyone else and proceeded through the instructions and it worked.
[Atrix 4G General] rickleasa:

[Atrix 4G General] katinatez:
You have to update all the way to 1.8.3

From 1.2.6 update to 1.5.7 then 1.8.3

Then find this download >1.8.3 full sbf with unlocker (why are you using 1.8.3?) in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1136261

Or if you want to update to the newest release without worrying about bricking because of OTA I recommend this download in the same thread http://www.multiupload.com/C0I82IXH7V - 2.3.4 full sbf with unlocker and /preinstall root

2.3.4 is the newest Gingerbread Operating System with the unlocker and preinstall is a permanent root loaded into the bootloader.

Or you can update to 1.8.3 then install ONLY 1.8.3 unlocker> install Romracers recovery then flash any ROM like Alien,PieCrust,Aura,CM7.

I recomend you read entire thread also read Kenneths tutorial on unlocking found here http://briefmobile.com/how-to-unlock-the-atrix-4g-bootloader this is what I used to unlock mine. Good Luck
[Atrix 4G General] t2ohio:
how did you specify a location?
[Atrix 4G General] sephk:
I bought my Atrix on ebay and it had come rooted. Once I updated to GB OTA, it obviously lost root. Now when I check the root status with the root checker app, it says I don't have root but have busybox. I want to get back root and want to follow the root part of this guide (which I think, is the same as whats on rootzwiki).

Now my question is, is there a bricking or any other problem/risk that I may face, given that I already have busybox installed. I read somewhere that this may mess up the rooting process, as it may create busybox dupe.

Sorry, if it is a dumb question. I am a noob when it comes to Android rooting, unlocking or rom-ming. Not so tech noob otherwise and trying to pick up on Android.

EDIT- researched a bit more and found that it used to be an old problem with super-one-click. Went ahead with the rootzwiki process. Everything worked fine, but the superuser app would force close everytime. Same thing after reboot, clearing app data and install from market. Uninstalled and reinstalled the superuser app, and then it worked.

Yeah this wiped my data as well on OTA 2.3.4. Ill have to go back through it, I did not have much data so I did not mind losing it. It did not wipe the physical data just the settings and reverted the unit back to stock, had to reset up motoblur, finger print reader etc.

Recovery

I completed all of the steps (much thanks btw) but I'm having this issue that whenever I attempt to enter clockwork recovery my phone just displays and android with an exclamation mark and I have to pull the battery and reboot the phone. The only time it will go into recovery is right after I flash recovery through rom manager, other then that if I reboot into recovery via power off+volume button to recovery mode it'll display that android exclamation.

RSD Lite Error Code on Vista

I've been searching all through the xda forums but you seem to be the only other person I find having the same problem installing Rsd lite on Vista (same error code). I saw you were able to DL 5.0...so I gave it a shot and it worked for me too.

[Atrix 4G General] zeropants:
I should probably know this by now, but what do I miss out on if the device is only rooted?

I'm assuming it's changing radios, but I don't know what else unlocking the bootloader does for you. If I can change roms and kernels with the 1-click option I might just do that for now. I followed the instructions here and each time I got stuck with "No OS detected, going to RSD mode in 5 seconds" after step 8. I had to download and reinstall the OEM rom.

Did you do the one click root from my link or the one from this thread? i did not get that RSD message at all.

Superuser... unlock... root... wtf?

Myself included, everybody seems to be getting something along these lines:

C:\Atrix>adb shell

$ /preinstall/dosu

/preinstall/dosu

bash: groups: command not found

root@localhost:/# /preinstall/dosu

/preinstall/dosu

root@localhost:/# PATH=/system/bin:$PATH pm install /preinstall/Superuser.apk

PATH=/system/bin:$PATH pm install /preinstall/Superuser.apk

pkg: /preinstall/Superuser.apk

Success

root@localhost:/#

I don't know exactly why we see root@localhost after attempting to navigate to /preinstall/dosu but I don't think I actually get navigated to that folder, and I think the prompt is reset at that point. Can someone confirm this?

Next, we follow the instructions and ADB echoes our commands, but only the last step where we install the Superuser app provides any feedback and it's a plain jane operation to install any app onto your device using ADB...

The question is are we really rooted at this point?

Tough to say in my mind... how can I confirm that I'm actually rooted?

---------- Post added at 01:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:30 AM ----------

Okay... so I was mucking in ADB wondering aloud about the meaning of it all when I decided to reboot the phone through ADB. ADB said permission denied, and I said, Oh.. awesome, so much for that whole rooting thing.

Then I decided to say su reboot and the Atrix popped a message up asking if I wished to give rights.

I said yes and it said Unknown has been given Superuser rights.

So after rebooting, I decided to just pop 'su' into ADB and the Atrix provided me the opportunity again to permit rights. Which I did. Now I'm going to try to the BriefMobile proceadure.

Edit: No difference/point.

Overthinking it. Superpermissions are a-go. Thanks a million!

Hello been floating around here a while finally joined. Anyways I followed this guide the other nite unlocked superuser on my ATRIX and cannot get my phone to go into android recovery to install cm7. I followed the guide on this then used the guide on the official cm7 ATRIX and topic. It let me go into recovery once but I didn't know what directory cm7 was in so I booted android back up. After that I could never get back into the boot menu. Tuxedo really want to get this done.

I am currently on rooted 8.4.4.5 rooted with CWM and netflix fix. I want to upgrade to rooted HC 3.2 with CWM and netflix. What is the best course of action?

Do i need to flash to 8.4.4.11 via CWM first?

Then after that there is the brk method or the roach method. Which would cause me less hassle ?

Also can i use the brk method without doing the 8.4.4.11 flash?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carrrnuttt:
I'm not going to do the 8.4.4.11 rooted stock ROM search for you, since that thread is seemingly buried, but I was in the same boat as you (rooted stock 8.4.4.5).

I went ahead and flashed the rooted stock 8.4.4.11 over 8.4.4.5 (going straight to 8.6.5.7 will NOT work - I tried it), then booted. Rebooted back into recovery, then flashed this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1198066

After that, I flashed this custom ROM over stock (optional, of course): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1154939

All of that I did with simple cache wipe and dalvik wipe. No data wiping and I retained my apps all through it. Oh, and all of it with CWM, of course.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Finky:
I did find the 8.4.4.11 thread with the patch .zip not the full rom though which should be just fine. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1178607

I also remembered that i have the OC Kernel v16 from Clemsyn-Blades: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1202884

Will this kernel be a problem when i upgrade to 3.2 or will it just be wiped with flash to HC 3.2?

I also have the US version and have read that the upgrade to 8.6.5.7 killed their CWM. Im curious if that has been fixed, because i only saw that it was fixed in the WW version. I could probably just use brk's script to install cwm again, if someone can verify that that works...? I forget how i even got cwm on there originally...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carrrnuttt:
I did all the flashing using CWM and it didn't affect CWM at all. Also, don't be surprised if you find your bluetooth isn't working after all this. See here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1192805

^ The exact same issue happened with my TF. That's when I flashed the custom ROM I linked to over stock rooted 3.2, and got BT working again. That ROM already has the Clemsyn kernel included, so I didn't worry about installing the kernel separately.

[HTC EVO 3D] hankbear:
If you were to use HTCs method to unlock your bootloader, they now have your serial number or other unique identifier for your phone. If you are paying for insurance, Sprint does the warranty work for free, like if the screen suddenly stopped working due to some other reason than mishandling. So, whether you can or can't lock your bootloader back down, HTC has your serial number as one that has been unlocked.

The question is, are they sharing it with Sprint, and will Sprint then not fix your phone like they would have had you not unlocked it at all?

Makes me so thankful I don't have to rely on HTC for unlocking!
[HTC EVO 3D] spencer88:
I don't believe anybody has the answer to this question. We have to wait and see.
[HTC EVO 3D] tgruendler:
What I don't understand is why would any of us care??? Since we have our own method of getting S-OFF, why would we even consider doing what HTC wants. There is nothing, NOTHING, that HTC will offer with their bootloader unlocking that is positive to the modidng community.
[HTC EVO 3D] Dave2582:
At this point, I wouldn't worry about it since the tool isn't out yet, and we have a way of reverting back to S-ON and RUU'ing to a stock phone.

Some brave soul will take the bait later down the road and will be a guinea pig for us to see what will happen once they surrender their info to HTC.
[HTC EVO 3D] zone23:
I don't plan to use their F-OFF tool unless my phone magically takes an OTA or I get a replacement and cant F it OFF myself.
[HTC EVO 3D] cruise350:
Why would it matter for insurance. Insurance is insurance not warranty service. I can take my phone and throw it on the ground as hard as I can and call Assurion and they will replace it whether its rooted or not. I'll have to pay the $100 deductible but it won't matter if I'm rooted or not.

Now if your going to make a warranty claim and HTC has your SN and has marked it in the system as not being authorized for warranty work then yes your screwed.
[HTC EVO 3D] SITH16:
I used revolutionary S-off and then flashed the Eng hboot. I won't be using htc's OTA.
[HTC EVO 3D] GooseEye:
Because Sprint Total Equipment Protection(TEP) insurance is comprised of the Equipment Service & Repair Program(ESRP) and the Equipment Replacement Program(ERP). ESRP covers warranty issues during and after the manufacturers warranty and ERP covers accidental damage(water, theft, and total destruction). I wouldn't want to be paying $8 per month and find out that the ESRP portion is worthless.
[HTC EVO 3D] nuvens:
Hmm anyone worried we had to give our serial number in order to use the Revolutionary tool, kind of like what HTC wants us to do, hmmm (being paranoid).......
[HTC EVO 3D] ExploreMN:
I have a crazy idea here. Why not call Sprint and ask? Just say "Hey, I'm thinking of unlocking my bootloader which will void my HTC warranty and I am wondering if I am still covered under your insurance?"

I mean...its just a thought... But it might be better to take the advice of random strangers who may or may not know the real answer.
[HTC EVO 3D] firemedic1343:
In theory you are right. But in practice you will get a different answer from every rep you speak with.
[HTC EVO 3D] ExploreMN:
Document document document...write down the time, date, rep name, etc. Or if they say no it is not covered, have them tell you where it states that in the agreement so you can read it yourself.
[HTC EVO 3D] GooseEye:
That and a nickel will get you...well, a nickel. Sprint reps give different answers on existing policy, much less one that probably doesn't exist yet. Someone might have better luck emailing every Sprint Exec they can find, including Dan himself, to get a semi-straight answer. At this point their answer will probably go something like, "We are working on this policy and details will be forthcoming". I was just throwing a scenario out there on one possible way Sprint could screw us over. It's speculative, I know, but entirely possible with Sprint. I don't plan to register with HTC/Sprint, so it was more of a warning to others.
[HTC EVO 3D] ExploreMN:
Well, if that is the view, then even getting an "experienced" response on here would be just as worthless. I think you would do much better to document your call, question and response as I suggest rather than waiting until after the fact and saying "But GooseEye on the XDA forums said that HIS phone was covered after unlocking the bootloader." I'm pretty sure that little piece of information would make the Sprint rep laugh before saying no.
[HTC EVO 3D] GooseEye:
I think you're applying my response too broadly.

In this specific situation with regard to warranty coverage through paid Sprint insurance, documenting a rep's response about whether warranty work will or won't be covered on a HTC unlocked bootloader phone, without existing policy in place, will mean nothing. A honest rep should say there's no policy in place yet to answer that question, in which case documentation is moot. A dishonest or misinformed rep could give you wrong info, and while documented by you, will really get you nowhere. Time will pass, account notes will expire, apologies will be issued, but the promise won't be honored. If you put up a good fight, they might end up honoring it, for that one time only.

On a broader scale, and with existing policy, it's always a good idea to document. I do it myself and it's paid off numerous times. But I've always used the "experienced" responses from this and other forums to know what the existing policy is, what to ask for, and whether the rep's response holds any weight or whether they're just blowing smoke. Not all reps interpret all policy correctly, store reps being notoriously bad, so it helps to know whether they're giving you empty promises.

I assume you're just hypothetically using my name in your insurance coverage example but I have to say that I never stated anywhere in my posts that Sprint insurance warranty coverage w/unlocked bootloader will in fact work a certain way. In fact, I was cautioning that there could be other, as yet unverified ramifications, other than the HTC warranty. A pessimistic view for sure, but one that doesn't tend to leave people with false hope.
