[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bert.C:
Words of wisdom ... or warning!

By following this guide, you are agreeing that neither I nor anyone else apart from yourself is responsible for any damage, loss of earnings, fire, theft, the milk not being delivered or bricking your device - you are doing the modding so you are to blame if anything goes wrong!

I will credit the original authors of all the files I have included in my guide as best as I can, if I have missed you out then I do apologise.

With thanks to: kennethpenn, SamCripp, Stevendeb25, eval-, Edgan, Mossys, papy-polo, the2dcour, plus anyone that I have missed.​

Note: I have linked file downloads from the guides I used when I rooted, unlocked and flashed my device. I will included a link to the thread so if the links are broken then you should look in the threads for updated links - also just let me know and I'll try to fix them.

Right on with the guide...​

Rooting:

Downloads:

- Atrix drivers - Download: 32-bit | 64-bit

- Gingerbreak - Download

Instructions:

1. Install drivers

2. Run gingerbreak.exe

3. Give the phone a minute or two and then open the app drawer to find "Gingerbreak"

4. Run gingerbreak from your phone

5. Click 'root now'

6. Wait for your phone to reboot

Whayy! Your now rooted - If all went well.​

Tegrapart?.. You need this to flash the correct boot.img later on.

Downloads:

Terminal emulator - Download from market

Instructions:

1. Download and run 'Terminal emulator'

2. Enter:

su

- you may be prompted to by SuperUser, press remember and then press 'Allow'

3. Now enter:

cat /proc/cmdline

4.a. That command will return quite a large string of text, scan through it untill you find something that starts something like this: 'tegrapart=mbr:'

4.b. If you see tegrapart=mbr:d00:100:800,kpanic:2100:400:800: then just remember that your device is

d00

4.c. If you see tegrapart=mbr:1100:100:800,kpanic:2500:400:800: then you need to remember that your device is
