[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cochranjd:
I just got my Atrix a few days ago - had 2.3/4.5.91 off the shelf, which I was thinking had an unlocked bootloader.

I've dug around many threads, but it seems that most of them deal with coming up to 2.3 from an older version and I'm just trying to get my bearings.

I initially used the method described here to get root access, which works (I can gain su access in terminal emulator).

I then tried to use both fastboot and moto-fastboot to install romracer's CWM described here.

Unfortunately for me, doing both the "erase recovery" and "flash recovery" lines as listed in the post gave me "FAILED" output.

I then tried the ROM Manager method explained in the NOOB thread (which is awesome, by the way) and when I went to install the ROM from SD, it rebooted, but gave me a "Failed to boot 2", "Entering RSD Mode" error.

I was able to reboot into normal operation and then had to leave for a while and while I was out I started wondering if my assumption that my phone's boot loader was already unlocked was wildly inaccurate.

I don't want to just keep trying things cause I'm terribly afraid of killing my phone, so I thought I'd stop and ask to see if somebody could help get me started.

Ultimate goal is to get Alien running on the thing.

Thanks.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phobos512:
To elaborate more on the previous poster's message, no Atrix comes from the factory unlocked, and Motorola did NOT include a bootloader with the "fastboot oem unlock" command built in on seemingly any carrier's devices. It was a beta version of the HKTW Gingerbread build that had the bootloader, and that is what "pudding" is. There is a sticky thread in the development section that will explain how to unlock. It's pretty straightforward. There are also several tools that automate the process so you might try one of those.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cochranjd:
Thanks - I saw the automated script and other methods that were mentioned by the NOOB thread but wasn't sure if those apply to me - obviously they do!

Thanks alot!

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cochranjd:
Great - so I was able to get the script to unlock my bootloader and all is good on that front.

I then went an installed romracer's CWM.

At this point, if I install ROM Manager, and reboot into recovery will it boot into romracer's CWM or should I have installed ROM Manager FIRST? Does it matter (it seems like recovery is a particular partition, so I'm guessing ROM Manager just reboots to whatever is there, but not sure).

Is ROM Manager the only way to boot into recovery (I'm pretty sure you can do it without ROM Manager, just can't track down how).

Thanks for the help with the bootloader - appreciate it, guys (and gals, if applicable).
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karnovaran:
I don't use ROM Manager so not sure about your other questions, but here's how to boot into recovery manually:

- Power the phone off

- Hold volume down and power

- Wait for 'fastboot' to appear

- Press volume down to cycle through the options until you get to 'android recovery'

- Press volume up

you can use rom mamager to install its base vesion;4.0.1.4 clock work mod version but qfter that look for the 3.2update for cwm then flash the update with the color you like i use cyan then your cwm should read 4.0.1.4-atrix3.2 i think it works the best (fyi) oh it looks like its updated again to 4.0.1.5atrix

Just wondering if anyone has successfully ported the Bionic boot animation .zip file over to this bad boy. I don't know how to convert a .zip to a .qmg so I have no idea what to do. Tried dropping the .zip into /system/media and suddenly it decided to use the stock Android green boot screen instead of the Charge eye. Strange.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Danzanzio:
Find it by doing a google search. Change the file name to bootanimation.zip and move it to your system/media folder using root explorer.

Edit: Here is the sound file as an .mp3 but I can't get it synced with the animation.

Hey guys,

I'm trying to boot a PC from my Atrix SD card, to be able to access various testing and backup tools. I have these on a USB drive now, but I would love to be able to have them all waiting and ready on my phone. I have made the SD card bootable, and confirmed that it works by booting off of it plugged directly into the computer. However, no matter what I try, The computer will not boot when the Atrix is plugged in as a USB hard drive. Has anyone been able to do this or have any ideas?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barry99705:
I've not tried it, but I think the Atrix is seeing the computer restarting and taking itself out of usb drive mode until it sees a connection on the usb, then goes back in, which is too late for the bios to see it as bootable. Just my theory.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdraconis:
No, the computer recognizes it as 2 bootable devices, both of them named "Motorola MB860". I assumed that one was the internal drive and the other was the microSD. However, no matter which one I pick, it does not boot from it.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdraconis:

unhappiness , etc. Flash at your own risk !!! ***

Directions :

1: download .zip from below and put it on your SD Root

to system/customize/resources and paste in there .

3: Rename original bootanimation.zip to bootanimation.bak or move it

to your SD Root to use for later if wanted .

4: make sure it is named bootanimation.zip and nothing else or it

will NOT work .

5: Long press bootanimation.zip and click permissions . Make sure this is

selected below inorder to work properly .

If this is not selected properly

you will get a black blank screen !!!

Owner: read & write checked, execute unchecked

Group: read checked, rest unchecked

Others: read checked, rest unchecked

6: Restart and Enjoy !

for people having problem with install : Thanks for this Dougi !

you can try this :

thx for that - worth 4 some extra reboots :D
[HTC Sensation] innerspace:
just fyi, pushed this zip to /system/media and adb rebooted

Worked fine, although the phone boots so quickly the apple falls and then my homescreen launches.

Animation does appear a little on the dim side but i like it, great job.
[HTC Sensation] j0hnnyn:
does this work with android revolution hd 3.6?
[HTC Sensation] Floris-k:
Yes it works, but you have to do it with ES explorer like it's mentioned in the OP. Already had some fun with Apple fanboys ;)

[HTC Sensation] extirpate:
Yes i have root. SU grants permissions. That checked out ok. From root explorer i dont see a "SD Root" directory. I have root/, and i have sdcard/. I went into both. The root directory is empty. The sd card directory doesn't have system, customize or resource sub directories. I found the system directory below the root and sdcard directory but no customize from there. Browsing around system i found a media sub directory and within it i found bootanimation.zip. Not sure if i should try and paste this zip in there and remove the current one. Im still fairly new at flashing stuff to my device so im not sure what to do if it doesnt work. Would it just give a blank screen instead of animation and then boot so i can change it back? Thanks for the response and help.
[HTC Sensation] lalibm:
Awesome boot animation :cowboy:
[HTC Sensation] extirpate:
I just decided to go ahead and replace the file in system/media using Root Explorer and it still wasnt working. I tried changing permissions, and still it would not play the animation. The animation playing WAS a different animation than stock razr. Just the word Android flashing from left to right. It actually looked pretty cool. That was with a .zip that wasnt working. I later tested it with no .zip in the folder and still got that animation.Thought that was interesting. All in all i was able to get it working by renaming the .zip to plain "bootanimation.zip."

Funny it says HTC at the bottom of the animation on my Motorola phone. smh. Still an awesome animation. Can anyone clear that HTC logo?

Thanks for the help. Hope to try out more.

Just a quick note. If you use CM or possibly some other non Sense ROM on your Sensation, the original boot animation is in /system/media so you have to copy this custom animation there. Rest of the instructions are the same as in the OP.
