Thx for the uber post for a 10 days old noob like me lol

this really give me confidence to try playing with the custom rom like supercharge

tho i ended up soft bricking on SCV5 update 2 and pulled out battery ~.~

Right when I got frustrated and was going to fxz thru RSD, I discovered my led light was blinking blue when i put my battery back in. Then, somehow i got into CWM recovery mode accidentally by dunno pressing power + volume ?? and solved the problem by restoring backup. Which I cannot get that happen again ==;;

So, I am just thinking, is there a definite way to run CWM recovery mode under power off status, without going thru artix2 Bootstrap? Scanned quite a bit on web and seems no one mentioning this in artix2 as it has bootloader locked. But as I were able to get into it from power off once accidentally, there should be a way of getting to it reliably.

If anyone knows or figured that, it would be much easier and efficient than running FXZ everytime when something get doomed. :D
[Motorola Atrix 2] dirf:
Hi. First of all, thank you so much for this thread. All the tid bits of information I read scattered about get extremely overwhelming, but after your post, I feel I have a pretty firm understanding of all of this.

So, I was rooted on the original firmware, and then updated to 2.3.6 and lost root. I tried flashing the FXZ back, but I've been staring at this (attachment) for over an hour, and I'm quite convinced it's not actually doing anything. The phone hasn't changed off of "Battery OK OK to Program Transfer Mode: USB Connected" the entire time. I was ready to just pull the plug, but since you advised against it, I figured I'd better not.
[Motorola Atrix 2] SeekerLoki:
Something has definitely gone wrong with your flash. You don't need to flash the FXZ to get root back after the update. There is a newer exploit available to regain root. Look at the section for root under 2.3.6 on the original post.
[Motorola Atrix 2] dirf:
Yeah, I realized that shortly after I started flashing. Do you think it's safe to stop/unplug though? I'm assuming nothing is actually being written, so I'm probably fine. Guess I'll try it and find out...

It told me (Flash Failure), held in Volume up + down + power, picked normal boot, and it appears to work fine, but now when I try turning my phone off and on, it straight back into the Fastboot screen with the "(Flash Failure)" message. Is this going to cause problems later on? Should I perhaps try flashing it again? The three hours of it sitting there doing nothing managed to drain the battery from 90% to 10%. Also tried the 2.3.6 root as is and got "permission denied" errors.
[Motorola Atrix 2] SeekerLoki:
I'm not sure about booting to flash failure every time. My guess is successfully flashing the FXZ will fix it. Before you flash anything, let your phone charge! Anybody with more knowledge is welcome to jump in here. What OS are you running? Some people have had trouble using RSD under Vista.

To get a better idea of why your root attempt failed, you can delete the line "@echo off" in the click-to-run.bat file and capture all of the output into a log file and post the results. Something like:

1. Open command window (the rest are commands you will type in the command window)

2. cd \exploit\is\located\here (The path will depend on where you extracted the exploit)

3. notepad Click-To-Run.bat (make changes and save the file)

4. Click-To-Root.bat > results.txt

This will allow help to point out where the failure happened.

Good luck!
[Motorola Atrix 2] dirf:
Yeah, I'm gonna let it get to 100% to make darn sure there's no problems.

Using my Windows 7 machine for this.

That is an excellent idea! Will definitely try that when I get back.

Update: Re-flashed, making sure to run RSD Lite as Admin this time (not sure whether or not I did the first time) and it worked! Used the 2.3.5 root method, then edited mount_ext3.sh as described, updated to 2.3.6 again and it all worked without a hitch! Thanks so much JRW 28 and SeekerLoki, and of course everyone who made this stuff possible. Now time to try loading up Supercharged, wish me luck!

Unable to Flash FXZ get error message in step 3.

Guys,

I bricked my phone after I RESTORED ATRIX BLAZE ROM V2, and when i went to restore my phone through FXZ.

I get the below error. Please help me guys.

P.S I am coming from Stock 2.3.6, and From India, does that have to do anything with this FXZ not being supported?
[Motorola Atrix 2] DarkJatrix:
Did you add in the extra files from the original post? Since coming from 2.3.6 you need to add extra files to the fxz file

Edit: seen its from India. No clue then. :(

Sent from my A2 running abv1
[Motorola Atrix 2] zeph_syk:
Yeah I added those extra files as well :( I guess i have to take to service center now :(
[Motorola Atrix 2] DarkJatrix:
Just tell them you went to update it and it went crazy.

[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Have you tried flashing the manual way without using RSD lite.

I have posted this before, and we know it works.

I am making several assumptions here, like that you know how to get into fast boot, and have adb installed and the fastboot command also installed. If you don't have the fastboot command here it is, just copy it to the platform-tools directory of the SDK install:

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=908139&d=1329592612

Here is how to do it:

boot into fastboot

Then from the directory that you have the fxz file unziped to, do this from the command prompt:

fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash preinstall preinstall.img

Do this ONLY with the standard 2.3.5 files, don't mess with the changing of the files from 2.3.6 and the xml file change.

This WILL revert you back to 2.3.5 then you can redo the update, it is posted on the Motorola site, I unfortunately can't remember the link to it right now. I am sure if you so a search you can find it.
[Motorola Atrix 2] zeph_syk:
Thanks,

Will try it now.. and will keep you posted.

---------- Post added at 08:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:43 PM ----------

OK, so when i entered the flash system.img, i get the below error..

sending 'system' (491264 KB)...

OKAY [ 24.159s]

writing 'system'...

Is it something to be worried about :( Please help

Edit:

Went to service center now everything back Up and running :) Now... lets try that ROM again shall we :)

Would you know if the 2.3.6 root.zip in the 1st post works for 2.3.6 build DZKL3? And if I want to try it is it brick proof? The file contains click-to-root.bat, click to unroot, superuser.apk, etc. My phone's firmware is below:

My phone: GT-I9100G

Baseband: I9100GDZKL3

Kernel: 2.6.35.7 se.infra@SEI-43 #2

Build: GINGERBREAD.DZKL3
[Motorola Atrix 2] cogeary:
it's worth a try and it is very unlikely you will brick your phone. However you should check out the Galaxy SII's forums on this web site and find a foolproof guide to rooting it.
[Motorola Atrix 2] motocyndi:
THIS! This is where I somehow got stuck (maybe the reading for hours part). Found the reference to replace.zip and it worked like a charm!
[Motorola Atrix 2] dUdE@home:
Thanks a lot for your reply. I did try, it didn't work, but no harm done to phone. There happens to be no sure guide for rooting my build, I've searched high and low.
[Motorola Atrix 2] timlo1:
Hi, I am a first time android user and I just softbricked my phone following this guide. Don't get me wrong it's a very good tutorial but as the noob I am it wasnt clear that this guide only applies for the MB865 US AT&T version of the phone when it comes to flashing a FXZ.

To make a long story short, I've got the ME865 which i bought in China and have used it for a couple of months. I made a factory reset and wasnt satisfied and therefore turned to this guide. Since I'm a noob I followed this guide blindly but I'm not totally "behind"... I did download a Chinese version FXZ file to flash the phone with. My phone was OTA upgraded to Android 2.3.6 and by following this guide I had to replace some files before I could flash it back to 2.3.5. But here's the problem, these files which is found in the replace.zip is only for the AT&T ROM provided in this turorial. This was not evident by this guide and I realised this when I looked back at it after bricking my phone. As the title says it's a noob guide but it's not a noob-proof one. XDA-developers is one if not THE most respected community in its extent and you can bet your arse there's alot of people reading this guide. Surfing around chinese forums after bricking my device I realised there's chinese people that bricked their phone like me by following this guide. h t t p://bbs.gfan.com/android-3892671-1-1.html

With that said I want to kindly ask you guys if there is a way I can fix this? As of now I'm stuck at the fastboot screen which states Flash Failure. Can use the AT&T rom provided in this guide by changing the radio.img before flashing?, it's one desperate idea I know :P ..

EDIT;

Hi again, I realised that there's a manually way of flashing the phone although a stumbled upon these errors :(

Any ideas? thx in adv :)

here is a pic of the errors in cmd (just fix the spaces in http and you can see):

Quick Question on the FXZ file, Does that contain the bootloader and recovery image? I read this entire post and saw somebody asked a similar question but didn't see a response.

I accidentally ran fastboot flash recovery cwm-recovery.bin when i had my atrix 2 connected to my computer and I thought I was flashing a nexus s.

I'm getting an error that goes into fastboot and says "flash error" is flashing the FXZ going to fix this?

I'M NOT SURE IF YOU CAN USE IT TO FLASH 2.3.5

I WOULD THINK ITS OK.....http://dl.dropbox.com/u/57012903/Inl...PBP_CID285.zip

Here you are, the modified FXZ that will flash you back to 2.3.5 even if you are on 2.3.6 I've used this a ton of times so I can guarantee it works.

Just EXTRACT and point RSD LITE to the XML file inside the extracted folder. Happy flashing :D

I have attached the error can I get a little help?
[Motorola Atrix 2] farshad525hou:
intresting... it saying that /system is RO directory.. but the only way to mount it as an RW is if you have SU accesses. So I'm not quite sure...
[Motorola Atrix 2] b0ngz1ll4:
sadly this is not what I wanted to hear =p

BUT its good to know im not crazy. Anyone have any ideas? REally want to root this mofo, my Captivate wasnt this much of a problem.. QQ
[Motorola Atrix 2] cogeary:
The point of the exploit is to provide you elevated privileges in adb so you can mount /system as RW and push the su and Superuser, so that's why it works.

Hm, that is strange. Could to tell us a bit more information about your A2? System version, Android version, etc?

The first thing you should do is try this zip: View attachment A2Root.zip. It's pretty much the same thing posted in the A2 root thread but it uses a different method to mount /system and if the mount fails it will tell you.

If you still can't get it to work then as a last resort you might want to try flashing the fxz. This will return you back to stock 2.3.5. Normally it will wipe all of your data but you can remove a line in an xml file to make it not wipe data. Once you're back to 2.3.5, you can try to root it again or you can update to 2.3.6 then try to root.

Hello all,

I come before you humbled by my lack of hacking skills lol. I hope I am posting in the right area to get some help. Basically the story is that I successfully rooted my Atrix 2, but installed a ROM I didn't like (I believe it's called "Supercharged"). I've tried to remove it but I'm pretty sure I've done everything wrong. At this point I'd just like to remove the ROM and the root entirely and go back to the factory settings. I read on another forum that removing the Superuser apk would remove the root but of course it didn't. Is there a last resort way I can remove the ROM or will I need to get Superuser back? Any help I can get would be amazing. :D
[Motorola Atrix 2] KEB64:
Did you make a backup of the stock ROM using the same method you used to install the new ROM? If so all you need(ed) to do is a "restore backup" from the menu. Doing this will put you back to a stock, rooted state. If you wanna be unrooted, my guess is the easiest way for you would be to flash the FXZ file to your phone. That will put you back to a factory state.

My advice is to read all you can to fully understand before making any drastic changes to your phone. Then re-read. Then, unless your 100% sure about what to do, post a question here outlining your moves before you make them. There are people here who make drastic changes to their phones everyday. They have become so used to it they might leave out a small detail that they assume YOU will regard as a matter of course. That small detail left un-spoken could be the difference between a successful modification and an all out fail for you. Do yourself a favor and become competent on paper before making any changes to your phone.

If you need further detailed info to get you fixed up, keep asking. Provide more info as to what got you to where you are. Exact steps. Also, give a description of exactly the state of your phone now. I'm not sure from your post what methods you tried to "remove the ROM", what you don't like about Supercharged etc. Details are needed.

The End.
[Motorola Atrix 2] KEB64:
Oh, and no need to apologize for being a "noob". We've all been there! Give us some details, follow (and ask for) instructions to the letter and we'll help you out of any jam around here.

The End.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jdot104:
Thanks so much for the response. I didn't back up the stock ROM completely and by the time I thought to post here I had done a memory wipe anyway. I'm using an Atrix 2 with Gingerbread 2.3.6. This was my first time rooting. I originally wanted to install an ICS-like ROM but I figured I'd test one out first, which is how I got to the Supercharged ROM. I don't think I've tried any "methods" to remove it, just basically tinkered around with files. I don't think I've done anything that will permanently damage the phone, but before I do anything else I do want to make sure I have clear instructions. Thanks again!
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Your best bet would be to go back to the first page of this thread and follow the instructions on how to flash the fxz. Then you will have to get the OTA update to 2.3.6 again, but that is not an issue, it will just pop up and ask you to allow the firmware update, and reboot, after you are back up on 2.3.5 for a few hours.

Few days back I updated the Android to v2.3.6....But after the update the phone cannot detect the cellular network....Now I want to downgrade back to v2.3.5. I have read a few blogs as well..

I have downloaded the FXZ..Now should I replace those few files before flashing the FXZ using RSD Lite?

I have read somewhere that u need to replace those files if u are on AT&T...But since in my case there is nothing like AT&T, should I replace those files in FXZ or not??

99 problems

So, I need some help. I HATE to sound like a n00b but I have no choice and this is for a friend. I now have his ATRIX 2 and he paid someone on ebay to upgrade the androind os to ICS. Well he got it back and it was all screwy, couldnt acces internet and settings and he must have freaked out and went upon himself to put it to stock by going to clockwork and RE-FORMATTING the phone.

So now the only way it turns on is when it is plugged to the charger and the M (motorola dual core screen) comes on and nothing else happens. I cannot get it into a recovery screen or anything.

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!:confused:
