[Motorola Atrix 2] Daiskei:
So, just curious... are we screwed when the official ICS update comes out? I mean, I installed this on my man's phone last night and it is working great but I'm sure the final one is gonna have tons of fixes for various things... Wouldn't we be able to install bootstrap and flash a new official custom ICS rom when they come out? I've already rooted his phone on ICS. I'm just worried he's gonna end up mad with me now. Lol!
[Motorola Atrix 2] big ach:
I'm confused as to why this would work fine for some people and hard brick others? The Fxz worked totally fine for me!
[Motorola Atrix 2] A2Trip:
I think when the devs find a way to get back to 2.3.5, 2.36 then we'll be able to take the OTA. No cheesecake support and cannot check for system updates. I'm sure these devs will figure it out for us...They're smart.

Sent From My DROID That DOES. Not Your APPLE That DIDN'T.
[Motorola Atrix 2] A2Trip:
I think they're talkin about goin back to 2.3.5 or 2.3.6 from the ICS leak. Many have bricked I guess in doing so. So beware lol. If you on the leak, stay put.

[Motorola Atrix 2] Zoide_:
That's strange. I installed the ICS leak and I can go to Settings -> About phone -> System updates just fine. It says "Checking for available update" for a while and then it says "Your device is up to date! No update is necessary at this time."

I guess it's possible that once the official ICS OTA comes out my phone will be able to detect it but the installation will fail.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jfrank1485:
This isn't necessarily mean that you can update, the update server can be another one that ota production server.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Zoide_:
Since we have root access on the ICS leak, perhaps this is something we could alter?
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
No, checking for the update is not the issue... it is the check that runs before anything installs, and it checks the signatures of apps on the phone, including bloatware. If the signatures don't match it won't install. I am 100% sure that ALL of the signatures will be for 2.3.6 apps, so the patches won't 1) apply, and 2) Actually work on the ICS files we have installed.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Daiskei:
Any fix in sight Jim?
[Motorola Atrix 2] :
I hard bricked mine this morning like a idiot. I was using setcpu and i set it on boot. The phone would not come out of the att screen for nothing after i rebooted. I tried to fzx back and mine did not work. I called the number Jim posted, played dumb and I'll have a replacement in two days. I talked sweet nothings to the operator and she waived the two day priority shipping. Just a note for everyone be careful messing around with this leak.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jfrank1485:
What did you do with SetCpu I underclock the cpu to 1ghz and set on boot and it works fine, can you tell us please what was the change you did with SetCpu?
[Motorola Atrix 2] :
That's what i did and it would not boot. Then i tried a factory reset in recovery. Nothing.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Daiskei:
It wasn't SetCPU, it was that he FXZ'd back after SetCPU didn't work for him.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jfrank1485:
That's strange because it work for me
[Motorola Atrix 2] :
When the phone would not boot past the att screen after twenty minutes of idle, i had no choice but to try fzx.
[Motorola Atrix 2] GaganPla:
just wanna know which version of rom fxz where u trying to flash .... 2.3.5 or 2.3.6 ? nd what exactly happend did process just stoped or showed error on specific process.....since i have indian phone not att here so would not be possible to ask for replacement here
[Motorola Atrix 2] cornflaku:
So when the official OTA comes out, this kernel won't match and we won't be able to install anything, even custom roms created with the OTA update?
[Motorola Atrix 2] :
2.3.5, stopped on 5/18 bootloader. Just don't try it. I thought i might get lucky but i didn't. It doesn't work.
[Motorola Atrix 2] GaganPla:
sorry 4 ur brick nd thanks 4 the warning man .....i was also thinking of fxz back to 2.3.6 than ics again since i lost webtop feature cause i deleted some bloatware
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Well, I too am one of the unfortunate souls that hard bricked during what will probably be remembered as the "Great Leak of 2012". We lost many men during this frantic and furious flood. And, we are not yet certain about the fates of those that chose to run the risk, and jumped into the ICS leak waters with out a life-preserver, or a definite way back.

I hate to say it, but we have only ourselves to blame for the mess we are in (and Motorola's bootlock & key, of course.. oh, and include AT&T with Moto for lagging on the OTA updates which makes us more antsy to get our hands on it). But, we chose to put this leak on our phones. We all should realize the risk we are running when using non-confirmed, non-finalized, dev-only firmware.

I personally was trying to experiment with some things while on the ICS leak (for the sake of the community, I suppose), and something went wrong - terribly wrong. I had no choice but to attempt to fxz back to 2.3.5 with the replaced 4.0.4 files - and RSD got stuck and failed at step 5 (like most others here). And, that's it. Dead weight now.

For those of us lucky enough to be able to get a replacement (mine should be here tomorrow), we will press on, against all odds and warranties... but, hopefully with lessons learned.

For those who can not get replacements, we are truly sorry for your loss, but let this be a harsh lesson on the dangers of rooting and changing system files - you were always warned..

For those floating out there on 4.0.4, I have faith and trust that the devs here will have a fix, or a "good-enough-for-me-for-the-rest-of-my-contract" solution...

Good luck to all, and godspeed to the devs!
[Motorola Atrix 2] girishvk:
i dont think this leak is compitable with Indian A2 (stock searet). There are other MEARET ICS leaks which can be installed on Indian A2.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Well said!

Thank you!

I would give you a thanks, but I have used my 8 here and 8 on my phone in the last 24 hours... :D
[Motorola Atrix 2] JetSurly:
Side Question

Since i dont want to get my rear handed to me in another thread, here goes nothing:

I flashed the leak. Prior to doing so I was rooted on gb 2.3.6. I fxz'd back to 2.3.5, lost root and OTA up to 2.3.6. I just installed this leak yesterday and love it.

My phone is used mainly on wifi only and also use a lapdock. I got this from a guy on craigslist who used it as his main device. Regardless, its mine now.

Here is my question:

If i were to attempt to fxz back to stock using the .bat that someone else created in another thread and i get bricked. Will motorola replace my device? i have warranty until 01/2013.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jfrank1485:
Did you read something from previous post??
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
:D I thought it needed to be said...

And, don't sweat the thanks, been up to 16 myself... plus, I owe you a lot of thanks... and so does everyone else for that matter.

It's been a wild ride. But, I think I'm gonna take it a bit slower if/when my replacement arrives. I'm sorry to say that I will not be jumping back into the treacherous water that is the ICS leak... I'd rather just wait for the official OTA next month (that's my guess anyway), and I'll be working in the background in the meantime. I got my ICS system/data dump and cwm backup to tear open and play with, and we should have a handle on the whole A2 ICS thing by then..
[Motorola Atrix 2] JetSurly:
I dont understand what you are asking? Which post are you referring to?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Fall of Enosis:
since we are on the subject of warranty, I have a hardware issue with my accelerometer, but my screen is cracked.

when I walked in the lady told me they would not warranty it due to the screen.

if I call do you think they will?
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Not unless you have the AT&T insurance, it is like 5 bucks a month and well worth it, for accidental damage like droppage or falling into a toilette.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Fall of Enosis:
Hmm.. just to be clear though, I'm not wondering if they'll fix the screen I am wondering if I call motorola if they will replace my phone because of the accelerometer hardware issue. If I call threm, how would they know the screen was broken. I just need my accelerometer working properly. Although like I said it's a hardware issue.

Cause the acceleromter was acting up before I cracked the screen.

So do you think they'll replace it for the hardware issue? Even with the broken screen?
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
If the screen is cracked you will be otta luck especially with MOTO... you can try the AT&T number, but once you send in a damaged phone, they will charge you 300 bucks.
[Motorola Atrix 2] rdavisct:
for me i just went to a retailer and they sent me to this building with another at&t store but called service center or something and it only took 5 minutes to replace it. and since i bricked it again as soon as i got home :silly: i headed back for another one lol.

i think i woulda gone crazy had i waited three days for a replacement only to brick it and send right back. thank god for this warranty/service center location here in west palm beach,fl

so maybe before u go ahead and call ,goto a retailer and see if theres a service center near buy so you dont have to wait for it in the mail.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Fall of Enosis:
Or, i replace the screen, (again, damn dog) for thirty bucks, and then send it in. 30 bucks is better than 300.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Yeah I have one close by too, and I did my very first replacement there, but I always have to wait forever when I go there. There are always a bunch of people in line that left in the sun all day or, dropped it in the toilette, or are trying to pull one over. The day I was there was a guy that put some dummy phone guts into several real phone cases and tried to get them to give him some "real" replacements... I think they called the cops as I left with my replacement, so... I never went back there after that last time, it is not in the best part of town.
[Motorola Atrix 2] hankbizzo5:
Did not read all the posts but does the few seconds in the microwave method still work for warranty?????
[Motorola Atrix 2] farshad525hou:
For now I'm completely content with the ICS leak. So for now I'm not modding my phone at all to prevent any risk of a brick. If and when we get a fix for this I'll be happily modding again :).

Quick question though; Say within a month we get the official OTA from Moto and AT&T. If someone posts the OTA online, couldn't we just flash it through stock recovery AFTER removing bootstrap (I remember there was a way that I used back when I was trying safestrap) and unfreezing any bloatware (I only froze not uninstalled)?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Jimmy273:
No that won't be possible because the update will check for the stock 2.3.6 app signatures. Well it probably will anyway.
[Motorola Atrix 2] :
Well said. We can cry together until our replacements arrive.;):)
[Motorola Atrix 2] souljaboy:
just keep trying... i was also thinking i messed it up, just dont choose an action when you connect and open your lapdock without it..

Also, battery life is a dream for me, not sure what you did.
[Motorola Atrix 2] farshad525hou:
True... Seriously f*** Motorola, they lag on giving us OTA's and won't let us do it ourselves! And when we finally get a leak they remove our ability to fkz to stock. Never buying a product even remotely associated with Motorola ever AGAIN!

____________________________________________________________________________________________________

Ok now that I'm done ranting, I guess a CWM flashable zip of the final OTA is the only way we get out....
[Motorola Atrix 2] dudemaaan:
just underclock with something like setcpu
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
:crying: :silly: Haha... I'm over it. I figure that they owe me anyway... Been with at&t for 10-odd years now. I am rocking my wife's old Sammy Solstice for the time being.. blast from the not-so-distant past :cool:

Looks like the carriers have a lot more sway in what the OEM's do with their bootloaders - even one of the SGSIII's is now officially locked down, due to the power of Verizon and sales. Here's an interesting article about it and bootloaders in general: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/what-is-unlocked-and-how-does-this-affect-verizons-sgs3/

I have a little time now to stop and smell the roses instead of checking my phone...:D

EDIT: Just checked my email and I swear I heard a heavenly "ahhhh" sound play...
[Motorola Atrix 2] kirkgbr:
Wow, that is strange. Why would Samsung lock their bootloaders for Verizon but not other carriers?

I got three words for you... $ $ $

...or cha ch ing

[Motorola Atrix 2] Deggy:
OG Atrix user here. If you flash a leak, stick with it. There's no turning back! Until your developers can figure out to flash ICS without messing with boot images and what not, hold off. We lost a lot of OG Atrixes with the latest update by returning to stock via SBF or RSDing.
[Motorola Atrix 2] :
I just tracked my replacement through fed ex and it looks like my phone will be here in the morning. Less than 40 miles away so I'm feeling a little better about this brick situation. Once it's here I'm going to hold off on the leaks because I'm afraid the replacement will be more locked down than my first a2. I'm not trusting moto or att for ****.
[Motorola Atrix 2] PhoenixNghi:
DEVs, please don't leave us stuck with this bull**** leak, huhuhu T^T
[Motorola Atrix 2] vinamilk:
When ATT decides changing new phone for you, did they ask anything about contract and your name must be listed on this ? Or they just changed new one without any condition ?
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Mine's already in the city... I can feel it's presence and i'm trying to mentally connect with it - yup, it's somewhere dark... it's in a box... but, it's moving... it's on a truck!...

Yes, they ask for your personal information so that they can confirm that you are a customer. They won't give non-customers replacements.. And, Motorola only tells you to send it in for repair...

Let's put it this way, I was on the phone with Moto for almost 2 hours and they only offered me to send it in for repair (or, call my carrier and see what they can do). And, I was on the phone with AT&T for 5 minutes total, and they offered me a replacement within 3 minutes, before I could even ask for one...
[Motorola Atrix 2] vinamilk:
So sad to hear this, I bought it as unlocked grey item, maybe it still in AT&T's contract warranty but I don't know which way it came to me.

So be patient and wait for JTAG for it, if can. A lot of OG Atrix can be saved by this way.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Ravikirancg:
No idea why exactly your phones get bricked.. but no issues like this on searet and mearet leakes.. i have flashed back to 2.3.6 from the ics leaks quite a lot of times using rsdlite..
[Motorola Atrix 2] Fall of Enosis:
Bump. This needs to be up top i think...
[Motorola Atrix 2] Novaa:
Those of us on the ICS leak will still be able to flash custom roms when they start coming out though right? ICS is pretty awesome as it is, but running the modded ICS rom on my transformer has really made me notice how the A2's hardware has aged and how it could benefit from some supercharging :)

Og user here-when i hardbricked my og atrix, atnt ment me a new one but new one only had one problem........ which was oem bootloader unlock not implanted in other works its also impossible to unlock bootloader on new og atrix's to. So i ended up trading my atrix for mytouch 4g slide then the mytouch 4g slide for a atrix that had unlockable bootloader. now im scared to install a ics leak if we ever get one lol but the new moto widget is awsome

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gedster314:
Sprint's 3G is horrible. Up until 2 years ago, I was regularly getting about 1Mbps, good for CDMA. At $30/month on Sero, I was happy. Then it started slowing down. When I finally left I was regularly getting < 100Kbps and to top it off I was paying $50/month because I had an E4gT.

I am now on prepaid paying $50/month, getting 4-8 Mbps and happy.

Well now that we are all comfy with our new ICS phones, let's talk launchers.

While I kinda liked blur home from 2.3.6, I am not super pleased with ICS' home.

But fear not, Check out apex launcher! IMO it's a lot like LauncherPro but for ICS, You get the scrolling dock (I've always loved that), sweet window transitions, and scrollable widget support (a must for me). Also for root users (and which of us aren't rooted? lol), you can drag and drop widgets on and off of your homescreen. Not to mention have them overlap if necessary.

I'm loving it! Find it in the play store:HERE.

Do any of you guys have problems with launchers affecting your battery?
