Well mine had 6.7.2 edem blah blah as file name.

This thing starts with 5.5

I'm guessing its GB file you're flashing there.

If you have an Indian mb865 and if you can't find the ics file anywhere else, I could mirror that for you.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Dark_Elf333:
miror pls, or get me a valid link.

can't find anywhere.

hope that this is the problem and not something else...
[Motorola Atrix 2] Lifehacker7:
Okay. I'll mirror it. I need some time though. If anybody else has mirrors, please do post!
[Motorola Atrix 2] Dark_Elf333:
ty, I waiting, hope it will help me
[Motorola Atrix 2] Lifehacker7:
Well i actually figured out what went wrong in that link.

Try http://sbfdownload.droid-developers.org/edison/6.7.2_EDEM-18-SEARET_cfc.xml.zip

This is the same one I use.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Dark_Elf333:
ty!

finaly it is working!

now I Rooted the device again.

but can't find bmm at the playstore to flash the jelly bean as u said

and u said I need some edits?

how exactly Im proceed from here?

can I get other gelly bean rom and just flash it via rsd like i did?

thx again mate :)

Glad it worked! And You can hit the thanks button, that's why it exists ;)

And you can't flash ROMs via RSD. Only via recovery you're supposed to flash.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Dark_Elf333:
mate those guide complitly messed up for me.

it is imposible to understand them.

to the device?

or to the pc?

gues to the device so downloaded to the device and installed.

if on the device, how? which root window?

if on the pc, ok.

where exactly is the "recovery.fstab"?

on pc? on the device? what his location?

will C when I get there.

and then what?

lets say, I changed and opened.

how do I flash?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Lifehacker7:
Obviously on the phone.

You do everything on phone itself.

No pc required here.

You gotta get root browser and go to that directory.

Same answer again. Everything on the phone.

You have to reboot after you completely do all the edits. You'll see green droid guy. Tap on it, set up partition sizes. ( use like 1gb for data, 500 mb for cache and system)

If you decide to run on only one system, no need to do these.

Just double tap on recovery option there, and flash after doing the wipes.

Make sure whichever ROM you download says, to be flashed via bmm.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Dark_Elf333:
ok done all that, now after entered to recovery im following the steps:

1-Wipe data/factory reset

2-Wipe dalvic cache

3-Flash ROM

4-Flash Gapps

5-Reboot

1 and 2, ok done.

3-where can i find the zip file? i hit "install zip from storage" but there is none there, tried diferent options there, but can't find access to microsd(there is my zip rom). how i find it?

and what should i do in step 4? i have no clue
[Motorola Atrix 2] Lifehacker7:
It might have internal storage as Default.

I remember there is an option to switch to external SD somewhere there. Look for it.

And you seem to be totally new to flashing seen!

Well, in many ROMs like CM, PA, AOKP or any CM based ROM, they don't include the Gapps ( gapps=google apps, you know play store, Gmail blah blah).

So you gotta find the right one ( They depend on android version ) from goo.im and flash them right after flashing the ROM.

And btw, can you Temme which ROM you're trying to flash and in which system?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Dark_Elf333:
Im realy new at flashing on android, but have match expirience with nokia so. I understand the need to have a custom rom... espesialy on a phone like atrix 2.

so I need the goms before I flash? cmmon... which gooms I need to download and where to put them? can't i just install them after flash?

for now im just want jelly bean so i go for this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2296293

it seems nice.

didn't understand what do u meen when u say "which system"

currently im on 4.0.4 and i want 4.2.2

am I messing something up?

btw i couldn't find anywhere the sccard :(
[Motorola Atrix 2] Lifehacker7:
You can go without gapps too.

They're obviously needed if you want all the Google services including the play store.

And that's the same ROM I'm running rite now :P

Are you checking it in the app or while you're booting up? I'm sure it's there. I'll go see and tel you where exactly it is.

Edit : go to recovery, say install zip, there you have an option" change zip location" or something like that ( the 4th one). Chose external SD there.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Dark_Elf333:
ok will try again now.

but about the gooms

which gooms i need to download?

and how to install them after flash?

cant i install them after somehow?

i want google play, and push mail
[Motorola Atrix 2] Lifehacker7:
*Gapps.

Get 4.2.2 gapps from

http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip

Or you can use the slim gapps provided in the liquidsmooth thread itself.

Its an extra flash.

Just like you flashed the ROM, you should go again and select install zip then flash Gapps.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Dark_Elf333:
ok id go for yours...

50 minutes to finish download... can't wait already...

btw, if i :

enter recovery ->delete the wipes-> exit(becouse didn't found the access to sdcard

should I do everything from the begining?

root, changes at the bmm?

---------- Post added at 07:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:28 PM ----------

ok start recovery, and again cant find the sdcard.

entered to "change zip location" there i have 6 options:

exernal storage

internal storage

usb otg-1

usb otg-2

usb otg-3

usb otg-4

if i press the "exernal storage" i returned to prev screen and have there:

i hit "install zip from storage" and see a lot of folders but not the zip rom
[Motorola Atrix 2] Dark_Elf333:
finaly!

it works!

TY very much mate!

flash the rom and the gap and all seems to be good right now! :)

I missing the shorcuts though, on the dropdown menue.

can i add them some how?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Lifehacker7:
Settings - interface - notification drawer - there your enable the shortcuts.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Dark_Elf333:
ty, but there isn't multi windows screen like in the S3.

can the atrix 2 use the multi windows?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Lifehacker7:
No. Not yet.

What is the best and most stable rom to flash right now? AT&T atrix 2 3.0.8 kernel
[Motorola Atrix 2] Lifehacker7:
It all depends on your taste. I'd suggest you try and see if you can boot kexec first .

If yes, then you have more ROMs to try out ( like liquidsmooth, avatar etc)

If not you gotta go with non kexec ones. (like PA, PAC, etc )

This brings up a good point....

Yesterday, I went from SCV7 - leak 2 to CM10 and made the stupid mistake of forgetting how to get to CM recovery, thinking I had to reflash the custom bootstrap..oopy doopy...bootloop...

I then successfully was able to RSD back to 2.3.6 using the files from Jim & Altered's newest script download (the script itself didn't work after two tries, so I just used RSD manually and that worked great)... Some significant battery charging and 3-4 hours later and I was back to CM10.

HOWEVER, during all that, something came up that I found weren't really mentioned enough to help those that might not know better.

You have to make sure you have USB drivers loaded on your PC for your phone in order for fastboot or anything to work properly. I know this is mentioned here and there, but it really isn't stressed and documented enough in the various ROM and utility OP's we have out there. If not, you'll hear (at least in Windows) your PC make that 'dun dun' noise that isn't an indication of a successful driver install, and communications with RSD or adb simply won't work. Although you may be able to use your phone (or could use it before you broke it) to transfer files, this does not mean the right drivers are in place to communicate to it.

Hey I am trying to get scv7 on my phone but i have no clue how to put my phone in any mode like bootmenu or do the wipe Dalvik Cache
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
The official ICS OTA will be rolling out soon (they have already released to certain areas) so it should come quickly. There is no "custom" ICS, there are only leaked versions of the update found, and ROMS based off those leaks. Whether you choose to flash a leak is up to you. If you root 2.3.6 you can still get the official ICS OTA when released, it will only break root once installed.

Are you rooted with CWM? BootMenu you'll have to install, but DO NOT keep any of the files belonging to CWM or the Atrix 2 Bootstrap if you've installed those. You'll have to delete all of that. Then, install BootMenu, and follow the instructions on the SCv7 thread.

Please help. Thanks in advance.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Axis_Drummer:
Try using jims scrip through RSD Lite. You have to pull the inline_flashing xml from the folder and place it in RSD.

WHATEVER YOU DO DON'T TRY WITH THE ORIGINAL FXZ. ONLY JIM'S.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jacobwc15:
Alright I'll try that. But there isn't a version for mac, correct? I'll have to wait until I can access a pc. Thanks for the reply!
[Motorola Atrix 2] Axis_Drummer:
I believe Jim's script has commands for windows and Linux. I would assume RSD Lite is for both Mac and PC, but i'd double check just to be on the safe side.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Fall of Enosis:
The script itself is for Windows. But if you extract the xml out of it, you can flash it through rsd lite on your Mac. The script won't work for Mac though.

any chance to have other samsung apps or something?

couple days with liquidsmooth now, working very nicely... 450 of free ram :)

so thx for ur help! i can't find the thx button, wanna give u +1

i have 2 more qustion:

1-I lost the ability to connect to adhock wifi( im trying to connect to n8 wifi teathering, which using adhock method) and the atrix cannot find it.

before the upgrade it connected without problem, what can i do?

2-can u explain a bit the diferences bitwean the roms?

from my expirience(from nokia) every rom had diferent focus, but exept the design(fonts, wallpapers etc...) the main question was:

more battery life, less performance.

less battery life, more performance.

and then every one choose what they need.

biside that, al was pretty match the same:

-same free ram(more or less)

-same removal of anwanted features

-same adding mod/hack stuff

the question is: is it the same at android?

can u give your aspect about the roms u are tried?

what's the best method for backup? I'm currently running stock ics on sys1 and numa on sys3. and want to backup my sys1 in case something goes wrong..

Sent from my MB865
[Motorola Atrix 2] Lifehacker7:
Obviously nandroid backup. It backs up every single bit. But its of huge size ( around 2gb ).

My backup preferences - TiBu for apps and Go backup for contacts + SMS + call logs. It saves me lotta space on my disc!

Samsung stock apps won't run on any other phone or even on the samsung phones itself when they don't have the samsung framework.

Just like you can't run smartactions or any such stock apps now.

I'm not sure as I haven't tried this. But probably wifi tethering is broken on that ROM.

Well that's a big question.

All the Different ROMs have their own set of exclusive features. And with CM being open source, i have seen that many ROMs just include the CM stuff without much of the their own exclusive stuff.

They have all the features that comes from Stock android at that version + they add in some of their own creations ( Like halo, pie controls, different ui modes in PA )

Basically, it's all about the mods that the ROM brings you ( and the newer version of android too ofcourse) and yeah, some ROMs are faster and better performers.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Lifehacker7:
Yeah that's the way you do the backup.

Sure you can transfer the backup files to PC. You just have to put it back in the same folder on sd card when you need it.

Sent from my MB865
[Motorola Atrix 2] Lifehacker7:
You can actually start off by searching.

Bootloader isn't unlockable on our phone. We have kexec to load up custom kernel.

Look in the dev section for recoveries and how to root.

There are 2 recoveries. Bmm and CWM. While flashing ROM, see which recovery the ROM tells you to use.

Obviously you can make backup in recovery ( nandroid ) or use titanium backup.

BMM Internal Storage partition trouble

Hi,

I'm quite new to all of this, but I'm attempting to flash CM10.1 via BMM. I've followed the instructions in the OP post: changed the line in recovery.fstab, created the partitions on System 2, created the partitions in System 3 [system - 500 Mb, cache - 500 Mb, data - 2 GB], wiped the data on both Systems 1 and 3, installed the zip for CM10.1, installed the zip for Gapps.

So far, except for one very important thing, everything is working fine and I can boot into CM10.1. When I get there, however, I attempted to install an app and was told that there was insufficient space. When I checked the storage it's saying that there is 0 internal storage available.

I've tried redoing the partitions, rewiping the data on System 1 to make sure that I had enough space for a partition and then redid the partition again. I'm still having the same problem, though. The result is that I, obviously, can't install anything because there's supposedly no space and every time I boot into System 3 (CM10.1) I have to go through the initial set-up process for the phone.

Has anybody had this problem? Am I, as I suspect, doing something wrong?

Thanks,

Derek
[Motorola Atrix 2] unsivil_audio:
You are and you aren't. The 2GB data partition option doesn't work. Largest you can go is 1GB. Which unfortunately makes all other systems useless to me. You should see a bunch of a lines of text when you create your data partition. I wish you could specify a custom size for the data partition, because I could get away with a 1.5GB one.
[Motorola Atrix 2] deveshmanish:
After creating the partition don't wipe data on system 1 it would just wipe everything.After creating the partition say system 3 just wipe system 3.

And secondly the 2GB doesn't work for now.This is the main reason for you having zero data space for apps n stuff as the 2gb data partition doesn't get created so try creating a smaller one.

May the -Mass times Acceleration-be with You...
[Motorola Atrix 2] tobiascuypers:
Anyone?
[Motorola Atrix 2] deveshmanish:
What recovery??There is already a recovery in CM10.1 just keep tapping the vol down button as soon as you restart(ie as soon as you see the boot logo) until you enter into recovery.The trick is to tap vol down when the led lights up during boot but that's just a matter of seconds.So to make sure you don't miss it just keep tapping vol down as soon as you power up

May the -Mass times Acceleration-be with You...
[Motorola Atrix 2] tobiascuypers:
Yea I got that. But say I want to get rid of CM10.1 do i just flash? But then what is all the stuff about system 2,3,4 ect.? Also, how do I get rid of the stuff from bootstrap so I can use BMM?
[Motorola Atrix 2] unsivil_audio:
Recovery is built into the /system partition of the Rom you are installing in the main system. Therefore, you just flash. CM10.1 recovery will be gone and BMM will be in its place (assuming you are installing a rom with BMM).
[Motorola Atrix 2] derekc06:
Different Problem Now ..... I messed up.

Thanks for the help guys, I didn't realize that the 2 GB partition wasn't working yet. I redid it as 1 GB which was fine but then I obviously ran out of space trying to install my apps and everything and I hadn't thought ahead to put them on the SD Card. So when I went back and tried to do that (rebooted) CM10.1 wouldn't boot. I tried wiping everything and starting over but, in the process, I accidentally did it over System 1 because I'm an idiot. So now, in the system 1 slot, I have CM10.1 which still doesn't boot. I'm not sure where to go from here because I don't want to mess anything up any further. I tried "Reboot to stock recovery" but that didn't work, I just got the dead Android with the red triangle.

Do I need to put a stock ICS rom on my SD Card and put that into System 1? I'm on AT&T, btw...
[Motorola Atrix 2] unsivil_audio:
Time to bust out RSD lite. Because you nuked your system 1, you nuked the Recovery with it. You'll have to start over with official ICS and go from there.

*From whatever recovery you want (CM10/Boostrap/Safestrap)
[Motorola Atrix 2] tobiascuypers:
Sorry for not being clear. I ment for say how do u get rid of the stuff from bootstrap? I heard that I shouldn't flash unless I remove the bootstrap stuff?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Lifehacker7:
The new ROM will take care of that. Cuz the system is wiped and all bootstrap stuff will be gone. If you're gonna install BMM on same ROM where you have bootstrap, then you should remove it. Now you flash from CM recovery, (PAC or PA) they have bmm as recovery. To increase systems, you have to simply create partitions for them in recovery.
[Motorola Atrix 2] tobiascuypers:
Ok thanks you. So basicly I'll be safe if I just wipe and flash ( PAC or PA) from CM recovery?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Lifehacker7:
Yeah ( as devesh said ).

You'll have bmm as recovery after that.
