[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
I am not sure it will work right, the whole thing, is that we are stepping the cdt.bin file and moving forward, without booting, until you are on leak 1 again, and can OTA to leak 2, or the OTA. This is really not an fxz or anything like that, just a way to unbrick those that are softbricked.

We will see if we can add leak 2 into it, but from the looks of it, I think it needs to be done just like you already did it.
[Motorola Atrix 2] A2Trip:
So I have only ran into two problems trying these out for the 10th time starting from step #1. First one is boot.img from 2.3.6 wont flash. I moved forward and each and every single time I get this error while applying the ICS leak #1 update. (see attached) Any help on this would be greatly appreciated...I feel so close to getting out of this soft brick yet so far away lol! :confused:
[Motorola Atrix 2] deveshmanish:
What error did you get while flashing 2.3.6 boot.img??? Assuming you had the proper files and were you following the manual approach or the scripts by alteredlikeness???
[Motorola Atrix 2] A2Trip:
Somthing Invalid with the boot.img but that was in moto-fastboot (cmd) Either way though, I tried both alter's scripts and manually flashing and still cannot get the leak #1 to stick...you mentioned that when the android standing up with open belly and installing somthing. Did you wait and let it boot or did you do a manual pull and reboot to get into recovery...cuz I've let it sit too and it just keeps looping from moto sign to black screen back to moto sign...I'm completely stumped...
[Motorola Atrix 2] deveshmanish:
Well in my case first two steps were sucess.i was able to flash boot.img from 2.3.6.it was after this when i rebooted from motofastboot that i had that problem.

by the way after trying to install leak1 can still boot in the modified bootloader or motorola's bootloader???

have you tried flashing cdt.bin and recovery.img from minimal fxZ?that is what i did when my leak1 install failed and gave me invalid.cg error

---------- Post added at 03:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:47 AM ----------

Just a dumb question but you copied motofastboot files in the extracted 2.3.6 and then tried to flash boot.img by opening a command window there.ryt???
[Motorola Atrix 2] A2Trip:
It worked!!! OMFG! That's what I'm talkin about! So after step #2 (2.3.6 part) and it reboots into recovery with the android guy standing and the blue bar at bottom looks like its installing somthing, I never thought to press volume up and down at same time while this was happening till the last time. When I did do that it showed me what it was doing and was able to choose to reboot, flash update from SD, ect. So I proceeded to apply the ICS leak #1 (this time I hit volume up and down to hide the details as I was tired of seeing a fail.) But FINALLY it booted me into fastboot with the cdt.bin error so I then flashed the cdt.bin and recovery.img in that order from minimal fxz ICS and rebooted through cmd. Booted into recovery, reapplied the ICS leak #1 (hid the details again, lol) and BAM, updated perfectly, booted up fine and I'm back on leak #1 where I'll stay since I know we're safe here to get back...man, no more playing with this phone for me lol. I'm being safe from now on for sure hahaha. Thanks again to the OP, Jim and Alterlikeness! You guys are awesome and man OP 14!? Your smart man and I look forward to seeing you around here for development help! Great work again! Hope this helps anyone else with a softbrick A2! :thumbup:

[Motorola Atrix 2] tvd0405:
The procedure is very similar to Jim's fxz to GB excepting doing recovery twice back to the first leak.
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
I just want to make a comment for all who are in a situation and are forced to use this method... and for others who may be thinking about installing the official final ICS...

If you have ever been on the Final/leak#2/soak ICS, and even if you go through this procedure and return to Leak #1 and stay there (without ota'ing to final ics) - you are still on the Final ICS as far as bootloaders are concerned. So, you may NOT use Jim's script to fxz back to GB 2.3.5/.6 - EVER...

(If you haven't ever installed ICS yet and are still considering it, might be best just to upgrade to leak#1 in the first place, and stay there.. plenty 'o roms and such - I guarantee you will not miss anything by not OTA'ing to final ICS)

Just thought I'd share my thoughts..:p Carry on..
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
+1000

Also you can use my scripts, but you will be soft bricked and have to use this process again, so if that happens to you, follow the OP in this thread, or when the script comes out in the next few days, you can use that to un-softbrick.

So, no worries of a hard-brick from using my scripts and not realizing, or just doing it for fun... LOL
[Motorola Atrix 2] tvd0405:
I successfully got back to ota after a boot loop. I did another step #4 after step #5 due to cdt error.

---------- Post added at 07:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:25 AM ----------

I used your script and OP as reference, swapped in appropriate images. I just want to confirm that this method does bring back leak#1 with new boot loader of course. There were some verifications and patching while recovering that caused cdt errors so it may be difficult to simplify the procedure.

hey

well i have few questions

1.does keep too many apps slows down mobile?(i mean not only backround running process apps )

2.i check i have free ram always but my phone is lagging always , to open apps list it takes so much time , some time it doesnt respond ( dont tell me rom , i have checked almost all roms avaible for s2 )

3.Facebook - my frnd told me that official facebook app sucks and do lots of wakelocks bla bla should i change to alternate app for fb?

please help

thank you
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
1. Yes.

Always install the apps you need. Removing /disabling pre-installed apps you don't need also helps a lot.

2. You need to cache.

- Boot to recovery

- clear cache

- reboot phone

Done.

Also note that your first problem can easily lead to slow loading of apps

3. Your friend is actually right.

The official Facebook app causes heavy battery drain.

Until Facebook releases a revamped app, you will sure be better using a third-party Facebook app.

and

what about widgets? i have around 5 widgets - 1.poweramp 4*2 , flpboard (small) , beautiful superclock 4*2,android assistant 4*1 ,google bar

and almost all my installed apps are in folders in launcher screen , like i got 5 screens and almost all installed apps are in folders cause its easy to open when ever i want , does that also effect performance?

i use apex paid launcher
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
instead of Facebook u can use 'Friendcaster' app from stores, also use 'Gemini app Manager' from stores to monitor ur apps(like auto start on boot etc).

that way u can minimise lot of wakelocks.

As for as widjets like Flpboard etc set there refresh interval to max and see:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paulius7:
No(Folders don't do performance), but widget is cause battery drain :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
5 widgets are small anyways shouldn't affect performance.

To improve performance:

1. Uninstall user apps (the ones you installed) you don't need or use

2. Disable System apps you don't need

Check here for list of apps that can be safely disabled

Note: if you have ROOT access, you can even disable more

3. Clear your cache.

# use the method in my previous post.

You should notice the difference now.

Download the last file (a good place to start). Rename it to just update.zip (I added build numbers to keep them separate). Copy it to your Ext Sd Card.

Boot tablet holding Vol+ then PWR till you see it start to install.

If that one doesn't work, then try the next one with the same procedure. Hopefully one of them may work.

A word to the wise, if you used recovery to take a backup while on ICS, do not try to restore it. You will most likely break your tablet.

Let me start by saying this is my first post and I hope its in the right place. I am a complete Noob to this but will say I love this ROM.

I have two questions,

1) When waking my phone (hitting power button) I get a google search screen instead of my home screen, is there a way to change that to go right to my home screen?

2) Can I USB Tether my phone instead of wireless hot spotting it? I keep trying but cant seem to get past it trying to install Moto cast every time. Wireless hot spotting does work but I would like to get wired tethering working. I have tried to go to storage and turn off auto install which I believe would fix Moto cast trying to install but there is no option that I can find. So basically when I try to check the USB tethering a window pops up on my computer trying to get me to install Moto Cast which already is. I have also tried this with my phones storage mounted and unmounted.

Any help is appreciated, thank you in advance.

Hello,

I'm running Jelly Bean. Most apps are fine. I have the odd lagg if more than 2 or 3 are open but they are normal.

However, I have a consistent lagg no matter how many other apps are running if I click Google Search.

It seems as though the lagg is from loading the cards from Google Now. Does anyone have a method of speeding this up? it's painful. It takes sometimes over 3 seconds to load google search and then the cards pop up. Very slow indeed. Everything else is perfect.

Not convinced about the battery life at the moment but I'm working on it ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Kingo64:
Yeah I seem to have the same problem. For now I have just uninstalled updates for Google Search and then disabled it in the app manager because it was sucking 30% of my battery. It seems it isn't completely ready yet.

You are talking about Google Now I suppose. Yeah that's a battery and ram eater. You should try what Kingo64 said if it's such a pain in the ass. I'm on CM10 and running fine here.

Interesting, so it could be Google Now that is sucking my battery life. I've just flashed Semaphore because I was getting incredibly poor battery life and was told that devil was probably the reason. Ill keep that in mind. I'll see how Semaphore goes then if that's **** too, I might disable Google Now. Alternatively it's back to GB, I don't mind having poor battery life but this was insane. I was getting only a few hours out of my battery.
