Then you're still using stock recovery.

Should only take a few seconds to flash boot.img. Ensure you're admin and using the linked fastboot in the OP.

Just left them in for completeness sake and a way to gauge how many don't read the OP :p

Sneaky, but effective.

I don't understand why so many are having a hard time doing this. Use the attached fastboot, ensure root/admin, go down the line ignoring commands with ! at the end since they don't work for us. They're only there because that's what's normally done & I thought it better to include all the normally done commands in case users upgrade...they'd have a bit more knowledge...

If you guys look in the AOSPizza thread I left a modified fastboot.xml with only boot and devtree on it (stock ATT currently). All you have to do is alter the md5sums to reflect the kernel\devtree combo and you can flash it that way with RSD. On Linux, to get md5sums all you have to do is execute "md5sum /path/to/file" and copy/paste the output directly over the existing.

[Motorola Atrix HD] skeevydude:
That really doesn't make sense. I assume you were using SS before, so was MR on a rom slot? If so, that's why. If not, ???

Unsure. Provided you used Epinter's CWM it should be installed according to your output. Myself, I double flash devtree, bootloader, and recovery. Probably not necessary, but the flashes have never failed that way for me.

Just wanted to thank skeevy man you actually try to help people with obviously dumb questions that ciuldve been solved by reading the damn original post. I don't have that kind of patience..lol but anyway thanks for your work bro its seriously appreciated
[Motorola Atrix HD] skeevydude:
I'm used to it...Patience is usually one of my greater virtues...well, the first two weeks anyways. I might flame after that, depends if they speak English or not -- I cut slack to non English users*.

Hardly anyone reads the OP...makes me wish the OP was on all thread pages so there wouldn't be an excuse not to see it.

Its also why I'm a RC -- Someone has to be tech support :cyclops:

*Ever play a video game not in your native language...I imagine that reading faqs in English is similar to that. You can get a gist of what's going on but never be 100% certain. That's also why I don't contact mods over a post not in English -- I'd rather translate it and help while saying "please attempt it in broken\translated English then post correctly in your native tongue". If they do that, then no reason to contact a mod. Plus, if your English is that bad, you probably couldn't read the ToS to know better.

rom flashing

bootloader unlocked cmw installed now could i flash any rom over my stock rom i tired it but no results
[Motorola Atrix HD] skeevydude:
Most of the Roms here are for safestrap systems. You have to manually mount /system in CWM's mount options.

I'm on stock. Can I install cm10 through photon q cwm from ROM manager without a PC? Like all through cwm recovery? If so what precautions should I heed and can I root with the .zips in the op without a adb/PC.
[Motorola Atrix HD] skeevydude:
Yes, Yes, CM10 might be buggy so that's the precaution you should heed, and Yes.

Tried OP instructions several times...now in sticky bit factory_fastboot. Tried reflashing stock but fails at 17/21. Any ideas?
[Motorola Atrix HD] TTLayland:
It never locates the recovery image. It just won't.
[Motorola Atrix HD] EcHoFiiVe:
Make sure its in the same folder as your fast boot files and just do fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img
[Motorola Atrix HD] tvd0405:
You need to rename the install_recovery.sh to something else
[Motorola Atrix HD] Jackblack296:
I tried that and so far it worked. Thanks! But every time I start the device it boots into fastboot with the reason: sticky_bit_fastboot. Only by choosing "factory" in the boot menu (where you can also boot into recovery) I get into the Mexican retail, which i flashed and in there I have some problems with the battery indication. RSD lite stucks and can't finish and also flashing a ZIP like CM10 via CWM leads to stucking at the CM-logo with a blinking red LED-.-

Something corrupted my system section because I also cannot format or delete the section to start clean again-.-

I hope this is still the correct thread, I would be thankful for help, because I cannot use my AHD like that. I'm afraid that I already bricked it:(
[Motorola Atrix HD] skeevydude:
Chances are you're a windows user. Put everything in the same directory and try again. You don't have to on Linux :p

Flash\reflash boot.img to fix the fastboot sticky error. That's what I found in a quick search anyways.

We're you a Bravo user? Your user name seems familiar.

I never had to, I just let CWM do it for me. Just have to do it directly after flashing. Just reboot from fastboot and hold "Volume UP" after flashing then exit CWM (it'll prompt you to fix it). That's all I did and it works just fine. I did rename it the first time I flashed CWM right after the bootloader unlock exploit -- haven't renamed it since and I've flashed /system about 6 times now. I do it the way I just mentioned.

Flash\reflash boot.img to fix the fastboot sticky error. That's what I found in a quick search anyways. (Yep c\p the same answer; lazy ass :rolleyes:)

This isn't really said that much, but use USB ports on back of your PC that are directly connected to the motherboard. USB ports on card readers, front side USB ports, and similarly placed ports can screw with flashing. Also use the thickest most bad ass USB cable you have that'll fit the phone. My Bravo's USB cable is twice as thick as the one that came with the Atrix HD, so that's the one I use.

Can't commend on your RSD problems. I don't run Windows so I can't run RSD. But I will ask if you modified the xml before flashing. Something about deleting the get-var lines. Not 100% on that and just answering what I can off the top of my head. The answer's in these forums (where I read it once).

I installed open SUSE 12.3 KDE a few hours ago and its taking all my time. I can't get Neflix to work (everything works except the videos)....other than that its been rock solid and a good Linux experience. I just hope Java6 isn't going to be a pain.

[Motorola Atrix HD] adelsalem:
Replace the zips current boot.img and device_tree.bin from the fastboot of your choice

do you mean replace the ones in the zip lets say with my stock rom image????
[Motorola Atrix HD] skeevydude:
Yes, but only for kernel and devtree.
[Motorola Atrix HD] Parham112:
I still can't get it to work. I tried renaming the file to recovery.img. I tried re-downloading it and still got nothing. I don't know what I've done wrong, but it just will not load the recovery image. I'm getting frustrated. :(
[Motorola Atrix HD] skeevydude:
Are you on Windows 8 by any chance? I've seen a few posts where users had full adb\fastboot with Win7 and can't get it to work with Win8.

When the phone is booted, does the command "adb devices" detect your phone and does "fastboot devices" detect your phone in fastboot mode? If not, it could just mean you need to reinstall your drivers.

I've only installed the Motorola Drivers on an "obtained" copy of XP to RSD my Bravo a two years ago (didn't know about sbf_flash...)...the search bar or someone else is gonna have to help you on the driver issue. Unless I "obtain" a copy of Win8 or Win7 I won't be much help for Windows related problems. Best I can do is search and post what I find.

There's always Linux...that I can help you with.
[Motorola Atrix HD] calmbuddha:
getting frustrated

tried every thing.

Unable to rename install.sh to install.sh.bak

the file explorers show an error message.

using ubuntu 13.04

tried to enter fastboot. got there, but not able to flash rom. Able to restore backup with CWM (photon Q) . but this CWM wont flash custom ROM.

Unable to flash epinters CWM due to inability to change file name (I think).

Also, after I enter fastboot and type the erase recovery command in the terminal, I am stuck at waiting for device.

Pls help.
[Motorola Atrix HD] skeevydude:
Its posted to rename "install-recovery.sh" to "install-recovery.sh.bak" but I never did. Epinter's CWM will do it for you automatically the first time you try to exit it. I suppose its a safety catch for when you install a stock rom.

Made Epinter's CWM into a flashable zip, in the OP.

Not sure if it'll work with SafeStrap, but it is CWM compatible. If you have to, install CMW the Photon Q way (with Rom Toolbox) then flash this with that.
[Motorola Atrix HD] calmbuddha:
ok, done, flashed epinters with the photon Q CWM, but when I boot into recovery it still shows CWM v 6.0.1.3

Is it epinters or the old photon CWM , will it work? how am I sure that I am using the right recovery?

Tried to flash CM 10.1 - did not work.

Will sit in a corner and cry now.

PS: skeevey - you are really helpful btw, have been reading a lot of your posts.
[Motorola Atrix HD] skeevydude:
Its Epinter's. The same one linked in my thread and his.

There's also an app in Play Store that can flash recovery images. Not sure of its name, but I saw it once doing a search for "partition table".
[Motorola Atrix HD] Parham112:
I flashed it this way and got it to work! Thanks man!
[Motorola Atrix HD] calmbuddha:
ok, thanks, looks like I have CWM working now. but the problem still persists with flashing epinters CM 10.1. it gives me a status 7 error. this happened after i formatted the phone and attempted to flash CM 10.1 - says something like assert failed.

really puzzled as to what is going on.

Thanks.
[Motorola Atrix HD] skeevydude:
Ya got two choices

Remove this from the updater-script (at the very top, can't miss it.)

assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "xt925" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "xt925" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "xt926" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "xt926" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "xt926dev" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "xt926dev" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "xt926vzw" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "xt926vzw" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "xt907" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "xt907" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "vanquish_u" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "vanquish_u" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "vanquish" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "vanquish" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "scorpion_mini" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "scorpion_mini");

Or Format /system then flash CM10.1 (what I did).

flash after format/system did not work. will try editing the file

---------- Post added 23rd April 2013 at 12:09 AM ---------- Previous post was 22nd April 2013 at 11:39 PM ----------

When I unzipped the recovery zip (the file you uploaded) I found that the assert code has already been removed.

the code now starts with ui print etc blah blah....

so nothing really to delete.

i tried system format and flash as well

no luck

am I doing this right?

Do you have a barebones dumbed down instruction? I know you have been very patient. thanks for all the help.

Noob question, per the OP, do I need to install stock fastboot JB, what is its purpose ?

That is one thing I have not done

---------- Post added at 12:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:09 AM ----------

ok, finally

I tried this

wipe factory data

format system

mount system

flash ROM

this worked for epinters but not for PAC ROM
[Motorola Atrix HD] Byakko Custom:
Didn't you wipe the cache and Dalvik cache after?
[Motorola Atrix HD] calmbuddha:
yes, i did.
[Motorola Atrix HD] skeevydude:
I meant the asset lines in the rom's updater script. That's probably why PAC won't flash as well..
[Motorola Atrix HD] AzraelsVoice:
Deleted because I'm an idiot
[Motorola Atrix HD] calmbuddha:
Yes, I figured that out. Was able to flash 4/22 version of epinters CM 10.1. but tried a whole lot of things to get PAC to flash, but no luck.

deleted the assert lines, substituted with epinters lines from CM10.1, and also tried switching the whole file, The damn thing refuses to flash.

Am I ziping it wrong after making the file changes>?

messed up my motorola atrix hd pretty bad, pls help me!!!!

1. rooted it & boot unlocked it & installed safe strap recovey via apk file no problem all working good. 2. downloaded a cust rom to put on it, 3. went into safe strap & created new rom slot but i wanted most space for apps n such so i went with a 3g but it didn't have enough space so i wiped n deleted stock rom on stock rom slot, had made a back up but i thought it was on sd but it was on internal memory so when i wiped stock rom slot i guess i wiped n formated everything. 4. i was able to install a custom on rom slot 1 i created with space after deleting stock rom & it booted up & work fine but it wouldn't find sd card storage so the camera wouldn't work. 4. i deleted that rom & put on at&t mexico retail rom but wouldn't get 4g so it had to go & then i installed bell untested rom it worked but i figured i would just go back to stock. 5. I downloaded stock att jb 4.1.1 rom uninstalled safe strap recovery but i did so with out first deleting rom slot 1 so i guess that created a memory problem & after i uninstalled safe strap & removed apk app. I rebooted phone but it just stayed stuck on boot unloader screen, im guessing because i deleted stock rom & all info. 6. got phone into fast boot mode by powering off & holding vol up & down/press power key selected fast boot was able to use abd to flash cwm recovery imgage onto phone, but i couldn't use fastboot abd mode to flash a stock att 4.1.1 rom it just failed, 7. even tryed using rsd lite tool but that failed too, its weired that i was able to flash cwm onto phone but not stock rom. 8. I booted into cwm by powering off & hold vol keys & pwr key again selected recovery & it loaded into cwm. 9. so i tryed to flash a zip rom thru flash from sd but it didn't show up, it only showed safestrap recovery & twpr or something like that so i thought maybe it was a memory issue so i used cwm to wipe, erase & format system, rebooted into cwm & now it was gone but still couldn't find zip from sd but i did find it under external sd, kinda weird? 10. so i flash zip rom by finding zip file under external sd but after i rebooted it stayed @ boot unlocker screen. 11. tryed flashing stock rom some more by using rsd lite & myth tools but keeps on failing. 12. even went as far as trying to selecting the factory setting things by using vol & pwr keys. 13. read a lot of info where it said to delete 2 files from xml unter stock zip rom after its extracted. 14. if i plug phone into usb on computer it attempts to install drivers but fails & it also makes ding thingy sound when pluged in & unpluged, 15. its like phone is not reading or responding, idk lol under devices its listed as usb input device when plugged in?, i think i trashed this pretty bad u think theres any hope or am i screwed sideways with no lube lol!!! =( I think this explains all in a nut shell, u can call me if thats better or instant or video message lol. ty ron. :crying:

Well your first problem was using safestrap with an unlocked bootloader. And when you uninstalled safestrap you probably didn't delete the rom slot. So reinstall it and delete the slot and you'll have your space back.

Sent from my PACMAN MATRIX HD MAXX
[Motorola Atrix HD] skeevydude:
To add to deeje00, since you don't sound like you've done very much or have much installed, just flash a fastboot with RSD...or just format your internal SD...either should work. I don't have very much SafeStrap experience. I only used it for about 2 weeks cause the bootloader was unlocked soon after that. BL unlocking also made me stop dead in my tracks with an Xperia Z port I was working on -- I've deleted it since then to free up the space so don't anyone ask.

I'm one of the lucky ones. Within the month of getting my AHD the bootloader was unlocked so I didn't have a chance to get used to doing things the locked down way.
