hi

im on AT&T 4.1.83 , can i directly flash the 4.5.91 sbf over it?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Haphim:
SBF flashes are risky. I recommend doing the OTA update, which will resize the partitions (that's a good thing). If you want to unlock your bootloader, you'll be RSD flashing an unlocker sbf, RomRacer's CWM recovery, and applying the 2.3.4 Fruitcake build. After that, rooting is a breeze, and you'll be good to go.

Hey

Hey Guys, i am new at atrix..

i have messed up my phone :(

Now it doesn't boot rather than Shows

Will this flash work for me?? I Need your Help Please!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mtayyab96:
And one thing more it is not charging Now, whenever i connect my Phone with Charger

i can show Motrolla (Red Logo) with The text

Any one i need urgent help Please guys Com'on Please :(
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
How did you mess up your phone? Doing what? Have you previously unlocked your bootloader on 2.3.4, b/c if you have, flashing a earlier sbf version with brick your phone.

Are you on a international build or U.S.?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mtayyab96:
My Phone is on AT&T and sim unlocked. Actually, i have just got it from my Cousin from USA. He has already installed a Custom firmware on it Named Ginger blur. What i did? i just installed THeDark_side wipe over it using CWM and it didn't boot up again :(
[Atrix 4G Android Development] plaster:
You need to go into CWM and wipe cache and under advanced wipe Dalvik cache then reinstall the dark side rom.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mtayyab96:
How can i go to CWM mode?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
If he got the phone with gingerblur on it, he is probably on 1.8.3 (or earlier) still and does not have a unlocked bootloader. He tried to flash a ROM with 1) A phone without a unlocked bootloader, most likely and 2) Not on 2.3.4.

Really need to know which firmware version you where on; i.e. 1.8.3 or 4.5.91. If you had not yet had gingerbread (Android 2.3.4 / firmware 4.5.91) you could simply flash a earlier sbf. humm... since you weren't unlocked anyway (I hope) even if you were on 2.3.4, I guess you could still flash a earlier version sbf via RSD Lite (just so long as your boot loader was not unlocked).

If your confident that your bootloader was NOT unlocked, I would try flashing 1.8.3 sbf via RSD Lite. Instructions should be in the OP. I have instructions in the OP of my N00B guide as well.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mtayyab96:
Thanks you so much for your support. My Phone was locked,i made a silly mistake :/

But now there are two things.. What do you mean by the earlier version does it mean 1.2.6 in the first post sir? or should i download the 1.5.2

And second thing is my Phone is dead now, When i Plugged charger in it, it turns ON but again show those error and battery doesn't charge and Phone becomes too much hot that i can't even touch it but if i use PC to charge, it again doesn't charge for first 20 mins.. Green light remains ON but after that every thing switch OFF...

You're great man! i am waiting for your kind reply!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mtayyab96:
And the OS version was 2.2.2
[Atrix 4G Android Development] plaster:
Didn't even think about that. Don't all the 3rd party ROMs have Unlocked bootloader as a prerequisite? That's what I get for assuming he rtfm. Lol
[Atrix 4G Android Development] plaster:
You were on 1.8.3
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Flash 1.5.7 with RSD Lite. The sbf file can be found in the sbf super thread at the top if the dev. Section. Install instructions can be found there to I think?? Or I have install instructions in my N00B guide @ the top of the general section.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mtayyab96:
Thanks for support

Sir you didn't tell me about battery problem that is currently the major problem for me :( I need help on it how can I charge now???
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
External battery charger, new battery??? not really sure... sorry
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mtayyab96:
Sir do I need a special kind of external charger for that? Or an ordinary will help out? Now i am asking this because it owns a heavy battery

[Atrix 4G Android Development] EclipseX:

[Atrix 4G Android Development] mtayyab96:
i have done everything now on Official Gingerbread 2.3.4 will look forward to unlock the bootloader :)

Regards
[Atrix 4G Android Development] drkcobra:
Solving your problem starts with using the correct version of RSD Lite. You must use at least version 5.3.1 for the Atrix. That is why that version was first released. However version 5.4.4 is now available as I posted around this last weekend. You also want to make sure and use the latest drivers v5.2.0.

Here is 5.3.1:

http://www.mediafire.com/file/zz81vf1o2y73d4n/RSDLite5.3.1.msi

But I would recommend just going straight to 5.4.4. See this post of mine:

and my cell phone shows that the battery is too low to flash but I pluged my cellphone into charger more than 5 hours

[Atrix 4G Android Development] drkcobra:
You need to troubleshoot your own system, the installers work fine. I hope you are using an XP system otherwise who knows. As far as your battery problem goes, it doesn't matter how long it is plugged in if you are stuck at bootloader, the charger is controller by the firmware! You will have to charge you battery in another phone or get one to use that is fully charged!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Messi 10:
I will return it to Motorola !
[Atrix 4G Android Development] gharris040604:
Ok I'm purchasing an atrix today for cheap, problem is he didn't charge it before he tried to root it and it died during the process, will a sbf restore it or is it unrepairable
[Atrix 4G Android Development] drkcobra:
That should do it for you just fine. You will need to have a charged battery or another Atrix to charge yours in however...

At least RSD Lite checks for that and won't let you start unless it is charged. Kind of a necessity when you have firmware files that are 1.5GB!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] z0bug33:
can i flash this if I have an unlocked bootloader?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nimixes:
corrupt!?!?

hello noob here, i am softbricked after trying to install a theme by shady, anyways i had cm7 now im bricked and im trying this method after trying a few other things. anyways i downloaded the atrix.7z and now im getting that its corrupt when i try and extract it, am i not supposed to? :confused: man this has been a nightmare!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mikecarlone:
hier somewhere i read, you must put the sbf file in the c:/temp folder and rename the sbf file with a short name, i.e.: aaa.sbf

the you have success, and not forgetten you must also drag and drop this file to the rst lite
[Atrix 4G Android Development] drkcobra:
No you can have the sbf file wherever you want. The problem is very very simple.

RSD Lite 5.3.1 was the earliest version that supported the Atrix. Using anything earlier (like 5.0...) will NOT work. The best bet is to go straight to 5.4.4 or 5.5.

I've been having some issues with the screen and not sure what's causing it, so I'm trying to eliminate software as the culprit. I'd like to flash back to stock with an SBF, but want to get advice on if it's safe.

I'm currently unlocked, unrooted, and running the Fruitcake 2.3.4 HKTW - system ver. 45.3.0

If I flash the sbf in rsd, should it be ok?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Just fruitcake it

Hello, I need a little help. I believe I messed up my phone flashing a bunch of stuff trying to get the webtop to work. Now the HDMI port does not even work, the HDMI manager will not pop up when I plug in the cable. I have the same problem as this guy basically http://www.atrixforums.com/forum/be...ne-wrong-bell-hdmi-t-methods-broken-hdmi.html

Anyways Ive been doing research and it seems like using a SBF will help me revert back to its original untampered settings. Would this Guide here help me solve my problem?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
You can just wipe all data, cache, system, and webtop using fastboot then flash any rom u want. Don't have to sbf unless you just like stock.

Edit: unless the reason is u want webtop.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Try a fastboot factory wipe: fastboot -w

or

Try installing pudding sbf to unlock bootloader -> see pudding thread.

or

Flash the correct sbf via steps in this thread. You need to make sure RSD Lite and the current Attic drivers are installed on tour comptuer. See my N00B guide for some further and other helpful info on sbf flashing.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sal87:
I downloaded the correct drivers in RSD under model it still says "fastboot"

Hi, I have a T-Mobile UK Atrix with everything stock. While doing an OTA, the battery died. Had to purchase a new battery to get it powered up, but now its stuck during boot saying "fail to boot 4/starting RSD mode" at the top.

Will this help me (1.2.6)? May only have enough charge for one try right now, so want to give it my best go...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] das8nt:
An international phone cannot use an AT&T firmware to flash an NO ONE should be trying to flash 4.1.26, 4.1.52 or 4.1.83 as it will hard brick your phone when trying to flash backwards. Check the Firmware Superthread in this same Development section for a list of firmwares for your phone. Look at the latest posts in that thread for the newest one of 2.3.4.

Also, I would advise not trying to flash when your battery is low. If your phone runs out of juice and powers down in the middle of flashing it could hard brick you as well.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] shottah:
Thanks, duly noted.

Hi guys, I'm hoping someone here can help me. I'm on CM9 2.6.32.59 w/unlocked bootloader and SIM-unlock, and I want to flash 1FF-olympus_emara-user-2.3.4-4.5.2A-74_OLE-31.2-release-keys-signed-T-Mobile-GB.sbf .

I know a fruitcake is much safer, but I've searched everywhere for a fruitcake of the current stock t-mobile UK ROM and can't find one anywhere.

So my question is am I ok or will I just end up with a brick? If I'm OK to flash I assume doing so won't affect the SIM unlock?

Thanks in advance, and apologies if this has been covered before (I've searched everywhere and couldn't find an answer). If so please point me to the post.

Yes, completely possible. Many have gone from branded builds to Retail with no issues. You may only have to change your APNs, but that's not difficult with apps like Tweakker.

regarding wifi weirdness: I too had funky wifi after first flashing this. I could see networks available, but just couldn't hold a connection to any of them. it would try to connect, but just couldn't get there. did this endlessly.

But it works now. All I had to do was "forget" known wifi connections, attempt to reconnect, enter password, and it now stays connected.

This just seems too easy a fix for everyone that is having wifi problems, and im sure most of you have already tried this. But just in case, i wanted to put the info out there.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] rebelduke:
No I didn't do that. I unrared it and the result was a file with the.sbf extension so I thought I was done. I think I read earlier that the .gz file had to be extracted with the result being the .sbf file. Thanks for your patience. I'll start reading again from the first post.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rebelduke:
Why does the file have to be renamed? When I use Winrar to extract the .rar file I get a .sbf file. When I rename it and use Winrar to extract it I get the .sbf file. Both files are identical in size. I'm pretty new at this so I don't understand the purpose of renaming since I seem to get identical results whether I rename or not.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tianqi:
Well.... I also downloaded it from the second link, file size 1509973035 as well....

And I have also successfully flashed it. I did rename the rar to gz tho.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] TinyRK:
.gz is a packing-container as well, just as much as a .rar-file. ;)

So in the end the result is the same, but I think RSD Lite unpacks it and checks for the hash.

So there you have it :)

RSD Lite should recognize your device and say “Model: NS Flash Olympus” and “Connected…”

I don;t know how long the process works so I am reluctant to just unplug.

I believe this issue is, it's not loading. I think a simple drag and drop will load the sbf and make the start button work. If this is unclear i believe someone gave better instructions earlier in this thread or in ken's other flash thread.
