What rds do I have to have and will this brick it I will try but if it needs a updated RDS i need the link and the link for the driver for the DX i run linux but i also.have windows xp 32 bit
There was somebody in another thread that said they would try anything that was released to get the phone rooted so look in a couple other threads and contact him.

I tried it, and it will not flash through rsd lite 4.6. You need a newer version. For me, running 5.2, it would load up, read phone, try to load sbf and then it would lock the phone. No charging, no power button, nothing. I had to pull the batt for about a min to get it to work.
And the file is based off of the bootloader from the pre-release sbf which is why it's an older version. I will update as we try new things. I have couple X's at my disposal to wreck.

so I've been playing around with my aria for a couple of weeks and turned my nexus back on thats rooted and sure enough I have an ota update available for android 2.2, which I already have on the phone.. possibly stupid question, if I update will I lose my root even though I did it bootloader method?
and I thought custom roms even if its stock didn't get ota's

Thanks for the link, it helped me, too.
You guys preaching to search (which I'm not against), I just wanted to point out that you linked to an entirely different site. Thus, had the OP searched *this* site, by your own admission, he/she might not have found what he/she was looking for. Interesting...
My 2 cents here...I had a rooted nexus one froyo 83b WITH a custom recovery.. which supposes to block the frf91 update..n guess what it didn't..my nexus rebooted..it didn't even reboot to recovery it just did a soft reset n when I it back on it had frf91 with no root access..so I'm like wtf?? So I tried to reboot to the custom recovery and yes..you guys guessed with...it went back to the original recovery...

Gotta agree, dont be lazy. Use the search like you should.
I just got an update notification also, and I'm rooted. I let it reboot/install but it showed an error. It was probably frf91.
ladies, congratulations on the update and re-rooting. i'm glad to hear that it worked out for yall.
Who have the UNLOCKED bootloader bin file from the Dev ATRIX ? I have 2 atrix and i'll try to flash it on my 2nd device for testing.
If you have all required files, mirror it please and post the links
UPDATE APRIL 18TH:
I need a software for open the bin files for comparison purposes ( HEX EDITOR DONT WORK )
I may be wrong, but what I have been told is that while the bootloader can be flashed, since it is not signed the phone will brick.

It will fail I believe because it will not be able to pass the checks for the sigs = brick. Unless of course you have a secret technique you wanna try that's not just a simple flash

Are we sure this will even brick the phone? Without being signed wouldn't it just fail to start the process? What we need is a way to push the bootloader to the phone that does not require it being signed.
There is some information about the bootloader in
http://dev.gitbrew.org/~dasmoover/debdroid/doc/tegra/tegra_250_froyo_20110207.pdf
Not sure if it will help you out any...I have not gotten into Atrix development as much as I should.
If i replace the oem bootloader file by the dev atrix bin file, everything should works. Ill compare the 2 files tonight
I'm pretty sure someone has tried this..

i have managed to install this and boot into the bootmenu, the screen is distorted tho so cant see what the menus actually are.
install apk from market called "defy 2ndinit" open app and install the bootmenu, it will pull files from the net to install.
there will be a blue led on at all times aswell even when phone is booted normally
power off phone
plug charger in
you will see distorted bootmenu
hope someone can fix the distortion
edit: you can uninstall using the app with no side effects
This thread has several versions of the app attached as apk's. Maybe this will help someone.

If you didn't know it may brick your phone, you probably had no business trying it in the first place. Btw, OP really doesn't help us get any closer to bringing over ROMs. This is a defy app and hasn't been reworked for the Atrix yet. It is probably something edgan needs to incorporate, but I would stay away from this.

This is the "development" forum. This is not stable code. Try re-flashing an SBF file.
when you say you tested it, you say waht MAY happen also, i reflashed the sbf service file, but man, you dont really know how to post stuff, you always says it can be harmfull, if you dont, that means it works a 100%, but thats ok, nothing i dont fixed with 20 minutes
ps:by the way it may not work on retail(and maybe on all) brazillian system
it enters in the second init, but system do not allow to boot the official because of it, to get this being used we need to have a custom ROM able to boot using it
edit:
henrys01 do you already saw one single forum "stable rom"? ROMs, recoveries and all that kind of thing are always in development, even stable!
stevendeb25 sorry for that, rage attack =( it dont worked, i already explained why
LordOfTheSnatch i came for this since the first ROM to motorola dext, if i did that, i know the harms, but yeah, lets stay out of this while doesnt have one made or ported for atrix

Everyone who knows what they are doing knows it can brick your phone, especially when it isn't made for your phone. The other people just get what's coming to them for doing stuff they don't understand without researching first.
First rule of flashing.... IT MAY BRICK YOUR PHONE. Even if it is stable.

just because it's newer than 2.3.4. just compared the 906 cdt with this one; 906 is 04, this one is 02, so it won't even flash. oh well, 2.3.4 is still pretty nice and will have fully functional kexec soon

I agree, higher numbers = win. I would just copy libmoto_ril.so, my apns-conf.xml and build.prop from my original rom, boot and see what happens and then if I didn't have data/phone I would swap back my original files, wipe data/cache and boot and see what happened, hopefully you would have a fully working bell 2.3.6 on your vzw phone. Let us know.
Thanks for the tip, but if it's not as easy as flashing fxz and radio, not gonna mess around with it.

i dont see how you will brick your device beyond repair... we've been switching these libs since the beginning with no negative effects and if something does go wrong(the only thing that could possibly happen is a temporary bootloop, until you reflash the sbf) you just use rsd and reflash the bell sbf to have a fully working phone again. If you need more help, need to know which libs, where to put the or permissions etc, anyone can help you, feel free to ask if you decide top give it a try though I think I already posted instructions in a few other threads. I'll look around and update the OP if I find them

Hey everyone, I've got a very serious problem here.
Last week after rooting and unlocking bootloader with motochopper, I tried to swap my external/internal storage.
The partitioning method to mount create a partion and mount worked, but I couldn't replace the mount points of either storage. So i decided to use a scripted method to achieve my goal, that didn't work and I was left with frustration and I ran a script that was supposed to be the last line of the tutorial and my phone instantly went black and I rebooted.
Been stock at AT&T white boot logo ever since.
Trying to use this method HERE but I can't find the stock rom where I need to delete some lines in an xml file.
I have downloaded the BataKang stock AT&T rom but the xml file isn't there and I don't know which way to follow.
I'll have access to a Windows Pc on Monday so am trying to download all required files now and to get the best possible tutorial to flash and return my phone to working other.
Thanks in advance.
