Noob question - Motorola Droid 3

Just so I'm clear when people are talking about 5.5.890 etc is that the system version or the build number when I'm looking in system>about phone

Then does anyone know why the xt860 is so far behind the Droid 3. My system version is 5.1.544 and when I check for a system update it says I am up to date. Is it Motorola or the service provider that writes the updates

Upgrade to Gingerbread from Froyo with rooted Atrix 4G

I just got a rooted Atrix 4G which is running 2.2.2 but I can't tell if its stock or not and I want to upgrade to Gingerbread somehow. I don't know what to do exactly in order to have it. So if some who has had the same question about this was able to upgrade to Gingerbread and could help me out that would be great. Also If i need to uproot in order to get it please help me out with that to I looked into aRoot and that seemed a little bit skeptical so just let me know via PM or the thread.
.......really? :|

for starters, go to menu>settings>about phone and see if anything there gives away the state of your rom. also, is your BL unlocked (does it show unlocked on motorola boot animation)?
If your phone has all the blur content and has certain things locked down and such then chances are its stock.
another thing to check is whether or not your system is deodexed as most custom roms are.
I don't know a foolproof way of checking myself.
Alright well I don't think my phone has a custom rom on it but here is what I have just to make sure im right. I do know my phone does not have an unlocked b.l
System Version: 4.1.83MB860.ATT.en.US
Model:MB860
Baseband: N_01.77.15P
Webtop: oshwt_u1_4.257.30
Build number: OLYFR_U4_1.8.3
Let me know if I need anything else. I would take a screenshot but the app doesn't work for some reason.

seems like stock. at any rate, the OTA image will fail to update during the version check if it's not. follow motorola's update instructions here: http://www.motorola.com/Support/US-EN/Android_Products/ATRIX-4G_Software_Update_Page

so if I try to update it to gingerbread while my phone is rooted nothing will happen? Or should I unroot it and then update it?

Thread closed. Post in the correct section

2 ? For soak tester when you get update

1. When you get it is it the same build # as the leaked update.
2. If its different and you have the leaked update were you able to update successfully
Thank you for any info you can provide.

Upload the new update here so we can get it

Yeah be good to know this info.
Tho not sure to what extent it would go to check prior to install, guessing any higher version numbering on the build we'd be able to update normally.
Would have to have a higher version number.

Do a factory wipe and wipe dalvik cache. then try again.
It would be helpful if you tell us the firmware version, or custom ROM you're using, tab model etc.
I figures it out.I did a density change and for some reason that caused it.I'm good now.thanx

You can only change the kernel and baseband on these phones with a OTA update from Motorola. Our bootloader is locked.
You can return the phone to stock software with one of the FXR apps that are available. But the baseband and kernel will remain unchanged. I used this one successfully last weekend: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/5484-r3l3as3droot-and-43v3r-root-for-the-bionic-v21/
Will the method mentioned on the RootWiki site also remove the bootstrap/CWM if installed?
Yes it will
So basically I can load bootstrap and cwm from koush and something like liberty and then go back to the way it was when unboxed with no sign of any changes? The reason I ask is I am still in my 14 day return window.

After installing CWM make a virgin backup before making ANY changes.

[Q] Installed Minimoto,now no GSM service

Hello.I have a Droid 3 that I flashed with the Chinese Droid 3 radio to use on At&T,worked fine,just installed safestrap and after installed minimoto.I get no GSM service with minimoto and when I go to search for networks it says unavailable.
Is there anything I can do to run minimoto with GSM service?I hate the stock Droid 3 layout and whatnot.
Any help would be appreciated,thanks.
Did you flash the build.people?

You mean the build prop? I'm sorry,i am still a noob.Do i have to flash the chinese radio for minimoto as well?
You need to edit or flash the gsm build prop patch. You can find it in the minimoto thread. Sorry dont have a link but read through and you will find it.
Or you can read this it might help.
