R3L3AS3DRoot and 43V3R Root for the BIONIC
Works on any system software version (.886 and .893)
Now for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X
Presented to you by dhacker29, DroidTh3ory, Crpeck and TH3ORYROM
I have totally rewritten the windows version and Crpeck has rewritten the Linux/Mac OS X version
The downloads include all of the files necessary to either root or restore and root your bricked BIONIC no matter what system version you are on (.886 or .893
I have zipped up the fastboot binary, boot.img, system.img, ROOT tools and a custom script so that all you have to do is download the zip. Extract it the folder and double click on Root.bat (windows) or MotoRooter.sh (Linux/MacOS X) file to be given the option to root your BIONIC or recover and restore from a bootloop or softbrick on your BIONIC.
The Windows version now includes the ADB exe and DLL file so you don't have to worry about not having ADB setup.
The Linux and Mac OS X version has been updated by Crpeck, so that it is now menu driven and has a clicky icon for Mac OS X users. It includes the adb and fastboot binaries for both OS's and will auto determine which platform you are running.
Instructions:
Download the zip:
Windows: R3l3AS3DRoot_Windows_V2.1.zip
MotoRooter for Linux and Mac OS X: MotoRooter-1.1.zip
Extract the zip folder on your computer.
Double click the file R3L3AS3DRoot.bat for windows, MotoRooter.sh for Linux, or Mac-MotoRooter for Mac OS X in the folder where you extracted the zip.
Follow the prompts on the screen and you'll be given the option to restore to factory stock, restore to factory stock and reroot with forever foot, or forever root your phone.
Each section gives you instructions on what mode to put your phone in so follow them carefully!
Enjoy the scripts!! And show Crpeck some love for helping with the Mac OS X stuff and making my linux version even better.
If you encounter an error message please post what the error was and which operating system you were running it on so we can help you better.

You should be able to convert my batch file into a shell script and put in the mac OS X binary. I am going to try to do a linux version and if I do the shell script should work in OS X.
This is awesome!! Thank you! It's always good to have this on hand!
When I try to run it I get this message:
"the program couldnt start because AdbWinApi.dll is missing from yhour computer"
I do have Android SDK installed on my computer....Any advice?
LOL Damn it.. I just had my phone unbricked last night doing it "the other way" and this comes out??? Oh joy!

Not working for me, getting the dll missing crap...
This seemed to be a standalone fix without any pre-reqs from what i read in the OP, is there some kind of registered dlls from something else involved?
I actually installed the sdk and stuff but can't mess about with this computer too much as i'm at work.
Any ideas?

1) Flash the phone with the stock ULYFR_U4_1.2.6 SBF file
2) Obtain root and sideloading via aRoot
3) Update phone with the OTA OLYFR_U4_1.5.7
Once OLYFR_U4_1.5.7 is installed, you will NOT be rooted, but you will have sideloading. This should suffice for some users until root is achieved.
I personally think the OLYFR_U4_1.5.7 is worth losing root for a bit. In my own experience, the update has smoothed out the Atrix noticeably. Only time will tell.
If this helps anyone, please let me know.

My question is will the update still be there today if we flash back to 1.2.6 and reroot with aroot to get the update because I'd hate to not be able to get the update again. Like you stated, it seems to be more stable as well running a lot smoother.

I flashed back to 1.2.6 after upgrading and don't get it anymore (not even through "System updates" through Settings). So idk, wait til someone's able to extract it out of the update.zip or something I guess.
EDIT: Nvm, just tried it again and got the message (through Settings)
I got it a few times. Haven't needed to try again.

This is entirely unnecessary, as you can just install apps through adb still on 1.5.7.
Just run:
Code:
adb.exe install <package>.apk
Where <package> is the name of the app you want to install. Reflashing back to stock to install the apps is a waste of time.
You are absolutely right, if someone wants to use ADB.
Sideloading independent of a computer is important to me personally.

Amazon apps on beta update?
is there a way to sideload the apps from amazon appstore?
Haven't used Amazon. Does it have it's own installer or do you just download .apk files to you phone/sd card?

Not sure if you would receive the update via OTA with that. If you were to flash that SBF followed by aRoot, would you receive the update? If you can confirm anyone receiving the update on 1.5.2, then you SHOULD be golden.
I did the update. Lost root. But can still sideload.

Wrote a simple BAT file to automate to process a little...
Basically...
1) Extract the files to a directory and put the apk(s) that you wish to install/sideload in that same directory.
2) Connect your device and make sure usb debugging is enabled and all usb drivers are installed.
3) Drap and drop an APK file onto the BAT file, and it should install sucessfully onto your device. Command window will return "Sucess" if all goes well.
This is a really simple BAT file, i'm not all that great at coding or writing bat files, but I hope this helps some people. The devs might be able to write a better script. Hopefully someone will crack this update soon and figure out how to root!
Right on man! This will be great for folks when they are installing .apk files through ADB.

I just tried rooting my new Droid Bionic with Pete's Motorola Root Tool, works fine.
To root your Droid Bionic:
Step 1. Set your phone as "Charge Only".
Step 2. Make sure USB Debugging is checked on under Settings->Applications->Development.
Step 3. Connect your phone to your computer via USB Cable.
Step 4. For Windows, you need to install Motorola drivers.
Download drivers here:
http://androiddrivers.net/motorola-android-drivers/download-motorola-droid-bionic-windows-drivers/
Step 5. Download Pete's Motorola Root Tools here:
http://www.psouza4.com/bionic/
Step 6. Unzip Pete's tools and run the exe file for Windows and similar for Mac and Linux.
You can donate to Pete at psouza4.com and xda user djrbliss, I only used their tools and it worked.
Also see how to tether for free after you root, here.

With your phone connected to the PC did you switch the phone to "charge only" mode? before starting? You can verify this by using the pulldown menu in your phone and selecting the ongoing USB connection, then "charge only"
worked! thanks! I forgot to change directory...Thanks

I'm looking for someone to test out a Fastboot XML zip file with RSD Lite. It's similar to an SBF file, which Motorola no longer uses for their new devices.
If you are interested in being the guinea pig, PM me. The file will bring you back to stock and possibly restore bricked users.

I thought a sbf was released for the Droid3, when did Motorola decide not to use them anymore?
The Droid 3 is probably one of the last Motorola phones to have SBFs, from now on we'll be using Fastboot XML Zips, or FXZs.

Can I use this on a pre-release Bionic without worry? The only difference I have found between my pre-release Bionic and retail units is that mine has a slightly different baseband version.

I haven't tried it yet. But did you download busybox? Or busybox installer? There is a difference, assuming that you just went to the Google Play app. HOWEVER, if you used the link and it still isn't working, disregard. I had the plain ol busybox and the install failed for me. I will be using the BusyBox Installer. I'll know once my SD card is done formatting.

Hi all,
Trying this on an ATRIX HD 4.1.1 AT&T, got my usb debug enabled,
I pressed any key to start and the "Daemon started successfully" but it is just there,
How long does it normally take? Where should the unzipped folder be sitting in?
Using Windows7.
Thanks

Hi guys!
I used the file, run it as admin on my pc. I had my phone in debugging and the cmd screen showed me everything was fine. When I try to open SuperSU I get an error message: The are no binaries for SU and SuperSU cannot install them. This is a problem! I hit ok and it closes. If I open TB I get the message that it coudn't get the root privileges.
My phone is a Motorola Razar 201M (XT902) from Softbank (Japan), updated to 4.1.2
Any comment?
Thx!
Just reboot once and open su and then update binaries

All ready reboot and open again SU. Same result. I've used now two versions of motochopper, a 2.5Mb and a 3.6Mb. The only difference is the SU version, and I always have the same error. Any help? Any advice?
