Black screen of death - Motorola Droid Bionic

My mother got a bionic in the mail today and already called me because she got a sod n didnt know what to do. Is the bionic known for this? A batt pull worked, but im wondering if i should be expecting more calls abt them in the future.

System version??

Aw I got all excited and was gonna yell Paper-Weight of Death....but not if a simple battery pull worked
And it must be an older version because I haven't seen a bionic do this in quite a while.

Not to sound like a complete noob but what do u mean by system? Which version of android?
I did check n there was a system update available so i updated it. Whats weird is that both before n after the update its still 2.3.4. Clnot sure why it didnt go to 2.3.6.

Android Version isn't system version.
Go to your phone details or "About Phone" in settings.
My System Version is 5.9.902
(It should say something like 5.5.886.XT875.Verizon.en.US) <- Not gonna be exact but thats what its supposed to look like

flash 10.1 not detected by browser.

Apparently other people have commented in the market as well. Reflashed. Reinstalled. Please help!
I know im not the only one having this problem. People check!
I too am having this very same problem. What makes it worse is I'm on the stock 2.2 rom straight from HTC after a repair (just got it back today, it came preloaded with 2.2). I installed flash from the market, and bam. Nothing.
Very fishy.
I just switched roms and walls. This is about to be a mojor problem. I'm running cm6rc3. Wtf is going on?!
Make sure in the browser, the 'Enable plug-in' option is not set to off.
We are not stupid buddy. This is a real problem..
Checked, no problems, watched a couple of Flash videos. Running Enomther.

I just got my magic to nexus one upgrade and I too am having problems with flash.
Downloaded and installed through market
Plugins is enabled in the browser settings.
Tried reinstalling several times
Running stock android 2.2 vodafone rom
I've flashed several roms and its the same across the board. Its either flash or the browser. This sucks! Anyone help? You can't clear cache or settings on flash.
the one from the market doesn't work.
manually downloaded the apk from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=756531 and its working again
Possibly the apk in the Market got corrupted??
Someone should report it to Adobe/Google.
why not try an alternative browser. I doubt it'll work but its one simple troubleshooting step.
I went on there website and sent them an email I will post the reply when I get it

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

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.

Quick question

I decided to start using my old revolution as a backup phone. It is basically a brand new refurbished replacement they sent me a while back that I've never used. When I go to update it to gingerbread it says that there isn't an update available. I'm just wondering if Verizon pulled the update when they ended its life and is there any way I can still root it and and install a gingerbread rom on it without first updating to gingerbread? Any help would be appreciated.

Just go into about phone and make sure. It may have come updated from the shop. Then check this link:

You need to be on gingerbread to install a gingerbread ROM or you'll brick your phone, it's a complete pain in the ass to fix so I wouldn't try it. There are instructions to manually update to gb in the dev section if you have access to a pc...
