Brick??

I flashed the new ICS build on my Bionic from Liberty, and needless to say am stuck on the splash screen. I tried to flash the Liberty 2.0 901 build to no avail. I cannot get to the stock recovery mode only the flash mode and am wondering if I am bricked totally. When I flash Liberty it says FAIL, any suggestions?

Are you using safestrap or bootstrap?

I used RDS Lite

So your good then?

No, it fails every time I try to flash it and when I hook my phone up to the USB it shows it picks up no information about the phone in RDS Lite. Is there somewhere I can download the stock FXZ file? Am I missing something obvious? Thanks.

Where you on 902?

I can help. Follow the link that i gave earlier in the thread.

when using rsd lite make sure you have the right drivers installed and plug in your phone with the stock motorola cord. make sure its plugged into the back of your pc as its known to fail when plugged into secondary usb ports. rsd should detect your phone then.

The fix:
moto-fastboot the system.img
You will lose root, but you can use motofail by Dan Roseberg to regain it easily.

These are files that can be used to truly factory restore your phone. If you had a custom rom installed, this would put you back to stock.
You use Motorola's RSD Lite program to flash to your phone while it is in AP Fastboot mode.
This will work on locked bootloaders because they are signed files from Motorola meant for flashing in this way.
EDIT: As Pzyduck says above, these are official firmware not leaks

Don't flash AT&T on Bell or vice versa, you may get trapped because of secure versions.
(btw. I know, it's codenamed qinara, and not dinara, but meh, too lazy to fix it )

If you look inside the files themselves Motorola was too lazy to fix it too! They use both throughout lol.

On 2 accounts we wouldn't be able to do this.
1) The phone will only take signed images for system in AP Fastboot. There are sig checks on flashing and on boot (we can assume this, we can test more obviously since we have FXZ backups).
I didn't want to test flashing a rooted system dd'd out before because we had no FXZ's to test. Now that we have them it might be worth it to try it out. Worst case use these FXZ.
Rooted system.img: you can get the entire partitions here which includes it: http://crackflasher.com/dev/mattlgroff/MB886.ATT.en.US/AtrixHdPartitions.zip
Be extra careful flashing things you do not have backups for...
2) The system.img.ext4 file inside of these are not only compressed, but appear to be encrypted as well.

i tried but nothing. only error when installing

There is a new firmware listed as MB886_att-user-4.1.1-9.8.0Q-97_MB886_FFW-20-27-release-keys-ATT-US_BuildA.xml.zip has anyone tried to to flash this yet? Is this 4.1.1 OTA that we have now? I need to know because like an idiot I tried to flash back to 4.0.4 from 4.1.1 and now it fastboots on every reboot. Super annoying. Anyway I need to flash to 4.1.1 to fix this apparently.

[Q] Jellybean Update Fails!!

Whenever i try to do an OTA update, it downloads the new os but fails to install. It installs maybe 25% and then the android falls over with the red triangle. Keep it mind im new to the rooting scene so bare with me haha it just cuts back on and says update failed. WHAT DO I DO?!?!?!:crying:

What have you done to your phone? Typically OTA updates fail because you have modified/deleted/changed something on the phone that the update is trying to patch/update. If you don't know what you changed, it's hard to change it back to stock.
Use RSDlite and the JB fastboot files to flash your phone to stock Jellybean.
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/cdma_maserati/list.php
download the 4.1.2 version and search for RSDLite.

Revert to ICS now?

Sorry if this has been mentioned in another post somewhere on the forum, but I am curious about something. Now that we can unlock our bootloaders, does this mean we can revert to ICS?
I understand more about rooting and whatnot, but not so much about the bootloader other than it's purpose.

Yes. We just need to disable the bugging my friend is getting about updating to 4.1 every 6 hours.

1, Bootloader unlock

Fastboot
I have step-by-step instructions for doing this in the HOW TO thread. Just read the top two paragraphs about using root and the special fastboot for Motorola devices and you'll be just fine -- most of the help I've given was because no one bothered to read them.

Now that I have figured out how to revert back to ICS and this thread provides no actual helpfulness, that isn't already posted elsewhere, a mod can delete it. Thanks for the help Skeevy.

still trying to figure out what exactly FXZ means and whether its a good way to basically fix your phone regardless of what you may have done to it. Will this allow me to change my borked stock rom and rom slot 1 running aosp to just nullify everything and get stock jellybean back onto my bionic? And if so, what are the instructions to do so, (ive never used RSD)

How do I flash this? Does it matter what firmware my phone is on? I know I'm not on the update path. Pretty much I rooted and loaded a Custom ROM for my bros Bionic. But now I want the new JB for his phone ...

I'm not sure anyone actually knows what "fxz" means.. Flashable XML Zip... Lol.. Maybe..
But, yes, you can use RSDLite (for Windows only) - make sure you have your moto drivers installed on your computer - extract the zip close to C:\ with no spaces in your path - point RSD to the .xml file in the extracted folder - boot in to fastboot mode (power + vol. down probably, if like my moto) - connect USB and make sure your phone is recognized - and hit go..
Or you can flash those files with moto-fastboot (some with just fastboot).. Make a .bat file or .sh script.. See mine here for an example: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36834775&postcount=108 - WARNING NOTE: If you try to use my files for the A2, you MUST first cross check the partitions and file names in my .bat and the .xml from the FXZ package - and edit the .bat as necessary for your device.
Letting RSD run the xml will wipe/flash everything, usually including bootloader - back to stock ota jb - in theory... YOU WILL ALSO LOOSE ROOT! (so, hope you have a root method for JB).. Or it could possibly brick your phone if it's not the correct firmware/region, or if trying to downgrade.. See my batch file that flashes system.img only for borked systems - but, yea, this could all be pointless, or for emergency situations only - until you have a way to re-gain root.
Check out the Atrix 2 forum.. We have a lot of experience with the FXZs..

Yes it will. I did the same thing. I initially failed on Step 5. I had to extract the zip file and modify the XML removing the fb_mode_set and fb_mode_clear lines (See http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/topic/1107-fix-unknown-fastboot-command-oem-phone-connected/).

yep, it worked for me, too. too bad we lost root. I'll keep my fingers crossed for an exploit to be discovered.

My question is this, If I bricked my phone tring to go back to ICS after JB update could I use the 4.1.2 file with RSD light to fix phone to JB? or is this only to flash from ICS to JB if you had some thing wrong with ICS install and JB would not take OTA? Thanks for all the work getting these files up though!

I get "Failed flashing process. 5/24 oem fb_mode_set -> Phone returned FAIL"
Any ideas?

Firmware Team is dedicated to releasing full official FXZ packages from Motorola. This is far from just a ROM. This completely reflashes the device to a pristine factory state.

No Internal Memory
I edited the lines as directed and flashed the update with RSD Lite and the phone works like it is supposed to, but now I can't access the internal memory. I tried to format it like the phone suggested and then it wouldn't recognize any of the memory cards - I think it erased e: drive. So I reflashed it and now I don't get the message to format it, but it won't show up in Windows... my 32GB external SD card shows up, but not the internal memory.
It looks like I don't have permission to access the internal memory. Any suggestions on how to do this with no root?
Thanks.

another phone, another dilemma. I don't know exactly what happened. The events that led me here are too long to describe and I don't want to bore anybody. I'm stuck at the Encryption unsuccessful loop and I still have no idea how to get out of it. Any help to get me out of this and back to working again would be extremely appreciated.

4.1.2 flash failure after CM 10.1.3
After finally getting my Bionic 4.1.2 rooted I was anxious to install a custom rom. I chose CM 10....
It blackscreened on me. So I decided to RSD back to 4.1.2 and got the "flash failure". I'm completely stuck....unable to flash anything. I need HELP.

I flashed my bionic to get 3g with pageplus. Will this FXZ file return my radio back to the factory 4g LTE state?
