I was looking forward to buying this phone instead of the GS3 as I'm on T-Mobile. However, when I was browsing through the Development section I don't see anything. Can anyone inform me on why this phone doesn't have that much ROM support yet?

Locked boot loader my man. We have root now. Root and safestrap are pretty recent, so that's why there are limited ROMs. We couldn't root for a while, but now we can, but only if you stay on ICS to root before upgrading to the leaked JB.

Locked boot loader is the main issue, I believe. This phone is kinda locked down.

Another thing is that we only have 8Gb of internal storage, thus leaving little room for ROM slots on the internal sdcard using SS3 recovery.
I just finished an internal/external memory swap script in the DEV section, so this should help free up some space for ROMs.

There are two different Atrix HD ROM's out as of 12/02/2012. Must not have looked very hard.

Yes, I've rooted, installed safestrap, made a back up. Haven't tried that script to switch internal and external memory yet, sounds scary.

What's your current bootloader version?
The easiest way to put in a new bootloader is just to grab the .902 FXZ. It will make sure that you're on a new one.

Me neither. All you really can do with the bionic is install the latest update. Not really sure if it changes the boot loader. I was under the impression that it updated the radios and glitches in the os. Never heard of it changing the boot loader.

Hello RAZR HD owners.
I have a request, I unfortunately took the update that has locked my bootloader. I have searched the forum for active links for compatible roms.. I am having no luck. My request, if you have them, post a link to download rom/and what you liked or didn't like about them.
That would be awesome!
Right now I'm running Nexesque on my XT926 with 9.18.79 and locked bootloader. It's a stock-based 4.1.2 of course but it's debloated, its rock solid, the battery life is good and I've flashed the add-on that removes the Navigation Bar (I use PIE Control). http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/topic/9151-rom-droid-nexesque-for-razr-hd-5182013/
---------- Post added at 12:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:30 AM ----------
I've also run a version of wWidow HD that's based on 4.1.1. I didn't run it for long but I didn't see any real problems. I installed each of these ROMs (wWidow and Nexesque) in RAM slots on Safestrap and toggled back and forth for a couple of days. I preferred Nexesque. wWidow HD for Safestrap is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2161937

Chainfire needs to the stock recovery to build root for the device, basically auto root by chainfire modifies stock recovery temporarily, flashes su then flashes back stock firmware through odin.

You can't pull recovery without root on your device, the only thing we ATT users can do is wait for Samsung to post the firmware which they havent, SM-G900A is the ATT model number, Tmo and Sprint are already up so they already have root.

Keep in mind guys that if the ATT BL is locked chances are CF Root will fail to flash or boot even if CF builds one for ATT...also if this happens knox warranty is tripped leaving you without warranty coverage and no root...likely a new KK exploit will have to be found...hope I'm wrong about the BL as I'd like to get rid of bloat before handing the phone off to GF..
