Hey guys, I tried out the root method posted, and ended up going through the thread. I noticed that everyone asks if the root method works on bell, but noone answers.
Is there a way to root a Bell Atrix HD running 4.1.2?

I'm in the same boat as you. I'd love to know if someone here knows why it doesn't work for the Bell version.
I also have a Bell Atrix HD and tried to root using the same procedure but failed many times.

I installed Chainfire and when I installed the drivers, the phone rebooted and got stuck at the Motorola logo. Wiping the data and cache doesn't work.
Phone was on JB. No Safestrap.
What to do to fix it? Please ask me any questions, I'll ask me and I'll let you people know.

Try to flash the Rom using Odin ...download it from here...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1885561:cowboy: .......
It says right in the description !! For Froyo and Gingerbread ONLY. NOT COMPATIBLE with Honeycomb/Ice Cream Sandwich/Jelly Bean !!
Multiple people here at XDA have screwed their phones up with Chainfire by installing it on incompatible software. Most of the Tegra 3 work arounds with Chainfire don't work anymore anyways.
Phone is fixed now. Thanks. Flashed 4.1 Rom using rsdlite.

Yeah, took some time to figure it out, had to edit the xml on the JB zip. Thanks all

For anyone reading this in the future, Odin is NOT for flashing our phones. Round these parts we use RSDLite.
Sheesh, these samsung kids come in here like they own the place..

Hi,
I am running 4.1.1 on an Atrix HD. I downloaded the motofail2go file to root my phone. I also downloaded the Motorola Device Manager. When I run the .bat file I get an error saying "adb is not recognized as an internal or external program, operable program or batch file." Please help! I really want to root my phone.
If you happened to read the other 14 topics you can't root 4.1

It would all end if someone could find the hole in motorolas armor. I am sick of this company...They haven even put the Atrix HD on the bootloader unlocker site of theirs.
It would end if people searched before they posted. 27 topics isn't gonna make root happen any faster.

Yeah i chat with one of Motorola support team and i asked them if they will ever unlock them bootloader and they say we working on it maybe with the next update it will be unlocked but i know thats just crap idk why google would let their own company lock its bootloader

Its not Motorola's choice. Att makes them. And I highly doubt they would unlock it via update.

I want to root my Atrix HD so I want to downgrade to stock but i already tried to do the whole RSDlite thing and I have gotten nowhere. PLEASE HELP!!!
Its not yet possible to downgrade from JB to ICS. Once you're on JB and no backup of root from ICS you're stuck until further notice. Sorry for that.
You are not the only one...there are thousands of us with the same problem. nothing we can do but wait for a new root method. no going back to ics....sell your phone,buy a new one with ics on it,and go from there.

Oh but that would require actual work on their part, and we can't have that can we?
Join the club, there are tons of us who'd kill to go back to ICS. BreakShadow has a point though, there are a good bit of posts with this same question. Don't be afraid to look through the forums first. =)

If you're on gingerbread. Search for Megatron root in this forum. Otherwise ICS is out and is easily rooted.

this you will need: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2144738 (use this to flash recovery/bootloader)
this is what i used after the completed above step: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1903752 (this is for root) (worked on my thrill) (it does root but super user doesnt show in menu)
this is how i got mine to root I was first stuck till trying this but sometimes it may take twice for it to work a good way to see if Super user is working is to download something like WiFi tether this is how i knew this method i tried to work I have official ICS on my phone
here you go...

You'll need to unlock your bootloader to install custom ROMs. As for root apps, there are a lot but to name a few: Root Browser, AdFree, Clean Master, Greenify, Startup Manager, and if you're going to be flashing ROMs, Titanium Backup, I cannot recommend the pro version enough.
Sent from my MB886 using xda app-developers app
Thanks I have safestarp and am running inflikted...any good ROMs you'd reccomend...I have clean master and root explorer to pro....I was not a fan of titanium back up...maybe it was just a bit confusing to me

Don't use safestrap with an unlocked bootloader man. Your setting yourself up for failure. It's mentioned at least a hundred times. Hell even in the title of the safestrap thread.

It seems to be working okay as of now...like I said I'm new to this...I think safe strap was in the same file with inflikted... What would you recommend using?

could someone post a link or instructions on how to uninstall safestrap correctly and get cwm..plz and thanks
Delete what ever partition you created with ss. Then start your phone and go into the app and click uninstall. Then use myth tools to flash cwm.

Hell, I have small fingers and it's an issue. I always have to be very careful selecting "+++Go Back+++" after I tap the wrong option so as not to erase anything like user data.
