Every time I reboot, I get the "android is upgrading" screen.
I am rooted and BL unlocked. This started after I tried --and failed, see below -- to flash Batakang Rises.
Is my Dalvik-cache being cleared somehow? Doesn't that do this?
I have tried a factory reset. I can't reflash my rom, since zips I flash don't seem to stick. (I posted about that earlier and got no responses.)
Not that big of a deal, but just quite annoying and time-consuming.
Same problem
I'm getting the same problem, although it doesn't affect anything, it just bothers me a lot.
On the development forum it is already on the "known bugs" list, so it must be a common problem.
I've tried all the common fixes but its still there. I LOVE the Batakang Rises rom, but this really annoying, and I may try out the PACman rom.
Its just built into the rom since the rom was meant for locked bootloaders.

Meant for locked bootloaders
So if we had a rooted phone, but locked boot loader, we wouldn't get this message during every start up? Sorry if this is a noob question

No idea because if you had a locked boot loader and tried to flash any of the roms for this phone (4.2.2 ones anyways) you'd probably brick your phone.
Anyways I'd definitely recommended PAC. I've tried all the major roms here and I like it the best. There is a battery drain on all 4.2.2 roms bit it seems a little higher on pac (might be fixed with the newesy build). There is a fix for it (more of a battery boost actually) in the dev section.

Doesn't recognize what? The PAC file or the device after PAC has been flashed?
Sent from my PACman Atrix HD
Just a thought but I have learned that when changing ROMs its best to manually WIPE system, data, cache. Don't know why but it seems to help. Especially when flashing back to stock.

Nevermind, I was just being a noob during fastboot - instead of entering "fastboot devices" I was entering "adb devices". I have PACman rom installed and running now thanks to the people on XDA

I was simply curious and discovered that this RAZR HD ROM works (almost perfectly!) on my AHD running ICS. I assume this should fully work for JB, because it's made for that kernel. So if you're on JB, please try it and let us know.

Is this the error message you guys are talking about? Also are you flashing to a freshly wiped (cache, dalvik, sys, factory data) slot or over an existing rom (i.e. dirty and not recommended)?

If that's the bug then there is a fix for it, but I didn't encounter that at all on ics.
Clean flash. I have already seen that guide but we don't have partitioning in SS.

Damn this encryption bug. I did not see that coming due to simply being on JB.
I saw another thread say that removing the microsd and rebooting a couple of times might get you past the error message. This isn't ideal and reinserting would probably bring it back, but if it works we could then determine if all the sensors work on JB.
Nothing works on my side either I tried reboots w/o SD and tried booting off another ROM and then installing no-go

Yeah that solution seems impractical. I think a simpler solution would be to work around the internal "sdcard." I'd remove anything that involves mounting/reading that area (/data/media) and see if it boots up then. I took a look at Batakang's init files and I noticed that his omit the /storage lines that this CM10 includes.
But my first priorities are these two cpa exams on the 14th and 28th. I've been wasting too much time on this new phone :/

This boots up just fine. The ROM creator himself says it can be flashed with Safestrap: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1993888
The issue is getting past the "Encryption Unsuccessful" message for those on JB. From what I've read it's because the internal sdcard cannot fully read. (Maybe a factory reset & SD wipe via stock would help by erasing any encrypted data?)

No. Its because we use a bootstrap recovery. I don't think its SS compatible because the Encryption Unsuccessful error only happens because of the incompatibility.

So I got CM10 up and running and kept getting an error with .android.media so I powered off. When i reboot it doesn't go past the "Warning bootloader unlocked screen". I google it and find something that says to try to wipe \sdcard. I do that and now backups and rom files are gone from CWM...I think I really screwed up this time...
EDIT: I suppose my actual question is what I do now since all the files are gone
Yea wiping the sd card was a bar idea. All of your stuff is gone now. Your gonna have to flash stock with rsd. For future reference you generally only wipe data and factory reset. Also you might wanna go and read through all the information about what everything does and how it works. Because it seems like your kinda guessing and don't really know what your doing and your gonna end up bricking your phone.

Ok, I've flashed stock before. I just get the file, remove the "getvar" lines then...transfer to phone? Last time I did this my phone was actually functioning.
.. No. Go into the android development section and get a stock rom then you put your phone in fastboot mod and flash the file through rsd lite.
Sent from my Rage MATRIX HD MAXX
So I finally downloaded the file but now my computer wont install the device drivers -_- It says it failed and I'm guessing its because the phone won't boot. Since the drivers wont install it isn't picking up the device (i think). Is there anything else I can do?
EDIT: I just remembered why we have the Internet.
Yeah.. You can go to the Motorola site and get the drivers lol.
Sent from my Rage MATRIX HD MAXX
I'm assuming I need the 4.1.1 files since you can't downgrade to ICS right?
What the heck its still not being listed as a storage option to transfer files to. Unless I'm (unsurprisingly) doing something wrong again...
Dude you don't transfer files to it. Like I said earlier put the phone in ap fastboot and flash the att firmware with rsd lite.

I'm in fastboot but after that you lost me. This is the last time I mess with my phone like this.
Good man. You don't need to brick it lol. Google a program called rsd lite. Its for your computer. Plug your phone in in fastboot mode and make sure you have the drivers installed. Then rsd will find your phone and you just install the att firmware.

There was a thread somewhere on the Atrix HD section saying to use the Motorola Photon Q's clockworkmod and a bunch of people were saying it worked fine. I did it and you helped me flash the rom using clockwork. The cyanogen I flashed is the one in the Development section with the working camera. I restored my stuff with titanium and it said to reboot. I was going to bed so I just hit Power Off and when i tried to turn it back on it got stuck at the bootloader unlock screen,
Did you make sure to wipe data and system along with the cache? And mount the system before flashing?
Sent from my JokerMATRIX HD MAXX
I don't know if I mounted the system...I just did exactly what the instructions on the post said: 0. Backup, then Format System
1. Install the ROM
2. Install my AHD Fix -- must disable zip file verification
3. Wipe Data/Factory Reset
4. Wipe Cache
5. Reboot and enjoy!
I did all of this.
I rooted and unlocked my bootloader. I then decided to try some new ROMs. I installed PAC and used it for a lil while. I then downloaded another. Did the install. It said Install Complete. But when I rebooted, PAC was still there. Figured I accidentally installed the same one again, so I went to the SDCARD and deleted it. Then tried again. No change.
Yes I formatted Cache and did factory reset. No change.
What am I missin?

Did you mount the system on the new install? Or did you install aokp? Because it looks pretty similar.

So I have tried installing this rom, but I've failed many many times. I'm not sure what the problem is, but if you've already successfully installed PACman rom, please tell me your exact steps (I'm a noob)! In the mean time, here are my steps:
1. Startup Safestrap Recovery
2. Create ROM Slot: rom-slot1 (system partition size: 1024 MB, data partition size: 1 GB, cache partition size)
3. factory reset, wipe system, format data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache
4. Flash PACman rom (mb886_PAC_JB_4.2.2-v22.4.0_20130607-003508.zip) via SD card
5. Flash gapps (gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip) via SD card

7. Wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache

We do. Not everyone needs or wants to be unlocked for whatever reason. Is it annoying answering these questions? Yes. This, IMHO, is a problem from people used to crack flashing and not bothering to read OPs, guides, faqs, or even use the search bar.

This is not my first time rooting a phone and installing customs roms.Phone is rooted and bootloader is unlocked. But Im having trouble with safestrap. After creating a slot for the new rom. Then do all the wipes for that slot. Then I go to flash the rom. Which only take like 10 seconds. Which is faster then it has ever been before. Then it ask if I would like to reboot, also saying you have no OS installed. I can switch back to the stock rom slot and the phone reboots and works perfect. Been trying to figure this out for 2 days now why its not flashing the rom properly.
