[Q] Atrix HD root, BataKang help

Hi. I recently bought a Motorola Atrix HD. I am a new Andriod user. I came from ios but I saw jelly bean and made the switch. I don't know anything about root or installing ROMs. I do know the Atrix has a locked bootloader and that means it is hard to customize. I was wondering if anyone could show me step by step on how to install ROMs root and more. If there are any videos for the Atrix that would be helpful. I would also like to know how to install BataKang. Thanks
Sincerely, n00b

For Batakang ROM:

They are all self-explanatory and contain instructions for what to do. I cannot make an easier How To than the one I already worked hard on for Batakang ROM sadly.

Thanks. What about the jelly bean leak?

Installing the jellybean leak is simple, but more complicated if you want to be rooted on the jelly bean leak. Here is the guide I used to do it, worked great
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1976956
If you are already rooted on stock ICS, pick up the guide in between steps 10 and 11 where it says "Edit: Neroga's post about retaining root is easier to follow." and work your way down.

And also, I wouldn't use Batakang ROM ... YET ... right now Wifi and AT&T LTE don't work, I would stick rooted Jellybean leak for now unless you really don't care about Wifi or LTE. No offence Mattlgroff

Root just let's you do so much more. More power. If you're getting adb errors then it must not be setup properly...

Make sure your using Motofail2go utility and have USB Debugging on! You may have forgot about USB debugging?

It looks like your command prompt can't find adb.exe, best guess would be that run.bat isn't being run from the same folder as adb.exe!
1) make sure you extracted "motofail2go_windows.zip" so that you have a plain folder called "motofail2go".
2) make sure you double click "run.bat" from the motofail2go folder
-possibly try right clicking on "run.bat" and selecting "run as administrator" instead of just double clicking... not sure if this is necessary but it can't hurt!
I'm not good at explaining let me just get you a screen shot ...
Before you do those steps:
1) make sure drivers are installed
2) connect phone to computer via usb cable
3) enable usb debugging
4) leave your phone turned on, sitting idle: locked or at the home screen ect.
God bless

Oh, also did you do what it said to trigger the bug report? Triggering a bug report is a normal part of the procedure, it prompts you to generate a bug report even if it worked fine. After completing the bug report it should continue the rooting process.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THAnk youi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The UNROOT
If you wanna unroot your device, why so ever, the easiest way is to use Unlock Root (Link above) open it, connect your phone via USB, enable Debugging Mode and click unroot. If you wanna unroot it, e.g. to be able to send it back to LG on warranty, better use the method below, to unbrick your device with R&D tool.
Because like this, you will get back an unrooted device, which has also been hardresetted. So LG will hardly/never get a clue, that it has ever been rooted.
Dont forget to format your SD card as well

That's from my how to, but I think I should correct this. Use Smartflashtool and flash the latest version available for you. Do a factory reset from within settings menu and everything should be fine

Just run the exe file to open the toolkit. First, if NVFlash drivers are not installed, select that option (I) to install the driver.
Then, select the option which you want. Each option's detailed description (what it does) is explained here in the first post. Read it completely and you should be able to use the toolkit.
If you are still having doubts, tell us, what do you wish to do exactly with the toolkit? Flash a new bootloader? Change partition size? Flash recovery?

Hi, i have a stock P990 upgraded to GB v20e. for some magical reason, LG does not want/allow me to upgrade to ICS.
I just want to upgrade to ICS and i dont quite understand why i should NVflash first?
could someone please point me on which post# or link how to use this tool?
currently downloading it and hoping that it isnt that hard.
could i simply go #6 from the tool? or do i need to though each steps?

Philippines v20e, it was the latest at that time and I never bothered to update to the latest GB version again.
Just found out that LG Blocks upgrades to ICS if you have an older OS version.
I called customer service and they recommend sending my phone to the service center to upgrade it to ICS (pay fee if not under warranty).
btw, i downloaded the tool from the above link, i went straight to option #6 - updated to ICS using the stock KDZ files.
----the option to the change recovery using nzflash didnt work, cannot detect usb devices. went straight to #6 and didnt bother the other options. i have no idea what other options does or their purpose.

Most features in this tool requires a rooted phone. If all you want is to update your stock ROM, you don't need to flash a recovery (and you won't be able to either if your phone is not rooted).
Using nvflash, you have to unplug your phone between operations. Only one nvflash operation can be performed at a time.

Not true. You can nvflash a recovery without your phone being rooted.

I think of you dont understand the Manual or the Simplicity of this Tool you should not use it anyway. some basic skills in Android are needed. I may sound harsch but thats what it is. If you dont understand than maybe you brick your Phone and then its the developer to blame... Seen this tons of times... sadly. :crying:

You need to be on v20a, you can use the hacked kdz method as that's what I did. Then in dialer type in 3845#*880# then go to version info and look at software version. If it says euro xxx you can unlock if it doesn't then you most likely can't.

If you just follow the instructions, two things can happend:
Unlock the bootloader, or not...
Allways able to go back to V10x or remain in V20A.
Now, if you start to mess with other commands and files and programs (like nvflash), than you might have a problem.
