Which version to install? JBBL or Normal? - Motorola Atrix HD

hi guys,
i don't know which version to install in my atrix HD, i got a Cyanogen M7 at the moment installed on it. I've read that's about the bootloader i have, but i don't know how to check it. Can you help me?

You probably have the JB bootloader as the only other bootloader is ICS and I don't think M7 will run on an ICS bootloader.

well... i'm not sure, but when i bought the atrix it was running JB 4.1.1 .... so i suppose i'm an idiot LOL

so... ehmmmm whenever i don't have a JB bootloader, what hapens if i try to flash a JBBL rom?

Many older ROMs will run on newer bootloaders. If you don't have the correct bootloader for the ROM, the install will fail with an assert error.

You have the jellybean bootloader bro

thanks guys!

ALL AHDs have the JB BL b/c we have not been upgraded to KK yet.

If you want an updated version of CM on your device, you need the ones built for JB bootloader: https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=moto_msm8960_jbbl

Well, ur missing out on TONS OF FEATURES on the 3 newer versions. Get the phone repaired and then update. The issue might not be as prominent on 4.1.2, but I can assure u it will still be there. This is a hardware issue and downgrading the firmware isn't exactly a permanent solution.
Yeah, trust me, its a hardware issue. Best to send it in and get fixed. I'm happy I did. They replace now with the same omni sensor that is in the M8...makes sense to get it fixed because it will just get worse over time.

touchscreen drivers were updated in 2.xx +, so if you're trying a 1.xx (Android 4.1.2) ROM on firmware 2.xx+ then touchscreen won't work.

Update, I just found a 4.3 Rom Stock with Goodies that worked for me, did S-off and unlocked my phone to Use any Sim Card
Regarding the Touchscreen I guessed It had to be something like that, because prior to that I flashed an old TWRP recovery and also got Stuck.
Here's what I Used:
-HTDEV to unlock bootloader
-Flashed this Recover
philz_touch_6.26.6-m7spr.img
Relocked bootloader
-Flashed this Rom
Stock with Goodies
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2301672
-Did the Firewater S-off method
http://firewater-soff.com/instructions/ (the Weaksauce File)
-Unlocked bootloader using same token used above
-Flashed the HtcOMADM_SPCS.zip from recovery (for this and for any other Flashing I used a USB OTG Dongle)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2586704 (for me the first method was enough)
And that's It, Have a fully Rooted, fully unlock and S-off HTC M7Sprt
I hope this helps anyone

I have the opposite problem. On 4.1.2 sense my camera has horrible quality and purple tint. On 4.4.2 GPE my camera is perfect. I don't think downgrading will help you out. Things with the camera could get worse.

But I have a doubt, I read somewhere that a sprint one thats unlocked to work on gsm carries will only work on sense roms, and if I flash a GPE will I still be able to use my phone on any GSM carrier since I'm not in sprint.
Can anyone help me out..??

You are aware that you resurected 2 years old thread, right? It doesn't matter what ROM you flash, if you have 1.61 h-boot, only way to s-off your phone is sunshine which is not free

[Q] Updating HTC One

Hi!
I've got 2 questions about updating HTC One:

I don't understand what you are asking! There may or may not be a KitKat 4.4.4 since Lollipop is due to come out soon and HTC stated the HTC One will get it in 90 days of release.
You can update it with S-ON, you just need stock recovery and stock rom. Read this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52894276&postcount=9

Don't downgrade or you will likely brick. And don't flash other carrier firmware either, or you could have other issues.
Why would you want to unroot? If it's for warranty repair, There's no point... They will see you've unlocked your bootloader no matter what you do.

I'd just want confirmation from others that flashing the EU version worked for them first. If you flash it and end up with issues, you'll be stuck if there's no version for your device. Again, with no downgrading.

umm... naah... although there is a way to remove the warning sign in the boot...
in the moto x, its impossible to relock the bootloader
You can relock the bootloader, but it will show as "relocked".... Not locked as it originally was.

Any 5.x ROM for Locked-Bootloaders

Hi,
My Xperia SP has a locked bootloader, and cannot be unlocked.
I have rooted the device already.
I am looking for a ROM which is Android 5.0 or above, which I can use on a locked bootloader.
I saw VanirAOSP but that looks to no longer be available, the 5.1..1 download link just hangs.
Appreciate if anyone can advice me of one.
Also, I do need the camera and the phone to be working, I was reading on some Cynogenmod based ones but read that the phone didn't work, which would be no use to me.
Thanks

[Q] Custom ROM + Fully Rooted.

Hey,
I would like some help from you guys.
It's been a while since I put a custom rom on my previous phone.
So if possible I would like a comprehensive explanation.
Right now I have Emui 3.1 installed on my P7 L10.
I would like to install a custom rom but I'm not sure I got my bootloader unlocked.
If possible I would like to know how to unlock the bootloader and install a custom rom with full root.
I did some research already on the internet but all the explanations are so short.
The rom I want to have installed on my P7 L10 is the following:

I'm afraid you will not be able to install that rom, since it is meant for emui 3.0 not 3.1
The only working custom ROM for lollipop is the Miui rom and that's it. All the other Roms are based on kitkat.

It is possible and there are many guides out there which tell you how to unlock your bootloader. Just don't try to flash that rom while on lollipop.

I know, but I think the guides are not detailed enough of the download links are not working.
Just ignore that it says b805, because it works with all of lollipop firmwares.
