I thought we had a couple of bricks already? This is 99.9% sure to return bricked devices to stock, and it needs to be tested on a brick.

Thanks Dlev7 . It should work...just hard to find gutsy people who made a boo-boo i guess .

yeah infuse buyers seem to be the cautious type, or the type that never modded a phone before. if i have an accident i promise to test for you, im not doing it on purpose though

If its just a stock package, why is a bricked phone required? Shouldn't any device work?

[REQUEST] Looking for guinea pigs to flash rom - LG UI

I am going to be putting together a flash for a P999 version of the just released P990 2.3.4 rom with LG UI. I need a few guinea pigs willing to try out the flash and see if their phones boot up and to tell me what is not working. If you are interested please PM me your email address so I can send you a download link. I will not publicly post it until I know it at least boots. It most likely will be a day or two until it is ready to be flashed.

Yes, you should be able to go into recovery as long as you installed CWM Recovery using the NVFlash method and NOT Rom Manager. You could then restore a backup. I always suggest making a current backup before flashing any rom to your phone just in case ...
Being rooted doesn't matter as I will pre-root the new rom. The only thing that matters is that CWM Recovery is installed on the physical recovery partition on the device.
Got about three or four guineas already. You are welcome to join. I will be putting the first attempt together tomorrow. It is almost 3 a.m. in the morning where I live (ICT timezone).

excited for this, I like having a custom UI, so this will be neat... I wish I could test for you, but waiting on a call. Very glad to hear you have some testers and are putting forth effort to this rom for us.

this is going to be like a 2.3.4 stock rom like the one with the lg-95? no changes to the baseband right? just making sure

We don't have the capability to change the baseband. It is not possible to do by flashing a rom on this device. This will be stock LG 2.3.4 with LG UI and colorization by LG.

ok. will it have tmo wifi calling? or you have to flash it individually like in the lg-95 case?

Version 1, which is uploading right now, won't have WiFi calling. Once I found out the rom boots and works I will make a flashable zip so TMO people can just add it to the rom.
Everyone who PM'd me. You will get a PM soon with download link. Please keep it private and do not post the link in any forum or website. I want to make sure it works before making download links public.
Based on what I saw in the rom I believe version 1 should boot and work. The rom was almost identical to the P999 rom except for apps, UI skinning, etc. I did an MD5 on some files and they were the same.
Upload should be done in 30 minutes.
No more testers please. I have enough for now. Thanks to everyone who PM'd me.

working clockworkmod recovery .apk

ok guys here is an .apk to get cwm recovery onto the moto atrix2. make sure your rooted and then just download the .apk and install. AS USUAL USE AT YOUR OUN RISK! this is for experimental use only if you dont know what your doing plz dont use you can and most likely will brick your device!!!

Quick question to the OP. Have you modified this to work with the A2? If not we've been down this road already and there will be consequences if you try to perform a recovery from a backup with this

We have asked developer nitroglycerin33 to make us our own bootstrap that works and here is the link

Man I'm just trying to save you some work. Please take a look at the links I posted and we have our own bootstrap listed in the second link that was modified specifically for the A2
Take a look in the bootloader unlock post that will catch you up on where we are right now. Not trying to discourage you as we can use all the help we can get.
Glad to have you here and knowing you are willing to lend a hand I just don't wanna see some noobs using this thinking everything is working and end up bricking their phones because right now we have NO way of getting back to stock with a FXZ yet.

i'm with you i'm going to edit my post.

Guys as JRW 28 has said.
This has been tried and done with fatal issues. Until nytroglcerin33 gets the official CWM package updated, there is not much I would try with this, we have done backups and restores, as well as attempted a flash or two with NO SUCCESS.
I am not trying to be a pain here, but there are some of us who have been working on these things for almost two months since this phone came out, try a search in the Atrix2 section next time as there is a thread already about this, and until we get the bootloader unlocked we are going to have very limited abilities on this phone to develop, if you want to help out someplace go jump in there.

No worries, that was not aimed at anyone, it was more in genral, so that anyone who reads this sees that this is a very slippery slope right now, we have had at least 2 people that we know of, who bricked their phones using the / a similar method that was in the OP here.

I wouldn't say I have had no success... I'm able to backup and restore system and data using that atrix 2 recovery. In fact, the bionic one worked as well but I only used it a couple of times.
I've been using it to go back and forth between 55.11.16 and 55.13.16, 8 or 9 flashes so far without a brick.
inb4 next flash bricks my phone

I think we should have our moderator swoop in and sticky the important things. It seems were not getting much love from him around here. It's kind of an annoyance to me that topics fall back a page or two then are reintroduced as a new thread a week later. Just saying.

testers needed for rom *need 3*

Well title says it all, im doing a blind build and i got one person testing for me but i think it'll be faster for all to just get a few more on board. If you want to help hit me up on here. First 3 will be taken if they meet the following criteria's
Needed from testers:
1. Must know how to Odin back to stock (aka if you soft brick you can get back to stock) the current build loads up just fine.
2. Must have efs backup ( you never know when flashing)
3. Must know how to do logcat ( adb logcat > logcat.txt)
4. Lastly, actually want to to test long term, like with updates and stuff I put into it.
Of course the people who decide to test I ask don't leak anything til it's ready
I have 3 roms for the SGS4G, 1 for the LG and well working on this one so I know what I am doing If you do decide to help I will have an update rom this weekend unless you want to test current build.
Well let the fun begin!

I know I posted really late and not alot of people have seen it but if you guys don't want me to try its cool just let the mods know to close this.

Hey, man. Just thought you should know that out of curiosity, I took the firmware folder from the Epic 4G CM 6.2 rom and cooked it into my Epic SK4G rom.
No issues so far. I know it may be no big deal but I wanted to share that. Maybe bhundven can take a look at the kernel?
EDIT: It is no big deal.... it's just Froyo 2.2.1. Forget it. Goddammit.

I would have kept my mouth shut if he fixed the op. Either [PORT][WIP] CM6 for the sidekick 4G or even [PORT][PRE-ALPHA] CM6 for the sidekick 4G. BETA is reserved for working ROMs/PORTS. This was obviously an epic fail.
He's also stated before he does not know how to modify kernels. In order to port cm6 you will need some kernel hacking skillz.

He also said this form of porting was documented to work, which it didn't in this particular case. And if you've forgotten, he can't test it. His SK4G is with bhundven. So, he couldn't have known that it was pre-alpha material.

I'm pretty sure it took a month or less to boot CM6 on the SK4G, bootable.
Not +5 months.

Exactly my point I was trying to make.

That all depends on what he had to go through those last 5+ months. Assuming everything was peachy, yes, a month is feasible. But say, you had court battles and other stuff to worry about, do you think you could throw something workable together in a month? Doubt it. And if you say you can, prove it. Otherwise, you're full of yourself. I'm not gonna try myself, because like I have said before, i've only done small stuff and I know my own limitations. But by all means, go ahead and ridicule someone who is making a conscious effort and not just sitting back and waiting for someone else to do the work.
Btw, Happy Holidays/Merry Christmas to the both of you, despite your overinflated egos.

What 5+ month are you talking about? Phone was sent to Bhundven at the beginning of october, so it's 3-, not 5+. And yes, life's more important than ROMs.
