How to get your phone back on the upgrade path...
If you have been flashing things (and who hasn't) when the official update comes out you will want to be on the correct builds so that you can take it. I present you with the method that will get you back and allow you to take any update.
This has only been tested on Windows 7 (32/64)
1) Download this fastboot file moto-fastboot-win32.zip
2) Download this Zip (Contains both System and webtop images) Download Now
3) Create a folder on Desktop named "Stock" <----- can be anything you want
4) Place the contents of both zip files in the folder named Stock
5) Put phone in Fastboot mode, connect to computer
6) Open a command terminal and go to the Stock folder (cd Desktop/Stock)
7) type this command in the terminal window and wait for the flashing to finish before going to the next line.
----> moto-fastboot.exe flash webtop grfs.img (This file will be flashed in 4 parts)
----> moto-fastboot.exe flash system system.img (This file will be flashed in 2 parts)
----> moto-fastboot.exe reboot
************************************************** ****************
Your boot image (kernel) and radio files will never go back to stock !!!
************************************************** ****************
Your phone is now back on stock (well the parts that matter anyways) Congratulations.
Next post will tell you how to root your device!!
Now I get this:
fastboot flash mode (s) (boot failure)
battery is low
cannot program
transfer mode:
USB Connected
invalid cg otv (cg: system): Invalid sp data
invalid cg hab (cg system, status: 0x0035)
invalid cg otv (cg: system)
Looks like I need a proper webtop.img and system.img?
Perfect example of why you should read the whole thread before trying to apply a mod/tweak/update to your phone if you don't know what you're doing. Or did you not realize the forum that thread was posted in was for the Droid Bionic? That site doesn't even have an Atrix 2 forum so why you would attempt any of the mods for those other devices to yours is beyond me. Bet you won't do that again
Nope wont do that again. Thought I got there from an A2 link saying the root worked. Anyways, any help would be great.

Like I said, perfect example of why you should read the whole thread first! The very last comment in that posts says "the next post will tell you how to root your device." That should have been a hint that what you were about to do was not what you wanted to do.
Sorry bud, no way to recover the phone at this point.
Ao there are no system images available? Is it something that will come available with time maybe?

No sir, that's one of the things we're waiting for to start flashing stuff.....the other is the actual ability to flash stuff, lol.

If you bought it at Best Buy in the last 30 days run, don't walk, to Best Buy and give them $9.95 for a month of coverage. Then they will replace the phone, even bricked
Unless you take it in and return it you have a paper weight for the time being. I would take it in myself, the worst they can do is say no.

OK so I got the xml file to load in RSD Lite after redownloading it. However it will not flash on the phone. I get this message.
Failed flashing process 2/15 flash cdt.bin "cdt.bin" ->Phone returned FAIL ;phone connected
How are you getting the phone into RSD protocol mode? I tried doing it the same way as my OG ATRIX and don't get the option?
Nevermind I take it you're using AP fastboot mode? Went and dug around the RZR forums to see how they were doing it. You do have all the current Motorola drivers installed? I had problems with my OG ATRIX and had to uninstall them and reinstall them before getting it to work properly.
Null 10 char
Should be the same steps as the bionic.
Pretty cut and dry, make sure you're plugging it directly into your motherboard's usb ports.
It could simply not be compatible or signed with different keys...
Installation
1.Install the Motorola Mobile Drivers
2.Install RSD Lite 5.5
3.Make sure your Motorola Droid Bionic is powered on and backed up.
◦Alternatively, boot into AP Fastboot mode by powering down (or pulling battery), then press and hold the volume down button while powering on. From there, continue with Step 4.
4.Plug your Motorola Droid Bionic into a back USB port on your computer.
◦Front USB ports are often unreliable when it comes to power levels. They should not be used for flashing.
5.Run “RSD Lite” on your computer
6.Press the “. . .” button next to the box labeled “Filename”
7.Browse and open the FXZ file
8.Wait for the program to read the file, then choose “Uncompress And Start Flashing”
9.Now, the device will slowly flash the FXZ file.
10.When flashing completes, the device will reboot into recovery and install the two radio images.
11.Congratulations! You’ve restored your Motorola Droid Bionic

at this point I have to say it does not work. I have tried from different usbs and get the same results. failed. It is certainly an easy enough process. A am guessing it is not a compatable image? dont know. I also tried just loading teh system.img and grfs.img with moto-fastboot in a dos window and no go their either. Keep waiting for good image I guess.

Were you coming from 2.3.5 or 2.3.6?
If coming from 2.3.6 did you have the modified XML and other files that allowed you to flash the 2.3.5 FXZ? Without that modified XMl ppl would get errors while flashing
Yes, I will post the links here that way you won't look far for them. Like I said, this has worked flawlessly for me, should work for you too.
yes I've the modified XML and was working for me, but after I tried to flash it to 5.5.1-EDEM-27-MEARET_cfc.xml the at&t didn't flash with me at all tried too many times and I don't wanna lose the battery to get low

I'm on 2.3.5 and attempted to update to 2.3.6, but received the update failed. From what I understand, that can be related to deleting of bloatware. I can only assume at this point since I purchased it from Craigslist.
I attempted to use the .bat flash, but now get a out of system memory error when trying to download the update. A factory reset throws me right back into a fastboot....odd. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1539167&page=2
Thanks.
Here you are. Just EXTRACT and point RSD LITE to the XML file inside the extracted folder. Happy flashing
This will restore your atrix 2 back to 2.3.5 even if you are on 2.3.6 it has worked flawlessly for me

Thanks for the information. I was able to flash without issue, but still the same result.
I then attempted to perform the 2.3.6 update and he says not enough system memory and then says to perform a factory reset. I do that and it immediately go into fastboot with an error.
I am just stumped on this one. I especially do not understand the 'not enough system memory'. I've tried everything, but a no go. The phone functions fine after booting up. Just no 2.3.6 update....grrrr.
Any ideas?

Sorry this week has been really busy. Try this:
Unzip the .zip file that you are trying to flash (not the Indian one, the one the eL_MeXiCaNo linked you to). Now use a text editor like Notepad to edit the file "InlineFlashing_edison_5.5.175.16_cfc_p3_APBP_CID285.xml" that is inside of the folder you just unzipped. Delete the next four lines after you see "<steps interface="AP">". They should look like this:
Code:
<step operation="flash" partition="mbm" filename="allow-mbmloader-flashing-mbm.bin" MD5="2F5211B8011CBA58290D7B51B56F8DFB" />
<step operation="reboot-bootloader" />
<step operation="flash" partition="mbmloader" filename="mbmloader.bin" MD5="9D1958ED3F5E971FF079B195E338BA86" />
<step operation="flash" partition="mbm" filename="mbm.bin" MD5="DA1A78B87D8FE6D8DA6DE7CA2C5B0A7E" />
Now save the file and close Notepad. Next, open up RSD. Tell it to flash the .xml file that you just edited and see what happens. It might still error out but just post the screenshot. Good luck!

It sounds like you tried to flash an international version previous to this.
What you need to do is make sure you've unzipped the fxz, then open the "
InlineFlashing_edison_5.5.175.16_cfc_p3_APBP_CID285.xml" file with notepad, and delete the following lines:
Code:
<step operation="flash" partition="mbm" filename="allow-mbmloader-flashing-mbm.bin" MD5="2F5211B8011CBA58290D7B51B56F8DFB" />

Ok, i did that and it worked. But after the flash process it sends me to the recovery image (the one with the triangle where you do the fatory reset). After it went to bootloop, in the status bar it said "please power up manually this device" even when the c/p where on. So i turned it off, and then turned it on again to the fastboot screen. The status screen changed sayng the process was finished and the resul bar said "PASS". But nothing changed.
P.S: i have the american version of this cellphone and nothing works, i cant delete aplications and the cellphone reboots randomly and factory resets doesn't work with my device

It worked very well all functions are restored, later updaed to 2.3.6 using OTA over wifi.
I only have a question that what part will not be flashed after deleting those lines and what effect it may have on the phone?
This recovery is CWM for the One SV. It is fully working and has no problems. All variants are supported below

now run `repo sync` and wait for this to finish. It will take a long time
With any luck, you now have the source. Your computer should already be set up to build so just do the following commands
. build/envsetup.sh
now you will want to lunch the right device (see the download section as a guide)
lunch cm_k2_cl-userdebug
and finally the make command is as follows
make -j5 recoveryimage
at the end you will see a welcoming path to your new recovery. Flash it in fastboot or with dd and enjoy!

Hi;
The recovery file is not there. Can you reload it?
Sorry Simon, recovery doesn't boot.
Neither the k2u nor the k2ul.
k2u -> boots constantly into android, not recovery.
k2ul -> hangs on splash screen.
bkcokota's cwm works totally fine, but it has the framework bug.
This bug fixed and we have a stable CWM. But i know, devs do not work on others build.
I am going to do twrp then. Once those are confirmed booting ill use the TWRP folder and remove anything non twrp from them
PS- The issue with his build is a lack of source (problem one), the partitions are different (two), the devices have different code names which messes with the flashing of source built roms (problem three) and its not ready for 4.3 (4)

Hello Friends,
Just want to share another GUIDE/MOD this time for NON-ROOT users - ENABLING Apps for PEN Window without Root.
Without root, the only way to add more apps for Pen Window is modifying the app yourself or getting developers to add pen window support to their apps. But it involves a bit of knowledge in decompiling, editing, recompiling and resigning apps with apktool, jarsigner or some similar tool like Apk Manager, Apk Multitool and a lot others. I won't go into a tutorial about decompilation. I was a noob once and I did my best to search and learn about this stuff so if you are interested then a few google or xda search would give you tons of links on how to decompile/recompile apk files.
TOOLS:
1. Knowledge of modding apk files
2. ApkManager or other similar tools
3. Notepad++ or something similar
GUIDE:
1. Decompile apk file using ApkManager or your tool of choice.
2. Open the AndroidManifest.xml file of the decompiled apk file using Notepad++ or your editor of choice. Below is a sample AndroidManifest.xml file.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="mobi.xperiacle.PenWindowTest"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0" >
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="16"
android:targetSdkVersion="17" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
<activity
android:name="mobi.xperiacle.PenWindowTest.MainActivity"
android:label="@string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
3. Look for the acivity which has "<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />"
and add "<category android:name="com.samsung.android.intent.category.PENWINDOW_LAUNCHER" />" below it.
Below is the same AndroidManifest.xml above with the change highlighted in RED.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="mobi.xperiacle.PenWindowTest"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0" >
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="16"
android:targetSdkVersion="17" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
<activity
android:name="mobi.xperiacle.PenWindowTest.MainActivity"
android:label="@string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
[COLOR="Red"]<category android:name="com.samsung.android.intent.category.PENWINDOW_LAUNCHER" />[/COLOR]
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
4. Look for "</application>" which is the closing tag of the <application...> node. Then add
"<meta-data android:name="com.samsung.android.sdk.multiwindow.penwindow.enable" android:value="true" />" above it. Below is the same AndroidManifest.xml file above with the all changes in RED.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="mobi.xperiacle.PenWindowTest"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0" >
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="16"
android:targetSdkVersion="17" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
<activity
android:name="mobi.xperiacle.PenWindowTest.MainActivity"
android:label="@string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
[COLOR="Red"]<category android:name="com.samsung.android.intent.category.PENWINDOW_LAUNCHER" />[/COLOR]
</intent-filter>
</activity>
[COLOR="Red"]<meta-data android:name="com.samsung.android.sdk.multiwindow.penwindow.enable" android:value="true" />[/COLOR]
</application>
</manifest>
5. Recompile and Resign apk file and push to your phone. If you are using ApkManager that is all done in one go with option 14 while phone is connected.
6. Have FUN! A COFFEE would be Nice. he he
THANKS to @soloilmeglio for testing and making sure it works before I write and share this guide.
Great news for all non-rooted gn3 eh eh.... great work as always

So is it possible for you to do an app that automaticly does the magic?
Like some drag and drop .apk to make it work on penwindow (and why not in multiwindow too?)
Thanks, it works
I got it work only in one app (tried for ~5 apps)
Dunno if the problem is using APK Multi-Tool instead of ApkManager? And I believe problem is in .apk or tool.. Not in your guide
And why I can't find those lines already in app that has multiwindow, pen window or both already? How those are made then?
But thanks anyway very useful guide
ps. Didn't try to only add pen window, but multiwindow too at same time

Oh man this is such great news..... if I knew how to decompile and recompile apks.
I've downloaded the tool but it's way above my knowledge.
Will wait to see if some-one can design an app to do it automatically as I'm NOT rooting my N3....

It's not that hard really, it took a while for me but even I managed to make it work
If you got Java JDK and ADB installed (Google how to install if not)
Google APK Multi-Tool, you'll find a link to some topic on XDA where is download link (and instructions how to use it)
When you got all ready and multi tool running, type 24 and enter, choose your apk file (if you have that apk on computer and moved to Multi-Tool apk edit folder) and enter again. Then type 9 and enter to decompile, go to projects folder and edit AndroidManifest.xml. Then delete that app from your phone if already installed, connect your phone to pc using USB cable and then type 15 in Multi-Tool and hit enter. Now it should compile, sign and install that app to your phone, if everything went right.
Sorry for messy message but I'm at work. Ask if somethings not clear to you

before i spend hours trying to figure out the apk tool - i wanted to ask if anyone has applied the penwindow/multiwindow tags to Waze apk and if it works. In city driving waze is critical to be open but it is waste of screen real estate to see just waze. i would like whatsapp or music apps open and visible too.
I Will be try later!

What apps have you all tested this on? I'd like to try it on a confirmed app. I did this with one app already and the app runs normally but it is not showing up in my pen window list when I bring it up. I also tried setting it up for multiwindows but I don't know how to test that feature. Is there a way to bring up multiwindows without having to do it automatically? For example if I'm browsing on chrome and I want to pull up a dictionary app in the second window, is that possible and if so how?

Allright..
If you made it right, app should show in penwindow menu and for multiwindow in the list when you open "multiwindow bar"
What program you used for editing .apk?
I did it this way (some apps still didn't work, but not sure why is that)
I downloaded APK Multi-Tool from bottom of first post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695701
Then: Enter 24 (Set current project) --> 9 (Decompile apk) --> Then I deleted the app from my phone --> Edited the AndroidManifest.xml --> 15 (compile apk / sign apk / install apk)
Now it install the app to phone
Okay then, there is typos in all post in this topic that should enable penwindow (at least didn't work for me before I corrected them)
If you watch close to (example those at first post) they got SPACE between "." and "P" --> "...category.(SPACE HERE)PENWINDOW..."
Same for another line "...multiwindow.(SPACE HERE)penwindow.enable"
APK Multi-Tool gave error to log and app didn't work before those SPACEs were removed.
Hmm.. When I was writing this post, I noticed that SPACE came there in post preview even it really wasn't in post?
It did same when I tried to put those lines in quote tags, so why is that?
Only way to get that one "automatic space" away from line was to put it in code tags
So try copying these to AndroidManifest.xml to enable both Penwindow and Multiwindow
Code:
<category android:name="com.samsung.android.intent.category.PENWINDOW_LAUNCHER" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.MULTIWINDOW_LAUNCHER" />
Code:
<meta-data android:name="com.samsung.android.sdk.multiwindow.penwindow.enable" android:value="true" />
<uses-library required="false" name="com.sec.android.app.multiwindow" />
<meta-data android:name="com.sec.android.support.multiwindow" android:value="true" />
<meta-data android:name="com.sec.android.multiwindow.DEFAULT_ SIZE_W" android:value="632.0dip" />
<meta-data android:name="com.sec.android.multiwindow.DEFAULT_ SIZE_H" android:value="598.0dip" />
<meta-data android:name="com.sec.android.multiwindow.MINIMUM_ SIZE_W" android:value="632.0dip" />
<meta-data android:name="com.sec.android.multiwindow.MINIMUM_ SIZE_H" android:value="598.0dip" />

That's exactly what my problem was. Fixing the spaces caused the app to show up for both my Penwindow and my multiwindow. Thank you so much. I don't have the luxury of rooting and this was exactly what I needed for doing what I need for this phone for.:good:

Has anyone done this with Spotify? I've successfully modded about 6 apps now but the .apk I recompiled and signed for Spotify has "parsing" errors when I try to installing it. Anyone else with better luck?
Hi.
I'll teach right now how to get ANY USB DEVICE working in iNew V1.
Maybe this works for another MTK6582 devices... I don't know. Try it. The worse that can happens is an enormous amount of nothing, nothing at all...
Firstly I must say that I'm not responsible for damages in your devices.
If you do this way, all gonna be ok.
1- Root your device using KingRoot app (google it)
2- Using an app of your preference, add the following lines into the given files
In this file: /system/etc/permissions/android.hardware.usb.host.xml
Add these lines:
<permissions>
<feature name="android.hardware.usb.host" />
</permissions>
In file: /system/etc/permissions/handheld_core_hardware.xml
Add this line:
<feature name="android.hardware.usb.host" />
3- Reboot your device.
4- Buy an OTG Y CABLE, or do yourself one (as I did, very very very easy). There's so much DIY tutorials. (google it too)
https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/...kjVfRSRaow08v6j-Z9OpLvpUm3x6ok1WWIntw02m5NObA
iNew V1 comes with a kernel that supports OTG. That's the point... There is no necessary compile another kernel.
Worked for me, I can ensure to you.
