[Q] Atrix 4G can i get ICS OTA if i rooted? - General Questions and Answers

ok , so i rooted my Atrix 4g running 2.3.4 . i didnt think i was going to get ICS so i was like ok ...and did it.
however now that i hear that it might come out on the atrix and that because moto was bought by google the chances are higher i was wondering if the root will stop the OTA update and if so is there a way to fix this?????
Thanks for the help i do appreciate it.

If you go back to the stock rom, it will not stop the update.

If you accept the update, you will lose root. If you want to root again, you will have to wait until a root solution is figured out again. And the fact that the atrix is an older phone and the dev community is shrinking, you may not get root again at all.

however accepting the update wont brick my phone? And yes I know its an older phone but im going to wait till quad core phones come out because my phone still can hold up to most duel core devices . and it has the finger sensor. Also I should mention I am still running regular 2.3.4 with moto blur because im one of those odd balls who like it .

Then go with the update...I don't know what you are expecting..blur is still blur, so you won't see many UI changes..

Well its rooted now...and I heard that if you root your phone and OTA update you can brick it and that is what I dont want

It is different for every phone. Most phones won't even receive the OTA notification if rooted.

ugh <.< well if it does actually happen ill figure out exactly how to UN root it and then get ICS and wait till someone discovers a root for that. im sure someone will.

I wouldn't hold my breath for ICS even if Google and Motorola finalize everything by June.
The phone is going on a year old and the ATRIX 2 is probably not going to get the update to ICS in my mind.
I would keep your root and if it does come out then throw a custom rom on and you will be happy because you have ICS and root

How to revert Atrix back to Stock ROM Hi Guys and girls, I have put together this guide to help anyone who decides to install a custom ROM (Like i did), but dislikes it or finds issues and wants to revert the phone back to stock again.
I recently installed 'Gingerblur' and had issues with: GPS dropping signal frequently Security functions not working at all Dialpad not responding when used during a call Refused to set date to UK format (DD/MM/YY) Work and play dock not displaying screens as it should Tricked phone into thinking it was a AT&T handset (My handset is on Orange UK) And a few other niggles.
Please note, I am not saying that everyone will experience all or any of these faults, but I had them and it ruined the enjoyment of the phone.
Ok, so here is a list of what you will need:
Up to date drivers USB and PC Charging Drivers - Motorola Mobility, Inc. USA RSDlite 5.3.1 RSDLite5.3.1.msi 7-zip 7-Zip Correct Orange SBF file (Select correct ROM for your network) Atrix Firmwares Superthread (Official Firmware Team of M3) - xda-developers
And you will need the USB lead that came with your handset to guarantee compatability.
Once you have installed the programs above, download your SBF file to a location you can find it on your hard drive.
Once the SBF file is downloaded, open 7-zip and locate the SBF file (name will read something like OLYEM_xxxxxxxxxx.sbf) and extract it to your desktop.
Open RSDlite and select the extracted file, and the 'file properties' box on the right will display all the details about the file.
Turn off your handset (or pull the battery) and press the UP volume button and POWER button together, and hold them both until the phone displays 'Starting RSD protocol support'
Connect the handset to your computer using the USB lead, and the RSDlite should display your handset details. It will either read 'NS olympus' or 'SE olympus'. This is fine, and is evidence that the phone is recognised.
On the RSDlite program, click 'Start' and find something to do for 15 mins.
The SBF flash will go through a number of sequences, and your handset will go on and off as the files are written. You may also hear the PC making the connected/disconnected noises for the USB, but ignore them. Don't mistakenly disconnect the handset or you could brick it.
At the end of the process, you will notice that the phone is turned OFF, and RSDlite is instructing you to manually turn the handset on. Turn it on and it should look the same as it did when you turned it on for the first time.
Please remember.... you are fully responsible for any changes you make to your phone's firmware, and I am only offering a guide to help, not a guarantee that it will help. This is a condensed version of the help I received from das8nt, and it worked for me.
If this has helped you in any way, then please feel free to click on the 'like' button.

wow thank you thiss will come in handy when i want ICS

Wait for CM9
Instead of waiting for Moto to release ICS, just install CM9 when a decent Atrix rom is available, my bet is that it wont be too long.

Still waiting on a decent truly stable non alpha or beta Tom. Any ideas? Or news in the wire

quick question i want ics on my atrix but im using tmobile if i revert back to stock and update will i lose use of my tmobile?

Prob not.... the unlock I don't think has anything to do with the OS. AND if it does you can call and get it unlocked again .( on the off chance)

Research. Do some.
Answers are out there. Trust the joker.
Ps. Trust me, your not the first to brick. There is a user that has patiently sat with a soft brick for over a week.
If you did what should of been done before you had a chance to brick there is always a way.
Debug enabled?
Rooted? (In some cases not even necessary to be fixed)
ADB. Almost anything can be done with adb.

Hey there, aforementioned bricked guy reporting in.
Check out the Odin flashable stuff in another thread; that may be your best bet right now. If you can't get into recovery as usual, pop the battery, plug in usb, hold volume up and down, and out the battery is while holding those buttons.
If all else fails, AT&T will replace your phone for free if you got it on contract. I was worried about them denying me because I had a Captivate kernel (it displayed Galaxy S i897 on the splash screen) but they took it back regardless and I got a new phone out of it. Just play dumb with them just in case. ;D
For future reference, don't do anything to your phone just yet that isn't in the development forum. This is not a Galaxy S phone. You'll risk bricking it if you get too ahead of yourself and current development for the device.

try heimdall. there is a windows version. post results.
http://www.glassechidna.com.au/products/heimdall/
you will need the visual c++ redistributable package as well
this is like odin but you will need 7zip to extract the phone and csc files. you will also need the bootloaders and pit file if you repartition which i believe are in the extra files .zip lost1 posted
i have no luck also with heimdall i this there is problem with the ROM file and there is now ROM except the one posted by lost1. and body can get me a new ROm please that will be my last try
thanx
I never got heimdall the work either.
To be honest, if you did what I did, I'm almost positive an easy fix without much previous knowledge of Android is next to non-existent at this current point. Either there's something wrong with the files posted or we both destroyed it beyond what anyone here can help with atm.
It may be easier to return it, play dumb, obtain a shiny new Infuse and know to play it a little smarter this time. ;D

Hi ,
i tried all the ways to get this phone back but like i said there something wrong with the rom file because i went back and tried to use odin one click and it start to download the file and then stopped with error and after that the phone went dead no life at all and i gave up after a week of try, i went and play the dumb game and got another one. thanx for the advise and tthanx for everybody who tried to help
I have used the jig and it works fine. however, if he is getting the phone and pc with yellow sign between them, that means when he ran odin he selected re-partition. Dont select that one. you can still re odin with the phone and pc with yellow sign between them. download mode after doing that again

USB not working, 2.3.5 won't install

Good morning all, I have two seperate issues.
1. My USB is no longer being recognized by my Mac, so I can't unroot, thus making customer service a non-option.
2. Neither the manual 2.3.5 nor the OTA 2.3.5 will install to my device, resulting in the android with the exclamation mark screen.
My phone is rooted, not running a custom ROM, but running netarchy's kernel. The problem is that I can't update OTA because my phone is rooted and I can't unroot my phone because USB storage is no longer recognized. Thoughts?

Hmm.... can you try flashing a different rom just to get usb access?
I had that problem once where usb could not get recognized on any computer, neither usb debugging. I actually got it fixed by Samsung, but I have a feeling your issue can be fixed.
So if flashing a custom rom gets you usb access, then you can easily unroot from there. If that doesnt work, try to flash a different kernel.
Going to give custom rom access a shot. I may need a USB free unroot solution though, so that Samsung will fix it.

Yep, just try that and see.
If not, try a different kernel...
If that doesnt work, then you might need to contact samsung lol

CM7 nightlies don't give me USB access, nor do different kernels. Going to nandroid and do a factory reset. Maybe then the OTA 2.3.5 will install and break root, allowing me to give Samsung an unrooted phone to repair.
**** me.
Well do you get the ota even though you are rooted? If so, idk if it will break root.
I do, but when I restart to install, it freezes.

[Q] Rooting updated GB Infuse

Okay...
So I accidentally dropped my phone, and it was a TOTAL loss. It would not even power back on. I received the replacement phone today and followed through with the GB update via Kies Mini. Now when I attempt to root the phone, Superoneclick stops responding. Any suggestions?
Check out the threads in the dev forum for info on how to root. You will need to flash a rooted kernel.
I've attempted to root by several different methods, and no matter how many times, or which method I use, it will not root. I made sure that the phone was checked for USD debugging and for unknown resources. Anyone have any suggestions?
Edit: My apologies, as I thought that I posted the thread in the Q&A section where it is supposed to be.

If you want root back, you're gonna need to flash a rooted kernel through Odin. Currently Superoneclick doesn't work on GB. Hope this helps.

There is no root method for stock 2.3.6 yet... period..
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
you can root it but gasp, you wont be able to flash the "official" kernel back to it since we cant dump the kernel without root... but you can flash the kl2 leaked kernel to it (same thing) but with sdcard workarounds and voodoo lagfix you need to consider a few things and its alot to say, but why bother, just use the rogers root kernel with cwm to flash a yummy rom from the dev section...
as far as rooting it without a kernel replacement well good luck with that. i will likely make a rooted heimdall package in a few days but it will have the kernel from the leaked rom (same thing) if that scares anyone with their irrational rationalizations...
why heimdall? well the mac users need some love since samsung and att wont give it to them.. its more reliable that that crappy samsung software be it kies or odin. and with the package system introduced in version 1.3 it is idiot proof..
if you must have an odin version make it your self.

Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda premium
weve know this would be a problem for like a year when the rogers infuse came out.
the rogers method works but it's just so many considerations and annoyances to tell people how to do it problem free. you have to assume they can creaet a file to disable the lagfix before hand and that they can extract and compress another file and depending on the kernel they use to root it they may need to edit one charachter of text. it all easy stuff but it becomes a lengthy post explaining it and then the next guy doesnt read what you already answered. ill wait for source code and fully compatible kernels with cwm so we dont have to worry about the extra process of reverting to a stock kernel, till then im burnt out on saying the same thing over and over and over.

(SOLVED)[Q] how to tell if phone is already rooted.....

So I just picked up a skyrocket and I went to update OTA and it downloaded the update and when it went to restart to install the update the phone booted into clockwork. I wasnt able to find a thread for this specific device about it so I am asking here now. MOD if there is one please point me in the right direction. I did notice that there is no att bloatware on the device. Thanks.
Terminal editor, type su, press enter, see what happens.
Other clues: presence of Superuser app.
You have a custom recovery also which will need to be ODINed away.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
Yes, it does have superuser. As far as Terminal editor/ODINed i'll be honest I have no idea what you are talking about. First sammy device that I have had long enough to keep and want to keep. Use to HTC branded devices. But thank you I think it is rooted because of the superuser app.
Questions should be posted in Q&A. Moved.
Side note: I recommend you read a lot before you mess with it. Although this device seems to be very difficult to hardbrick misusing ODIN can lead to one.
Cheers
Go to market download root checker. Run it. If a super user prompt appears, that's a good sign.

Yes it does, superuser prompt comes up. I really would just rather have this back to completly stock running 2.3.6 until the 4.0 update rolls out. Not sure which is better. Rooted or unrooted????? Also am not sure if it has ODIN....I tried to boot into recovery to run ODIN3 and upgrade to 4.0.4 but when trying to power on into bootloader it just vibrates and will not boot until I release the volume up rocker. Other than curiosity the phone works and performs flawlessly. With superuser being installed and after installing titanium I am sure it is rooted. Still not sure what ODIN is (like I said used to the HTC branded phones and never cared about root) Thanks for all the information. Also I am not sure if I will be able to update to 4.0 when the OTA update rolls out, im not concerned about it being rooted or not (have not found a reason to have rooted yet). Anyone know if it can be updated OTA even though it has root?

[MB865][ICS][LEAK] ICS Leak on QA Server - 672.1.18.en.03 (08/28/2012)

A leak is available on QA server (master-qa1.blurdev.com) - if any one is active please download. Will upload the files shortly.
Update Files:
Update files will be available under the following folder -
https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0Bw_GlllN6a_WVHViaEZ5UWlFZ2M/edit
ICS.672.1.12.en.03.7z (07/08/2012)
ICS.672.1.13.en.03.7z (07/14/2012)
ICS.672.1.16.en.03.7z (07/29/2012)
ICS.672.1.17.en.03.7z (08/18/2012)
ICS.672.1.18.en.03.zip (08/27/2012)
Installing SEARET:
(You only need to do this, if you are not already SEARET version and ICS update is failing because of signature error or assertions)
(You need to use RSD Lite to flash these, these are NOT update .zip files flashable through any recovery mode)
Install the stock image file 5.5.1-EDEM-28-37-SEARET_cfc.xml.zip from here using Motorola RSD Lite (google around to figure out how to use the RSD Lite)
Once the installation is complete the phone should boot up in 55.28.37.MB865.AsiaRetail.en.03
If you are using an older version of SBF file (5.5.1-EDEM-27-SEARET_cfc.xml.zip), you'll need to use the "System Update" to update to the latest SEARET
Update to ICS:
(Before starting with these steps make sure to take a backup of your data using Titanium Backup or any other tool. Make sure your phone is charged at least to 50%)
Download the latest ICS update file from here (.7z)
Extract the 7z file - you should find .zip and a CRC file (mysteriously the CRC in this file never matches the image file)
Copy the .zip file onto your SD Card (.zip will be named after the version for which the update is applicable)
Boot into the stock recovery mode
Shut down by pressing the power button
Power up by holding down both the Vol Up + Down buttons and pressing power button
This should get you to "Boot Mode Selection Menu"
Press Vol Down button till you reach the "Recovery"
Select "Recovery" mode by pressing Vol Up button
This should take you to Recovery mode (little Android with a warning sign)
Once you are here, press both the Vol Up + Down buttons to get the recovery menu
Select the "apply update from sd card" option and choose the update file you just copied (use Vol Up/Down to move the selection and power button to select folder/file)
Let the patching/update complete (will take about 5-10min)
Reboot once the update complete (you should boot into ICS version)
Note:
If you are seeing signature errors or assertions that means either you do not have an MB865 or you have installed a custom recovery (such as ClockWork Mod) - installing SEARET using RSD Lite as mentioned above is the simplest way to fix this (though I'm sure there are right ways to do this, I'm not sure though)
You might want to do Wipe Data + Cache at the recovery before and after the ICS update - just to avoid any issues
Rooting ICS:
(You would need to root only if you want to remove any bloatware)
Download Razr4.0.4ROOT.zip from this post
Connect the phone with USB Debugging enabled (option is available under developer section in the settings)
Run the ROOT.bat file (phone will reboot a couple of times)
Warning:
System Update/Cheesecake/Auto-cheesecake will not work after this update (so, in other words you are stuck with this leak)
To update to the latest ICS or to find more leaks, you'll have to downgrade to SEARET (as far as I understand the updates/leaks will only apply to phones with SEARET version, update from previous leak to latest update is not possible)
UPDATE-1:
Update files will be available under the following folder -
https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0Bw_GlllN6a_WVHViaEZ5UWlFZ2M/edit
ICS.672.1.12.en.03.7z (07/08/2012)
UPDATE-2:
I was able to flash this successfully on my MB865 (Indian Version, Non AT&T) after flashing SEARET files from here and allowing the OTA update to 2.3.6. Flashed using the stock recovery. I was also able to successfully root using the Razr4.0.4ROOT.zip from this post.
UPDATE-2:
Updated benchmark results from Quadrant and AnTuTu.
UPDATE-3:
Updated the steps to be followed to flash this and the latest leak ICS.672.1.13.en.03.7z (as on 14th July 2012)
UPDATE-4:
Updated the latest leak ICS.672.1.16.en.03.7z (as on 29th July 2012)
UPDATE-5:
Updated the latest leak ICS.672.1.17.en.03.7z (as on 18th August 2012)
UPDATE-6:
Updated the latest leak ICS.672.1.18.en.03.zip (as on 27th August 2012)
huh?? wat wat wat?
Is this ICS update for international MB865?
Can AT&T apply this update?
I'm on a non AT&T MB865 (Indian Version).
But the updates are not going through for me, you might want to give it a try.
Try cheesecake with master-qa1.blurdev.com server.
ATM master-qa1 is empty (for the AT&T A2 at least) . Thanks a lot for the heads-up but what we really need is people using AT&T ROMs checking cheesecake like crazy until we find something like this except for AT&T.
This goes to show that Moto is still sometimes pushing updates to their servers, so we just have to keep on checking.
So I hope to look at this download soon it could be Us version..... Btw these updates are only up for a few min at a time ..... IF YOU SEE THEM DOWNLOAD DO NOT INSTALL..... only get a brief window to get them..... Screen shot said edison!!!!!

I would wait this is MB865.AsiaRetail.en.03 looks like a revision of the first asia leak..... Wait for the devs to come look more..... I mean if you are bold you could put in sd card and hold down vol up and down pick recovery little android will come up with triangle over him than flash from there.....

this means that the rom can't be flashed on at&t atrix, right?
I'm gonna try flashing this later, maybe this is going to have less bug.

As I understand it, until a dev finds a way to make it work on the US AT&T version of the Atrix 2, it's a good idea to just avoid anything that anybody says, at least that's the track I'm taking. Yes, I want an ICE CREAM SANDWICH too (doesn't everybody? ) but I'll remain patient till either a) a talented dev from around here or wherever drops a working functional AT&T-ready and compatible ICS ROM or b) Motorola gives it up themselves.
I've been doing ROM swaps for nearly a decade now on several hundred devices and I swear to some higher power, I'm sick to death of doing it, I want a solid reliable ICS ROM and if I have to wait another 6 months to get it, so be it. Running Remus v2.0 right now and it hasn't given me anything but stability and it's awesome.
I only hope ICS for the Atrix 2 can match it.
So, my advice is just wait, be patient, and we'll get it at some point - "we" meaning those of us with the AT&T Atrix 2, that is.
Is it ironic that in almost all situations with respect to consumer electronics the US has the favored hand, but when it comes to cell phones we end up getting shafted to some degree with updates like that? How very odd... guess the Atrix 2 is more popular in other parts of the world, who knows.

It is the carriers that hold it up and screw it up. In the US they have too much power.
