So I've upgraded to CM9(cm9-droid3-20120216-2345) which went fine.. However I have no service, no market, and for some reason the USB/Portal doesn't work the same with CM9.. So I can't flash my phone, and when I try to use backup/recovery to Clockwork Recovery through safestrap I am getting "Couldn't open directory. No files found."
I know the files are there, I can see them when I go to 'Install zip from sdcard'.. At this point I just want to get back to SuperCharged_V_5 and I have been beating my head all morning over this.. I have no idea what else to try from here as RSD Lite does not pick up my phone anymore.. What do I do guys

It does not work for our phone yet. lfaber06 and I have been working on it and CM7 for SEVERAL months now. The issue with CM9 is finding a radio for our phone that works with ICS (which is what CM9 is based off of). Go take a look at the post in the development section on it.
For those that would like to take a look at flashing it, you MUST use safestrap, which is having issues right now, and is very low priority since we have CWM through bootstrap and the CWM on boot hack.
Here is where the CM9 post is located, but I advise that you read the WHOLE thread, and if you would like to help you can start looking for a working radio that is similar to ours that is already on ICS.

Okay, so how do you put safestrap on the atrix 2 because i tried to flash the barely alpha cm9 to my atrix 2 and i bricked my phone, but now i realise that i had to have safestrap. i really want to try this rom so can anyone point me out to how to get safestrap?

The port does not work period. It was only posted for our dev team to help get it working. It is not going be working anytime soon.
I am working on a new CM9 compile specifically for our phone. I already have most of CM7 working as well, will be getting that out soon. CM9 will be a couple months away.

If you can go fastboot mode, then you should use the restore 2.3.5 fastboot script look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1539167
this has save me a thousands of times
In the meantime if you absolutely must mess around with ICS on your phone, all the Droid 3 4.0.4 AOKP nightlies will flash via bootstrap, but again, radio doesn't work.

Looking for the stock AT&T update.zip file. I did search, but now luck. Thanks.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989
I just need the update.zip file. Thanks anyway.
No problem. That was the closest thing I could find. Best of luck with whatever you are doing.
Are you talking about the update.zip file to root your device? I have that.
No, the stock update.zip file. I am running stock and tried to run the restore and it said the file is missing. I was going to put it back on and try and run it again. I've been having trouble powering on. I can only power on if I have it plugged up.
AT&T is sending me a new phone, but I just wanted to try and restore it for giggles and also to make sure my data is gone.
??
there isnt a stock update.zip........
The phone says that update.zip cannot be found on the sd card when I try to restore. I'm running stock on it. It may be that its just fried. Once it boots up it seems to run ok. I just got the new one from AT&T and going to send the old one in in the morn. Just wanted to try one last fix because everything worked great the past few days, even the gps was working better. I guess I will see how the new one does.

i dont think anyone here has any idea what you are talking about.
the stock phone doesnt have an update.zip on it. reinstall packages in system recovery doesnt mean it reinstalls stuff you removed from the OS. it allows you to flash zip files created for things like clockwork mod recovery and rooting on the 2.1....

There is no update.zip for stock firmware. Reinstall package in recovery mode is for flashing ROM updates and other stuff. If you delete something from stock ROM or messed up, there is no way to get it back or restore other than flash the stock ROM via ODIN3 and load stock firmware file.

I think you're confused with the JH7 update.zip that DG releases. It is not a recovery package zip OP like to have. You have to install CWM in order to flash this zip file.
What the OP doesn't exist. For the Captivate there are two options unless a developer creates another one:
1)Odin One click to I897UCJF6
2)ZIP of th I897UCJH7 firmware

I would advise you use the ODIN 1 Click to resolve any issue your having. I made a video on how to do this in my video archive thread...

I know we have no way of getting back to stock since we don't have an FXZ yet but why couldn't we use the stock Android recovery upon boot then use our nandroid backup from the ATRIX 2 bootstrap incase someone is stuck on a bootloop or messes their phone up? Would this work?
It sounds plausible, we just need someone that is still within their 30 day return time that has the nerve to try it. They would have to do a nandroid then purposely soft-brick and hope and pray I guess.
Well I dont remember being able to do this on my OG Atrix but today I was messing around and powered my phone off. I was wanting to get to the boot option screen so I could boot into stock recovery. Well I did and got the usual green man with a triangle. Then I proceeded to push the same buttons that got me to the boot option screen and then the stock recovery menu showed up just like CWM recovery. Was we able to do this on the OG Atrix because I dont remember?
In the Droid razor forums they have a way to boot cwm on power up. Ill post the link later. Why couldn't we port that to our phones?

If what I have just done will work we can do the same thing upon boot without having to port anything.
We should be able to flash any zip located on the sd card upon boot via the stock android recovery.
Hoping someone with a lil more knowledge of this stuff will chime in here
The stock recovery wont work for a few reasons the biggest is you cant backup and restore. We need cwm no question about it. we need this on our phones.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1385283
I have been talking to hashcode about porting his safestrap method from the droid 3 to our a2's. That would work even better because then we'd be able to restore to stock w/o an fxz or sbf.
Why can't you restore with the stock recovery? We can create backups through our bootstrap so that isnt a problem and it works just fine. But we have no option at boot which is the problem. Look at my last pic. That is my nandroid backup through our bootstrap.
I'm Uploading a video to youtube of what we need.. Hold tight. And I thought you couldn't use backups created from other recoveries?
http://youtu.be/H3fIdf5fQ70
So this is the droid 3 safestrap from hashcode working on my A2. I have been able to make backups that are actually 300mb more then the bootstrap cwm backups. I have Not tried restoring backups using it. I have replaced my phone 4 times now with best buy I don't want to try again.. I have sent hashcode some files he requested to hopefully port this over to the A2.
Check it out!

Okay, so here's a long story short. I flashed AT&T ICS leak #2 when I first got my replacement due to a brick. I ran SCV7 for a week or so and decided to try out CM10. I restored my backup of stock/rooted backup. Uninstalled highjacks, packages and app (bootmenu) itself. I then installed our OG A2 bootstrap, installed fine, installed CM10, played around with it for awhile. Realized I didnt reinstall the OG A2 Bootstrap so went ahead and did that. (without booting into recovery yet) I then later in the day decided to REBOOT my phone to only find me stuck on the CM10 boot animation. I battery pulled, plugged in to see if any recovery would show, none, just the battery charge percentage. I then battery pulled again, got into stock recovery, tried a data and cache wipe to no effect. My problem is, there is NO FXZ for the AT&T leak #2, I have no recovery besides stock and the only thing I can do is take my 32GB SD card out and add/delete files/everything. I saddly did not make a copy of the system.img but was wondering if anyone else possibly did? This would be greatly appreciated as I am stuck with a soft brick until then or a new FXZ to work with AT&T leak #2. Any suggestions or help is very much appreciated. Thanks all for reading and I'm praying for a miracle in my phone right about now lol!

Hey, and sort of welcome back...
But I hate to be the bearer of bad, bad news... you have a softbrick, and there is NOTHING you can do.
Next time, read everything in an OP... LOL, look who I am telling this to....
The CM10 installs come with their own CWM built in, and flashing bootstrap is what bootlooped you, so after you get another warranty replacement (yes, you HAVE to do this), I would install leak #1 ONLY, then flash cm10 with bootstrap, then do not reinstall any boot hijacks or CWM "like" recovery (bootmenu), because all you have to do it hit the vol down button right as you see the blue led flash during the M dual core logo.
Or enter the CM10 recovery menu and so on and so forth.
This is how I got out of a cm10 boot-loop.
I just restored from bootmenu backup via adb.

I will get with alteredlikeness and see if we can possibly think of something together on this one. The first thought would be to try an mearet/searet fxz for 2.3.6 since they can fxz back with out any mods to thier 2.3.6 or 2.3.5 fxz from thier ICS leaks, but I am thinking that will still brick you, but interested to see anyhow.
So I will see if alteredlikeness and I can think of some other way to try. He or I will PM you either way.

Hello everyone,
It's my first time witnessing this issue, I do have a Samsung Galaxy S 4G. So I decided to upgraded Eclairs to Gingerbread. Which I did.
Somehow I downloaded the CM7 ROM in the SGS 4G section, I have flashed it and now everytime I click "reboot system now", it's just putting me back to CWM Recovery over and over again. Now I got tired of it, so I tried flashing the SlimBean in hopes of making my device work the way they should, but it's the same result. When I cleared data, flashed the ROM and Gapps and when I click "reboot system now", It shows the boot screen but then it transferred me back to recovery. I don't really know what to do.
Urgent help needed. Thank you all.

Yes I can, also tried it with CM9, same results it shows recovery everytime. I need some help. :crying:
You say you went from Eclair (Did this phone even come with that? I thought it started with Froyo. Huh. At least, mine did.) to Gingerbread. Is the Gingerbread you started with CM7, or did you start with one that actually has normal GB bootloaders first? Because if you haven't yet, as with any major bootlooping issue, you'll want to use a proper GB one-click. If you failed to double-flash one of those to get the GB bootloaders earlier, do that ASAP. And hope hard that they come.
You are missing the boot loader if you went straight to Gingerbread. Use Heimdall One Click to flash to Gingerbread. Also click on the bootloader option as well when you flash.

Start at the beginning. When you rooted your phone what ROM/build were you on? Stock? What Recovery are you running? Did you make a backup? In my experience, you usually get a system 7 error when the download is bad, (did you check the MD5?) or if you're trying to flash a ROM that doesn't match your current system (IE: trying to flash a JB ROM when you're currently on ICS.)
The more info we have, the better we can help you.

Uh status 7 is assert protection so its a mismatch usually in device info typically model numbers, and has nothing to do with bad downloads.

Best of luck mate, reply here if you have any issues. And for pete's sake, next time, instead of watching a YouTube video, read read read and re-read the forums. Once that's done, read them again. Only then, start flashing.

Bro, you're going to end up with a paperweight. That guide is step by step. Read it, read it again.

That's an alternate form of DL mode. Odin a stock ROM from that screen. Read the Noobs Guide. Odin is finicky so pay attention to the guide. Then read it again. Once you've read and comprehend it all spin in a circle saying "I deserve this" three times and Odin will grant your wish. lol

Got it working, used TWRP to flash the latest RC CM 10.1
Got it all going now after a minor heart attack and a few more grey hairs. Just gotta figure out why the wifi isn't working at all now. Can't get it to turn on.
Your original 'system error 7' problem was most likely caused by trying to flash a newer ROM with an older version of CWM or TWRP. Glad you got the phone up, can't help you with the wifi problem, sorry. Although, what modem did you flash, if any? System Settings -> About phone -> Baseband version?

I flashed the UXUMA7 radio, didnt really do much, it worked before.
Still can't figure out the Wifi though :-/ just straight up won't turn on.
If you are on a newer CM 10.1 , the only supported radio is UCMC1, UXUMA7 is really old. That may be why wifi is not working.
UXUMA7 and UCMC1 are very similar. First one is the Rogers and second is att's release which is usually late by a month or so after rogers. Bottom line both will work.
Have your radiofile.zip, cm10.1.zip, and gapps from 20130301 all on your SD card.
Do you have a back up, nandroid? If not do it now.
Go to recovery and Clean up well:
Go to mounts and format data, system, cach twice or three times. Go to advanced and clean dalvik cache. Don't reboot
Now installing in this order:
- radio
-cm10.1
-gapps
Now reboot your phone.
Wait until it is finished and leave it untouched for 10 minutes to settle down and do its thing.
Then turn it off back on and enjoy.
Your noob status will start to fade if you do a clean install :thumbup:
