factory reset brings it back to 2.3.5? - Motorola Atrix 2

Does a factory reset take 2.3.6 back to 2.3.5 if it came with 2.3.5? I searched but couldn't find anything specific about the atrix2. Sorry if this is an uber-noob question.

No it does not. You will still be on 2.3.6

Why no unroot on superoneclick?

Maybe I missed it but, where is an unroot for this phone? I'm just asking... my superoneclick doesn't have it.

Look around, its closer than u think...
Are you on GB rom? Super One Click doesn't work with this device runing GB rom. To unroot it you would need to format the system partition and flash back to stock rom.

You cannot superoneclick on the GB update. I got tired of waiting for superoneclick to be updated so I went ahead and NV flashed CWM, then flashed a pre-rooted OTA GB rom. All is good now. I suggest you do the same. Plenty of guides here, and its way easier than what I thought.
Sweet..lol the question never had ginger in it. All it implied was..."is there an unroot method besides the update doing it". If I'm gonna get a replacement, I need unroot. But I have decided to keep it. The freezing up isn't that bad.
Oh, I'm nvflashed back to froyo. Gingerbread update didn't impress me.

when i bought my phone it came with 2.3.6, since then i have rooted and flashed cwm, my question is can i still flash back to stock 2.3.5 to download the kies ICS, or will this cause a soft brick. also can i just down the ICS stock tar and flash this with odin?
Sticky topics my friend and search but im sure you can odin back to stock or through kies

The fxz back to anything (2.3.5/.6) will wipe all as is without checking anything. If it's the wrong fxz... then that's bad news - that's where bricks happen.
The leaked upgrade package has checks before it will install, so that is the one you want to worry about a clean system on - but it typically won't brick you, it'll just fail..
So, long story short.. no, beats audio will not affect the fxz flash - just don't reinstall it before you upgrade to ics..
Which 2.3.5 fxz do I use then because I see multiple

The very bottom one (InlineFlashing_edison_5.5.175.25_cfc_p3_APBP.xml.zip) is the AT&T 2.3.6 fxz.
The 2nd from the bottom (InlineFlashing_edison_5.5.175.16_cfc_p3_APBP_CID285.zip) is the AT&T 2.3.5 fxz (you would need to use the 2.3.6 "replace" files from the beginner's thread with this one)
So use the 2.3.5 fxz (second one from the bottom and then ota to 2.3.6 then to ics leak?

Either should work. But, the 2.3.6 fxz at the bottom will put you back to stock 2.3.6, so no need to go to 2.3.5 at all.. but your choice. I have used both. (But remember to replace the files first if you use the 2.3.5 fxz!)

Okay and 2 questions will I need to sd card in when doing the fxz to 2.3.6? And is there any chance of my atrix 2 soft or hard bricking randomly during the process?

No, I do not believe that you need the sdcard in.
And, sorry to say, but there is always a chance for something to go wrong.
A few things to make sure of before starting:
- make sure you have the right fxz for your phone (and replacement files if necessary)
- make sure you have the moto drivers installed on your comp
- make sure you have like at least 50%+ battery left
- make sure to use a rear USB port on your comp (or a very reliable one on your laptop - I got 3 on my laptop, only one works solidly)
- make sure you are patient and let the process completely finish

Okay thanks and are these all the correct files I need for the fxz then upgrade?

From the looks of things...yes, they look like the right files. You are on AT&T 2.3.6, and have never been on ICS yet, right? RSDLite has been updated to 5.7 though I think.. not sure if it matters or not.
Good luck, looks like you're on the right path... (insert standard "I'm not responsible.." disclaimer)

[Q] stock recovery

Im on ota from the first leak. Then i flashed the scv7 without making a backup. I downloaded an app that allows you to manipulate the radio and now my texting doesnt work. I normally would fxz back but i don't think there is one for the second leak or ota. If i load into stock recovery and reset to factory will that bring it back to stock ot back to scv7 without a launcher like it would if i reset to factory in a custom recovery
Sent from my MB865 using xda premium
Hate to say it man but I think you're hosed. Factory reset will not fix your text issue.
You need to fxz back but you CANNOT as we don't have an ICS fxz.
Time to get a replacement.

No. It will only wipe user data, and the radio modifications would either be system or radio.img modifications.

This is exactly what we were warning everyone about - IF YOU WANT TO ROOT AND MOD YOUR PHONE ON ICS, STAY ON THE FIRST LEAK ONLY! There is no safety net fxz for anything higher than leak#1 yet. (Sorry, for the caps lock, but it wasn't directed only at you.)
Can you boot into custom recovery (probably not, from the sound of it)? Not sure what and how bad things are messed up, but you can't re-install the OTA through stock recovery.. I don't suppose you made a system.img before this happened? If you can't get into custom recovery, then your only hopes at this point is to flash something with moto-fastboot in AP Fastboot mode - i.e. system.img and/or radio.img - but, that probably won't help unless they are images from your own phone.
Yea everything works but the text messaging . I actually flashed the multilingual stock thinking it would fix but it didn't.

Yea, like I said man. Unfortunately, we have no way of fixing your issue right now. You need a replacement phone.

Android is Upgrading

I was just watching a video on YouTube and then YouTube crashed. So it pulled me backbto the homescreen and when I pressed the app drawer the entire phone crashed! I l left it there for 2 minutes without touching it, it said android is upgrading. Any reason it did that?

Did you factory reset after reverting back to stock? I think there was some issues (gremlins) that were reported when reverting and factory resetting seemed to fix any issues. It's worth a shot if it happens again.

Do you have cwm? Wipe davlik if you do. If that doesn't work then try flashing a custom rom through cwm. If that doesn't fix it then send it in but make sure to reset the flash counter first.
