it would be much easier if you used a PC, but if you don't have access to one then try this:
*Edited instructions so that you won't have to use ROM Manager and have them all in one single post*
1) Root your device with this app: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044765
2) Install 3e modded recovery as shown here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y09p-J_g_Rg
-just copy recovery file to /bin using Solid Explorer or ES File Explorer (both free).. skip the ROM Manager part.
3) Install cwm by using method 1 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1107881
from this point, you should be ready to flash custom roms through recovery. I would recommend jumping from versions one at a time (froyo -> GB -> ICS) just to avoid any errors.
Be aware that flashing ICS will leave you with a rainbow recovery since you won't have gingerbread bootloaders, which can only be flashed from download mode.
Hope I was able to help you! PM if you have any doubts

I advise to look at the Super ISET page by our own bigjoe as opposed to using ROM Manager. This is due to the fact that ROM manager bricks infuses a lot.
Just for safety's sake? :$

I don't like ROM Manager at all, but since he does not have access to a PC I figured that would be his only option..
Edit: moved the instructions to post #2 to avoid any confusion.

uumm.. ok i undertood everything, but im stuck tryin to paste the recovery to the bin file cuz it says error when i used the solid explorer but when i tried with root explorer n it says that i cant do it cuz my phone aint rooted... thats where i get confused cuz thats the hole purpose!! :/ what should i do now??
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app

Did you already do step 1? There's where you root your phone. Without root you don't have write access to /bin which explains the error when you try to paste.
Edit: be sure to follow the instructions on my 1st post (post #2 of this thread). I edited those to guide you through complete process to acquire root & cwm without using Rom Manager

ok wait... ur 1st post says that i have to root my cel with what?? cuz it only haves the youtube video of intalling the recovery file n thats where im stuck... i did step by step about 5 times and it keeps giving me the same results... btw thanks for helping with all of this...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app

To root you must use an app called gingerbreak. I gave you the link for the app's thread; just download the latest version listed there, install on your phone and run it and should have root !

well the link doesnt show dnt knw why.... btw my phone aint gingerbread, does it matter??

seems im screwed!! gingerbreak didnt work... it stays rooting running exploit for ever!! i left it there for about 20 mins and nothing just lime z4root... ive tried z4 a cew times n never worked... i tried gingerbreak with a galaxy s 4g i had and it didnt work either... ive seen youtube videos of people rooting these same phones n it takes about a minute or 2.. i dnt knw why it doent work 4 me... this is frustrating!! :/
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app

That's bad news :/ well that means you are gonna need to find a Pc to root it and then you can move on with the rest.
If you do get access to a Pc, consider using Odin which would allow you to jump to a GB + rooted + cwm + gb bootloaders all in one flash.. that would save you some time and get rid of rainbows if you move on to ICS

ok... i will try it... thanks for your time and tryin ur best!! i was reading and i think this phone has NAND lock... im not sure but i think ill have to use unrevoked to root it. :s
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app

I never had heard of that before but I did a quick search and it seems our phone is not nand locked. If it was, we wouldn't be able to obtain root by using superoneclick, which is what you would be using to root yours

i bricked my atrix 2 2.3.6

i have already tried the noob guide. it didnt work for me. my phone is stuck on the M dual core screen and wont go any farther.
i have a clockwork mod recovery of my original rom (2.3.6) but cant seem to get it to install.
does anyone have another way to get my phone back to stock or anything else
thanks for the help

Need firmware info mate. Then I can help you. AT&T? 2.3.5? 2.3.6?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium

Agreed, Fall. The more info the better. What did you do to cause the phone to soft brick? I hope that if you were messing around with the ICS leak, you handled everything as if it were dynamite. You say you have CWM, I assume you also had/have the Atrix Bootstrap apk as well. (?) Did you install anything else, such as BootMenu? Be as exact about what happened, what you did, what all you had installed, and the above mentioned by Fall of Enosis. The more you can provide, the better he (we) can troubleshoot...

Ask jim or alteredlikeness before you do this!!!
Seriously ask first!
If I understand correctly jims script and or alreredlikness's mod to said script leaves the mbm intact. You might be able to use their stuff for ics fxz back even though your only still on gb and never been on ics. The script way is simple IF they tell you it would work. Ask them personally first though. Good luck.

Scott indicated there are bugs. Possible issue with stock browser. Kinda Crap mods not tested to work. AFAIK, the latest and greatest that's stable is the G7 radios, CleanROM 2.1 and CleanKernel 1.2, all three of which have been reported to work very well together (including for myself). Hope this helps.
--more--
Sorry, forgot to answer your question...lol...this is MUCH different than CleanROM. CleanROM has all or most of the bloatware / Verizon crap removed, as well as a lot of background apps and services disabled or removed as well. The OTA has nothing removed and is only rooted (meaning you can use Titanium Backup, ES File Explorer and other system-type apps as root).

Possible NFC fix
Here is a link to a zip that you have to flash. A friend gave it to me to fix my nfc issue and it worked beautifully, he also used is and it fixed his nfc issue.

I take no responsibility for any negative repercussions that may occur due to you flashing this zip.
Hope this helps
Happy flashing from the cat.

Who created this file and what's it do to fix NFC? I switched to liquidsmooth beta2 and it works now.

You just answered your whole problem. Could have saved us a lot of time. If gonna jump around on ASOP based roms **** gonna be broke.

I'm rather paranoid about the secure element and potentially frying it when switching ROMs. I always reset Google Wallet and clear data before I flash in a new /system or do a factory reset.

Possible NFC fix
The zip was downloaded from a thread in the verizon general QA section. Not sure if I could find the thread because it was a friend who directed me to the zip. Also I'm not certain what is does to fix NFC I just know that after flashing it wallet was working for me.

I think that someone with a lot of porting experience can get this to (partially) work, I have no experience with porting what soever, but I do know Python and learning VB. Would be cool if I could use those in android

I hope someone may consider it. I am learning all this stuff with a lot of effort. I have until now been developing apps only... But ROM dev and porting, and kernel tweaking is really interesting. But you can use python in android...at least in app dev.

Wow, Somcom, you have already done it? Why haven't you posted that awesome ROM on our dev thread? But if you opt to keep it private, i would like to have a taste. Or at least teach me how you ported that ROM. I really wanna be a ROM dev and porter. Thanks for the hope.

Finished it about 3 hours ago.
WiFi is broken, keeping me from relasing.
Wasn't really a port, was more of recompiling the kernel and adding blaze support kind of thing. Only took me 9 hours...
This approach lets people flash any Hercules and skyrocket tw rom.

Do you have like tutorials for porting tw roms from similar devices(Hercules etc)? I would like to learn that. If not please give me some guidelines. I would really be thankful. Anyways you know a lot of stuff, have you ever considered passing that expertise to others? Oh well, i know there are a lot of tutorials on everything all over the forum and stuff, but maybe your way is different. You have done a lot of dev work, that's what i mean.

Ha ha.
No tutorials it's all prior knowledge.
Well here's how this project came to be :
1) read this thread
2) downloaded the source code
3) diffed the defconfigs of herc, the cm t769 and the ics apex one.
4) compiled a kernel
5) repacked boot.img
6) didn't boot
7) replaced my uber kernel with the compiled kernel
8) booted, no network, wifi, gapps.
9)Repeat 4,6,8, and 9 five times. 10) debug ril. Fixed
11) post screen shot
12) go to sleep

Thanks Somcom, I'll try that. But my ROM will probably get stuck on the bootscreen, or systemUI or android.core process will keep crashing , coz that's what happens to all my Roms. But thanks alot. I hope to see the 4.1.2 tw ROM soon. GREAT DEV WORK, REALLY GREAT...

Forgot to mention flash isn't working too

Wifi will be a while... Torch too..
They are linked to the libhardware_legacy.so lib, which can't be easily modified.

Yap, things aren't so bad. The broken features will, in time, get fixed. You couldn't possibly steal us a taste, would you?
