[Testing] I Think I've got a way to get back to 2.3.5 from 4.0.4 - Motorola Atrix 2

---This Will Brick Your Phone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't do IT!!!---
Hello,
If You Got your phone bricked trying to downgrade from ICS to 2.3.5 then I THINK I Have A Way To Get To Stock.
1. Enter fastboot on your phone
2. put moto-fastboot in your fxz folder
3. open cmd or terminal or whatever then type the commands below
4. Enjoy!
Someone's got to tell me if it works
Ok So Here is the commands:
Code:
---Deleted Until We Found It---

The fact that this will flash mbm.bin, tells me you have not done your research..... that file right there is the new bootloader, and it will brick your phone.
Please erase this post... you will cause more bricks... Us devs have this under control, please let us do what we do best.. we will have a fix.

I am telling you that the mbm.bin is what is bricking people.... Have you been paying attention to all the bricking threads? both the scripts (which by the way I have written one that does exactly what you have posted), and RDS lite do the same freakin' thing, but they both brick the phone at flashing the mbm.bin file.
Please, I beg you to take this thread down, there will just be more bricks.

Not trying to piss anyone off but this ics leak has done nothing but cause headaches for everyone in one way or another. We all should let the devs handle everything from this point on. If you think you have a fix that will help the community out just pm one of the devs and ask them first before posting anything to the general community. I'm sure that they would not mind a simple pm instead of a new thread being started.

If you PM us, please give us enough time to reply back.. All of your A2 devs are working in the background very hard, together I might add, on a lot of these ICS issues.

Well, there is no working CWM, or any recovery method for that matter, so we also can't build and flash ROMs, and we can not perform nandroid backups as well with out CWM. Overclocking, init.d, 1% battery mod bootloops the phone, and several other things.

Umm, jim? I actually disagree with you. For once, lol. Bootstrap and cwm are working fine for me. I used it to flash altered's carrier remover zip.
Worked fine. Although i won't be flashing anything else till we can find a safeguard. Should i try to make a backup through cwm? Haven't yet. A bootloop, for any reason, is death right now...
EDIT: And for pete's sake people, just because i says it works FOR ME, doesn't mean you should try to use it. We have no backup right now. Lord, I shouldn't have to edit my posts like this lol.

Well, with some research you'll discover that a few have flashed it successfully with good results, others, not so much. I was one of the lucky ones who only had a slight problem, but others have entirely corrupt refs, without which their skyrocket will not function.

I'm up for testing What are your builds based off of? I've found that I like the AOKP Bionic ones best, in terms of performance and compatibility.

all it is for now is the droid 3 aokp and ics builds with modified build.props, just trying to get things out here. Dorid 4 and RAZR builds don't wan't to work for me, I have not tried bionic yet. the droid 3 aokp that I used in my most recent build will not boot, but that may be my fault with the mods, but other ones have worked. known issues so far are no sdcard in cm9, no wifi in cm9, and duh, no radio anwhere.
I'm Game!
I'll try it:cyclops:!
Anyone can feel free to download any builds I put up here: http://www.androidfilehost.com/main/Motorola_ATRIX_2_Developers/lkrasner/ (in subfolders mostly, so look around as I add more.)
Do not expect them to even boot, and it is not even remotely my problem if something goes wrong with them. make sure you know how to fxz back. Right now CM9 boots, but I do not think AOKP does, you can give it a shot though. Please hold off on bug reports for now, or PM them to me, as I will set up a thread in the dev section later or tomorrow.

This is the RAZR bootstrap... and just because it boots doesn't mean its working...The current bootstrap we have boots under ICS but isn't fully functional. This is your second time posting a fix with out doing any research. If a newbie spotted this thread, they might install it thinking it works and viola they have a bricked phone. So please unless you REALLY know how to fix things and have dev experience please don't post every possible fix that MIGHT work.

It's not you or your work. It's the fact that there have been a lot of hard bricks and we need to be extra careful about releasing anything for the ics leak. It needs to be tested by more than one person. It might work for you but not someone else. We are all being cautious, that's all.

Way too many d-bags on XDA. Yes, he posted in the wrong forum, now he knows and I'm sure a mod will move it. Saying it over and over again and being a d-bag while doing it, doesn't help anyone.
OP, as others have stated, you are probably best off going back to a stock rom from Odin and ensuring you have a proper recovery flashed. Then start over with whatever it was you were trying to do.

i have flashed several roms and recoveries over the years with the droid inc, droid inc2. and now the samsung. sorry to start a flame war. i will not post here again. i was simply trying to help report issues to developers.

Can't say I blame you....

[Q] Is there someone working on a root method?

Hey guys, as the title states, is there anyone working on root method for the latest OTA (9/4/12)? I foolishly updated, as always hoping they'd fix the reloading issue, and now I'm stuck on it because I can't seem to find a working root method for this update. If anyone needs a test phone, then I'm up for it, I gotta get this thing working properly already!!
Thanks,
John

EDIT: I found a way to downgrade it and so I wrote up a thread about it. You can find it HERE

I've been looking for one for the past 3 weeks and it doesn't seem like there is one...As to whether anyone is working on one, its hard to tell :\
But yeah, like Chad the Pathfinder said, you should keep checking that thread.

Yeah, I sent him a PM, actually two, but no response. Was offering him to test whatever he needed tested, perhaps he's still working on something to test.

I know what you mean, I've also gone through a bunch of different websites, and nothing there, perhaps another phone with a similar OS has a solution that could be worked off of. Heck, I've fiddled around with a few different methods, but the primary issue is not being rooted. I managed to get a part of the clockwork recovery, but even though I had a ROM in the sdcard root, my phone just rebooted, and no change was made, may try a different ROM for the heck of it.
Takes time if it's going to happen. He's a fairly busy person .
Haha yeah, someone spoken of so highly must be extremely busy as a result

I'll PM him and see if I can help in anyway .
Hmm could you tell him that I would be willing to help too? I mean I'm a noob and I'm definitely not a developer but if theres anything to be tested, I would be willing to do it

He doesn't ignore the " newbs " . Remember we are all newbs at some point or another. He just has a busy schedule. Plus keep in mind he does not own a Shift.

By that I mean we're not on the priority list to contact, when he sees our messages he just doesn't respond to start unnecessary conversations that may take up his time. O well, for now, we wait!
Hey guys, after mixing the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1558532 method and the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1871129 method, I achieved temp root, and managed to flash PG06IMG.zip and downgrade. Very happy at the moment and on Android 2.2!!!

Were you on the latest ota?
You should write up a guide for those who need it

I think I will, even though I just used an external application to do the reboots for me, where tacroot couldn't get the permissions.
It came as a surprise, as most of the stuff I tried failed me.
Hmm maybe this will inspire future devs to just mix and match rooting methods to get root
Nice job even thinking of combining those though
