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

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.

Are you coming from another phone, say, a 3G phone that the retailer may have taken the SIM card from and put into your A2?
The ATRIX 2 is a 4G phone, and if the SIM card from a 3G phone is used it will cause connectivity issues.

Not familiar with those phones. Try going to your provider's retail store and have them swap the SIM, that's where I'd start. I always request a new SIM card with each new phone, as they do have a shelf life -especially when swapping between two or more devices.

Are you in the US? Which atrix2 are you using?
What I noticed is that the at&t version is so tuned to at&t that it might have issues when you run it over other network because of some small frequency differences.
Previously I was using captivate which was also an at&t phone and I had similar problem but over time, there were several radio firmware that you could flash over and improve (or worsened ) the signal quality.
The atrix2 is not there yet..

Nop, you can proceed with the bootstrap but the thing of having CWM on boot it's that it something goes wrong when you install another rom (boot loop or something similar) is that you can reverse the damage by restoring a backup or flashing a another rom you have.
If you install the bullet rom keep in mind that it comes already with the CWM on boot feature so you don't need bootstrap anymore

Yup,that's what im thinking,i don't need to install CWM to run custom rom. But just like you said incase that i encounter problem i can't reverse the damage. I followed the instruction to put both the bootstrap and the CWM on the root of my SD card. I installed the bootsrap first and boot, and when im about to install the zip file of CWM, i can't find it. I tried many times to copy and paste and still the same,i can't find the CWM zip. What do you think is the problem?

Phone's signal is depended on hardware and its related firmware (baseband), so do not try many Roms to find the best for better signal (now we can't try to flash new baseband due to locked bootloader).

Flash count keeps track of how many times custom firmware is flashed to the phone using odin. Basicalky flashing a custom recovery or kernel in odin. You can check your counter in download mode. You can reset the counter using an app called triangle away in the market.
Hit me up on Gtalk if u need help @musclehead84
Good morning good afternoon good evening depending on where you are..
There is a similar thread just below this but obviously my issue is more on depth...
Let me explain what happened.
I was running clean ROM 5.0 and attempted to flash kind of crap mods. In doing so, I lost the ability to make or receive phone calls or texts.
It was brought to my attention that my IMEI may have been damaged and it turns out it was.
I followed the steps to repair it with @puremotive step by step and got it back.
I flashed back to clean ROM 5.0 without any problems. The ROM is in tact and running fine, my IMEI number restored, but I still can't make calls or texts. I can get on the internet.
I tried punching in the *code on the keypad without success.
I really don't want to have to send my phone back to the manufacturer!
Can anyone please help me. I am at work and can't use my phone.
Thank you all very much. Good karma coming your way

I'm pretty sure the sim re-provision code is disabled on TW JB because of the recent exploits reported about malicious folks embedding the code into websites.
Try it on an ICS TW rom and see if that works. If you don't know of one, then Odin an ICS stock image then try the dialer code again.

Download load stock vzw rom version 4.0.4 from sammobile.com and on firmware, type I535, it should pop up with stock vzw rom for you to download. Does your imei match the one on the back of the phone? ERI version should be 5. Let try with original stock rom first, then do *2767*3855# again, hoping it restores your ERI version to 5. Otherwise, you did not restore your imei correctly.

It could be the problem, but try original stock rom from sammobile.com, search box type I535 and it should pop up download section for you. ERI appears automatically when you restore imei.
