Hi,
I did it the FXZ but dat is MB865 and my original is ME865
anyway to change it back to ME865 version. As after FXZ i couldnt set up any connection to sign in the google account on the phone which made my phone only able to call n sms other things not able to do it.
Please help!!!!

Here is the whole list of available fxz's: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/edison/list.php
EDISON-11_CHN is China Retail ME865
EDISON-11_HKTW is Retail ME865
EDISON-11_CU is ChinaUnicom ME865
Pick the right fxz then try and flash it. If it fails just post a screenshot.

Running MB865 after FXZ
Hi Cogeary,
on my previous quote, I mentioned that i managed to fxz after bootloop.
Im currently running MB865 2.3.6 which just updated and running smoothly after I called up my carrier to send me the phone+internet setting and now everything is running smoothly.
I guess I will leave it first and play it for a week and see what happen.
Thanks!

[Q] maybe i brick my phone

i have a motorola atrix 2 at&t(MB865).my phone was 2.3.6
1. I try to flash this firmware 5.5.1-EDEM-28-37-MEARET_cfc.xml.zip from this site http://sbf.droid-developers.org/edison/list.php with rsd.at 7/20 rsd was writting fail.i tried again with same result.after this my phone had problem with boot.the only method for boot was "vol down"+"vol up"+"power" and after i was pressing "Normal powerup".after all these my phone booted normal and worked normal.
2.after i flashed the Blur_Version.55.13.25.MB865.ATT.en.US.zip (ics) from this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1779968 and my phone was working normal but with the same problem with the boot.
3.after i tried to use this utillity http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1805975 .this process had some failure and after this my phone is unable to boot.
with "vol down"+"vol up"+"power" i can choose normal power up, but phone stucks at boot image.in addition i can choose recovery and phone boots at recovery mode.i choose to update from sd with this file Blur_Version.55.13.25.MB865.ATT.en.US.zip but my phone writes that its unable to flash this.
4.after i try to flash InlineFlashing_edison_5.5.175.16_cfc_p3_APBP_CID28 5.zip with rsd.the rsd wrote fail at 3/20 in addition i use the replace.zip with the same result.
5.after i try again the 3rd step with same results.
can anyone help me?

This whole mess started when you tried to flash MEARET firmware on your AT&T phone. NEVER mix firmware!
And trying recovery at this point is not going to work, as the ICS zip is just a large patch file for 2.3.6. And since it failed on the fxz, a portion of your system is missing so ICS won't install. You need to fxz back.
What step is the script falling at? A screenshot would be helpful.
And for the future, please post questions in the Q&A form.

sorry.please move this thread at q&a

Yes the script from step three is what's going to save you here.
But we need to know where it's failing at.

i can see that problem is with cbt, recovey and cdrom partition.

Uh oh.
Which ICS version did you install? Please show need the thread.
I need to know which leak it was.

Blur_Version.55.13.25.MB865.ATT.en.US.zip

Well I hate to tell you man. But you are soft bricked until we find an fxz for ICS.
Recovery and cdrom are failing because cdt.bin isn't flashing. And we haven't found a fix for this yet.
Although the strange thing is that this shouldn't be happening on the first leak... but it is...
So you're bricked mate.

ok, i will wait.
thanks.
but please explain to me.i had a motorola a1200 and a siemens sx1.when i flashed a firmware, all the flash memory erased and new data wrote at flash.if i had bootloader, all was fine.the only method to brick a phone was to replace the battery when flash the bootloader(or flash false bootloader).
at A2, why when i write a new bootloader and new mbr(and partition table?) is necessary to flash the same or newer edition of firmware?this is because bootloader is locked?
i thought when i flash a new firmware, all the flash memory erased and writes new data(at the begining the bootloader, after mbr with partition table, after the image(i think this is the kernel of linux) and all other the data)

If you did the OTA ICS update you WILL NOT be able to flash the FXZ back. We have no way out of this right now. And if you are bootlooping or stuck on the splash screen then you are bricked. Sorry mate.

Whiteboi, thanks for your consideration of others but PLEASE, research before you try to help others. For one thing, he is on an MB865 AT&T phone and therefore MUST download the firmware for an AT&T phone. The international versions of the A2 are completely different, including radio, WiFi and the like. NEVER mix firmwares.
Also, he already flashed international firmware which is what got him into this predicament in the first place. He also installed the OTA update for ICS for which there is NO GOING BACK. Read the threads I gave him and educate yourself man.
I applaud you generosity, but if he wasn't already bricked, your advice would have surely/quite possibly bricked him. Be careful man.

Yeah man, if you OTA'd to ICS then I can almost guarantee it will fail at step 3 of the flash process which is the cdt.bin. If you are using the script it will also fail on the recovery portion and the cdrom portion. These are both because of the cdt.bin As of right now, we have no fix for this. Once again, this is the reason we are recommending people to ONLY use the first leak, and not OTA to ANYTHING unless it's 2.3.6 GB. Once again, reference the links I sent you.
You're bricked sir.
Until we find an ICS fxz. Which might be A LONG TIME.
Time to get a replacement/new phone.

Thnx lkrasner for quick reply. I tried to take ota update, stuck in android is upgrading for half an hour, restarted the phone , did factory reset and wipe cache . stuck in M logo. I tried this 5 times. I can easily go back to gb of any region but cannot be upgraded by any means always soft brick.
I'm stuck in gb for more than 1 months.
3 days ago I tried to upgrade to ics leak cheesecake,searet one, it booted fine, but camera didn't work. So i restarted the phone and then the phone stuck in m logo. Within 1 month time i've tried every way and only 1 time it booted to ics and when i tried the same method next time it was soft brick.
Next is can we have stock ics kernel like other device do? How can i extract kernel from firmware zip folder. It is very easy in other decice but couldnot find kernel.img in any firmware.

You cannot flash a kernel on this device, which is why you cannot just fxz to ICS. it odes all these security checks in the upgrade. Not sure why that fails, but half an hour is not that long for it to hang, I remember mine taking at least an hour to finish.

My guess is, since you flashed different firmwares other than the specific one for your phone, something might be screwed up.
Give it to service and ask them to fix it.
If they can't make it, they might give you another phone. ( under warranty)

Just a thought:If you can get to the ICS leak 1 successfully, you should try OTA'ing from there as it will take you to the official ICS and hopefully everything will work from there.
BTW did you remove any bloatware or in any way modify any system files?coz that is the primary reason for OTA to fail.
Also check out the last_log file in cache/recovery,it might throw some insight as to what is causing the update to fail.

Coz many have followed the fxz route when the update via other methods failed.
And technically why wouldn't the fxz work it will flash the new bootloader which is the main hurdle and other things.

You can not install BMM on a CyanogenMod ROM (CM10 has another custom recovery built in). You will need to find the FXZ/fasboot files for your device and return to stock and start over (or just flash the system.img only).
Also, it helps us help you if you give more information about your device.
See here for your FXZ probably: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/edison/list.php
Also, see here if you don't want to use RSD Lite and for the system.img only script: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36834775&postcount=108 - make sure you read and edit the files for your region's FXZ (I made that based on the AT&T ICS FXZ files).

That is a hard brick for sure.
It appears that you flashed a GB FXZ over ICS, you can NOT do that with this phone. Once you are on an ICS kernel (that is what cm 10.1 requires), you can NOT go back to GB. Flashing the GB image over the ICS one bricked your phone, because it tried to flash the GB boot loader over the ICS one, and Motorola set this phone up to not allow that, and will hard brick the phone.
As for your other question, you can buy a used A2 on Ebay or the like and get one with a broken screen and put the mother board into your phone case and use your screen. If you are not handy, then I would say go grab a used Google Nexus 3 (GNex), from ebay or something like that.

hello
thank you for the answer that's what I thought hardbrick.
My question is are what I just install the backup of my a2 on the new or should reinstall it all.

[Q] soft brick Indian made

hi
I think i soft bricked my phone( it shows only the bootloading screen nothing other that that ) how should i correct it or can i install jelly bean leak 2 for my phone at this position PLEASE HELP ME

Flash Jelly Bean leak 3. If you have JB leak 2 link, can you share with me? Because I can't find JB leak 2.

I would suggest going back to ICS before flashing anything. Your phone is soft bricked, before you flash a jb leak use RSD lite to go back. It is a suggestion and a good one at that. You don't have to take it, but it would we silly not to.
