Guys,
I'm taking my boyfriend's Atrix 2 down to the AT&T DSC and I was wondering how I'd get back to stock ICS 4.0.4 with stock recovery, etc. I want it to be 100% stock. Someone provided me with a zip a few days ago, however, the recovery was still the same afterwards. It's on Leak 2 btw.

Flash it with RSD lite, not recovery. If you don't know how to do that, there's a tutorial here:

Is the Windmobile of the S-4G available to be flashed to ICS? I've flashed a few phones, just having a hard time figuring out what variant the Windmobile version is and if it's upgradable with cyanogen to a later version, debating about upgrading tomorrow to one.

Try looking at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1552119
Bhundven was able to confirm that the phones are [almost] identical with a few small differences and that flashing ROMs for the 959V should be safe. Again, read the thread for more detailed information.
Pay close attention to this warning though: "If the rom contains bootloaders, please DO NOT flash them until we can confirm there are no bootloader differences."
As FBis251 said later, "TLDR: Don't flash bootloaders if the ROM contains bootloaders. No CWM roms contain bootloaders, a lot of heimdall/odin roms contain bootloaders."

If the phone come with gingerbread installed yes. You just have to be very careful. The bootloaders we have are for the T-mobile version. So if you foul up and need to flash back to stock with bootloaders you are boned. However if you just want to flash a flavor of ics this can be done with the purple link in my signature. That will get you rooted with clockworkmod recovery then just flash one of the flavors of ics.
With all that said search is your friend, this information is posted in this subforum AND the general android forums. Our dev bhundven has a couple threads on how to do this.

I've asked people if they have the stock leaked rom for t959w to PM me, and no one has.
Someone also offered to try flashing t959v bootloaders, but never got back to me. My guess is that either it worked great and he is quietly rockin some rom in the dev forum, or it bricked his device and he didn't know what to do with it.
If someone has a t959w they are replacing, I'd like to try my hand at applying AdamOutler's unbrickable mod and experimenting with bootloaders on that device.
There is also the t959p, which is the telus galaxy s 4g.
This phone is different then the t959v or t959w. It has cg2900 gps, where as we have a-gps and there are a few other differences.
The same goes there. If someone has a t959p, I'd like to try the same.
Thanks everyone. I normally search, I was just in a rush as I was getting a new phone this morn and it was between the S 4G or the Q with the slide out keyboard, but it seems no one decided to do anything on the Q, so I went for the S 4G. I'll do lots of reading before I decide to flash or not, I just like having the option.
Hi,
I have the Japanese S2 LTE, for which there appear to be no custom ROMs. So I'll have to (urgh, this is not why I bought an Android phone) use the carrier's ROM. BUT when I try to do an OTA update, it boots into CWM. I assume this is because the OTA update is setup to work with the stock recovery. So does anyone know where I can get the stock recovery from? I assume I'll need to use Odin?
edit: more info:
Model: SC-03D
Android version: 2.3.6
Baseband: SC03SOMLB9
Kernel: 2.6.35.11-SC03DOMLB9-CL980106

Also, I'm pretty sure the recovery will be the same as the Skyrocket. Almost everything about the phones is the same, save for the buttons and LTE chip.
TIA
Not sure of your model number, but a quick Google search came up with this...

Thanks for the reply. Sorry, SC-03D. It's the Japanese LTE model on Docomo. The LTE radio is different, and it only has one hard button with two touch buttons (like the original Galaxy S).
That thread is titled just Galaxy S 2 - will that work on an LTE?

For any future reference - I found a complete stock Docomo ROM on SamMobile and flashed it in Odin. My phone is now being treated (by Kies/OTA update) as a fully up to date, unmodified phone. Not that that really helps, Docomo still haven't released ICS. In October 2012. Still on Gingerbread. Yep.
My Atrix2 which box stated ME865 model. After I tried to flash rom without success with no any backup. I found rom InlineFlashing_Edison_67.21.125_CFC_P3_APBP.xml flash RSD my phone wake up again. But with ATT logo and 4g and some trouble with e-mail app. I tried to flash by RSD with Asian model such as 5.5.1-EDEM-27-ASIAOPS_cfc.xml,5.5.1-EDEM-27-SEARET_cfc.xml,5.5.1-EDEM-28-37-ASIAOPS_cfc.xml etc with failed flashing at process 7 of 20 all above. Another failed since first process are fastboot-p3_edison-edison-user-4.0.4-6.7.2_GC-180-EDS-20-31-release-keys-ChinaRetail-CN_chn.tar and fastboot-p3_edison-edison-user-4.0.4-6.7.2_GC-220-EDS-3-65-release-keys-Retail-05_hktwn.tar.
What wrong with this case. Please advice.
I used this phone with Thailand operator which no 4G yet
Thaking in advance.

Might want to post this in the Atrix 2 forum, you'd probably be more likely to find some help there. Good luck.

Let me first say hello I am new to this forum. I am new to rooting/flashing when it comes to androids. I have a Verizon Motorola Droid Razr HD XT926 which I am trying to fix for a friend. It is stuck on the red eye and will not boot. I understand I will need to re-flash the software, and I understand the steps I need to take to re-flash using RSD lite. My problem is I cannot find a download for the stock rom, nor am I 100% sure which one I need. My friend has no interest in rooting, so I just need it back to stock. I do not know what software version is currently on the phone. Is there a way to find out with the phone not booting? Or does this even matter? Can I just flash the latest official version? And that is my main problem, which version to use, and where to find the download for it. I have searched around for some time and cannot find a definite answer on this. Thanks alot, any help with this would be amazing!
Your best bet is to just flash the latest one. You can get it from here: http://www.drdevs.com/devs/FXZ-files/XT926 (Droid RAZR HD)/ . The last one on the list is the latest.

Thanks alot this is very helpful. I will give it try!
Apologies ahead of time for being very late to the party and for general noob-ness. I've got an AT&T Atrix 2 still on 2.3.6, believe it or not. OTA updates haven't worked for me, whether because my carrier is Red Pocket or because I'm rooted or for some other reason.
So I want to flash a new ROM and I've been reading up. Every ROM I've read about requires BMM. It was available on its own, then it was in the Play store, but now it's not there either. I've read that Safestrap is a good alternative to BMM, but I believe development has ended on that as well.
So what should I use?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!
ONLY USE BMM for Atrix 2
You can find a detail tutorial How to install any KK ROM on system 1 for Atrix 2 AT&T here

And remember once you flashed ICS, NEVER flash back to 2.3.x
Thanks! I'll give this a try.
