[Q] How do I get unstuck from AT&T screen running ICS

Hey all, I recently rooted my atrix 2 about 3 days ago then decided I wanted to run ICS so I went back to 2.3.5 then OTA'd to 2.3.6 and got my phone on ICS following Jim's guide. Everything went fine and I was running ICS fine until I downloaded ROMtoolbox and tried to change my font to the DROID font. the screen flashed and everything went to chinese and then my phone reboot itself but now it keepts getting stuck on the white AT&T screen, I've tried running through recovery and rebooting but everytime it just freezes on that screen.
Nevermind guys I got it all back up and working by just reinstalling ICS from recovery menu.

Can you get into bootmenu? If yes, do you have an ICS based backup?
If you don't have a backup or bootmenu the only thing you can really do is fkz back to GB 2.3.5 and re-update...
And for future reference... don't use rom toolbox.. it usually doesn't end well... as you might have figured out.

PEOPLE! Stop goofing around with things using ROM Toolbox, it does nothing for your phone other than cause headaches. I've soft bricked using it, others are having similar problems. It's not worth the hassle. Seriously...

so it would be better to have the individual apps themselves instead of toolbox or stay away from those apps in general? also is it still possible to do the wifi tethering with the ICS leak?

[Q] SERIOUS HELP freezing

I flashed JB on my gt-n8013, and then i wanted to return back to ICS as Kno doesn't want to run. So i downloaded the GT-N8013 from Sammobile and flashed it in.
But when it's rebooting it's kept hanging on Samsung logo and doesnt want to run. what can i do. Help please

try re-flashing.. or re-downloading the file... it might be corrupted

Well you need to boot into recovery and do a comple wipe unfortuantely you will lose all data

I would suggest to you that if you redownload the rom and it still does not work then you should try out a different rom, because it seems like you may have downloaded a rom for a similar tablet and now find yourself running into issues.

I Reflashed again JB UK 4.1.1 and it's working fine, but i can't switch back to ICS GT-N8013. I'm in exams' period and some of my studies on Kno :S and i can't get it working, i contacted them and told me they're still working on a JB version :S
Thanks all

Boot to recovery Factory reset .
Flash stock ICS rom via Odin .
jje

You will loose ALL data on internal card so back up before doing this...

I'm having the exact same problem could you please post a direct link to the package that finally worked, what flags did you check in odin?

What he did was went from JB to JB for 8010 when JB to ICS did not work so he did not get it to work
Unfortunately there is no workaround when you go from JB to ICS you need to do a complete wipe to make it work

[Q] Skyrocket will not update to ICS

I have ATT i727 Skyrocket that was at 4.1.x and working fine for months.
I rooted the phone about 6 months ago. All OK.
Yesterday phone locked up. I pulled battery to reboot. Phone stopped at Samsung word boot screen.
I got TWRP re-installed, then gingerbread tar 2.3.5 installed. phone now works.
Will not OTA to ICS. Will download, reboot and get to 25% and fail.
ODIN says YES 2 and Custom for ROM.
I can't find a tar image of ICS and would like to reset counter to zero, maybe unroot, go back to orig. firmware and then ICS.
Please, any suggestions? Thank you.

[SOLVED][Q] [HELP NEEDED] :Phone won't go past lock screen (Cannot unlock the screen)

Hello everyone.
I have a Motorola Atrix 2 (AsiaRetail).
I was using the Leaked JB on it for a while and because of the bugs and bloatware, thought about moving to ICS.
I flash GB FXZ with RSD Lite and after that did an OTA update on it.
Then I installed BMM (through play store app) and then flashed MOKEE on SYSTEM 3.
Thats it.. !!
After that my phone was stuck at MOTO logo and whatever I tried couldn't make it to boot.
This time I downloaded the ASIARETAIL ICS FXZ file and flashed it using RSDLITE.
Now the phone boots up, flashes the Google Account signing page for a fraction of a second and then go back to lock screen.
Tried flashing it again, cleaned cache / data / factory reset through the stock recovery etc.
I was searching for a while but in vain.
Can anyone help us on this ?

SOLVED
Hi All,
Seems I have found an answer to this
If anyone is seeing this issue and breaking their head over this, please try again with SIM INSERTED.
Yes that was the EFFING problem

Dude, you should have been on ICS to flash ROMs not JB leak.

Kexec ROMs can run on ICS as well as JB Leak Kernels.

[Q] Has this been tried?

So up until a week ago I was running CM11, but for the past month I was having battery issues so I decided to revert back to stock to test if it was the battery or the ROM. So I flash my phone back to stock and update to 4.4.2 knowing that I still had all the tools still available in case I wanted to flash back to CM11. Now today I wanted to flash back to CM11, but I wanted to make sure the methods were still correct to flash back to CM most concerning the bootloader, and to my dismay I found out that everything changed for the worse. On the bright side I was able to root my phone but unfortunately I flashed CWM recovery so now I can't get into recovery, but I can still access my phone so its not hard bricked to the point I have to JTAG, but my first question is how do I revert back to system recovery, I made a nandroid backup before I flashed the recovery but would that still work? And my second question is are there any ROMS you can install that allow you to run a custom recovery or allow you to flash back to 4.1.2? Either way, I'm glad I decided to double checks facts before proceeding or I would've had a bricked phone.

No custom recovery and no flashing back to 4.1.2. It is safestrap only and 4.4.2 touchwiz ROMs only, of which there is only one right now. Unless you are willing to send your phone to mobile tech videos and pay them $50. They are apparently ale to revert you're phone to 4.1.2.
You should have done a little more reading of all the warnings available in the forums before going back to stock and taking the update to 4.4.2.

Ok, that answers my second question, but is there anyways to reflash the stock recovery for 4.4.2?

There is if you can find one, but I don't think it's posted anywhere. Your best bet is to just Odin flash a stock 4.4.2 rom and start over again.
