I rooted & installed CWM via the one-click method. It installs Rogue XM Recovery 1.3.0.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1689193
I backed everything up in CWM so that when & if I flashed back everything would be backed up. So I flashed Jelly Bean
[ROM][JB][4.1.1] AOSP build #4 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1779133
I played around with & didn't see what the big deal was with Jelly Bean was. Also was irritated that there was no file explore built into the ROM. I really like the one on Asus ICS ROM. Anyway I go back into recovery to install the stock Asus ICS ROM (US_epaduser9_2_1_27UpdateLauncher.zip). It tries but aborts
Finding update package...
Opening update package ...
Installing update...
Installation aborted.
What am i missing or doing wrong?
Well for starters the only reason the stock ICS roms have a file explorer is because its an Asus proprietary app, every custom ICS, or JB rom will require you to download one. Secondly are you trying to re-flash the stock rom or restore your back up? Id recommend you try using TWRP

I think i seen this before you are trying to flash an update to a rom not that actual rom......check the file size. I haven't had any issue converting Jb back to ICS. you have to flash a fresh install of the version you backed up then you can flash the back up you made. The mounting from ICS to JB is different and you cannot go backwards without flahsing a clean rom first.

I downloaded the newest firmware straight from the Asus website. That is what I am trying to flash but it fails to. If I should be doing something else then please tell me.
Did you unzip the download and flash the zip that is inside? For some reason Asus packages a zip within a zip. You need the one on the inside to flash.

I feel like such a moron because that was the issue. I found the .24 firmware that I had extracted to a folder with the need zip file in side. I was able to flash t e.24 with out an issue. I knew my issue was something stupid but I could put my finger on it right away.
You might want to go back to the ASUS site and download the newer firmware(.27) and do the same thing(install the zip inside the zip) That's the newest Official ASUS Firmware.

1) Rom manager is not compatible with Atrix 2. I would not use it. Why do you need it anyway??
You can use Atrix Bootstrapper to go into CWM recovery . Rest can be done there. Or you can use Boot Menu Manager.
2)Of course! it will still be there! the backup is saved on your SD Card. So as long as you don't format your SD Card. It will be there.

Rom Manager does work with Atrix2. If you're on Stock ICS, you can install CWM on every boot, then flash the Bionic recovery through Rom Manager. That will allow you to use the 1 touch backup in RM, just hit backup rom and everything does what it's supposed to.
Here is the CWM on every boot for Stock ICS.

when i restore to stock fom JB, it means downgrading the firmware right??

No, your Recovery will be wiped after you flash a new rom, but you can install it again and restore your ROM.
But when restoring a rom, make sure you ARE ON THE ROM you are restoring.
E.g. If you flash JB and want Stock ICS back with your backup. First flash the Stock ICS from RSD and then restore your backup from CWM on it.
Or Vice-Versa.
@41rw4lk, Thanks for rectifying that. I did not bother with Rom Manager much.

I don't think any recovery exist after flashing a new rom. We have a locked bootloader, so we can't replace the stock recovery.img, all of our recoveries hijack the boot process to work. CM10 and PA I believe have a built in recovery, and that's about as close as you'll get to having a recovery exist after flashing a rom.
As far as restoring from JB, I believe you can downgrade to ICS, but you'll have to look at the JB thread to be certain. I'm on AT&T so I haven't had an opportunity to try JB (officially). CM10 is based on JB, but for our phone with the locked bootloader, it's more of a pseudo experience and is based on our ICS framework.
As for bricking, there is always a chance to brick, that's part of the mod game, but if you read and pay attention to what you have and what you're doing, you'll be alright.

Yes. I will say though, if you're on an AT&T branded phone with AT&T firmware, do NOT try to flash the new JB FXZ. It doesn't matter who your carrier is, it matters what firmware your phone is using. So, if you're on AT&T then you need to make sure that the things you flash are for AT&T, or else you will brick and that will be then end of that.

there's a few, you'll just have to look. Most of the time, if something is not meant for AT&T, the devs will post in the description that it isn't compatible. If you want stock ICS back at anytime, you can do yourself a favor and make a backup of your stock ICS all setup the way you like it, so you can restore if needed. If all else fails, there is an Official ICS FXZ that will get you back to stock ICS.

You're killing me smalls. You're on ICS already, you're not downgrading anything, nor can you downgrade ie. Gingerbread. There is no Official JB for AT&T, so that's not an issue. CM10 is a JB based rom built on an ICS frame, (for our phone at least), and again, you're not downgrading.
To make a back up, boot in to CWM or whatever recovery you're using (not stock), and click backup. You might hit up the noob thread to get an idea of the terminology and basics for our device. Not trying to be rude, but you're running yourself in circles. You got to walk before you can run.

That's completely unmodified. (I tried just installing it in CWM. Think I probably bricked doing something silly...)
I pulled this as well, but I'm curious if you had to flash back to stock firmware and recovery to get it. I tried using a rooted stock rom and the software update screen would give me a "modified devices don't get updates" message. I actually had to have stock recovery and system installed so that it would download. Did you have to do the same thing?

What can I do to update OTA?
I played around with this a while ago (my flash counter is at 29 last time I checked).
I think you have a few options:
1) maybe unroot and that might remove the modified status
2) use heimdall or odin to flash back to unrooted stock, including stock recovery and boot.img
3) flash one of the rooted JB roms, either stock, cyanogen, or our very own Teamapexq rom
4) download the OTA or the JB rom from the web and repackage it yourself to a flashable zip.
Option 1 might not work. Option 2-4 will work, 4 would be the most fun.

Option 2 would probably be the most straightforward. Essentially, you are unrooting. I just remembered, Samsung has Kies which might restore it to stock. You can download it from their website.

Guys i was on Liquid smooth rom v2.5 before (used it with BMM on JB leak 1 china). I used atrix2bootstrapper to flash razr M boot image and got bootloop. I fxzd back and then reverted back to leak 1, rooted again and installed leak 3.. Now i'm on Leak 3 rooted. The question is i have not installed atrix2bootstrapper this time. Do i need to make any change to the logwrapper file? or shall i directly install BMM and start flashing rom (MIUI to be precise). Will it any way affect the logwrapper file or will it create another logwrapper.bin file after installing BMM. Hope reply will be soon :fingers-crossed:

If you haven't installed atrix2bootstrapper then, no, you don't have to edit the logwrapper file. Yes, you can just install bmm and start flashing.

I used the fastboot file(non-AT&T) leak 1. Before this i did go into AP fastboot, then recovery and formatted the system completely. Then fxzd it. Something strange did happen. The RSD lite said "status FAIL!". Then as soon as i removed the USB cable it booted automatically. Strangely enough it did boot into Leak1 JB after a whole 5minutes!. Regret using A2bootstrapper with BMM.

If you've flashed back to ICS via FXZ, then flash JB leak 1, then rooted and installed BMM then I don't think you'll need to do anything with the logwrapper. That procedure should only be necessary if you installed a2bootstrapper after flashing the FXZ. So, I guess the short answer is, no.

I am trying to update my Radio/modem file with the JB Android 4.3 Radio file. It requires that I install CWM 6.0.3.7. Can I install this alongside my TWRP 2.6.3.0 installation or as I have read, it will overwrite my TWRP recovery mode? If it will overwrite, how do I switch between? Just reflash through ODIN using PDA? That seems like a lot of work and the possibilities of breaking might be high just overwriting Customer Recoveries?
If I would install this JB Radio for Android 4.3, how would I go back to GB? I can't find a single GB Radio/Modem. Could I use Radio files for GB instead of wiping and installing stock GB ROM [No Root, No Custom Recovery, but it includes the GB Radio/modem]. The reason I am worried about this, if I need to load my original stock GB 2.3.6 backup with root from my nandroid, I would need the original GB Radio and the nandroid backup/restore feature doesn't include that. All advice is greatly appreciated.
The Radio Does Not Get Backed Up By Cwm/twrp Backup(nandroid) Method.

Just flash it with twrp. It'll work just like if you did it with cwm.
I have read that some of the zip files does work with TWRP as well. However I am interested in using the following Custom Rom [SuperLite AOKP JB 4.3 v1.0]. That installation requires CWM 6.0.3.7, because it will prevent the infamous black screen reboot issue. What about GB radio file & installing on top of or installing side by side TWRP & CWM?

Pick a recovery and use it. Backups are not cross compatible. If you make a backup with cwm it won't work with twrp.
You can flash radios with either. Just pick one.

If you have not already installed a 4.3 ROM, then you are recommended (nay, required) to use CWM 6.0.3.7 to do the initial wipe and install, after that you can switch to TWRP for any flashing after that.There is something that 6.0.3.7 does to the data partition that TWRP doesn't, on the initial setup. Once that is done, it doesn't matter. Flash the JB radio when you flash the 4.3 ROM. And going back to GB if you need to is fairly simple, just follow Vincom's guide. There are lots of flashable zips of GB radios you can use.
I am still a bit confused regarding TWRP & CWM being installed at the same time or side by side. So, let me get this straight. If I want to install JB 4.3 ROM, I must first boot into ODIN, install CWM through ODIN, reboot, boot into CWM, wipe the system, reboot, boot back into ODIN, install TWRP, reboot, boot into TWRP, install the JB 4.3 ROM, and finally preform the last reboot. Is this correct & it won't break either of the custom recoveries? However rpr69 said "switch back to TWRP." Are you inferring TWRP & CWM can be installed side by side? If so, how do I access one over the other?
Regarding GB's radio files:
Which of the following links is the Radio/modem files? Is it the second one? I know of them is the official stock ROM and the other requires the OTA updates. However the poster didn't include the OTA updates yet...

I know you posted but its confusing, let me simplify, I hope:
im assuming you have either cwm or twrp installed, if on stock read this.
you cannot have two recoveries installed at the sametime:
recovery install procedure:
if not on cwm6037 flash cwm6037 with what ever recovery you have now and reboot back into recovery.
then flash any custom jb4.3 rom, preferably latest cm10.2 nightly found here and reboot rom at least twice.
if you like cwm 6037 stay with it, I don't, or else just flash twrp 2.6.3.0 w/cwm 6037 and reboot back into recovery or rom.
now you can just stay w/the cm10.2 nightly you flashed with cwm 6037 or flash any other rom w/twrp 2.6.3.0 which is now your installed recovery.
that's it you should not have the reboot problems on any jb4.3 roms.

above recovery install procedure is only if a jb4.3 rom on its 2nd reboot just has a black screen and wont boot into rom, but 2nd boot does usually take longer than normal upto a full minute.
if flashing a rom or restoring from nandroid(recovery backup) prior to jb4.3 and then later decide to flash a jb4.3 rom you need todo above recovery installation procedure b4 flashing a jb4.3 rom.
restoring backups only work with whatever recovery they were made with, you cannot restore a cwm backup w/twrp recovery and vice a versa.
newest versions of recoveries should restore backups made with their older versions.
why do u want an old radio, they will not work w/jb roms
old radios are linked in the 1stop sticky under "old stuff".
installing the radio has nothing todo with the recovery you are using.
flash jb radios for jb roms which happen to be all the current roms.
reread the radio section in the 1stop sticky.
I linked this post in the recovery section of the 1stop sticky
Thank you vincom for explaining the process of using both CWM 6.0.3.7 & TWRP 2.6.3.0 together. I am familiar with backups ONLY working with their original customer recovery. I didn't even think about older versions of backups (not) working with newer custom recoveries. Was there an issue working with older backups in the past?
The reason I need the old GB Radio/Modem files, because when I have to return the phone to stock & load up my old Gingerbeard nandroid, I will be able to return it back to AT&T with the original Radio files and the original Gingerbeard OS. Anywho, thank you for the GB radio. I really appreciate it!

u can return any phone that has any stock firmware, with our phones that would be stock jb4.1.2 and using odin would be the way to do it , link in my sig. this is assuming your carrier used the latest firmware as with att and rogers.
I am with AT&T and I never got the official ICS or JB through updates. Actually, I thought ICS was discontinue, because it was bricking phones. Thus the stock ICS & JB Roms here were ported over?

nope, both are fine and are still available officially. You don't need gingerbread to return it.

I have to go to Samsung's website and download their Kies software to upgrade to Jelly Bean right? It won't be pushed out through Settings > About Phone > System Update then?
Or you can use Odin.

So if you're flashing 4.3 ROMs just use cwm? Went from twrp to cwm and back to twrp and am getting the same black boot screen on a slim 4.3 weekly.

To properly set everything up, you need to use the recommended CWM for 4.3, do a full factory wipe, and make sure that data is formatted. Then install the ROM and boot it up. Reboot to verify it works properly. Then you can go to TWRP 2.6.0.1 or later.
I've been using twrp since release and not had any issues why do we need cwm? What's the technical reasoning.

Didn't work
I followed this procedure exactly and it still didn't work.
I gave it ten minutes between boots and ended up having to pull the battery each of the three times I rebooted.
Fortunately I've gotten into the habit of making a backup before flashing, so it was just a loss of 45 minutes of my evening.
I was trying to get the latest CM10.2 Stable build. Has anyone gotten this thing to flash and work as well as 10.1.3 RC2 or 10.1.3 Final? This issue started for me with the second 10.2 Nightly.

Just NOW began seeing the replies to the main post. I don't have ANOTHER fresh install in me: I've already had to do that twice with the 2012 Nexus7 and once with the Skyrocket in the last six weeks.
