I used this solution, but in the last update, gave problem, brick my phone. Screwed up my boot loader (I think) to restart enters only in fastboot mode. To use the phone, I have to reboot and choose Normal Boot.
Does anyone have a solution to this problem?
PS: I did the reflash with stock rom 4.1.2 XT925, error occurs in 'partition' but finishes installing the rom. KK updated to the stock, but the above mentioned problem remains.
Another, forgot to put in the post open1your1eyes0 that this solution is only for the XT926. That screwed with my phone.
Sorry for my English.
Nobody?

It explains about 3 posts down in that thread how to use with 925. Either way, you'll need to flash stock FW to get you started fresh.

Hey guys,
Tried installing ICS with my rooted ATRIX2. It failed so I did some reading found out you had to unroot to update. Went back unrooted and still the update fails. I rooted with casual public beta. Unrooted using the one click method. No idea how to flash my phone to a different rom. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Trying to update and root again.

So you was rooted on 2.3.6 right?
If so you need to just fxz back to gb 2.3.6, and then try the ota. But beware, the ota has no fxz to save you in case of a screw up.
Fxz found here:

Also this should be in Q&A

Even if you have unrooted, if you deleted any of the stock apps, or still have a custom recovery set up at boot, then the update won't work. Like previously stated, you need to FXZ back to completely stock gingerbread, then run the update. I had the same issue.

Delete the files that installed by bootstrap recovery app if you have installed it before.

Alright thanks guys. And yes I was rooted on 2.3.6. Now should I remove my micro SD when I downgrade?

question about update to ICS
Noticed a lot of people having problems with Battery( not charging) going dead quickly due to media files. any comments would be helpful and Thanks.
Ok i followed all the steps loaded my phone into fastboot flash, installed the drivers, download rsd lite 5.7, and I cant get RSD Lite to recognize my phone. I uninstalled and re installed the necessary drivers and still nothing. I also noticed when picking a file in RSD Lite when I go to select a file there are two. (edison-user 2.3.6 5.5.1-175_EDMR1.25 5.51.175.25 release-keys2011-11-16 23:52 Off.Bld LUD_EDISON_R1D7_PATCH_36_111116_2336 crh1090280_M570_PC_CARD_RAIN) or (ndp). I am assuming that I need to flash the first file.
Any help on where I went wrong or why it isnt recognizing my phone would be greatly appreciated. Sorry I am a noob to modding phones. I promise I learn quickly and appreciate your patience.

Did you turn on USB debugging before going into AP fastboot?

Here's phone info prior to the mess:
v21y
mokeeOS
latest gb harsh kernel
CWM v5.0.2.0
I went ahead and tried to flash a new rom and a new kernel. I guess it wasn't compatible and got stuck on boot animation for over 30mins. So i thought I'd pulled the battery. I did a nandroid restore (used it before and works) and it wont boot into the system. It just goes back to recovery.
Then I tried to flash mokeeOS and harsh kernel. After rebooting it goes back into recovery.
I tried many roms / kernels that previously work and it still goes back to recovery. I tried nvflashing recoveries (CWM touch, twrp), same thing happens. Now what should I do?
update: I flashed stock recovery. It shows an arrow going out the box and an android.
update: this clean up batch tool fixed it for me: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24635755
Never heard you say you wiped/formatted anything
if not there will be residue from your old ROM/kernel and you may have the same situation

If you have an AT&T branded phone, you'll need to flash the FXZ in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1961310
For any other Atrix 2, you'll need to look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1934874
If you don't know how to flash an FXZ, read this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1909319
As well as JRW 28's beginner's guide linked in the op of that ^ thread.
It is extremely important that you have the correct FXZ for your phone's model. Also thoroughly read up on what you are attempting to do to your phone to avoid (as much as possible) these types of issues.
Brought to you by time and relative dimensions in space.
Thanks a ton...let the flashing begin

I was having some issues with said otapkg. It kept hanging on me. I found a way to revert the files it checks back to stock and the ota went thru. Prior to doing this I had flashed the new firmware and radios.

I wrestled with it for a little while last night and gave up. I was on stock with twrp, faux kernel, and some xposed modules but not much else. I had also frozen some bloat, which I suspect to be the problem. I tried reverting to the stock kernel, recovery, flashing everything manually, defrosting the bloatware, you name it. Still can't get the damn thing to take.
I tried to install twice with stock recovery and kernel. Only change was frozen isis wallet. Failed both times. Put everything back to my original settings, insecure kernel and twrp and flashed the firmware zips posted on the forum. Worked, but software version is still 1.12

Software won't change till you flash a new based Rom as there r some already out that have been updated.

I had a different, but similar error.
Do you have any mods? I had a quick toggle for Power Save that stopped mine. You can leave stuff frozen, you just need a stock system. I luckily had a nandroid of stock.

Never mind, I think i have it figured out. I removed several Verizon apps with TB, Pretty sure that's the issue. Forgot all about removing those. Getting old and memory's going fast.
What I ended up doing was taking apps that I modded and replacing back all with stock ones from the system dump. It was kind of a pita but it allowed me to install the ota

Well if you want to troubleshoot it I would start by flashing my ruu that's posted. See if you get 4g on your phone with that.

I just now am getting familiar with what an RUU is and from my understanding so far there's 2 types? 1. radio upgrade unit & 2. rom upgrade utility. Which is yours? I'm not really looking forward to flashing roms atm, just looking for something quick like flashing some firmware that doesn't overwrite my entire system partition 'IF' possible. If not then am I stuck with flashing what appears to be a new rom? Or do I have another option? Thanks for reply!
Edit: Also I forgot to include that I'm S-OFF with bootloader unlocked & permanent root w TWRP recovery, would this act like one of Samsungs crappy OTA's and re-lock my phone IF it was the ROM thing I mentioned above rather than just Radio Firmware?

And ruu is an ruu. It is both the stock rom and firmware included. There are reset parameters that a factory reset on stock recovery can do that twrp etc are not.
This will not affect your lock or s off status and it's pre rooted. Also, there's not really "permanent root" on any phone. More so with s off you have the ability to flash su and root.
