I have the Beta5 2.3.4 on my Atrix. Is there anything wrong or could go wrong going from beta to new stock 2.3.4. What's a good guide to follow to get up to that point?
FYI: Atrix (ATT) is Rooted and Unlocked
I would just download the stock images from kennethpenn's website, and then fastboot flash them onto the phone. There might be an easier way though
Yeah basicly the common suggestions are you flash to a stock image before going through and updating. You may be able to find a SBF image in the development forum.

k, sounds like a plan then. I think I'll just flash to stock like bearsfan172 suggested. I don't think I'll run into issues.
seems to be working fine

Is it safe to nand flash back to stock-rooted FroYo from leaked deodexed Gingerbread? I ask because I keep reading about folks needing to sbf to get back and the inability to flash other ROMs from the leaked GB. I guess what I'm not clear on is what the bootloader version matters, especially related to nand backup.

That's a great question.. I would like to know, too.
from what i have read on another forum, you need to sbf due to the fact that the kernels are different.
No it is not safe you will brick your device.

You flashed from gb 2.3.3 leak, back to froyo?

He flashed the madderstock.zip file. This is almost exactly the same as an sbf except it is in zip form. You CANNOT flash anything else from froyo or you WILL brick your device

If he got it from the TBH app it is the full system 2.3. 340monster zip. It CAN be flashed to get back to froyo BUT:
1) Maderstock zip CANNOT? They are two different filrs.
2)) if you want to go back to Gingerbread and you used the monster zip, you MUST sbf before doing so or you will likely soft brick your phone.
All this has been tried by experienced folks so the rest of us don't get surprises.

I just traded some one an HD7 for this MyTouch 4G.... Yayyy, back to Android ! Well, they already have it rooted and everything, but I like to start from scratch when I am modding my phones. I am coming from a Cliq so I'm not familiar with HTC. How should I go about unrooting the phone? And where should I start in the forum while trying to get familiar with modding this phone?
If it's already rooted, why unroot it? I would just make sure the latest recovery is installed, wipe it, and flash whatever ROM you want.
I'd you are looking to mod it... then you want to keep it rooted.
Its a good thing. You can even run the stock rom and make backups of all your apps and settings.
Root is good!

+1....As Rockstarar said, the pd15img makes you go back to being unrooted. The pd15img is the stock OS image and the thread will on that will explain how to flash it.
After that I'd say check out the "Guide to permaroot" thread, that will explain the process in getting rooted permanently. Next you should check out the thread for clockworkmod Recovery 3.0.0.6, thats a version that enables us to flash both 2.2 and 2.3 base roms. Alot of ppl miss that thread and end up using the wrong recovery to flash roms and as a result they get boot loops.
After that you're good to go! Got alot of options in the development section to choose from, so pick ur poison
I remember when I jus started this thing I had no clue where to start so that should give you a nice guideline on how to get going
Thanks!! I can't wait to get started =P.
Good luck!
Ok look for a lil help maybe advice.

One way would be to sbf to froyo and then upgrade via ota. I don't know if there is a gingerbread sbf out there. Search the forum for how to sbf and google for the file.

Just not looking for rom at this time I just want stock rooted gb
Just gotta do research

Yes roms in the developement section here can all usually be flashed through cwm unless otherwise stated. And I've never needed to unroot, but odin is a windows gui for flashing tar's(which are roms usually official and modems). You use Odin when you want to go back to complete stock, or modems usually. You can do other things with Odin such as flash custom recoveries like cwm. Odin is your bestfriend if you mess something up, always make sure to use a premium blackberry or other thick cable besides the one that came with the phone when using odin.(most people have difficulties with stock cable.)

Don't know how that's possible. Perhaps you can find an APK of the market through the web browser and it will install...
Yes it was a mistake.

I knew it was a mistake
But I would like to keep it... it also won't download... I bought it used... do you guys think it was rooted once with an unlock bootloader?... would this happen if someone try to get it back stock to resell??? I don't know...
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
Is it the stock rom? Check under the about tablet. If it has root then You might need to download the g apps zip from here then install that through CWM. If not you can just search for the APK and get it online somewhere.

Install the apk.

No mistake. It's a great tab. If used, read up and return it to stock condition. Or load a ROM from the dev section. You'll get the market back.
Thanks... that's what I was planning.. get a custom rom, I for sure know this will fix it... I'm confuse on how to set up my laptop with sdk.... I seen instructions that are pretty straight forward... but afraid I might mess up my laptop or the tablet
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
I hardly think it's a mistake just because you have to do a little work. Just means you'll like it more later on.
I don't think the tab is rooted... there's no superuser... plus the recovery has these options only... reboot, update from USB, factory reset, clear cache... something like that... just confuse on my after factory reset in recovery I still don't have market... ill upload a picture of all the app that's preinstall after factory reset in recovery...

I think the first thing you should do is a factory reset. If that doesn't get your Market back then flash the stock images from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1049485
After you get the stock images on there then you can think about rooting and custom ROMs if you want to but if stock does what you want then just stick there at the moment.
Thanks, I'm not familiar with sdk adb and all the command thing in second post in the link you provide burd... but give me 24hrs to figure this... I might need help later...
I am attempting to set up my computer... will post my update soon

Here is a guide I used when I wanted to flash the US images on my UK Xoom. The guide will also get you to root but you don't have to go that far if you don't want to.
Now, the commands will all be the same but the guide may be a bit out of date with image names and such as it's from February. Make sure you read everything and if you are planning to root/flash custom ROMs DO NOT relock your bootloader.
Edit: changed guide URL to newer one provided by okantomi

I don't think it's a mistake as long as you got a good deal on it.
$280.... got it off of Craigslist... they were old nice people that speak little english... he said he let his friend factory reset it... I bet my tablet was unlock and rooted once or he had someone with little knowledge to attempt the procedure to get it back stock so he can resell it... oh well its my problem now... I will fix it... I hope
