I just perm rooted my phone with the gfree method and flash a engineering hboot. I found out I cannot install any apps from the market any more, always says installation unsuccessful. tried to clear the market and market update data, unmounted the SD, but still cannot solve the problem.
and i also found out that I cannot move my previous installed apps from my SD back to the phone any more. How can I solve this problem, many thanks......

try going to : settings > application > all > market > Clear Data/Clear Cache > reboot : see if that helps
Yea, I already did that, does not help
If your on cm7 sometimes when you have it set so the apps install to an external source it won't work if its set to automatic it will work.

but i did not flash the cm7 rom. and i still cannot install any apps even i unmount my SD card. it is a stock rom with permroot and engineering hboot.
I cannot even be able to move the apps on sd back to the phone, not sure if this is a sd problem. help please....
Install a custom rom. After root some of the my touch 4g's have problems when done rooting. I couldn't download any thing and my phone became really laggy. Installed cm7 and all was well.

is CM7 stable? I read many questions on the CM7 thread. I prefer stability instead of performance for my phone.

Yup I'm running cm7 rc3. stable and fast. haven't had any issues yet and I'm one of those who can't leave well enough alone, I'm always installing and messing around with it.

Oh GOD, i think i just bricked my phone. I did a factory reset and i kept on getting the laugher error problem, then i reset again. now my phone is totally dead. it is not charging, cannot turned on at all... Is it possible to fix it?
From what I have read, no. if you can get it on again and get to hboot you might be able to fix it if you have the eng hboot. Or maybe into recovery and flash a back up or pd15 img. Id take the battery out and let sit put it back in and see what happens.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
yeah....
i took out the battery and let it sit for a while, now i can turn my phone back on again!!! just flashed the cm7, everything seems running fine now. Thanks for all the help so far.
BTW, i did a quadrant test, it seems the score is similar with my previous stock 2.2.1 rom, it is about 1650. I guess this is a bit low from what i read in the forum.
Yeah you can go to settings then cm settings and under performance you can over clock a little bit and get really high score. or under clock for better battery life. mine will score in the 2k range when over clocked.
Just be careful over clocking can cause stress on the processor and damage it.
Glad its working for ya!

I've re-installed Atrix 4 times on my phone, each time doing a factory reset, clearing cache, and Dalvik cache. I've had random reboots/shutdowns on every install of Alien Build #4 and Aura 1.1.3.8. One running Atrix stock kernal, 2 using faux's kernal 0.1.6 (one non-oc, one oc), and one using faux's OC 0.1.7. Now I'm running Aura 1.1.3 Build #8 Deblurred. All with random reboots and shutdowns.
I've noticed I never get a random reboot while I'm charging, only while on battery. I've calibrated my battery several times so it's not lack of juice. Sometimes it just reboots, other times it shuts down and doesn't reboot so I have to turn on the phone, though most of the time the screen won't turn on and the phone won't shut off so I have to take out the battery to turn on the phone. I've tried uninstalling SetCPU, disabling profiles, and setting the max clock to 1000mhz. None of this helped.
On the last Alien install (now I'm running Aura) I was having even more problems but they only happened on that install:
1. I got an error when trying to boot in red: "Unrecoverable Bootloader error (0x00000004)" though I was able to turn the phone off and reboot normally.
2. I got an error about 5 times in a row while trying to boot, I forgot the exact text but something along the lines of "Unable to load radio module (0)". I had to take out the battery and try about 5 times till it would boot properly.
3. After this, I was unable to boot into Recovery through the volume buttons, I'd press down till I got the Android Recovery, then press up and it'd hang there. It works now for some reason.
I installed Alien right when I got my phone so I'm unsure if random reboots happen stock. Also my phone gets really warm when I'm using it, I look in SetCPU and the CPU temp is anywhere from 42 to 57 C. Does anyone else's phone get this hot?
I would just take it back to Best Buy and get a new one cause I have a protection plan with them, but my phone is unlocked which voids the warranty.
Does anyone know what could be causing all of these issues and how to fix them?
Thanks for the help, XDA is great!
Im by no means a expert...but I'm currently running AURA 1.1.3#8 debloat and all is well on my phone....I would recommend performing a Ti backup on ur aps and doing a factory reset to see if the problem persists....if it does I would take it back...if not reinstall through CWM wiping devalk cache then a full data wipe then install AURA and reboot all in CWM ....btw I'm running Rom Racers CWM also. Hope you can get it figured out!

I would have just taken it in but my phone is unlocked, rooted, and using Romracers CWM so I doubt Best But will accept it. I've tried all of this. I'm going to try CM7 Beta2, if the problem still persists I don't know what to do cause Best Buy won't accept it when they see the Unlocked at the top of the bootloader. It works fine when it's charging but so far no matter what I've tried I always got reboots. Does your phone get hot? Can you check what temps you get in SetCPU? Thanks for the suggestions btw.
My phone has never gotten over 33*....Try going back to stock gingerbread and see if the problems persist there and if not then u can proceed forward.....that way you can rule out if the problem is the phone or a certain build and a bug you have picked up
Sorry I meant 39* on phone temp
I went into my settings>widow and turned it off then rebooted, seemed to work, I also would get random reboots after a fresh install. Like at least 20x. But try that. Worked for me.

33? Wow, my phone never goes below 42C, it's usually around 49-50C. How do you return to stock gingerbread like the phone came with? All I've found was flashing the SBF through RDA, is there any way to do it with CWM so it's safer? Sorry for the noobiness, I'm new to the Atrix, is there a way to completely restore the phone to stock (stock gingerbread, locked bootloader, no CWM)?
Edit: I just flashed CM7 pre-beta 2, going to see how this works, hopefully it fixes my problems.
performing a data wipe/factory reset in CWM should put you completely back to stock. It wont matter that you have a UL bootloader or rooted.

Are you doing a factory data/reset wipe cache and wipe dalvik step after you install a new rom? Do the same wipe steps before and after rom flash. If you are doing this then it sounds like a hardware problem or your bl got thrashed unlocking it.

It will only reset to the current rom defaults. If you have cm7 or alien flashed, It will revert back cm7 or alien. Doesn't effect root or bootloader. If the rom is pre rooted it stays rooted even after a full wipe.

That sounds highly possible as it happens with each install and I am doing a factory reset, cache wipe, and dalvik cache wipe with each install. If ran the unlocking script again would it erase the bootloader and re-install it to fix that?
Edit: I just got another "Unrecoverable Bootloader error (0x00000004)" error, I'm going to re-run the script.

No don't. The script doesn't update the boitloader I don't think. Did you use the ota to get gingerbread?
If the bl is fubared and your not on the legit ota you can rsd to 1.83 and start over. If you are on the ota update then all you can use is cwm(safely)

My phone came shipped with 2.3.4 Gingerbread, I never used the OTA update. I re-ran the script and got another random reboot.
Edit: I'm flashing the official 2.3.4 SBF from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125944
I'll let you all know how things went.
From what I understand ...once u are on 2.3.4 if u try to flashback to. 83 it will hard brick you...definitely flash back to stock gingerbread 2.3.4 and hopefully that will solve your problems ....good luck
I installed Aura 1.1.3 Debloat #7 two days ago and my phone rebooted by itself today. I had it in my pocket, then I took it out and it was loading. I thought I might have pushed something when moving, but maybe it is related to the rom.
Okay, I flashed 2.3.4 with pudding boot loader unlocked and Romracer CWM Recovery. I'm going to install Alien and faux's kernal, hope flashing 2.3.4 fixed this and it's not a hardware issue.
Did you experience any problems while you were on 2.3.4 or did you flash straight to alien afterwards ...hope you get your problems figured out! Make a backup of the 2.3.4 flash also so if you do experience any problems you can always flash back

I flashed straight to Alien when I got the phone so I'm not sure it stock Gingerbread had problems. I just flashed 2.3.4 with pudding unlocked bootloader, Romracer's CWM, and finished installing Atrix Build 4 and faux's kernal 0.1.7. I'm going to take the phone off the charger (I only get reboots and shutdowns while on battery), and start installing my apps, restoring contacts, messages, and see if I have any problems. I'm not going to install SetCPU and mess with profiles and undervolting till I know I'm good.
I'll report how it's going tomorrow morning (usually by that time I get at least 5 to 10 random reboots/shutdowns). If this doesn't fix it then I'm going to flash the stock 2.3.4 SBF so they don't know I messed around with the device and take it back to Best Buy to get a replacement.

That's the one I flashed yesterday. Follow the install instructions posted in the lithium miui thread.
No app drawer on miui, so using launcher pro. With launcher pro, the widgets are working, which weren't for some reason on the stock launcher.
Make sure you let your phone rest the full 8 and 4 mins, I don't know why but I did, and apparently it's important.
GPS also works, but I had to play with it to get it going.

also i need to disable voodoo lagfix right? Because I just did it...
i'm going to go ahead and flash the one i linked to, it seems to look better. Thanks for the help.
edit:
am i meant to follow THESE instructions?
cashyftw said:
Lets get this out of the way first. I am not responsible if you screw up your phone, but you are probably here because you already screwed up your phone. I have now been through this several times over the last few days. Some will say this process is overkill, but there is no denying that it always works, so please refrain from stating the obvious.
If you have installed or updated CM7/MIUI and lost your baseband, IMEI, or both, this should help you. Due to the amount of people currently having this problem, I would recommend this be stickied at least temporarily until things are straightened out, so people can find it easily.
For Windows only, I do not have a Mac.
Step 1 - Read the entire post and understand everything involved before you attempt this. This is a long ride, probably 30-40 minutes from start to end. This is not for new people, and will assume you have a certain amount of knowledge because you attempted to flash CM7/MIUI.
DO NOT SKIP OR SHORTCUT ANY STEP IN THIS PROCESS, UNLESS I SPECIFICALLY STATED YOU MET THE CRITERIA TO DO SO. DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT TRYING THIS UNLESS YOU CAN REACH DOWNLOAD MODE AND RECOVERY USING BUTTONS WITH THE PHONE OFF!
Step 2 - Gather what you need...
1 - The AIO Vibrant Toolbox : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=954509
Install according to directions in the post. Donate to this guy. He spent alot of time making this easy for you to do.
2 - The old CM7 install files : http://www.mediafire.com/?gn4qoonoe3cjyp6
Unzip to a location that is easy to get to.
3 - The new version of CM7/MIUI you want to install, from the thread of your choice. Donate to the developer you are using, they spend alot of their free time making your phone better. They don't get paid for it, and they dont charge you for it.
4 - Your phone, with a full battery.
Step 3 - Odin to JFD and install Clockwork 2.x
1 - Fire up the AIO Toolbox. Do not connect your phone yet, but power it down and pull your battery. See that sticker under it that says IMEI? Write it down! You will be referencing it a few times throughout the process. Start Odin and select your pit and pda files, they should automatically come up if you are using the toolbox. Hold down your volume up and down buttons, and insert your USB cable, then insert your battery. You should go to download mode, and see Odin connect. Hit start and let it fly. Once it reboots, unplug your phone. Go to settings/about phone and you should have a JFD baseband. Hit status, and check your IMEI. See how it matches the one you wrote down? Yay! Move on to the next item. If it does not, you have some reading to do because you really screwed something up, and it is beyond my power to help you...
2 - Mount phone and put the following files on the root of the sd card:
vibrant-efsbackup.zip (if you already have a backup/efs folder on your sd card you do not need this)
cm7-vibrant-initial-20110224.zip
The zip file of the new CM7/MIUI rom you want to flash.
3 - Download ROM Manager and install clockwork recovery 2.x (if you already have the update.zip on your sd card, which you should, you can also skip this) and power down your phone.
4 - Boot into recovery using the 3 button method (holding volume up and down and power, releasing power when the word VIbrant appears on your screen), hit reinstall packages, you may have to hit it twice to get to clockwork recovery. Choose to install zip from sd card, and select vibrant-efsbackup.zip. Let it do its thing. Then select reboot, and when it does, check your sd card for a backup/efs folder. Got it? Good. Power down the phone. (Obviously, if you already have the efs backup completed, you could have skipped this step.)
Step 4 - Install Clockwork 3.x and Old CM7
1 - Fire up the AIO Toolbox. Do not connect your phone yet, but pull your battery. Start Odin and hit the pda button, select the file cm7-vibrant-initial-kernel.tar from the CM7 package you unzipped (Remember, in a place that is easy to find). THIS IS IMPORTANT - UNCHECK AUTO REBOOT!!! Hold down your volume up and down buttons, and insert your USB cable, then insert your battery. You should enter download mode, and see Odin connect. Hit start and let it fly. Once it is finished, pull the usb cable. With the download mode screen still on your phone, boot into recovery using the 3 button method. You should now be in clockwork recovery 3.x. Move on to the next item! If you did not get in, you can try to pull your battery, replace it and boot into recovery from there. If you still can't get there, you get to go where the people who do not properly follow instructions go... back to Step 1.
2 - In clockwork 3.x, choose factory reset, and let it do it's thing. Then go to mounts and storage, and format system, data, and cache. Choose install zip from sd card and choose cm7-vibrant-initial -20110224.zip. As it is installing, one of the last things you see should be "restoring efs". Hit reboot when finished, and boot into CM7. When it boots, make sure you toggle the lockscreen a couple times so it connects to service. Check baseband and IMEI again. Baseband should have changed, but it does not matter until we get to where we are going. IMEI still the same right? Awesome! Power down the phone, move to the next step! It's not? You my friend, get to meet all your other friends back at Step 1.
Step 5 - Installing what you really want...
1 - Boot into recovery using the 3 button combo. Do a factory reset, wipe cache partition, go to advanced and wipe Dalvik cache. Choose install zip from sd card, and pick that shiny new version of CM7/MIUI you picked out. You are almost there. Flash it! Reboot, and when it comes back up, take note of what time it is and DO NOT TOUCH THE PHONE FOR 15 MINUTES. You have no idea the amount of bugs this squashes. After that, check the baseband and IMEI, even though you already know it is right anyway. If it is not, do i have to say it again? You know where you are going...
2 - Destroy the paper you wrote your IMEI on, you would not want that info in the wrong hands...
3 - Enjoy your new rom
FAQ:
Q: I did everything you said, and it did not work!
A: You either skipped a step, or did not stop at the point I told you you were screwed.
Q: No, seriously, I did everything you said!
A: Seriously, I have done this 5 times in the past 3 days, and it worked every time.
Q: I installed CM7 nightly #9,10,or 11 with this method, and I have no sound on calls. What gives?
A: These builds have known issues with in call audio. Flash CM7.1
Q: Once I am on CM7/MIUI, do I have to do this every time or can I update normally?
A: Once you are on CM7 or MIUI with the proper IMEI and a good baseband, you should be able to update via the rom posting instructions. If you decided to switch from CM7 to MIUI or vice versa, I would go back to this process to get your initial installation.
Q: I installed CM7.1 and then tried to go to MIUI, and lost everything again, what happened?
A: There are changes betweeen CM7 to 7.1 that have made this difficult due to compatability issues, which is why I recommend doing this process again if you want to switch between the two.
Q: I thought there was an easier way to do this, why so many steps?
Read the first paragraph of the post, but I guess that is also asking too much...

Just install the one you linked to, the one direct from miui.us.
The other Lithium one looks like it's customized, overclock kernal, stuff like that.
I disabled vodoo lag fix. I odin back to 2.1. Then I installed stock 2.2.
Then I followed the instructions exactly. Wipe dalvic cashe, format system/data/cache, wipe factory restore, etc etc.
Not sure if I had to install 2.2 first, but I did anyway since the install instructions were for upgrading from a 2.2 rom and not a 2.1 rom.
thanks for the help. I'm on MIUI now, just gotta wait the total 12 mins for it to settle down. ;P
@xriderx66, please will you be kind enough to let me know your experience with the MIUI. i am strongly thinking of flashing same rom.
Thanks in advance.
No, that lengthy install instruction is outdated

You don't have to install via those long instructions anymore. Apparently those are outdated.
Just manually backup your /efs and keep a copy on your computer, just because everyone should have a copy of their /efs folder and nv_data.bin, otherwise if you run into trouble you can lose your IMEI.
Then follow these simple instructions as outlined by user nickmcminn60 for his Lithium MiUi rom, but it worked for the regular MiUi also:
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS (For Lithium and SS-11 If you are on MIUI, CM-7 or a 2.2)
-Wipe Dalvik Cache
-Wipe Cache Partition
-Wipe Data/Factory Reset
-Format-System, Cache and Data (Located under "Mounts & Storage)
-Flash LE Lithium (EDIT by me samsungvibrant..OR THE STOCK VERSION OF MIUI could be flashed here)
-Fix Permissions
-Reboot and Let Settle For 8 Min
-Reboot again Let Set For 4 Min..
No need to do the longer install process you had mentioned in the prior post.

It's a very smooth rom, it has fast animations and i love em'
The only thing bugging me right now is battery life drains way faster than what i'm used to. I'll find out more on calibrating the battery/changing kernels etc.

From what I have seen Lithium is actually meant to be more of a development ROM for new features. The other ROM made by that developer is the SS series which is meant to be more of a daily driver (eg. more stable), and it has additional tweaks from the official MIUI release to try to achieve things like better battery life as well as a OC or UVable kernel.
SS can be found here:

Unrelated to the OP, but if you're using Launcher Pro you're missing out on one of the best aspects of MIUI: No App Drawer! Instead you organize your apps into folders on the Home page. It makes you wonder why there ever was an app drawer. Seems like a silly concept now that I've been using MIUI for a while.

I'm just writing this quick (somewhat) noob-proof guide, because some people are asking questions still.
Requirements: 8.6.5.19 WW Firmware version (or one with the App Backup application)
Get Root:
1. Download and install RazorClaw app on your device (http://androidroot.mobi/2011/11/14/introducing-razorclaw-v1/)
2. After install run the app, read the info and press "Root me nao!"
3. If successful, SuperUser app should appear in the app list (This needs to be updated via Market link)
Note:
by wolf849
--install option is not working for some reason on TF101G and su needs to be installed manually after temp root .

Install Custom Recovery (CWM):
0. This comes after rooting, not before!!!
1. Download Recovery Installer app on your device (Link by gnufabio)
2. Install app, run, click to install recovery
3. Device reboots, and if successful, it installs recovery and boots back into OS.
Install Custom Rom:
0.Download the ROM and check MD5sum (always do that) - free programs canb be found everywhere to check. When done, put it on your MicroSD card, not the internal memory (therefore MicroSD card needed )
1. Reboot to CWM you just installed (I used Transformer reboot to recovery app)
2. BACKUP!!! current ROM (click on backup/restore option in CWM) - navigate with volume buttons, power button.
3. When backup finished, choose Install .zip from SD Card, choose the file you have downloaded - wait for the process, then reboot.
4. Done
- More information regarding flashing ROMs, addons can be fount in the Development forum.
If you want to (Do it! ) - Thank (and buy a beer) to all the developers, who made this possible!!!
Followed these steps and worked flawlessly! Running overclocked 1.5ghz on Revolver ROM / Clemsen 21 kernel with my newly rooted B7O SBK2. Smokin fast, no force closes, and smooth as silk. RayMan and his team at Android Root Mobi are great! I was shocked to see the breakthrough in rooting SBK2 devices yesterday. Jumped on it and it's the easiest root and custom ROM install I have ever done (previous experience with Nook Color, Viewsonic Gtab, Acer A500). Installed automatic Airplane mode app and getting amazing battery results. Keyboard doc is performing great too!

Can you tell me what app is that exactly? Thanks!
Excelant informatie, didn't know it was SO easy to root (still used to the HTC Hero way) you confinsed me to get root and install revolver rom (mostly for the battery life!) Thanks again
Please tell me I can do this on my EEE Pad Slider.....
Thanks in advance -

I opened the URL referenced in the OP and saw that the Slider will be tested soon. Please disregard my post.

Oh wow thanks! I originally just thought the B70+ can just only be rooted and not be able to install a custom recovery and custom rom too.
This is awesome. It makes my purchase of a TF that much sweeter.

Yes, this is the one I was referring to above. It works well for me. When using CPU Spy app, I am getting great "deep sleep" results using Auto Airplane Mode app.
Don't see why you would use that app sinse it's fixed in the new firmware update?
Excellent root guide
Just "rooted" my TF; so smooth I attempted it twice! Couldn't believe it was so painless. Congrats and kudos to all involved. Just one simple question, most likely been asked before so I apoligise in advance; when firmare is updated, does device have to be re-rooted or will it carry over?
I rooted and installed Revolver rom on my B70 a few days ago using this method and did a and factory reset, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache before updating the zip. Everything works fine though, but is this the correct procedure? For future falshes: do I need to wipe again in CWM after the zip update? Thanks.
If you're just updating the same ROM no need to wipe. It's recommended of you're switching to a different ROM that you do a full wipe
ZOMG... you guys are freaking AMAZINg. i was soooo disappointed when i found out the B70+ weren't rootable. but you guys saved me from selling this for soemthing else!!! Look for some beer moneys coming your way!

Not necessarily. I tested both and using this app gave me another 10% efficiency in battery. This app gives me a fail safe sleep solution no matter what. Been using TF101 in dock since 7am this morning for email, stock quotes, etc. Using about 15 minutes per hour. After bout 6 hours dock is at 94% and tablet at 99%. Maybe the firmware will do that, but this app is gold for me. I have a B7O SBK2 which I rooted on Monday with Razor. Using Revolver and Revolver Parts. Overclocked with Prime kernel. Running 1.5gz with profiles using SetCPU. Milking everything out of this thing possible and it's flawless! I probably will not put on the charger until Friday. Watched an hour of Netflix last night with very little battery drain. With a "performance" profile in SetCPU at 1.5gz, I get a 3350 Quadrant test score. My normal profile is "interactive". Gotta go!! Have a good day.
I get a parsing error everytime I attempt to run the APK. Any ideas? I really want my device rooted.
thanks so much....
immediately root n install custom rom....

I was having the same problem. Install All the firmware updates first. Then run the App.

Just downloaded it and ran it, succes! Rooted thanks!
ps xredbeardx and nikkobenson, try redownloading it using an other browser on your PC and transfur it to your SD card instead of the SSD.
this is the easiest rooting procedure I've ever used for ANY device. BUT I desperately need to UNROOT my device. I rooted three nights ago, my Transformer 's screen is messing up and I really need to return it to the seller which I purchased it from, but I don't want to do so with a rooted device. PLEEEEASEEE tell me you guys can help me unroot? I have B70 device. Thanks so much for any help you can provide. You will seriously make my year and save me $330

I'm interested to know this too. I've just bought a Transformer so I guess it'll be B70 or higher, so if something does go wrong, like the device bricks or we need to claim on warranty, how can we go about fixing it? Apparently NVflash doesn't work, is there an alternative? :/
Hello,
extremely sorry i am a noob and i cannot actually post in the development section so i thought i would let every 1 know about a few bugs i've com accross in the rempuzzle 2.43 rom:
1. when transfering files from bluetooth the Rom keeps Re-Booting for no reason at all it just Re-boots while transfering of files
2. and also the few links which have been replaced with the torrents are not working i tried digital battery, wil etc results came of not even a single Kbps tranfer due to not a single seeder on the torrent, if not i would like to recommend a few sites;
speedyshare . com
Fileden . com
here u can upload the links they will expire but it takes atleast 6 months for a link to actually expire on speedyshare according to my own experience of uploading
hope i dont piss any one here, i love this forum.
thank you
Hi. I cant help really other than to suggest a clean reflash,I.e. wipe system,data,cache and dalvik cache then reflash.
1. I don't and have never used Bluetooth transferring,sorry.
2. Kylon has a file sharing host and the torrent is a back up for when his limit is reached on the hosting,it will be reset soon I think so then all the links will be available.
MANCHESTER together UNITED forever
Thank you very much, and actually i have done what u are talking about complete flash even tried completely rooting the phone from scratch by installing ruu exe files etc. but the problem stil remains.

If it's a problem unique to you and other users haven't reported it too (check the RemPuzzle thread), then it could be a bad flash. Try reflashing it (check md5sum before flashing). It the problem still exists, then we'll have to look at other possibilities. Also, did you transfer app data back to this ROM using Titanium Backup/My Backup Pro after flashing? And did you wipe dalvik cache after the flash?

well i did not clear the delvic cache after the flash but i did clear it before flashing i even tried completely re rooting the cellphone by installing ruu then rooting in through unrevoked with custom recovery i.e. cwm 5x and then going onwards to flashing and all... but still the problem persists well m trying some other rom just to check if the charging fixes or it remains the same in other roms as well if it does then it means it will the fault of my cell phone not the rom so i'll get back to you soon enough
and thanx alot
