i bought a motorola atrix off ebay knowing it had cyanogenmod on it, i was just wondering how to flash back to stock rom? a guide or anything like that would be appreciated. thanks.
Huummm... since you're on Orange... flash HomeBase ROM w/ blur???? i would say fruitcake, but I don't think there is a international fruitcake.
I actually want to flash alien rom now i have had a look around, no idea how to though.
Follow directions in OP. Look at my N00B guide at top of this sections.
There's a stickied post from swiftks. It's a noob guide for the Atrix. I used it to get started. Very informative.

I completely new to the whole flashing and custom rom thing. I've never tried anything like it and don't know much about it. The closest I've come to hacking or rooting my Vibrant phone is with the OCLF app. Now, I too have been patiently waiting for Froyo to come out and for some reason when it did come out I was hesitant to get it. I wanted to see what people were saying about it before I downloaded and installed it. So far from what I'm seeing, its not all its cracked up to be and it seems like Froyo for the Vibrant is "meh" for most. This is a bummer to me but I kept hearing about using a custom and its advantages. Thankfully I bumped into a very useful thread posted by xriderx66 on his reviews on some of the roms out now. Based on what he said, I'm looking to flashing my phone to the Bionix-V Rom by Team Whiskey. Problem is I have no idea how to get started. What do I need to do to flash my phone? Any program I need to download first? How do I backup my files? I'm such a noob at this its funny but I'm willing to take the risk and experience this phone the way it should be experienced. If someone can post a link showing a step by step on how to do the whole thing I'd really appreciate it. Thanks in advance
Go to the development thread and browse through the stickies. Reading and more reading should be the first two things you do. Pay attention to anything relating to odin.

Your welcome. Let me know if you run into any issues.
Sent from a Galaxy S far....far....away.
That thread he posted for you is the best information I have been able to find for someone that is just getting started. I too am just kinda dancing around flashing bionix v. I have rooted and downloaded rom manager and clockwork though...just about ready to flash as soon as I gather up the courage. But everything I have done up to this point was learned in the Noob Guide he linked. Its like vibrant flashing for dummies.

Will do jbat! Once again thanks. @ goodvibrant, I hear you. Tomorrow when I have the time I will flash this phone to the Bionix thanks to this noob guide. I took a look at the guide and it seems pretty easy to follow. I look forward to it!

Sure thing man. No problem. Ive received help and try to give it when I can. I figure if I can help with the easier questions then the guys that know a hell of a lot more than I do, can focus on the advanced questions. Everyone is here to learn.

I have been recently finding that their is a lot more noobs coming here to flash SC 2.6. I also have noticed in order to flash 2.6 they have to go on a scavenger hunt to do so. I think if no one makes a guide on how to flash everything from modem to clockwork then I will.

Hi,
I will return my Transformer to the shop so I want to slash back to stock ROM & recovery.
I'm sure that I've seen a complete thread with all the needed information but now I can't find it. So can anyone please point me to the correct thread to flash stock ROM and then stock recovery ?
Thanks.
http://tabletroms.com/forums/showthread.php?1071
thank you.
I had thought that I've seen a similar thread here on XDA.
Cool Rom. Can't wait to flash it. Does this have stock or custom kernel? Anyway, thanks for making the Rom.
Yeah, I was that guy this time. Even though you got your answer this should have been posted in Q&A. No biggie. Next time though remember this section is for development.

hi all I have the ATT nexus S and am very confused with all the posts.
I would like someone to point me in the right direction for the best way to get my phone from CM7 to ICS
sorry if this has been posted already but i have been reading and cannot find a concrete answer.
TIA!!!!
Wrong section. Anyways Flashing this from CWM recovery is just fine. No issues at all.
This belongs in the q&a section but to answer your question the easiest way would be to use this rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20402775 it is rooted and you won't loose your cwm.

Wait for a proper ROM posted from the OTA 4.0.3 and then flash that. There is not a proper ROM posted yet. Do not flash any of what you see right now as you may loose the custom recovery and don't restore the nandroid from that thread.
Wait. Its almost here. Have patience.

I think it is better if we stick to cm7 until cyanogenmod releases its official ROM for nexus s because there are some good features in it which can not be found in any other ROMs

Is a proper ROM. Doesn't loose root. But if you wish to wait its your call.

If you have a I9020T or I9023 model, flash the respective LATEST (2.3.6) official gingerbread flashable rom, then download the update to ICS.
However doing this will lose clockworkmod + root. Though it's not too hard to regain those privileges.
thanks all i appreciate it and if i posted this in the wrong section i apologize
please remove it if need be
thanks again

Yeah, this is the easiest way for GSM phones already using a custom recovery/ROM.
I just tries cm7 for the first time. Haven't even had it 24 hours. I was running liquid nexus bread and what a nice change cm7 is. Way smoother! Why rush for ICS? I don't get it....??!!
Stay rooted and wait for a nice steady well built ICS rom... JMO

Hey guys. If the title didn't apply, I am new to this forum. I just came from The evo 3d. Switched to this phone. While I think its very cool, I noticed that this forum does not have many ROMs or mods to play around with. That's ok. This phone is only a couple months old so I'm sure with time, more and more development will occur.Anyway to my point. I noticed that my phone is very different than my evo 3d than what I was used to as far as just flashing a recovery and installing a rom or kernel inside recovery. Gaining full s-off etc..
My questions is can someone show me what's different as far as gaining s-off
Method of installing roms
If someone would be kind to point me in the right direction that would be great. Thank you.

Its the recovery that we use with Motorola devices without an unlocked bootloader similar to twrp. We can flash basically anything but kernels and radios I believe. It also forces us to partition our internal memory unfortunately...but it also allows us to boot into multiple different roms without losing settings or apps

Yoo Sparta follow antp121's thread in the general forum for a complete guide on how to use safe strap for installing cm10 or any other rom for that matter. It will really help you! Helped me a lot... Especially me coming from the droid 3 with clockwork mod and no safe strap. Hope this helps.

Thank you guys for all if your very informative information. I will look into these links that were provided for me. I usually go and learn everything I can about a device before attempting to gain root, s-off, or unlocking boot loaders. So far I learned that its not possible to unlock boot loader or gain s-off. Believe me when I was on evo 3d. HTC made it very difficult for us to get s-off by patching up the exploits in the hboot by updating it with every ota update. Luckily, we had some very talented devs to get past the patches and come up with solutions.
I only hope the same could be done with the droid razr's boot loaders. I am just spit balling but would it be possible to petition Motorola to come up with an unlock method and post it on their website like HTC did. Again just spit balling lol
