motorola has released the update.zip for 4.1.15, and after the update, the final sha1sum of every file doesn't equal to the sha1sum in the sbf.
take care of it...
Being that the SBF is version 4.1.110, I would assume that file checksum would not match those in version 4.1.15. Also, 4.1.110 is Sprint based while 4.1.15 is direct from Motorola and I'm unsure what changes (if any) sprint may have applied.
All I know is that I have used this several times without issue and over 400 downloads have been made and no one else has seen the issue you have so I am not sure what is going on.
Thanks for bringing it to everyone's attention and if anyone else is seeing this please share your experience.
i mean, after update to 4.1.110 from 4.1.15, the sha1sum of the system dont equal to the sha1sum of the files in the sbf. however, i didn't check it, and i flashed the sbf.
now, i dont think there are any chance for this sbf to upgrade to the coming gingerbread. as the version are 4.1.100, but the sha1sum are totally different.

for example,
the sha1sum of /system/app/AccountAndSyncSettings.apk:

4.1.110: b8be65cc4224f5fd1bcb27404a94c463f57f8041
4.1.110sbf: b4957ae44524df9c8bd61d1f6842d47175092055
so i dont think there is anyone can upgrade from 4.1.110sbf to the coming gingerbread.
of course, the apk content is same.

i wish the coming gingerbread use a total update, not patch..
if there are patch, then it will check the sha1sum of the origin system.
and if it just replace the whole system, then everything should be ok.

I want to restore my Sprint XPRT to stock Froyo using this SBF and then update to Gingerbread.
liudongmiao mentioned some checksums not matching up for files between this SBF and stock files originally on the phone. Now that GB has been out for a while, anybody run into any problems updating as a result of that or have your updates went smoothly?
My phone isn't bricked, but rongsang made the excellent suggestion in the main XPRT thread on here that I should use the SBF and then apply the Gingerbread update as the easiest way to get to GB. My XPRT currently is running Froyo, rooted, and works okay (other than missing a few Sprint bloatware apks that the GB update seems to want there).
Update: After finding positive reports on another forum I went ahead and applied the SBF followed by the OTA Gingerbread update and all appears to have succeeded.
will this work with thr boost version of XPRT ?
I clicked the download link, and the file was accessible and downloadable. I don't know if this means that the OP was having second thoughts, but thank you very much to the OP for the file!

I ended up bricking a co-workers Wing yesterday and after some internal research, found out that there is a recovery rom that is developed by tmobile to reinstall the original oem rom. I am working with internal departments to allow the rom to be available legally right now. Prod development has the rom currently on t-mobile's intranet. Hopefully they will allow us to use it and essentially make it available to the general public.
No more bricked wings!!

Just looking to try some different ROMs out, but I have no reliable way of backing out if something screws up. I've tried taking dumps but have been unsuccessful.
How'd you get t-mobile to release it to you in the first place? I'll gladly call up and get a copy for myself if I knew what to ask for without sounding like I want to void the warranty.
Xavier6303,... I would really like to get a copy of the t-mobile wing ruu. I bought a phone from an ex-t-mobile employee over ebay, and the bluetooth modem does not work correctly,... I eventually got though to t-mobile's level 3 support and they said my ROM version was old but could not give me the new one. Said I needed to replace the phone.
I have ROM version 4.10.531.3 WWE, dated 03/15/07,... he said the latest t-mobile has is 4.27....
What version do you have? Can I get it from you,... Pretty Please.
What!?!?!? They have a NEW rom and haven't released it? With all the problems this ROM has they are sitting on it?

To my knowledge this is the stock ROM that comes installed on the wing, not an upgrade.
Does anyone else have it or know how to obtain it from tmobile? What could we ask for that would make them give it to us without making it sound like we're going to do something that might void the warranty?
Edit: Sorry. Just realized that I had pretty much already asked this... long week... lol

I beg to differ - samfirmwares is pretty criptic - they have 4 flashing toos, the filetypes and odin and everything else is not explained in any way.
If youve been flashing sammy stuff for ages it might be easy to plunge in, but for most people its way too arcane...

exactly what i'm thinking. im not a newbie at flashing and im no expert either but seeing how the tab is a fairly new product, there is not yet a definitive guide into flashing it. i'd probably give it a month or two before custom ROMs are available and the idea of flashing the tab to be more attractive.
I agree too that some kind soul here would post a stickie for us newbies on android. The video on samfirmware or the pdf is really deceiving and do not correspond well. I have been flasing my many Htc wm phones here on xda and have been succesful due to the pain and attention of the senior members guiding us with great step by step instructions including the dos and donts.
my first attemp on the tab failed miserably due to the unavailable information on pit files and reformat partion and this has given me a phobia to redo a second take after coming back with a reflased from samsung sevice centre. Sincerely hope someone can help us.

We have a lack of Developers involved with the Atrix hailing from Canada, France, Australia, United Kingdom, Mexico, Brazil. Or so it would seem....
If you are out there, show your faces! I am willing to help as best I can, I am not without knowledge.
Maybe we can make some kind of amalgam with the French 2.1.1 & the "Pudding" SBF? Are the keys different in the AT&T firmware? Preventing us from using portions of it? We have to get moving on this.
*Update 1*
As I stated earlier, the keys might be different from the AT&T version & CAN/FR/AUS/UK versions. Unfortunately they are. The files released today are useless to us, other than the method to compile an SBF of our own when the time comes. We need someone to leak these files:
CG2.smg
CG3.smg
CG42.smg
CG44.smg
firmware.hmg
RDL1.smg
RDL3.smg
From a Gingerbread build for International Atrix's or we wait for the OTA Update. Basically it's a waiting game for a leak or the first OTA Update that is compatible with our devices. I am not even sure if we can grab Code Groups from an already flashed Atrix though.
*Update 2*
Couldn't we use some of that Bootloader Bounty to maybe "Persuade" someone into coughing up a couple Code Groups? Anyone know someone at Bell, Telstra, T-Mobile or Orange UK?
I have an IDEA.
i tried to depack the unlocking SBF and it works. now i can see all the files:
CG2.smg
CG3.smg
CG42.smg
CG44.smg
firmware.hmg
RDL1.smg
RDL3.smg
If i replace the firmware.hmg file for thefirmware.smgon the french or Telstra sbf, it should work but i have a big problem, i cannot repack the file . i have an error message (Error opening files from folder. Some ramdownloaders have nothing to flash, remove them.) (

I was about to do just this. So I am guessing we have to figure out if these .img files are signed with the right keys. It seems they are compatible with AT&T devices, but not ours.
I am unsure as to how they did this. I am sure they all chat in IRC somewhere, we need to get in there and ask a few questions.
*edit*
Ended up here. Seems there is a way to recalculate the checksums of the sbf.
Got one step further, went to compile but errored out half way through.
*edit 2*
Not gonna work. The program errors out even when you unpack and repack the stock 2.1.1 SBF.
Try to unpack and repack the SBF, we never know

We have waited so long for an unlocked BL and now when we get one, everyone that isn't on AT&T are SOL. I have 100% had it with the Bell side of things.
Looks like we are waiting for an OTA update.....
I guess we'll just have to wait until the 2.3.3 OTA update is released. I know there's skepticism regarding international users obtaining this update, but Motorola went on record stating that it will be released simultaneously for US and UK users. Since SBFs from Orange UK work on all international builds, it would seem likely that all international users will get Gingerbread from them.
EDIT: How were ATT users able to unlock their bootloaders anyway? And why is it so different for us?
I know you guys on Bell are extremely anxious to get your BL unlocked as well, however, I dont think it was necessary to create a new thread in the DEV section for it... It hasnt even been 24 hrs yet. Its also been said hundreds and hundreds of times that requests do not belong in the DEV section.

Although i do appreciate where your coming from, i do think it is necessary for a Bell/international thread for unlocking BL/2.3 for Bell Atrix seeing as our framework is different from the ATT.
Perhaps this request could be moved to the correct area but i do think there should be a Bell/International related thread in the Dev forum.

Umm see, once we unlock ALL of our Bootloaders... there wont be a "Bell" or "AT&T" version. We will all be running the same stuff. AFAIK.
That's really why I want this the most, I am sick as hell of AT&T only stuff, which is 90% of the mods available, and 100% of the Unlockable Bootloaders available.

There will still be bell and att versions - the firmwares are still different. I dont think we'll be running "the same stuff" until some of the devs polish up some custom kernels painted with custom roms that can support both models of the Atrix.

I can 100% guarantee there is 1 model of the Atrix hardware. Maybe a couple revisions, but the same hardware nonetheless. This being said, only the software differs. Now that we do not have to use signed files, we can essentially all use the same kernels and data partitions.
If we had an unlock for our phones and flashed the 2.3.4 HKTW build, I highly doubt there would be much difference between our phones and yours when flashed with that same build.

Read my first post. Signing Keys differ.
double. 10 char.
My DVP decided to crap out yesterday for no reason. I read the "how to unbrick your phone" thread and was able to revive the phone using the TMO ffu file. It crapped out again so it looks like it's the SD card. I will be doing the flash again but does anyone have that file for AT&T instead of TMO? Thanks in advance.
It might be possible to use the TMO ffu, update to 7720, then use cabsender to send the ATT firmware bundle and turn it into the att version (as that's the only file that differentates the 3 versions)
It could also possibly brick you to the point that nothing can fix it, so I'm intentionally not posting the direct link to the files, but there are links to them if you search around for the VP on xda.

I think I'll give it a try, can you point me to the right cabsender? If it bricks I really don't care, went out and bought a Lumia 900 and actually like it. Thanks for the help.

I'm only make a (hopefully) educated guess on the whole thing, I believe there's only 1 version of cabsender(?), but it's the actual cab that i'm talking about that i'm not linking to.
Since the potential issue of permenetly bricking isnt an issue(?), look on the VP page on the xda wiki, it's listed there.

I was able to flash the phone and get it running but it shows TMO as the carrier. It does work with the AT&T sim card, so no issues.
So, I'm at a total and complete loss as to what to do. I have spent hours upon hours googling, and searching xda and trying step after step after guide after guide and I canNOT fix my S5! I've tried recovery, I've tried Odin and there has got to be something I'm missing. When I plug up the phone into my laptop, it sort of recognizes it, in the sense that it makes the notification noise of it being recognized, as with any external device. Odin picks it up as well. The issue is when trying to boot up the phone, it's stuck on the Samsung Galaxy S5 custom, android etc screen. it will not go past this. i'm almost in tears right now, and just want to get the phone working again. Is there anyone out there that can help???
Tiny update.
So I tried another method, and still having issues. Only difference is, I get past the powered by android screen, but then when getting to the Samsung with the color and oval it freezes and shuts down. One step forward, 2 steps back.

it is the 900a (at&t). after spending hours upon hours. i finally managed to do something and get it back to working again. the band and the firm ware match, and i managed to get rid of the unauthorized actions detected message.
good to hear!! (or see, rather LoL) usually a flash in Odin with the correct tarball fixes most issues with S5's

well, let's just say i have a folder of 26 links, majority from here on trying to find a solution on how to root and consequently unbrick my phone when I messed it up. that's probably not even all of them. I only posted on one asking a question, but it was about upgrading the firmware (still waiting on a reply on that, lol). so I have no clue which post it was that was finally successful in restoring my phone.
