On the Motorola boot image screen it will say unlocked in the top left hand corner. If not unlocked, I got an easy way for you to unlock and root your phone. Just post again and I will help ya.

Now you need a recovery to flash ROMS. Which recovery do you have already? A custom or stock phone?

Easiest way is to go into the market and download "ROM Manager" by ClockworkMod. In that program pick the first option to flash clockwork mod. Put the ROM on your internal SD card then boot into recovery. Perform your wipes and then install the .zip from sd card.

tried tha too. same problem blacka screen comes up with a caution triangle
Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk

You may not be rooted. Do you have superuser in your app list? Does ROM manager ask for root privileges? Did you grant them?

is there any way that i can get my motoblur account back on alien 4? cuz evey time i tried to set it up this error comes up "there were erros getting data from the blur service." how can i solve this ?

Advice BEFORE i unlock appreciated !
I followed this guide to root my T-Mobile Atrix http://briefmobile.com/motorola-atrix-4g-root
I then installed both TitaniumB & CWM to test it phone was rooted ok & all currently seems good..
I NOW want to follow this guide (((http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...97&postcount=1))) with
the end goal being to install my custom roms (eg Alien or CM7)
As a NOOB i do have a couple of querys BEFORE I enter the path to enlightenment. I really appreciate some
advice..
1. Is there a guide (OR ADVICE FROM ANY PRO OUT THERE) that can tell me how to backup my current stock T-
Mobile installation ?
2. I am assuming I can jump straight to "Unlock your Bootloader" correct or not ?
3. If I CAN jump straight to "Unlock your Bootloader" should I miss anything out based on the fact I did not use Gingerbreak to root my atrix ?
4.Do I need to do a network unlock BEFORE starting any of the above ?
5.Why on step 10 does it say "10. Load up the SBF file – IHOP_Bell.sbf"
but the actual file inside the RAR is called "intl-fix-try1.sbf" ??? Worry or not ??
IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I NEED TO DO prior to following this guide ?
Thanks friends...........
John

UPDATE:-
Took the plunge, all seemed to work great... No need for anyone to waste their time on me..Thank you

Forgive me for the typos in my previous posts I was excited. I tried to install a couple of files but was unsuccessful. I suggest. That any one anxious enough to try to install ics rom wait until there is a file available and tested. Otherwise it will be a wild goose hunt.

What to flash first?!

Unlocked my R800x! WHAT DO FIRST?

YES. I got $5 time to contact Alejandrissimo

He'll lead you through like it's nothing, good luck!

Can't seem to find a paper clip. What else would work?

Nevermind. I found a paper clip. Is Alejandrissimo on much or did he disappear?

Unlocked my play!
What should I flash first?!

This belongs in Q&A

Just flash CM9.

Stock ICS with HBoot 1.08 - How to root it?

My Thunderbolt received a full OTA update after I unrooted the phone and I was able to get the S-OFF via HTCdev site but I am unable to get root access or install custom recovery. Any idea how I could flash a custom recover to flash a rooted rom?

Current bootloader
I posted a screen shot of my bootloader

Wrong section. This needs to be in q and a.

I noticed it after a while too. I guess the big UNLOCKED got me off track. Still root is needed

htcdev sucks. recovery cannot install kernels.
you need to either:
1)install your boot image with fastboot,
or
2)launch your recovery into memory with the fastboot boot command,then install your rom normally
i personally would try and downgrade back to an older build so you can root via revolutionary. older builds were downgradeable just by changing the main version,hopefully that hasnt changed.
since your unlocked and have a recovery:
-install this superuser to gain root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053 (download link reads UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.04.zip)
-you can try changing the main version by flashing this zip: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23169557&postcount=4 (make sure to thank drellis and con)
-check that the zip worked with the fastboot command fastboot getvar mainver or fastboot getvar all
-if the zip works,relock and,try flashing an ruu that contains hboot 1.04
im out the door to work,but if you need help with the specifics,i can help you later. i believe that should work. if this thread gets moved,PM me a new link

A way to root has been found but the HTC dev method is the only way to unlock the new hboot atm. A way to downgrade is being looked into also. The current downgrade ruu doesn't work with the new hboot either. If you know how to modify the ruu so it can be used for downgrade that would be fantastic.

You cant modify the downgrade ruu.it needs to be stock,and signed. You just need to change the main version.
Try what I suggested above,I'm 99% sure it will work. I can put together some specific directions,but I can't really test since my tb is radio s off.

Are you allready htcdev unlocked?
Sent from my ADR6400L using xda app-developers app

Okay, I admit it, I am confused, despite having flash ROMs for over a year now. What exactly are the steps to get from point A, completely factory stock with the ICS upgrade, to point B, unlocked and rooted so that I can flash a rom? Or am I misunderstanding, and there is no such route at this point? I have the greatest respect for everyone on this site who takes the time to help people out. Thank you very much.

Awsome sauce! glad it worked for you guys. I can do a noob friendly set of directions in the next couple days,and if yall have seen a working temp root,link it to me and we can do a no htcdev unlock version as well.
For those that don't like manual methods,hopefully trter will add dowmgrade to his all in one tool.
Did yall go all the way back to hboot 1.04,or to 1.05?

Thanks for your time.

I believe that trter has a temp root method. He mentioned that he was working with revolutionary to see if we could get an unlock method from them but I think he bricked. Don't quote me on that though.
