Phone Will Not Boot Past Motorola Logo - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently rooted my phone using this tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1255548
I tried flashing MIUI and ICS after doing full wipes, but when rebooting the phone, it won't go mast the Motorola logo where it says "Unlocked." Is there a way to fix this?

I always do that before I flash a rom. I've done it at least 5-6 times now as I try to reflash the roms.

Sorry, early morning brain fart!
What do you consider a full wipe?
How long are you leaving your phone rebooting after flashing the ROM on the initial first reboot?
You could try flashing a kernel after flashing the ROM. You shouldn't have to, but I would try flashing the appropriate kernel from Faux.

Try wiping cache and dalvic cache. After do a factory reset. Then flash the ROM twice! As in back to back without doing anything else.

Personally I would flash another Rom, Some like Nottach or Cm7.2 and see if it boots, if so then recharge the battery and then try fresh again doing the wipes like others have said.
I had issues before where my recovery wouldnt boot but reflash did and was able to redo things and all is well.

For MIUI you need a separate kernel I tried flashing before and was stuck too, then flashed a kernel and it worked (jokers v3 kernels work well)

I have just tried installing CM7 from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1257574
I made sure to do a wipe all data, cache, and dalvik cache. Then rebooted and waited for it go past the logo for 10-15 minutes (which it didn't).
This is the same process I go through for each rom, but it still doesn't work.

Help help helllllppppp

Hi Guy,
I got a BIIIGGG problem.
After doing some VERY quick research i decided to get started by rooting and installing VillainROM, which worked lovely...no probs, however because there was a lack of themes (the main reason i rom'd the phone), I was swayed to go for Cynogen.
After downloading CM7.1 and installing through CWM my phone will not boot.
I have tried to do a factory reset through CWM, wipe the cache, and reinstall VillainROM but to no effect and stupidly i didnt backup my data.
Any advice on what i can do or have I bricked my phone?
What does the screen show? Can you get into download mode or recovery? Have you tried flashing the rom twice? This worked for me in the past.
Ricey
yep i can get into recovery and download mode, but when i boot the phone no joy
Ive tried installing the rom several times
Try formatting /data, /cache and /system from CWM recovery before flashing the new ROM.
If that doesn't help flash a stock ROM from Intratech's thread in the dev section via Odin.
1st- Boot into recovery.
2nd- wipe data/factory reset
3rd- wipe cache
4th- go to advanced/ wipe dalvik cache
5th- go to mounts and storage - format/system
6th- go to install ROM from SD card - select the ROM you'd like
7th- reboot system DO NOT TOUCH MAY TAKE A WHILE
8th- let it sit for 10 minutes once its booted so all the cache can build back up
9th- reboot, set up, and enjoy!!
Hope this helps!
Enzopreme you are a legend many thanks indeed

[Q] [HELP] Stuck on MI logo after flashing official MIUI over XWKL1

Hello guys,
Just got my new I9100 yesterday.
Phone Specs:
PDA: I9100XWKL1
Phone : I9100DDKL1
CSC: I9100DDKL1
I flashed CF Root I9100XWKL1 and rooted my phone. Later I downloaded official MIUI and flashed it via CWM Recovery. Wiped cache and Dalvik cache. Now the phone is stuck at MI logo. I just hear the galaxy sII startup tone and the phone shows logo and does not moves ahead. What to do now guys? Have I went somewhere wrong?? Guide me
Try reflashing the rom without any wipe.
Or boot into recovery if you can & do a wipe/factory reset.

Done. Booted now after factory reset Thanks
As strange as this may sound, I usually wipe cache and dalvik before flashing the ROM...I had similar issues with CM7 when I wiped cache and dalvik after install. Enter recovery again, wipe cache and dalvik and flash ZIP, then reboot and see...
Otherwise, the only other possible explaination is that the first bootup does take some time...but usually never pauses or stops the animation.

Hmmm that's not very strange. Also I was considering that first boot will take time as dalvik cache is prepared and then system gets running. But the wait time was abnormal in first case.

Stuck on boot screen

Hi guys,
I just flashed criskelo rom to my phone, but I tried to do a hard reset using the code (*2767....) and now my phone is stuck on the boot screen (SAMSUNG). I've waited a long time already, left it over night and nothing.
Also I tried to recover the back up I made with CWM, but I'm again stuck on boot screen...
Any ideas on what I can do??
Thanks

Try either flashing a stock firmware through Odin, or go into recovery and format /system in addition to wiping data, cache and Dalvik, and install the ROM zip again.

OMG THX...
I just flashed a stock firmware through ODIN and it's ALIVE!! Thanks...
(before i flashed on ODIN I restarted my laptop and it was stuck on BOOT... its like a curse omg... i had to go to safe mode to make it work again...)
Its all working now thanks
EDIT: Well... i rooted the phone again, flashed the rom, but this time I tried to make the wipe cache and factory reset through the CWM (volup+home+power), but I got stuck on boot screen again.... Guess I'll have to stay with the rom but without wiping it

If I remember correctly, Criskelo ROM does not require you to wipe anything if you're coming from a stock ROM (it does everything through the install script). So just install it and live happily ever after
getting stuck on the boot screen is normal...i did twice already while flashing new rooms...usualy for forgeting to wipe. reflashing the stock rom always works.

[HELP]flashing wanamlite and neatrom prob

i'm having this prob on flashing wanamlite and neatrom latest rom. flashing is completed using cwm but when i'm goin to reboot it, it just stucked on bootanimation. i waited 20mins but still nothing happened. what could be the problem? i flashed the latest rootbox and i am able to boot no problem encountered.
Okay first of all - next time, loose the big font. I'm sure everyone who visits this forum can read totally fine.
Next, did you make a full wipe before flashing wanamlite or neatrom? (Wipe data/cache/dalvik cache)
Also after you've flashed any of the ROMs. If it gives you an option to reboot and no other option - do it. If there is an other alternative to go back to CWM - do that. Cause either way you should try to go back to CWM Recovery and from there, wipe cache and dalvik cache (again) and also set permissions. After you've done those things, reboot and it should work.
(i had same proble flashing Omega v23)
i did a clean install by philz and also the wipe data cache and dalvik but i don't go back to cwm to do that again and to fix permission, i just restarted it after installing the rom. thanks, i'll try to do what you said.
