[Q] Rooting a SouthAmerican Atrix - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I`ve had an Atrix for about 6 months and Im looking into rooting it, the thing is I live in Peru and so I probably have a Different Version.
So here are my specs:
Android Version: 2.2.2(Froyo)
System Version: Blur_Version. 0.54.1.MB860.AmericaMovil.en.01
Is there anything else that might be useful? my Carrier is: Claro which is a pretty big company in south america in case someone else has asked.
I can provide any aditional specs in case im missing something and I`ve been checking all the tutorials around here so I do have some idea of what I have to do.
I`ve tried looking for this before but Couldn`t find anything on my version, I hope I`m not asking something thats too obvious. I rooted my galaxy tab without any trouble but the atrix has a carrier and I dont wanna brick it.
I found a guide on Lifehacker and they said it works, but I cant post links yet so I cant show you, it basicly links Pete`s motorola root tools, in case its familiar to you.
In any case, Any help is appreciated!

Hi i'm from argentina and i bought an atrix with claro carrier, my rom is GB 2.3.6 and i root with superoneclick 2.3, you can download from the official site!!
sorry for my english!

Alright that sounds great, just one question though, when you talk about your rom, do you mean you were on Froyo and upgraded to gingerbread or that you rooted from gingerbread? if the answer is # 2 then do you think I might get some kind of issue from rooting from froyo with that method?
In spanish:
Eso suena bien pero tengo una pregunta, cuando dices que estas en gingerbread te refieres a que lo rooteaste desde froyo y despues lo actualizaste a gingerbread o que tenias gingerbread cuando lo hiciste. Como yo estoy en Froyo quiero saber si podria tener algun problema con el metodo que mencionaste,
Slds.

South american atrix = brazilian? LOL. Upgrade to gingerbread and use the rooting tool.

Well you see gingerbread hasnt come out yet for Claro in Peru, I don`t think its the same software they use for brazil, Argentina would definitely be a closer call. But Still, I`ve heard they`ve got the Gingerbread OTA update and we haven`t so far.
So any tips on rooting from Froyo?

[Q] U20a unlocking bootloader, and flashing custom kernel

Hi, I have a question I own a mini x10 pro u20a, this version works in different frequencies to allow 3G (HSPDA) navigation, so my question is:
If I unlock the bootloader and flash a custom kernel, can it affect the data/3G connection?
because most of the developers are using a U20i phone and I don't know if the custom kernel can affect the frequency that the phone work.
have anyone with a U20a flashed a custom kernel without losing the compatibility with the data/3G connection?
thanks a lot for your answers.

i have an e10a and i use cm7 and cm9 and i have 3g. you need te u20a in the baseband 0015, and later unlock bootloader, and install custom kernel and a rom, you will not lose your 3g. note: your phone will say u20i, but it's u20a
///
yo tengo un e10a y uso cm7 y cm9 y tengo 3g. necesitas tener el u20a en baseband 0015, y después de eso desbloqueá el bootloader y instala el kernel y una rom. no vas a perder tu 3g. nota: tu telefono con la nueva rom dirá u20i, pero será u20a
u20a/u20i - e10a/e10i, according to my knowledge, the letters are only regional things, nothing about functionality. Even, for any reason, if you lose 3g, it can be fixed; just read in the appropiate subforum and thread, related to your device . Good luck
I'm running MiniCM7 2.1.9 nAa kernel and posting straightly from 3G, so I guess it works fine . However, I have seen some people having trouble with data, don't know what it could be, though, but here it works fine.

to change baseband try this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1244490
You have to do this
"1-Primero tenes que crear un backup de CM10(P760) desde el recovery.
2-Flashias un KDZ argentino(P778).
3-Rooteas.
4-Instalas el recovery
5-Desde el recovery restauras el backup que hiciste en el paso 1.
Ya tenés el CM10 con la banda base argentina"
Y apartir de ese CM10 podes pasar al CM11 que vas a conservar tu banda base argentina.
Another idea to change baseband
Hello,
I am currently using CM11 Unofficial from Artas with baseband v20i on my P760. I would like to flash a new build of this rom, but I need to change the baseband to v20o, at first.
So far, all operations that require connection to a computer either with this, as well as with the previous (HTC Desire Z) device I was able to perform only with Linux terminal, so the method which requires Windows (and probably eventually even xp) and all this mess with the drivers terribly discouraged me.
I also know that CWM recovery doesn't support baseband partition - but maybe TWRP does? - Anyone tried it?
I watched a little on the partitions and it looks like the baseband is here: /dev/block/mmcblk0p7. Can anyone confirm this?
And if that's true, then maybe someone could make an image of partition 7 (with baseband v20o of course) and then one could try to flash it using fastboot?
How do you think, if it could be done this way?
Regards,

Erase customized ROM and go back to the original, out of the box?

Hi! I need help. I bought a used XZ1 US version, and it doesn't had the fingerprint enabled. I flashed the device with Flashtool and Xperifirm, using the Europe version of the software to enable the fingerprint. I don't know much about this, but i want to go back and erase the customized rom, as if the cellphone come out of the box, and had the OTA updates and everything.
I'm a little bit scared haha, tis is all new to me, and i don't know if i can fix this. Any help will be greatly apreciated.
Note: Sorry for my bad english, I'm from Argentina and huge fan of the work here!
Hi, since you flashed via flashtool without unlocking bootloader (or did you unlock the bootloader?) you are not using a custom rom, it's an official rom. Use flashtool/xperifirm to download the rom of the region your device.
(tu rom no es custom, si instalas un rom aunque sea de diferente región, sigue siendo rom oficial y no custom. así que si queres regresar al rom de la región con que venía el cell, sólo debes bajar el firmware de esa región e instalarlo usando flashtool).
BTW using flashtool you can download latest firmware, you don't need to wait OTA.
Thanks! Now I'm more relieved ?. The other issue I had it's with some apps like Instagram or Google earth on Play Store. It says "Your device it's not compatible with this version". I have to download the apk of those to use the apps. The current version of Android is 8.0. When updated to 9.0, it will fix this? I did something wrong in the flashing?

Mmm that is weird, that say "device it's not compatible...". I'm sure this will be fixed when flashing. Im currently at pie (and rooted) and those apps can be installed from Google store.
I'll wait to the update to android pie, and if the problem persist I'll flash the device again, seeing to make all the steps right. If you have to recommend a guide to flash my xz1, which one would you recommend?

please help to Flash ROM - Huawei Mediapad M6 10.8''

Hi guys,
Please help! I received a Huawei Mediapad M6 10.8, productcode SCM-AL09 as a present. Unfortunately it is a chinese model and I would like to use it in Europe.. Currently I can only update the device if I am in China. And there is no google store on it so no more apps available.
I would like to upgrade to Android 10 or EMUI 10 as it is pre installed with the European models. also with Google store.
Is it possible to Flash the ROM of this device and install the European version of the Tablet? It would solve all my future problems as it is already is with google store.
Do you know a reliable site to download the EMUI 10 firmware for Europe? It would be important to find the right version for SCM-AL09.
I'm curious about a working solution from you guys.
Thanks alot.
update: customer service of huawei cannot help me in Europe as it is a Chinese device. :crying:

Tambien tengo el mismo problema... Sería genial que alguien nos pudiera guiar para hacer este proceso... Mi mediapad m6 es China SCM-W09
Gracias :RE:RE
I've got the play store working just fine on mine, but I still can't figure out how to change the default launcher to Nova launcher. It doesn't seem to be possible on the Chinese variants. Anyone have any luck flashing European firmware onto it?

Dear,
did you fix your tablet?
I have an M6 10.8 SCM-W09, and all procedures found in the web, does not work at all.
Regards
I also have a Mediapad M6 10.8", SCM-W09, currently with the 11.0.0.125 (C432E2R1P2) firmware.
But I am trying to roll back to an older version. Something before 10.1.0.150.
I tried to rollback using the HiSuite app, but no matter what I do, it throws a no internet error (even though it has internet and it is not firewalled).
Then I downloaded a firmware that I found:
SCM-W09_10.0.0.186(C432)_[SCM-W09_hw_eu_R1]_Huawei_Official_Firmware_[Stock,_dload]_[DG]
I was thinking I could use the dload to USB method to flash it.. but that one throws the "software install failed. incompatible with current version. please download the correct update package".
And now I'm stuck. I don't have any other ideas about how to revert to an older firmware. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
