[Q] Help Me Get Gingerbread On My Atrix, PLEASE - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Ok, so let me start off by saying that I am a NOOB and I apologize for that. I have a Motorola Atrix 4G on the Bell network in Canada. A while back I got the bright idea to try rooting and installing custom rom but unfortunately bricked my phone. Since then, I've got working again by flashing a different SBF onto it. I do realize that there is no way for me to get OTA updates now and the Gingerbread release just happened in Canada. Is there any other way for me to get gingerbread on my phone? All help is appreciated, thanks.

Oh ya and I've tried searching what seems like the entire internet to find something that can help me out. Just in case someone thinks I haven't been doing my part. ;-)

I know about these exe files. They are the sprint ruu files, and are common knowledge. The problem is, I don't have a pc. It would be great if I got a Mac fix.

Dont know if this is what you wanted but i've unrooted fine using this file just put in sd card and enter bootloader. I got it from the how to unroot thread in the dev forum the name of the guy i got it from escapes my mind at the moment.

[Q] want to root my HTC Evo 4g 2.3.3 do i need to downgrade or use gingerbreak?

I'm really frustrated with my phone since the gingerbread upgrade and i have been looking for links to help me root my Evo, i've heard i need to downgrade or use gingerbreak so i'm confused. If anyone knows and takes the time to provide the links it will be greatly appreciate it.
IM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM DO I USE GINGER BREAK OR DO i need to downgrade FIRST PLZ HELP
Not ready yet.
I've been looking for a while about rooting the Evo 4G 2.3.3. It's not possible yet. You can try the downgrade and such, but it won't work (tried it). Just stay on this site and check the boards every few days. Once it's possible, thee will be a massive sound around the world of cheers and other....unsightly....sounds.
My friend isn't tech savvy so he had me try to root his on the ota update, so i tried gingerbreak and it sat there for at least 30 minutes not doing anything.
Root for GingerBread, EVO
I read something about revolutionary-0.4pre3, that was supposed to be a fix for that,,and also tried RUU_SuperSonic File to try and down grade, but no such luck, got a Boot Loader error,,,uuuugh,,,not happy right now--

[Q] How about some suggestions...

I have a MTS 3g running CM 7.10. I have loved this phone except for the camera. I have the fuzziness that everyone else seems to have. I get to upgrade in April and I have 2 questions:
1. Before I upgrade I want to get a replacement phone for this one because of the camera. They keep telling me there is an app, which I can't find on the Market they need me to download. Will that app let them know I'm rooted and running CM7, if so, I need to flash the original ROM. Any tricks to that thru Rom Manager, do I just put the stock rom in the update folder and let 'er go like when I boot into CM update recovery? I've got the most recent radio. If this is posted somewhere I missed it.
2. When I upgrade in April, I've been considering a MTS 4g or a HTC Slide which TMO told me was replacing MTS with them. Suggestions? I saw one post where someone would never get another slide keyboard phone, that hasn't been a problem for me, but what kind of new phones are others who have had MTS 3g been looking at, upgraded to and love? Thanks for the help and suggestions!

[Q] Phone didn't work one week...now my text isn't working...please help!!

Hello, this is my first post on the forum and I'm pretty much a Nub to rooting.
I have the HTC EVO 4G with...
CyanogenMod-7.1.0-Supersonic
Kernel Tiamat_Evo-v4.1.0
and I've installed the latest Wimax, Radio, and HBoot, found here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715485&highlight=radio+update
I'm not sure what to do to fix my phone or what I can do...
I've looked for fixes, tried rebooting, and I've tried changing the Kernel. The only thing I haven't done is going all the way back to square one. I'm not sure if this is possible or how easy it is to take my phone all the back to the beginning when everything was stock root....especially since I have no backup of that fateful day when I stepped into the root world...
any help will be great appreciated...
thanks..
to truly get back to square one, I believe you'll need to Google for an ruu of what firmware/software your phone was at when you rooted. (Android version, boot version). And run the ruu from a desktop with phone plugged in.
Someone can help you more, but it is possible, and won't be that difficult.
Sorry, I'm at work.

Did you try flashing anyone of this odin one clicks? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1903252
Can't tell what you exactly did to flash on verizon so why not just start back fresh on sprint? Ofcourse backup your stuff first..
I had a Droid X from Verizon that I had flashed to boost. If I wanted to flash a rom I had to put the rom I wanted on the phone, then have it flashed to boost. My point is, flashing anything rom-wise would have made it a Verizon phone again. Like doing a factory reset. If you did a factory reset, it'd load sprint stuff again.
Odin safe recovery
Wipe data, cache, etc.
Flash a modem (maybe not necessary but I'd do it)
Flash a rom
Enjoy.
