Save a copy of 4.5.91 sbf - Atrix 4G General

if you are still on 1.8.3 stock, you can get a copy of 4.5.91.sbf file by using Motorola Software Update, handy if you need to flash a clean version of 4.5.91 on 4.5.40 or 4.5.91(OTA upgraded).
by default, the sbf file is saved to:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Motorola\Software Update\firmwares\1FF-olympus-user-2.3.4-4.5.91-110625-release-keys-signed-ATT-US-GAS_NA_OLPSGBATTSPE_P011.sbf.gz
copy it to somewhere else before Motorola Software Update finishes flashing or it will get deleted automatically.

Are you using Motorola Software Update tool or RSD 5.3.1 to flash it? Also was you bl already unlocked before or after you did it?

at first, I used Motorola Software Update tool to flash, it flashed successfully - as expected
then I tried to flash it using RSD Lite v5.0, also flashed successfully, it actually did not erase user & data partition, retaining all apps & settings.

the phone was BL unlocked before, I flashed from 4.5.40 back to 1.8.3 sbf, then " fastboot oem lock" ( not sure if it locks the phone back), then Motorola Software Update tool & RSD.

Ok, well 4.5.40 was never released so thats probably why you where able to downgrade to 1.83. Im not sure if it is a good idea to flash this after 4.5.91 though. probably not a good idea to release unless someone has the ball's to flash it from 4.5.91 bl unlock.
edit: well you flashed it via rsd after you used Motorola Software Update. So it might be all good..
edit: **** it, i've got insurance, im going to give a go... I was bl unlocked and flashed leaked ota
edit: confirmed, 1FF-olympus-user-2.3.4-4.5.91-110625-release-keys-signed-ATT-US-GAS_NA_OLPSGBATTSPE_P011.sbf is safe via rsd 5.3.1 after ota bl unlocked 4.5.91!
edit: this seems to be a service sbf as it does not wipe data!

What do you mean he told you not to release it. The upgrade file is freely available from Motorola now. You can download direct to your PC from the software updater.

Would this work for me if after pulling the OTA I am stuck at the Motorola M with Dual Core? Could I flash this SBF and get my phone back up and running? I tried using the Motorola Software Update software but not sure what mode to connect my phone for it to recognize it.. Connected via Fastboot the software says:
"Motorola Software Update is unable to identify you device at this time. Please Try again"
Thank you in advance

NYG, Thanks for experimenting..
Question: So if I do the OTA update, then I MOD the hell out of it. I can use this SBF file and RSD to go back to stock and my phone will be like nothing ever changed...???

you shouldn't install this directly, but it is very handy to have (in order to extract images)
my method is to download it through the program but disconnect the phone as soon as it starts to download. when it finishes, you should have the file there, copy/move it whatever and exit the program.

Yes, but just like the ota, after you flash this, you can never flash firmware lower than 4.5.91 again or you will get a hard brick. Also depending on what ROM you are on before you flash this you may have to manually wipe data because this sbf does not.

[GUIDE] Comprehensive "Rooted Android 2.3.4 with unlocked bootloader" instructions

[GUIDE] Comprehensive "Rooted Android 2.3.4 with unlocked bootloader" instructions
This is a guide on how to go from Froyo to rooted Gingerbread. Also, I'm on AT&T. Others beware. I take no responsibility if you hard or soft brick your phone.
I went from a rooted install running Gingerblur v4.5, but this will likely work regardless of what you have installed, since fastboot overwrites everything.
I didn't actually discover or develop any of this, but I figured someone might like to have a comprehensive guide, instead of searching through 500 different threads like I did.​Known/potential issues:
- Fingerprint scanner not functional False alarm
- Avoid using RSDLite for *anything* if you installed the OTA 2.3.4 build
- Battery reading is sometimes inaccurate
- If you have a limited RAM issue, read here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1169409​Step 0 - BACK UP EVERYTHING. Use Titanium backup, or just copy everything off your phone, whatever. This will leave you with an unlocked, rooted, but otherwise stock Motorola phone. Once this is done, set your USB mode to "None"
Step 1 - Install moto drivers
For x64 windows, use these: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=634880&d=1308872277
For x32, http://www.multiupload.com/QNFILE4F07 (I havent tested these, I run Win7 x64)
Step 2 - Unlock your bootloader Note: some have hard bricked using RSDLite to install 1.8.3 over 4.5.91. Read warning here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1160408
Download latest moto-fastboot from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1138092 *the win32 version worked for me, and I run 64bit windows 7*
Follow instructions here: http://briefmobile.com/how-to-unlock-the-atrix-4g-bootloader
Step 3 - Flash stock Gingerbread image (you can do this without restarting your phone from the unlock bootloader step)
Follow instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1163342
Step 4 - Flash CWM Recovery
Instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1138541
Step 5 - Install root
Instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1159572
Note: I used my phone's USB Mass Storage mode to put the .zip on my external SD card. To get to recovery mode, shut down the phone. Then hold the power and volume up buttons until you see "fastboot." Use the volume down key to cycle through until you see "Android Recovery" then press volume up again. This will get you into the CWM environment, where you can navigate the menus to install the root .zip.
Step 6 - Restore your stuff
Now you should have a factory fresh Gingerbread / MotoBlur installation (didn't you miss the bloat?), with the addition of the superuser app. For tethering, I use Barnacle (requires root). I used Titanium Backup to uninstall any apps I don't want (anything beginning with AT&T, Blockbuster, Y!, etc.) and to reinstall all of my apps.​
Feel free to make any corrections, or ask questions. Hopefully someone finds this useful. All credit to the OP of each thread I linked to.

Does this include the official 4.5.91? So many warnings about hard bricking since people flashed it.
From what I can tell, hard bricking only occurs when you use RSDLite to flash an older motorola SBF once you've gone to gingerbread. But someone else should chime in on that one - I never got a notice for an OTA update.

Ah you have the deadly firmware
You simply cannot use RSD to flash down to 1.83 or 1.26 etc.
Or you will brick.
Clarify in Q&A, make your own thread with your question.
Taken from this thread kennethpenn said:
"What if I already flashed the official 4.5.91?
If you flashed the official update from XDA or by downloading through a dev-blur server (note: this excludes this ROM), you should avoid flashing SBF files in RSD Lite. We've confirmed this problem exists when users flash the 1.8.3 build specifically. It may happen with other SBF files, though."
So it looks like you can flash 2.3.4 builds via CWM. But double check by asking in Q&A.
Check out this thread.

Fruit cakes basically dont touch your bootloader, they're basically modified sbf files that only contain the needed files to flash stuff. There's a 1.8.3 fruitcake in there as well as a 2.3.4 fruitcake.
An HKTW fruitcake is in development.
Fruitcake is the .sbf equivalent file that is flashable via CWM.
The big question is this - can you RSDflash the unlocked bootloader SBF by itself once you have the firmware of death? Once you have the bootloader unlocked, everything is gravy.
I don't know the answer
theres the moto-fastboot file i was looking for!
much appreciated.
Now there's a guide
I just did this like 3 hours before this guide came out. Though it at least seems like I was going to all the right threads that are in this guide anyways.

From my understanding, if you flashed the official firmware of death you CANNOT use RSD in any way. All of your flashing has to be done via CWM and fruitcakes. Full .sbfs will brick your phone. Hard brick. As in #@$% ME hard brick.

Weren't there some reports of issues restoring via TB after flashing Ken's beta 4.5? I'd have to search through his thread, but I thought it presented an issue or two.
So I guess no sweet Roms for me. Still haven't found a good thread to root my phone. I'm not sure if the FOD would mess with the rooting part of it.

If you have an OTA update.zip please PM it to me or contact me on google talk ([email protected]) and I will quick add it to this thread, with safe hosting, credits to The Firmware Team's Pzyduck for providing safe-haven for these types of files.
Instructions for pulling an OTA update.zip:
Do NOT install the update! Do these first!
Be rooted. We got plenty of methods. Motofail2go for ICS, and my RAZRiRoot.zip for turl1's Clockworkmod.
Download the Root Explorer app, or the ES File Manager app. (Instructions are for Root Explorer.)
Open Root Explorer and go to the ~/cache/ directory, which resides on the root directory of the phone '~/'
Hit the 'Mount R/W' in the corner, if successful will then say 'Mount R/O'
Copy the update file .zip from the ~/cache/ to your sdcard, external to be safe. External is in ~/mnt/external1/ and Internal is ~/sdcard/.
Copy over the update file .zip from the sdcard(s) you chose to your computer and upload it.
You will want to use Voodoo's OTA Rootkeeper before updating if you have a locked bootloader, you can find my thread on a RAZR i compatible version here.
Send me or post a link here to the update and exactly what System Version you were on, and where the update takes you to.
The community will thank you for your help!
Enjoy. Remember to do your part to the community and contribute all updates!
Hmm, but I can't put the EU update.zip on it when I'm on GB without losing data, right?

You cannot install any of these on different carriers without use of fastboots and unlocked bootloader.
These updates will ONLY work from PointA-PointB.
Here's another Update Zip for 40002EU. For this one you have to come from 32002 EU. The one in the OP is from 31006.

mattlgroff, im in 81.5.31006.Retail.en.EU - 4.0.4. and in software update i get notification of an ota. i down loaded that file when ask if i want to install it i select yes. but when in recovery it always fails. why, isnt that the official? because after that i tried flashing it in recovery but it fails too.
before alll this i was already on 81.5.40002.Retail.en.EU - 4.0.4. coming from 81.5.31006.Retail.en.EU. but i wanted to downgrade back to 81.5.31006.Retail.en.EU. and my phone died. thanks to hsd pilot my phone came back to life he sended me a file http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1528201&d=1354399653. but now im stuck in what i told you at the begining. why?? what can i do to go back to 81.5.40002.Retail.en.EU. i know this is not the thread sorry but i was watching your new otas. and i cant install the one for my version.
Are you rooted? If yes and you used the Root with insecured Kernel, then you probably have the wrong Boot.img on your Phone. Grap the Boot_signed out of the 31006 Fastboot File and flash it through fastboot

I have version 871.110.12008.XT890.Brasil.en.BR installed from sbf.droid-developers
My Razr i bootloader is unlooked and rooted. When i try to install the update with the android button (in about system) i recive error message after reboot. How can i install this update manually with fastboot console?
Thanks!
First, use an Root Explorer and copy your downloaded Update Zip out of the Cache Folder and leak it
Edit : Ok, it's in the OP already. Sorry, it's 1am in Germany :sly:
Your RazR i is rooted, how did you root it? If you used the Unlocked Root (insecure Kernel), than grap the boot signed out of the sbf you flashed and use fastboot to install it
fastboot flash boot boot_signed.
After that it should work. If not, you maybe deleted some System Apps. If that's the case, flash the system_signed.

I have tried reflashing the original 81.5.31002 stock firmware, the 81.5.39001 firmware as well as the latest EU firmwares using RSD Lite, didn't help at all. The GSM radio still seems to be out.

Extract both archives, install one of the two installers of RSD, once RSD is installed, search for the DROIDPRO_2.26.20.sbf file that extracted.
Third:
Let's get your droid pro into bootloader mode,for this keep volume up and volume down keys + power button at the same time for 5 seconds, if do it right you'll get onto a screen like this,
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

}
Now, connect your phone by usb cable to you computer, (Remember to have installed drivers in your pc) RSD show that your droid is online, click on the search button and select DROIDPRO_2.26.20.sbf file, once this is done click on start button and RSD will begin to flash the phone, wait for the process , when it finishes, your phone will reboot and alive again!
For update your for to the last version just go> Settings>About phone>check update after first update and reboot, phone will show a pop up message with a new update, download and install all necessary times.
Hope I could have helped you :fingers-crossed:
Very useful post, since noone before mentioned the bootloader mode, only fastboot that didn't work in my case. I need to try this when I get my phone back from a magician who is trying to fix it....
Regarding the post itself, you should clearly declare that the SBF is from American (VERIZON) model, since it will brick European ones even more than they already are
A question regarding the SBF file that you have provided..
Is it SBF of Stock GB 2.3.4..???
Imagine that I have rooted my phone but now I want to remove Root from my phone permanently, so in that case can I follow these steps to get the pure Stock ROM..???
I am totally new to Motorola and coming from hTC, so that's why asking so many questions..

Every time you flash the firmware over a custom rom, you must do a factory reset from recovery.

Hi guys! Maybe the tittle is getting you confused, but it's so, now you're gonna unbrick and revive your Droid pro and also install de last update ( 4.7.3.XT610.Verizon.en.US) for your phone. "IT MEANS IT'S ONLY FOR VERIZON MODEL". Just follow the next instructions and you'll get it .
I know like me, many of you have gotten a brick in your phone or have your phone bricked for the time being. The first step that we'll do is unbricking the phone.
First:
Download RSD Lite 6.1.x from here: http://pc.cd/5cL
And the SBF files from here https://my.pcloud.com/#page=publink&code=XZ3EMZwDjXjAu2s7BETYRGNfKhWL5MpSa7

REVERT TO STOCK & RELOCK BOOTLOADER FROM PUDDING (My experience how i did it)

Well i was needing revert my custom firmware and bootloader to stock (also relock bootloader)
but i was very afraid about you can revert uncloked bootloader if you do it with Pudding

If i get a soft-brick....

And 1ff-olympus-user-2.3.6-4.5.141-111212-release-keys-signed-att-us-gas_na_olpsgbattspe_p012.sbf.gz as my flash file
And if you are reading this post it's because you allready have installed your MotoDrivers rigth?
(I do it from my Win 8 Computer, x64 system)
My Result? a MB860 Stock 2.3.6-4.5.141 with Locked Bootloader
Later i perform an upgrade from my phone to 2.3.6-4.5.145 (Moto Blur ID rerquired)
To end one more time in my first same version.
If you decided to do this IT'S ALL UNDER YOUR OWN RESPONSABILITY!!!
I'm just sharing my own experience!!!
Conclusion: It's posible Restock & Relock from Pudding Without Brick your MB860 Atrix 4G :good:

Stuck in the same boat! Please advise...
Many thanks klonic0 for your post, it has given me hope!
I am stuck in a similar situation with an AT&T Atrix 4G that has the v4.5.145 unlocked bootloader and absolutely refuses to flash back to the stock 1ff-olympus-user-2.3.6-4.5.141-111212-release-keys-signed-att-us-gas_na_olpsgbattspe_p012.sbf image.
The phone experiences frequent SODs and drains its battery extremely quickly.
The Motorola RSD lite (with the MTK patch) keeps failing at "switching to BP Pass through mode".
(I have tried about 7 variations from windows xp through to Windows 8.1 on 32 and 64 bit machines.
After which I am back to square one, i.e. a "Failed to boot 1" error message on the top left corner of the phones screen, I then have to flash anyone of the following three sbf files to get the phone working again:
pudding.sbf or 4547-fix-try2.sbf or trololol-unlock234.sbf
Is there any hope to flash back this phone back to the stock image with a locked bootloader?

Yes, it should be working. Did you factory reset? Did you look into what failed to boot 1 means?

Hi Palmbeach05! Thank you for replying so quickly.
Yes I have factory reset the device before every attempt to flash the sbf using RSD Lite, and I have looked into the "failed to boot 1" error as well, it follows the information from this "quote" on the Atrix 4G GSMarena.com page 5:
"to all those people out there who own a motorola atrix 4g and have unlocked their bootloader 4.5.145 and are having sleep of death issues aka SOD where the phone does not wake up after a period of inactivity download moto software updater from motorola website and follow the on screen instructions moto software updater will download the stock 4.5.145 and automatically flash it and finally u will get rid of sleep of death issues and remember u will have to be in stock firmware the moto software update wont recognize your phone if u are on cyanogenmod word of advice if u are already on 4.5.145 never unlock the bootloader because there is no unlockable bootloader for 4.5.145 all the unlocked boootloaders are from previous versions so even though they unlock the phone there will be consequences like sod and random reboots on high temperatures so bottom line is u have to go back to stock many people will tell u to flash via rsd lite but trust me rsd lite is of no help as it wont be able to flash successfully because 4.5.145 sbf is not available and rsd cant downgrade so it will give an error message error switching phone to BP pass through mode but the moto software updater will be able to download the 4.5.145 sbf from motorola website and flash it automatically"​
Unfortunately I have had absolutely no luck with the Motorola software update software package either.
I realize this is an old thread, but I'm very interested in this and I couldn't find the right information.
Motorola has given me the run around because none of their links ever work anymore (like this one: https://forums.motorola.com/posts/9bae279371).
Is there any sort of official md5 checksum for this file? How do you know you're downloading something legit from 4shared?
Thanks so much.

[Q] Bricked after trying to un-do most recent update?

I did an OTA update, and SMS stopped working and also my screen wouldn't shut off automatically (nor when I hit the button).
So I tried flashing back to the 4.4.2 version from sbf.droid-developers but I got an error.
No valid PIV block in SP for system
piv validation failed (system)
Fastboot Reason: Boot Failure
Now I'm stuck in AP Fastboot. It says Battery Low, but I can get it to say Battery OK by plugging it into the wall and then rebooting it or something weird like that. It's hard to get it to do it but it's possible.
Anyway, it doesn't matter what version I try to flash now, boot and system give me errors when trying to flash.
Partition (boot) Security Version Downgraded
It seems like I need to be unlocked in order to downgrade, but to unlock I have to get out of fastboot. Am I perma bricked?
Not sure how I fixed it to be honest, but I'll try to recall some things that might help others.
At the end of a long road of reinstalling drivers, fighting with the low battery, trying various versions of the firmwares, and trying multiple scripts/tools, I got it to work.
I ended up using (not sure how much of this is relevant);
Motorola Drivers from the Motorola Device Manager
RSD lite, v6.1.4
The newest 4.4.2 firmware

The only part of that which would be relevant is if you did in fact use the newest 4.4.2 firmware. This would be 18X.46.15. The reasons that is relevant is because (1) you titled your original post that you were attempting to un-do the most recent update (which you have now successfully installed again) and (2) If you are on the .15 firmware and not .10, you will not be able to unlock your bootloader now. You may or may not be aware of that already. Otherwise, you did exactly what was needed to make your phone operable. :good:

I used the newest 4.4.2 on that site (which is .10). I was getting errors before and the only glaring difference is the version of RSD lite. I dunno why it worked then and not before.

Well, now that you mention is, I suppose an older version of RSD Lite might generate that error. .10 is the money version of 4.4.2 - if you have .10, you can still unlock your BL by following the tutorials for KitKat to do so. .15 is the -newest- version, but primarily, it's an update to fix the exploits that allow .10 to be unlocked and rooted, so don't do it before you unlock. Once you are unlocked, .15 is fine - you will still be able to install a custom recovery, root, etc. I would install the recovery before you update as well, personally. Good luck!

I'm still having most of the issues that made me try to un-do the update anyway.
Texts take ~20 mins to send out. Phone calls seem okay. Google Play Store freezes non-stop (downloading/installing new apps takes forever, usually gets stuck downloading around 75% regardless of the size of the app). If I go to Developer Options, the Settings app locks up until I close it (I wanted to see if I could switch to/from ART). Battery might be draining faster too.
I'm afraid to get stuck back at the fastboot. What should I do?
What can I do with this? I installed the update and I wasn't able to root my xt907.
As stupid as I could be, I went inmediately to RSD with the same ROM I flashed just a couple of hours ago (want don't have the most recent update, I think).
Stuck at Fastboot. Fastboot Reason: Flash Failure
When I try to re-flah, it says:

How to fix the Brick of RSD (at least this worked for me)
A collab I want to do... This solved me right now my problem
In the xml file (assuming you removed any lines which contains “GetVar”, “var” or “oem”), delete the following lines:
<step operation="flash" partition="partition" filename="gpt.bin" MD5="5B3FD782141145E4BD1C9270D954AFF1" />
<step operation="flash" partition="tz" filename="tz.mbn" MD5="8514ED883150B7A0579F9431CD872B39" />

I don't know what are these files, but my phone came back from death :fingers-crossed: :laugh:
If this helps anyone, just... Yay!
Attatched, how it goes the XML file
I had a similar issue, and now i believe i need the 46.15 firmware to get back up and running. But it doesn't seem to be something i can find online.
There is a thread with the .15 FW in the general section.
