Flash Motorola Atrix back to Stock

Flash your Motorola Atrix back to stock.  This is used for either fixing a bricked phone, if you need to return a rooted phone, or flashing back so that you can root and update your phone from scratch.

WARNING – DO NOT FLASH ON BELL ATRIX

Flash Guide (Instructions)

  • Turn your phone off and remove the microSD and SIM cards
  • When you turn the phone on hold the volume up button until your screen shows RSD
  • If the phone says “Starting RSD protocol support” you have done it correctly
  • Run the RSD Lite program you downloaded earlier on your computer
  • Press the “…” button to the right of the Filename box.
  • Load the SBF file that you downloaded and extracted earlier.
  • Plug your phone into your computer via USB
  • RSD Lite should now recognize your phone and say “Model: NS Flash Olympus” and “Connected”
  • Press the Start button and be patient as its about a 20 minute process give or take
  • YOU’RE ALL DONE (enjoy you phone again)

I have been interested in Android from the moment the first devices were released. I love the fact that it's such a widely accepted mobile OS and that I can be a large part of the community as a whole.
