^^What if I flashed Kenn's 2.3.4 and the radio SBF after that! Would I be able to downgrade to 1.8.3 ?

kenneth's update.zip is basically brick proof. anything you do to radio/bl or other more instrumental features of the phone are subject to dubious methodology.

Could you add motorola fastboot binary for Linux in the first message?

I'm getting stuck at the last phase of flashing. It keeps on saying: please manually power up phone. Status is never going to PASS

Edit: already solved it. I thougth that I was flashing the unlock sbf, but was flashing the kennith radio instead. Seems that flashing the new radio won't work untill you have gingerbread installed

^^Make sure you select Motorola Phone Portal in USB Connections option!

I get the same thing even though moto phone portal is on.
Never mind, it worked just by using the commands after getting to this point.

I updated my phone with the stock ATT gingerbread...can I use pudding still? With so much bricking going on I wanted to be careful.

I would leave the bootloader locked but I lost root and can't seem to get it back.

I did the ota update yesterday. After trying to flash pudding, i got some kind of error saying no os. I was then only able to go to some kind of text only nandroid menu. Thinking I could sbf.back to 4.183, I ended up with a brick. So be warned...

I don't think there is root for the new OTA w/o having your bl unlocked. Unlocking the bl was the only way i could get root. Since you need to fastboot flash an img file or root through cwm

But, i can only get root for terminal and root explorer, but not titanium, adfree, or sqlite editor.

Ummm, was going to try to unlock bootloader, but this confirms that this doesn't work....
