To flash the HKTW files, make sure you unlocked your bootloader. Then, download the following:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=12A2NF3O
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=J2VJSGZ7

Extract them to obtain the following files:

Code:
1c78b33d92f6b956bffbf4b668888ce4  atrix-2.3.4-hktw-boot.img
18effca0371c7dbb36ec54443e72414b  atrix-2.3.4-hktw-system.img
(Alternatively, you may use sbf_flash -x to extract these files directly from the SBF.)

Now boot your phone into fastboot mode, and issue the following commands:

Code:
sudo ./moto-fastboot flash boot atrix-2.3.4-hktw-boot.img
sudo ./moto-fastboot flash system atrix-2.3.4-hktw-system.img
sudo ./moto-fastboot flash -w
sudo ./moto-fastboot reboot
Now observe your jaws dropping as you start to explore this awesome build!

Thanks to eval, the2dcour & [mbm] !
sudo ./moto-fastboot flash -w threw an unknown partition error.
Code:
unknown partition '-w'
error: cannot determine image filename for '-w'
Stuck in boot loop.
Time to flash back top 1.8.3

EDIT: Figured it out... moto-fastboot flash -w... should read moto-fastboot -w

It seems the xdpi and ydpi are wrong in the GB rom:
Code:
DisplayMetrics{density=1.5, width=540, height=960, scaledDensity=1.5, xdpi=240.0, ydpi=240.0}
Should be:
Code:
DisplayMetrics{density=1.5, width=540, height=960, scaledDensity=1.5, xdpi=160.0, ydpi=160.0}
(Different from the actual density which should be, and is, 240). I'm guessing this is why the stock keyboard/Market/AdMob ads/Moto-widgets, etc all look a little wrong. I don't know how to fix it though...

Now that the BL is unlocked has anyone tried to flash the entire HKTW sbf with RSD instead of just the system.img? Maybe then we would have webtop, fingerprint scanner and other things that are not working.

Fantastic work guys!

I had 0 problem flashing the files using ubuntu 11.04 32bits with a bootable USB drive.

Apart from the fingerprint reader not working, camcorder on front cam does not really work (picture is turned 90 degrees) and google talk does not let you use the front cam (I thought that was possible with 2.3.4).

Having trouble with the moto-fastboot. in both cygwin and virtualbox it is not working for me. In virtualbox it does the syntax error and in cygwin it says can not execute binary.

Do not flash the full SBF. It won't work.

Side note: if you want to try AOSP 2.3 Gingerbread, check out these system, boot images from Team Black Hat. VERY buggy, but fun.

Im a newb running linux. I have linux in a virtual box. I downloaded moto-fastboot and the two image files. Now where do I extract these files too in linux? When I run the commands it just says command not found? I have the files on my desktop in linux, how do I direct linux to flash the files too the phone via fastboot through the terminal since it cant find the file?
Still have my IMEI!

Note that /Volumes/AndroidPlatform is a repo checkout of the android-platform.

Extract the zip then make the binary executable with:
Code:
chmod +x moto-fastboot
then ./moto-fastboot just like the instructions say

It's a universal binary, but I only tested on x86_64
cant believe I read over this...trying it now

Everything worked flawless for me (except for fringerprint reader), only change is this:

instead of sudo ./moto-fastboot flash -w use sudo ./moto-fastboot -w
