[SCRIPT] Safe Bionic Path Saver + .901 + Liberty3 2.0 - VERSION 2

---

Yesterday afternoon I attempted the Bionic Path Saver update with 901 and Liberty 2.0. Due to issues with flashing the Webtop image and some flaws in the script I wound up with a dead phone. After hacking up a charger and over 12 hours of experimentation I was able to get the phone and and was able to update it. I do not want anyone to have to go through what I went through so I am posting this. I do not take credit for the files, I only came up with the combination. All download links lead to the creators. Let me know how this works out and of course always create backups before performing this.

**Things you will need**
A FULLY charged battery
My SafeBionicPathSaver_v2.rar - http://www.filesharesite.com/files/2...er_v2.rar.html
RSDLite 5.5 - In this package
Motorola Drivers - In this package
flashme.zip - In this package
Liberty 2.0 (.901 OTA Compatible) - http://rootzwiki.com/topic/13096-901...th-custom-rom/
bionicbootstrap.apk - http://droidmodderx.com/bionic/boots...or-the-bionic/

**Instructions**
1.) Install RSDLite 5.5 and Motorola Drivers (32-bit or 64-bit accordingly).
2.) Extract flashme.zip to any location on your computer.
3.) Extract SafeBionicPathSaver_v2.rar (ME) files to any location on your computer.
4.) Copy bionicbootstrap.apk and copy the Liberty 2.0 (.901 OTA Compatible) ZIP to the root directory of your SD card.
5.) Connect phone to computer, set phone to USB Debugging Mode, and set it to Charge Only. You will also need to allow "Unknown sources" in your application settings.
6.) Go to the directory from Step 3 and run SBPSscript.bat. Let it run and wait for Phase 1 to complete.
7.) Phone should now be at the bootloader. Open up RSDLite and browse to the XML in the directory from Step 2. Flash this and the phone should reboot, it will take a while.
8.) The phone should now be at the Android setup screen. *The phone has been reflashed and reset, you now need to follow STEP 5 again to continue*. You may now contune following the prompts in the SBPSscript.bat script. Watch for any errors as directed. The phone should end up booted into stock recovery.
9.) At the recovery menu you are going to install updates manually. First do update893.zip, then do update901.zip. Make sure there were no errors then reboot the phone.
10.) You are now at version .901 and should still be rooted. To test root you can try and update Superuser by going to Superuser's menu and updating the binary. If it fails with a permission issue, you do not have root and have to start over.

***IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO REMAIN ON THE STOCK ROOTED .901 ROM YOU CAN STOP HERE. THE REST OF THE STEPS ARE FOR GETTING LIBERTY3 2.0 INSTALLED.***

11.) Now install bionicbootstrap.apk, open the application, and press the "Bootstrap Recovery" button (grant any SU access). This will install the Clockwork Recovery ROM and would fail if you were not still rooted.
12.) Now click the "Reboot Recovery" button. You will now be in the Clockwork Recovery Mod.
13.) At this menu you will need to wipe data, cache, dalvik cache, and format /system.
14.) Now you will select "install zip from sdcard" using the volume and power buttons and choose the Liberty ZIP you uploaded in Step 6.
15.) After this is done you can reboot the phone and you will have a Liberty3 2.0 / .901 Radio Bionic!

I will be trying this later tonight. I'm hoping it goes well and I'll be sure to let you know. Thanks for taking the time to make the write-up. If it works properly, it's exactly what I've been looking for.

You're welcome, a user just notified me of a typo "fixme = flashme" and I have updated that in my ZIP and in the post. The same user also told me that the flashme.zip file isn't available for download at the moment. I would host it myself, but I know that within 30 minutes my pipe would be saturated. Hopefully this link comes back up soon, if not I will find a way to host it somewhere.

Worked like a charm. Greatly appreciated. Nothing like being on Liberty with 901.

Great! Good to hear. I have updated the post with a 2nd link to download the flashme.zip file since that went down last night. Very happy XDA is finally back online.

can this be used to go back to 5.5.839 from .901?

I believe you can, but you MAY have to flash a .901 CDT image after you flash back to .839. I came back from a failed root attempt on .901, but I was also playing with different CDTs. If you try it out you can definately get it working, may or may not have to flash that .901 CDT.

I haven't able to have any success with this. I tried it twice but it keeps hanging on the Motorola screen. This is after I flash flashme (step 9) and when it goes to reboot. I've waited both time for 15-20 minutes but nothing. Is there something I'm missing? I have RSDLite 5.5 and Drivers 5.4

Well since you have rebooted you now have to manually get it into the fastboot mode. Turn the phone off, hold both volume buttons down, then hold the power button down for a second or two and the phone should enter fast loader mode. At this point you can connect it to the computer and RSDLite will see the phone and you can resume. Let me know if this works for you...

so I'm taking this doesn't work... files aren't even there
