[HOWTO] (moto-fastboot) Flash a build on an unlocked Atrix

[vishurao]

so the one he made is different from the one i used to unlock my bootloader?

Yes. It is.

unless you used the one from this thread. and you are in linux..

I doubt either of two would be the case

would ubuntu live edition work?

I keep getting sudo: ./moto-fastboot: command not found

I'm running it from Desktop/fastboot in Ubuntu...

moto-fastboot md5sum b2d563d0d92e6200fc793198d11f061b

i think the flash lines unknown posted are correct...

check if its chmod 766 or not.
do a ls -l in your directory and see if it reads something like

-rwxrw-rw- moto-fastboot

 

[dew.man]

permissions and md5 all valid.

Same error!?!?!?!

 

[dew.man]

BTW, get the same error if I run:

sudo ./moto-fastboot devices

Shouldn't the command line take the same params as the regular fastboot command?

Read eval-'s post but just wanted to ask, this isnt compatible with windows right? I would have to pop in a live cd in order for this to work right?

HAvent tried it yet with my buddy's phone, but I'm assuming the moto-fastboot was compiled in a 64-bit linux, so you would need to run it on a 64-bit machine..

Edit: We just did it..Confirmed the issue was the need to run a 64-bit os..

Are you on windows? Are you using the moto-fastboot in the first post? If you are running linux and using the moto-fastboot from the first post you should have no issues. And of course, you unlocked the bootloader first.

Please read the first post carefully. Motorola modified fastboot. I compiled their mod for linux, if you have linux, you can flash your /system. Please get linux, or compile it for windows. I don't actually run windows so I haven't compiled it for windows.

on linux , i keep getting an error of

[email protected]:~$ sudo '/home/ubuntu/Desktop/moto-fastboot' flash system
/home/ubuntu/Desktop/moto-fastboot: 3: Syntax error: "(" unexpected

I don't have a 64 bit machine
