Hi, this is my first thread.. I'm from Argentina so i'm sorry for my bad english..
I've problems with my atrix ATT.

Since a week i've been tried with GB roms and ICS, JB, but yesterday, I realise that couldn't erase anything, i tried to erase internal memory from the phone, even from the computer.. It looks like it makes the erase, but when I rebooted the phone, everything it's like before..

I tried Wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvick, and when i reboot, again, nothing happened.. It's just like before was.. I tried erase with scripts, with fastboot, but nothing.. I tried to flash some rom's again but i couldn't..The phone flash the roms, but when it starts, it starts like before, nothing changes.. The phone is working, and fine, but, i can't change roms or put files into the internal memory because when i unplugged the phone from the computer, the files are not there.. It's like the internal memory is in only read mode or i don't know..

When i tried to restore my nandroid (in other times it worked fine) when must to restore data it says Error while formatting /data! .. I tried from advanced in format data, but it says Error formatting /data.. I know that i can't flash the original firmware because i've unlocked the bootloader, so I beg you for a solution.

I really would appreciate your answers, and more if they are in basic english... hahaha


PD: i think it's in the correct section, i apologize if it's not there..

Do you have root access? and if so your apps may be stored on your sd card wich would cause them to stay after a data wipe.

Yes, i have, but if i erase a file with root explorer or astro or even from de computer, when the phone reboots, it appears again..

fastboot erase everything except radio , including sdcards and do frash nandroid . Maybe it could help !
I tried with fastboot, but nothing happens either ..

It seems very likely this is a hardware failure. Not sure there's anything you can do, other than send it in for repairs...
In which case they will very likely either replace the motherboard or just give you a new phone, in both cases you might end up with a nonunlockable BL.

Sucks, I know.

i'm looking everywhere for a solution, but don't find it.. My warranty is void now, and a change of mother board would be too expensive I think.. I know that this is crazy (having an unlocked atrix 2.3.6), but i think that i don't have other option that trying to flash the .sbf 2.3.6
Do you know someone who did that?

I am having this exact same problem

Epinter cm10
cannot format, cannot flash, errors while booted up

It looks like a problem with mounting data drive, or some problem with the data portion itself.

When i wipe, nothing happens, if I try wiping individual drives, I get errors when trying to wipe /data and /cache.

If I try rebooting into fastboot, it wont detect it on my PC (and it seems to get stuck at starting protocols on my phone).

All in all, I have no idea what the solution is, or even the problem... but this certainly doesnt sound good :/

I've been trying with many things, I can use the phone, but i can't save anything.. I tried deleting the partitions by adb but, when I did that, the partitions don't change.. Like you said, i don't know very good what is the problem and less the solution.. I hope someone help us.. If i find a solution, i'm gonna post it here.. please do the same if you fix the problem.
