[Q] Motorola Atrix MB861 problems after installing AOKP + Aroma Installer

marayag001 · May 29, 2012

I just installed this AOKP+Aroma Installer ROM from this page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1580449

And I have NEVER been able to get past the Start-Up screen. It reboots every 30 seconds from the moment I press "Start". Is anybody else having this problem with this ROM as well?

I'm using a Korean Atrix btw, MB861. I would REALLY appreciate the help!

EDIT: Okay, so I've gotten past the start-up screen by skipping everything (setting up time, Google account, etc.) and now I got to the lock screen. Now, if I don't touch the phone at all, it stays on. But once I try to unlock the phone, it is 100% SURE to reboot 30 seconds right after I unlock it. Is there no workaround for this??

what is your previous rom?

marayag001 · May 29, 2012

Stock Korean ROM

I was on the stock ROM, GB 2.3.5, MB861...

I also used CWM Recovery to flash this, not ROM Racer's recovery, because for some reason ROM Racer's recovery didn't want to work on my Atrix. =.=

Atrix is its unlocked?
recovery is new? which?

I used CWM Recovery to flash this, not ROM Racer's recovery, because for some reason ROM Racer's recovery didn't want to work on my Atrix. And yes, phone's bootloader was unlocked an hour before I flashed the ROM..

I hope you do not mind so many questions ... lol

you have to do a "format / system" is needed .... (in recovery).
then you'll probably lose touch in recovery, proceed with the installation aroma ...

up / down = volume
enter = power button
= capacitive return any key.

I already did that, twice. And still the same problem.

ok .... then try fastboot wipe (it worked for some users).

I get this also with all ics roms but im having bp problems that are probably causing that.. nottach 1.3.1 and darkside stripped down are only reliable,stable roms I can run personally... and even those its only in boot android bp pass mode. Cold boot linux.

In AROMA set Full Wipe, and try to install only one Launcher, and take a look Kernels screen, check your Kernel and select the correct, i think you are trying some FauxKernel try original 1100 or your kernel...

marayag001 · Sep 7, 2011 44 3 0

I've tried installing all three of Joker's kernels (1.0, 1.3, 1.45) and still my Atrix goes haywire. I've tried all kinds of installs (Default, Custom, Full Wipe, Non Wipe, etc.) but none have worked. I wanted this ICS ROM so bad!

Is there anything I have to do before I flash this ROM again? I've flashed it maybe 10 times or so now.

Velcis Ribeiro · May 30, 2012 at 5:17 AM

Which is your Kernel? Try the oders, the firsts 4 Kernels, like 1100 and others, stock kernels.

marayag001 · May 30, 2012

I don't know if I want to try installing another kernel, because I don't want to brick my Atrix. I've tried looking for kernels that were made for AOKP, but to no avail. Maybe you could give me a link to a good kernel that will work for AOKP? It's been half a day, and I still haven't been able to use my device...

EDIT: I also noticed that I don't have any service, and the backlights for the softkeys aren't lighting up. So I now have three things to deal with: constant reboot, no service, and softkeys backlights.

leonardoaraujo · May 30, 2012 at 12:07 PM

you can install rom joker?

I haven't tried installing other ROMs... Do you mean this one? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445052 I'll be downloading and installing it ASAP. I hope the problem goes away.

which hopefully for you, if the Joker rom work for you, check MD5 sum of my link and compare with your downloaded file, can be a bad download ...

I wasn't able to download Joker's ROM, however, I have tried other ROMs, namely Neutrino and the Official CM7 for Atrix. I noticed one thing that both ROMs worked properly, but they didn't have Google Apps pre-installed, so I had to get and install Gapps separately. Then, when I installed the Gapps, that's when the rebooting problem started again. I think my problem has something to do with Google Apps...

I have similar problem when I did install the AOKP from for the first time. It become unstable. I did fastboot to flash the wrapped the phone and install again with (current version is 37a) and it's become quite stable now.

Problem is fixed!... For now.

I was doing a LOT of research today, and I found some info about rebooting Atrixes which involved radios. I studied this, and I found out that by flashing the correct radio file, I could potentially solve this issue. I just flashed this radio: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1260963 and the issue seems to be fixed. I am currently on this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1257574 and so far, the phone has been smooth as butter! I have yet to try with AOKP. I am going to report as soon as possible regarding this ROM. But so far, everything is A-OK! Thanks for all the help, everybody! You have all been very helpful!
