You should be able to find the alarm clock plus all of the other stock software in the Bloatware Restore file. See this thread for a download link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=991595. I used that file to reinstall NFS Shift after going to GreyBlur. Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe you'll need sideloading enabled for it to work.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nazrin313:
Afterupdate.bat method worked for me albeit i actually had to write the commands on cmd
[Atrix 4G Android Development] JdeFalconr:
Hmm thank you. I'd like to avoid having to go all the way to 1.26, replace all my settings, etc. So it sounds like I can just go, from 1.57:

1.57 -> 1.83 OTA- > re-root -> flash Greyblur?

I assume I install the full install for Greyblur, not the update. But do I really need to reinstall Tenfar's CWM?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Vigneshd:
As that's the only install method we have for now, I think that is the only way you can do it. Plus it backs up everything for you if I'm not mistaken.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] lyon21:
I just downloaded this directly to my phone, moved to external sd card, ran CWM recovery and installed... All right from my phone... No computer at all and it worked perfect! Thanks a lot ken!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] VM0824:
soo kenneth are you focusing on greyblur or gingerblur. I just wanna know so i can keep up with the latest version of whichever you've developed further

Anyone else having multimedia message problems with this rom?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] seh6183:
Not me. I just don't like how android handles mms period. Everything comes up as a slideshow. Its just not streamlined. I get all messages though and mine go through
[Atrix 4G Android Development] seh6183:
This method wont work for 2 different kinds of people. Which is most of the people on this forum.

If you have a modded rom like greyblur you have to sbf back to stock in order to update to 1.83. Losing all settings.

Second, if you don't want to use gingerbreak and want to use gladroot you have to flash back to 1.26 in order to take advantage of that method.

Both ways will erase all settings. Which is the reason I haven't done it :(

Problem

Hi

any body got my problem??

installed the rom 3 time's same problem

finger print lock doesn't work lot of freezing

and swype force close and i don't use and i can't unistall

any help??

please
[Atrix 4G Android Development] gerardo66:
No One as my problem?

my is the moto mb860 3g
[Atrix 4G Android Development] beatphreek:
You may need to go back and reset your finger prints.

To get swype gone, you need to go to the gingerblur thread and grab the motokeyboard.zip and flash that, then you can use the original keyboard (I had to reboot a couple of times)

However I have the 4g on AT&T so it may be completely different for you.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] gerardo66:
Thanks beatphreek

i believe is only radio different between the two phone i'm not sure

i use the moto keyboard which i like but always come up the force close from swype without using at all

and i try to reset the finger print otherwise i need to move to a different rom

BUT i love GreyBlur

thank you to everyone
[Atrix 4G Android Development] JVogler:
Can anyone point me to which step in the process causes this? I followed all steps to get GreyBlur going on my Atrix. I made two backups and put them in a folder called 'BACKUP' on my sd card before doing anything. I have GreyBlur up and running...everything except side-loading that is. I can't seem to get that working. The folder 'BACKUP' is still there, but empty now? Is that a normal thing, or did I miss a setting somewhere? I have several apps installed and running on sd card and they remained intact with all their data and settings preserved. I've run a couple data recovery programs on the card for fat32 file system and they couldn't recover them. As usual, should have been more careful and put them on a separate card.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] beatphreek:
You might try gingerblur or the GladiAtrix rom and go to the themes forum for the look and feel of grayblur... someone has made a theme that mimics it without the system file changes.

Can you not freeze swype with Titanium Backup or go in and rename it's apk to apk.bak or something to force it not to run?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] beatphreek:
I don't see anything in the instructions on the OP that would have deleted those files...

For sideloading have you tried to use the GladEnable script?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] gerardo66:
Thank you very much beatphreek

i will try this rom and see how they performance

ciao
[Atrix 4G Android Development] JVogler:
While I'm not an expert on the process, I guess I assumed the phone memory would be in jeopardy, while the sd card would remain intact...so that's why I either backed up or moved everything to card. It's only about a month old so wasn't a big loss...just save to computer next time. If that's not a common thing to happen, my next guess would be after I was rooted, I installed Titanium BackUp and was going to use that after GreyBlur was fully functional. Maybe pointing Titanium to the same 'BackUp' directory, somehow wiped it clean of my backups from before root?

GladEnable was the last thing I was going to try...the script was 7-zipped or something this computer doesn't have to uncompress it..I'll wait and try it tomorrow on my own computer.

Thanks for your answers

EDIT: GladEnable did not work either...

Just got this too.. going to have to make a prop file so that our phone appears, reads as Bell.

This means something as simple as editting a prop file causes you to get prompted for this kind of update.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jason.hamilton:
This has probably been answered somewhere in the volumes of this thread but i flashed the rom and i want the alarm and clock app from bloat. Can somebody point me in the direction were i can find this? Thank you =). I did a search and it only came back w/ people mentioning it but no links.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] JVogler:
Still having no luck enabling sideloading...I thought maybe I had lost root somehow along the way. So I ran the gingerbreak app that was still in my app list again. Selected 'root phone' and it did it's thing and rebooted...and once again wiped out everything. All my apps gone again...not only backups gone, but backup software gone. Icons still on homepage, but says not installed. I haven't heard of anyone having this issue or a phone that won't enable side-loading. Anyone else?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] SN4K3B1T3:
Im sure Ken is already working on a GreyBlur based off 1.8.7 so ill just wait for that, its only every couple hours i get the notification
[Atrix 4G Android Development] barry99705:
I've yet to see adblock actually work, but you should be able to just edit the hosts file in /system/etc/.

Open it up in a text editor and clear it out. Then put in the following line,

127.0.0.1 localhost

save and reboot.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] thebeardedchild:
Is there any way to change the flashable Gingerbread keyboard to be blue instead of orange and stuff? I dunno how easy it is for any of you to do this...can I do it myself or anything? I've tried other themed GB keyboards, but none of them fit the proper resolution of the Atrix and they all look screwed up. The orange is nasty looking!

Best way to get from 1.57-GreyBlur to OTA ?

hey everybody, since the OTA went live today, least for me i was wondering what would be the best way to get it since it cant install over GreyBlur.

i assume i would just have to Flash 1.57 SBF, then update from there? Or what methods are you guys using?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] seh6183:
Holy crap.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nalomo:
do people not search anymore.?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] JdeFalconr:
Check out the past five pages or so of this thread. Others (myself included) asked the same thing already. The short answer is, officially, no. The long answer is several pages back.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samoelito:

[Atrix 4G Android Development] GloriousDJ:
Typo, he said that a while back
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jzaslice:
Cool thanks. So just to be clear, we CAN get OTA update over greyblur and simply move on from there? Did it work for you?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ksekhar:
I flashed 1.8.3 sbf when i m on GreyBlur and rooted using Gingerbreak. No issues. Dont you need to flash 1.5.7. I m using GingerBlur now on 1.8.3

Sekhar
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ksekhar:
Battery which used to be very good on GreyBlur + 1.5.7 turned awful with 1.8.3 + GingerBlur. I changed to GreyBlur + 1.8.3 now to see if it helps my battery in anyway. Did any one experience bad battery life on 1.8.3? IF so are you using Ginger or Grey blur?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samoelito:
hmm strange case. I feel it with better battery life. I was on stock 1.5.7 then update to 1.8.3 and greyblured it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFauteux:
So I sbf back to stock, and tried gingerblur 3.0 i believe. i lost all APN with that rom also. I tried it again and only got the tethering APN. If I flash the APN file from the earlier post, will i get the 4g data or will it only be 3g?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kingblind:
Really, really dumb question.. I have done this a ton on other phones and ROMs. but can't figure it out on GreyBlur.

By default I have 5 screens.. I only want 3.. Where is the setting for that within GreyBlur?

Blue Power Widget

Hey Guys,

I am on 1.83/Ginberblur with some sweet Honeycomb theming. I want the blue power widget from Grey Blur. Can someone post the apk or tell me which apk within the Grey Blur package I need to grab? Is it Desktopdock.apk?

Thanks!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jpinoy:
You will want the Settings.apk
[Atrix 4G Android Development] grayfoxx:
Trying it now, Thanks!

Edit: Worked like a champ, renamed settings.apk to settings.bak with root explorer then copied the settings.apk from GreyBlur into place and rebooted.

Just in case anyone else was interested. Thanks again!

Are there any plans for options on the installer? I'd rather not have hdmi mirroring, and I'd like to keep the DLNA app that comes with the phone...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] OBatRFan:
Hey all, I see that root is a prerequisite for flashing GreyBlur. I'm a Captivate owner trying to flash this ROM for my friend on his Atrix and I think the latest update (1.83) broke his root, but he can still sideload apps for some reason. But trying to run Titanium Backup or anything else that requires Superuser permissions tells us that we don't have root access. We can't use GingerBreak to root because we don't have a microSD handy. So my question is, is there and alternate root method or can we just flash GreyBlur without root? I know most Captivate ROMs will automatically root your phones even if you flash from an unrooted state.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] humjaba:
Don't run GreyBlur on 1.83 yet. I tried it and my phone version read 1.57 afterwards - I dont think all of the files are updated yet.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] OBatRFan:
Is there a way to downgrade to 1.57 before flashing?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] slayu:
Try running afterupdate.bat from gladroot. It might do the trick.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tweety18873:
That's just cosmetic you are not downgraded per se. It just shows those mentioned because 183 was not out when GB 2.1 was released.

Edit: some reading effort on this thread would have given you that knowledge...

question:

can i go into the zip, and delete anything i want?

i:e the email apk...

AND THEN just use an email client from the market?

or can i delete the web apk...

AND THEN, just download ff or dolphin so that i can have only ONE browser???

can i do that...

now i KNOW i can delete any apk i want, but what i need to know if i can delete this exactly and it wont interfere with other parts of the phone, especially since i will have a replacement..i just dont want two or three music players...same for web browser...same for teh contacts that come with the roms, i rather use the entire Go launcher kit or what not..
[Atrix 4G Android Development] SN4K3B1T3:
Delete apks you don't want through root explorer...you would need to re-sign the zip if you extract it then delete stuff...just flash and delete what you don't want under /system/app or rename it to .apk.bak then it can't run and wont show up in app list

[Atrix 4G Android Development] jahizen:

No need.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] SN4K3B1T3:
Root explorer is an app on the market that allows you to essentially do what its name is...explore and change files on the root level...and as far as I know no you can't just open the zip and delete them then flash it

[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ultra Droid:
Well, there's an app called 7-Zip which I installed on my PC. It's a variation of WinZip, but it lets you open a zipped file (not "un-zip" - OPEN), make a change to it's contents (add or remove something) then close it and retain the zip. It's a free download, but I honestly don't remember *where* I got it from.

Any ideas when i'll be able to use gingerbreak without an external sd card? i'm broke and can't afford one as of right now. I'm stuck on 1.83 stock, but everytime i get off wifi, it tells me waiting for wifi to download update, should i flash back to 1.57 and wait for greyblur to be ready for 1.83 and gingerbreak without an external sdcard?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tweety18873:
Go to the theme section, someone changed the cosmetics so it reflects 183 and 2.2.2.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] azy8000:
Hello,

I would like to ask what is the idea behind battery savings on GreyBlur because it is amazing with battery saving, it is the best.

Thanks in advance.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tweety18873:
First question should be asked in the GingerBreak thread. Second, might want to reconsider another career or job and/or get one or another one whatever works. Again you can flash 2.1 then get the right cosmetics changes from the theme section, that might help to make it feel like it is 183 so you will not get the update push...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nalomo:
where do you see this theme? link it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] DannyV94:
So should I flash back to 1.57 for now and wait until i can get an sdcard? Btw, i'm only 16 so i dont exactly have a job, lol, and sadly no one has hired me yet.

Swyped from my Motorola Atrix 4g using XDA Premium App
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
They replace each other. Future releases will have both keyboards. Can't make a .zip at the moment because I'm at the library. Check the OP of my GingerBlur thread for a .zip I made a while back. That'll work.

probably not the best place for this suggestion and I have no clue if it's even possible.... but hey I like your themes/roms and it would be awesome if this feature was included in the the launcher.

Resize widgets. I know launcher pro and ADW can do it. Possible to modify gingerblur/greyblur to include this feature?

I wouldn't call it a criticism, maybe a personal preference. But I am not a big fan of the reception bars. It may look better if they were flipped so that the largest bar was on the bottom. If it was me I would return it to the original orientation, or change to a different icon.
