Haha ... I know how that can be... the only way I figured this out was via Nimbuzz... it gives you an option to change the wifi sleep policy... I actually used to install nimbuzz just so I could change this setting... hahaha

Then ofcourse I realized im an idiot and found the actual setting itself :p

As for kernels... im trying to figure out the best kernel in terms of battery life myself... let's see what comes into being... not been too happy with my batterylife... tho love alien... its amazing...

Mine says Alien Build #4. I installed the wipe version though,
[Atrix 4G Android Development] thebeardedchild:
Oh I wasn't too worried about a bug, just thinking it might have been missed in theming and wanted to point it out just in case. :)

Thanks! Running amazingly!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] gzrecoil:
Installed REV 4.

First thing I notice upon blur set up is that when lcicking the network name to input the password I was cancelled to the wifi settings page twice before I was able to fully type the password to connect to wifi. I believe this also happened with stock 2.2-2.3 if you set up wifi too quickly after boot.\

I know you say this is a data wipe by installing through CWM but it maintains my icons at the bottom of the screen as well as my background.

Compass still will not calibrate after several minutes of trying, had same issue with Alien#3.

No more crashing with maps and nav like I had with Alien#3, think I had a problem with alien#3 install.

GPS lock is amazingly fast, everything is working great so far.

Thanks again for all of your hard work Kenneth.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
Your install or kernel is giving you problems. Try again!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] gzrecoil:
Not sure if this is a bug with me, motorola, or this rom, but the Deny call with text message uses my AT&T number instead of google voice.

I checked my messaging application settings and there are no defaults set, although I did set android to send texts through voice when using the dialing screen and clicking send sms button.

When using google voice to make calls, the text is white on white. anyone experience that?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] JVogler:
Not sure this is Alien related, or another problem, or not a problem at all....just how Android works.

No matter what I set my screen timeout to, my screen turns off eventually even when plugged into charger. I haven't timed it to see exactly how long it is staying on. I've never tried setting my screen timeout to 'never', but wanted to keep an eye on a widget while I work and screen keeps turning off every 10 or 15 minutes or so. Any ideas? Advanced settting I don't know about?

Not really concerned as I don't really need it to stay on...just curious if there is a setting I'm not aware of possibly.

Also, I've seen a few posts a while back..along with some +1's talking about this theme in blue? Anyone know if that is planned?

There's one very useful feature you could include in theme v5. A "Reboot" Button on the menu that appears when you hold the fingerprint button.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Multiple people have been working on this... very difficult with 2.3.4 b/c so much of the file structure associated with the reboot option has changed. I don't think anyone has figured it out yet. Or if they have, they haven't incorporated it into a ROM or theme yet and released it.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
Toggles between 3G and H = AT&T's network. Your phone is now telling you the truth for the first time. ;)

Market causes connection issues for many people. Old market is in the first post. Just flash it. EDIT: Working on a fix for this market zip. Up in a second.

Home button should be functional. You have a bad install if it isn't. Try again (use the data wipe version for more reliability).

using alien 4 and kholks kernel, I've gone through 25% battery in 12 hours. Pretty good IMO...and that's with moderate usage.

Although I run with wi-fi, btooth and gps off most of the day. I also have a setcpu profile for when my screen is off keeping my processor at 450hz. Along with all of this, I used battery calibration immediately after flashing this ROM (as I always do when I flash something new)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] primeboss:
Do you Undervolt? Also have you experienced any random reboots? I am using stock kernel and get a random reboot at least once a day, that is why i am hesistant in using Kholks for the fear of more random reboots
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Using v4 with faux's most recent kernel and launcher pro, with no problems, reboots, etc. Also, great battery life without under volting.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] spitefulcheerio:
I don't undervolt. I'm not good enough yet to mess with that stuff, honestly.

I haven't had a single random reboot while using alien 3 or 4. While using alien 3 I ran edgans kernel but I switched over to kholks this morning when I flashed alien 4. Overall, my phone is snappy and quick and I couldnt be happier

side note: i use launcher pro and kholks kernel with the ext4 upgrade

Does anyone have a lot of calendar events, and gotten them to sync successfully? I still haven't gotten my calendar syncing right on Alien #3, and now #4. I do have a lot of events, over a thousand...and about 10 different calendars. But they simply won't push to my phone no matter what I do. They show up everywhere else that is synced to my Google calendar. I have Thunderbird on 3 different computers at home getting all the events, my work phone which I sync with a 3rd party app on Windows Mobile. The only place they won't go is my Atrix...which is frustrating since it's the only place that's actually Google also, so you would think it would work the best of them all.

Everything else syncs fine 100% (contacts, etc), but I only get 1 out every 10 calendar events that show up on my phone.

So if anyone has fixed this before, what worked for you?

Thanks
[Atrix 4G Android Development] JVogler:
If you haven't unlocked your bootloader, do that first. Then make sure you have the latest CWM. If you are still having to plug your phone in to boot into recovery, then you have a really old one.

Then yes, the process is the same as when you installed all the GingerBlur stuff.

Just installed this and I'm getting force close on google talk and some calender sync thing. I've tried to install numerous times and still get this.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Antzor:
What I did that improved my battery life significantly:

1) Froze most applications I didnt want with TiBU, mostly the facebook/myspace/picasa/flikr etc authenticators (I do not know if this step had a significant effect, I just did it incase)

2) Charged battery up to 100% with the phone on

3) removed casing from phone and then plugged it back in, made sure it was charged to 100% still

4) With the charging cable still plugged in, pulled out the battery

5) Waited about 30 seconds, or for the "no battery/missing battery" icon to show up

6) Without powering off the phone or anything, re-inserted the battery

7) Charging screen came on, was at about 5%, left it for roughly 2 hours

8) Came back, appears charging status hadnt moved past 10%, but it seemed like it wasnt going to go any farther. With the phone still plugged in, turned on the phone and booted into CWM, and cleared the battery stats

9) With the phone STILL plugged in, booted the phone up and unplugged, then plugged back in that night to top off the battery for the next day.

The next day I was sitting at roughly 72% battery after 15 hours of moderate usage, being unplugged around 8am! I did NOT use the battery calibration app from the market
[Atrix 4G Android Development] JVogler:
After hours of messing around with APNs, I see that the new messaging program is not compressing pictures at all before trying to send, like the old one did on GingerBlur. So it will work is you try to send an average to small picture on my phone. But will not work with a picture taken directly from phone camera with high resolution. I installed messaging.apk someone sent me, but it didn't change text messaging...just the blur all in one inbox.

Can someone point me to the correct text messaging that will get me back to the one on GBlur?
