Anyone know a relatively easy way to untheme just the keyboard (Theme Build 3)?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Yeah, just replace the latinime.apk in the theme.zip with the one from the main ROM.zip and flash.

Yeah me too - except for the stock power widget, that one always comes out OK. Don't know if it's Alien related though, it happened to me on (4.5.91?) too.

Hi,

Do you know a way to show the carrier name in the status bar ? I live in France and work in Luxembourg, so it would be very helpful.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] LifelessRaptor:
I'm going to do the full install method (currently on build #2) but I was wondering if I should do a Dalvik and full data wipe. I'm trying to get my battery life working properly so I'll probably be installing in about an hour (phone's currently at 42% and yes it'll probably die in about an hour.)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tacotino:
Yeah I'm not sure what it is. But as long as I don't turn my phone off, I'm ok

Alien rom 3 with theme

[Atrix 4G Android Development] beatphreek:
Same here.. Fairly annoying actually. I know I remember this being an issue on a gingerblur build. But I didn't experience it at that time so I don't remember what the fix was.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xandr115:
Corporate email works as long as you don't use the MOTOBLUR version. Just add a new account and select Corporate from the "Other Accounts" section. I've been using it for two days without a problem.

Added:

Battery life has been pretty bad though. I've even drained, charged and wiped stats... doesn't look like I can make a full day even on light use now.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] thegregulator:
It's interesting that people are having drastically different battery life. I've had very good battery life the last few days. I've noticed there are times where it seems to drain quicker than others for no apparent reason, but all things considered it's been pretty reasonable. Have you considered draining your battery, charging to 100%, wiping the stats, and then re-installing the rom? I think you'll likely have to do a factory reset, but if you back up your apps via CWM you should be able to restore them after the factory reset. At least that's my understanding?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] papaslime:
i think its kernel related

because i also meet this bug after using faux kernel.

never meet this bug while using stock kernel
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Zugshad:
was wondering a question before i do an install. ive had my Atrix for a bit and only thing I have done to it was the Gingerblur mod back when we couldnt do the roms yet. Am I safe to just DL the update #3 and flash it and that will wipe everything for me since I am guessing that the old gingerblur was not a kernal update (or something like that) and be safe to not worry about any sort of bricking?

thanks for input

I might have done something wrong, but it seems that my battery life is way better now that I've flashed the bell radio.

I already flashed it a couple of days ago, but after installing build #3 my battery drained very fast. Now it looks like it's back to a normal situation.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] DrunkFuX666:
My battery is draining like crazy... the system always seems to stay awake as well ... don't know what's going on :s

Need help

So i have followed the instructions on post 1108 page 111.

Followed these instructions:

ROM---> MANUALLY WIPE data/factory reset,wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache,install rom, then WIPE cache and dalvik again after install.

THEME---> Wipe cache, Wipe Dalvik, install theme, Wipe cache, wipe dalvik.

So I have the rom now but I noticed that it is missing some features like no camera app or camcorder app. Really annoying. Last thing I noticed is the speaker Phone doesn't work the person on the other side can't hear my voice for some reason.

PLEASE HELP. Otherwise this is great rom fast, great battery life. Thank you so and I love the all black theme with little green.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tacotino:
Have you tried to flash it again without wipe?

Did you let it load after you flashed the rom? As in flashed it the rom, reboot, then recovery, flash theme?

Has anyone experienced that phone keeps a little on the warm side? I was using the OTA rom before it was never so warm. Then I installed the alien 3 rom now my phone is always a little warm. It starts boiling if I use google talk for video chat. Music + browsing xda makes my phone warm. Never used to be the case earlier.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Maroon Mushroom:
mine does too. With a stock rom + faux kernel. As long as the plastic isn't melting I'm okay with it, haha. I think it's just related to screen brightness and duration of use with the screen on more than anything else
[Atrix 4G Android Development] anupash:
But with the same usage pattern it was never so hot earlier. I wanted to find the cause, maybe a misbehaving app or some wrong configuration. If anybody has any ideas as to how to.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] anupash:
Regarding color scheme in Blur Email :

The Alien theme has wrong color schemes in the blur email. I don't know if it has been reported earlier, because it was a more than a 100 pages to read and I might have missed it.

The color schemes are wrong on pressing the menu button. Also when trying to navigate to the folders or sent items, the background is all black over black text.

boots fast, battery is stable, but the Wi-Fi still doesn't cooperate with green power. on wake it says it's Wi-Fi networks are available, in settings it says it's obtaining an ip, but you don't see a list of networks and never obtains an ip
[Atrix 4G Android Development] AnalogXDA:
I really had no idea it would be so simple, thanks.

I actually ended up taking a shortcut: since I already had the theme installed, I extracted the apk from a copy of the basic ROM on my SD card, and pasted it into /system/app on the phone after renaming the existing (themed) apk. Changed permissions and ownership appropriately, rebooted, et voila!

Next time I flash a theme I'll do it your way. Thanks again.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] oOnEe:
My Wifi seems to get down from time to time as well although it's set to always UP... This is pretty annoying since I have to log on a web portal each time the connection is made (I use Wifi Web Login for this) at my office.

With my old Desire it used to stay always UP, but not with the Atrix...

For information, I've installed the last Bell radio.

Do you know if this is fixable ?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ranova:
GPS lock is horribly slow... up to 3-5 minutes after not rebooting the phone for a day or two. It seems that if I reboot, the speed of the lock is a lot better.

Once GPS is locked, it seems that its not that accurate - there is a blue aura around my location constantly. This rarely happened in Froyo...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] diedemus:

In the My location section, do you have use wireless networks checked? also having wifi turned on helps with this. If I remember correctly this was turned on by default under the stock froyo, but I could be wrong there.

Had a wierd issue when updating from 2-3 and then installing the theme 3.

Doing a full data wipe and install now to see if the problem goes away.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] JayRolla:
Here is the issue I had, not sure what was up but if someone else has this issue let me know.

First install I updated from 2-3 and then installed the theme 3 over theme 2.

Issue #1

When I made a new call I could not hear the ringing on the other side or the person talk when they picked up. They could hear me fine.

Fix

I then tried a full wipe install of 3, booted into the phone, installed the theme update. Tried to make a call and same issue. I then started thinking it was hardware.

I then installed pieCrust full wipe. I made a call and I could not hear the ringing. Then when my wife was talking for about 3 seconds it all of a sudden just came back and now its working fine.

Not sure if it was this ROM or some hardware failure thats going to haunt me for a while till I fix it or it fails. Kind of a wierd issue.

Working now though but I'm running pieCrust right now.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] cthomas5714:
Great rom my friend, i just have few things to say. First off this theme is amazing, im in love. The only thing that i have found that is not themed would be the data/battery manager, its still stock. Something that does bother me though would be the fact that the market doesnt recognize my device as a tegra 2 sooo you know what that means. :( i could also be a problem with faux OC kernal, i havent found that out exactly yet. Other than those two small things this rom is the best ive come across so far. Keep up the good work; your the man!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Rubb:
Maybe some ppl simply doesnt have enough time available to read 115+ page of a thread.

I don´t mind if I see 30 users asking for directions. Doubts are understandable. I bet if there was a complete guide, or even a comprehensible for those who aren´t techs, the number os those "useless" posts would reduce drastically.

At build #3.

battery life seems to be MUCH better :) nice job Kenn! :)

As reported by many other users, that are still some black on black areas in this build...the most annoying being the Contact data.

Still.....helluva job :) great work!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] :
Guys, guys...why can't we all get along huh?

Let's use this pattern made by our friend OrangeOfCourse and follow this and keep adding our legit problems here:

Make sure you are using right techniques to install that are mentioned by Ken and then if you run into issues, add it to the list here.

Makes it easy for people and for the dev.

These numbers will help keep track of bugs and people would just add their issues:

1) Settings > Battery & Data manager. White background on this screen.

2) Settings > Battery & Data manager > Data Delivery. White background on this screen.

3) Settings > Location & Security > Calibrate Compass. White background on this screen.

4) Settings > Location & Security > Calibrate Compass > Calibrate. White background on this screen.

5) Settings > Location & Security > Calibrate Compass > Calibrate. Compass will not calibrate.

6)

7)

8)

...

Trust me, I tried messing with ROMs and it's a lot of work so let's give Ken a break here and help him fix stuff instead of fighting and making this thread dirty :)

You go Ken. Loving the ROM so far. I had battery drain on me real fast so I am going to flash it again once battery charges to 100% while my phone is off.

Thank you.

I just did a fresh install using the instructions found on page 120 of this thread and I have a weird problem. My APN list now only has 1 entry titled 'AT&T 310 410'. Before I wiped I was running Alien 3 and had the normal list of APNs. Did I do something wrong? How do I get my APNs back?

Restoring default APNs doesn't help either, still have just 1 APN entry.. Could it have something to do with skipping blur setup?

This was my install method:

Wipe Dalvik Cache and Cache, Factory reset

rebooted recovery

installed alien 3

rebooted phone

skipped blur, let the phone sit on home screen for 15 minutes to build system cache

Went to look at my APNs, noticed I only had 1

Did a default APN restore, still only 1

Signed in to my google account, let everything sync

rebooted

cleared dalvik cache and cache again

installed alien theme 3

rebooted

[Atrix 4G Android Development] nineismine:
Sounds like what happens when you install the theme.zip without first booting into the rom.

To be more detailed:

You must always install the rom , restart , allow system to boot, power down re-enter Recovery and then finally install the theme.

I'm not annoyed, or irritated, I'm posting this with the coolest of heads, don't get me wrong. But the less people ask the same questions, the more readily avaiable answers will be, as the threads will be much, much smoother to navigate.

And I believe guides are comprehensive and simple enough. The Atrix is my first Android device (you can tell by my join date, mm?), I never studied anything technologically related on college, I'm 23 yo and never had a job, so I'm not exactly an example of genius or overachiever.

I am in no way choosing sides here, but I am a noob and I haven't had to post a single question yet. I got my first android phone a little over a month ago, and I've learned to root, unlock, flash roms, kernels, themes, radios, edit build.prop files, adb, rsd, and a litany of other things just by searching and reading. The only things I've posted are bugs I've found and tips I know of. Maybe one or two questions, but I honestly don't think I have.

And playing the devils advocate, I have to point out that for those who complain about having to read 100+ pages.. First of all change your forum settings to show 50 or 100 posts per page and it's a lot easier to skim through.

Second of all, the only reason it's 100 pages I'm the first place is because of all the repeat questions. If no one posted duplicate questions, it would probably be less than half the length.
