How can I partition my SD with ext4? and what size should I use for a 8Gb microSD? for using with S2E and move my apps to SD?

(I have CWM based recovery v5.0.2.3-atrix4.1 recovery, and the Partition SD only creates an EXT partition.. what size should I give)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ghost_og:
His instructions are correct. Once you go into Settings>>Applications>>Manage applications>>All you will see a list of apps. Select the app that is currently performing the operation, click "Clear defaults", and now go and open the file that you wanted to change. A dialog will appear asking you to choose the app you want to use to open it.

Check the last few pages regarding the newest update. It's been delayed.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sjroberts98:
I'm definitely not as technical as you, so I'm a bit lost in the syntax. I really like Aura, but running 1.2.1.2 Accounts I've started to have a lot of fc's today (3 days and about a dozen boots after installing). GTalk won't run, GMail doesn't update, etc.

I know it is a custom ROM and should expect some issues, but what version should I go to for the most stable Aura?

My thoughts on options:

-flash 1.2.1.1 because it has journaling

-re-flash 1.2.1.2 then flash Div's user script for EXT4 since it has journaling

-something else?

Thanks, I'm trying to read and keep up, and really appreciate the knowledge that is shared here.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] GeNiO426:
I'm running 1.2.1.3 and I don't get any FC's or random reboots. I've been running on this version for a few days now, too.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Diviance:
Sadly, I don't intend to add in the volume wake option directly into the Rom. However, when I get back I will see about modifying the file from my own rom and adding it up as a CWM flashable zip to add it in. But no, I don't like the option so it will never be more than an addon option :)

Though depending on which version of journaling you use, it will record either just metadata or pretty much every little thing :D

1.2.1.1 is the more stable since it is rocking journaling.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] trogdan:
IMHO most stable will be 1.1.3 build #8, as this is prior to the faux 1.3GHz OC and playing with ext4.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sjroberts98:
Really appreciate the response, since I know you are trying to take some time away.

Read your reply while flashing 1.2.1.3 Blur, so if I have issues I'll flash 1.2.1.1.

Thanks again, really appreciate the work you have put into the ROM.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] plaster:
Have you plugged in your USB cable in that time? Mine was running fine for days as well. Up until I tried to connect to my PC to pull off some photos. Phone rebooted instantly and upon reboot my internal SD was no longer able to mount. Eventually I wiped the phone completely and reinstalled cm7. If you haven't connected to your PC yet, don't do it. If you have and had no problems, consider yourself lucky. ;-)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sjroberts98:
Interesting that I read your post right after I flashed 1.2.1.3 Blur and connected to USB to add 1.2.1.1 Blur to my internal SD. I didn't have a problem, and I very rarely connect except to add a ROM to the phone's memory.

But now I have 1.2.1.1 on the phone, so if I run in to issues I'll just do a data reset, then wipe, then flash from recovery.

Thanks for the heads up.

The Webtop version of 1.1.0 is in the Aura Downloads link in the OP. See if that works for you. If so, applying the 1.1.1 Patch Update will get you to 1.1.1 with no trouble.

soft reboots after install

I installed 1.2.1.2 version and the first boot is alright but when i reboot it goes into repeated reboots ( soft reboots ).

it shows aura bootanimation shows homescreen for a second and then again reboots . seems like when its trying to acquire the cellular network it reboots.

i am in N_1.77.30P radio i didn't have any problem in other ROMs like alien and homebased.

any ideas?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] msd24200:
Did you restore apps + data? If so reflash and just restore apps and not the data.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] GeNiO426:
Really? Every single build of Aura I've ever installed has always given me better battery life than stock. I've tried the Alien ROM and will be trying the Homebase ROM as well so I'm not sure how Aura stacks up against other ROM's.

Did you wipe & install everything properly? Corrupt data can cause some issues and the only time I ever got soft boots with this ROM is if I did something wrong. Usually I just used fastboot to wipe everything, flash romracer's Recovery (if the Recovery was wiped), then just install the ROM through that and it works fine.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Takenover83:
Sounds like the file system borked. Install the Journaling script to avoid this problem.

Dear Aura, I love your ROM, but I don't if it's only to me or not that 4.5.91 based RＯＭs are quite battery-consuming on my international Atrix. Would you consider to build another version of Aura ROM based on 4.5.2A? Thanks a lot.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] hem.acharya:
i have also tried every ROMs of GB from CM7 to aura to alien to homebase and what not. AURA give me good battery life than any other GB rom

but when i go back to my froyo image the battery life is tremendously awesome. i am changing ROMs almost like everyday since we got unlocked bootloaded. and i may end up deciding to go back to Froyo :)

also the free RAM memory in Froyo with all that motoblur crap is still 650+MB when i kill all apps compared to max of 550 mb in any GB rom ( except for CM7 whre i see 640mb sometimes)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Filipeknot:
this rom is better than HOME BASE? More stable? Or at least more bug-free?

What the difference between BLURRED and ACCOUNTS on repository?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
Home Base Blue Chronic + latest update is awesome. The EXT-4 vesion is gone now from downloads so try out the ext-3. I love Aura too, I suppose I'll have to try out the blurred versions and see how they work compared to deblurred. Good luck all, happy flashing.

Battery drain

Yes.. in fact, It was made over a new Atrix (with stock rom). I rooted, put the CWS Recovery and wiped all, partitioned a total new SD 8Gb (gave 2Gb for ext) and installed... so, I guess it's impossible a better scenario of new and clean installation, right?

How long last the battery for you?

I see 2 things:

* the recalled 1.2.1.4 version (not available anymore) said in the description that that version fixed a problem with the battery drain.. So, the problem shouldn't be just me... but everyone!

* I don't even have an option in Net Options for disabling the 3G (data connection).. So, it's always ON.. even when I didn't defined an APN (I still don't have an economic plan).

What is easy way to test if journaling enabled or disabled?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] GeNiO426:
Wiping via fastboot usually works better for me and is more of a "complete wipe" then wiping through any Recovery.

I just took my phone off the charger a couple of minutes ago at 100% charged and ZDbox says just over 44 hours until the battery is completely drained. As for actual usage, I'll probably get over a full 24 hours before it's fully drained. When I was on the Stock ROM I would have to charge 1-2 times to get a full 24 hours out of it. Also, make sure you calibrate your battery as well. That's key in keeping it healthy and getting the most out of it.

The "recalled version" had issues, according to Diviance, but he said he would get it up as soon as he figured them out. As far as I can remember, he recommended installed 1.2.1.1 as it's probably the most stable right now. I went ahead with that recommendation and it actually is very stable, I have had no FC's yet after several reboots, the battery gets good usage (more than I had), available memory stays pretty consistent and high, and my benchmarks have been the highest I've had on the Atrix with the Aura ROM so far (I almost hit 7k, literally was at 6989). I tried the Alien ROM and my benchmarks were a lot lower and the phone just didn't run as fast/smooth. I'm going to be trying out the HomeBase and DarkSide ROM's within the next day or two and see what they can do, too.

As for the data connection, I think someone gave an answer where that option is so try that out and see what happens.

The "Blurred" version essentially still has all of the MotoBlur in it, it's just stripped of the bloat and whatnot. The "Accounts" version is a slightly smaller version of the "Blurred" version whereas it has all of the stuff required to use and setup the Accounts section on the Atrix. The "DeBloat" version has pretty much everything non-essential stripped and is the "lightest" version available.

Check out Diviance's site at the bottom of the "Downloads" page for his definitions of the 3 versions.

---------- Post added at 07:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:20 PM ----------

Until Div can get that fixed, I would use 1.2.1.1 as it doesn't have that bug. I just connected mine before writing this to be positive and everything works fine.

---------- Post added at 07:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:22 PM ----------

The first rule you should know when asking about anything a developer makes is not to ask for timelines. The majority of these are completely free so whenever they can get around to updating/released a new version should not need a timeline, but on their own terms and time.

As far as I know, though, Div just said whenever he can figure out the bugs h will upload the new version.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Filipeknot:
Thx!

For updates check on rom manager, i need to install the recovery! Its secure?

Have somebody tryed this?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] GeNiO426:
Yeah, installing the Recovery via Rom Manager is fine. I usually do that, but I have found that romracer's Recovery works well, too, so I just flash that one instead. Both do pretty much the same thing; they're both Recoveries. When you do it, though, make sure you give it access to your Root via Super User otherwise it won't work.

EDIT: I just remembered that some ROM's actually require you to flash using the latest RomRacer Recovery and not ROM Manager (ie The DarkSide v2.0).

Wow. x.x.1.3 update nearly screwed up my phone, flashing x.x.1.2 update restored some of the functionality but market is FC'ing every time i try to use it and on top of that the screen display variety of effects...

[Atrix 4G Android Development] GeNiO426:
Try flashing 1.2.1.1. I've had it on my phone for the past few days since Div suggested it as the most stable version right now and have not had one single problem yet. I've had no FC's and every app I've downloaded, installed, and used so far has worked just fine.

I've tried both Aura 1.2.1.1 Deblurred as well as Accounts and am getting persistent com.motorola.service.main force closes upon every new corporate email; I also don't receive notification. At this stage I assume that I either need to run with a Blurred variant of Aura or try something else?

Also unfortunate that I can't use the CM7 EMail.apk as it lacks the corporate security policies to function.
