FAQ (Frequenty Asked Questions)

Q. Is this based on kennethpenn's ROM?

A. NO, it is not based on kenneth's ROM. While we both used a lot of the same sources for our modifications, and our features are similar, I made all of the modifications myself wherever possible and gave credit (see above) to those whose work I have used.
​

Q. What is the difference between CHERRYπ and CherryBlur ROMs?

A. CherryBlur is currently based on the Orange FR 2.3.4 build (4.5.2A) so it is more internationally friendly. CHERRYπ is based on the AT&T 2.3.4 build (4.5.91) so it's more friendly towards US specific handsets.​

Q. Will this work on an international model Atrix?

A. I have not tested this, and the included kernel is for AT&T only so flashing it as it is will cause a "soft brick" on an international model. It might work ok to flash one of faux123's kernels for international models immediately after flashing one of my ROMs (before rebooting).
​

Q. Will other 4.5.91 themes work over these ROMs?

A. In theory, yes, I have not tried any of them though! The only "major" framework changes I made were for the 1% battery mod, so if you flash another theme that already has it I don't see why it wouldn't work. Make a backup, try it out, and PM me the results! Tested working themes WILL be linked from the first post so users have more choices!
​

Q. I flashed and I'm stuck in a bootloop (or I can't get past the dual-core screen)

A. You either flashed to an international model (which is unsupported right now) or you flashed a corrupted download. IF you have an actual AT&T handset then re-download the ROM and flash it again.
​

Q. I flashed an update and now I'm getting FC (force close) errors on "main" or "phone", help!

A. Flash the full-wipe ROM instead of the updater! Make sure you are using the stock kernel as well! The updater, in many cases, causes issues but if I don't make it available my inbox will be flooded with requests for it.
​

Q. Why does your ROM install script wipe data (factory reset)?

Whenever you switch between ROMs (or upgrade ROMs) it's best to perform a wipe. Otherwise you will almost certainly find little things not working and have to wipe later anyways.
​

Q. I thought you said in the CherryBlur thread that CHERRYπ would be de-blurred or have bloatware removed?

A. Eventually it will be forked (pun intended) to have "slices" which are various levels of de-blur and bloat removal
​

Q. Who are the brave souls that are helping you test?

A. amirseg, sporrer, rredlin, zoso28, aaronf6983, acer73, and snake32493 all responded to my call for tested in the CherryBlur thread. They are helping me run each ROM through it's paces looking for bugs prior to release. THANK YOU TESTERS!

Thanks..

downloading now!!:)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sauronith:
So I can just use the Mobile Hotspot in Wireless Networks and Connections for free?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xepter:
lets get this testings
[Atrix 4G Android Development] navalynt:
It's enabled ... but I have heard stories of people using the Hotspot feature then AT&T, without their permission, billing them for a tethering package. I can't verify this because I don't use AT&T and my carrier doesn't restrict tethering/hotspot.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Charsher47:
Thanks for the new rom! Is launcher pro used in this like cheryblur?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tykazowsky:
Sexy.

Which kernel?

EDIT: I guess I can see in your screenshot :P sorry
[Atrix 4G Android Development] navalynt:
Yes, but that is easily removable using TitaniumBackup which is also pre-installed. I updated the features list to make the "Applications Added" at the top for more viability.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] scpmp803:
I cant be the only one that saw "FBI Surveillance Van #124" in the Wi-fi list screenshot :eek: :D
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Tikerz:
Crust is a great idea. For people like me who like it stock, finally there's an optimized ROM for us. Thank you!!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] navalynt:
I did that for fun to try an make my neighbors paranoid :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jjwatmyself:
Impressive! Congrats.

Edit: I see the build number says CHRRYp v0. 2 How about CHERRY(3.142) v0.2?

Btw What is the difference between themes CHERRY(3.142) and (3.142)CRUST?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] navalynt:
(3.142)CRUST is the stock MotoBlur theme. Nothing special, just a crust ;) I didn't think it worth the time to post screenshots of the stock theme, but I can if requested. The OP could always use more filling!

CHERRY(3.142) is the real fruit of my labors. I'd pit it against other ROMs any day. It's really blossomed in the past week or so.

Am I laying it on too thick?

Edit: Where the π symbol will show correctly I'll use that, otherwise I'll use (3.14159) for more accuracy
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jjwatmyself:
I like your style! All this talk from me for so long and I'm finally going to move up from Froyo!

I am very interested in the debuted ROM developments. At v0. 2 do you recommend for or against skipping the Moto account config during installation?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Tikerz:
I just flashed crust and wifi won't turn on. Says error.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] -JFK-:
Hi Navalynt,

Will you made a version as light as possible ?

I think to remove all Blur and useless stuff in /system/app like :

Blur_email.apk

Blur_facebook.apk

Blur_flickr.apk

FriendFeed.apk

HelpCenter.apk...

Or where can I found a list with all removable (by removable I say possible to rename with Root Explorer XXX.apk.bak) stuff to make the system as light and fast as possible ?

Thank you !
[Atrix 4G Android Development] navalynt:
I will double check (3.14159)CRUST in the morning. In the interim, look on my CherryBlur thread for the AT&T kernel and reapply it. Or try one of Faux123 kernels.

I hope I didnt miss something stupid obvious before I uploaded.

OR, download CHERRY(3.14159) then apply the other theme. Once I verify the problem I will reupload the file and leave a note next to it in the OP that its fixed.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] navalynt:
That is coming this weekend when I have more time for trial & error testing with the bloag removal.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] navalynt:
Since I stupidly locked myself out of my apartment this afternoon and had to walk down one of the many scenic trails in Anchorage to visit my wife at work I took a bunch of pictures along the way, including a 1080p video of water flowing down a creek. I'll upload those in a little while here so you all can see how great the D3 camera really is!

I've always had issues with phone camera pictures being either "shakey", washed out, or looking like low-res trash but this D3 camera is really impressing me!

Here's some of the photos:

[Atrix 4G Android Development] VeNuMuS:
Those pics look amazing. The detail and color is impressive. Good thing I flashed my phone with your Rom today. Time to snap some pics.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ch33sy:
Does anyone have any problems with mobile hotspot. Flashed 0.3 and cant seem to get tethering working.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] pavankvn:
I just installed the cherry pie rom... Everything seems OK. Had a couple of fcs nothing major though. I'll see how the battery life compares. BTW I skipped the motoblur login.

Thanks for this rom navalynt ... I like the theme..

Just flashed the D3 on PiCrust 0.2 (Or at least thought I've flashed it), and no change whatsoever....

I wonder, will just installing the .apk in the zip will be enough?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Jonous:
Battery at it's best!

Rom flies, i'm getting froyo battery drain!! :D not missing froyo anymore, totaly complete this rom from every aspect. Also loving the new d3 camera with the new features! Thanks again, keep it up! ;)

Nice crisp photos. Also great place you got there ;)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Jack Krauser:
I restored the backup of (APKs + Data) using Mybackup root and got unresponsive soft keys after rebooting ... reinstalling and still not working

I flashed my pds partion via fastboot and response comes back

Then I restored (Just APKs) and got the same issue

I'm wondring what cause this

(how to install apks is not my problem)

And thanks navalynt for ur amazing rom .. I really like Droid cam and 2G/3G switching
[Atrix 4G Android Development] i2mirage:
buttons

love your rom. but i have one recommendation. can you use flat buttons instead of glossy buttons? glossy buttons tends to look bit weird with texts. just a suggestion...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Charsher47:
My 720p recordings look better than my 1080p recordings...The new camera app is cool though :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Datblkbro:
Hey sup Nav

I still on ur cherryblur Rom, but think imma be flashing this one lata today.. Just catching up on ur thread first.. Reading just about everything first.. Once flash I will report back, also nav do this version have the new market r old market, and the red market mod would also work on this right??
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Datblkbro:
My titanium backup not working.. when I hit batch im getting this message

Sorry, System requirements were not met. Please check error message on startup..

But im not getting a error message..
[Atrix 4G Android Development] quicklyspent:
Clear defaults and cache for titanium and try again. You probably missed the root auth.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Datblkbro:
how i do dat? u probably right just set phone down not paying attention.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bongd:
How u do dat? U do dat in Superuser. Den u open Titanium and authorize when requested.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Datblkbro:
oh yea dat..lol thx got it

haha
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Datblkbro:
also was wondering is it ok, to run one of the mod kernels on this
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bongd:
You should be good to go because I presume you've got an AT&T Atrix. Just make sure you've got the original kernel also saved in case you get stuck in bootloops and need to flash it back.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Datblkbro:
alright thx again..
[Atrix 4G Android Development] live4nyy:
I have a question about the Hotspot "entitlement" mod. I noticed that there is also an "updated APNs" in the modifications for the ROM. Also, I have read elsewhere that AT&T has been able to detect unauthorized tethering by cross referencing accounts with which APN their data is using (and this is for customers with iPhones).

Anyways, my question is with the "updated" APNs within this ROM, does it route the data through the same APN for both regular data and hotspot?

I know this might not be the best place to ask this but my question is specific to this ROM and I also know that no one has been "served" by AT&T using an Android phone but I am wondering if this could be a method to avoid detection.

How do I uninstall the s***** version of tibu?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] justdrew:
delete with root explorer install tb then uninstall if Fcs and reinstall
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bongd:
Searched this thread but I'm not sure if the search function is broken or there's just no results. Has anyone with a Bell or International Atrix flashed this with success? I'm using CherryBlur as I know the Orange ROMs work for my Bell Atrix. Had nothing but trouble with anything AT&T related though.

I would really love to get the Droid 3 camera working but it just won't work. Others have had trouble too but it seems like it's compatible with AT&T based ROMs. Hope that someone can help. Thanks!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Magnetox:
Im running picherry on bell ATRIX using edgans d00 int'l kernel
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bongd:
o'rly?

Same here, same tegra parts too. Does the Droid 3 camera work for you by any chance? I'm desperate to get it working. Looks awesome!

If it does, I suppose I'll make the transition over to this ROM! :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Magnetox:
Yes it does :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Magnetox:
Deleted it in system apps and dalvik cache. Still not working properly. Anything I missed?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] derechbennoach:
Make sure development is on in applications.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bongd:
Awesome! Thanks again!

In the CherryBlur ROM I simply downloaded it from the Market again and it installed over the one that was included. It was a French version of Titanium though. Perhaps if you download it in the Market it'll do the same. Not too sure though... will be flashing this ROM tonight though.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Whipon:
Isn't working for me either.

Anyways, thank you very much for this rom. It runs flawlessly and I have great battery life with faux's kernel (no oc / uv).
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rpiton:
On international Atrix we have the ram problem were it reads only 280 mb.

Is there a way to fix it?

Thanks.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] larzred:
Install Faux's or Edgan's international kernel based on your proper tegra part (read instructions in either of those kernel posts). I am running Faux's, but both work!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rpiton:
I have to install the kernel before the rom?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1156040

From this post, the internacional 2.3.4 leak, Tegrapart=1100 Compatible with Orange 4_5.2.1A ROM??

Thanks.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bongd:
Install that after installing the ROM so you can make full use of your RAM. Otherwise you'll be stuck with the smaller amount of RAM.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rpiton:
Thanks, worked fine.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bongd:
Awesome! Glad to hear :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Vicious Von:
Can I get pointed in the right direction of getting the d3 camera to work properly.

my Atrix came from outerspace. It's an alien.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] navalynt:
I made an attempt at fixing the "raindrop" problem, and I guess it didn't fix anything, but it didn't break anything either so there's that ;) I just don't have time to run through by trial and error editing the /system/etc/touchpad files.

If someone does have the time and drive to try and find/fix that problem please let me know when you get it working and I will incorporate it into the next release!

If you are still on Alien then ask in that thread please. Otherwise if you flashed over using the full wipe ROM for CHERRYπ v0.3 (or πCRUST) you should have fully functional D3 camera. If you just tried to apply the update intended for v0.2 -> v0.3 over Alien then go back and flash the full wipe instead.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] navalynt:
Most of the reported errors for CHERRYπ and πCRUST have been "human error" thus far. I don't see any reason for another update for a few days since these ROMs are giving outstanding performance and I have not yet incorporated any extra features yet.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Magnetox:
Remove tibu it was a pain in the ass to uninstall in order to install the pro version
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jevers77:
I can't get this theme to work right either, unless it is not totally supposed to look like the pictures. I've been trying all afternoon. I get the correct lock screen but that's it. Is the clock and bottom icons(call, text, etc) part of something else? I know I'm flashing it right, I had alien theme over the top of this rom and it was fine, but that's not what I want.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] navalynt:
Those are all things you can set via LauncherPro. For the actual icons and dockbar icon I used in LauncherPro (as seen in the screenshots) search for CherryBlur in the Themes and Apps section. I have a ZIP file attached to the OP there which has the icons for LauncherPro

TiBu doesn't have a specific APK that I know of for the Pro version. You can pay for the license key in the Market which enabled the pro features, or you can donate directly and get a key file to place on your microSD card which enables the pro features, but either way it all used the same actual APK for TiBu which is what I have included in the ROM.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jevers77:
Thanks, this has been driving me crazy. I haven't messed with any themes before and I never used launcher pro. I bought it thinking maybe I needed the full version but I guess not. With your help I'll get it figured out now. Great rom by the way, super fast, makes it feel like a whole new phone.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Magnetox:
It does have a pro apk it is just not from android market if you catch my drift. I would donate for pro but the exchange rates are wrong for canadian users so I feel cheated :p
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Dystopiq:
My com.android.phone process keeps stopping. I've tried pretty much everything I could find to try and remedy this and it still keeps happening.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] CaelanT:
So you cheat the developer instead???

I have an international model and I'm interested in installing piCrust, are there any unique issues to the international model that I should be aware of (besides the RAM issue of course)?

No. There is no ram issue if you install edgans int'l kernel

Just curious, when I wipe from cmw then install ROM which also does a wipe none if my data its gone. Apps, settings, everything its the same but themed. Am I missing something. Also my over clock kernel its still functional even though the installation days flashing stock kernel...

The new camera its there,1080 its working so I assume it went well, just wanted to start fresh and look like the images here

I installed pie crust full, was previously on cherryblur. everything worked fine except for data. for some reason data did not work. I reset APN's to default etc. I did another full wipe and reinstalled it again and had the same exact issue. I tried using faux's kernel and the stock kernel in the rom. I'm also on AT&T. anyone else have this problem?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] cailloup:
Flashed cherrypi v0.3 yesterday:

- Battery life is ok (I'm still having phone idle at 50% in battery usage under classic use, is it too much?)

- D3 camera is great, user interface is better (my opinion), you can choose focus spot, photos are better, 1080p video working (but a bit laggy for me), and 720p is also there

- data while GPS is working, GPS fix is fast

- Entertainement center in 16/9 working, I have no sound with .mkv

- Webtop with HDMI working well, internet through 3G or wifi

- Apn, tethering and mms ok

- french Atrix

:D!

Would it possible to have HDMI mirroring as a 3rd option when HDMI is plugged? (with a working entertainement center)

Is there a way to have subtaitles .srt in movies in the entertainement center?

Other idea: next song and previous song with long press on volume buttons?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] akoni1p:
What is the MD5 on the files?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] live4nyy:
I had a similar issue. I was on CherryPi and decided to go with PiCrust but when I flashed it there was still some "Cherry" (theme) left in it. So I went back to CWM and wiped data, cache partition, and dalvik. Flashed Crust again and everything looks okay.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] live4nyy:
I'm using Crust as well, my data works but I can't get hotspot to work. When you reset the APNs to default do they come back as the same (eg. ATT PHONE, ATT WAP, and BROADBAND) or do they default to how the Stock build has them (eg. AT&T US, AT&T US HSDPA, AT&T US TETHER, and AT&T US MMS)???
[Atrix 4G Android Development] farrah.rio:
do not use the recovery from the rom manager. flash the tenfar´s recovery from fastboot.. you can also wipe from fastboot mode by doing: fastboot -w
[Atrix 4G Android Development] live4nyy:
Sorry, that's what I meant. Tenfar's Recovery!! That's what I used.Thanks you for catching that.

I didn't realize that you were in Anchorage as well! If you ever need help with anything with testing the phone I'd be willing to help!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] navalynt:
Use mVideoPlayer from the Market. Lets you download and use subtitles for movies. The audio issue ... can you tell me the codec and setting for which the audio was encoded in the MKV file?

Unless someone releases an easy-to-use HDMI mirroring solution and/or an app that will let you easily choose between mirroring and webtop-over-hdmi no.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bongd:
agrabren has committed to working on a landscape HDMI mirroring solution, but he's got a lot on his plate at the moment.

Also, I've just flashed this ROM on my Bell Atrix and it works great. Whew! I was concerned as the preliminary AT&T ROMs weren't working too great up until recently. Fantastic work, my friend! So glad to be able to use these releases. Very clean and have all the mods I was manually applying myself (very painstaking but got the job done).
[Atrix 4G Android Development] farrah.rio:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=988852

with these settings and the hdmi mirror app, i´m using crust with mirroring/webtop just fine.. the app enables/disables the mirroring so you can turn on/off going to webtop..

i also flashed the webtop over hdmi cwm just after flash crust, the intnl 0.1.2 oced faux kernel and the theme i like the most (AOSP gingerbread).

it all works real fine together. i froze some bloats and found out the yahoo autenticator was an issue on force closing the contacts.. somehow blur is linked to yahoo´s bussines.

overall on a brazilian atrix with all this above, i´m running preety smooth... battery is draining a little bit fast on idle, but maybe it could be one of my apps and monitoring widgets.. the data sometimes when idle, it´s like it turn the apn off by it self, and everytime i get it back but just getting in 2g/3g menu...

i think you can make a real "complete" rom by adding these features by default on the crust.. i see you like photographing and maybe music too,... i read a post here someone saying about the feature that skips or repeat the music pressing the volume while loked.. this is really nice too if you can get implemented.. other thing i saw by flashing all the roms around here is a HDMI and a DOCK option on the settings... it´s kinda useless but as i said, it could make the rom more "complete" with all this...

nice work i´m enjoying the crust and whilling to flash new recepies!! :D
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Pat123:
How are you able to do that? I always thought Atrix camera does not have "Manual focus" feature (probably a hardware limitation or something)!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
I think you just tap the screen where you want it to focus...that's how all the other cameras work.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Pat123:
Yep, on mine the focus point doesn't change no matter where I click on the screen!
