Hello. I installed the 2.3.6, and it worked great, but once I put the deoxed version everytime I put the phone I the pocket the phone will shut down and I have to hard boot it. Is their a way to use the dioxide version and have it restore to "stock locked boot loader". The reason I asked this is because I had this problem before with other roms but only once I used 2.3.6 "stock" and in the cwm it said restored stock lock bootloader. And no more pocket shutdowns.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
Hi,

What probably happened is that on the retry it was a different recovery that had already been flashed before it got to system.

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] vick1w:
Just want to thank you..

I wil try it tonight, however I want to thank you in advance.. and specially your partition backup scripts really helped me get my phone back..

thanks man..

Might be a stupid question ... this is sim unlocked right ? the apn menu is unlocked too ?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] dillfever:
No, that is something totally different, have to purchase a key code to enter on your phone......
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NiKTaMeR:
Nah I know but the custom roms are always pre unlocked... I understand this is not a custom roms though, what about the apn menu, can it be edited ?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] plemen:
You can't change the Bell APN but you can create others and change the phone to use those.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] plemen:
BTW thanks for packaging this up NFH! Really much easier than the page of instructions I had typed up :D

Also - dig the ascii art in the CWM - is that your son/daughter? I recall ascii art in my college days with the 2400 baud modems and BBS's - good times!

Download superuser from the market broseph
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ChongoDroid:
Ps yes this is truly awesome for bell users... Leaps and bounds better then orange and was it just me but does fauxs kernels all contain the phone idle bug? This still has a high phone idle but at least its not the highest like other "international" builds... But hey at least I'm getting really good battery life. :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Greenbelt:
I tried superuser from the market. It's installed but does not give me root, at least I don't think it does. When I try to load TiBu it says I don't have root.

Before I downloaded superuser I tried flashing this (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1140110&page=4) zip using recovery to try and get root. That doesn't appear to have worked either.

Hi,

You're welcome!

[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
Hi,

After flashing this, you should be able to go to adb shell, type shsu and have root access, from there you can install whatever root like files you desire.

Cheers!

Something went wrong..

I had 2.2.2 to start with, rooted.

installed ok. but then it rebooted it got stuck withthis message

"Failed to boot 2"

"Starting RSD Mode"

not sure what went wrong.. but I will try to restore back to 2.2.2 somehow and try again..
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
You only get that message with a non unlocked bootloader, so do the IHOP again.

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] vick1w:
Ihop

Hi,

how do I do that? I started RSD it does not recognize my device..

not sure how to do the IHOP thing..appreciate your help.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
Hi,

If you can't get RSD working, did you get your phone unlocked in the first place? If your phone is in rsd mode you should be able to connect via RSD. If Windows isn't working, you can use sbf_flash from linux.

You may fnd what you are looking for here:

EDIT: I can get that message by flashing the locked bootloader from the Bell GB leak. The reason is that the boot partition doesn't match the signature since it has been modified with the ram fix. If for instance I flashed it with the stock boot image, it would boot fine. Well, probably stock recovery would have to be set back to stock as well.

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] devin_mm:
I always seem to have issues with RSD not recognizing my device as well, it could be due to the fact that it's a work laptop on a corporate network and various policies involved. What I do to solve it is run the Motorola Driver Installation software and do a "Clean and reinstall" then RSD recognizes it right away.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Zero-K:
Thanks NFHimself!

I was holding off on the unlock/2.3.4 update until it was a little more refined. Seeing this I figured I would give it a try.

Unlock = no problem.

CWM = I already had it installed, but read about the new one in RomManager. Gave it a try, didn't work. Installed fine but wouldn't flash the Bell 2.3.4.zip file. Rebooted into recovery (which ironically was tenfar's) and did a nandroid restore. That left me in a bootloop. Ended up having to reflash tenfar's CWM recovery, then install the Bell 2.3.4.zip and now it's up and running great so far.

Well needed upgrade from 2.2.2 :)

The speed increase is quite nice. I wasn't expecting it to be that much faster just with regular use things.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
Hi,

Glad it all worked out for you! I haven't used nandroid with tenfar's recovery, I just use it as a launch point for zips.

About tenfar's recovery, while the one I have baked in works for my purposes, if/when there are updates to it, it would have to be updated with ones including ram fixes. I have the zip playing it safe (ish) by using internal memory for the larger system images, so even the un-ram-fixed version should work. However, another issue is the mount point is defined as /internal by tenfar's and /sdcard by rom manager's version of CWM recovery. It should probably be the same for both, so if tenfar updates his to match then this gobstopper would have to be updated as well. This is all about the bootloader bug that doesn't add in the second mem = 512MB@512MB bit in the cmdline passed to the kernel. If a better bootloader for Bell/int phones were found it would solve these issues. I could use /tmp and be done with it. :)

Cheers!

This is by far the best rom for international users, I was getting ten hours on any gingerbread build with any combination of faux/ original kernels... will report the first test on battery... so far it passed my idle drain test with flying colors... Avg 1.8 % per hour. So far pure win.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Mossys:
Agreed.

Best for international.

Using the Bell Stock kernel installed via cwm.

No over heating.

No random reboots.

Stable :D

I just want to get titanium backup working. I've never used adb shell... do I just install TiBu from ADB shell and then it will have root access??
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
Hi,

Nothing to do with Tit backup, the su binary is there with the right permissions, at least for me, the zip flashes a system image, it's either there or not. Install Superuser from the market, if it prompts you to replace su, go ahead, doesn't matter.

Anyone else not getting root access after flashing this?

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Greenbelt:
This doesn't work for me. Superuser is installed.

Here is what I did (chronologically) after flashing gobstopper.

- tried gingerbreak

- tried the zip in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1140110&highlight=2.3.4+root

- tried installing superuser

- tried the zip in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1159572&highlight=root.zip

at this point, should I just re-flash gobstopper and try to re-install superuser?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
Hi,

Well, after installing those you might have an extra busybox in there. Too bad you don't know adb, If you did an ls -l /system/bin/su it should be rsxr-xr-x root root su with a non zero file size. You can install some terminal from the market and try that.

But yes, just to get rid of the stuff added by those other zips, you can redo the gobstopper.

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Greenbelt:
Re-flashed Gobstopper, installed superuser. TiBu is working now. The problem was user related.

Thanks!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] dascope:
I have a quick question re- Titanium Backup and the Market. This may or may not be related to this build but it's the first time I run into this... after restoring all my apps with Titanium Backup, a bunch of them are not showing up as 'Installed' in the "My apps" area of the market... Some are but not all. Still have quite a few showing as 'Purchased' instead of 'Installed', and other than reinstalling them via the market, I'm not sure how to properly update this list? I tried rebooting the phone, but it didn't help...

Anybody run into this before? Any help appreciated! Thank you!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
Hi,

I have read about some folks having issues with the new market. Maybe the problem will go away if you uninstall any market updates? Other than that I believe another solution was to edit build.prop to set it to a froyo firmware that you had before.

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ikaris12:
Installed this and my phone is running great! So much better battery life from Froyo.

Thanks again!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jayhammy:
NOt sure what's happening here, but here's the story:

1. I rooted and installed the new unlocked CWM recovery. All went well.

2. Flashed this Bell 2.3.4 via the CWM. All installed well. No errors.

3. Cannot connect via wifi to set up phone. Keeps disconnecting. It sees my network but doesn't connect. Can't get past this point.

Please help!

Thanks.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
Hi,

Kinda confused about the fact that your profile says Verizon, you are in NY, yet your sig says Bell. If you can't sign into motoblur when setting up, wait a few minutes and see if it picks up your data connection, if it doesn't it's probably due to this being a Bell firmware with a Canada centric apn list.

No wifi problems here, I can connect to 2.4 and 5 just fine. I believe there are some wifi fixes in the international ram fix thread, you can try that, or try a different radio.

Anyone else having wifi problems?

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] IrshaadH:
Can I install one of the 1% battery themes since this ROM is deodexed?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
Hi,

You can try it, but keep a backup copy of /system/app/SystemUI.apk, I fixed the date colour in that, if your battery mod changes that file, you'll have some dark purple on purple date text.

Hi. I just wanna let you know I fixed my mobile network issue. I had uninstalled JuiceDefender, but the settings that the JuiceDefender Widget has set (mobile network off) had remained so my mobile network wouldn't turn on.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
Hi,

I disable wifi all the time without problems, data turns on here. Using nighttime saver for data settings network selection is on auto if that makes a difference. Tried airplane mode, disabled that, no problem there either.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
Hi,

Did you do a factory reset? This cwm zip sets all your partitions except pds, cache, and your data partition. It's possible something in pds is affecting things, but I don't touch that with a 10 foot pole. Now, I haven't had any full sbfs on this phone, IHOP was it, just the boot and system from the ORFR gb, 2.2.2 bell, and 2.3.4 bell. All I can think of is that some sbf setup something for the radio it was using, and some part was stored in the pds partition.

That's assuming nothing simple on your end was missed. Happens.

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
Hi,

This isn't really the thread for how to unlock your phone, or sbf issues. But that 99% thing sounds like it was the waiting to reboot part, unless it said flashing cg whatever and it failed, you would have had more issues otherwise I'm thinking. Waiting for some time doesn't sound right, it's less than a min to install for me, or close to it.

Yeah, I'd try the pudding thread, since I don't know what is being done in the other one.

There is a thread in general for a one stop shop for unlocking if you wanted to try that.

It's pretty much like this: (from memory)

Download IHOP-Bell.zip, should have some file named intl-whatever-try1.sbf inside.

Install rsd-lite 5.3x, Install moto helper drivers from motorola's site, they are fine.

Put the phone into rsd mode, turn on with vol up pressed.

run rsd-lite select the int-xxxxx-try1.sbf file from the pudding thread.

hit start.

When it says it is rebooting it's done, no need to wait on the rsd lite side of things.

Now you have to use moto-fastboot oem unlock. (I used linux, using windows involves cgwin shell I believe, could be wrong, more involved at any rate it seems to me.)

it will give you instructions with a key code.

do the moto-fastboot oem unlock [key], whatever it says to do.

Phone should reboot and say unlocked. Think it does a data wipe as well.

From there moto-fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (tenfars)

moto-fastboot reboot, hold down the vol down button, click a few times to get android recovery showing, vol up.

Voila! That is the general gist of it, see the pudding thread for more details.

Cheers!

[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
Hi,

If I am not mistaken the bootstrap version of tenfar's recovery uses amend scripting, not edify, so it probably wouldn't work. But I never tested it.

I don't know why you would need to go back to 2.2.2, unless there is some magic being down by the bootloader and radio that gets flashed in that version, the pds partition wouldn't be updated there either. But I haven't had anything from France or Australia on this phone.

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] lexx210:
Just a tiny little question. I'm not familiar with Gingerbread, but in Froyo when you connected your phone to your computer the "USB debugging" entry could be seen in the notification bar, but it's not there anymore. (Yes I have it enabled :) )
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:

if i was you i would probably sbf to french sbf again just to be sure the other init-try sbf didnt screw things up....or if it actually worked maybe you could just fastboot and try unlocking it and then just installing cwm and updating to 2.3.4 directly... anyway

lets say you dont unlock it heres what I did... which takes time and patience

How can I apply the kernel from this version into my French rom?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Zero-K:
I had the same thing happen to me when I restored from Titanium

It used to happen on my Galaxy all the time when I would flash a new build. I read lots of things on how to fix, but none ever seemed to work.

Not going to say this will work for you, but I find it helps.

First thing, make sure you clear your market cache, then scroll through the free apps/games and look for any you have installed that have an update, update that one app/game, reboot the phone, generally it will refresh the app list after that.

Of course doesn't help you much if there's no updates.

If you just wait a couple days, it usually refreshes the list on it's own.

I installed yesterday. So far only one random reboot. It happened when I was using skype. The phone actually went into a bootloop until I did a battery pull.

I did IHOP, then to French 2.3.4, then straight to this. No real problems to speak of. At first I tried to install from the external SD, which failed. I reread the first few posts and realized I should have done it from the interenal SD.

I have no problems with webtop at all, works beautifully.

Thanks for the great ROM.

I haven't used webtop in a while, nice to have but I don't stand in front of TV very often using my phone as a mouse. :) I guess a laptop dock would make it more appealing.

I am currently wondering if dlna is a dead duck. Seems more complex rather than less.

If there are problems it's understandable as a unfinished firmware.

I'm in Australia with a Bell Atrix, I had been using the stock 2.2 since I got it until last night when I unlocked and flashed this.

I'm not getting any 3g data connection to work however, I'm using the same APN (Telstra) settings that I was using on 2.2 which were working.

I do need 850mhz 3g to be able to get a 3g connection but Bell users in Canada need this also correct ? So it's not as if this radio doesn't have it ?

Wifi works fine and I can still make/receive calls ok.

Edit: Elxir reports that data state = currently setting up a data connection then after 2-3 minutes it changes to disconnected. Same thing occurs trying to force 2g data connection, I tried some other Radios and the same thing is still happening.
