Did you read the "bug report"? He called him an idiot! People need to realize that the devs are working for FREE! This is prebeta (aka alpha) software and should not be flashed by anyone that is a newbie. They don't have to and should not waste their time explaining to people the differences to figure these things out.

The atrix is my first android phone and this alpha is my first experience with CM. When I first flashed the alpha build (long before it was available) I noticed the difference in the way the sdcards were mounted. I didn't go off on the devs and call them idiots. I didn't waste their time with my question. Instead I noticed that both storage mediums were detected and mounted, just named differently. So I researched it and found out it was the norm for CM. What's my point? It's that a disclaimer is not needed and if you can't take the initiative to figure these minute details on your own then you sure as hell should not be flashing an alpha build.

I agree 100%. I can't recall how many bug reports of the same issue were reported and people were told it's normal.

The android "hacking" world has become such a long way since I started. Some good,some bad. The bad is that at xda,every one has to watch what they say. Its simple,if you disagree with a person's post,then don't respond. If you do,well then its gonna be nothing more than a flame fest,and when newbs come to actually read,they will have to filter through pages of crap,and ends in confusion. Then that newb who couldn't find what they wanted due to pages of nonsense will ask a question,and it starts all over again. Then,turning the thread into nothing other than something to laugh at. On the other hand,its sad to see that like 70% of the community here can't,or won't read. The answers to almost everything is rite before you,and you who signed up for the forum,accepted the responsibility to read before posting,and doing research because this isn't a place to be spoonfed. Rite now,I am doing what I disagree with,which is posting a post that has nothing to do with the OP,but I hate that xda has come to this. As you can see,alot of the devs have gone to different forums,and that just sucks. Read a post,answer the question,or move on. If someone post a question over and over,or someone ask a question that was just answered, then politely tell them to read back a few pages. This is the internet,and your not gonna stop someone from posting whatever they want. As far as bashing a dev because your to lazy to do some research,well that is just crazy. The devs build the roms and kernals,and we choose to be users. Once we flash whatever ,it is on us to do our best to work out our problems first. And if you can't,but your problem is something already gone over,then you didn't try hard enough, or read enough. Anyways,I'm done rambling. The mods with there "iron fist" will start putting people in check. Have a great day all,God bless
[Atrix 4G General] Phalanx7621:
Im not gonna quote him, cause that was a seriously long post, but wow. Sorry but I agree with him. I love this community. Let's all remember why we're here right? Cause we love stickin it to the man! And the devs and mods and great people involved with these projects help us do that, and we are their guinea pigs. Which I am totally down with. I love it here, let's have a good time.
[Atrix 4G General] KeRmiT80:
sorry i don't have arguments to enter in the discussion of who has the biggest ****, here i'm a student everything is new :)

it's possible to point the /mnt/emmc to "sdcard-ext" like /mnt/sdcard to "sdcard"?

if yes how?

ps: the only thing i can say is that i come far ago from the polaris wm6 thru milestone subforums, here there is a lot of anger...peace guys :D
[Atrix 4G General] Phoneguy589:
I started this thread cuz the prebeta 1 thread had pages of info that on;y dealt with most of the issues from 1. I was getting flamed left and right. I hate when someone tells me to search and I spend 30 minutes reading about peoples likes and dislikes, opinions and feelings. An occassional joke is funny but if you don't have a question or a fix.....go post somewhere else. I wish I had more knowledge but all I had to do is jailbreak a phone and I was done. Now I sit with 6 or 7 ROMs in front me...ok which one do I want to try now...I've spent 2 hours trying to decide, and I've had them all at least once. LOL
[Atrix 4G General] LightSwitchTTM:
Would you install this ROM just like any other, or is there certain conditions that needed to be met? I remember seeing something (not on this site) where someone reportedly flashed it regularly and it failed, and he was told to flash it a different way and it worked.

Just curious, I may or may not install it seeing as I'm new to Android in general.
[Atrix 4G General] Alcapone263:
you MUST have Romracer's CWM recovery, and then it installs like any other ROM. clear data/cache/dalvik, flash, then clear cache/dalvik again.
[Atrix 4G General] jimmer411:
I flashed it flawlessly using tenfars CWM recovery. Im lazy and havent updated CWM since the bootloader was first unlocked.
[Atrix 4G General] Jean-DrEaD:
That's SS is on Kernel 0.1.4... Beta2 is on 0.1.6 ;)
[Atrix 4G General] live4nyy:
I think people spend way too much time worrying about "exactly" how much RAM they have. Gingerbread works absolutely fine on 512mb of RAM and pretty much anything over that is gravy. The difference between 816 and 879 probably just means you won't have a couple more apps running in the background which I think most people would never realize. The stock ROM, for some people, was less than 700 so to be over 800 is actually pretty awesome.
[Atrix 4G General] MacAlert:
I went ahead and installed Beta 2 however my home button no longer works. Any ideas?
[Atrix 4G General] martyman19828:
Bad install. Wipe and reinstall.
[Atrix 4G General] DeathKoil:
I've fixed my home button not working by doing a factory reset from within the OS.

That was Gingerbread (stock) though, not CM7. Might save you a step or two in getting it back up and running though.

Tip on ADW launcher for smoother animations: Settings>ADW>Drawer Settings>Background color>Slide Alpha to #00000000 and press in the middle to set color.
[Atrix 4G General] neer2005:
Or just use go launcher xD
[Atrix 4G General] dereknas:
Still no luck. It just shows installation unsucessfull. Could it be due to restoring from nandroid?
[Atrix 4G General] Phoneguy589:
Not sure what it supports... I was up until 4 a.m. and downloading every camera app to see what worked and didn't. Angel so far worked when reopening and also saved to my gallery.
[Atrix 4G General] lesterp:
Angel Camera does work but only at its 'normal' mode which is 800x448. It also chews up battery, but at least it doesn't fc.
[Atrix 4G General] edgeicator:
Not sure why you posted that apk, but it is under NDA by the dev. It should not have been shared at all.

Clockworkmod just tweeted, looks like koush got the official cwm working with the atrix now. Not sure if he finished the port or maybe made changes to use romracer's port.
[Atrix 4G General] beatphreek:
That's good news... he's been busy with his DeskSMS product (which quit working for me, but that's a story for another forum).... Glad he got that in there, because it made me flash the broken one the other day when I installed it fresh.
[Atrix 4G General] AnalogXDA:
Mainly because it's just kind of a frustrating experience for users, given that the vast, vast majority of market apps these days don't seem to be configurable to use /mnt/emmc for their normal storage. What this means in practical terms is that if you use Cyanogenmod in 2011 you are almost forced to use your external storage for app data (when of course it makes much more sense to use internal storage for that)...and that one of the only things you can really use your internal storage for is media (when of course it makes much more sense to use external storage for that). Obviously that's a simplification, but I'm sure you get the point.

And the fact that none of this is in any way the fault of samcripp et al, nor in any way fixable by them, doesn't make it any less a problem. Moreover, although it's certainly true that people asking for a solution in *this thread* are barking up the wrong tree, it is also true once again that you guys complaining about the complainers are literally of no more use to anybody than the complainers themselves.

I don't know whether samcripp is being fully serious when he suggests "complaining" to the main CM developers, but it's actually not such a terrible idea...let's face it, it's not really their fault either but it's sure a lot more likely to produce results than trying to get ten bazillion app developers to rewrite their stupid apps so that we can choose where they store and retrieve data....

Anybody having a hard time reverting back to their NANDROID backup after installing PreBeta #2? Giving me a MD5 mistmatch here... I did update CWM recovery (romracer) from -atrix2 to -atrix3.2 ... but that shouldn't affect it right? Also trying to go to Bell 2.3.4 and that isn't working either. Have to reflash PreBeta2 to have a 'functional' phone until I figure this out... any help appreciated! Thanks!
[Atrix 4G General] Phalanx7621:
Nope, no problems at all going back and forth between 2-3 different backed up ROMS. I have CM7, Stock 2.3.4 and Dorian's Red Pill v3 all backed up and can switch between all 3 with ease. However, all 3 of those ROMS were fresh installs, everythng wiped before all 3 of them so no chance of conflicting data. This seems to be the NUMBER one problem with people flashing ROMS. They only do a factory reset and wipe cache and forget all the other important parts. Gotat wipe it allllll out ;)

Edit: Oh yeh, and I'm using Rom Racer version 3.1 .
[Atrix 4G General] Phoneguy589:
Do you ever format your internal/external memory? Thought about it but nervous about messing something up. I think I need to copy my PDS to my desktop.

Anyone try copying blur.camera.apk or any blur components to CM7?

Battery drain issu for me

Today, i have tested a theorie about the battery drain.

Drain is about 8-10% per hour in suspend mode, and more if Atrix is in use.

Nothing change this : juicedefender, task killer and other apps.

For information :

100% is 4200 mv battery

0% is 3400 mv battery

between : 100 step (8mv by step)

So, i use CM7, and for GB too, same battery drain.

2 Kernels don't change this (faux per exampl of course)

Recently i have tested "Battery left widget", a market app.

When i go in "Summary" and "History" and "Sensor usage" option, i see this :

Sensor is activ "all the time" since last "plug on wall".

Sensor is in use by "Android System"

I have test this :

Charge 100% (and calibrated with CMW wipe battery or "BatteryCallibration" app before),

unplug

, and

REBOOT

.

This manual reboot stop "Sensor" activated by recharg.

After this simple action, battery drain has disapeer, and "sensor" activity too

Battery drain is the same than Froyo, 1 day in suspend mode, 1 hour game, 1 hour web and 15% battery left. It's magic !

I think, System detect the wall plug, and activ "something" in system nether desactivated after unplug.

Reboot is the only way to stop this sensor, and baterry drain.

I thing a system app in froyo, nammed like this "motorola.com.bat....." stop the "android system sensor" usage, automaticaly.

So, anybody can confirm or just me ?
[Atrix 4G General] mc-paulo:
I remember having the same sort of bug with the Droid/Milestone. A battery drain was occuring when you disconnected your phone from the charger with turned off display.

Problem on Milestone never got rrally fixed...

[Atrix 4G General] Phalanx7621:
Yeh I format my internal SD card every time I flash a new ROM. I have everything set to back up to my external SD card so my internal stuff is pretty much not used, and can be wiped to make sure there is no lingering data. I never wipe my external SD card, but I make sure there is nothing saved that will conflict with a new ROM be4 flashing one.
[Atrix 4G General] ScottRTL:
I have been trying to stop the drain issue... So are you saying, after a charge, reboot the phone and there will be no issue? Or do we need to freeze a specific process with TiB?
[Atrix 4G General] SS2006:
ya there is, PM me

i think this is by far the stupidest thing in CM7, renders our 16gb absolutely useless for anything
[Atrix 4G General] delewer:
ScottRTL :

No just unplug, and reboot immediatly. No freeze need.

With WIFI, about 24 h

Without wifi, about 40h

like froyo in fact

I don't know what "Android system" sensor is.

May be gyroscope or light detector ?
[Atrix 4G General] SS2006:
so after EVERY 100% charge your suggesting to callibrate with the app, then unplug and reboot

or do u drop the callibrate part after the first time

[Atrix 4G General] PakaPakaxz:
Little question for all the users .. should i install this rom for daily use ?

Its stable enough ?
[Atrix 4G General] drumercalzone09:
I only did it once, and I've had no calibration/jumping issues.
[Atrix 4G General] JaronBang:
I installed the rom 2 days ago, definitely stable enough. I'd stick with the kernel that comes with cm7(I think its faux's 1.6) no camera and no finger print scanner. Camera is the only thing I miss but there are alternative camera apps that work just fine, fingerprint scanner worked intermediary for me anyway. So it doesn't bother me, quadrant scores ranging from 3300-3800. Battery life has been excellent, I flashed faux's 1.7 for cm7 and actually averaged worse scores on quadrant, and poor battery performance so I went back to 1.6

I am on an AT&T device.

Same here. I held out on CM7 as long as I could but the lack of camera/video support was killing me. If you can live without that and the fingerprint scanner then yes, best rom available. I'm using the next best thing, Alien 4 with the aosp theme, adw pro and CM7 wallpaper pack :)

I can't stress this enough. If people aren't wiping properly before installing a rom / theme, its not the devs fault u have a bunch of troubles. The build is fine, if u do a complete wipe before installing. Just like every rom. This means using fastboot to erase EVERYTHING. webtop, boot, user data, system, preinstall. Also, angel camera doesn't work all that well. So I just have a stock 2.3.4 that I use when I want to take pictures and video then recover back to cm7.
[Atrix 4G General] wintermute000:
not to sound like a n00b, but what about using the wipe data option from CWM (latest romracer)?

I've been lazy and just doing that for the last few flashes I've done (none on CM7 mind you, just going alien versions) and not run into any issues so far
[Atrix 4G General] CancerJesus:
I've never had a problem when I wipe the Cache, Data and Dalvik from CWM, but if that still gives people issues fastboot wiping everything should fix it.
