This has propably been discussed previously, but i just flashed

Version #2 Base 1.2: Stock OC 4.5.91 w/ Blur - Faux's Kernel v0.2.0 (1.0ghz Enhanced Stock) (Safe for International users)

and everything seems to be working fine, except every time i reboot my phone, all my widgets disappear.

Any ideas on what is causing it and how to fix?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
I think you are misunderstanding me. What I mean is--when you go the main page (OP) and scroll down to the ROMS section, there are 3 ROMS to flash, then the Orange ROM, then a little farther below is the Blue Chronic ROM. It explains what's in the ROM, that it is extensively deblurred, and what the kernel is that it's built with. Below this description, there is a link to download the ROM. That link takes you to the Blue Chronic UPDATE. Not the ROM itself. There is no download for the ROM. If you scroll further down to the updates section, there is a section specifically for Blue Chronic updates, and there is no link anywhere in that section to download the update. So we are missing the download for the ROM itself is my point. Not that it's a big deal, I already have it on my phone, just for people who want to flash it brand new.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nitrox1:
Consensus is: boot into recovery, wipe cache, perform fix permissions, boot.

Or fix permissions in rom manager.

Or push launcher to system/app (couple of pages previous) ( I haven't tried yet)

Or like me none of that works and keep using quickboot, to restart your phone, like I do :(

NO LINK to ROM

Yes...this is accurate, the link to the ROM is missing. The link for the ROM takes you to the link to D/L the update. I'd like to try this ROM out, hope the link is back soon. Can you confirm if the Laptop Dock will work on this ROM? That's a requirement for me. Just purchased a LapDock and want to continue using it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ZeroIsntTheHero:
Make sure you install the base, boot up the rom, go back to recovery and then apply the update.

Don't just flash the base and update at once and then boot.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nelsonw:
so, since the Main ROM of Blue Chronic is missing, I assume that we can flash the Version RC1 4.0 #5 before and then install 6.0 update? That's Right? or wait for a new Base? Thanks!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] budh99:
Does anyone have the link for the full Blue Chronic ROM?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kufel:
I downloaded the update that is linked to from the full download. Installed over 5.3A No problem. About shows version 6
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Notorious544d:
Does HostBlocking apply to website ads and ads in apps?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] budh99:
So install 3.4, update to 5.3A, then 6.0 ????? Or is 4.0 RC available somewhere?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] supermerkin:
So if Im understanding correctly, I download and flash the file under the full blue cronic link over the 5.0 rom I flashed yesterday morning? Should I wipe anything first?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] naset:
please read carefully...6.0 only for Blue Chronic...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] budh99:
Yeah, that is why I was asking about the link to: Version #5 Mega Base RC1 4.0: OC 4.5.9.1 DeBlurred.

But then, the other post looked like you could update to 6.0. I will wait for the full Version, when it becomes available again.

Hi!

I was using HB 4.0 Blue-Chronic and 5.6update. It cause FC on music app. Don't have option to synchronize gmail and display contacts.

now i'm installing HB 4.0 and will try 5.2c Update

Edit: Music App always FC.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
Well, I haven't experienced any problem with the Music app, then again I think that's why he put a non-stock Music app in. Second, of course there is no option to sync google account stuff. He took out the Accounts. You have to create a link using Launcher Pro. It has the ability to create a shortcut to the accounts settings box, where you can choose what you want to sync. Just go to the OP and the info is on that page.

edit: Oh yeh, I wanted to add that I was having problems with the battery charging status. For example, if I would let the battery die, and plug it in, it would start charging normally. Then if I booted the phone up it would change to like 70% charged after a few minutes, which was obviously not correct. So I turned it off, let it charge to 100%, and followed the steps in the battery callibration post. I pulled the battery while it was turned off and fully charged, left it out for 30 seconds, then put it back in. Then let it charge for another hour. Then turned the phone on, and downloaded a battery callibration app and wiped battery stats. However, as of this post, battery still isn't showing correct battery stats. For example, I rebooted my phone at 94% battery charge and now it's back up to 99%.

no changes to the base

and im going to be busy tonight so probably no flash in the morning :(
[Atrix 4G Android Development] neotekz:
i just noticed i have some battery problems too. my battery was showing 85% then i reboot and now it shows 99%. if this is the same problem that kenn was having with his release of GB then calibration is not the solution and will not work. i remember there was eventually a fix that was release. i will try it to see if it works.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
Yeh there's a fix by jug. It's a battery jumping fix. Would flashing this do anything / screw anything up? I know Sean added some bat lib files from CM7 or somewhere else ...not sure if it'd be all right to flash or not. But here's the battery jumping fix if you wanna flash it with CWM. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/36930972/CMW_Jug6_FIXv2.zip

I just flashed HomeBase Blue Chronic, and then flashed the theme, and it looks nothing like the "themed screen shot" in the OP.

I have a shortcut to Messaging,a nd to Applications in my dock... and that's it... Did I do something incorrectly? Or is that dock a different launcher?

Any suggestions?

By the way seanz, just wanted to say this orange rom is horrible, I hate not having any dropped connections, I hate that it's smooth and scrolls very well.

Everything works which is just rubbish.

My speed test score beat other phones, so I can't be second best any more.

And worst of all I ended my day with 30% more battery than I usually have.

Man you've got a long way to go on this rom, you should put in more hours, and stop thinking about yourself so much.

Thank for everything :p

I just noticed sd-ext doesn't exist... it's /mnt/sdcard-ext (any reason why?)

If I:

rename the folder to sd-ext

modify /etc/vold.fstab to reflect the changes

reboot

factory wipe

flash mega #5

reboot

sd-ext should contain the extras included in the base or am I missing something?

So there is no more ext3 and ext4 rom segregation. Did I miss anything here?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Diviance:
The rom conversion script he was using wasn't actually doing anything, faux fakes ext4 by mounting ext3 as ext4 for a minor performance increase. His roms didn't have ext4, so why bother segregating?

Fugu is easy.. ext4

Is pointless for me . Bc I simply dont have time to trouble shoot it

Sorry

heres what I posted earlier

Rom racer is implementing.ext4 conversion into the next cwm

he said it was on the to do list

And it would allow.simple backwards compatibility

Until then maybe div will release a converter .. So you can use it on all,roms

My few trials with it burned me and I lost everything on my internal sd card.

Fauxs fake ext was misleading but its all good dude makes bad ass kernels
[Atrix 4G Android Development] fattymcdirty:
you rom somehow doesn't feel snappy on my atrix... i've tried homebase 1.1 with the 1.3 update and the latest 5a update... only getting quadrant scores of 2500 points... it hangs kinda forever in the database writes section 2/4 and the 2d and 3d performance fps is HALF that fast, than my optimus 2x - how can that be? i assumed the atrix would be as fast as the 2x or even faster with it's 1gb ram.... what'S the problem here?!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] seanzscreams:
your not on an overclocked kernel from the looks of it

flash fauxs 1.3 ghz kernel
[Atrix 4G Android Development] :
The extra memory is only beneficial if it is being used, I always have anywhere from 250-380mb of memory free. I increased my Dalvik heapsize from 64mb to 96mb which made things run a little smoother. As for benchmarks, they're synthetic, they don't reflect real world performance well though 2500 still seems low if your running the 1.3 GHz OC kernel. If your running the Enhanced Stock Kernel then that's about right.

Very excited. In what order do I flash: Base, Update, theme, finalizer, ext4 converter?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] seanzscreams:
Its a full wipe

Do first

Or back up then coverT then restore ..

Maybe its placebo but it.seems very snappy
[Atrix 4G Android Development] naset:
What do u mean do first?flash ext4 first and then flash base?

If im from aura rom,do I need to flash ext4 script too as aura already ext4?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
I'm confused by this as well. Do you mean we have to flash the base, then flash the converter, then reboot? Or should we flash the converter, flash the base, then reboot?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
I think converter must be flashed first. He says you can backup then convert and then restore.

Sent using my Home Base Atrix 4G.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Vangelis13:
I've gone ahead & flashed the converter first and then the base (the base install says at some stage that it converts to ext4, which in my set up is already converted) after a fastboot wipe and am now waiting to flash the updates + theme + Finalizer. Learn by fckng up if it doesn't work.. :-)

Edit: English 3rd language.. First Fastboot wipe -> converter -> Homebase.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
OK, just downloaded the lastest Blue Chronic update and the EXT-4 converter. Did a fastboot wipe, flashed the converter, and now flashing the blue chronic ROM. Can anyone confirm any kinda difference? Faster? More responsive? Back massages?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
Converting to EXT4 and then restoring a previously EXT3 ROM will keep it EXT4? Sorry, I'm not too versed on filesystems.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Vangelis13:
Ok, I've seriously messed it up this time.. I think I partitioned the internal drive by accident or whatever it was I pressed while thinking I knew what I was pressing (sunlight on the screen..) , Now at boot it says

"PwrReason: SW_AP_Reset

No OS detected"

and it gives me the options to choose everything from RSD to BP Tools. I try to choose Android Recovery & it gives Magic Value Mismatch: Reading ODM fuse: 1

WTF have I done..?!?!:eek:
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
oh wow. I would choose fastboot, plug yer phone in, and do a fastboot wipe of everything. Then when yer done, flash a new recovery ( I would suggest RomRacers) see if that does anything. I use moto-fastboot to flash recoveries myself.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
Alllrighty. I'm on the Chronic base. So I fastboot wiped, flashed the converter, flashed the base, and let it boot up. Waited a few minutes, rebooted into recovery and flashed the update and let it boot up. Waited a few minutes, did some messing around, then rebooted into fastboot, wiped my kernel, and booted into recovery and flashed the enhanced stock kernel. Will report back, but so far the EXT-4 conversion seems to have taken. Things are very snappy.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
Anyone notice weird battery reporting issues after converting to ext4?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Notorious544d:

---------- Post added at 03:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:51 PM ----------

Do a Quadrant Advanced or AnTuTu benchamark and check the I/O score. It 'should' be higher.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
I did some tests when everything was done setting up, before I flashed the enhanced stock kernel, and the scores were a bit higher than they were before the EXT-4 conversion but not by a lot. The phone is noticeably snappier tho so I'm thankful for that. Test scores don't mean a huge amount to me as long as my battery life is great (which it is on this ROM + enhanced stock kernel) and I have functionality. I'm super happy I don't think I've ever been this excited about a ROM + kernel combo. Well maybe when the first CM7 prebeta came out and I was getting 6100 antutu benchmark scores, pooing all over the competition lolz.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Notorious544d:
Quadrant benchmarks are MUCH lower with Ext4 then without. I used to get over 4,000, now I'm getting ~3,700. Why? This happened with Aura's Rom as well but Diviance said that he was getting 4,600!!

I'm going to try freezing a lot of system apps and UV my phone. Then I'll try it again along with other benchmarking apps.

HOWEVER, I think it's fair to day that there does seem to be a smoother performance with Ext4. Scrolling is super smooth and many lag spikes have gone which is great news.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] lilhaiti:
For clarification, can the EXT4 converter be used with a Nandroid backup? For instance can I wipe everything, run the converter then do a Nandroid restore to get EXT4?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] eriktch:
Nonono. You do a backup, then flash the converter(which will wipe), then restore
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
Yeh on a previous post Sean said that'd work.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] polaris441:
So does it means I can get Alien4 to port on ext4 partition (provided I update to faux latest kernel prior to reboot)?

i.e.

1. Full wipe (data/cache/dalvik)

2. Flash converter

3. Flash Alien rom

Edit: When I flash Alien4 rom, it will format the system & data partition again. I guess I will convert it back to ext3 fs.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Notorious544d:
WRONG!!!!!!!

You HAVE to flash converter first. THEN Rom. I don't know whether it'll work for Alien.

Hmm yeh I dunno man. Did you try it and let it boot up into the system and then see what it says with the terminal window? Whether it's showing ext-4 or ext-3?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] lilhaiti:
Just wanted to clarify because he just said backup which could mean titanium or nandroid. But thanks for clearing that up...bout to dive in
[Atrix 4G Android Development] polaris441:
Yes. My steps that I shown above is apply converter 1st then flash the rom.

What is the command to check the file system.

fdisk -l?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] magecca:
Why

adb shell
mount

/dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system ext4 ro,noatime,nodiratime,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0
/dev/block/mmcblk0p16 /data ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,nodiratime,barrier=1,data=ordered,noauto_da_alloc 0 0
/dev/block/mmcblk0p15 /cache ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,nodiratime,barrier=1,data=ordered,noauto_da_alloc 0 0

/dev/block/mmcblk0p17 /preinstall ext3 ro,noatime,nodiratime,data=ordered 0 0

Is that correct?

I installed homeBase #1 and then installed Faux's 0.2.0 Stock Enhanced kernel, I did not run an EXT4 conversion
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
You might have to first install Alien. Make a nandroid of Alien. Wipe/fastboot wipe. Apply ext4 converter. Restore Alien. That's what I did with HomeBase. I'm not sure if you can ext4 and THEN install a NEW Alien. Might have to be from a restore which doesn't format the filesystem.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] polaris441:
I already flashed Alien.

The "mount" command shows that my system & data partition is fs ext4 type.

You could be right. I should make Alien in nandroid backup first so that it will not format the partition again.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Diviance:
Just going to point out that when you use that ext4 converter before flashing a rom you are actually ending up doing nothing in the long run. When you flash the rom, the rom reformats back to ext3. I have not released the non-wipe version of it yet, that wipe version is supposed to be for rom developers to include in their roms.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] GTTG_Atomik:
Figured that was the case. Doh! Full wipe for nothing haha. Div, keep us posted if you release a non-wipe version. Thanks to all the devs for their time and hard work!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Notorious544d:
Wow, placebo effect is really interesting lol. If it wasn't using Ext4 then that basically means that Sean did a very good job in his updates. It is much smoother and faster than before.

The fact that it still doesn't have Ext4 means that it's got even MORE potential! Maybe finally we can hit that 7k barrier in CF Bench ;)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] lilhaiti:
Did the following steps:

1. wipe everything

2. Flash converter

3. restore my last Nandroid backup

4. reboot

Everything is running smooth so far...although I do not see any differences. It runs as smooth as it did before, mount shows the same info. Is there any other way to confirm?

---------- Post added at 04:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:00 PM ----------

Is this true for Nandroid restores as well? Does the Nandroid recovery reformat your partitions or does it just copy the files over?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Diviance:
If the mount info is the same, it is true for Nandroid as well.
