[Acer Iconia A500] dincdoes.me:
I'm running civs latest rom coming from thor 12 I can't find a nice button theme or ui theme.. I wish I could use thor cuz of theme support and how stable it is..

Anyone know of ui or button theme that work well with civs roms?

Thanks again for your help
[Acer Iconia A500] WarbyD:
So ... why cant you use thor?
[Acer Iconia A500] :
If you're going to be using your tab for any length of time, don't you think you should learn how to make your own button themes at the very least. You have the best resources (XDA) at your fingertips (literally). Learn to use the search function.

Then you won't have to whine about not having any.

Themed buttons take all of ten minutes to make....at the most! ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] dincdoes.me:
Wow man what is your deal for the last couple of post I've done you have been a jerk! I understand you may have a better skill set then me, but doesnt mean you can just put ppl down I do not know how to make my own themes and with a new baby its hard to just read n search all the time so yea I'm gonna ask some questions! Don't think I haven't seen your work, I do like what you have done in our forums all your input has helped me & others but being rude to ppl F.Y.I. doesn't make you look so sweet. Plus ppl like you make it hard cuz no one want to be ridiculed for asking a question.

And to the other poster I have finally got Thor to work with everything for somereason my tab won't play Gameloft apk files unless they send me new one that was the reason for me not using thors rom in the 1st place
[Acer Iconia A500] :
intent and perception.

If you perceived my post to be rude, that is YOUR perception, not my intent. I may be blunt, but my post was true. I see all your posts, most of which could be fixed merely by reading, and then doing, instead of whining. It's not a "skill set", once again, it's "reading and doing". For the time it's taken you to post all of your "whining" (when you have a new baby) you could have had it figured out by simply reading other posts.

If you perceive my posts as being anything but helpful, look within instead of whining yet again. ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] dincdoes.me:
OK point taken and I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. Sometimes this tab frustrates me lol I didn't mean to take it out on ya man.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Legato Bluesummers:
Just a tip for people who want to make Nandroid back ups in shorter time. Learned this from Solarnz awhile ago on my xoom. If you get the Bionic Bootstrap app and then flash CWM from Rom Manager, place a file in your Clockworkmod folder the titled ".hidenandroidprogress" without the quotes. It is like a .nomedia file, just blank. But it stops CWM from display all the progress status and listing every file it backs up. This shaves MINUTES off a back up. Like serious time. It takes the phone far longer to list all the files then it does to actually back them up.

Not sure if this is well known, but i never knew it til i got my xoom. Using just the Bootstrap recovery app this trick didn't work. But once i flashed CWM through Rom Manager, it works fine. Just did a full back up in like 3-4 minutes. Takes 10 usually without the .hidenandroidprogress file.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
Awesome. Will be doing this now. Thanks!

Just curious - we have two clockwork folders, one on sdcard, one on sdcard-ext. Should we be putting them in both? Or does it matter? Just to be safe I put one in both folders.

---------- Post added at 03:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:04 AM ----------

Hmmm. Flashed recovery again through CWM, added these folders, and I'm still seeing the progress while making a backup. I created a new folder and named it exactly like this:

.hideandroidprogress

Did I do something wrong?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Legato Bluesummers:
put it to where clockword is writing your backups. And dont make a Folder. Make a File. Like you would a .nomedia file. Just copy one of those over to the Clockworkmod Folder where you right your backups. Then rename the .nomedia file to .hidenandroidprogress
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
Gotcha. Never made a no media file but I'm sure I can figure it out. Thanks for the prompt response. Anything to speed up these backups. Does it work for restore as well? That's the absolute worst...

Edit: successfully added the file. Thanks.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Legato Bluesummers:
Oh, um. Just look in some apps folders on your SD card, one of them is going to have a .nomedia file. Cause they will want to hide their cached pics and data from the system scanner. If you can't find one, then just create a new TXT document on your windows desktop, rename it to .hidenandroidprogress

Not sure if it works on restores, but i assume it would. I have *knocks on wood* never needed to do a CWM restore. It hides all Nandroid associated progress. You just get the main steps (backing up system, data, sd ext, md5sum), no actual progress listing on anything
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
I just went into more settings in CWM and selected new file. Boom.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] bendrum30:
hidenandroidprogress. You are missing the N in nandroid
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
Snap! Good spot kind sir.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Legato Bluesummers:
I made the same mistake when i first did it too. Yeah it is .hideNANDROIDprogress ... Not hideANDROIDprogress
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Underwater Mike:
Great tip, thanks. Didn't cut my time dramatically, but every bit helps. I will say that it's a bit unnerving to have the process sit there for a few minutes like it's hung up. But everything worked.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] lvm1275:
Wow, thanks! Now if i could just get a backup I finished to show up under restore, that would be great. Instead it just says no file found.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Underwater Mike:
Weird. You're backing up to "/mnt/sdcard-ext/clockworkmod/backup/", right?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Legato Bluesummers:
I have like ~230 some odd apps on my phone. 180ish on the tablet. It cuts down the time it takes the Data portion to backup drastically for me.

Yeah when you don't get much update notice it is kinda scary at first. But you will get used to it and the shortened backup times.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TeufelTexan:
Is this not the same feature available via the settings menu in RM? Or is that a premium feature?

I've been using it as described for quite some time via the "Quick Backup and Restore" setting below:
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
I can confirm this significantly improves restore time as well.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] tegtke:
Works great! Saves a lot of time. Thanks for this!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Legato Bluesummers:
Possibly. I've never used quick anything in rom manager. All ive ever done is normal backups and flash updates. I just know this trick worked on my xoom. So i tried it on my bionic and it worked too.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] lvm1275:
Yes I am. Still nothing. I've tried using rom manager and bionic bootstrap. I can go through the backup process and see the file but as soon as I reboot into recovery it just says no files found when going into restore.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] projektorboy:
This was a STUNNING fix. This did more than "slightly improve" my backup times. My Nandroids were taking about 15 minutes. Now it finished less than 5. This feature is going to be enabled permanently for me, moving forward.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nrage23:
I definitely sped up my Transfomer's Nandroid times.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeranon:
I am currently running the latest stable cm7 (Ba2tF), I found a program (quadrant) that gives me statistics about my phone.

What concerns me is it says I have 1 core. Is this the phone not utilizing resources? If so, is there a known method to force it to use it? Or is it possible the app doesn't register the second core for some reason?

Or is this something I messed up by being a relative n00b??View attachment 772122
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] youliang:
quadrant does not work well with dual core devices. use apps like cf-bench or antutu
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeranon:
Cheers! I'll check them out.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azurael:
Okay, let me make this clear, because it's not written in any FAQs I've seen, and it took me a while to work out: Android (at least on Tegra 2 devices) DISABLES CPU cores when they are not needed. Garbarge collection has been moved exclusively to core 0 so that core 1 can remain idle for extended periods and be disabled when not needed. Owing to the fact that looking up system information is not a particularly strenuous, multi-threaded task you will almost NEVER see the second core listed unless you've only just come from another task which was using loads of power and it hasn't yet got round to 'un-latching' the second core.

Look in your system log, you'll see it's full of messages about Core 1 being attatched/detatched.

My only issue is not understanding this behaviour but why the decision to implement it was made. I'm fairly certain it must have overheads and I'm also pretty sure NVidia stated that the CPU cores in Tegra 2 are not individually power gated - i.e. there should be no power saving benefit to doing this...?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolnow:
I reckon not having a second core running at 300-800mhz just to use the calculator/calendar would massively outweigh the "overheads" involved in enabling/disabling the 2nd core. I'm not sure about the individual power gates though :confused:

[Motorola Atrix 2] thekurrgan:
After the root procedure I don't seem to have any ability to use USB Mass storage.

Windows reports it as an empty drive, linux will show the device as connecting and assigns it a /dev/sdx device, but when you attempt to mount or fdisk, it reports no medium.

Any one else having similar issues?

I could always try a reset to factory defaults after unrooting, but I really don't see what rooting could have done.

I used the manual method and had to run zerg several times, however beyond that no other files where modified.

I've already reverted /data/local.prop to stock, no help.

Any one have any other insights?

I had to uninstall motohelper to get USB mass storage working.

[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
When you take a picture, does it save to your sdcard? Sounds completely unrelated huh? Well, this phone seems to have an issue with the sdcard randomly becoming read only. I have had that issue multiple times now and usually it's solved by restarting the phone. Well, I seen your issue today and didn't remember if I had tried to use it as mass storage since rooting it so I tried....no luck. Took a pic, it looked like it saved, didn't get any error, but could not find the pic in my gallery. Then I tried to take a screenshot and got the read only error. So I just took my sdcard out and made a copy of it to my pc, put it back in and rebooted my phone, it's all good now, imagine that. Needless to say, i'm backing up all my apps right now before doing anything else. Then gonna backup my contacts too.
[Motorola Atrix 2] thekurrgan:
motohelper... Sounds like a stock app...

did you just rm the apk?
[Motorola Atrix 2] mtnlion:
No.motohelper was a bs program that got installed to my PC when I downloaded and installed the driver pack from Motorola. Until

I uninstalled it I couldn't get USB mass storage to work.phone portal would,but not storage.

[Motorola Atrix 2] PhaseOfFact:
I had to reinstall all the drivers through motohelper to get it to work as well =/

[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
I was able to get my sdcard recognized again but still could not use it as mass storage device, never had a problem with this before root. Did factory reset and all is well.
[Motorola Atrix 2] koriflame:
There is no possible way root caused the issue at all. It stopped working for me once I installed moto drivers, but shows the device with mass storage under it in usb portal mode.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
Well then it's one hell of a coincidence! Before root, w/motodrivers, worked fine, after root w/motodrivers, didn't work, after unrooting, w/motordrivers, works again.

[Motorola Atrix 2] thekurrgan:
OK I give up. The problem is intermittent. I'm going to do a log cat next time cause I'm getting about irritated. SOme times it works fine some times not. I've not unrooted or changed anything since the initial problem.

The only thing I can possibly thing is that some of the commands installed by busybox is screwing up the works.

Short of that nothing REALLY changes that could affect the operation of the phone.

What doesn't bare that idea out however is the fact that it EVER works.

**STUMPED**
[Motorola Atrix 2] koriflame:
It does the exact same thing on a completely unmodified phone. Therefore, it's nothing you did to it that's cause the problem.
[Motorola Atrix 2] seraphielx:
I have the same thing on mine but it was something with the format of the card.

I flipped it to windows media sync mode then backed up the card and after the backup I unmounted the card and let the atrix format it.

I had the card in a atrix 1 before I put it in the atrix 2 so I do not know if this is the case or not.

This has now been working with out a problem for 4 days now
[Motorola Atrix 2] shanghei:
Same thing happened to my phone, I never rooted it.
[Motorola Atrix 2] seeker9:
Confirmed user error.

Thank you seraphielx! Shortly before finding this thead, I'd noticed that I had a rather large number of files in the LOST.DIR on my SDcard. Which coincided with the seemingly random disappearance of some of the apps I'd moved there. And when I pulled the SDcard to back it up on my PC, there were nearly 600mb worth of files in the LOST.DIR. Most of which were photos, plus (I think) some apps. Thank God I make regular backups!

I believe the problem, at least in my case, has to do with the fact that I could pull the SDcard without first pulling the battery; which I did when I swapped the stock 2gb card for my 32gb card right after I bought the phone. Thus corrupting many files, and probably the file system on the card as well.

After backing up what remained of my storage files, I tried to format the SDcard in the Atrix2, but It wouldn't let me select the option to format, and neither could I unmount the SDcard. So I powered down the phone, pulled the card and formatted it from my PC. Poped it back in the phone, powered up, and was then able to format it with the Atrix2. Since then I've had no issues with accessing usb mass storage, nor with disappearing apps and photos.

Thanx again for the assistance!
[Motorola Atrix 2] V@no:
For me sometimes it takes a few minutes before I can access sdcard from PC.

Usually it works instantly after phone reboot while not plugged in pc, then it takes ages...
[Motorola Atrix 2] seeker9:
Update: OK, I can't unmount my SDcard, again. Which, of course, means I can't access usb mass storage anymore. The only I've changes made since my last post were to install some apps and change some status bar icons via Rom Toolbox, and I can't believe that has anything with the issue.

If I do a factory reset, will I need to root again?
[Motorola Atrix 2] JRW 28:
If you have any apps installed on your SD card you will continue to have problems.
[Motorola Atrix 2] seeker9:
Yeah, I was thinking that might be the issue. I've formatted my SDcard again. Apps are only installed on internal storage now. I have usb mass storage access again. I'll leave the phone tweaking alone for a few days and see what happens.

Thank you.

Hey guys,

I rooted mine friday, and havent had any issues with mass storage yet. My card came out of my backflip (slow as anything btw) and I use my phone on both a PC at work, and my Macbook Pro at home.
[Motorola Atrix 2] cogeary:
As JRW 28 said, you can't have apps on the SD card.

Note that sometimes an app will be installed ON YOUR SD CARD, so every couple days or every time you install an app just go to "Manage Applications" and make sure that all of your apps are still on the internal storage.

I had the same problem of stuff disappearing until I moved all my apps to the internal storage.

After root and installing some ROMs I'm still not experiencing any problems.
[Motorola Atrix 2] mawg72:
I am having the same problem with getting my PC to connect in Mass Storage mode with my rooted Atrix2. However, something new popped up today. I connected my phone to my PC with a USB cable and didn't get the USB mode selection notification. It shows to be charging. Also kept getting popups in the taskbar on my PC saying I have new hardware installed. Can't remember all of the things it said, but one of them was "Motorola LTE Modem Driver" or something like that ans another was "ADB Device". Also, trying to open My Computer freezes my PC. And when I restarted PC with my phone connected, it caused windows to shutdown. Any ideas?
