If it's an hybrid, can I install over my CM7 nightly without any wipes?

Well, I tried myself and I confirm: you can install over the CM7 without any wipes (I just wiped cache)..

But you must install gapps again, even if you had it previously
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jackdonogy:
I had the same problem for the 1st 2 - 3 hours after installing the rom and flashing fauxs 1.45gz kernel. I then flashed clemsyn's kernel. But i was also syncing all my gmail folders and that took a while (over 2 hrs!).

During this period, i would put my phone in the freezer for a few mins for it to cool. After the sync, i restarted my phone and changed the batt (ive got multiple batts and the one i had at was at 100% when i started the flashing process went to 15% in about 3 hrs!)

Once i restarted the phone, it was fine and this morning no issues. batt is perfect and no heat issues.

PS: Man this rom is FAST! It transitions thru pages like no other. almost too fast, feels like its already flipped the page before ive had a chance to finish the swipe! loving it!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
never had a single heat problem.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Gutterball:
Yeah same here plus I use profiles and undervolting maybe people aren't doing that?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
Maybe their phones just can't handle this ROM. It doesn't' make sense though because if their phones can handle CM7, then it can handle RedPill. It really has nothing to do with the ROM at that point if you have no heat issues with CM7.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] stevehkim:
Are you guys setting profiles and undervolting right after the rom install? First thing i do is install setcpu and undervolt prior to setting the phone back up after a rom install. I dont think a rom can cause your phone to heat up. When you go back to the other rom are u restoring a nandroid backup? If so then your setcpu profile is already set up thus causing less heat when you switch back. Thats my opinion.

cm7 on steroids
[Atrix 4G Android Development] johnnyutah22:
Quick question, if I'm running cm7 weekly 3 then can't I just do a nandroid backup before the flash, then wipe everything, then flash redpill hybrid, then do an advanced restore of data only from my cm7 nandroid backup from cwm?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Gutterball:
Yeah and my phone is a dog! It can't handle anything! For instance I can't run any kernel except fauxs on it or its bootloop city for me but I have no problems with speed I can run 1.45 ghz kernel by faux no problem.Also Can't unvolt at drastic values like some other people can.

It's something in the tweaks in the other kernels that messes my phone up I think???
[Atrix 4G Android Development] MJPollard:
Try it and let us know. :) If you use CWM to make a nandroid backup and this flash-and-restore procedure fails, you can always restore your phone back to the way it was, thus you aren't really risking anything.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] johnnyutah22:
Restoring data now, I'll report back with my findings.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
Yes I always undervolt, it seems like I get worse heat issues when using Clems kernels. Faux's normally offer less heating up problems. But no matter which kernel I decide on with this ROM, it always ends up in heating issues. ( i have knowledge of fastboot, adb, wiping cache and all the commands necessary to be tinkering with my phone) I'll give an example. My "home" ROM, the one that works flawlessly for me and gives almost NO problems, is Homebase Blue Chronic. I can flip through menus, use tapatalk, post in threads, watch youtube vidoes, all that and it never gives me above 45 degrees celsius and that's like TOP temp. I use a 1.0 ghz kernel, with every ROM i flash. Because I don't care about test scores and I can undervolt that with more steps and more severe undervolting. However with this ROM if I would do the same, it tops out at like 52 or 53 degrees celsius, making the phone much hotter in the hand. This is without a case on the phone at the time. Alien also works well with the same undervolting settings and same scenario. Not sure what it is about this ROM but I would love to be able to use it. Seems stable. Good luck all, happy flashing.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Gutterball:
Caleant said the other day that as long as its not over 60 degrees c its not damaging to the phone. so according to him 53 would be fine.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
Oh it's not necessarily damaging to the phone. That wasn't the point of my post. It was to clarify that for some reason (and if you go back a few pages several people commented on heating issues with this ROM) there are strange heat issues that I haven't had with some other ROMS. Keep in mind i've flashed every ROM that is available for the Atrix and have used several different kernel combinations with each one. The post was simply to be informative. ;) However, whether damaging or not, it still sucks to hold a phone in yer hand at like 53 or 54 degrees as it makes the whole phone hot and obviously is not as pleasent to use.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Gutterball:
Oh yeah agreed. :D Ever leave a phone under a pillow or a blanket by accident? Talk about heating up!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] johnnyutah22:
Just an update for anyone who cares. I flashed the rom and restored data from cm7 weekly 3 nandroid backup. Looks like almost everything came back except for Pure Calendar widget which came back but would not function and I can't seem to get it to work at all. Also I'd like to know what launcher he's running on this thing as it is not adw. My only complaint is that you can't customize icons, the dock is limited to 3 buttons, and I don't know if scrollable widgets are supported. I guess I could run adw over the stock launcher. I'd like to know what others think of the launcher.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
why do you care what launcher he's using? just use the launcher you want to use. it's not hard to freeze the included Launcher app or remove it entirely...it sucks anyways just like you said. i think the launcher is just a AOSP stock launcher.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jackdonogy:
After a full day of using it i can say that my phone is definitely warmer than it was before. Ive flashed clemsyns kernel. Not hot by any means, but definitely warmer.

PS, where can i see what the temperature of my phone is (if its even possible...)?

thanks!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kix08:
Set CPU widget shows temp if you check the box when adding the widget to do so. Or go into set CPU and click the info tab and click CPU it will tell you your CPU temp. There are many other apps and Widgets to do so but I think most people will have set CPU on there device already any way.

CM7 Newest Weekly faux123 1.45ghz, thanks AtriXDA Developers!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] pederb:
Hello,

I followed the instructions to the point but it is stuck trying to boot up, all it shows is "Unlocked" and the Motorola logo? for over an hour now.

What to do?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
Well sometimes, and I know this sounds weird, I actually try and solve my own problems before posting a completely generic post that my phone wont boot up. Just saying,shot in the dark, but before posting ask yourself : have I tried everything I can to fix this problem on my own?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] pederb:
Well, yes that's why I'm posting. I know it's weird to post if you have a problem that you can't solve.

Cheers
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tonesy:
proberly a dumb suggestion but have u actually tried to do it again.

do a full wipe and reflash again... u never know
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jackdonogy:
Thanks! My phone is at around 38c. Is that a safe temp to be at?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Savant:
Yes it's good temperature to be at.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Savant:
Lmao gutterball sorry I know totally random post.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] pederb:
I just started that

Thxs
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tonesy:
just be sure to wipe delvik, wipe cache, format and flash rom. than wipe delvik and cache again.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] pederb:
Yes I did it all again but the same result, I'm afraid
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
are you using tenfar's CWM or romracer's...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] MJPollard:
Just FYI to those who were curious as to where the "hybrid" part came in, this was just posted by Dorian in response to my inquiry about that very subject:

So I'm thinking that the upcoming "gold" release could very well drop the "hybrid" and just be known as RedPill, or maybe RedPill-CM7, or whatever he ultimately decides to call it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
5 bucks says he's using Tenfars recovery instead of a newer recovery.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
Exactly. I have no idea why nobody mentioned it until I did. XDA is falling behind. All it led to was some sarcastic bickering. Noobs.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Savant:
Everyone is a noob at one point.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rponticelli:
Battery pull and reboot works if you haven't tried? Good luck.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] andyman_187:
try the ff (assuming it's MOBILE data ur having problems with):

1.) under mobile networks, change network mode to GSM/WCDMA auto or WCDMA preferred

2.) flash a different radio

3.) flash an enhanced kernel (clemsyns or fauxs 1ghz)

4.) turn on 3G/H+ then turn on airplane mode and turn it off again

5.) revert APN settings back to default, then configure it again

6.) pray to the CM7 gods....

Add buttons to launcher

Hi all,

On Dorian's Red Pill hybrid rom and loving it!

One question though, the launcher only has 3 buttons (call, app drawer, browser).

Is there a way to make it 5 buttons instead? How??

What is the launcher? Stock GB launcher?

Thank you!

DaScope
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
yeah it's AOSP stock GB launcher. I would just go ahead and grab another launcher like Go or my favorite Launcherpro
[Atrix 4G Android Development] MJPollard:
^This. Dorian stated that he's no longer including a third-party launcher in RedPill on account of the fact that any launcher he includes in the distribution would become outdated rather quickly due to frequent updates. (For example, older versions of RedPill came with GO Launcher Ex, which seems to get an update every other hour. :))
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
Seems like a cntrl-c and cntrl-v from somewhere else :P.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] MJPollard:
Means I'm smarter than the average bear to know how to avoid excess typing. :D
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Jay_Bee:
I am getting a "Mobile Data limit reached" error on Dorian's CM7 hybrid.

Found this fix:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1253963

I've never had this before with any CM7 versions. I'll try the editing as it seems to work but i'd rather a fix be implemented.

Great ROM BTW!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
I've heard of different people getting this error. I myself have never had it, but I'm curious exactly why it happens only for some people. I've read the fix and related threads, just curious as to the actual REASON behind why only some people are visited by the error. Good luck with fixing,and as always, happy flashing all.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] zyryck:
Wow... I didnt think it would be that good but it's by far the best rom I've ever tried on the Atrix. I've been switching almost every 2-3 days trying differents roms, going back and forth, tried the CM7 nightlies.. Some were really good but none were perfect.

With this one it's smooth as hell, battery doesn't seem to drain that much, NO random reboot (been experiencing this on quite a lot of the roms I tried), NO locking screens problems (same here, not that much annoying but makes the difference).

And the few modded icons are just great, well seriously, thank you for sharing this and making it discover to me !
[Atrix 4G Android Development] LivingChampion:
Does this come with Finger Printer scanner? Thanks.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] MJPollard:
Not yet. Dorian isn't going to add it until it's stable and working reliably.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bzmotoninja83:
I stand corrected.thankyou
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mandroid717:
i agree 100%. just waiting for him to implement the fp reader.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] djeuch:
I'm in a similar situation... I swear I've rebuilt my rom at least 6 times over the last 2-3 days, and this is my current daily driver.

What is the font that is in use? That is the absolute BEST display font I have ever seen on the phone!

Lack of fp is a bummer, but the one thing that will get me to switch off would be if one of the other roms gets the lapdock working. For $50, I couldn't pass it up, but it's a paperweight for the moment.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] MJPollard:
Segoe. Roboto was in the running, but it just wasn't doing it for him. :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
Segoe ui light to be exact.

Sent from my unlocked Motorola Atrix.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] MJPollard:
Thanks for the correction. We must strive for accuracy. :D Honestly, I never really saw what the big deal about Roboto was except for the fact that "it's from Ice Cream Sandwich!!1!1!!" To my untrained eye, it doesn't really look much different from Segoe UI Light, so I'm kinda glad Dorian didn't hop on the Roboto bandwagon.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mandroid717:
i just can not get over the smoothness of this rom. will you be creating one in combination with cm7 week 3 with the fp reader.

thx
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tonesy:
I believe Dorian said something along the line of, not until its fully functional.. something like that.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] MJPollard:
Yup. His goal for RedPill-CM7 is stability and reliability, thus he's not adding anything until the CM7 team has pronounced it "good to go."
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Abu-7abash:
Is the version in the OP here the latest one (RC1) or is it the one on the original thread (V3)?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
V3 is the stable 3rd release of red pill. This rom isn't that. This rom is based on cm7 compiled by dorian with some of his own tweaks .
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Abu-7abash:
So the version in the op is the right and latest one huh. Great, downloading..
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tonesy:
any tried google earth using this rom, mine says device not supported, I didnt mess with the lcd density, still at 240 and also have cleared market data
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sdlopez83:
Wow I rarely would post something like this but wow my cpu temps are lower thanks regular cm7. And definitely snappier and smoother. I was skeptical, but the hype is real.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] campracing:
Did a full wipe through recovery then flashed redpill rom and the 1.45ghz ker over it. Has been running great and smooth for about two days now

Had two sudden reboots today after the phone freezing for like 5 secs. Was downloading a torrent in the background at both occasions, never happened to me on any rom using the same app.

Will test more and report back.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] myleb:
my phone hangs after phone call. it seems the proximity sensor keeps working and freeze the phone. cant open up screen until get phone call from my wife
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
try reflashing with a couple of wipes of system, data, preinstall, boot, etc. if this was an issue, it would have been reported awhile ago. this is specific to your phone only.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] itsonlym3:
i've had a couple of reboots after calls as well and weird things happening upon hanging up.

did multiple wipes prior to install. i've noticed other odd things upon receiving and ending calls, but can't quite put my finger on it and if it doesn't reboot, it generally starts responding as it should after a few seconds.

regardless, i'm sticking with this ROM for a bit, it's been really good aside from the above mentioned.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Abu-7abash:
Had a couple of SODs too along with the reported freezes and reboots. Decided to change the stock kernel to Faux's cm7 one, now and will see if that fixes it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] fabrijack:
Ok first time to use anything related to CM7. Booted up with no market etc.. then I realized I have to load all the google stuff. Can I just use the one from CM7 or is there a special edition for Red Pill?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mandroid717:
any google apps should be ok. if have used the google apps package that comes with CM7 Mod ICS beta 3 on redpill and cm7 week 4, dec 10
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
regular gapps zips will work with redpill.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mandroid717:
has anybody had the issues? when i am on a call and need to navigate to lets say the internet for some info then when i try to return to the call screen to close the call the screen keeps turning off.

actually i believe i have had that issue with every rom i have used.

hope i explained it ok.......
[Atrix 4G Android Development] SGN_DK:
+1 for me unfortunately
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sdlopez83:
I guess its the proximity sensor thinking your cheek is going on the phone so it shuts off screen. I press back button and quickly go to toolbar. I try to do it under the sensor which can be hard. But yeah I have had this on every rom as well.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kix08:
yeah that has to do with the proximity sensors. I haven't found a fix for it but sometimes if if you put the call in speaker phone it helps. I think you can turn them off completely with an option but not to sure would have to go dig around in setting and cm7 settings

MiUi+BlackIce theme+ics keyboard+ cascading transitions on launcher= BEST ICS look alike!! thanks AtriXDA Developers!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] pederb:
Great rom, absolutely loved it, to bad I need my Lapdock so I had to revert back :(

Cheers
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mandroid717:
thanks guys. makes sense know.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nosmohtac:
The proximity sensor is just to the right of the earpiece grill. If you pull down the notification bar to the left of the earpiece the screen will stay on.

You can actually see the location of the proximity sensor while you are in a call. It has a dim red glow to it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mandroid717:
Dorian where are uuuuuuuuuuuuu.......
[Atrix 4G Android Development] MJPollard:
Dorian himself won't be here, as he doesn't "do business" on xda. But if it's any consolation, we on "other forums" are wondering that ourselves. :) Presumably, he's still healing up from the nasty gash on his wrist that he suffered a week or so ago. Makes typing (and coding) a bit difficult.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] odinfire:
Posted on one of the "other forums":

OK, just an update (and an excuse for a useless post as I need to post a link soon), I'm finished with my ROM! I'm doing personal testing for a day tomorrow and hopefully I will upload it sometime this week.

And Dorian may be the download host

:p :p :p
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tonesy:
u know that post has nothing to do with dorian or the redpill rom, I'm confused as to why you are posting it?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
how is it confusing? noobs will be noobs amirite?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] odinfire:
Yup. Just a "noob." I suppose I should clarify. It's a rom based on Dorian's redpill at least that's what I gathered, and that's why I thought some might be interested. Here is the explanation from the other forum and I'll leave it be:

Lol, that's not very nice. Dorian helped me a lot, especially with the theming and ICS animations.

Whether you like it better or not, that'll be up to you when I release my ROM.

But as a teaser, mine is more towards keeping the ROM slim (VERY slim actually about 55mb ), removing a lot of bloat and then applying some speed tweaks.

So mine will be more towards speed and performance.

Whilst Dorian's will most likely be more towards stability.

And yes, mine is also a CM7 based ROM, but based on Weekly builds, not stable builds, which means yes it'll have FP scanner. But as I said, it may not be as stable as Dorian's.

What they seem to be saying to me is that they work with each other, or at least Dorian has helped. So please don't be so quick just to label me a "noob." Yeah, I don't know the dev's and I appreciate their work very much, but without the "noobs" to flash their roms, the dev's wouldn't get needed feedback.

I would like a final Redpill rom from Dorian just as much as anyone, but that doesn't mean someone else can't pick up the work and make some tweaks.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] MJPollard:
I feel an obligation to remind everyone that we were all "noobs" at some point. ;) The only way to not be a "noob" is to acquire knowledge, and I've often found that kicking them in the teeth isn't the best way to impart knowledge. Perhaps we "superior beings" should keep this in mind, and cut others a little slack instead of cutting them down? It doesn't take much extra effort to say, "You can find the answer over here, and for future reference, perhaps you should do such-and-such," instead of, "Go Google it, you noob a**hole!" (Okay, I haven't actually seen anyone call someone "a**hole," but that's the sentiment nonetheless.)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] odinfire:
Thanks MJ, I guess all I was trying to say was that something new was coming. I like the forums here, and I will mostly lurk like I do on reddit and other sites. The noob label really doesn't help people come out of their shells very much.

And just to show I'm not just some 13 year old, let me ask how hard it is for these "members" who like to call people names to use proper grammatical English when they post to forums instead of just "u." Or at least, they could use a semi-colon between two independent clauses. That to me seems like 6th grade English. Not everyone who starts posting here is a child. In fact, some may be your college level professors in areas other than programming.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
From the moment I made an account here and watched the infamous video, I have always searched and used google to find answers. I don't really use the term noob, but being new somewhere doesn't mean u have to be lazy. I wasn't.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] odinfire:
I like your avatar. Just thought you might find funny that this year "nom nom" and "sammich" have been added to the Oxford English Dictionary as official words. I now suppose I can look forward to hundreds of essays using those terms. :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mandroid717:
agreed 100%. if you have nothing nice to say do not say anything at all.......
[Atrix 4G Android Development] odinfire:
Straight from Dorian from the "other forum."
