Looks very interesting - I'll look into it.

I got a few questions I wanna ask:

1) Is the stock CM7 kernel more battery-friendly than Faux123's 026 kernel?

2) Is it better for me to make a CM10 ROM than a CM9 one - is it worth the jump?

If yes, than why? Is CM10 at a stage where it is as stable as CM9 was - so only has the CM9 bugs (like the Nvidia driver stuff etc).

Regarding V2.9, I've got a headache trying to port this ICS style statusbar found here and so I may decide not to do it after all and maybe look into it for V3.0. I'm probably gonna post a thread in the theme section soon and will edit this post when I do, because I know I'm doing it right, but it's not working and it's really annoying the hell outta me.

So then, the next nightly should be out today or tomorrow (following the pattern of weekly updates) and I will build fresh from the latest nightly and get V2.9 up ASAP.

Sorry for the delay.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] AkaGrey:
AFAIK cm 10 got the same bugs on cm9 and stable like cm9, BUT it's a lot smoothier then cm9 cause of butter project. (i'm saying this reading the comments on people who are trying cm10)

For cm7 kernel, i don't mind, I always get 1d+ of batterylife ;)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] antmiu2:
1) i dont think so.. not quite sure.. but we do want whichever is best for batter life

2) i vote for making a CM9 until CM10 is much more advanced, because unlike the last post I find it to be very very buggy.. lots of problems.. not stable all. I would give cm10 a couple of months before making it my daily driver. OR make CM10 if you are willing to update it about every 2 weeks because theres constantly a lot of progress being made to it at this stage.

as far as v2.9 i would say take your time to make it right.. theme doesn't matter that much imo.. glad to hear updates on your progress mr neutrino.. your my only hope for the atrix roms :highfive:
[Atrix 4G Android Development] supergen007:
I tried both cm9 and cm10 and can say that they are at the same stage - wait for nvidia drivers. Don't see any reason to go for "outdated" cm9 ;).

Waiting for your great 2.9 Neutrino.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] superkev:
The best kernel I've tried is the faux123 26b1. Battery life is better than any of the others I've tried.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ilkinansr92:
Yeh I tried to remake the mod but all I got was bootloop =( tried to contact the dev but he didn't reply

Sent from my CM7 Motorola Atrix 4G
[Atrix 4G Android Development] antmiu2:
well if there just as advanced.. that mean cm9 for the atrix was slow.. in that case go for cm10 but it would be nice you add a OTA like update me and update it more often then neutrino cm7. cheers
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Erebus671:
In my slightly selfish opinion, I'd like to see both, mostly because I just wanna play around with ICS a little before jumping into Jelly Bean, but don't have the time, nor the skills to script my own ICS ROM and I would like to use a ROM that I know well hence sticking with your ROMS for that. However, I do agree with one of the above posts. Why run with an "outdated" ROM? By the time you get your CM10 ROM working for the first time you'll probably be able to put an update out in the next week or so that will take care of CM10.x.x's bugs. I haven't had the time to really be active on XDA lately, but I've at least MADE the time to keep updated with the news, and Jelly Bean ROMs seem to be picking up speed faster than ICS ROMS. From what I've read there are some Jelly Bean Releases that are more stable than ICS, and Jelly Bean also seems to be a hell of a lot smoother than ICS.

Really, though, it is your choice, if you feel that you can get CM9 out faster than CM10 and you fell it would be more stable and productive to do so, then by all means, go the CM9 route instead. Just putting that out there.

OT: I do not like XDA's new look... it's painful for my eyes...

---------- Post added at 09:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:51 AM ----------

You got a point there. CM10 did only just come out compared to CM9...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Notorious544d:
Wow! Long time no see Erebus!

Anyways, updating CM10 will hopefully not be an issue if I register with SGN_DK's OTA suggestion. It looks really neat and very simple. And it hopefully shouldn't take too long to theme CM10 as it's almost the same as CM9 (and I had finished themeing CM9).

I'm leaning towards CM10 atm as it seems better for the long term but after trying it out myself, it is still pretty buggy IMO.

Which leads me onto another idea. How does a dual-boot configuration sound - CM10 as the primary ROM and stable CM7 onto the SD card. I've been looking into eprinter's dual boot scripts and it doesn't look like it'll be much of a challenge to do this.

What do you think?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] antmiu2:
naaa i dont dig that at all. its either one or the other... well i kinda did say cm10 was still very buggy but guys in here said it about pair with cm9 which i doubt but cant say for sure because i haven't tried a cm9 yet. i rather stay on the rock solid cm7.2 platform then a limp upgrade..

but the dual boot is definitely a no no. too much hassle and need more resources..

I would love to see a nice CM10 under the Neutrino label but i suggest to go with whichever you feel like doing that would provide a great rom for daily use :cowboy:
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Notorious544d:
I think I've almost got OTA working. This means that it may be included in V2.9 :D

Anyways, V2.9 will have new statusbar icons. Here's a preview.

What do you think?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tacginc:
I know my teachers always told me that I'm the slowest kid in class, but these look identical to the ones you're using in 2.8
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Notorious544d:
Look at the Wi-Fi and signal icons :angel:
[Atrix 4G Android Development] antmiu2:
mmmmm looks delicous..

i cant find the changelog anywhere can you tease us and put it in the main post!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Erebus671:
Yes, it has been a while, I've had a long and arduous summer... It was one thing after another. I'm glad to be back, but I won't be 24/7 like before, my lack of sleep issues are finally catching up to me.

Well, I do have my secondary Atrix, if you would like a second opinion on your CM10 I would be happy to beta it on my secondary unit.

Normally I would be all for dual boot, but I'd have to agree with you on this one. I'm willing to play around with it as I do have a 32GB microSD card in my primary phone so I have the space to do it with. I'm just not to sure of the productivity value of it... (I know, that's horrible grammar, especially coming from me, but I could not think of the right word.)

Anyway, like I said Notorious, if you would like a second opinion on CM10 I would be happy to beta it for you. I would even be willing to play around with the dual boot configuration if you want.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Izy:
Lol wifi icon has wider bars and signal has taller bars. Its not that much of a difference.

IMO headset icon could do with a change in 2.9 it looks clunky
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwarzlichtkind:
Thank you so much for the patches - I was stuck with ba2ft because no other patch worked for me.

I can´t make any working patches on my Win7 Dell Inspirion Mini 10....
[Atrix 4G Android Development] moleg:
Faux123 released kernel Atrix-CM7-Kernel-1.45GHz-027b5.zip
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xhazk:
Ya my patches made on multiple systems cause bootloops too.

Atrix -- because newer and more expensive isn't always better.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] PaoloLast:
My opinion is

1) Faux kernel is good enough in terms of battery

2) CM9 or CM10 depends on drivers and stability... Motorola will release ICS for Atrix (it should be Q3 but sadly i think Q4 or later...) and dont think they will release JB for atrix... so, CM9 will be perfect as CM7 (due to drivers), may be not the same for CM10...

Or JB can use ICS drivers? in this case CM10!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Erebus671:
It is very unlikely that JB would use the same drivers, but considering that you're probably, sadly, right about Motorola not releasing JB for the Atrix, someone could probably retro script the drivers to work with CM10 over time. I would probably be easier to retro script the GB drivers instead of the ICS drivers simply due to the fact that they've been out longer and people have had more time to mess with them. The ICS drivers wold be better though due to updates.

As far as the kernel goes, Faux's has always been the most stable and had the best battery life, so I would stick with that as well.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Izy:
Tried cm10 it is quite fast compared to cm9 all it needs to be is more stable and if we get ics drivers from moto they can be ported to KB since its basically a slimmed ics.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Erebus671:
Porting!!! That's what I was thinking of, not retro scripting! Haha! Silly me, thanks for correcting me, even if it was unintentional. :)

I think IE does a half decent job on xml files right? Is all good according to Microsoft?

It might be worth looking at what is calling the xml file as IT may be syntacticaly wrong.

4G zip not playing nice with me.

Which lines do I edit in the buil.prop file?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jjwatmyself:
Extract and copy the file from the S zip file. If we start editing files on this thread, we'll be having to use those code tags and I'll typo the living qwerty out of it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] katinatez:
Thank's jjwatmyself

Thank's this will save me from re-flashing!:D
[Atrix 4G Android Development] brianwzb:
Hey, such amazing magic. I didn't do anything and the background just worked.

I think this rom needs some time to tweak itself and finally works stable
[Atrix 4G Android Development] dom_b:
This didn't fix the brightness error. However... the first fix did! Cmparts attempt.zip :D cheers!

Btw I love this rom. A reinstall of gta 3 fixed that so it wasn't rom related. Just the flash issue now but not sure if that is a problem with neutrino/cm or something else.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] milesjohnson:
How come no auto rotate apps work though?

Ignore me lol this isn't the case
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jjwatmyself:
Ok, so here is the current stock Neutrino S (left) vs the 4G/3.5G (right) build.prop zip file diff. I have not looked at an AT&T stock to compare yet. BTW I created this using my favorite program ExamDiff Pro, the ultimate in file/directory compare tools <-- And I've seen a few! It is worth noting that our friends in England will be firing on 2 cylinders at this point, so letting them snooze for a couple mins is a good thing.

BTW For all of you that have been reading this thread, belly up and DONATE a beer or three to the dev. It's the right thing to do. The best code is written when you have a few in your system.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] jerrygooch:
I want to clarify. I have "H" in my status bar all the time. Every now and then it switches to "3g" for a second in the top. So does the status bar at the top display a "H+" when it's 4G or an "H" (like my phone has shown since I've had it on all roms? "3g" = 3g (obviously) and from what I understand about this post.. "H+" = 4G so where does that leave "H"? Or maybe I'm analyzing this to hard. as far as I know Conway does have the extra. Backhaul to handle data (HSPA+) care to explain? Thanks!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jjwatmyself:
Wiki has some good info on HSPA. H+ is what tmobile and at&t are doing to increase speed before true 4G (LTE). It all comes down to what the radio on the phone supports. Gsmarena.com has some good tech specs that show what phones are shipping with. Hope that helps.

Oops, forgot to mention that 3g is umts and HSPA is faster 3g. H+ is more about optimized infrastructure than anything.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] MiZrY:
EDIT: Back tracked a few pages............. messing with the 3g/4g settings now...

[Atrix 4G Android Development] Tattered:
I love the rom, but is there any way to change the font for the clock on the lockscreen?

I've seen this issue on another part of this thread but I can't find it again.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] MiZrY:
OK, speedtest.net tested with 3g tweaks, 4g tweaks and no tweaks.

No Tweaks: 3mbps download/1mbps upload consistently. (though I was having trouble testing on the same test server as the 3g/4g tests)

3g Tweaks: 4.5-5.1mpbs download/1-2 mbps upload

4g Tweaks: 3-4mbps download/3+mbps upload

Keep in mind I live in San Diego, California where everyone and their momma has a Android phone..... so these numbers may not be entirely accurate depending on the load of the network.

BUT with the data I collected thus far....4g tweaks were always slower then the 3g tweaks in terms of download speeds...... but the upload for the 4g tweaks was ALWAYS faster by 1.5-2+ mbps then the 3g tweaks.

EDIT: After further testing I'm realizing it is rather difficult to get any consistent reliable data. I will try this late at night when most people "should" be sleeping hehe :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] phouse1025:
This maybe a dumb question but why is there not a scaling governor in setcpu? I don't have the option to set one.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] phouse1025:
I rebooted and the it activated by itself, so i didn't end up having to do anything special?

First of all, it looks awful, second, gives me occasional reboots. I think i started hating CM and roms based on it.. No hard feelings, just doesn't work for me.. Out.

Also creating a CM9 with addons from CM10 could be a solution... if is easyer instead of porting the whole package.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Erebus671:
you mean similar to the porting of CM9 themes into a CM7 based ROM such as xploited did back in Neutrino versions 2.6b and 2.7?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Izy:
No since cm9 is practically slimmed cm10. The apks from cm10 work in cm9 for the most. So he's saying make a cm9 rom with the cm10 apks in it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Erebus671:
Okay, now you've got me lost, CM9 is a slimmed down CM10? Have I miss read the descriptions of JB? I'm going to re-read the features and make sure I didn't make a mistake. I was extremely tired when I first read them.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Savant:
you're not lost and he has it mixed up jellybean is slimmed down not the other way around.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Erebus671:
Ah, thanks for clearing that up.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] :
I guess the atrix is so lame that every phone has a random reboot issue? Even my friend has a brand new one or atleast it looks a lot better than mine and his reboots randomly and when plugging in usb port in windows 7 pc the phone restarts right when you plug it in and the computer makes a notification sound about new usb device. Isn't that strange? Also my Textfree app doesn't update automatically, I have to manually refresh everytime. I wish I knew how to get an old version of the apk when it automatically refreshed when new messages arrived. Anyway advice? It's like com.pinger.textfree.apk I believe. The new version says they fixed bugs but instead created more issues those idiots.

Thanks buddies!

BTW - I'm so freaking sick of the Atrix. So AT&T offered me an early upgrade with new contract and I want the LG Optimus 4X HD!!!! 4.7 " of 1280x720 retina ips led lcd that kills an iphone lcd with it's amazing 1065:1 static contrast ratio (No More Junky PenTile Trash). Tegra 3 power house and the new what 10 Core Geforce ULP that devastates lmao. I'm hella excited to start off at 1.5Ghz with 4 cores and that 5th power savings core clocked at 500Mhz. When development gets far enough we might be able to disable all 4 cores and force it to the power savings core for daily use with that 2150mah battery! Battery life may be out of this world good!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] macaddict01:
Odd. I have been using two different Atrix phones for the last few weeks with several different Blur and CM7 based ROMs. Neither phone randomly reboots especially while connecting the PC cable. Maybe trying a full wipe with a non-overclocked kernel would stabilize it?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] PaoloLast:
Not only apks, also optimizations, has been done many times by devs, like CM6 for Milestone, with lots of part from CM7.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Notorious544d:
I'm doing last minute testing on V2.9 atm so it shouldn't be long now. I'll aim to get it up at ~3am GMT.

I've been messing around with the statusbar recently and want to hear your views on the screeny attached. There are very subtle differences:

- slightly lighter translucent background

- the background on the 'N' is fully black

- there is no indicator colour below the wifi, bluetooth, gps icons

- the white 'line' under the '3 UK'

- the 'X' to clear notifications

Please tell me if you like it how it is, if you like the screenshot and what to change, if any.

EDIT: If possible, please post a screeny of the current statusbar so I can use it for comparison.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xyrovice:
This is lookin pretty classy dude. I take no issue with any of these changes. The only qualm I foresee is a couple people not liking #4, the white line. But I'd keep it.

Wicked pumped about V2.9 Notorious! I'm glad you've been taking your time and didn't give in to the clamoring, impatient hordes (...even though that's basically all of us)!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] SGN_DK:
Transparent behind the 'N' - PLEASE !! :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Notorious544d:
I don't think you can. I can't delete it as well because I think that is a right reserved for mods and recognised developers.

The only way is to press the '!' triangle and report it, writing in the comment that you want to delete it.

Hmm... the reason I turned it black was because I felt it looked more classy with the more 'blackness' around the icons.

What does everybody else think?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] PaoloLast:
Transparent looks better also for me... you can try using a less transparent background behind the N, or a dark to light background like in nottachtrix...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xyrovice:
I need to disclaim my approval of the changes by saying that I usually flash the Theme Chooser mod and use a Basic Red CM7 theme (you can find it in the market...I get to it through ROMToolbox).

SO

ULTIMATELY

I'm not going to be looking at your (beautiful) theme all the time. So far I see 2 votes for transparent over black...and while I don't want people hijacking/derailing your work/theme, Notorious, know that my vote should be taken with even less grains of salt than the rest.

It is YOUR ROM though, man, and we are just its gracious users.

I think no matter what you decide, the sheer brilliance evidenced in this imminent V2.9 release will more than compensate for any theme objections.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] superkev:
I'm also voting for transparent or semi-transparent behind the N.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] :
Yeah idk my friend got a new replacement atrix just like I did. His LCD is noticably better looking and he's running default motoblur. His gps detects instantly and mine takes up to 10 minutes sometimes to work even with the United States.zip gps mod done. I'm not 100% if the gps mod did much for me but maybe it did. It still takes several minutes for my gps to start working. My new replacement atrix has a horrible pressure mark in the center of the lcd that messes up the touch screen. I hate AT&T for sending me a beat up used atrix when my original was in great shape since I always used it with my otterbox defender.

The one thing I am excited about for the atrix is Neutrino v2.9! CM9?!? If so that's unreal! I love cm9 it's so sexy and smooth! :) Every atrix is way different. Quality control is poor at motorola. My new replacement atrix has a crappier looking lcd than my original or my friends it's just washed out and just not very nice looking at all. One thing about my new atrix is it's way more stable on the 1.6Ghz kernel than my old atrix was and my new phone doesn't get hot like my old one. It's very stable on the 1.6Ghz no random reboots only when i plug in usb... But I'd have to confirm again...

Maybe I can convince AT&T to send me a decent working atrix before I upgrade to the LG Optimus 4X 1.5Ghz 4 core with that 5th power savings core which is intense! :)

[Atrix 4G Android Development] superkev:
Cool that you're pushing your Atrix to 1.6GHz, but if you do that, I'm not sure you can complain about stability issues ;)

Neutrino 2.9 is still CM7-based.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xyrovice:
I also want to say that that something about the Tegra3 architecture doesn't allow for 4G LTE.

I could be wrong though...or maybe it's on a phone-to-phone basis and this new LG 4X isn't subject to it.

Either way, this One X is a pretty safe bet...all without sacrificing intensity.
