Guys any settings where i can disable the stock locking option? I am trying to use holo locker. Now i am getting two lockers one circle locker(holo locker) and once i unlock it i am getting original locker also..
[Motorola Photon 4G] dwaynet89:
I had to use an app called no lock. It disabled the stock launcher.
[Motorola Photon 4G] thabest85:
No music Music player why would this be removed from rom
[Motorola Photon 4G] Akhileshjj:
Thanks but that disables the stock locker with any other locker. What i was looking at was disable stock locker and use holo locker instead.
[Motorola Photon 4G] cwill0303:
The Holo locker has a choice in the settings to make it the default. While it usually works as it should, there are sometimes when the stock locker shows after unlocking with Holo. Didnt happen a ton but it was enough for me to just go back to stock.
[Motorola Photon 4G] photon2:
FYI - For those locked users who forget to wipe data and reset after flashing (like me) and boot loop, try this... I found this on Motorola's website for a quick way to hardware reset the device

Perform a factory reset using external keys

:

Power off the phone, press and hold volume down button, press power button

Screen will come up with "Fastboot", press Vol down key to cycle through choices until you get "Android Recovery", then press Vol up key

Wait for the "triangle ! / Android" screen then go on to step 4

Press both Vol up and Vol down key simultaneously. A menu will come up

Tap on Vol down key until "wipe data/factory reset" is highlighted, and tap Power key. Another Confirmation screen will come. Tap on Vol down key until coming to Yes and tap Power key

After userdata is cleared, the "reboot system now" option will be highlighted by Default. Tap Power key

Phone will reboot to initial setup screen.

Get Titanium Backup, set holo launcher as a system app, and then disable/uninstall the other launcher.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Akhileshjj:
Not working. Still i am getting two lock screens.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Bock Abrams:
Did you just Freeze the stock launcher?

Forgive me, I lost all my nadriod backups last night, otherwise I'd flash back to it, but the only way I've kept multiple launchers form stepping on each others toes is to completely uninstall the offending launcher.

Remember to make sure you have a back up made, and an nandroid backup too just in case, before removing something as vital as a launcher.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Akhileshjj:
I uninstalled the default launcher (nemus) and made Holocaust as default. But still no luck. Is there any default lockscreen app seperately? This is not a reason to stop usung such a nice rom but still trying :p
[Motorola Photon 4G] dragontology:
Now that's an unfortunate autocorrect.

One aspect of Android customization that has never worked is the lock screen, or rather disabling it. Any method is a cheap hack that will never work 100% of the time. This includes methods by alternative lock screens like WidgetLocker and others, and the app/widget No Lock. It's unfortunate but that's how it is.

Also, the lock screen isn't part of the launcher. It's separate, but I don't know what it's called. You can delete your stock launcher and you won't touch the lock screen. (Source: I've done it, but not for that reason.)

===========

I returned back to this ROM after trying out the CM7 over the last weekend. Too many things don't work, Navigation Dock did not work, bluetooth was flaky, no LapDock (but I knew that) and the HDMI Mirror only works in Portrait. So back I returned as I figured I would to what I think is an awesome ROM. Great work! I was thinking of making a different theme. Do you guys have any request? Say like ICS with Red or Green? Or maybe just make another version for a theme. Any input?
[Motorola Photon 4G] jbaumert:
Do you possibly need to flash one of the other module sets from the original post?

---------- Post added at 11:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:33 PM ----------

Just curious, did you notice the recent ICS based theme Planters76 has put together in the "Themes" section?
[Motorola Photon 4G] TechGuy77:
Yes I am using that theme by Planters76. I also asked permission to edit his theme to maybe make another version or take request for changes. While I have never edited an Andriod theme before its not super complicated. I did some theming for Windows Mobile and Palm Treo back in the day. So any request for changes to Planters76 theme like different color etc. I am currently trying to edit some items for myself but want to share it with everyone. I'm married now with kids so don't have a lot of time to do the theming but hopefully can come up with something. I have already changed my boot image and edited a bootanimation to my likings. So figured why not do a theme to.
[Motorola Photon 4G] jbaumert:
That's awesome. It's great to see interest keeping an old phone feeling "new"

How do you skip activation? I don't have any option for skip and phone keeps rebooting as I'm not subscribed.
[Motorola Photon 4G] jbaumert:
You might try tapping the four corners in a circle (top left, top right, bottom right, bottom left). Seems I came across that somewhere and used it once.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Magnus579:
I was able to get by the activation by restoring my Nandroid backup, SBF back to stock (probably not necessary), then I used a thread found here on xda that said the following (I'd link it but can't due to post count):

Just delete these 2 files from system/app folder using rootexplorer after rooting.

SprintOMADMConnMOPlugin.apk

SprintOMADMConnMoPlugin.odex

After that, re-applied KDDI, then Hybrid ROM and I am able to get into the home screen.

A shorter method can probably be achieved by using adb and deleting the files from a command line but above worked for me.

Bluetooth not working

I have been using this wonderful ROM since long, but recently found that bluetooth is not working, actually when you make it discoverable, and you go away from that setting screen, the discoverable status disappears, again you have to make it discoverable. then when other device discovers and pairs with it, file transfer fails...i have tried many times, reinstalling rom but blouetooth doesnt work.

any solution?
[Motorola Photon 4G] lagvoid:
I don't have any problems using bluetooth with multiple devices (2 cars, 1 headset).

On another note, does anyone know how to lower the overall brightness levels on this rom? It's way too bright for me and seems to get stuck on higher levels all the time.

What all is needed to flash this on an Electrify?

I get the boot animation, and it just boot loops. Let it go three times before restoring CM7. I mean is there anything else I need to flash? Tried v20 unlocked.
[Motorola Photon 4G] jrebo:
a factory reset usually fixes a boot loop. did you try that?
[Motorola Photon 4G] dragontology:
No, I've never heard of a factory reset immediately after installing a ROM. Doesn't a factory reset just format \data? And doesn't installing a ROM do that?
[Motorola Photon 4G] hoslayer13:
Wipe system data cache for a clean install because I imagine bits and pieces from cm7 are residual and causing your boot loops.

Edit: Probably just data and cache, I imagine though because the system partition gets formatted anyway when you install.
[Motorola Photon 4G] jrebo:
I only do this step if it loops. when I was unlocked it happened alot between ROM types, blur, cm7, cm9, etc. it has to do more than just a data format.
[Motorola Photon 4G] NishantM:
The best way to flash a new ROM is:

1. Wipe data/factory reset from existing ROM.

2. Flash new ROM

3. Wipe data/factory reset again.

Never got bootloops on any ROMs out there.
[Motorola Photon 4G] killaphatboy:
Need some instructions as I'm confused by the op. My gf is on MOF 2.3.5 ish with a locked BL on sprint network. I assume I should flash the rom, libmoto files, but the 2.3.5 module says for electrify and the other is for 2.3.4 sv1. Which should I flash for her?
[Motorola Photon 4G] jrebo:
backup, flash v 20 for locked, then libmotofile. you can throw in a factory reset and clear cache and dalvic after the backup to prevent a possible boot loop. thats what I did...
[Motorola Photon 4G] killaphatboy:
Thanks for the reply, so I do not need to flash either module or stock kernel after rom and libmoto files? Sorry for the dumb questions, I'm a noob to flashing for this phone and am used to the simple flashing of my E4GT.

[Motorola Photon 4G] thabest85:

[Motorola Photon 4G] MarcquisDale:
So this is an ota update
[Motorola Photon 4G] dragontology:
What website is that? There is no mention of an update at the uscellular.com page for the Motorola Electrify.

If your bootloader is unlocked or unlockable I would avoid any OTA updates until the community has had a chance to look it over and ensure it won't lock you out of unlocking or rooting. But nobody's talking about this OTA here on XDA, so I don't know.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Brandroid28:
Yeah, it was a different model of the Electrify. Should've known. They hardly ever roll em out.
[Motorola Photon 4G] dragontology:
Yeah. I'm pretty sure there will be no more updates for the MB853 Electrify. The last soak test (which isn't a proper update, it's an update test) for the MB855 Photon 4G was months ago, and I don't think that resulted in an OTA. So not only is the sunfire not getting ICS/JB, they're not even taking it to 2.3.7 (Gingerbread final, which is what I think all the CM7 ROMs run). Not that anything important was added, but it would be nice to know they cared enough to at least give us the latest Gingerbread. 2.3.5 was the last major update with the video camera max resolution bumped to 1920x1080 from 1280x720 and I think one other little fix.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Brandroid28:
Ha. I hate it's not as easy as checking for an update. It's got to be a compatible one. But I'm obsessed when it comes to updates, even if it's not major. And it sucks you get a new phone before you ever get an update. This one's always had SD Card problems for me. At least these developers care enough, because this ROM and theme is a substantial upgrade. Shame I didn't learn about it sooner.
[Motorola Photon 4G] dragontology:
Huh. I've never gotten peetr's to work, but I follow them all. Trying to get it to work again is on my agenda for next week. Typically, I want one Blur ROM, one GB ROM, and one JB ROM in Nandroid, and I kind of bounce between them. I keep hearing this one is the best. My problem with GB is that it can't hold a WiFi connection to save its sorry life (in the stock ROM and in cybik's CM7) but I've been testing an app on my wife's phone (Electrify, stock everything, unrooted, locked but unlockable) that will hold the WiFi connection via wifilock. So far it's been holding, so I'll get it into my own Blur and CM7 Nandroids, the latter of which may get replaced by this.

I'd love to find a ROM that works for Electrify (i.e. doesn't try to activate my phone on Sprint), has Blur but some of the annoying parts cut out (I want gallery, camera, and music, and the notepad, and the launcher, everything else can DIAF) and some CM7 tweaks like the notification toggles. But most people hate anything Blur, and I don't really blame them. I just like it as an option.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Brandroid28:
Wow. I'm so new to ROMs. I think with 2.3.5, I only had the option of this one and Rokko's. Luckily, this one worked flawlessly. Tbh, I'm not completely sure what Blur is. It's just Motorola's own apps, right? You could just backup the apks in Titanium and restore them on the ROM you want. I'm one of those who never cared for it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] dragontology:
Blur is Motorola's fork of Android. And no, Blur apps don't just work without a Blur ROM installed. There are certain files that need to be present. Android apps are 100% compatible with Blur (as in, if an app will run on Gingerbread 2.3.5, it will run on "Gingerblur" 2.3.5) but Blur-specific apps will not run on Android (or TouchWiz, or Sense).
