[Atrix 4G Android Development] chonkit:
i see..but i didn't use that function..so i not aware of it..sorry

I'm a noob who can't figure out how to mount usb mass storage. Anyone know?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] anaschillin:
Connect the phone to the computer via USB and than drop down the notification bar on your phone. It will have a notification to mount the USB.

Thanks for the great work bill...

And I beg you, again, to let us from topsmart brazilian foruns help you translate this great work to brazilian portuguese.

Thanks.

The usb mount was not working, i don't know about the current release as i'm on ics for now.

There are a couple usb mount apps on googleplay that do work i believe just a bit quirky. (don't know about on this rom though)

I have personally used this and it worked on ics:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...tLnJhZm9pZC5tdWx0aW1vdW50c2RjYXJkLndpZGdldCJd

I saw there were some desktop fixes that should help smooth out the homescreens and icons a bit.

Thanks for the updates Bill, looks like miui/jb is coming along nicely!!

Q: I noticed that there was no option to backup apps on miui backup, do you know if that's been fixed?? thanks!

Remember to look at the changelogs people, they can tell you about fixes and updates!

[Atrix 4G Android Development] Izaacbrook:
I'm not getting any notification, I'm on the latest build
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Actually, now that this is MIUIAndroid, I believe they have a language pack on their site that will allow for the language. I know it is either on there or in the process of being developed....
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
I will have to take another look at the USB.apk. I think I have to use the one from te 2.8.17 build. I forgot that MIUI likes the legacy USB.apks...

The backup thing I think will be added in on a future release. I'm not on the rom at the moment....I've been playing the "flash Tegra2 libs and see if they help any" (so far very unsuccessfully...LOL) game for the last couple of hours over the top of CNA, which has kinda taken the spot of being the most stable of the JB roms I do at the moment...(AOKP had been until latest nightly).
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Ok....I'll be re-uploading this shortly. I have finally gotten the softkey lights working correctly. It took the last 3 hours to get the edits done so that it didn't just crank them to maximum when you turned on the screen. I also edited a few other things that seem to have smoothened it up a tad as well. Going to add in some new build.props (courtesy of my boy matriX1218 from over on the Photon) that should help too. Re-up should be up within an hour. I'm going to see if I can't get Aroma working properly before I set the rom up :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Oh...and I have Aroma working with JB, so I will be building my future releases into Aroma Installer (so no more needing to pre-wipe) :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] chonkit:
so the rom on jokersax site is the latest and work with aroma right?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] foxrivertrekker:
I was wrong about the miui backup! The reason it didnt show backup for apps was because i didnt have any downloaded!! :D And i was on the wrong drive so it wasn't seeing my backups. no biggie there. I would like to get back on my sd tho so i can find all my bits and pieces.

Thanks for fixing that soft key thing, i'm workin in the dark here!

Multimount works fine for usb for now so that's no problem. I think they've improved that.

Overall it looks pretty smooth and solid now, nicely done!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Aroma works now, too :) Rom is in the process of uploading as I type this. :)

I need you to do me a favor (I know you can do this, as you've been one of my good feedback people). When Aroma opens up, press your "search softkey" and choose calibrate. I need the EXACT output from this process (touch may be off before that, as it's calibrated for the Photon). Please send it to me in a PM. Thanks :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
2.8.31 Aroma is UP on Jokersax.com :)​
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nettoxx7:
Do I just wipe data n factory reset n install aroma? o..o 1st timer using aroma.

Coming from paranoid 1.95b job . :D
[Atrix 4G Android Development] foxrivertrekker:
I will accept the mission! lol

Downloading now, should be able to do it in about 10 mins

What kind of wipe should i do? I'd like to keep my setup if possible, tho i should be able to restore it now

ps. you know how i can get the right time on my forum posts, it says 621 am and its 1223 am here now ? im on us central and i think i have that in my preferences ?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] zefir738:
2.8.31 does not boot for me..unfortunately, I am unable to retrieve a logcat. i think adb is trying to connect over network instead of USB
[Atrix 4G Android Development] foxrivertrekker:
yep same here won't boot up, did full wipe, and second attempt did factory reset then full wipe aroma. Tried doing it emmc, same thing.

That's it for me tonight. Good luck.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
I'm going to have to take a look at it. Which option did you choose? Did you chose tweaked prop? I know it works on the Photon....might be something that doesn't work on the Atrix. That it got to the bootanimation tells me it is something probably pretty simple.

I actually think it's going to be something really simple. I'll re-upload the rom in a little bit :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
fixed rom is up :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] zefir738:
It didn't boot no matter what customizations I chose. I'll try the fixed version later. Any ideas as to why adb won't work for me?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Are you using linux of win? If linux, try this in a command prompt from the platform-tools folder

sudo ./adb kill-server

sudo ./adb start-server

./adb logcat -C
[Atrix 4G Android Development] chonkit:
just installed using aroma version in the site. i choose system wipe only and emmc as primary storage. managed to boot in. the transition issue still there..
[Atrix 4G Android Development] foxrivertrekker:
Well done Bill everythings working here.

Quick question:

I was on 2.8.10 and backed up my system and apps with miui backup with the sd as primary.

Then when i did the first 2.8.31 (non-aroma) which i assume was on the emmc, i did a backup there of system and apps with miui backup.

Now when i restored its showing me the latest backup from yesterday even tho i have the sd primary now ?

When i restored on all the previous versions i would always get all my contacts,messages,themes all would come back, but not this time.

How do i tell if i'm on sd as primary? Maybe it was a bad button press in aroma or do you know why this is so?? My apps are all showing theyre on interal as they have the option to move to sd card. I'm a bit confused here!

Thanks!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Count me confused as well...LOL

I'm not sure that the MIUI Backup is 100% as of yet....I haven't tested it yet on my phone. I'll keep you posted on it
[Atrix 4G Android Development] foxrivertrekker:
OK, what i'm saying is i think the aroma install is not setting the primary drive to external because it is putting all of my apps on the internal drive.

I've tried flashing both as emmc and sd primary and it comes up the same.

I have all my apps backed up on external full of data, but i cannot restore those with miui restore because its looking at the wrong drive i think.

For example, when i flash 2.8.10 with external sd primary i can restore all my apps with miui backup and all my data is there, contacts, txt message log all that.

Shouldnt i beable to flash 2.8.31 ex sd primary and then restore all my apps and data to the external sd ?

Make sense this time?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] android-DEP:
go to the settings menu, im not 100% sure exactly where the option is with this new UI on these MIUI builds but you should be able to go to Applications in settings menu and either check Use Internal Storage so it swaps the sdcards, just reboot after you choose that setting for it to take effect.

I always get this issue on CM7 builds where after first boot into system, i cant restore any settings or apps because my backup app shows nothing for saved backups until i check Use Internal Storage and reboot real quick, then everything suddenly shows up.

I do believe on MIUI v4 builds that there was the option to use internal storage in the settings.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Corrected Build is Up on Jokersax.com

Should FINALLY have the correct settings for the different storage setups​
[Atrix 4G Android Development] foxrivertrekker:
It doesn't seem to be working.

I'm not seeing my saved data from the SD only the emmc empties I dunno maybe the miui backup is looking in the wrong place?

Also, just letting you know the soft key lights only turn on when you touch one, then turn off in about 15 seconds.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
So far, that's as good as I can seem to get it to work. I continue to work on it, but it's better than the 1000% brightness it was doing...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] android-DEP:
here's something else i just started noticing with how sdcards and internal storage gets mounted and how its found by other apps. The 2 mount points that get used and swapped the most, are usually located at /mnt/sdcard and /mnt/emmc which is all spectacular and all but I know when i first tried MIUI last year and tried to use its backup feature to preserve the themes and lockscreens, it would never see them again if i went to another rom and then flash MIUI back later on. I ended up having a MIUI folder with backups on both of the storage locations so it always appeared like i was missing half my backed up stuff.

Also, to make things even more interesting, there is also another commonly used mount point at /sdcard and /emmc. THOSE ARE NOT THE SAME LOCATIONS AS AS /mnt/sdcard and /mnt/emmc. lol, Its so annoying when you always use one location from the /mnt/folder and then random apps backup settings and info to the other locations so they appear to be missing when you look for them.

download ES File Manager, in settings set it to Root Explorer and give it root permission with superuser, and set the home location " / " instead of "/sdcard". Then browse through all of the above mentioned mount points and locate where there is a MIUI folder. lol, i somehow managed to backup to a MIUI folder in all 4 locations, i dont know how but it makes sense now why i could never located it before with all my stuff. See exactly where you have your MIUI folders and using ES File Manager, you can mount the system with write permission and move those folders into a single location, I'm guessing you would have to move them all into the mount poiint that doesn't have a MIUI folder if you're not seeing your backups and MIUI is looking at some location thats different than where it used to look before and backup to. Then it should all show up properly. I'll be doing the same in a bit, i had a ton of themes backed up and thought they didnt really get backed up and instead were lost,
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Yeah...part of the JB code is this stupid SDcard 0, 1 junk. I really don't like it, but to get apps to compile properly, it seems necessary at the moment. :(
[Atrix 4G Android Development] foxrivertrekker:
That's a bit technical for me!

I did find some data backup in tib and gosms so together with miui backup it can be done. It just seems more complicated cuz of changing roms too much! What's a couple more apps?

I'm sure the jb roms will be perfected soon, but the 2.8.10 is no slouch either.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] EgOrus:
There are 2 problems in current rom:

1. Proximity sensor is not working during incoming call but it was working fine in first ver of MIUI JB 2.8.17

2. Horizontal scroll is jerky sometime
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
I'll look into the sensor...can you try to pull a logcat on that one?

Scroll issues are due to lib issues....unfortunately, it's something we're still trying to find a good workaround for
[Atrix 4G Android Development] glegge:
I am so pleased to have found these JB roms - thank you so much to the developer.

Today i updated to the .31 version (i only installed the last version last week, these are updating so quick).

Anyway, not one to grumble, but i wonder if i can ask if anyone else is having trouble with the below:

a) plugging into USB, I get no drives on PC accessible. also no notification on the atrix, also if i go into settings and say ask on plug in - i still get no dialogue asking what to do when i plug in USB.

b) no wifi tether :(

c) no usb tether.

I wonder if these things are somehow related.

wifi tether, when i try to turn it on from 'more settings' says 'turning on wifi' and nothing more ever happens. i can go in and configure the AP settings (password, wifi name etc) but it wont start up.

anyway, again, thank you for this awesome ROM.

cheers

Gavin
[Atrix 4G Android Development] EgOrus:
turn off/on proximity sensor sets, reboot, and wow! it's a miracle! All works great :) sorry
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
a) Tethering is NOT fully functional on ANY JB roms at this time. Use Barnacle app for that. I believe it is included in rom.

b)I will look into the USB thing, as I think it might just be incorrect USB.apk. I'll post a hotfix if other people are having the issue, but it won;t be till tonight, as I have to work today...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] djluis48:
What about the hotfix for the USB Bill? :P
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Franklee99:
Been using this as dd for a few days now, it's very solid. No reboots, only 2-3 fcs that I can remember. :)

Any chance you'll be doing a aroma version with more options? Say standard google gallery?

Also, any word on disabling hw acceleration for selected apps?

Thanks again Bill.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] foxrivertrekker:
For anyone having usb mount issues, get "multi mount" app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rafoid.multimountsdcard.widget&hl=en

It works.

ps. anyone know how to disable the google now voice search?? It turns on when you press and hold the headset button, but i need that for my music controls!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] glegge:
Many thanks for the prompt reply. I'll try Barnacle, and wait and see what turns up if you get time to look at the USB thing.

Kind regards

Gavin
[Atrix 4G Android Development] napsterr:
Do you know how to disable the

Power saving feature at night...

It asked me when I first installed the Rom... but there's no option to disable it....

I don't want to factory reset...

UPDATE: maybe it was the BLUR ROM that asked me.... but i'm not sure :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Rubb:
Hi there!

Just installed the latest version. :)

JB has some neat features! But I´m experiencing few minor "glitches" with this rom.

Screen stuttering: everytime I swipe the screen, it starts stuttering (just like in some games that you have to activate vsync). This happens a lot on the homescreen and when I´m browsing the images gallery.

Another thing....are you guys using a custom kernel?? I would like a 1.2ghz kernel and if someone could tell me where can I find it, I would be grateful :)

Thanks a lot

Rubb
[Atrix 4G Android Development] djluis48:
Screen stuttering its a known bug...if you want to reduce it, you can revert to 2.8.17, the first MIUI JB. It was way smoother than the current one, and have almost the same bugs that it have right now, except that one.

About a custom kernel, no one have made a public custom JB kernel for the Atrix yet, so you pretty much are stuck with the one the rom came with.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Stutter is known issue

Kernel options not available yet...I'll be working on it once I get a chance
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Question...anyone having issues with the Aroma build not flashing properly and exiting early with a Status 7 error? I ask because I have a report of it, but can't seem to figure out why it's doing it. Need to see if I can get someone to confirm. Thanks guys!​
[Atrix 4G Android Development] foxrivertrekker:
I don't know if it was a status 7 error, but i know atleast once or twice i had aroma bounce back to recovery right before it got to the page to reboot at completion.

This aroma is more buggy too having a hard time getting button presses to register. When i was testing during the calibration button presses were tuff there too.

Looks like you've got you're hands full with JB :D
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
JB isn't really that bad....I just have no ability to test it personally on the Atrix, so I'm reliant on good feedback. Right now, I'm being told status 7, which really is weird
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
OK....I've done it now

There are TWO versions up on Jokersax.com now. One is built into Aroma, the other is a Standard CWM.

I have fixed the bork in the themes application, so those are once again functional :)

CHEERS!​
[Atrix 4G Android Development] zefir738:
What was borked about the Themes application? it works fine for me.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Franklee99:
Have I somehow made my posts invisible?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
in 2.8.31 is wasn't applying themes right on the first builds I released....
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
There is a possibility, but being impatient won't help your case, my friend. I work on 12 ports...so you need to be patient. I plan to add more options, but I was having reports that the Aroma version wasn't working properly, so I needed to make sure that it was working right before I add more to it, ya know?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] zefir738:
i updated to the 9/5 reupload. button lights still aren't working properly. other than that, things seem to be working just fine..i'd like to be able to switch the sd card to primary storage, as my internal storage is practically full. i can do that through editing vold.fstab, right?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Yes...you can do that edit. Swap the 0 and 1 on the line /mnt/sdcard s

I'm still working on the lights...I know where the error is...just having fun trying to edit it properly, as MIUI adds in all sorts of strange proprietary smalis that alter things
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Did you use the Aroma one or the Standard one? I'm having someone report an error of Status 7, but that's for wrong ro.product.device or ro.build.product...but those are both correct in the build.prop, so I'm a bit confused on that one...LMAO
[Atrix 4G Android Development] zefir738:
I originally flashed the Aroma version, but used the CWM reupload today since i read that people were having issues with Aroma. However, my original install went off without a hitch; only problem I had was that the storage mount didn't stick when i chose to use external SD as primary storage. Also, I've been wondering what the tweaked build.prop does.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
tweaked build.prop is supposed to help some with data speeds and stabilize signal to improve battery life. I can say that it works pretty well, as I was only getting 8 hours with mod use before, and I get around 16 now.

Ahh....that might be the answer...the CWM...Thanks for the info on that one. I've been having no problems on Photon, but I have been using an old CWM (Joker's V3...done like 4 or 5 months ago).

Did the storage mount work at all the first time? I may have them reversed....maybe try the other one and see if it works. Since I don't own an Atrix, it's tough for me to sometimes get the setup tested right
[Atrix 4G Android Development] zefir738:
Ahh, I see. And no, it didn't work at all. It kept internal storage marked as primary.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Which is listed as your primary sd card? That was what this was intended to mod....
[Atrix 4G Android Development] zefir738:
I had chosen to set my external SD card as primary, but it set my internal as primary anyway.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Franklee99:
Thanks for the reply. I was seriously thinking my posts may not have been showing up for others.

I used the Aroma version to install and had no issue.

Current issues I'm having are: scrolling, captive lights (light up when pressed, but don't stay alight with screen). These are known to you :)

Good news regarding an options ver of aroma.

Your hard work is appreciated. Do you have any links/info for someone who might like to look at porting themselves?

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] invinciblervd:
Does anyone know if MIUI video player is present as one of the apps in Applications menu ? It's not visible but if I browse to the video file via file explorer and click it, then it prompts if it can be played by video player or any of the downloaded once which is 2 step process and hence was wondering if it can be downloaded from somewhere so it shows up as one of the App.

Cheers,

It's a bit different from previous Aroma setups...should be a nice change.

Couple extra options as well.

At MIUIAndroid.com, there are translation packs. Those should be able to fix it :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] djluis48:
Bill, why don't you use the same tweaks or whatever you were using on 2.8.17 to fix the transition bug? It was way better on that version.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] foxrivertrekker:
Looks like everything's fixed MIUI/JB is a go!

USB mounts both drives, SD card issues gone.

Miui backup, themes, contacts, logs all restore.

Its so nice to have my phone back up and running so quick after an upgrade. Seems quicker and smoother too.

Aroma no errors first try.

are the kernels operational? I'm seeing 1000 on the 1.3.

Thanks.

Hi,great rom..:victory: there's a way to have multi lang rom?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] djluis48:
Miui Android have several trandlation packs for diffrrents languages. You can download any of them and then flash it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
It wasn't tweaks....Android JB updated some code between those builds, and unfortunately, it made out transitions wonky. I can't go legacy libs, as when I do, this thing doesn't even boot...as MIUI has gone full-speed ahead on using the latest code fof JB.

I'm very much anxiously waiting for Moto to be nice and send all us good little boys and girls a Nice lib present. Hell, my B-day is coming up...maybe I can make a request to them for a b-day present for me....LOL!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Whoops! That's Photon code I accidentally left in there. I still have to try to patch some kernels for you guys.

That should be the only option that's not fully functional. :)
