Turn auto brightness off then on again and they will come back
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Johnston212:
Ok, so this is my first time trying a ROM on my Atrix 4G before. I have done plenty of ROMs on my old Captivate, so I'm not a complete NOOB.

I followed the instruction and I have not been able to get past the Unlocked Motorola screen. I'm going to try everything again, but even when I tried to restore my Nandroid backup, it didn't seem to work, so I am getting concerned. Any help would be great appreciated.

---------- Post added at 10:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:22 PM ----------

Ok, so if I do the whole Error report part before I flash, I am unable to hit the Next button on the installer. What am I doing wrong?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
You need to do Report Error, Show Log. If you factory reset or delete /system, touch will be borked. If touch isn't working, the volume and I believe camera or power buttons can navigate

anyone else experiencing poor battery life?tried several kernels but still,the battery goes from 100 to 50 in about 2 hours of easy use (facebook app,some music...)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] stl-soldier:
Did you flash a different kernel? Using the stock kernel I was getting better battery life than ever on this phone. If not, try a battery monitoring app to see what's causing the drain.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mafiarock93:
well,maybe u could try faux kernel and see UV can help u anythig?i have good battery life and cool phone with stable UV

well i currently using one of the older faux kernels (2.6.32.59-mb860-cm9-faux123 to be exact) the battery life is better,but still not the battery life i was having on Jokers cm9 build.

APN Fix

Th3Bill,

Great work again. This is way more smoother and eye candy than the previous builds of MIUI. But seems the APN issue has gotten worse :(. Did a standard install, Jokers Std Kernel, Default Stock GSM Build. But now the APN's go off randomly sometimes after I finish a call. In the earlier build the settings used to stay for a few hours, but now its minutes or max an hour...

Did *#*#4636#*#* and its set to GSM only. Please fix this issue...!! I end up losing a lot of battery life by doing restarts to restore the APN.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Johnston212:
Yep, did that several times. Eventually I set the installer to Non Flash and Custom Install. Repaired the System Partition and everything is running fine for the most part. TiBu seems stuckish on some apps, but otherwise good so far
[Atrix 4G Android Development] maheshjagadeesan:
Hi Bill,

I can confirm that the APN issue still persists. Will try to logcat and send something later today, data connection doesn't work now anyway :-/
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Johnston212:
Is this fix still available? I can't get BT to work past "Turning On" and it's something I can't really live without. The link above is 404'd, so I could really use some direction if anybody knows where it is available at now.

Anyone else get this with latest build 2.6.8 aroma base.. for Atrix .. I've download twice yesterday just see if I had bad download..
[Atrix 4G Android Development] skytechja:
im trying to do a restore of an earlier backup because my APN is totally gone....

now, when i try to restore either the backup or the one i made before i tried to do any restoration at all....

i get the error message "error while restoring /system!"

.............

update.....

got through n did a restore..... apn up n running for me......
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Johnston212:
OK, so does anyone have any issues with Facebook in the accounts and sync settings? I am trying to add Facebook and all it does is stick at the splash screen
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Johnston212:
Thanks, hopefully this will work
[Atrix 4G Android Development] skytechja:
thanks... im all good now
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
I corrected it, so it should work now. You may not want to download just yet....Joker updated CM9 last night, and I already have Photon running on new base (6.9.3). I will be updating the Atrix base this afternoon or evening. :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] chonkit:
Just finished flash ur new 2.6.8 aroma base using special wipe option..no problem encountered..by the way it should take longer boot on 1st time after flash it? Mine very long until I pull out the battle and restart it again
[Atrix 4G Android Development] FtaWolf:
Try different recovery program..
[Atrix 4G Android Development] DeathBase:
Portuguese-Brazil PT-BR would be perfect :)

I have a doubt also, about the SDcard (emmc), this ROM no execute when i put the USB, only read internal card in my PC, does have a fix to it?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
At this time, PC will only see whatever storage is primary. If u have emmc it will see that. If SD card it will see that. I have to work on a fix so both will mount. :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] thebeardedchild:
I've noticed that apps and Widgets that control different volumes on the phone don't seem to work? Widgetsoid volume sliders have no effect when set and audio manager sliders won't even move. Does miui not allow separate apps control volume functions or is this a glitch?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
I'm actually not sure. Haven't tried any yet. Mostly been building...lol
[Atrix 4G Android Development] thebeardedchild:
Haha I gotcha, no worries. I actually found out that permission to change volume was being denied, even though the system never asked me. So I went in to the permission app though and sorted out it and it's working!

However, I DID find out that there seems to be no way of separating ringtone volume from notification/alert volume, like I was able to in the past. Is this something that could possibly be implemented in the future? The least of our worries, of course, but just curious!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] berniesteven:
Tones not working on dialer.

Peace

MB860
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
When u say tones, you mean on number press? Odd...works on my photon....just tested. Not sure why it isn't working.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] berniesteven:
Yup, tried to press 1 in voice mail, and it didn't register. Tried other numbers and same thing. Digit appears in window, but that's all.

Sent from my MB860
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
This seems to be an issue that is showing up on the latest CM9 based roms. Some phones the tones work, some they don't. I've seen the same on the Atrix CM9 thread...some have working tones, others have non-working. Mine are working (just tested with my work's main line option system...) Maybe try a non-wipe reinstall?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] berniesteven:
Will do. Thanks

MIUI ROM recently made a poll asking which device should get MIUIv4 next. It happened on their Facebook page.

Given the fact that Facebook is like mainstream and almost everybody has an account, I think you should check it out and give a shot at it : vote for Motorola ATRIX 4G :) .

The poll is on MIUI ROM timeline, the latest (so far). Link : https://www.facebook.com/miuiromchina

Hope you don't mind, Th3Bill, for going somewhat off-topic about this. :D
[Atrix 4G Android Development] DeathBase:
+1 ...I already voted ;)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
This is good...except it's no guarantee that it will get translated from Chinese. MIUI.us only chooses certain devices to build officially...the rest are ports....done by guys like me. They don't always follow all of the China versions.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Bert.C:
This build is just as good as if miui built it officially. miui can't magically get their hands on the libs we need from moto or nvidia. They will end up with what we have now made by th3bill.

You still want a quick guide to translate th3bill?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] thechump:
I still can't get Aroma to work got 2.5.11. Also, are there still wifi problems with this ROM?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Very much so :) I'd love it. I know that some people are not using this rom or getting full use from it due to that issue :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
If you're having issues with Aroma not flashing the rom, here's the way to get it to work 99% of the time. It sounds weird, but I will explain...

In CWM:

go to Advanced

Choose Report Error, then

Choose Show Log, then

Reboot Recovery,

THEN flash rom when you get back into CWM.

For some reason, Aroma will bork if there are ANY unreported errors. It is a VERY sensitive installer. I usually will do the above procedure before EACH time I flash using Aroma. Any time I have done that procedure, I've had NO issues. Hope this helps :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] FtaWolf:
Thanks Thebill, I my just hold off for bit then...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
It can take a couple mins. System is slower due to having to integrate all the extra apps.:)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] skytechja:
i got through with the restore.....

what i had to do was wipe sytem n data n reboot recovery. after that i was fine....
[Atrix 4G Android Development] skytechja:
so is everything up and running with 2.6.8 now...

gonna b updating later also using the special wipe
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kommodore44:
im trying to flash this, got the regular one no problem

then i saw the list of goodies ive been missing without using AROMA

for some reason the aroma installer isnt registering my keypresses...

did i mess something up?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] skytechja:
before flashing aroma...... did u

Report Error

Show Log

Reboot Recovery

then install it ?

and what kernel are u using ?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kommodore44:
indeed i did, i checked that out when i was first having issues (yay google)

and i switched back to AOKPCB for the moment

my kernel is 2.6.32.59-MB860-CM9-gd23c5fb
[Atrix 4G Android Development] skytechja:
ok. in the aroma installation...

did u use faux kernel 1.45, alternative, or stock ?

i used 1.45, ran ok, started having a lil issue, went back n used stock kernel... now things are running very smooth n i have no issues so far.... just had a apn issue which seems to be ok now
[Atrix 4G Android Development] The.Opethian:
First of all, what a SWEET ROM. Excellent stuff. Now the problem.

Mind you, I did do a search but only found one other thread and it was about Facebook not working. If this is already discussed elsewhere, I'm more than happy to read that thread instead.

My device: Motorola Atrix

My Country: UK

My Network: T-Mobile

Upgraded from: CM7.2RC1

My issue is, that after a fresh install, 3G/HSDPA only works for under 30 seconds, and then gets PERMANENTLY disabled. Seriously. Going into the APN settings, it won't even let me save my provider's APN details. Data is disabled and I can only use WiFi.

Oh and the music app is borked. It just force closes when I try to launch it. Almost all my music (various ambient and metal stuff) is encoded in AAC HEv2 stored in a 32GB Class 10 MicroSD. Installing Winamp, and I can listen to my music!

Any assistance that anyone can provide will be most appreciated.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Which version installed? Other options? Restore anything via a backup app like titanium?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] The.Opethian:
Using the latest MIUI linked here. No options other than a clean install. No restoration whatsoever. What's odd is that the phone does connect to the internet, you can see that signal bar change to 3G then to H. And then it disconnects and shows X, and then just the signal bars (no data connection).

I've tried going through each and every setting to see if it's something I've changed but still after every clean wipe and installation via CWM, same thing happens, internet connects for a few seconds, is active, then phone disconnect from network and that's it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Ok....that still doesn't tell me. There are 3 locations that files are uploaded to

1) Jokersax.com

2) Goo.im

3) MIUI.us

Jokersax and Goo.im should be named Aromabase and Options Chooser. These builds were done by me.

MIUI.us is the link in the OP. That was built by Magiman7.

That is what I need to know...what the name of the file is :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Ok....I need you to help me out with something. Someone with service, I need you to tell me what the APN settings are in your phone. Go to settings, Mobile Networks, Access Point Names. I need you to either post or PM me screen shots or complete information of:

1) The APN list screen

2) Each listed APN (click o the APN to get the info). T

This should help me to fix this issue for those of you with disappearing APNs...I hope :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Sweep29:
Hi.

This is for Th3Bill & The.Opethian.

It may sound strange but I had a similar issue to The.Opethian's (no 3g/H) using this ROM and discovered through trial and error that the issue was down to having a SIM CARD PIN security number on the sim. I placed my sim in a friends phone and it asked for the PIN number (where in my MIUI Moto, it didnt).

Once I removed the PIN and replaced my sim back into my Moto, i obtained full service from 3G/H.

Sounds wierd I know but it cured the problem, ie no PIN code.

What do you think?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
I have heard this as well...you could try this guys....flash gb based blur rom, disable the pin in security menu then flash this rom
[Atrix 4G Android Development] skytechja:
well after the installation. the only APN in my list is from Verizon which i dont use. I actually go ahead and create another one.

settings are as follows:

Name - any name

APN - ppinternet

Proxy - not set

Port - not set

username - not set

Password - not set

Server - not set

MMSC - not set

MMS Port - not set

MCC - 310

MNC - 004

Authentication Type - PAP or CHAP

APN Type - IPV4/IPV6

APN Protocol

Bearer

thats what work for me....

Mine is the same as yours, but I've never had the problem. I flashed the latest non-Aroma version over the previous non-Aroma version. I wiped before the previous, but no wipe before the latest.

..................
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ATRIXXIRTA:
So if someone setup a sim lock while on stock, or blur-based roms, is that whats causing the apn issue? I personally have never had an issue with apn loss, but I've also never set a lock on my sim either.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Danikin:
great, finally a sacred data fix :p

---------- Post added at 10:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:40 PM ----------

lol :P
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
I have a feeling this is the case. SIMs that require a PIN will apparently have issues with this. I've done some searching, and it seems to be Dormancy that is causing the SIM to suddenly not be seen by the phone any longer. Most people who are describing losing data do so when the phone goes to sleep. Try this guys....do a new install, then delete the FastDormancy.apk that is in the /system/app drawer....let your phone go to idle and see if after 5 or 10 mins you still have service. I'm thinking that might be the issue, as FastDormancy is not in the other MIUI Phone builds that I have seen.

Let me know.

If it's not that, it most likely is that your SIM card has a lock on it and needs to be set to not have a pin before flashing MIUI.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Danikin:
i never has a pin but i still have the issue, later i´ll try deleting the apk
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
The logcat that I was sent by dfirefly shows the phone go to sleep, then when it wakes up, suddenly seems to have issues with being able to see the SIM card. I'm positive it's the Fast Dormancy. Just deleting it in the ROM may not fix it if you already lost service...you would need to delete it while you have service to prevent the recurrence...this is theory
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Danikin:
ok, then we have to Reboot -> activate data -> delete the apk

i'll try but in my case the issue have a very random behaviour, i think i´ll need a day or something to test
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ATRIXXIRTA:
Fingers Crossed!

Dont have this problem...but still! lol
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Well, any feedback I can get is gravy :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] dfirefly:
On Joker's latest CM9, FastDormancy is there and the APN seems fine. No matter, will test your theory and report back.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
OR TRY THIS:

Go into the Monitor app. From default, it is set to a 50MB limit of data. You can increase this by clicking on that 2G/3G spot, then disable the section that says "Turn off automatically". This setting will disable your data whenever your phone gets over that set amount of data mentioned above. Not sure if this will fix the issue. Just noticed this part this morning :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Maringer:
Though I'm currently using 2.5.11 (your last release before the APN issue appeared), I'm pretty sure that I tried one of the later versions and disabled the data limit yet still encountered the disappearing APN. For me, the problem always used to appear 6-8 hours after boot, regardless of the amount of data used in this period.

I'm still thinking the problem lies in Joker's changes to his CM9 base.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Danikin:
i never turned on this option :p

i noticed something, when the phone came back from the sleep the "signal bar" goes off "the bar with a little X" and then came back to normal. i think this is what u mean when u say that "the SIM to suddenly not be seen by the phone any longer"

now i am deleting the apk, crossing fingers XD

---------- Post added at 09:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:33 AM ----------

FastDormancy.apk deleted , and ready to go Xd
[Atrix 4G Android Development] phrozenwire:
Fast Dormancy APK

Deleted the Fast Dormancy APK file when the data connection was active on my phone. This time the data connectivity stayed active for a longer duration than earlier but still the issue persists. The APN loses its settings.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
If you have Titanium, try freezing the Dormancy process. That is something that a couple people on the Photon thread have done to correct the issue on CM9 there.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Can you upload me that rom zip? I lost it on my pc when I changed over linux distros. Thanks
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Danikin:
no APN data loss issue so far..... i keep testing :p
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Ok...first issue identified...kernels are in the Options Chooser. Aromabase is just that...a base rom. I don't have the options in Aromabase, as I wanted to keep the zip file smaller.

Second issue...this may be MIUI specific...you need to diable your PIN number for your SIM before you flash it...I think. I do not own an Atrix or use GSM, so I may be incorrect there...perhaps someone can give some feedback on that one...please anyone?

Third issue...you can't special wipe from any other rom besides MIUI to MIUI. Special Wipe retains app data, but due to the fact that I designed it for MIUI (It removes MIUI system app data, but will not remove other ROMs system data) , it will leave data from CM9/AOKP apps that are NOT compatible with MIUI and try to force that data into the MIUI apps, causing FCs. Unfortunately, MIUI is TOTALLY different fom CM9. Roms like AOKP, CNA, and many of the other CM9 derivatives which use modified SystemUIs and frameworks, but are almost fully compatible with CM9 apps. MIUI is not compatible with MOST stock CM9 apps, as they do HEAVY modification to almost every app in the system.

MIUI Home may be laggy due to using a kernel that has not been updated in 3 months (and there have been at least 4 newer releases of Android since).

If you want to get a good idea of how this works, Back up your necessary apps you want (NOT Contacts, MMS, Phone, Camera, Settings or any other ROM specific apps....it will bork) with Titanium or similar backup service, then do a full wipe flash of MIUI, re-download your apps from the market (I know it sucks, but restoring them from Titanium may restore them with them configured for the other ROM), then restore your data to the newly installed apps.

Special Wipe is only for MIUI to MIUI at this time. I think I need to identify that better in the installer.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
I think you need to flash back to a ROM where you have the ability to disable the PIN on your Sim card, then flash the MIUI, then I believe it will allow you to enable the Pin number...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Maringer:
I'll look to send it to you when I get home from work.

I know that I've got it stored on my Internal phone memory if not on my home PC.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Yes...if you want to take the time to do it, install AOKP and go to /data/data directory. Type me out all of the folder names you see that are NOT com.google or com.android. I can then make it work a bit better....it still isn't recommended to use it between roms, but it would make it so that it could be APPLIED to each rom and work.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
Seems to be on both. Not sure. I am going to ask MIUI.us devs if they know what the issue is, as it seems that any PIN based Sims don't fully work without doing that process first. Let me know how it goes :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
awesome! With that, I can see if I can track down this bug....it's going to be tough, as we have changed Android versions TWICE since that release...LOL
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
I will agree with you there that it is very quirky. I'm considering modifying the ramdisk to have the phone load the internal memory (EMMC) to /sdcard/internal. This way, both storages should theoretically be accessible to the apps in the system simultaneously. What do you all think?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Th3Bill:
It IS doable. I have even been in the section of the init files where that is set. I've previously had to edit the kernel of this rom to make it so that we could adb logcat it.

Reason for the sdcard as part of the mount is that the apps in MIUI for some reason default to sdcard. If I change that part of the name, it might not see them at all without me having to edit every app on every build...not something I'm jumping for joy to try to do at this time... :(
