I would like to ask all your opinion what is the best ROM that you can recommend to me to get the best signal that i can use on my atrix 2. Right now im using stocks 2.3.6. And from time to time i loss my phone signal. Thanks
[Motorola Atrix 2] daavvis:
I live near canada and have the same issue always..... my phone loves rogers wireless...... lol

The best ive seen are the recently updated indian roms... i still loose signal and roam a lot but less often...

At&t and i are currently butting heads about this right now, only cause my gf is verizonand doesnt have this problem.... lol

[Motorola Atrix 2] Jsteele32:
I am using Sonya v4 and I get stable signal with AT&T where my wife's IPhone only is very patchy. Might be something to try it is a very solid rom and great performance and the dev is awesome.
[Motorola Atrix 2] ryuben2k:
Thanks for the help. I'll try it later.
[Motorola Atrix 2] ryuben2k:
Can you teach mo how to set up, because this will be my first time to do it. Thanks
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Have you already rooted? Lithium v1.2.1 is the rom I'm running currently. I like its look and feel. Its using Milestone Overclock to 1100MHz (but I've ramped it up to run 1250MHz stable) and has been de-bloated to a point I'm happy with.

As for signal, AT&T is and has IMO always been sketchy. I live in a 4G LTE area but my in my neighborhood I get one bar. Have to switch to Wi-Fi while at home. Not sure that a rom's radio build has anything to do with available signal strength from towers.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jspugh:
victory rom has worked well for me, but now flashed back to stock 2.3.6. tried the "stock monster" (2.3.6 MB865 ROMULUS) too and worked great! now to 2.3.6 yet again to await ics.
[Motorola Atrix 2] ryuben2k:
Yes,my atrix 2 is rooted. I already install boostrap on my phone and i dont know what to do next. Before i can install rom do i really need to install cwnonboot global-j.y.daddy or can i go directly installing custom rom?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Because of the locked bootloader on the A2 the CWM Recovery is the current workaround.
[Motorola Atrix 2] ryuben2k:
How will i start installing custom rom?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Once you have installed CWM Recovery, just find a rom in the development section threads (titled "[ROM] Whatever" ) and read the install directions. Some are recoveries, others are install zip from sdcard.
[Motorola Atrix 2] ryuben2k:
Just want to clarify if CWM Recovery is the bootsrap?because i saw one in the video(youtube) that he install j.ydaddy also beforw he load the custom rom.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
The ATRIX 2 Bootstrapper is the bootstrap, and the CWMOnBoot-Global-J.Y.Daddy.zip is the Clockworkmod Recovery used to flash/restore roms. If you're watching Mastermind278's YouTube videos, they're pretty easy to follow.

So, if you've already rooted, installed superuser, and the ATRIX 2 Bootstrapper, you need to do this:

From "My Files" on your device, scroll down to find the ATRIX 2 Bootstrapper.apk and click to install (if not done already).

Next, open the ATRIX 2 Bootstrapper. Superuser will ask to allow ATRIX 2 Bootstrapper for permissions, give it!

Click the 1st button, then the 2nd button.

Now, the ATRIX 2 Bootstrapper should boot you into recovery, where you need to INSTALL ZIP FROM SDCARD the CWMOnBoot-Global-J.Y.Daddy.zip.

This will install the CWM recovery on your device.

When done, reboot system.

Now, your device should boot into Android. From there, navigate back to superuser and DENY the ATRIX 2 Bootstrapper permissions! (THIS IS IMPORTANT TO GET THE CWM RECOVERY TO BOOT EACH TIME YOU EITHER REBOOT OR POWER ON!)

Should be good from there. Now you can find a rom you like and follow the install instructions on the thread for that rom

Hope this helps....
[Motorola Atrix 2] ryuben2k:
Thanks for the reply. I followed the instruction what mastermind post in youtube. I installed the boostrapper and boot into recovery and when im about to install the CWMOnboot-Global by j.y.daddy, i can't find it, what do you think is the problem.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Find the link for the CWMOnboot-Global by j.y.daddy.zip, download it to your computer. Make sure USB DEBUGGING is enabled AND the UNKNOWN SOURCES boxes are checked. Then move the zip from your computer to root of SDCARD.

Make sure your USB setting is for MASS STORAGE.

After you copy the zip, select CHARGE ONLY in USB SETTINGS.

Now, in doing that, when you open the ATRIX 2 Bootstrapper recovery, you can choose the "install zip from sdcard" option to install the CWMOnboot-Global by j.y.daddy.zip.

This will install the needed Clockworkmod Recovery.
[Motorola Atrix 2] daavvis:
You should be using rdavict's cwm on boot.... it doesnt break gps
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
I haven't experienced any GPS issues with the CWMOnboot-Global by j.y.daddy.zip. At least not that I can notice.

<<<<<<<ROM PROPERTIES - DIFFERENCES>>>>>>>

SLIM_RYDER

This is the base ROM for all three. This is about as slim as Froyo can get. I removed Touchwiz and replace a lot of apps to reduce the size. Experienced users can flah this and add anything to suit their needs. Even Google backup transport removed.

FAT_RYDER

This is Slim_Ryder with a few system + user apps added. This is what used to be Slim-Ryder + the app pack. Touchwiz still gone but a few other apps added. I reskinned a music app as "Ryder Music" for kicks.

FAT_RYDER INCLUDES:

Cpuspy

Gpstest

Voltage Control

Download All

Galaxy Tuner

Root Browser free

Rom Manager

Mx Video Player

NEW SYSTEM apps in App pack:

ROAD_KING

This is the full featured ROM based of Slim_Ryder. Touchwiz is reintroduced. Some of the smaller Slim_Ryder apps are fully replaced (IE: AOSP Calendar for TWcalendar). Also a few of the stock apps are added like Memo and My Diary. Also this ROM has the FFC files added so those who have a FFC can test it out. Road King comes with TW3, TW4, and HOLO launchers. This ROM was so packed I had issues keeping it under 200mb (most upload site have a 200mb limit). I ran this ROM for about 4 days and battery life was good and it was very smooth.

Also Road_King has had the FFC files installed so if I could have someone with a FFC test it Id be grateful.

***INFO AND SUGGESTIONS***

With a few people asking how I got the most out of GPS on this rom here is the steps I take to get 9 locks in my basement. btw: I have an original T959 with the hardware fix applied.

After the ROM is settled here are my steps:

Download GPS Aids FREE and start it up

You will see "We need your attention" and ask for money. Hit "Read More" and then hit the back button on your phone

Select device > Galaxy S (XTRA / LTO)

Hit "Start Setup"

Allow Root

Click next

It will try to download both - LTO will work but XTRA will fail - its normal

Hit Finish

Visit Google+ if you want (I hit no)

Click "Download GPS Aiding Data"

Once its done downloading (and tell you XTRA failed) just close the program

IMPORTANT: After doing this Im not sure why but it will mess up your NTP server. My next steps fix that

Next:

Open SGS TOOLS app

Get thru the startup screens

Select the bottom "Gps Fix" The north-american one works for me

Hit Apply

Allow root if needed

Now click "Secret Codes" at the top then "GPS-Test and settings.."

Here is some trail and error on what works for you.

Application Settings

Operation Mode> Switch to either "MS Based" or "MS Assisted" (I use based)

SUPL/CP Settings:

Three choices here that can be used -

www.spirent-lcs.com

port: 7275

or

supl.google.com

port: 7276

or (what I use)

supl.sonyericsson.com

port: 7275

Given each a try - remember to reboot between each.

Back out of the app and reboot and test it out.

Although we have themed dialer and contacts you may want to try out exDialer & Contacts from the Google Play market. I also download and use the exDailer dark theme
[Vibrant Android Development] corpsetomb:
Great job Moped! I just flashed bionix but dl'ing now!

I just want to verify, we can flash both gapps and app_pack right after install, or anytime after that as well, correct? I figured its just a zip with the apk's in it.

Thanks for all the help!

Edit: Swweeetttt boot screen!
[Vibrant Android Development] john9:
Looks pretty cool to me..Excellent work.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Nice... very nice!
[Vibrant Android Development] Moped_Ryder:
Yes you can flash all three then boot.
[Vibrant Android Development] corpsetomb:
One thing I've noticed, I can't get any ringtones or notification sounds to play from Zedge. It could possibly be their servers, but their wallpapers and everything else comes up fine.

Edit: I also use BeWeather and the animations aren't playing because of the beats.audio video player bug. Is there a way to go back to voodoo?
[Vibrant Android Development] Moped_Ryder:
I didnt add beats audio to the rom to save space. I could try and upload a "no-wipe" version that should remove it.
[Vibrant Android Development] corpsetomb:
Ok, I didn't add it either, unless it's added with the apps_pack. Any idea why video player wouldn't work?

Also, how do you assign the search key to search? Right now it doesn't do anything.

A million thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] Moped_Ryder:
Odd - I installed beats audio and zedge works fine for me. Im going to download the base rom again and flash to test myself.
[Vibrant Android Development] corpsetomb:
Thank you!
[Vibrant Android Development] Moped_Ryder:
Ok I see what you are talking about.

Flashed just base ROM

--Video player no work

--Sound from zedge no work

Flashed App pack and updated mx player

--Stock video player no work

--sound from zedge no work

Flashed beats audio with Gapps pack

-Everything worked.

I think beats audio needs to be flashed to provide the correct drivers / libs. Its in the 2nd post. I will test now.
[Vibrant Android Development] Moped_Ryder:
Beats audio is required. I stripped so much out to get it small it wont play files.

I will add beats audio to it and upload version 2. If you installed the original just flash beats audio in 2nd post.
[Vibrant Android Development] Moped_Ryder:
OP links updated with v2 fixing video / audio

thanks corpsetomb for pointing it out!
[Vibrant Android Development] Moped_Ryder:
Works for me - did you add google search app? That might be it.
[Vibrant Android Development] corpsetomb:
I did, but still when I press the hotkey it doesn't do anything. Hmmm. I am going to flash beats and see if miraculously that fixes it.

- And you are very welcome! Glad I could help!
[Vibrant Android Development] Moped_Ryder:
Possible market issue:

If you boot and the market doesnt show your apps that you bought as purchased try this:

Method #1

Try and reflash just the base rom and log into Play store and check - then flash the Gapps or app pack.

Method #2

Settings>Applications>Manage applications>Google Play Store>Clear data

Reboot

Open up TB and select menu>Market Tools>Marker Doctor>User&System apps

Reboot

wait a few and should be fixed
[Vibrant Android Development] LoGiK915:
Noticed the same but if you long press the search key it gives option to assign an app. I assigned voice search now a single press of the search key opens voice search.

Great Rom Ryder. Flashed the base,gapps, and app pack. After boot flashed WiFi apk and precision theme. Everything works as it should. Great job.

Edit* Have to long press search key to open voice search after assigning the app, not single press. But it still works.
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] xm2406:
something i interfering with my screen when i use my cell during charging!

i mean if i hit the "A" button on the keyboard, some other keys also get pressed, this happens only during charging... if m trying to zoom, d pic changes or option popup comes out!

EVERYTHING IS MESSED UP!

Had to disconnect my charger when writting this !!!

ANYBODY HAVE AN IDEA WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING TO MY SCREEN?!!?
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] a.cid:
Capacitative touch screens work by transferring a small amount of charge to the users fingers...

So maybe while charging, there are some dust particles which take up some charge, hence fooling your phone to believe that it was your finger...

Wipe your screen with a damp (NOT wet) cloth...and then again try...

Typed using a small touchscreen
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Harpratap:
lol NO, that is lame! :p touchscreen manufactures are smart enough to eradicate such possibilties.. if you are right then why does this happen only during charging? charged particles are evrywhere in atmosphere!

xm2406: consider professional help...
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] a.cid:
I suggested that as sometimes it does happen with me...

Only during charging, since the voltage is more fluctuating during charging...

Idk maybe I'm wrong, no expert here...

Sante madre de dios!

I have no idea why is it happening during charging only >.<

dumbass samsung closed their service center here -_-
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] dheeraj (dhlalit11):
it is happening by the amount of voltage the mobile getting while charging with some specific method

like while charging with my own PC I don't get this problem but when I charge my mobile with my brother's PC I get the touch problem

so change the charger or the PC by which your charging
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] samo_gf:
Yes happened while connected to USB :D
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] xm2406:
oh well thanx a lot bro :)

gonna change the charger then :d

I don't think so it would be a charger problem if you are using the samsung (genuine) charger. Try charging at some other ports. :)

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bones420la:
okay...my girlfriend has a nexus s4g its on ics..

whats the most stable rom/kernel combos?

ive seen alot of ics roms.. but i cant really decide on which i like best.. id like to try out all of them... but she would probably kill me if i had her phone for that long..

also i know when i unlock the bootloader it wipes everything... if i was to flash a different rom on the phone would it wipe the storage space too? or does it work like a sdcard in a normal phone when flashing a rom?

**if only my lg spectrum had this much developer support:(
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wmdunn:
First of all, if done properly, flashing a new rom will not disturb the contents of the memory card. As for which rom ... if she likes ICS and is used to a stock rom, then I would put Peter Alfonso's Bugless Beast on her Nexus 4g. I put one of Pete's roms on my wife's phone, and she loves it. It's stable and she is not fond of change. It is however, his final Gingerbread rom ... stable, quick, very stock-like, and good on battery. Be sure to do a little reading before launching into modifying. It might save you some frustration. Good luck!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spookyneo:
Flashing a ROM should not impact the sdcard. However, unlocking the device will wipe the sdcard if I remember correctly. The issue with the Nexus S (either 3G or 4G), is that the 16GB storage is internal...no way to remove it unfortunately. Backup everything on your computer and you'll be fine.

As far as choosing a good ROM...mine is Cyanogenmod 9 Nightlies with Matr1x 19.5 CFS kernel. The Matr1x kernel makes all the difference if you want my honest opinion...it is very, very stable and there are load of features. Many people don't like CM9 because it is not released as stable yet...but it is very stable. I've been using it for daily use since March.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TigaTiger:
Try what the people ontop said. If you still dont really trust it (even though its true facts) just copy your sd card to your computer.. done.

Now if you want to go to a custom rom. I suggest CM9 and matrix v19.5 or v20. Its one of the best mixes out there to give performance and battery.

after flashing the new rom i have to reinstall and reconfigure all the apps right?

do i have to manually remove the one installed on the sd card?

can i create a backup image to restore the phone as it is now?

thanks in advance if someone will answer these silly questions :)
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] djbjpanchal:
Yes you should backup all your apps before a new rom. For that you should use titanium backup application(keep the apk file of it app in ur sd card). Backup all your apps using the batch backup option in the app. Then after installing new rom just install titanium backup app and restore all your apps. And about contacts,copy all your contacts to sim.:)
