[Atrix 4G Android Development] mmontuori:
MROM-Olympus. Custom ROM for the Atrix 4G

This is my attempt to build a stable, complete, and fully functional custom ROM for the Atrix 4G completely built from source code; Atrix-MROM is built on top of Cyanogen ROM latest source code, my branched and modified faux123 kernel, and Motorola proprietary drivers. I recompiled all components to guarantee maximum efficiency and performance. Along the way, I realized that I needed things to work different for the Atrix 4G, so I also made some changes. If you like my work, consider a donation to my cause.

BUILT FROM SOURCE PROOF https://github.com/MROM. Every developer should provide proof that he is building from source.

Atrix-MROM is entirely build from source. You will see the difference when you run it. Just to list a few features:

Boot time in about 10 seconds

Optimum battery life, better than any other ROM I have tested

Quick, responsive

Contains all the most common Atrix tweaks

MIUI Camera for a better picture experience

QuickPic gallery application

While I tried to maintain the main core small, size is not the main focus.

Few user comments:
