I can't swear that it worked on GB because I was still struggling to get everything else working the way I wanted (such as FLAC support). But all other reports seem to be that it stopped working after upgrade to ICS. It's a nuisance, but I can live with it.

I'll let you know if I find something that works!

IT WORKED! Thanks so much! I would hug you if I could!

Didn't need any extra apps, just Holo Locker. Don't know why it doesn't get caught in the screen-off unresponsiveness, but it doesn't and my music player (MortPlayer, which I love for the way it handles Music/Audiobooks separately) responded as it should.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Glad we could help to get it all sorted out... :beer::thumbup:

[Motorola Atrix 2] scampbll:
Doh! The Holo Locker fix reminded me that MortPlayer has a built-in lockscreen replacement (something to do with lockscreen control incompatibility in older phones). Turns out it has the same effect as Holo Locker.

I might stick with Holo Locker because it's cool in itself, though.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Cool man, thanks for checking everything out and letting us know. Interesting that Mort had the 'fix' all along, this should help others in the future -assuming they read this thread... :D

The Android Media Process is likely some media application that is either waking up the phone with a wakelock by trying to fetch more ads for itself or by trying to read the sdcard. Use Ad-Away (if you're not already) and go through all your media apps to see which are running background processes. Kinteractiveup sounds like something related to the interactive governor. I saw you had done some overclocking, so might try looking at the governor settings and use ondemand or something similar, that way high CPU loads are only called when needed...

Here's something I found:

So, not sure what's causing it, unless it's from waking the device yourself or a script (possibly the OC script you may be using now) that's causing these. I don't know that I'd worry too much about them, if they're aren't using that much of your battery. Hunting down wakelocks can he a huge PIA, so be careful and try not to get carried away... ;)

Yeah, it can really start to consume you if you try to hunt down all active wakelocks. There's just so many, and tracking them all down can really eat into valuable beer drinking time. lol But, I may re-vamp my "wakelocks explained" portion of this guide to add more, and give an additional 'to freak or not to freak' bullet along with each. This will take time though, but would be nice for the community...
[Motorola Atrix 2] Axis_Drummer:
Yea that'd be awesome. And well, I be damned if it cuts into my time ;)

But when you get that put up, I'll definitely look over it. Just to learn more. :thumbup:

Cool man, let me know what you find out. I'm about to do the same with my SGSIII -re-flashing Slim Bean and a new flashable inverted gapps package. I have another guide in the works to finish up, but time is my enemy. Also, try Better Battery Stats (from Google Play or here on xda for the 'free version') and it will show you a lot of the wakelocks and has a nice widget inclusive to the app. I use it, and like it...
[Motorola Atrix 2] Axis_Drummer:
Speaking of inverted gapps, do you happen to know how to do that? Or perhaps a guide I could follow to learn?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
It's a grudge match against your time and patience and editing loads of .xml files. I think there's a guide on it somewhere, just got to locate it. There's JB inverted gapps .zips out there that work well, and I've used them on the A2 before without problem. I can link you, if you're interested...

Ok so I've searched and searched but to no avail. My problem is that i was on cm10 but none of my docks were working ( labdock and car dock) so i for some reason flashed fxz for 4.0.4. Instead of the ics leak one. Still no dock so i added the dock file from the 3.2.5 fxz and added the line in the xml still nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Root Problems.

Finally got the ok from my girl to put a new rom on her phone. Put cm7 on her Atrix 4G relatively easy. This phone however is not wanting to cooperate. I downloaded a2_ics_root, unzipped, and ran from pc with phone plugged in usb. daemon started successfully. then nothing. then i thought maybe its because she got the ota update for ics. so tried to install Blur_Version.55.13.25.MB865.ATT.en.US.zip with stock recovery per jimbridgman's instructions. did not install correctly, installation aborted. phone connects to pc fine because i was able to backup her files. i gotta be missing somethin. help me please. once i manage to root i plan to download bootmenu so that i can install scv7 since it is the only ics rom i saw (and i cant flash back to gb because the bl's are locked, right?) also it is important that her lapdock for her 4g (flipped ports) still works, so let me know if im barking up the wrong tree.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Axis_Drummer:
So was you on ICS prior to your root attempt? Also if you was on official ICS OTA, you can't use Jim's leak, therefore you can't fxz back to GB.

Edit: Also if you are on official OTA ICS, there are official firmware packages (fxz) that you can use. But first, check to see that unknown sources and android(USB) debugging are check before trying to root. If that doesn't work, try the dreaded FDR. If that does no good, that's when I'd try the fxz. But try those things first.

[Motorola Atrix 2] twinlakesnake:
She just recently got the ota update. Now she hates her phone. I think a lot of it has to do with her having apps on SD card. I've read ics doesn't play so well with that. But I thought I'd take advantage. I did make sure that both unknown sources and USB debugging were checked. I've searched for 3 days on this and seems most posts are regarding gb. I don't mind reading and learning if you could help me with some links to point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it. I went straight to the noob section and looked up all I could but I'm kinda lost
[Motorola Atrix 2] Axis_Drummer:
Ok have you tried a factory data reset? If that didn't work either then you'll want to download this file and run it through RSD lite. If you read the "How to FXZ" section of the beginners guide then it'll be easy going from there. But feel free to PM me if you need more help although I think you should be good to go.

Just remember, charge the phone 100% before doing the process, boot into fastboot (while phone is powered off, hold power button and volume down at the same time) and plug in via USB, once connected, hit start and wait until it says pass in RSD before unplugging the phone from USB.

Once finished, try rooting again, and if its a success, you can then grab bootmenu, install hijack and packages, then install SCv7.

Downgrade from ICS to GB

Hi,

Im new to this forum plz do help me.

I have upgraded my Atrix2 to Official ICS 4.04, now i want to downgrade it to GB 2.3. Is it possible...?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Well, now that we have an official release of the FXZ used to flash back to sock ICS for intentional and US versions of ICS, unless you're on the 1st leak, you're likely unable to revert back to GB. I think there is some convoluted instructional in the dev forum to get back to GB from official ICS, but not sure that it works across all the variations of the device. Why are you trying to get back to GB, if I may ask?

getting somewhere now. tried fdr, then root, no help. downloaded rsd lite 5.6. tried download from op u sent, its down, luckily a dropbox on page 7 i think. thought it was prerooted but i guess i was mistaken. root.bat did its thing this time though. got bootmenu, installed hijack and packages. i would like to make some sort of backup at this point, tho boot menu doesnt seem to have an easy way to do this. seeems like time for a nandroid backup but im used to playing on my g-note. should i just take a leap of faith or am i missing something? Also, is scv7 the only gb rom? Sorry for asking so many dumb questions, ive flashed roms on a half dozen phones but these motorolas are another beast entirely
[Motorola Atrix 2] Axis_Drummer:
Yea you'll want to make a back up. You can just do a quick back up though, will work just fine.

Oh and SCv7 is an ICS ROM lol, and there are actually a few ICS based ROMs in the development section. I recommend you look at all of them to make your decision. And don't worry about all the questions :beer: I'm here to help in any way I can bro.

Yes you can do a full backup with bootmenu. Just do the other backup that isn't quick :p it'll backup your webtop. And yea, you don't want to install two custom recoveries. Just one. But with each ROM it could be different. However the bootstrap works for all ROMs I believe.

After fiddling with my new Razr M, I got it to work with US and DE T-mobile =)

Now that I kind of understand the Motorola world coming from the EvilApple world, My girl decided to bite the bullet also and switch.

I got her a used ATRIX 2 though its locked to AT&T which is a GSM carrier. We trying to get it work with DE O2 and US Simple Mobile.

3 Questions I have.

-What are my option of unlocking this phone ? Do I have to go through some service or can turn something on in the Firmware S-On or Radio-On ?

-If only possible way is going through a Unlock code that is being bought, will that code only work on one SIM card or will the phone be Perma Unlocked to any SIM ?

-After playing with the phone I started to see stuck pixel =( its White Green Yellow and shows on red black and blue background ...

I tried the 30min Display fix, is there any other way to fix this or i have to buy an LCD screen for this ?

Thanks and appreciate the help.

I am new to Motorola but not completely new to the scene, I am willing to do heavy hard flashing and so on. Mac and PC available to access root.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Axis_Drummer:
You'll have to get an unlock code either through eBay or AT&T. It shouldn't limit you to any sim, in fact you should be able to use any sim once unlocked.

As for the dead pixels, this has happened to some members and has subsequently fixed itself for no reason lol. So if its not fixed within a few days, a new screen is in order. There's a guide on how to replace the LCD screen here…

Let me know if this helps..

Thanks yeah that's made things clear.

Now that i know, The code will be bought for few bucks =)

The phone is on 2.3 or something.

I been reading through all the ROMs ad ICS Files. But I have not seen a Slimmed down ICS posted by any anyone.We want to stay somewhat stock but don't want all the bloatware that comes with ICS.

Getting rid of them on my RAZR M was not advised. My older HTC back then it was, I had to just freeze them or disable them on my Razr M.

Is this the same on the Atrix that removing the Stock application is not advised and we should just live with it and Disable/Freeze them ?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Axis_Drummer:
If you decide to go with ICS, SwiftyTrix is De-bloated, and is also basically as close to stock as you can get without all the bloatware. Plus its got extras :D

Just update to ICS, root the device, install a custom recovery, and flash.

You can update to ICS leak1 or OTA to official ICS. Read up on the threads and you'll find everything you need.

And I know there's a list of bloatware you can freeze, but you'll have to search for it, I'm eating dinner atm.

By the way Happy Thanksgiving man :)

Awesome thanks again !!! =)

I have gotten my Girl's Atrix 2 Unlocked for any carrier =) was cheap online.

We tried the De-Bloated ICS, but even for me it was a bit confusing.

We are coming from simple HalfEatenApple world so having Multiple Loaders was confusing us.

(Yeah I know easy to get used to, it will take some time for me and her LOL)

Got some one kind of explain it to me, i still don't get his logic.

To me loaders are like Skins that you can change and so on ?

But it runs a little bit deeper in the system since it doesn't just change the skin but how some functions operate ?

So I just Flashed the stock ICS on there, rooted and Disabled all the junk we didn't need from AT&T.

Then i had to go flash the 48 Language pack ontop of this ICS rooted.

After that i decided to give her my Circle Widgets from my Razr M that she liked.

So now she is running Stock International ICS with Razr M Circle Widget rooted =)

Next is replacing the LCD with the Dead Pixel that won't resurrect.

Any tips on this ? I just ordered a new LCD waiting for it to arrive.

I dont other LCDs before, it looks simple but any tips on what to watch out maybe ?
