I am not planning on it - the changes to the ramdisk and all the sepolicy stuff in 4.3 would make it more trouble than it's worth in my opinion. Plus, you want the screen tearing and other stock kernel issues back?

I have basically given up on battery life with my phone (it's pathetic), and carry a USB with me for charging throughout the day... Not all A2's and/or batteries were created equal..
[Motorola Atrix 2] unsivil_audio:
Altered, I couldn't agree more. I finally bit the bullet and ordered a new battery. I'm thinking this one (which is over 2 years old) is just showing its age. I can get about 10 hours if I push it to the max, with moderate usage; sometimes as few as 6 hours though.
[Motorola Atrix 2] SMONDAL84:
Currently running the latest JBX on PA RC1. It is buttery smooth and battery life seem good as well. No hot reboots or any black screen issues so far. After trying out quite a FEW ROMs, this combination seems to be the best so far!

How much battery do u get ?? I disable my data , Put brightness low , put my mobile on FLIGHT mode when battery was 100 % after 6 hours , battery was 83 . % ...
[Motorola Atrix 2] atrix2man:
Thats good battery to me
[Motorola Atrix 2] SMONDAL84:
After close to 2 years, my battery is not exactly in its prime! So it would not be fair to keep my battery performance as benchmark. However, I generally do get my battery to last through the day before I get home from work. That would be close to 15-16 hours with moderately heavy use - calls, browsing, social networking apps, corporate email sync, occasional 3g, 3-4 hours of wifi and also flash any update that Altered publishes!

JBX 1.3 with PA RC2

Thanks Altered :good:

Any comments on jbx 1.3 with PA RC2 - performance, quirks etc??
[Motorola Atrix 2] SMONDAL84:
Absolutely super performance with the JBX. Excellent battery life too. A small bug with Bluetooth headsets causing hard reboots, but that is probably due to JBX and can be worked around.
[Motorola Atrix 2] eviljonny1:
I created partitions on System 3 and installed the ROM and Gapps zips. Rebooted to System 3 from Recovery but then it went right into System 1? It shows PA as installed on system 3 but it keeps boot looping with the message below:

"Boot script begin"

"Insecure adb"

"switch system partition"

"kexec boot"

"convert root fs files"
[Motorola Atrix 2] atrix2man:
I put 500mb for each partition. Its good enough for me.
[Motorola Atrix 2] eviljonny1:
Thank you. I don't know why I cannot boot into system 3. Do I need to wipe again after creating the partitions? Here is what I did:

1. Root on 4.0.4

2. Installed BMM

3. Downloaded ROM and Gapp zips to SDcard

4. Booted into recovery

5. Wiped system, cache and dalvik

6. Created partitions on System3

7. Installed PA ROM and Gapps from ZIP onto system 3

8. Booted to system 3

bootloop.....

Edit: DUH! I did not wipe cache and dalvik after install. I did it before but not after. Booted straight in! Yeeee haaawwww!

WiFi not working. Keeps shutting itself off. whenever I tap "More.." under Data Usage it turns off as well. Rebooted 3 times to no avail. I try to turn it on manually now and it just sits there saying "turning wifi on"
[Motorola Atrix 2] atrix2man:

Call blacklist is not working. No menu option to add calls from log. Have to add to list manually from settings. Icon response is often slow with launching app or making menu selections. And of course WiFi is not working. Other than that this is a great ROM.

Wifi issue resolved via advice from help forum.

Does anyone have a tun.ko for this build (RC2 21st Sep)? I'm actually trying to VPN (Cisco) to my office network - unfortunately the inbuilt VPN doesn't work and VPN Connection force closes.

[Motorola Atrix 2] blazebud350:
I have a doubt... would the WiFi drivers or the appropriate term have any effect on the WiFi reception. Between the unofficial JB leak and PA RC2 the signal strength seems to vary by quite a bit at the exact same spot...

[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Hi. 3 not-so-quick answers:):

1. Not yet. It's not adjustable in-call, and speaker phone may be messed up.. Maybe BT audio also? I have not found a fix, except in the older non-kexec versions..

2. Not that I know of. But good question.. That might have been a Moto Blur feature (?), which doesn't exist in these source built ROMs. But, yea, no HDMI..

3. Et cetera.. ;)

My advice would be to get comfortable with BMM recovery, keep your stock system as System_1 (and make a full backup of it just in case), and try some JB ROMs on System_3... You will be able to see what you are and are not missing..

(My current set up is PA on Sys1, Slim on Sys3, AOKP on Sys4 - I spend the most time on Slim recently)

Also i have a bad battery loss. 25% loss overnight with 3g on, while before i had 4-5%. I have added screenies.

Also even the small games are lagging a little(Xelorians). Previously on miui it was very smooth.

U dont have to freeze dsp manager. And for the game freezing..what kernel u on?

Boot Loop!

So I successfully managed to install PA on system 1 replacing the Unofficial JB.(It was previously on system 3)

I wanted to use BMM manager to change the default to boot to system 1 while trying to do so it said wrong BMM busybox so I tried uninstalling Installing and what not. Basically I removed BMM and tried restoring from Titanium. BUMP BUMP BUMP.It was a stupid thing to do. I realize now.

Now I am stuck at a boot loop. Can I do something about it now???

You will have to fxz im afraid
[Motorola Atrix 2] blazebud350:
Yeah I figured so. But ran into a wall there. Tried to fxz back to the JB leak but during the flash RSD failed while pushing cdt.bin (I think it has something to do with the fact that my CID is messed up, I'm not sure.) Then I used altered's .bat script : "flash back to ICS win" to flash JB. Well alls fine now thanks!!

[Motorola Atrix 2] RAD7:
I really hope the basic essential core bug of in ear call volume which is on the highest by default and also no changes possible in ear call volume whether increased or decreased can be solved as can live with the other bugs but this really affects a lot in daily usage apart from which it is a great ROM. Mentioning this as u/s Kit Kat is being worked upon and this surely needs to be trouble shot.

Since this is not a Nexus or Oppo device, I removed the "official" tag for my PA builds. My decision was sparked by what happened here, and the fact that they are starting over with PA 4.0..

Even though I was given permission by the PA team to call these 3.0+ builds "official", it didn't really mean anything for us.. I have been, and will continue to build and maintain this on my own (using PA's source code, of course).

[Motorola Atrix 2] darksurfr:
This is going to be a strange comment to make but I seem to be the person my friends look to when they are having issues with any Android device and I got myself to the point where I am even rooting and flashing my friend's mother's phone. So Right now she is on PAC 4.3 and its a nightly build because I didn't read to stick with the release build. So anyway there are battery issues with the one I recently flashed onto the main system. There is also issues with the camera and something about the text message mini reply screen that comes down (I am guessing a feature of one of the 3 compiled projects) where the text is white and or something of that nature and its not readable. There is also an issue of the period not working randomly.

ANYWAY. I was wondering if anyone here would have a good recommendation of Rom to flash that a normal person who doesn't mind fooling around with this stuff would put on an A2 with the knowledge that there wouldn't be any major issues (or ones that are easily dealt with) and also have a bit better battery life then the ICS 4.0.4 that the phone WAS on with strange issues to begin with. I am not sure if the JB leak FXZ file would be the best way to go with just a kernel change to JBX or should I Just JB leak FXZ do BMM and put this on system 3?

I was reading through this and I seem to get mixed messages as I go through all of the posts. I usually read about the last 70 posts but I know if I go too far bad I get bad information that was previously fixed and doesn't really apply especially when the thread is including newer versions. I would like to either be on 4.3 (stable solid etc) or just get of ICS as the bare minimum of requirements. I dont know how unbearable this whole in-call volume thing is but I don't have constant access to this phone to keep flashing till I have it where I am happy with the product that I rant about and how I can make the phone better then it was when the cell providers abandoned it.Any replies with some info would be helpful.

BTW she is on T-mobile if it makes any difference. I know that the APNs usually have to be hand entered.

Thanks

Scott

Cannot wipe dalvick cache and stuck on Boot animartion

Hello, Altered. I tried to install this latest build over the last release but I am having issues. First I did a factory reset. Then the installation of the ROM and Gapps which went fine. Next I wiped the cache but when I tried to wipe Dalvik cache there was no "Yes" or "No" prompt. All it does is move the selection up to Factory Reset. I tried to boot anyway and all I see is the boot animation. I let it sit for 5 to 7 minutes boot the system never loads. Any thoughts? Thank you.

Uploaded/mirrored on AFH:

Not sure. But I would probably try again. BMM can be weird sometimes (you are using BMM, right?). Or you could try destroying that ROM slot and starting again.. Otherwise, wipe it all with a fxz and start fresh..

As a note, I typically format the system partition before dirty flashing a ROM update.. And wipe dalvik and cache, of course.
[Motorola Atrix 2] iamezio:
Sometimes i can't make a phone call, it would say call ended even before the phone dials the number, happens also on CM11 , a reboot usually fix this but have no idea what it is , the phone is connected to the network and with stock rom this doesn't happen so i don't think its a hardware problem , any ideas?
[Motorola Atrix 2] eviljonny1:
No joy

I am using BMM. Whe4n you say "try destroying that ROM slot" do you mean booting into Recovery, Settings, selecting the desired system (system 3 is what Iv'e been using for PA) then destroying the System, Data and Cache partitions? I did that and tried to reinstall but agaqin I cannot clear Dalvik cache and when I boot to PA it just shows the new animation. Do I ned to FXZz back if I already have stock 4.0.4 on system 1? I noticed that even after I have destroyed every partition on system 3 it still lists PA as being loaded. Is this why I need to re-FXZ? To blow out everything and end up with stock on system 1 and blank systems 2 - 6? Am I making sense? Sorry if I am not. And thank you.

p.s. Wwhich FXZ file do I use for North America AT&T? The links in this thread are dead

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1396650
[Motorola Atrix 2] minhajlk:
All right, here's what you have do, since you have stock 4.0.4 on system 1 you do not need to FXZ. Just follow the steps here;

Reboot and go to BMM recovery and select settings-->system 3 (in your case)-->destroy-->System/Data/Cache.

Next create system 500MB, Cache 300MB and Data 300MB (or whatever the size you prefer)

Reboot to BMM recovery and select system 3, Wipe Cache/Delvic and Data.

Flash ROM only and reboot.

Once you got your ROM working, reboot to BMM recovery and select system 3 wipe cache and flash GApps.

That's it.
[Motorola Atrix 2] eviljonny1:
Cannot create data partition

I can create the system and cache partitions but when I try to create a data partition it does not show the same progress text as the others. All it says is "Allocating disk space to image file..." And it just sits there.Does the data partition take longer to create? Ive let it sit for 5 minutes and nothing.

*edit: I see what happened. I was trying to create a 2GB Data partition. I guess you cant do that? I wanted a larger data partition because I kept running out of space and then everything slowed down and I'd get reboots.
[Motorola Atrix 2] minhajlk:
Ok, reboot to system 1 and using a root file manager (ROM Toolbox or whatever you prefer) and navigate to /data/clockworkmod/virtual/ and delete all the folders. Reboot to BMM recovery--settings--system 3 and recreate your system/data/cache partitions. Also in your stock system (system 1) check your storage, you should have about 4GB. Good luck.
[Motorola Atrix 2] eviljonny1:
Success!

Thank you!

*Update: Woops. I spoke to soon. I can boot to system 3 and it looks great but when I tried to install Gapps4.4.2 it says, "insufficient storage space available in system partition I created the system partition using 500MB
[Motorola Atrix 2] minhajlk:
That's very strange. I usually flash a modded GApps (I delete a lot of apks from the package). Did you wipe cache before and after flashing the GApps?
[Motorola Atrix 2] eviljonny1:
Got it to work

I started over and increased the system partition size to 1000mb and Gapps installed without issue. Curious as to why I cannot use 2000mb for the data partition when it is listed as an option. Oh well. Thanks again!

I copied some pics and my titanium backup folders from my PC to SD card because I had wiped out the card and reformatted it to avoid any issue but now when I try to launch BMM to change the boot order I get a message "07/03/2013 -v0.3.4 changelogs: - fix auto creation of cache.img". If I click Install it says "wrong BMM Busybox" Then it tells me to uninstall so I click uninstall then it syays "logwrapper is broken......" I have not installed/changed anything except for the files I copied over from my PC. SInce I have stock on system 1 can I just redo the ROM install again after blowing out the partitions?
