Yeah, it turns out I could have just booted into Android Safe-Mode by holding down the menu key (thankfully the Atrix actually has a physical menu key), but it was a fresh install anyway, so I just wiped and reflashed.

Now can anyone tell me why this CM10 ROM makes my phone run so much hotter while it is plugged in? In CM7, the phone would only get warm (battery = ~37°c) when it was plugged in AND the battery was less than 100%, but as soon as it finished charging, it would cool down (~30°c or less). Now in this CM10 rom, the phone/battery temp sensor stays at exactly 37°c when the phone is plugged in, even when the battery is fully charged, and its pretty darn warm.

I certainly hope it isn't trying to overcharge my battery! The battery will have over-charge protection built into it, but I believe it still creates a resistive load even when said protection has been triggered, resulting in wasted power and a hot device.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ravilov:
You do know it's not a CM10 but a CM10.1 ROM (there's a difference) and that it uses a very experimental kernel, right?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] moeburn:
:rolleyes: Yes, I'm aware that it is "CM10.1", and that it uses a very experimental kernel. That doesn't mean I shouldn't point out possible bugs, like the fact that it might be causing the phone to heat up more than a stable kernel.

And I did some research on the "fast dormancy" issue causing the phone to heat up more, and while I haven't yet tried deleting fastdormancy.apk, it shouldn't be the issue, because Bell Canada officially supports fast dormancy on their networks. That, and there haven't been any "secril_fd-interface" kernel wakelocks at all.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ravilov:
OK, just making sure. A lot of people aren't really aware of this.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Voldemort:
1. Honestly I don't know

2. Yes, it works exactly as you said
[Atrix 4G Android Development] palmbeach05:
Has anyone compiled the kernel recently and had an issue with wifi on this ROM?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] atrix4g18:
Which Wi-Fi module are you using?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] palmbeach05:
As far as lib/module goes? The ones that are in this ROM
[Atrix 4G Android Development] andresrivas:
1) Yes, AFAIK, currently all ICS and JB roms has working 3d acceleration, but it isn't rock-solid stable.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] moeburn:
This probably isn't the right place to ask this, but no one ever answered my thread, maybe you guys can help?

My Atrix can't focus the camera any more. I was hoping installing this new ROM over my old CM7-MROM would fix that (since it fixed my broken auto-rotate issue, as well as my broken brightness-setting issue), but even after a fresh wipe/flash of this CM10.1 ROM, I still can't focus. I've tried toggling all the focus settings, even using manual 'touch' focus, but when I touch the screen, it tries to focus, and then flashes a red box.

Is my camera physically broken and I'm screwed, or is there some magic "camera firmware" that can fix it? :fingers-crossed:
[Atrix 4G Android Development] BPinard:
This ROM uses the test kernel. No one who uses this ROM or kernel has a camera that focuses. We need to tough it out and wait for the issue to get resolved.

Gingerbread ROMs don't have this issue, so if the camera is necessary for you to use, you can flash one of those.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] moeburn:
I don't think you understood me. I couldn't get the camera to focus in the Gingerbread ROM either.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] atrix4g18:
Sounds like a hardware issue. There isn't much you can do about that other than replace the part.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schumi0901:
Does this ROM support NTFS or exFat file system?

Thanks
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xinbada007:
No. I've tested.

BTW, to support NTFS, you need a ntfs-3g inside the kernel or rom. But ntfs-3g is very, very, and very slow in terms of writing on ntfs (I've tested on Ubuntu). You also need driver for exFat but I don't know the speed. But I think any non original file system of linux except fat16/32 will perform bad on android anyway.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] quetzalcoatl2435:
exFAT is supposedly faster, but you'll need a licence from Microsoft to implement & use it. So, yeah, I don't think it will be supported any time soon...

[Atrix 4G Android Development] todobarato:
Hello,

my report with the last update date 20-07-2013,

I can says only good :good:, the battery life is better that in last release, I get about 9h, with 2G enabled all the time or wifi. No deep sleep issue. All works smooth and fast, no complain on screen transitions. The general feeling that the phone is hot isn’t more present. The big issue that the phone reboots with some SD-cars was solved. It looks solved too the CPU MHz that was stuck in 300Mhz, but one or 2 times was present, so maybe not solved on 100%.

The only bigger issue is the cell-network disconnect and cannot connect again until phone is rebooted, I was thinking that the issue was coming from one previous releases that I installed from other person that released it before epinter, but after make one clean install the issue was present again.

Thank for the hard work.

Best regards,

Ferenc.

Guys I found temporary fix for network drop. Just register network manually.

Settings>Mobile networks >Network operator

Sent from my MB860
[Atrix 4G Android Development] todobarato:
hello,

I don't think this will help, when the I issue happens, it doest find any networks, the modem is disabled, I get error by try to check available networks. Some thing disable the modem, by reboot it is activated again.

Sent from my MB860
[Atrix 4G Android Development] anupash:
Is the network disconnect like this present in the current 20/07 release? Because the only way to fix it is reboot. I can't turn off the radio when the error occurs
[Atrix 4G Android Development] renoob:
This was what did it for me.

[FIX] For international users with GPS issues

I found the .37 radio had more stablilty on TMobile US.

YMMV, i guess.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] napsterr:
That's it...

it's dead. You can't do nothing.

Like you said... reboot is the only temporary fix.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] txtsd:
I'm using the 7/18/2013 build and I have a problem. Everytime I unplug my phone from USB or charger, it reboots. If I leave my phone alone and let the screen turn off, it reboots over and over until the battery dies. The only way I can prevent it from rebooting is if I constantly touch the screen and prevent the screen from going off.

I've tried with and without FastDormancy.apk

What do?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ravilov:
An obvious first step would be updating to a newer build.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ingelectronico:
Do you have an SD card plugged? If so, try removing it and check if the behavior continues.

Best regards
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Aphador:
I'm using an old build of this rom. Do i have to do a full wipe to install the latest build? Is it advisable?

I would advise it, but I don't believe it is necessary.

[ROM] CM 10.2(Android 4.3) for Atrix (PREVIEW)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] atrix4g18:
In developer options, when I enable "Show surface updates" the screen constantly flashes so it appears solid pink.

On GB it would only flash when an element on the screen was moved (when you scroll, exit an app, etc.), but here, even when completely still, the surface is updating.

I'm not sure if this means anything (there could be a logical explanation), but one would think this might lead to worse battery life.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] BPinard:
Good observation.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] inarush:
Hello Emerson,

Thanks for the effort on delivering nice updated roms to our "old" friend Atrix 4G. Please don't get me wrong, but don't you think focusing on a stable, bugless version of CM10.1 is more useful than sharing the efforts with a new Android 4.3?

Unless, of course, it has so many attractive features that makes the efforts worthy.

Again: don't get me wrong, but this is only my two cents.

Regards,

Thiago.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jcrahul:
i had noticed the same thing when using the "show surface updates" had already told epinter :P btw what is to be done for gapps for 4.3??
[Atrix 4G Android Development] epinter:
Android 4.3 and 4.2.2 don't have significant differences, and the effort to port it to Atrix, it's not that big. Most of the bugs present in 10.2 will be addressed by CM, not in kernel or our device tree. Every bit of development in the kernel will affect ICS, CM-10.1 and CM-10.2.

Even if I have to use some time to solve a bug present in CM that is not specific for Atrix, I prefer to do it, because will help others. Like this: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/46301/

Soon we will have a 10.2 with the same status of 10.1.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ~kyle:
I've tried as you suggested and so far I've not had a network drop. Usually it happens a couple of times a day for me and I've gone about 18 hours so far without a drop.

::fingers crossed::
[Atrix 4G Android Development] douglasroos:
I have noted an issue with the ROM while using Line, i have to put the call on speaker because on the headphone it doesn't work. Any way to fix it? I love this ROM, thanks in advance!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] dcarpenter85:
Nevermind :D
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ~kyle:
Now I've gone over 30 hours and still haven't had a single network drop. :good:
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Drakonas:
Actually, yes...somewhat. I'm using the build that snaker23, a donor for the Kernel Project, posted here. I didn't have time to create a development environment, as I had an IT support job pop up, and my newly upgraded CM10.1 Atrix was having major screen flickering. OMG, I spent 2 hours trying to just get the development options to be accessible, and then I found snaker23's post.

His build includes the fix (it was the purpose of him posting) for the screen flickering. See his post for the source of the fix.

So, to answer your question, yes I am experiencing oddities with the Wi-Fi... Everything works...everything besides Wi-Fi that is. CM9 worked fine, but I can't even turn Wi-Fi on in CM10.1. The switch seems to be greyed out on the main settings menu. Going into the inner Wireless menu, I see that the toggle there is usable, but attempting to turn on the Wi-Fi just churns out a message in the Wifi settings (where the list of wifi ap's/routers should be) that says, "Turning Wi-Fi on". Nothing happens after a minute. I leave the inner Wi-Fi menu to find the toggle in the outermost Settings menu is still greyed out and still turned off as before...

something screwy here. Just...saiyan... :eek:

Edit: WOW, I derped! I derped so bad I could have destroyed (a.k.a. bricked) my phone! Thankfully this didn't. In fact, it's fantastic besides no Wi-Fi! Better battery life, great framerate.

Well, I figured this out when I was looking through the advanced Wi-Fi settings. OMG, why can't I change the country code from Europe to US. Wait a second.... OH SH**!

Well, I guess I'll be compiling my own kernel tonight. :\

Edit: scratch that. Should've figured I'd need a Linux environment. Darn Linux phones... all up in their fancy kernels... Guess I'm heading to my house tomorrow to build one...really was hoping to play around with JB tonight... anyone willing to help out with a baked copy? =3 Probably not a good idea...but still... I hate doing extra work, although I guess the people making the kernel do more...tons more.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Drakonas:
I would try the .36P Radio (make sure it's for your region), and flash it through Recovery. (no need for any wipes, but you may have to install it immediately after a fresh install of the first zip before performing initial boot for best results) Doing so fixed the issue for me. Someone somewhere recommended the .36P radio for Epinter's CM10.1 (within the last 2 weeks) and krystianp's CM9. Whoever recommended this, I am sorry to have not thanked you, but I took hours of digging on someone else's computer, and the tab/history is long gone by now.

Before, I had some unknown radio version that I never had issues with in Gingerbread. CM9 did run much hotter, but it wasn't causing any problems AFAIK.

I only tried the .36P radio with Epinter's latest CM10.1 as of right now (newer 7-20). My phone has currently been screen-off'ed, and not charged for 20 minutes. Phone's temperature feels like it was turned off completely. OH! The screen turned on... CRAP! I forgot it was so beautiful...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Zn7mkUKzN1r8aCIV:
Gem in Trash, Camera Flash in ROM side :)

First of all, Thx. for CM-10.2 on Aug 1 as a Moto X present :)

As you all knew by now that Kernel has already fixed Flash on Camera, yeah it has already

But the performance of the stock camera is still very poor, Fortunately there is a lost GEM found on the ABANDONED section of review.cyanogenmod that FIX it!!!

' Run autofocus prior to taking picture even in continuous AF mode. (Abandoned) ' by 'Danny Baumann'

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/43974/

Just a line fix :) [ I have verified it with my custom rom ]
[Atrix 4G Android Development] andresrivas:
So, you need an working boot.img? Mine works beautifully, but i haven't test bluetooth (wifi works, some data drops because it is the 20 jun build) I attach it from my cwm backup.

I also have the kernel compiled for AtrICS 2.0, but i don't thing it will work on cm9...

Wow! So we need to patch the file with that, compile again and that's it? :D
[Atrix 4G Android Development] epinter:
Nice that you found this. Thanks for sharing.

But from now on, we can't use forks to apply patches. Doesn't matter if the camera or anything else is bad and could be better with a patch or another. We should focus on keep the Atrix working with pure CM code, without additional patches. If we find anything that can make atrix and other phones better with cm, we must try to submit the code to CM.

Why don't you try to submit this patch to CM ?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] epinter:
Btw, on the next build I will keep bcmdhd, that will break wifi tether.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nlabrad:
Sorry if this has been discussed already, there are too many threads to keep track of. What's the status of the notifications? I never knew the actual reason why they were disabled, but has been any advance with that?

That was the only thing missing for a beta in my opinion ( or at least the only thing that made me come back to 2.3).

Thanks, and sorry to bother you.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] epinter:
Notifications ?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nlabrad:
You know, the lack of calls and messages notifications during sleep in the previous release.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] quetzalcoatl2435:
Some IRQ changes related to power management testing.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Drakonas:
So... two questions. Are kernels cross-compatible between regions? It would make sense to me that they would not be. And my Wi-Fi worked with the original 7-20 kernel, but not the one updated from source by someone else (which had a screen flicker fix that I needed).

The second question: Is this the same exact kernel build that is in Epinter's 7-20 release? If it is, then it will not help me, because that kernel build caused screen flickering for me. (major screen flickering... so bad I couldn't even get past the lockscreen most of the time)

I don't feel comfortable trying a kernel from outside of the United States, because I have the AT&T Atrix. I am assuming you are not in the US and you have the Bell or other Atrix.

I will probably just build the kernel myself, now that I have some time, unless I like your answers to these questions. Or, if someone can confirm that kernels can be cross-region compatible, I would be willing to try it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] epinter:
As far as I know, current build don't have problems with calls and notifications in deep sleep. Krystian already solved the bug.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nlabrad:
The one in this thread is free of that bug? Or the one I would get compiling from git?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ~kyle:
The latest from this thread does not have that bug (the 07.20 build).
[Atrix 4G Android Development] andresrivas:
Hum. I also build the latest git commit and i'm running on that just now. Strange thing, it happened to me once, I formated /data, /system and /osh, restore the same backup and it worked... perhaps is a leftover from previous flash...

You could try to revert a few commits back (for a different reason, i reverted to the 20 jun commit and I updated from there) and then go back to the latest

EDIT: For cwm recovery, Im using the old version, 5.0.2.7-atrix5, It has support for /osh and fixing permissions, It has worked fine so far and I haven't faced any issue with the different roms.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Drakonas:
Yeah, I've switched back to 5.0.2.7-atrix5. I hate the interface, but whatever... retried installing... no dice. wooohoo...

I would attempt to compile the kernel, but I can't even get a build environment setup because the linaro.zip keeps churning out errors for me when I extract it, no matter how many times I download it. (p7zip integrity check passes though, which makes me feel uneasy)

[ROM][JB]Liquid Smooth for Atrix

In the "Downloads" section of the OP.

"My latest CWM: V1 as well as Aroma-Prep

[Atrix 4G Android Development] nlabrad:
I'm trying the 20 release. Only with this ROM, when I open titanium backup, it says "this phone ID has changed" it let's me restore the old one, and I do, just in case. What is this ID about?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Drakonas:
My understanding is that the Android ID is something that certain pro apps use to associate your purchase for the app with. Apps that don't use the Play Store for activating pro are definitely using your Android ID for checking to see if your phone is the "same", so to speak.

The Android ID resets to a new ID after a new rom install. It's randomly generated to fit your phone, to my understanding, and two phones cannot have the same ID by natural means. It may be possible to have two phones/tablets using the same ID by using certain apps, but that might bring legal concerns to your virtual doorstep.

Let's just say that if you don't restore your Android ID, some or all of your purchased apps may not work at some point in the future.

Personally, I recommend always making sure your Android ID is the same whenever you are purchasing an app, meaning restore the ID upon every rom install. This will make sure that every app on your Android is associated with your phone/tablet.

Mind you, when you get a new phone/tablet, you the random IDs are different than what you would get on your current device. My understanding is you can't use your purchased apps on one phone, on a new replacement phone. However, I have heard that the ID restore function of Titanium Backup (TiBu) can remedy this. But I warn you, I am not responsible for messing up your devices. If you want to try, make sure you copy everything from internal SD to the Internal SD of your new phone. The "Android" and "Data" folders, specifically, on the SD hold the TiBu backup files, which are checked for when you have a new rom installed. This is how a new install of TiBu knows that your Android ID changed, and how it loads your previous filters from the old rom. Btw, I recommend checking out TiBu's filters if you are changing roms often. They come in handy for fresh installs of different roms, specifically ones that only work with specific apps. (I.E. GB/ICS/JB)

Thanks for this! I didn't know that that rom dev provided an updated recovery! The only problem with the old atrix5 recovery is that it had many inconveniences that didn't make sense to me... This fixes them!

Great info, thanks. Its safe for me to do whatever because I haven't bought any app. I restored it anyway.

Well I haven't had any problems yet. Battery life seems standard. I updated maps to the latest via aptoide, 3g works fine, GPS works fine, WiFi does too, notifications work.

Camera is a bit underpowered so to speak but as far as it works I'm OK with it for now, not a big priority.

As far as it works as a phone and all my communication, navigation and browsing apps work, I can use it.

Very grateful with the devs, I'll keep using it as far as I can.

I noticed this 10.1 version is missing the custom lighting levels fr screen brightness. Is this something that can be added like in v10?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Voldemort:
Glad to hear that you changed the kernel and your problem was solved.

I actually pointed out that link a couple of times to some lost fellows and I thought by now everyone knew about it.

I don't think that kernel helps with battery drain issues though, mine is quite new and it lasts about 13-14 hours while it lasted around 40-48 on CM7.

This is an Italian atrix with the latest radio installed (38p); I'll try some others the next week although I don't think it's a radio issue.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nlabrad:
Ok now i see why is not a beta hah. Is the signal drop right?

After like 4hs of use, the signal just dropped to zero and never came back. Went into airplane mode, out of it, but no luck.

My batt is at 29 already, after driving listening to music and using speedview, installing everything, and in 3g, also the wifi was on, as i thought the grey icon meant that it was off, but i was wrong. Those need to be white not gray, its confusing. I'm rebooting now to see if the signal is back... and it is. Well, i think this has been said already, so no new things.
