Well, mainly because I can't boot it for testing.. I am one of those who always gets a black screen.

But, OK. Let's move this over to the PA thread.. and anyone interested in testing, PM me.
[Motorola Atrix 2] lkrasner:
I am not controlling the updates, and Wang has not released any yet, you can check the link in the OP periodically if you want to see if it changes from the 4/3 release, but I check every day I remember to.

Nice Job! Want me to add it to the OP?

Also, I have been trying to get aokp going (yes, still, shut up everyone, I am well aware I have said this for months :p) and that should progress once my new wireless card arrives on thursday (long story). Anyways, would you mind sharing with me how you get all these to build so easily? last time I tried it didn't work so well, but I feel like it should be easy. What device tree are you using, and is there anything specific you have to do to get all these roms to build?

Thanks for the help,

-lkrasner
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Yea, I don't mind if you link it in the OP.. probably be a good thing for the black-screeners who want some cm10.1 goodness.

But, I am not getting everything to build "easily", it's quite a mess actually.. And, for wang's CM10.1 I just re-zipped it - no building involved. So, mostly just the PA roms (well, and the old pacman.. and straight aosp 4.0.4 and 4.2.2 - but I couldn't get those to boot).

As for a device tree, I am using mine (kexec-wip branch on my github) - which was actually originally wang's, and jim got his hands in it and passed it on to me a while ago. Check out my local_manifest also..

So, it was (and still is) a lot of trial and error.. But, yea, I also have a lot of little fixes and such in my working directory that are not committed anywhere.. I need to keep track of them or start all over. Hopefully one of these days we will have everything all worked out for our device..
[Motorola Atrix 2] shubham412302:
And I never get black screen.

Well I can help you in testing
[Motorola Atrix 2] deveshmanish:
Which part did you not understand???

BTW further testing is off.See here

May the -Mass times Acceleration- be with You...
[Motorola Atrix 2] Lifehacker7:
Except the JB leak and some ROMs based on it ( angeeks stuff I guess) , you can try all other ICS/ JB ROMs.

Read the OP thoroughly and understand it before flashing any ROM.

If you are unsure, then just ask before doing it.

And It's upto you to decide which one to put on your phone, as each person's likings are different. In My case, I'm loving cm10.1, no big bugs in this one.

And have the ATT FXZ files downloaded as it will easily get you back to ICS incase you soft brick.

They are in this thread . You should have RSD Lite installed on PC.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Ravikirancg:
cool.. if you have taken up aokp then I will just leave that and start with 'something else' I have in my mind.. but then again we must solve the drivers issue as soon as possible for any of this.. also, if you are planning to build kexec based (and maybe convert it and have two versions,) you will have to use wang's kernel source and not sts'. or apply his commits. else the modem wont work on some devices (surely mine).
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Looks like STS merged wang's kernel commits: https://github.com/STS-Dev-Team/kernel_mapphone_kexec/tree/edison - I used that in my build last night but the kexec version still won't boot.
[Motorola Atrix 2] minhajlk:
Altered you are awesome! :good:
[Motorola Atrix 2] jackall77:
well done altered..i just flash cm 10.1 last night .. no problem till now..and just oc to 1.2 .. pretty awesome..good job :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Cool. You still have BMM in there, or did you need to remove it to OC?
[Motorola Atrix 2] shubham412302:
I have oc with bmm.

Just using rom tool box to run Oc script at boot to get oc.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jackall77:
yes..i still have BMM .. all working fine ..
[Motorola Atrix 2] minhajlk:
Hi Altered,

I just flashed this ROM now, except for the tearing I think this ROM is almost perfect. Thank you for fixing the this ROM :good:

I want to flash this or PA as my first system but I have a little problem with wifi connection, most of the time I use my laptop as the hotspot but none of the custom ROMs detect the laptop hotspot, I have no problems connecting with routers. I have no wifi connection problems with stock ICS ROM. Is there any work around for this?

Thanks again for all the effort you put into perfecting these ROMs CM10.1 and PA :good:
[Motorola Atrix 2] deveshmanish:
Make a WPA2 hotspot.Use connectify if you're on Windows and every Rom will detect the hotspot

May the -Mass times Acceleration-be with You...
[Motorola Atrix 2] minhajlk:
I am on windows 7, I have tried wpa2, wep none of them detect my laptop hotspot. What is very strange is that I have no problem connecting with stock ICS with wep or wpa2. :confused:
[Motorola Atrix 2] Ravikirancg:
wow! you are fast! I just came back to edit my post regarding that and you have already done so. files/folders of interest are vendor are of interest. and kernel/omap4/drivers/gpu/pvr/module.c has some extra 'if's.. wang has not included those.. I have compared the stock ics kernels of razr and edison quite well.. the differences I found are that there are two new radio configs (PNX6718 (which I happen to have) and G4852) and there is the DinaraCG I told you about... they are present in our kernel source but not in razr. it appears to be present in droid 3 as well. also
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Guys, hang tight. I promise there is something big on the horizon for the kexec kernel. I can't talk about it all, just yet, but rest assured that I am working on a few big things. One is to help the boot and black screen issues, first off. I have a pretty good idea of the issue, and when the engineering phone hits my door, I already have a stock kernel with root logging setup to troubleshoot the kexec kernel issues.

More to come.
[Motorola Atrix 2] gekster:
I hope u aren't using the Russian post for this parcel.
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Lol.. Jim, glad to have you and your epic secrets back ;)

Also, congrats and excellent news about the dev phone - we can rest assured it's in good hands (no offense to the seller, but..)

Thank you in advance.

I will be around as usual to do what I can to contribute, and to benefit from yours and others contributions.. As will everyone else... These be exciting times for our little underdog Edison :D

Sent from my manta ray
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
I would not call them secrets per say, just that the people that I have reached out to, have asked to keep things on the down low, until we have something to share that is more solid, so as not to cause too much excitement or disappointment as the case may be. So when I say I can not share, that is the real reason behind all the secrets.

The only real secret around here is not to tip off moto that we might crack their code (bootloaders, etc.), but that is a real secret that we do not discuss here... LOL...
[Motorola Atrix 2] rivas1981:
update when?????

the latest versión is the one from april 4????
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Oops.. I didn't realize that there was newer version of cm10.1..

I will try to convert the latest version (20130401) to non-kexec also when I get a chance.
[Motorola Atrix 2] lkrasner:
1. I don't control the updates.

2. you have no right to ask for an update, devs can update when they want, we are doing this in our free time.

3.this is not the first time this has been asked.

4. It hasn't even been that long.

Sorry to be irritated, but come on, not necessary.
[Motorola Atrix 2] iamezio:
wanggjghost said already that he is focusing for now on MIUIv5 , so just be patient.
[Motorola Atrix 2] lkrasner:
On top of that there are multiple of us that are getting close to some good stuff with CM10.1 and other roms of our own independent of wangs builds, so that should be great. Jim mentioned his work with the kexec kernel, he has a dev phone coming, and hashcode is working on more and more for the A2.

I also got AOKP REALLY close to compiling last night. It went for 3 hours, so my guess is there aren't too many more errors to fix.

If anyone knows anything, this is what I am stuck on now!

CM10.1 (latest) non-kexec version

Here's the April 1st version with no kexec: CyanogenMod-Dev-edison-nightly-20130401-2132-nokexec.zip

MD5 SUM: 0FD4A209FE2B9C7E69BC8A75D2B8274D

INSTALL WITH BOOTMENU MANAGER (BMM) ONLY!

Install ROM (any system), and 4.2.2 Gapps. Wipe dalvik and cache always. Wipe data before install if coming from a different ROM.

No kexec means no hardware composer, which means UI tearing/shifting and lag...

Credit/thanks to wanggjghost..
[Motorola Atrix 2] hankbizzo5:
Still can not get it to boot stuck at the CyanogenMod splash????? Also no recovery?????
[Motorola Atrix 2] iamezio:
is your stock rom is ics ?
[Motorola Atrix 2] hankbizzo5:
Just going to Rsd back and try again????? Wow has been quite some time since I have had to do this LOL.....
[Motorola Atrix 2] rayan210:
Thanks for the ROM, it is working very good :laugh:
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Hmm.. booted fine for me on System 3. No recovery? That's strange.. I thought I put extra "precautions" in there so it should definitely force install BMM from any other recovery.

What were you running before installing? And, what recovery did you install it with?

Also, check your download.. I am going to get an md5 sum in a couple of minutes when I download the signed one that I uploaded, but check the file size, it should be 190,110,130 bytes..
[Motorola Atrix 2] Lifehacker7:
You have to press the volume down key one or 2 times just before the bootanimation appears. The notification light will light up for a moment. That's when you do it.
[Motorola Atrix 2] hankbizzo5:
I was on Cm the one before the black screen issue ( I also get black screen) and used the built in custom recovery..... I know like with pa the BMM worked fine..... Guess we will have to wait to see if anyone has the issue other than me?????

Edit: My download was 224931 kb
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Well, I downloaded it from the link, and re-installed it on system3... not much of a test to try to replicate your circumstances, but it boots fine again.

I posted the md5 in the post with the download link. I would check your downloaded zip... and possibly try again. But it's your choice.

Otherwise, not sure yet.. until I get a chance to experiment with it more on the main system from the cmdefy recovery

EDIT:

Yea, that would be the reason then..
[Motorola Atrix 2] shubham412302:
can anyone add 100mhz increment to the kexec kernel upto 1.4ghz
[Motorola Atrix 2] hankbizzo5:
Checked the file md5sum and everything still does not boot stuck on CyanogenMod splash?????
[Motorola Atrix 2] atrix2man:
AOKP sounds kool...maybe you can get it working.
[Motorola Atrix 2] A2Trip:
Yeah I got so stuck I had to RSD...n had no comp/laptop all day!!! :banghead:
[Motorola Atrix 2] hankbizzo5:
Lucky you my Winblows is down so had to use terminal and fastboot push everything, then adb for root then I could use my recovery backup..... Took like an hour.....
[Motorola Atrix 2] kindacrazyazn:
That happened to me too, had to FXZ back and just gave up.
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Are you all bootlooping and losing recovery from the 20130401 nokexec zip?

Is anyone besides me not bootlooping from it?

I may pull the zip then.. Or maybe it installs from BMM only? Sorry about the troubles..

Also, you could probably just flash your ICS system.img instead of the whole fxz to restore..
[Motorola Atrix 2] minhajlk:
I flashed using BMM on 3r system and everything was just fine. :)
[Motorola Atrix 2] kindacrazyazn:
I might try later to use BMM and see how that goes.

Are the steps:

Wipe data/factory reset

Flash ROM

Flash Gapps

wipe cache and dalvik cache

like PA? or should i follow the cm10.1 instructions?
[Motorola Atrix 2] minhajlk:
What ROM are you on right now and are you planning to flash as 1st or 3rd system using BMM?
[Motorola Atrix 2] kindacrazyazn:
i am on PA 3.15 right now, i could do it on 3 But kind of prefer it on 1.
[Motorola Atrix 2] minhajlk:
If you are trying to flash over PA 1st system, yes then your steps are correct. If you are planning to flash on 3rd system create the partition using the settings option in BMM and switch to 3rd system and flash ROM, Gapps,
[Motorola Atrix 2] kindacrazyazn:
Thank you kind sir. i might try it installing it on the 3rd partition we will see.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jackall77:
i flash 01042013 nokexec to system 1 .. no problem then oc to 1200ghz .. all through bmm .. :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
[Motorola Atrix 2] Maeur1:
Welp, I just tried to take the plunge, without BMM, and so it was the sole rom on the device, and i got bootlooped.
[Motorola Atrix 2] hankbizzo5:
Looks like it needs to be installed with BMM to work..... Will have to give it a shot an report back.....
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Thanks for testing/reporting..

Again, I apologize for the troubles.

That can only be installed with BMM apparently.. I will put a note in that post, and try to make a more compatible version when I get a chance.
[Motorola Atrix 2] hankbizzo5:
Ok so yes it was BMM...... Got it working this is how got BBM boot manager from market, Rebooted installed rom and good to go!!!!!

Edit O btw if you install BMM you will need the BMM patch so you do not bootloop if you just want BBM with any other CM rom.....
[Motorola Atrix 2] JimiGEE:
What I did was - I flashed ParanoidAndroid 4.2.2 while waiting for the black screen fix for this ROM. ParanoidAndroid gave me BMM. Then flash this ROM (the one modified with ICS kernel)
[Motorola Atrix 2] daavvis:
I'm running strong with pa as system one, and cm10.1 booting kexec from system three... Only one boot loop after upgrading pa yesterday, pulled the battery and wiped caches and poof booted right back up ( pa operated flawlessly the whole time only cm had issues... ) And I mean cm is running without flaw, no black screens, no issues at all...
[Motorola Atrix 2] Aceofzeroz:
Awsomeness!! laugh:I want to try that combo with PA and CM 10.1, but could you link me to the CM 10.1 build you flashed to get everything working so well? Please and thanks!:D

True..its always good to try something new.
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Not sure about the kexec builds, but I used another one of Hashcode's hacks (the fb.h one) to fix it in my non-kexec builds.

This new fix is only for kexec builds, and I am pretty sure the UI tearing is not an issue anymore with kexec and custom kernels.
[Motorola Atrix 2] daavvis:
Correct... Kexec=no ui tear

---------- Post added at 05:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:21 PM ----------

I built my own, off the latest build, just followed the instructions to convert cm10.1 to run on bmm... Really simple, only problem I had, was one time (this weekend) I updated pa and had to pull the battery to boot into cm10.1.... Prob just a bmm glitch

Hint:

If you install pa as instructed on system 1, it cuts out a lot of steps trying to get cm10.1 running on 1st system, and less steps means less chance for error;)
[Motorola Atrix 2] Aceofzeroz:
That's exactly what I wanted to try yesterday but I messed up and softbricked after installing PA from being on NUMA rom before. I'll try again later but everything's ok now, thanks. :thumbup::p:)

i think i have flashed version 28 march but unable to flash gapps. once i have successfully installed the ROM. i boot up to flash gapps by using (power + volume down method) i didnt bring me to recovery but fastboot mode. anyone can help?

---------- Post added at 03:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:00 AM ----------

to add up. i even installed .apk bootstrap hoping that i will get the recovery from there, but when u boot up, i stuck at black boot screen hence i FXZ again
[Motorola Atrix 2] lkrasner:
NEVER install a different recovery, you will break things.

that is not how you get to recovery, that is how you get to fastboot, as you discovered. reboot the phone and tap vol. down when the lights come on until it comes up. It can be a bit picky sometimes.

[Motorola Atrix 2] kindacrazyazn:
Your first problem is that you used Atrix boot strap and not

Boot Menu Manager

. What you have to do is RSD using the proper file (use ATT if it is an ATT phone or International if it is not). Then you would need to re-root using one of the options for root. Then install BMM from the playstore and follow those instruction to get it properly installed. Once you have done that you can create a backup in BMM and flash. The steps should include wiping data, installing ROM, install proper Gapps, Wipe cach and dalivik cache, and reboot.
