Thanks for the build 6 and the efforts you are paying on these ROMs :D

Now coming to the reported call related bugs. I already said it in the CM thread and also repeating here, I haven't faced any of the issue in the 5.10 built I am running on my system 1 as a main and only ROM right now. When everything is working, why you introducing one bug to remove a bug which is non existent.

Co incidentally there have been talks about call waiting and in-call volume bugs and today itself I have had three incident when I was on calls and other incoming calls followed me and I clearly could hear the cal waiting beep without any interruption in the ongoing call. About the in call volume, there is no issues again. I have experience the buggy ROMs also so I am aware about the bugs and I owuldn't like to have any of those bugs. Calling experience in 5.10 is feeling just like what I am used to of my stock ROM days. volume rocker is working fine, call voice quality is great, everything is working fine for me atleast.

Please again test the 5.10 deeply, requesting other 5.10 users also to test the ROM again so that we know which ROM version is there with no call related bug

One reminder though, I have used/tested all the Kitkat ROMs only with ART, any probability that is making any difference?

:D
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
If there is any major issue, you can simply swap the audio.primary.edison.so file from /system/lib/hw with the one from build 5.10.. Maybe I'll make a zip package for it.

And, my agenda is not to introduce new bugs into these ROMs. This latest change is just reverting back and cleaning up the source code (for myself - I'm a minimalist).
[Motorola Atrix 2] Jack Sparrow xda:
Obviously not, neither I had intention of blaming you, I was just reporting what I experienced as a 'responsible' user of the ROMs you guys made possible for us to enjoy them. :D

Thats what making me worried. Now its the stage when atleast SlimKat is reaching at a point when all the unnecessary things will be cleaned out. But in the process, there is risk of fixing/unfixing the wrongly reported issues which might have been caused by something else. I am not a programmer or developer and don't understand these things, neither I have any such knowledge that I can make you learn. I am just an end user who is thankful for the work of you guys :D

My point was simple that there have been users who reported issues with the call waiting or call volume. On the other hand there are users like me who haven't had any of the above issues in the 5.10 build. So may be or may not be everything related to the calls is alright in the 5.10.

Here I am not putting question mark on anyone but my request is that please test the 5.10 build for these call related bugs with a clean install using 4.4.4 GApps. Maybe the file you are talking here is bug-free. Maybe the issue was in different build or caused by any dirty flash or something like that? Or maybe different versions of the Atrix2 are acting differently in different builds?

[MENTION=4523997]alteredlikeness[/MENTION] I hope you understand my point and don't take it otherwise. :)
[Motorola Atrix 2] Aceofzeroz:
He'll understand, though you also need to take into consideration that our Atrix 2 is a very "special" device, where different owners will have varying experience with the same content.;):p Let's take a walk down memory lane, shall we?

I assume you're relatively new here, so I'll assume you had no idea that just last year around this time, not all users could even boot kexec roms. I was one of them and we'd all experience the same symptom of a black screen whilst trying to boot those 4.2.2 roms. Yet some other users' devices could actually boot them just fine, thus I ended up calling our group of black screen victims, the kexec rejects club!:D

Our only salvation was thanks to altered at the time, who used [MENTION=4119143]wanggjghost[/MENTION] 's sources to construct roms that could boot without the kexec kernel by using an alternate set of files, birthing *non*-kexec roms.:) We were limited, but happy with this awesome method to enjoy these modified roms. While at the time our first porting enthusiast, [MENTION=4859648]deveshmanish[/MENTION], was porting a lot of new custom roms from the Droid Razr, which all used the early, battery-eating kexec kernel.

It wasn't until near the end of last year July, when our other very talented RC, [MENTION=4624976]Ravikirancg[/MENTION] who was working a lot on solving it, he finally made the successful breakthrough!:cool: With his fix implemented, we could all boot kexec roms and our A2 experience grew from there... it was so awesome!:crying:

So there you have it Jack, we've come a long way from much more difficult times and have blossomed into the marvel you see before you, all thanks to the efforts of our extremely talented contributors.:highfive: Such mild issues as these telephony bugs were the least of our concerns and people need to understand that we would probably be in the legacy section right now without them.;)

P.S.: My apologies [MENTION=4523997]alteredlikeness[/MENTION] for going off-topic, yet again, but our adventures need to be known and understood, hehe.:cool:

HEll yeah....Sometimes its the struggle that is more alluring than the result itself...have been through all that myself......From Tearing non-kexec builds to fully functional Kitkat ROMS ......its been a helluva ride :D
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Point understood and noted.

I also hope that you understand my point and the reason for this recent change. I can be somewhat pedantic at times, and I just didn't like the look of those 4 commits to change one file. And, no need to worry, this definitely won't be the last build.

Nice nostalgic recap :D

And, let's not forget the "dreaded" leak of 2012 - http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...he-dreaded-ics-leak-of-2012-and-the-solution/ Many bricks. Much drama. Good times..
[Motorola Atrix 2] Uzayr:
A trip down memory lane indeed, Our A2 is a proud old warhorse, which has been through a lot. And still refuses to kick the bucket.

What i found quite distinguishing as a noob is that the A2 forums had/has really nice people, who are willing to help the others as a community. Not to mention ****storms which i never saw in the A2 community.
[Motorola Atrix 2] devilhunter47:
Guys you forgot the creator of the battery drain fix [MENTION=2372465]ShurikKb[/MENTION]
[Motorola Atrix 2] Jack Sparrow xda:
Though I am aware of that the devs usually put hard work into developing and porting the ROMs in different devices, its not that easy what it looks to the end users while using a perfectly working refined ROM on the device. I came onto XDA (didn't register that time) more than a year ago just to know that the developing/porting a fully working ROMs on Atrix2 is almost impossible so left hope of expecting new ROMs for the Atrix2.

Its been more than two years I have been using Atrix2. I am amongst those guys who believe the money spent on the phone replacement is just a waste as far as the hardware is capable but we have to replace the phone just because the software becomes obsolete. But the hard work of you guys made it possible to keep the Atrix 2 alive for much more time.

I had started thinking about replacing my beloved Atrix2 couple of months back but then I came across this section and today I have a 'new' phone running latest Android firmware without spending a single penny. :)

All said and done, I had no idea what journey our Atrix2 really had gone through. Thanks Aceofzeroz for letting know about the history :) Feeling proud to know guys like all of you have worked on this underrated phone :D

Thanks :D

It's haven't even been a month since I registered on XDA but the experience and the journey has been so great so far. Now you know why I keep my id as "Jack Sparrow" :D

We have gone way off topic in this thread and getting emotional but worth it. If these posts need to be moved out of this thread then please move and put them in relevant thread instead of deleting :)
[Motorola Atrix 2] mohammadumair:
Bugs? Not anymore

Hey guys its been a pleasure for having such good roms for the beloved atrix2. About people complaining of incall volume bug and a few black screen and freeze issues, i personally haven't faced any issues upon installing on system1. I had made a clean install on JBleak3. Is it because the problems are occuring on other systems only. Except call waiting issue, none persists. Thank you for all the support shown by devs...
[Motorola Atrix 2] Redicus:
What battery fix? Is there a battery fix out there!? :confused:

So no 20% battery drain overnight?

Also how do I overclock the gpu?

Do I need to install JBX or i can overclock directly via an app? Last time I tried overclocking i couldnt find values higher than 384 for GPU.
[Motorola Atrix 2] رامز:
wow! what was the last time you've flashed a kexec rom? I've break a record 3 months ago with my Atrix 2 using a kexec rom "SlimKat" and made a 7 day standby with only one charge :) (0.5% consumption with altered kernel with the battery fix by shurkkib included)...check here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52169320&postcount=681

and about the GPU overclock...384MHz is overclock we mean, it's not a breakthrough but try to set your GPU to that value and use GLTools to fake your game and select Adreno320 from the GL options then open your game and you will be astonished by the result :D I could even upload a pictures of my MC4 before and after doing that trick, it's really like getting a new phone with a higher performance :) thanks to our kind developers :good:
[Motorola Atrix 2] Redicus:
Can you explain it a bit. Also post links to shurikkb battery fix, The kernel you are talking about and GLtools. Cant find them.

I dont think 384 GPU is overclocked. Its default. The overclocked value was in 400's range if i remember correctly.
[Motorola Atrix 2] swaggy123:
O dear dear, there is no link for shurik's battery fix...those are kernel commits which are already implemented into various kernels like JBX by dtrail1 and CM kernel by Altered...

There is a github link for his commits though which you can visit if u wish to use those commits unless u r a dev
[Motorola Atrix 2] رامز:
nope...let's answer your questions in a parts:

1) shurkkib battery fix is a software commit that's embedded in the altered Kernel, it's not an app you can install or even a zip you can flash!

so how to have that fix...simply by flashing any of the latest Atrix 2 roms found here in the development section "whether the rom is made by altered or not as all of other roms also depend on his kernel contribution except the [MENTION=414800]arnab[/MENTION] roms which depends on jbx (I guess you know what jbx mean)".

2) GLTools is an app that is used to give any game fake info about your GPU so you can set (fake) your GPU to another higher chip to force the game to be played in extra graphics level.

so how to get that app and what is the best GL settings for our A2(Atrix 2) ...here you can find the exact answer http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=53779766&postcount=5

3) 307MHz is the default GPU speed for our A2 whether you run a stock rom with stock kernel or a custom rom with CM kernel or even with the jbx kernel!

so if you want to overclock your GPU, the only option is to flash a jbx kernel and CHANGE the gpu value to HIGHER than 307 which is 384MHz..if you still not sure, here is the source http://www.mediafire.com/view/7zaddcmvtxfk9ry/JBX+Kernel+Guide_v1.8.pdf page 25, also see the attachment page captured from that page.

don't hesitate to ask any question, there is always someone who is ready to help :angel:
[Motorola Atrix 2] Redicus:
Wow, thanks. So if the fix is embedded in all the ROM (Slimkat) why is my battery so bad.

Maybe my phone's battery is dead. I cant get 6-7 days standby time. I used to get 0.5% drop/hr in JBleak 3. After that all roms eat 2 or 3% battery/hr even in Standby at night. So max it would go 2 days. I can get 4 hours screen on time. Also I have 3G on all the time.

Ok so 307 is the default one. I saw that my GPU is at max 307. There are only 2 option in Trickster Mod 153 & 307. So to get 384, I need to flash Jbx right?

The last time I flashed Jbx, I soft briked my phone. Do I need to change any settings while flashing jbx?
[Motorola Atrix 2] swaggy123:
Buddy thats GREAT TIME anyways ...If u get 2 days out of your device with 3G always ON...thast excellent stats there mate.... Still if are circumspect...Just erase all roms and flash JB LEak3 and see the battery DROP, that way you can atleast be sure if your battery is busted or not :)
[Motorola Atrix 2] رامز:
as [MENTION=4660348]swaggy123[/MENTION] said (thanks swaggy :)), 2 days with 3G always on isn't bad and you can improve it by turning on "airplane mode" at night before sleeping or use Greenify to partially disable the battery hungry apps or using Tasker....etc actually there is a great apps in android that help to reduce battery consumption.

about jbx...yes and sorry if my question being stupid but are you sure that you flash jbx in the right system (I mean the same system that your kexec rom exist)? as when you open BMM it starts with system1 as the default path, and if you forget to change the system to system 3 or whatever it will flash jbx over your JB leak which isn't kexec and obviously will cause brick!

also make sure to follow dtrail1 instructions while flashing and be careful what to select from the installer....here is the installation guide http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52350860&postcount=74

also flash jbx as you're flashing a normal rom and NEVER select "Flash Kernel" in BMM.

hope it helped :)
[Motorola Atrix 2] Redicus:
Heh, I cant flash jb leak again just to check the battery usage. Its just too much of a headache, to reinstall everything again and configure each apps setting.

Yea, I had CM or something in Sys1 and flashed jbx on it and I couldnt boot anymore and had to FXZ back to stock. Ok, i will try it again, not an issue. Thanks for helping guys.
[Motorola Atrix 2] swaggy123:
Beleive me its worth the pain..You never know if the battery is busted...JB LEak 3 is a sure shot proof of battery state. And about not being able to Boot after JBX....Remember just to tick trickster mod enable and battery friend disable

Rest options should be unticked. Only then you can boot successfully.
[Motorola Atrix 2] dejannk:
6 is looking good. I am not getting low in-call volume either.

Candy crush is broken though, no graphics. Is anyone else getting that? I'm getting withdrawal symptoms, this is serious! ;)

D
[Motorola Atrix 2] Redicus:
A little off topic questions,

1) Why should we untick battery friend?

2) Do I need to flash the 3.0.8 jbx version or the 3.0.31 jbx version?
[Motorola Atrix 2] swaggy123:
You disable battery friend so that you can BOOT :D

2) JBX 3.0.31 is the version KITKAT onwards....3.0.8 JBX was for JB...sa far as i remember...

Just flash the JBX of the latest date...dnt wry abt the version...Its taken care on its own....:good:
[Motorola Atrix 2] Barb3r:
Probably a noob/dumb question, can I install this on my AT&T. Model.?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Barb3r:
Ok, ill try it again.I got the error(something is wrong, BMM will not load)
[Motorola Atrix 2] Jack Sparrow xda:
No update in this thread?

Who all have tired build 6? Whats good or bad in the build 6 compared to earlier versions?

So far I have been happily living with rock stable 5.10 :fingers-crossed: in system 1, almost NIL bugs :cyclops:

One tip for those who feel SlimKat boring (though I love it for what it is) and want to add some drama - Just enable the List View Animation from Settings>Display. There are few combinations available for each one's liking. My current settings are : Wave (Left), Overshoot :cowboy:
[Motorola Atrix 2] Ravikirancg:
Where am I?? :confused:

Oh yeah!! The good ol' days! :p

one more thing as I am here anyway.. I need someone capable to maintain official PAC for ths device.. I told Chad quite a few times that a new guy will take over this device but something or other would happen and it would get buried..

Good Luck!
[Motorola Atrix 2] Aceofzeroz:
RRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVVVVVVVVVIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!:eek::eek::D:D:D:crying::crying::crying: Great to see you drop by, and in the month of your major kexec breakthrough.:cool: I was just reminiscing with the new members of why our device is so special and how you and the others helped make it better in releasing its true potential.:)

As for PAC, yeah it still doesn't have a replacement maintainer and we in the A2EPT are already tied up with roms. Just to help reiterate to others, the position isn't hard at all, just to make a new PAC thread, be in contact with the official devs and keep it updated with the ROM links to the official build site.

better battery life

I don't know if its just me, but I am getting 3 hours of screen-on time with 6.8 build...it was 1 and a half hour with 6.4 build...I was about to ditch slimkat for CM...but I think I'll hang on to it for a while... :fingers-crossed:
[Motorola Atrix 2] swaggy123:
OMG..3 hours ??

Even CM doesnt giv that :o
[Motorola Atrix 2] Jack Sparrow xda:
All of the ROMs have given me around 3 hours of screen time including CM, Slim, Axxion, Liquid etc. Thats not a big deal but I am expecting more, especially the standby and internet time :silly:
[Motorola Atrix 2] shubham1120:
But this build has better battery life for sure!! Also, further standby time improvement is almost next to impossible given that all our kk roms are kexec.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Jack Sparrow xda:
How about flashing drail's jbx kernel over this build? I haven't tried that yet.

I would prefer either battery life or the performance but right now none seems being achieved with these Kitkat ROMs in stock form.
[Motorola Atrix 2] shubham1120:
Yeah you could do that! Since you mentioned about performance, you can easily over clock not only cpu, but gpu as well. Performance wise you would be very happy. The standby time is comparable to stock kernel but battery life hit is significant if you do insane overclocks. I've found that 1200 mhz cpu and 384mhz gpu gives best all round performance. I would say give jbx a shot and check!
[Motorola Atrix 2] Jack Sparrow xda:
Thanks, something around 1.2 is what I am also looking for. Could you please let me know which is the latest stable build of the JBX kernel? Got confused by seeing lot of links along with mention of test builds.
[Motorola Atrix 2] swaggy123:
Is there any way to change the recents panel ??

I really dont like the recent panel coming from the right side in SLIM...and there is no inbuilt option to change the recents panel ... can you point me to any exposed module that can change the recents panel

Thanks in advance
[Motorola Atrix 2] Jack Sparrow xda:
Yes, there are quite a few settings for the recent panel. Like you can move the recent panel to left side or right side as per your liking. Then comes the most important setting which is about which apps you want to see maximized or minimized. Few apps look in min and few in max so it looks ugly. When I was on slim, I used to keep all of them in min mode which looks cool to me. Also pinching the recent panel with two fingers (from top and bottom) closes all the recent activities.

Right now I am not on Slim so can't say where exactly the setting is but I am sure you can find it somewhere in the main settings. :)
[Motorola Atrix 2] shubham1120:
I think he was talking about the whole recent panel. That is he wants it to be like CM and others. Even I absolutely hate slim recent panel but battery life more than makes up for it. And as far as I know, it can't be replaced
[Motorola Atrix 2] swaggy123:
I didn't find any difference in battery life...m going to cm11 25/4 build...no HDMI....no call adjustment...but epic battery
[Motorola Atrix 2] adnanschat:
Is it 25/4 or 18/4 build? I am planning to switch back to this rom too. You used jbx kernel with it?

Is it 25/4 or 18/4 build? I am planning to switch back to this rom too. You used jbx kernel with it?
[Motorola Atrix 2] swaggy123:
Sory i meant 18/3...cm 11 it has battery drop of 0.8% pee hour in idle

However i settled for the 6/7 build ....it has a ll call issues settled... And gives great battery as well because Bluetooth keyboard mice support is not there...currently my daily driver
[Motorola Atrix 2] adnanschat:
6/7 or 7/6? Please provide link and you didn't answer if you use jbx kernel or not.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gr8mobiPro:
Ohh.. Finally... Great battery backup... Using it since 2 days..no need to go back to jb leaks just for battery backup.

Sometimes i m not able to receive call.

Overall... I am happy with this rom.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Jack Sparrow xda:
I guess its your first battery cycle after the latest version flashing. Please observe for couple of more battery charge cycles and update us. BTW are you on dalvik or ART?

Also notice the performance. I noticed the one of previous version was running became too slow after few days. Hope this version remains lighter on performance front as well.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gr8mobiPro:
I am on dalvik. In ART system laggs a lot.

In case u feel system slow or anything you can use xBooster root (play store)

Amazing small application.

No call waiting bug.. No in call volume bug. Sometimes black screen leads to force restart.

EDIT: its been 11h 8 min and my battery is 43% wopppiee..although i know after 36 its gonna fall to 19% directly..
[Motorola Atrix 2] shubham1120:
This rom along with others begin to lag after a while if using stock kernel. Jbx solves it. I guess this maybe due to memory leaks. I'll try xbooster though! Thanks for suggestiom
