Gallery works fine

Email apps presented and kept my company email settings

Motoblur account removed (only my company email and facebook account is kept)

swype works as default but i dont use it

wifi working

vibration is now more solid and softer than before (which i like)

thanks kennethpen for making my first Android ROM an easy ride with style :D

Step-by-step instructions:

this instructions apply for my phone (aRooted by DG, sim-unlock by code, nothing else)

- download beta 5 zip file, extract to folder

- connect phone to pc, choose None in usb mode, enable USB Debugging mode (if you have rooted the phone, you will know this)

- run the install.bat file (for regular installation) in the folder

- grab a beer like in the instruction, wait for the process to complete

- wait for the reboot. done. now customize your phone in gingerbread style :D

Is it just me, or does the alarm always say 10:10am regardless of the alarm time?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] live4nyy:
I am curious if the removal of the MotoBlur account is the same issue that was present in the Adeo v0.2 update? Or is this to be expected?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] holtenc:
got a little problem. the APNs aren't unlocked and tethering/mobile hotspot doesn't work. FYI. anyone else?

beta 1 on top of fresh SBF flash

update: tethering/mobile hotspot is working now, but not natively. had to create a custom APN.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
Yeah the backup takes years. I'm probably going to make it optional in future versions.

No it uses Moto's.

You've got to flash B5 to get tethering. If it still doesn't work... then I'll have to check into that.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] lsxrx7:
dude

beta 5 is out already

why u on beta 1 ??

i installed beta 5, looks / works fine so far, installation process faster than i expected

will report back if bugs

one thing

i do like that Blur messaging app, which combines txt, email, gmail ...etc, how do i get that back ?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tianqi:
If its using the motorola message app then its still subjected to the 1k text per contact max limit?

I have years of texts that I've painfully imported from different phones from the past so I'd prefer not to lose it
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
Future updates will allow you to choose which bloatware applications you'd like to keep. For now, you can use RootExplorer or ADB to rename the appropriate .apk.bak file in /system/app to ".apk" and then do a reboot. That'll install it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
Yes... it has all the same restrictions as the Blur app. It is the Blur app.

I'm working on putting the AOSP messaging app on here.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jiggytom:
I feel as if I have less screen space...or maybe the icons are taking up more space. I could have sworn I fit more stuff in before with motoblur....is that possible? Any ideas?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] lsxrx7:
cool

easy enough
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Mustang302LX:
Man I need to get me a PC just for Android mods. Having a Mac and having to wait to borrow a PC to do this stuff stinks!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Clienterror:
Can't you just run boot camp or parallels?

Sent from my Nook Color on Honeycomb 1.1 OC
[Atrix 4G Android Development] LancerV:
Anyway to get the messaging icon back? Also seems to have deleted my IMAP emails?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Mustang302LX:
Yeah but that requires having a copy of Windows which I don't have.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] JayRolla:
Yay!!, this is working great. Beta 5 installed quick with no issues. Thanks.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] b1indsided:
so b4 i flash this rom does thats in beta 5 does anything not work??? im really satisfied with this rooted stock rom..i jus really want a gingerbread theme...so tell me is this it?? or should i wait
[Atrix 4G Android Development] chbearsrock:
installed b5 painlessly...but my softkey buttons don't light up anymore. i installed the webtop edition of your mod over adeo .1, if that info can help. Great work, hope to see some minor fixes in the future!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] donharden2002:
Dude, smoking kills puppies.. :-)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Mustang302LX:
I can say for sure I don't have that issue.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] domin8:
i may be jumping the gun here, but is the next iteration going to incorporate the new beta OTA that's been posted in general? seems to have made wifi, touchscreen, bluetooth, and battery life enhancements i'm sure we could use here too!

edit: do we need to wait to acheive root with that new update ?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] drock212:
Hey Ken awesome job on GingerBlur its absolutley amazing. I had a question/request if at all possible. Could the messaging apk be repacked as a stand alone apk so that pictures are no longer treated and slideshows or videos?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] SS2006:
Would love to know as well
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mrshowtime:
i have recieved the link for beta update file from another forum. I want to update my atrix but i am not really comfortable in my flashing abilities. I am currently running gingerblur 7.7, if i press the factory reset button from the settings menu will i end up with a bricked phone?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] GTTG_Atomik:
You'll want to flash the stock ROM then do the update. Doing a Factory Reset through Settings will most likely leave you a pretty paper weight. Upon reading the other forums, it looks like root is lost. Pretty sure this is correct information, but anyone chime in invade I am mistaken. :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mrshowtime:
thanks man i really appreciate it
[Atrix 4G Android Development] GTTG_Atomik:
I have this problem also. My device isn't showing up. When I try the Uninstall.bat, that also shows "device not found." Any other suggestions? I can't seem to get my Atrix recognized. I've turned on and off debugging while it's connected, while not connected, during restart... nothing seems to work.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] roharia:
I was on the Motorola forums and saw a post; in short the post is basically saying Motorola is promising to unlock the bootloader for the Atrix. WOuld this mean we would be able to get pure gingerbread on here?

[Atrix 4G Android Development] bsp120167:
Can this be installed over the new update Moto just sent? Or do I have to revert to stock
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kandroid:
Would love to see that happen. If that did happen, pure android ports would be the first things we'll be seeing here.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Smallsmx3:
Not without source....unlocked bootloader would be half the battle.....we would most likely see oc/ uv first
[Atrix 4G Android Development] drock212:
The new update moto sent out is not only a beta update but also isn't significant enough to go running to install it. If you want gingerblur (which is damn cool) don't worry about the update till moto actually releases something to the public that includes more that fingerprint scanner and touch screen improvements.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] PoseyBAH:
I work for bell and have a Atrix on the way. What seems to be the problem with this rom and the bell atrix? I know i would probally find the answer through the 200 rthread pages but i figured this way would be quicker (:
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
the Bell Atrix has slightly different system files, and installing this would change them in such a way that it would cause your phone to "soft brick" which is fixable, but not easily, and can also lead to other problems.

Don't install it, your phone wont even boot - that's the bottom line.

Ken (the dev) is looking to add support for Bell phones in the future, just be patient
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xXxSamxXx:
An amazing theme like I've said before, I've encountered a couple bugs with wifi even with fix. My brothers iphone will get full wifi bars and mine gets none, could be software. Also does anyone know the ETA for HoneyBlur? Its gonna be awesome!

[Atrix 4G Android Development] ncfballkid:
Where did you see that in the Motorola forums?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
they never really promised to unlock them, they promised that they would "have a bootloader solution"

there's no telling what that really means, nor when they plan on releasing it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] PoseyBAH:
totally patient, I won the phone through work and im looking to get away from the motoblur. Im in no rush I currently have a Desire HD with CM7 on it. so like i said, im in no rush.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
well, in the time being you can look at this thread to get away from some of the bloatware, and just look at any of the launcher apps on the market to replace the motoblur launcher (ie. launcher pro, adw laucher, etc.)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] PoseyBAH:
yea, i'll definitely play around with it. So does the root method work with the Bell Atrix?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
yes, aRoot will root your Bell Atrix, now we're getting kind of off topic, so if you have further questions regarding additional stuff please ask them in their respective threads :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] PoseyBAH:
haha guess your right, thanks for the help (:

Corporate sync and Email

GB7.7 is running great with one exception. I can't find any way to get to Corporate Sync email or to the app that used to list all email accounts and Corp Sync in the same place and let you select which one to open.

I still can get notification from Corp Sync on an inbound message and then open that way but no way I can see to get to an inbox for it.

Email app opens my imap account fine but it would be nice to get that choice back so I could select one icon from home that would let me choose the inbox to open.

I hate to admit but that ugly motoblur messaging widget was useful but now it only partially works 'go to messaging' no longer functions.

This is a great rom and I love the other features!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] afkev:
What version of the stock rom do I have to flash?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] VeNuMuS:
Also adding to this question, do i still need to flash stock SBF if im still on stock?:confused:
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
whichever, they're exactly the same for the most part

no you don't
[Atrix 4G Android Development] VeNuMuS:
So i could just flash Gingerblur right now?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
yes, just follow instructions on the OP
[Atrix 4G Android Development] VeNuMuS:
Thanks for the help Bro.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] cataclysmicvoid:
I've been searching through this thread but I am having trouble finding a definitive answer to the problem I'm having. I know this isn't rare, but here it goes:

I'm not finding any 5Ghz wifi networks (nor can I connect to them if I put in the info manually), and I think my wifi connection may be dropping out (in the status bar it never shows that I lose it, but a few apps have claimed that I lost my connection).

I flashed design_gears' SBF file, and then installed 7.7. I can confirm that 5Ghz was working on that fresh SBF flash before I installed GB 7.7.

Anyone have any ideas?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] afkev:
Thanks!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jeffc:
Wifi Icon disappears

Has anyone noticed the Wifi icon disappears when the screen is locked and blanked for a bit? After I unlock it displays in a second or two. Does this really mean Wifi is disconnects or is it just a visual thing?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Khoops66:
What is the hulu hack mean?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
it is a mod that allows you to stream video on hulu's site using a mobile browser and flash 10.2
[Atrix 4G Android Development] cataclysmicvoid:
You probably have Wifi set to sleep when the screen is locked. This is a battery saving feature that I dislike.

Check "Menu button > Settings > Wifi and Networks > Wifi Settings > Menu button > Advanced > Wifi Sleep Policy"
[Atrix 4G Android Development] KefkaticFanatic:
So from people that have used this and the new OTA update, what would you recommend? Keeping the new update (with sideloading), or reverting back and using GingerBlur? I hope it's not a problem to ask a question like this in this topic D:
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jeffc:
Its set to 'Never when plugged in'. I'm wondering if this wasn't just an issue with me moving around my house. I have 2 wifi access points and it might be losing connection to one and not reconnecting immediately.

One thing I want to be sure: will it always try to connect via Wifi if available instead of 3G/H? If I'm around my Wifi I certainly don't want to eat up my data plan!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
yes it will auto-connect
[Atrix 4G Android Development] franciscojavierleon:
the update isn't worth losing root over. not even if motorola releases gingerbread i will update without root
[Atrix 4G Android Development] fRenZy-_-:
Is the lockscreen(finger print) a lot faster and more responsive?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] wcallaway4:
the actual update from motorola needs to bee cooked into this rom because when i try and update it myself i get this-

"com.android.settings.deviceinfo.CheckUpdate" is not available without a social networking account.

To create a new account, click "Setup" button

i then click setup and the message just goes away and nothing happens, i have an email account and a facebook account tied to the phone. i have noticed that my blur account has disappeared, so im thinking this rom may have killed it. this same thing happens if i uninstall first. the update from motorola has some good optimizations that i dont want to miss out on...please help
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
flash back to stock sbf first then. search the development forum for a guide on how to do so.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] newname:
works well
[Atrix 4G Android Development] SS2006:
kenneth quick note

i dont think the 'dlna' app really counts as bloatware, its very useful

can you not have it removed when i choose Y to remove bloatware
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
...you don't have a Bell phone do you? installing this on a bell phone is a bad idea, you'll soft brick your device.

just wondering because you're from london, ON. but maybe you have an unlocked AT&T
[Atrix 4G Android Development] DannyV94:
I am currently running B7.7 and I've noticed an issue with my vibrate function.

When I have my phone on silent/vibrate, it does not vibrate for text messages but it does for calls. Any ideas why this could be?

Thanks!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] SS2006:
Thanks for the concern :)

I actually got it on launch day form ATandT ahah I couldnt wait!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] fr0z3n:
I have been following this thread from the start, I really want to try this, but do you have a fix for:

"Exchange contact syncing may be broken"

all my contacts are on my exhcnage server, so i kinda absoultely need it.

anything I can do manually to fix the above?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nalomo:
So if I have an app that auto rotates to landscape mode vs portrait mode, will the webtop hack work right? Will it scale up the image for my tv? (i'm not expecting HD graphics on my 46" LCD)

My question revolves around an app called TV SHOW STREAMS. Some of the shows do MegaUpload streaming and on my phone it looks amazing in landscape mode. Full screen.

I just want something similar on my TV and the last time I used the webtop hack before installing GBlur, the landscape mode was sketchy at best and it overscanned my screen. I couldn't figure out how to get it to fit to screen.

If Kenneth or someone else can figure out how to do the HDMI hack landscaping I would be done modding my phone. lol.

Anyone else got any suggestions or ideas that I can explore?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Celidonius:
What do you have to do to enable the HDMI Webtop and mirroring features? I tried coping the apks to my phone and install them but still no luck.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
well, if you installed GingerBlur you should have accepted either one or the other in the installation script, and they should need no changes to run, but if not, then for questions regarding their installation please see their respective threads in this forum (development forum)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Celidonius:
Okay, I'll try reinstalling GingerBlur.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
i believe that those two hacks are mutually exclusive, so only say yes to one or the other rather than both.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nsaia:
I had this problem too. The way I got the universal inbox back was to reinstall and when the script asks you if you want to replace the messaging app with the gingerbread version select no.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nsaia:
I sync just fine with exchange. Nothing special was necessary.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Celidonius:
It says uninstalling GingerBlur might "break" my phone. Is that really a big risk?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
uninstalling is usually not done - if someone really want to get rid of gingerblur they usually flash back to stock sbf (follow instructions here)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
RC1 on the way! Not much changed, but I believe we've hit a milestone of stability. I am working on the Facebook contact integration problem for RC1. Wish me luck!

Changelog for RC1:

- Framework finalization. Dark tabs for phone and other applications using Android tabs API's. Fix for light text on some drop down buttons.

- Facebook sync fix?

- Finalization of the project...

GingerBlur ROM

I have finally installed the GingeBlur ROM

Its a great ROM even though its only the BETA version. I cant wait for the finalized version to come out. I Suggest to anybody doing this to download the SBF file from Brief-mobile. When I first rooted my phone I did something stupid and soft bricked it. The SBF File is a life saver. I also Re-Flashed back to the Stock before intalling ADEO ROM. I re-flashed again using the SBF File to run a clean install for Gingerblur. The particular bugs I noticed was that I did not get he gingerbread Keyboard with swype, which I want badly. If it does not come with swype, then thats my ignorance, but other than that, the ROM is stable, but you only get five home screens for customization versus seven.

I look forward to the next release. Everyone who posts here helps me learn I hope my post helps others as well Cheers to the DEV on this Great ROM

I wish I was that dam smart! :D
[Atrix 4G Android Development] plvaulter06:
Over the same Wi-Fi network my Atrix shows only about 4.6Mb/s download and 1.x up using the speedtest.net app. With my galaxy tab it shows usually around 50 up and down with the same app. Why is the Atrix's wi-fi so slow?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Celidonius:
What if I only want to uninstall to get the HDMI Webtop mode to work? Or would I still have to flash back to stock sbf? Also, sorry for all the questions, but what are the requirements before installing GingerBlur? All I did was just root my phone.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nalomo:
Good job Kenneth.

I'm new to android and new to ROMs as well... however, GBlur kicks ass. It's so well put together and so professional. I'm glad to support you bro.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
I don't know how I could make things more simple for everyone. If you want: HDMI mirroring, Webtop through HDMI hack, tethering, or Hulu hack --->

INSTALL ADDONS.BAT

I thought it was fairly simple! :rolleyes:
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Celidonius:
Haa I feel so stupid I was just going to post that I never ran the ADDON.bat. Though I think I might still have to flash to stock because after uninstalling GingerBlur I do not see my messaging app nor stock multitouch keyboard.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] JayRolla:
What are you talking about. I came from the iPhone and Ive never seen so many people targeting a phone OS. I mean its pretty bad, there are so many virus's and hackers attacking android its not even funny.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jkurl:
It is freakin joke, but since your asking what i mean is ios is a piece of crap. You know something i left in my toilet. I upgraded early and paid alot for the atrix so i could get rid of my ipod that could make calls.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
We are talking about my website being down... not my phone getting attacked. ;)

Update: the release candidate will officially get rid of that nasty off-orange and replace it with the standard Android colors for progress bars! Woohoo!

I have been able to get Facebook contact syncing to work when flashing on a new SBF. Unfortunately, it seems to go away if I reflash GingerBlur over GingerBlur. Very odd.

So I'm still on 7.2 and I have a problem

I've seen other people have but haven't seen if there was a solution. When my phone is on silent it won't vibrate for text messages. But it will for other things. Also this may have nothing to do with gingerblur. I'm going to flash sbf when I get home to test. But I can't send or receive pictures through text messaging either.
