Well if you notice, Greyblur hasn't been updated in quite a while, where as Gingerblur was updated this month.

With the expectation of Motorola/AT&T releasing a full Gingerbread update within the next several weeks (it was stated somewhere June/July release) I doubt Kenneth is spending a lot of time updating the Froyo P-Roms.

Long Story Short.... if you want latest version go with Gingerblur.

You can theme it up with great themes from the Theme forum. And the theming is the main difference between Greyblur and Gingerblur, besides newest tweaks on Ginger since it's been updated recently.

I had a quick question. I am running GreyBlur on my phone right now but I want to switch over to Gingerblur. Since grey is running 1.5.7, do I first need to flash to stock then to gingerblur or can I just flash straight away?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] n1ckr0th:
i have the SAME exact problem! i'm glad others are experiencing this. i have GB's of space free in every storage option. i hope this gets fixed by Moto or ATT or whoever.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rexamillion59:
no i was only rooted and had web top mod on ota 1.8.3 scince the time it was released i never blured agin till a couple days ago i had tryed gingerblur in the early stages if i start over and flash ota 1.5.7 i wont lose every thing in my phone right ??? thank agin for reply
[Atrix 4G Android Development] JVogler:
Just to spare everyone some frustrations, unless you have some major issues, you might want to just wait out the next few weeks as 2.3 based things are on the way and most likely focus will be on that rather than fixing 2.2 bugs.

right on thanks ill play with this awhile befor i flash back thanks for the help

Can it be used on French OLYEM_U4_2.1.1 ?

Sorry if this question was asked before but this thread got pretty big....

It says not for Bell Atrix. What if Bell Atrix is running the French .sbf the OLYEM_U4_2.1.1 ?

I want to switch from GreyBlur and try this theme.

Thanx!!!

How can i launch webtop? i have disabled hdmi mirror in buildprop but i do not get webtop popup when i connect hdmi cable.

any one?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Silly question, but are you connecting it to a tv, and not to a computer?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ronaldo_9:
i'v tried both mate, since installing greyblur and gingerblur i do not have webtop pop up.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Well, you won't get it on a computer, since an HDMI port on a pc is a HDMI out and not a HDMI in, like a tv...

huummm... saw you tried posting in the webtop thread... can't find the 1.83 download link though...

**Edit**

Might try re-installing gingerblur (the full version)... I was pretty sure that gingerblur enabled the webtop mod, and you just had to edit the build.prop so that the you could get the videos to play in entertainment center.

I have a adb script for the webtop mod for 1.83 sbf, but I can't attach it b/c the file size is to large. I thought that I had downloaded it from the main webtop mod thread, but I don't see any links for 1.83... I'll try looking around and make sure it wasn't on another thread.

Found it:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1015630&highlight=webtop

No wonder my .zip file was to big... had my backup files in it too. :p

Just download the WebtopMod1.1_updatedV8.zip at the bottom of the OP, and give it a go.

if switching from greyblur to this, do I have to flash stock? or can I just flash straight from SD?

Hey, rexamillion, to use rsd, you need to shut off the phone then hold the power button + volume up. Other wise it doesn't show in rsd

Small annoyance i've noticed...

I cannot double tap my home button and pull up my text messages...even though it is set for that option. Anyone else have that problem? It works for the browser, voice commands...but not text messaging.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] cnewsgrp:
I have same question. I would say YES because Gingerblur requires 1.8.3 OTA update.

Can someone who has done this please confirm.?

How to get 1.8.3 OTA?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] J-man67:
Sure it does. I just plug the phone in, then click show, then select my file, then start. It then reboots and starts the flash.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ronaldo_9:
Thanks for that mate but i flash 1.8.3 sbf and then flashed gingerblur, but i deleted hdmi app, modded buildprop and included dlna app etc

now all working fine

Where can I find the 1.8.3 sbf? j/k

I have some app data I backed up using Titanium when I was on Greyblur a long time ago. Anyone know if I could run into anything more serious than it just not working restoring that data to same app, but now on GingerBlur 4.5? I can't see it affecting anything else, but rather wait out a response from someone who knows for sure before I mess anything up too much.

thanks

Gingerbread/blur

I see on the BM site that people are wondering why KP will not release the Gingerbread code for the Atrix that he just acquired... I'm sure that he has promised whoever gave it to him that he wouldn't... He is a man of his word so take that for what it worth as integrity has fallen to a new low in our present helter-skelter world.

He is most likely working away on some new variation that can be applied to the GBlur P-Rom. Others are working on cracking the Atrix Bootloader.

Patience is a Virtue...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] erick161:
anyone else with this problem?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] krad54:
Are you sure its not set to messaging instead of text messaging? Because if it is, then the messaging app may have been deleted in the bloatware removal.

I've still been riding out GreyBlur for a while since the news of the 2nd init and gingerbread coming in a few weeks, hoping out for a true rom. But I'm starting to think maybe I should just switch into Gingerblur now.

Anyone want to drop 2 cents as to what I should do
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Jnewell05:
Anyone seen issues when installing Google music Beta. It seems to overwrite the stock music app and then dosen't keep the market link. Just annoying.

Was wondering if someone had the music.apk for the stock music player so that i could reinstall it. Tried pulling one from the 1.5.7 update but get an error when trying to install via adb.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jjwatmyself:
It is in the older gingerblur zip file. Also, you do not need to install the new music app from market as is already in the gingerblur 4.5 file.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] erick161:
I made sure it wasnt. I have text messaging selected..

can someone please make a transition animation from the lockscreen to the homescreen? kinda like greyblur? it looks very ugly how it just jumps to homscreen.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Rayan:
You can try Anim Mod, its free on the Market

It works great throughout the UI

Anyone running the Hulu app and getting ads to play? I have found that everything is find except when an ad plays at which point it clocks (old school term). The screen says buffering... but that's just because the person who wrote the code didn't want to differentiate between waiting for first packet received, vs. "we're actively building a video buffer".

Ok.. the point is that I believe that GB employs a host block that might be interfering with Hulu.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] dLo GSR:
tried to restore bloatware after doing the bootloader unlock with Tenfar's NEW CWM (the one you can fastboot flash), and it says that the scripting used it no longer compatible.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] hoodlikegaza:
Ken, can make sure the update for gingerbread doesn't break social networking in the contacts app...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] dLo GSR:
For the new CWM, here is the error when trying to use the bloatware.zip:

"Amend scripting (update-script) is no longer supported. Amend scripting was deprecated by Google in Android 1.5. It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to CWM 3.0 GB-based recover. Please switch to Edify scriptying (updater-script and udpate-binary) to create working update zip packages. Installation aborted."
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
It works with the regular gingerblur.zip though... I would try copying the contents of the Google folder in the regular gingerblur.zip over to the restore bloatware.zip and replace the files if they are in that .zip as well. Remember to set compression to none if it ask you. Flash that and see if it will work.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] dLo GSR:
well the regular GB update-script file is very different from the bloatware update-script, plus it has an update-binary file that the bloat one doesn't so i don't know if they're compatible that way.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] MXIIA:
What is going to happen to this with the onset of the unlocked bootloader? Will this become a full ROM?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] abhinayp:
One question

I just got an Atrix and rooted it..

And i have 1 question... Since the official gingerbread is almost around the corner(may be next month?), should i be waiting for the GingerBread or should i go ahead with GingerBlur now?

Sorry if I sounded Noob :|
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jjwatmyself:
It will be good practice to run GB 4.5 plus give you a sense of Kenneth's vision for the Atrix. I would not hesitate to install GB.4.5
[Atrix 4G Android Development] JVogler:
I was having ads play fine...but that was a few versions of GB ago, and a few versions of Flash ago also. I believe it was the same implementation of ad blocking, unless GB updated the method of ad blocking along the way.

Do hulu ads build a buffer? I know when I'm on a slow connection, the videos always play fine after an initial buffer, but when it comes to the ads, they will stutter through the whole thing, then back to smooth for video.

EDIT: Just noticed you were referring to the hulu app, of which I havnen't used yet.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] roharia:
I'm on Beta 5, waiting for Beta 7 before I upgrade, whats the ETA?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
Probably a couple days. Two more days of finals!

If Beta 5 works for you, do not upgrade. No new features, just a changed installer.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] roharia:
Good luck, I had my ACT's yesterday, hope I did well

Looking forward to 7!

Also, I honestly liked the motoblur launcher part with the dialer and contact and drawer button, is there a way to keep everything and revert that back to original state?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] roharia:
Basically, keep it looking like it is right now however revert the bottom menu on home screens back?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] shahuln:
Hi Guys,

I installed gingerblur beta 5, can any answer is it safe to do factory reset?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] itzchase:
I downloaded it and its working great right now. Say I want to go back to stock, how would I do that?

And when there is a major update or the final version comes out, do I have to go back to stock or can I just plug it in and do the process over again. Thank you.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jkurl:
Install he launcher. It has the motoblur launcher.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] JayRolla:
That would defeat the purpose of this ROM. Its suppose to look like a stock gingerbread ROM.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] roharia:
No it wouldn't, not completely - I want everything to remain the same except for that small menu, the ROM still does other things such as Root the phone etc
[Atrix 4G Android Development] roharia:
Should be a future add:

The old-school television lock animation when you lock your phone, that should definitely be added.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] shahuln:
I installed beta 5, couple of days back. After that, my battery performance is really bad. It lasts only for 8 to 9 hours with very minimal use. Before installing this ROM i used to get more than 24 hours battery life. Is there any way I can fix this issue?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] JayRolla:
True, but I guess its just opinion, I hated everything about Blur and wanted it gone.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] roharia:
Really? I'm getting better battery life, if you have that live wallpaper that might be why, take it off - seriously my battery has actually seen improvement, and I'm definitely using less ram
[Atrix 4G Android Development] shahuln:
I am not using any live wallpaper, but my battery performance decreased very much. I am wondering how this can be fixed.

What do battery stats say? Is everything installed same as before beta 5? Is phone idle taking up most battery or display?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] shahuln:
Phone idle process is taking most of the battery. After installing beta 5, i noticed flash player was not installed, then i installed it from the market.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] lsxrx7:
No problem on my battery here. Try 6.5 or 7 I guess.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] lostinbeta:
So after flashing back 1.83 SBF, rooting, unlocking bootloader, installing new CWM... whenever I try and Flash GingerBlur it soft bricks my device. I tried the Early USB Enumeration trick with no luck. This just sucks :( I can't get my device to boot up at all without re-flashing the 1.83 SBF and starting over. I love GingerBlur but this will be the 3rd time I am doing this process in the past 24 hours so I guess I'm just stuck with stock (not really interested in trying a buggy 2.3.4 build).

Any ideas on what the problem could be or if it can be fixed?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] LayzeeEyez:
I don't think it works with the new CWM.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] lostinbeta:
I didn't think so. I didn't really see any posts about it in the thread about it (unless I missed it) so I figured it was worth a shot at least and now I know I'm not being stupid and doing something wrong.

Thank You.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] LayzeeEyez:
Nah, I just some different coding or something, I don't know that exact details, but you could still install the old one and use it. Don't know it you have to uninstall the new one tho, probably do, don't know how tho lol
[Atrix 4G Android Development] lostinbeta:
It's not that serious. It sucks, but either Kennethpenn will release a fix for this P-ROM, or we will get the official update soon enough, or a functional blur-free AOSP ROM or other ports will start making their way over. Either way I'm sure it won't be long until we don't have to deal with stock MotoBlur anymore...lol. This is why I love xda and the amazing devs that work so hard for the Android community!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] hoodlikegaza:
Does anyone know how to fix what ever it is in gingerblur that breaks social networking in contacts..... It's preventing my contacts to update when friends are added to facebook....
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jjwatmyself:
I prefer syncmypix as adds pictures to gmail contacts instead of linking on the phone.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nalomo:
Well said..
[Atrix 4G Android Development] hoodlikegaza:
The pictures don't bother me as much as the fact NEW contacts aren' t even accesible when added on facebook... That' s the issue that' s turning into a deal breaker for me using gingerblur....
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jjwatmyself:
The feature you are describing is a motoblur feature set in which case you can select the piecies of bloarware you want to install from the bloat zip file to get all this back. kenneth won't make that part of the default gingerblur zip as it is not part of google's native gingerbread build.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] hoodlikegaza:
That rationalization would make sense if it could replace the stock contacts app without breaking it... Unfortunately it doesnt, and we're left with a half-functional stock contacts app, that even replaced, still doesnt work properly because of tbe data supplied by the stock app...

Complete fail.

And on notification bar it appears that i connected the cable and let me choose between entertainment center and webtop.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jjwatmyself:
Just to be clear, I'm describing the essence of gingerblur. If you have a contribution that pertains to native gingerbread feature sets and bugs in gingerblur, this thread is the place to post it. With regards to facebook contact integration, I believe that is a motoblur feature.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Young Cardiac:
Any info on future updates?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] hoodlikegaza:
Wow, how hard is it to understand that "natively", gingerblur BREAKS the STOCK messaging app? If that's the stance you're taking, it would make more sense to completely replace the STOCK messaging app, with something that WORKS, instead of leaving the STOCK messaging app partly functional.

How many android phones have you used? Can you show me 1 (one) that has been released in the last year that doesn't integrate FACEBOOK into the contacts "NATIVELY"?

FAIL
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jjwatmyself:
As I said, feel free too use the bloat zip file to implement the full blur experience, including moto's own messaging app. I think you'll find that you can achieve exactly what you are looking for. If you are having issues with messaging prior to performing this, you may find that re-applying the full gingerblur4.5 resolves your issue. I mention this as having followed this thread for a very long time and there have not been any reports of this issue.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] starrwulfe:
What he's saying is motoblur is NOT stock giherbread. Facebook IS NOT natively supported by any build of android. That's the point of gingerblur.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] barry99705:
Anyone see the Moto keyboard like on the first post that works with the latest CWM? When I try to flash that keyboard it gives a scripting error.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jjwatmyself:
I installed it with no problems. I did not notice a scripting error. It is not uncommon that two reboots are needed after installation for it to show up. I prefer it as in landscape the keys are square.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] barry99705:

[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
