Update

Update for everyone...

Beta 7 will fix quite a few bugs and (finally) include an uninstaller that will restore your backup if GB isn't working out for you. Also, the aRoot script embedded will be modified to work better.

For now, if you have problems, feel free to ask for help here and I will get to you as soon as I can. I have a lot of work (off of XDA) to do this week. Next week I will be devoting myself to GingerBlur a whole lot.

If you're an expert or you know the solutions to others' problems, please help out in this thread. I love XDA so much when I see people helping each other out.

Common problems:

My root, sideloading, tethering isn't working properly! - install aRoot to fix

Calendar widget broken! - Sorry! If you don't remove bloatware, it'll work alright. Fix coming!

Facebook contacts not syncing - Sorry! If you don't remove bloatware, it'll work alright. Fix coming!

Exchange contacts not syncing - Sorry! If you don't remove bloatware, it'll work alright. Fix coming!

I'm only seeing some of the GingerBlur features, or something is broken - Install Adeo to go back to a mostly stock look and feature set

I'm stuck in a boot loop - Try to pull the battery and restart the phone. If that doesn't work, you're stuck using the SBF to flash back to stock. THIS IS WHY IT SAYS "BETA!"
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Fixter:
When can we expect it? :D You know I think a clean SBF and then flash this is the best idea.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] TheDude:
Ok, there is most certainly something wrong with your root script ;) rooting again with DG aroot fixed all my issues! Must be something wrong with the apn sql update that shouldn't be there anyway :) The native android hotspot is lame and I hate seeing messages to call att, because I hate talking to att. Just push wifi-tether apk out by default, remove wifi hotspot from settings, comment out DG's apn update and call it even better! ;)

Two questions..

Is there no transparent drop down menu? Just curious..

I sill had to sign in to moto bs on boot. Is that correct? Didn't know if all of the moto crap was removed.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
I have a really tough schedule the next few days. Come Friday, I will be free to dedicate my time to this project. I'm sure that I will be able to push out B7 or at least B6.5 (with corrected aRoot) within a couple of days.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
Removing the moto sign in would cause infinite problems with the phone. :rolleyes: I hate the stupid Blur service.

No transparent menu, because Gingerbread doesn't have a transparent menu! Perhaps I will add transparent menu MOD/option later once the installer is more stable.

I will work on the aRoot script ASAP! That's my number one priority... because root, sideloading, tethering are major features. Calendar widget, Facebook pictures in contacts --> a little less important. ;)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jakmal:
no mms

i finally install the ginger and everything work fine but the mms service its not. everytime that i send a massage it does not go thru.

anyona knows about this??

thanks
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
Don't know how that could be. I would try restarting your device. If that doesn't work, you'll need to try reflashing GB-B6 or going back to stock.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
Testing Beta 6.5 with different aRoot process. I wish RSD Lite worked faster... like Odin.

Beta 6.5 will be posted first on my Twitter for those who want to be a part of the test group.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] motoatrix:
Thanks kennethpenn for all your hard work, i'll be patiently waiting for your release of GB7.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] cordell507:
want to know

will this delete the placement of apps on my home screen and also i use launch-x pro for some of them
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
If you use LauncherPro, then LauncherPro will keep almost everything except for a few of the themed/changed apps and widgets.

If you use the Blur launcher, then you will lose all the placements on your screens.

This ROM has a built in launcher that comes blank by default.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] cordell507:
ok thanks i'll just write down where everything is but thank you so much for you're part in this "ROM"
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
aRoot is definitely broken in GB B6. Until I get B6.5 up and running, it is best to run the installer and then root with aRoot.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xXxSamxXx:
Why is this recommended our what are the advantages?

[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
It isn't necessary but it ensures a smoother install usually.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xXxSamxXx:
Ok thanks, and sorry but one more quick question if I flash the sbf will it delete all my apps? And I will have to use TiBu?

[Atrix 4G Android Development] leets4uc3:
Yo kennethpenn, awesome work! I was a bit skeptical at beta 1 but when 5 came out I had to try it! I so glad I did because its awesome! I have not had 1 problem! I looking forward to more updates. Do think you could put in the 4g mod instead of the H it looks awesome and I think everyone would like it.

Thanks again!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] :
I second the 4G mod instead of H+

thread here!

[Atrix 4G Android Development] jjwatmyself:
Much appreciated feedback. Can you list the file changes you made regarding reverting to the 2.2 Moto config that you described. I'm trying to understand what the dependency is with the car dock for the track screen to function. With this in place, I would assume that the Music 3.0 app from Market would install correctly. I say this as otherwise, owners of stock Atrix devices would be breaking their car dock integration for the Music application (or would have installs failing).
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ranova:
yeah, Ill ask my coworker tomorrow to install the music app on his stock atrix. One report in the Apps and themes forum says they cant install it. Someone posted the APK of the new music app, I havent had a chance to try it
[Atrix 4G Android Development] prauch2k:
Great work on this. Love it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] chaosjh:
anybody notice the hdmi center is broken or is it just me. i thought i messed something up so i rds back to stock ota-ota to .87, root n sideload, recovery, flash rom. twice, broken both times...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] OSNPA:
I decided tonight I would try installing the webtop hack to see what that was all about. Flippin' sweet! Watching Family Guy on Hulu fullscreen on the HDTV. Nevermind the fact that I have this episode on my DVR, it was just a test. :p
[Atrix 4G Android Development] CyberPunk7t9:
Alright guys, I stayed up too long trying to get webtop mod working that my eyes hurt!

I received another new Atrix phone, mine is already hosting gingerblur 3.1.

So with the new Atrix..

I flashed 1.5.7 SBF --> Then 1.8.3 SBF --> Gingerbreak root -> Glad enable side loading --> Webtop V8 script -- > (tested webtop, works good) --> Tenfar's CWM installed --> CWM'ed gingerblur 3.1 --> CWM'ed Nottach's Blues theme --> (webtop button is still there if I plug in the micro HDMI cable, but inside webtop everything on my TV gets black except the phone screen view )... What is wrong?

As for my Atrix already running GB 3.1, Which file to CWM in order to enable webtop?

I tried the V8 script in this thread:

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

And the CWM from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12580345&postcount=634

Now I gotta go get some sleep and check with you guys later.

Thanks to all in advanced and please excuse all the noobness!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] chaosjh:
i forgot, i also installed the "bloat", after, i tried flashing back to just 3.1, still no go. and i made sure it worked at 1.87 stock and rooted. twice now, it has to be this rom somewhere...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] OSNPA:
Did you edit the build.prop file to hdmi.mirroring=false? Gingerblur installs HDMI mirroring, and this conflicts with webtop.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] chaosjh:
does it conflict with the entertainment center?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
changing what he told you to change should fix issues with displaying videos
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jjwatmyself:
I was able to test with the older Music.apk that you posted. All worked flawlessly. I then tested with the new Music Beta and fond that the result was the same as installing via Market. I found that the options/settings do not show up. This is in contrast to the settings that show in the version included in GingerBlur.

I think it would make sense to take the comments on the Music applications to a separate thread. That is where I'll be on this one.

he wasn't talking to me, but it did fix the problem. OP should have had that changed. anyway, best rom avail, love it with honeycomb theme flash and blue steel over that. very...blue. anyways thanks for the help.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] EGM92:
I've got a Bell Atrix running the 2.1.1 SBF. If I start using Gingerblur will the phone be wiped again upon install? Also when new versions come out is it possible to upgrade to them without starting over?

Thanks.

It was a small thing but so anoying !
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sway0:
Hi guys,

I'm new in android so sorry for that noobish question but i just installed gingerblur. Is the fingerprint sensor working for you?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] henrys01:
Mine works. However, I have a coworker that had a problem with the fingerprint scanner even before I put gingerblur on his phone. Pulling the battery out and letting the phone sit for a while seemed to fix the problem.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] henrys01:
OTA notification oddness

I've put gingerblur on two phones (my own and a coworkers). On both I did the 1.26 -> 1.57 -> 1.83 ota upgrades, root then gingerblur. This was a few weeks ago. Both of us started getting OTA update notifications this week. I check my version and it says 1.57! :confused: Really strange. I know I updated both phones to 1.83. Anywho, I loaded the 1.83 sbf on both phones and they seem to be working but my coworker is still getting the ota notification.

Should I do the 1.83 sbf, wipe and try again?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] CyberPunk7t9:
Yes I did. The problem I have is different as I described.. Webtop starts then everything around the phone screen view is just black. I can interact with the phone screen view.. but everything around it is black.

Anyone has gingerblur 3.1 and webtop mod working? How?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] OSNPA:
Yes, I have it working. I installed the zip in the gingerBlur OP through CWM and edited the build.prop. That's all.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] gera4ever94:
What if I don't have the 3D gallery? Before installing Gingerblur, I deleted the 3D gallery apk and replaced it with the stock gallery apk. So the 3D gallery isn't even on my phone.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] CyberPunk7t9:
Mind explaining more? As in you CWM'ed the V8 script from the webtop mod thread? Or?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] calvin398:
Hey guys, FYI you can revert back to stock by flashing the 1.8.3 update over GingerBlur. I was experiencing serious battery drain issues so I switched back.

edit: nvm, the bloatware is still deleted. Easy to restore though.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Bracemg:
Is there lag when press the app launcher and using live wallpapers? Like a reduced frame rate? I know this is an issue on stock, just wondering if there is a frame rate reduction with the gingerblur animation.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] CyberPunk7t9:
Oh Thanks. Instructions in this vid worked for me:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTiIDp2jhQY&feature=player_embedded#at=42

:) Finally.. gingerblur 3.1 + webtop mod :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
In short: yes.

this isn't due to GingerBlur, but due to the fact that you must do a factory reset on your Bell device for it to boot into GingerBlur in the first place, however, any subsequent updates on GingerBlur versions will not wipe any of your data in the same manner.

follow these instructions to the letter and you're good to go
[Atrix 4G Android Development] humjaba:
Can someone for the love of all that is holy explain to me how to get rid of the stupid double message notifications? Or at least go back to the stock messaging app? I tried freezing/disabling "Messaging 2.2.1" but that stopped incoming messages from showing up in my inbox. I tried using titanium backup to uninstall GO SMS pro but the stock app still isn't back.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] hegemytouch:
Rooting and flashing was a success!...love the rom great work...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] undisputedfb:
do you have fancy widgets pack 2 installed? that was doing the same to me until i got rid of pack 2 and voiula, no more double notification. also make sure notifications are disabled in the messaging app
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ethantarheels123:
sorry for this stupid question, but I want the moto keyboard back. What should I do? Do I just copy the motokeyboard.zip file onto my phone and browse to it via astro file explorer and unzip it and run the apk?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] beatphreek:
No, copy it to your phone and then use System Recovery to boot into recovery mode and install it from there. Just like you did Gingerblur.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] INSM Sin:
No, you will flash it via CWM
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ricko2169:
From what i can gather it seems to crap out when displaying a folder or pics that were put their before it was installed. Especially thumbnail previews or cached pics from apps.

Delete every pic from your phone (back up first).

Then restore your photos folder by folder testing in between.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jcjr81:
So I just got the ota update notification. Should I go ahead and run it?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] humjaba:
I'm not seeing this setting for the standard messaging app.. Any idea where I'd go to find that?

[Atrix 4G Android Development] jcjr81:
Meh. When I install it the phone freezes on the /!\ Android boot screen. Any suggestions?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jnizzle:
anyone besides me find the slow blinking notification bar during phone calls annoying? Even more so now with gingerblur because all the icons are similar in that green color. Anyway to disable that?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bl0wf1sh:
I don't see a reply to this one yet - so here goes: It seems you have installed a secondary SMS app such as GoSMS (if not, then I don't know what causes it; but you may want to install one in this case).

Go to the stock messaging app, and uncheck the notifications in settings.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] henrys01:
On the two phones I've modified I had to install the 1.83 SBF file with vcdlite to get it back up to the latest version then re-install gingerblur 3.1. However, one of the phones is still getting the ota notification. :confused:
[Atrix 4G Android Development] roharia:
Kenneth I've been here since beta 4 or 5, and I have watched gingerblur to blossum into a fantastic ROM; I would just like to say thanks!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] hegemytouch:
Been using the rom for almost a day now and I love it...much thanks...now I under stand that this is a gingerbread theme rom with some extras...any word if we will ever get a rom that is 2.3? Like actually gingerbread not just themed?...thanks a lot guys...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] roharia:
Some Atrix dev's have been working on the bootloader and are apparently fairly close, once they do that we can put whatever we want on here :D

Well that's great news...I'll stay alert for that...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] joyo22:
Well I finally got my phone and laptop dock and I love them.

Everything is working great with Gingerblur 3.1. Only thing, is there a solution for the OTA update notification?

Thanks!

I don't believe it's the bootloader they are close to cracking, but are close to 2nd init. The bootloader will most likely never be cracked.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] lyon21:
So what's faster? This or greyblur? I like both, just want the faster one.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] lyon21:
Ken, any chance we will see a lock animation anytime soon? Like the one from stock gingerbread. It makes it look like the top and bottom come together and meet in the middle when it locks. Also, I have been on this or greyblur since you released beta 5 of gingerblur. Great job man! Wish I had some money to donate. Hopefully soon!

[Atrix 4G Android Development] CaelanT:
Kenneth, I'm hoping you can explain the following:

Before yesterday evening I was on GingerBlur 3.1 over 4.1.83. Before I installed GingerBlur 3.0 and subsequently 3.1, I flashed 4.1.26, then OTA to 4.1.57, then OTA to 4.1.83, so I had a nice clean platform for GingerBlur.

After all was said and done I ran speed tests, which I do every day as a matter of course "just because" and was seeing an average of 2.5Mbps d/l and 1.2Mbps u/l right up until last night.

Last night I flashed back to 4.1.26, then OTA to 4.1.57, then OTA to 4.1.83 before installing GladiAtrix 3. After installing GladiaAtrix 3 I ran speed tests again using the same location, (Boston, Comcast), and am now seeing an average of 4.5Mbps dl, and 1.2Mbps u/l. I almost broke 6Mbps d/l on one test last night. I have come to work this morning and am getting the same results. Prior to the wipe and GladiAtrix 3 install I never saw those speeds at work either.

As far as I know you never messed with any radio settings, or anything which would affect data speed, so I thought I would post what I am seeing in the hope the cause can be pinpointed. I very much doubt the cell towers around my home or work suddenly changed last night in the hour or so between me having GingerBlur 3.1 and changing to GladiAtrix 3.

Hoping you may be able to shed some light on this.

Cheers!

1) does this rom suffer the same fate?

2) If i install this rom, does it do a complete wipe, or will all my apps/etc be intact?
