Ken will running the uninstaller reset back to stock with no issues in case i trade this phone ???
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
If you need to trade in the phone, flash the stock 1.2.6 SBF file. The uninstaller just reverses some GingerBlur mods.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] neer2005:
I do not know if this is GingerBlur 7.2s fault but I do see less battery life since 6.5
[Atrix 4G Android Development] LancerV:
Exchange not working either on 7.2 :o
[Atrix 4G Android Development] LancerV:
Neither one of my exchange servers will work, for whatever reason I could get them to work on 6.5 but on 7.2 they wont, it always says cant find server :confused:

Will this include support for the Bell Atrix cause im picking up tomorrow and i plan on installing this as soon as i get it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] live4nyy:
Please read the entire thread. this has already been discussed. I know it a million pages but that's what it takes.

Anyone getting network issues? Keep losing connection for some reason.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] leroyducketts:
I reboot my Atrix about 2 times before it found the "host". Try a reboot, not Power Off. Emails seem to be flowing now.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] DannyV94:
GingerBlur 7.2 is NOT yet compatible with the Bell Atrix. So if the new version does not come out tomorrow, I would suggest not to install it. Still not sure even if the new version will support Bell or not. Sorry, just here helping out and getting help myself. Also, i did have a question though. How necessary is it to have a full battery when flashing to a stock SBF?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
It's a just-in-case kind of thing.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] franciscojavierleon:
it isn't necessary, it's just a precaution. it takes about 10-15 minutes to flash, and the phone won't recharge while it is flashing, but the battery drain is little. still, i would advise at least 50%
[Atrix 4G Android Development] leroyducketts:
I have been experiencing some network issues with 7.2. I was connected to my companies wireless domain. I was able to download about an app and half before the network dropped out on my Atrix. I had to reboot in order to get my connection back. I did however noticed that if I changed my Network APN from AT&T US HSDPA to AT&T US my wireless works perfectly. None too happy about dropping speeds but things are flowing again.

Was running GB6.5 -> SBF Flash -> GB7.2
[Atrix 4G Android Development] milesjohnson:
Tried PMing you back Ken but couldn't get it sent :( What I was trying to say was that with the gingerblur messaging app, (I removed bloatware) Whenever someone sends me a message whos number i have saved on my phone, not thru facebook, it doesn't show their name, just a number. Whereas when I get a message from someone who is just synced through facebook, it shows their name. Why would this only affect the gingerblur messaging and not the stock messaging even though I had bloatware removed both times
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
So yeah that works... just FYI if you don't wanna go through the whole flash process again, just get the necessary file from the thread in the Themes & Apps forum, and copy/paste with rootexplorer.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ronj1986:
HECK NO!!!!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] h8rift:
Anyone using the laptop dock? Mine doesn't seem to initialize after installing 7.2. Everything else works great.

No webtop mod

No hdmi mirroring mod

Left bloatware on

Already attempted a reboot

When I plug it in and open it up to initialize webtop, I just get a black screen, and my phone is still staring at me like its just charging :(. I'll either re-do it or uninstall....I was just curious if anyone else's laptop dock is working on 7.2.

Thanks for your time,

Damn just started downloading 4. I take a nap, have dinner and beta 4-5's out.

Which is cool. I was stuck on att logo on Beta 1. Went back to sbf, loaded Adeo v1 and v2, and tried Beta 1 during dinner. I was going to give up.

Great job all !!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] fRenZy-_-:
you should modify it so we have a choice on either lanscape portrait and or auto rotate?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
SBF flashing so that I can properly test the Beta 5 version.

Hopefully Beta 5 fixes the last of the stuck-on-boot problems. Fingers crossed!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] dandmcd:
I'm ready to test beta 5 the moment you put it up, I was one of those with stuck on boot issues in beta 1. I go away for a couple hours and look at the progress you have made, very nice!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
I owe it all to the amazing testers in this thread helping me out!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Schultz_91:
Same here!!! :D:D
[Atrix 4G Android Development] stvmac11:
any way you can add the upgrade to the new swype beta, since it supports the atrix, qHD? thus removing the previous installed one

just a though ;)

(since you were mentioning swype in a previous post)

thanks for all the hard work!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ANDY12001:
Is the hdmi mirroring support landscape and horizontal mode?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
The problem is that the new Beta is exclusive to members of the program. Once I rip it out with the APK and library, I will add it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] :
Dosen't the Swype beta require an "activation" of sorts? which would only be good on one phone. (someone please correct me if i'm wrong)

but if you do have access to the swype beta, it installs perfectly fine following this thread's instructions

EDIT: Sniped by mere seconds...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] fRenZy-_-:
are we able to drag and drop on the dock? like remove the browser and put in another shortcut?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Schultz_91:
This is a beta, not yet, be patient! :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
This is the stock Gingerbread launcher. None of that is available in the stock Gingerbread launcher, so none of it will be available on this ROM.

In the future, I may bring in a better launcher. This one has atrocious app drawer fade times... it takes forever for that stupid fade effect. :p
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jkurl:
Not for sure what happen on Beta 3 but it named my gallery to false. which is weird and the cool thing is it still worked just fine.

Loading Beta 4 now and watch when I get this one done you will launch Beta 5. lol
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xXxSamxXx:
Just wondering since I really really wanna try out this amazing theme does anyone have any idea what more needs to be fixed before we get out of beta? I'm not trying to be pushy our anything just solely wondering :)

Sent from my Rooted, chilled, and webtop modded Atrix 4G
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Schultz_91:
To be honest, it is very stable. Just make sure to follow directions, and if you get bricked, just flash the SBF file (theres a help thread). Not difficult at all :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] :
Beta 5 should be pretty close to a RC, unless he wants to add more features, because sofar the biggest issue has been the initial boot which has gotten ALOT better than Beta 1, and if aRoot is added successfully to B5, it will be a nearly perfect Stock -> "ROM" in one click :D

also, i just finished flashing a fresh SBF, just waiting for B5!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] lsxrx7:
personal perference : go launcher
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
Yeah hopefully I fixed the Gallery problems. We'll see.

Just wait for Beta 5.

Any one figure out how to fix the fingerprint scanner with out sbf flashing
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sdlopez83:
Wow god forbid I cant check this thread for a day. and it blows up with pages and pages of homework.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] toughbax:
Ken has said he will TRY and work on a Bell version, possibly for 7.5, BUT he needs people with the Bell version to test it for him. Since the Bell version can't use the SBF it is a risky thing (bricking your phone).

I can see it being an issue even if he can get it installing correctly on the Bells, we would have no way of flashing back to stock (from what I understand).

What are your thoughts on the Bell version Ken? From a technical standpoint you should be able to alter GB so that it works on the Bell easy enough, but without the SBF it seems like even if it works 99% of the time it might not be the best idea to flash it, since there is no going back. My knowledge on the subject is fairly limited though, so I could be making all this up as I go along.

Seems with no SBF for bell there is a limit to the modding we can do (safely).

Regardless if I ever get to use GingerBlur or not, you have done some amazing work, and you should be proud.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] franciscojavierleon:
Off topic, but since this is the most read thread on the atrix forums right now, some people will care about this.

Same here... all engines running full steam ahead. Actually my phone is a lot smoother and faster now, without the bloatwear.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] neer2005:
This is incorrect,3G means you have a HSPA connection while H means the 3.5G (I forget the exact name) is available.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
H = you have an HSDPA or HSDPA+ connection available (3.5G, kind of)

3G = you have a 36 connection available, not HSPA or HSPA+

E = Edge (2G, kind of)

G = GPRS (1G, kind of)

[Atrix 4G Android Development] Infinite-T:
So Far I am really liking this ROM quite a bit. Its a really cool feature to have it reload your apps and stuff after its flash!

Just one thing. I opted to remove the bloatware. However t he DLNA app and Task manager App are removed now. Both which I use and would like to have. Is there an easy way of restoring them without reflashing?

Thanks
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Well, you don't need a task manager app for the Atrix, it will free system resources as needed; but if you really want one, there are more than a few on the market (even better than stock).

Not sure about the DLNA.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rjohnstone:
I did a fresh sbf load first and then I installed 7.2.

Smooth as silk so far.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] JayWheelz:
Mines is the same. The finger scanner unlock works perfectly fine on mines. So far I haven't noticed anything out of the ordinary.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] franciscojavierleon:
checkout the removebloat.sh script in gingerblur. It will list whatever is removed, you just need to inverse whatever is there. Remove the .bak from DLNA.apk.bak and PerformanceManager.apk.bak in /System/app either through adb , root explorer or any file manager that has a rename feature
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Vigneshd:
Stupid question but if I want to re-install 7.2 do I have to reflash SBF?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
if it is because you have issues with your initial install of 7.2 it would make sense to flash back to the stock .sbf in between, for sure, just back your stuff up first and go for it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Vigneshd:
Thats what I thought, but I can't flash the SBF no matter what I try. I have al the drivers, RSDlite and every time I click "start" it says "flashing process failed" instantaneously lol.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bl0wf1sh:
Works nicely!

Installed GingerBlur yesterday, and already love it! Though there are some things that are not too great (yet!), but I am sure we are getting there ... :)

Things I love about it:

- Black status bar (I could never get used to the grey one on Atrix... it's so 2.2!)

- More space in the status bar (no carrier info) :D

- Gingerbread status bar icons

- Gingerbread application icons

- Generally, the theme :)

- More transitions

Minor things that do not work / are a bit inconvenient:

- The double sms bug. I fixed it by freezing Moto's Text Messaging app post Gingerblur install. I have to say, I kinda like Moto's messaging theme, but I was never happy with the lack of options (e.g., delivery reports). I tried freezing the GB stock one, did not fix the double sms bug. (Also, did not freeze the app :P )

- It is a bit confusing that there are two GB stock "Messaging" apps - one is the unified inbox, one is SMS. Not a problem, but maybe rename one of them.

- Would be great to be able to have an option to not show the stock battery icon, and just show a custom one instead... I have "Battery Monitor Widget", which shows in 1% increases.

- Directly after unlock, or after going to home screen, the swiping between home screens is a lot less sensitive than original stock. No big deal, but noticeable. Thinking of just using ADW.Launcher instead now.

- The blur widget for social networking updates (fb only for me) looks different but works (image less wide)... and the "social status" one used to be 1x1, now it is 4x1 (4 tiles wide), and does not work.

Great work! Donation coming soon!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] franciscojavierleon:
Task managers are unneeded on froyo on the sense that froyo will close apps EVENTUALLY. but if you open an app and want to close it right away , you NEED a task manager. (or the quick exit app from the market) If you close the app right away without waiting for the os, you will save battery (as long as it doesn't auto restart)

The facebook is one of the social apps that appears on the hidden phone info menu, so i just browse a little and when i am done i kill it. There are some apps that get restarted as soon as you kill them, so for those the task manager will actually decrease your battery life since it will get cpu (hence battery) to load them back.

If you use a task manager this way and don't put apps on the auto-end list, you will get better use of your phone. I hope this ends some of the myths due to misinformation that people have regarding task managers

Updated 7.1>7.2. Running Dolphin browser and trying to view some videos on hulu.com, it says "Unfortunately Hulu is not supported on your platform. we apoligize for any inconvenience." I did have Flash 10.2 downloaded from the market, is that why? Should I remove and rerun 7.2 upgrade?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] JayRolla:
The android OS has a memory leak. The longer it stays on the more memory it leaks, after a few days without a reboot or task killer I can get as low as 128mb ram which is not much on our device.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
did you try using the "adb devices" command when you were in command prompt? if you

cd C:\filepath to where your gingerblur file is save

then if you type the command:

adb devices

and if nothing shows up then it's your connection

if it isn't connection, then make sure you follow ALL the other instructions in this thread. otherwise i really have no idea why it wouldn't work
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Good call on the quick exit app... kinda like it. :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Did you try setting Dolphin browser to "Desktop" mode under setting?

Also, you can always get the custom mod file from the original thread in the themes and apps section of the Atrix forum, and then copy/paste with root explorer (make sure to delete original file too)... that's what I did,
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
make sure your settings match those mentioned in this post.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
if you install right over 6.5 there is no real need to backup everything. If you were installing the stock .sbf then install 7.2 you'd have to backup, but not if you're just updating.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jthornton71707:
Thanks. Are their really any noticeable differences from 6.5 to 7.2?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raybond25:
well, i'm with bell, so i haven't been able to install myself yet, but i do believe that facebook contact syncing is fixed, the launcher has been made quite a bit faster, and the keyboard and dialer have been changed. I would recommend updating, you probably have the few minutes it takes anyways, it's really not a difficult process.

Additional Feature

Kenneth, I have searched and searched and searched but have been unable to find a way to turn hepatic feedback off for the bottom 4 soft buttons (Menu, Home, Back, Search). There are apps in the market place that show that option (Spare Parts and Android Assistant) but when checked, do not stop the vibration. Is there another solution or possible a way to add that into this p.rom?

Thanks for all of your amazing hard work!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xXxSamxXx:

[Atrix 4G Android Development] jiggytom:
Fixed it. Installed flash player from market and then patched manually...sound and vids work now.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bearsfan172:
I'm pretty sure (feel free to correct) that this is built somewhere deep in the framework, and can't be turned off at all. So it is therefore not covered in this ROM. There is some app out there that will turn off ALL vibrations from the device, including the four bottom buttons. But I forget what it is. And it has the obvious consequence of the phone not vibrating when you want it to.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] live4nyy:
I'm going to have to correct you on one thing. Let's use your Facebook example. If you use the app, and lets say you have the refresh turned off, then when you close the app it stops using cpu and it doesn't have any effect on the battery, it's just been allocated ram. Now, for the same app, if you use the refresh settings and you kill the app after using it then you are wasting battery because it will restart itself when it reaches its refresh limit.

The OS only kills tasks when memory is needed, not because there's a time limit or anything. If you don't want an app like Facebook to use up battery when not in use then turn the refresh rate to manual or never. But, once again, the only time a task killer is needed is if an app has gone haywire and needs to be shutdown, period. I had that problem today with my Beautiful Widgets so I used SystemPanel to end it. Pretty much every and any app that uses background data will have a refresh setting so if you don't want a specific app using battery when not using just change the settings. Leave the task killers for emergencies.

Anyway, i just downloaded it from the market and replaced the one in gingerblur before installing 6.5
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Vigneshd:
Installing the 10.2 from the market now gives me a "We're sorry but your platform is not supported" message
[Atrix 4G Android Development] franciscojavierleon:
Facebook doesn't start when i boot up the phone, and after killing it i don't see it coming back. However if i kill "car dock" for example it restarts. You are right in saying that i should just disable the refresh internal but it was just an example. The point is that if the app doesn't restart by itself you can kill it right away
[Atrix 4G Android Development] franciscojavierleon:
that didn't happen last week to me, and i am not even on at&t. either try the market enabler app to fool the market into letting you get it or look for an alternative place to get it and sideload it
