Why did you do that, that was stupid. :p Did you have a titanium backup? One sec let me check something... brb

**Edit**

Nevermind... yeah go re-install gingerblur and see if that works.

And in the future don't go deleting things like the market, fingerprint sensor, and other important sensitive system things... or at least make a backup with Titanium backup first.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
Hey everyone!

I'm working on some cool new stuff for the next releases of GingerBlur. I hope you're enjoying what we have so far in v1.2.

Make sure to follow me on Twitter and check out my website. [/shameless plug]

Try flashing this in CWM to get your market back. Should work.

BTW, installing the "home" .apk from the bloatware.zip will allow the motorola calendar widget to work.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] PeePeeRAB:
I ran in to this issue, reboot fixed it. Also, I have it to where now if i want i can use the pattern instead of a password when not wanting to scan finger. I don't know if that was possible before, but i like it.

Hey ken...any way we can get the 3d app drawer in a future update?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jeffc:
Unfortunately I've rebooted lots of times since this mess and no luck. Something in the TB restore has the screen lock only part working and no way to control it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
As I've indicated before, the 3D app drawer was designed for lower resolution screens. If I bring it in, everything looks very silly. I'm not skilled enough to code my own.

You can try Launcher Pro if you want!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jeffc:
I guess that depends on how you want to connect to Exchange. If you want to use the motoblur 'Corporate Sync' client to connect and get full push notification support then GB wipes out that along with the rest of the moto bloatware.

But see previous posts, its very easy to add this back in after GB. But if you've never used the built in support be advised its features are very simple. If you want full calendar and task support, widgets for all the key functions, and being able to controll all kinds of Exchange things like out of office and all kinds of other things you take for granted in Outlook you might consider Touchdown the commercial application.

@Kenn is the FriendFeed.apk the one needed for the social networking tab in contacts
[Atrix 4G Android Development] joe ferreira:
ken,

You did state that if I was on 1.1 and did not have any issues I could skip the 1.1 to 1.2 update but could install it if I felt inclined.

I applied the gb 1.1 to 1.2 zip and upon first install my finger print reader did not work. I cleared the stored fingerprints and it seemed to work fine for a little bit.

after a few hours the fingerprint unlocker has been getting slower and slower and until my phone has randomly rebooted. it has done this a few times today.

I just wanted to let you know that I have had a few stability issues with the 1.1 to 1.2 update. I am going to try to install just 1.2 over the top and see if that makes it more stable. I will post results back in a little while.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
Not quite sure... but that sounds probable.

Hmm... very odd. Can't exactly say why it would ever affect your fingerprint reader.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bsp120167:
I think this may be a flaw in GB. I have this issue as well. I have been trying for a couple of hours to get the fingerprint reader to work with 1.2 and have been unable. If I go back to 7.7 it works fine. I have not restored with TB yet as I wanted to see if the fingerprint reader would work.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
Maybe a stupid question, but how do you uninstall the HDMI mod and the webtop mod? I'd like to keep those off for now, but I installed them. I don't really use them, but I'd like to not keep things as much as possible. Thanks.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Well, since you installed both of them, and they don't jive with each other, I doubt the HDMI mirroring will work at all right now (webtop usually wins out). You should be able to delete the HDMI mirroring by just deleting the app.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
Ok thanks. Just wasn't sure if the flash flashed anythign besides the app on there.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] joe ferreira:
set your security method to none.

then clear your fingerprint profile.

then reroll the fingerprint method.

It works but the phone reboots every once in a while.

I am finally getting to reinstall the full 1.2 over the 1.1 to 1.2 now. I will post results in about 20 mins.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Infinite-T:
OK, Maybe I am just dumb, but I want to reinstall the DLNA app that is romoved by this otherwise very nice ROM. I downloaded the big zip folder and tried to re-instal the DLNA app to the phone, its says "App not installed". I also tried moving it to the /system/app folder and it stil doesnt seem to work, can anyone advise me how to reinstall some of the stock apps that are removed by the rom?

Also, I can confirm that there is something wierd going on with the fingerprint scanner/ security unlock. If I set it to fingerprint, and use existing profile and exit. it doesnt work, only the slide unlock. If I reset the fingerprint, still no go, only slide unlock. Setting it to any other method doesnt seem to work. It always defaults to the sliding of the little lock icon to unlock it, no pin, no finger orint, no patern, etc. just the slider.. wierd.

Thanks
[Atrix 4G Android Development] dageniusal:
I'm trying that now. Thanks for the tip!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
To get DLNA back, you need to download the Restore Bloatware .zip, and then open the zip (don't unzip, just open it), and go to system/app/ and delete everything that is not the dlna apk file, then install the restore bloatware zip in cwm like you installed gingerblur.

Everyone seems to be having fingerprint sensor problems, except me... but then I didn't enable it till after I had installed gingerblur, and I did not restore any fingerprint data with titanium backup.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Serenikill:
I did this exact thing and also get random reboots. only been twice all day but still something that isn't optimal
[Atrix 4G Android Development] joe ferreira:
ok I reinstalled gingerblur 1.2 over the top and the same thing happens as it did when I first installed 1.1 to 1.2

upon first boot the fingerprint reader doesn't work

it also disabled my pin security

steps I am taking to try to resolve.

1. change the screen unlock security to none

Fingerprint recognized in part of the process to disable.

2. Clear stored fingerprints

3. setup screen lock for fingerprints

4. turn off screen and turn screen back on.

5. fingerprint reader is now working. slide2unlock also requires pin.

I will let you know if the phone starts rebooting again.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] GTTG_Atomik:
So I've been using 1.2 after a fresh flash for a few days... and now the default Messaging app is gone. Very weird since i have been using it fine. I've had to install GoSMS just to get SMS again. Anyway to get the one that came with GB and not the Motor one back?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jeffc:
I might have two problems at the same time. The first bing the problem you found with the reader not working. The second being I can't even get into the Change Screen Lock screen at all because it fails trying to talk to the fingerprint reader.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] gzrecoil:
+1. No issues here but I didn't touch any settings until after Gingerblur was installed.

Then I set up fingerprint scanner, and no problems.

Also did not restore any settings with titanium.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Infinite-T:
Bingo, that was it! Thanks!

I am also playing around with trying to get the fingerprint scanner working. I tried the disabling it, clearing the data, and resetting it. Still a no go. Ill continue to play with it and if I get a result, I'll post it. I did not restore any of the settings with TiBu either. When I noticed it wasnt active, I went to reactivate it and it asked if I wanted to use the old profile or set a new one, Ive tried both using the old profile and resetting it with no luck. Currently I have no security lock at all except swiping the "lock" icon, but atleast I havent had any reboots.. yet.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jeffc:
I'm thinking its 2 issues:

*Reader issues under 1.2

*Restore issue
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
just re-install gingerblur again
[Atrix 4G Android Development] GTTG_Atomik:
Can I just use CWM to reinstall the zip or do I have to go through 1.2.6 and update everything over?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
No, just re-install with CWM.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jeffc:
Fingerprint Screen Lock issues from Titanium Backup restore solved

Ok, I found the solution on the general forum.

If you've used Titanium Backup to restore settings and had the fingerprint screen lock turned on when you backed up you will find that the fingerprint screen lock doesn't work and you will be forced to use your pin to unlock. You will also find out that you can't get into the screen lock settings any more to make any changes in security.

****Anyone doing flashing of their Atrix using fingerprint security should be aware of this problem that can happen doing a restore****

It might be a good idea to turn off fingerprint security before backing up and then after you flash and restore you could turn it back on.

You will need:

adb.exe - look elsewhere on the forum to find this

So to fix it:

1) Open windows command prompt

2) change to the directory where adb.exe is

3) type "adb shell" and hit enter

4) at the prompt type su

5) On your Atrix screen Allow superuser

6) Enter SQLite using this command:

sqlite3 /data/data/com.motorola.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db

7) Enter these commands

delete from settings where name='lock_type';

delete from settings where name='lock_fingerprint';

delete from settings where name='lock_timer';

8) Close the command prompt

Then you can go into screen lock settings and make any changes including turning fingerprint security back on.

NOTE: with my fingerprint problems apparently solved, I have no idea if this relates to the other problems people are reporting with the sensor not working on GB1.2. I'm on GB1.2 and after fixing this I haven't seen any problems yet.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Good job! Persistence pays off. :D

Alternatively, if you don't want to adb, and you have root explorer and sqlite3 installed, you can navigate to /data/data/com.motorola.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db and when you open settings.db with sqlite, choose "settings"... the 3 settings listed above are towards the bottom of the list. I would assume you just change the values to 0. *Reboot may be required.

anybody know where the gingerblur wallpapers are located on the phone? widget locker defaulted to the original grey (brick looking) wallpaper for like an hour when I set it up, then went to my standard wallpaper later on. I liked the way it looked but I'd like to move the image to my gallery so I can point widgetlocker to it again
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:

SUPERUSER don´t works

Hi all!

First, sorry for my english!

I did this steps on http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12631216&postcount=2911, but i can´t through the part 3.

I did all the things and I didnt any error, but when I try to install the MOTOA4_Bootstrap_0404_1549-signed.apk the error appears: I cant install because its coming to unknown font.

What I have to do?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
hhhuummm... here try the newer CWM. Just unzip it and install on the phone. If it doesn't work, I also have the original one.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] brunnogama:
So, I used this!

I think my problem is like permissions to instal.. I have the superuser but i cant install anything, appears SYSTEM |RECOV|ERY and a message.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
If you have root explorer and SQLite Editor installed, you can try navigating to /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db, sqlite will open the .db and select "secure". #3 "instal_non_market_apps" should have a 1 for value, if not, edit it to have a 1, back out of sqlite twice, back to root explorer, and exit. Reboot phone. Then try.

**Edit**

I think your side loading is gone... You can enable it manually: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=969960
[Atrix 4G Android Development] brunnogama:
Hum...

I´m installing it now..

I just follow the steps on tutorial.. I have to do anything else?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
What the duce? It just decided to install all of the sudden?

Yeah, just follow all the steps and after you install the gingerblur .zip file in CWM, and reboot, you should have gingerblur v1.2.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] brunnogama:
So, when I try to install with the root explore I have the same warning...

"Securtity warnig: This app comes from an unknown source, and for your security only app from trusted sources can be installed".
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Try the above steps first, and if that doesn't work goto the other thread that was posted and try enabling through adb

**Edit**

Or try this to enable sideloading, since you're rooted already. It a script, so it will do it automatically for you. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1017373
[Atrix 4G Android Development] brunnogama:
So, I think I give up...

I cant be root!

I install SQLite, but it warning me i´not root.

This step Make sure you allow the superuser request (quickly) on your phone, dont show for me....
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
You installed the 2nd part of the retain root script after you updated to 1.57 right? Is the superuser app in your app drawer?

Does anyone else lose there wifi signal all the time on gingerblur? It only happens on gingerblur. It just disconnects on its own all the time and my laptop is also on wifi the same connection and it never diconnects!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Arsaw:
Maybe you need to change your WiFi sleep policy to "never" in WiFi advance setting
[Atrix 4G Android Development] GTTG_Atomik:
I would start over if you don't know which version you're stand are having all these problems. Reflash 1.2.6... run beforeupdate.bat... connect via wifi and OTA to 1.5.7... run afterupdate.bat... install Tenfar. CWM.... run CWM and install GB 1.2.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] dcarpenter85:
The stock gingerbread messaging app doesn't communicate with Facebook contacts stored on your phone so you have two options:

1. Use Go SMS Pro or Handcent SMS

2. Extract the stock messaging app from bloatware.zip and install it. (Process for this is on the forums, just browse around for it.)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] be3droid:
Well i took the bullet and wanted to root and have GingerBlur so bad, That I did it this morning in 35mins with no problems at all. Besides a heart racing praying that i dont brick my brand new phone. But was all so simple and clean. Restoring apps now and contacts! WOOT :)

Calendar Fix?????

reading through the forum i found this

BTW, installing the "home" .apk from the bloatware.zip will allow the motorola calendar widget to work.

Is this true... If so will the next release 1.3 have the calendar working.....

If I have Home backed up with Titanium can I just restore home and the calendar will work Or should I reinstall bloatware for just the home file....
[Atrix 4G Android Development] RubAnADUB:
On the motorola website they showcase that motoblur. I would like to just have the widgets anyway we can do that?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] phatboypat:
Install the bloatware.zip from the OP to get all the blur stuff back or use the instructions from a couple pages back to cut out what you don't want.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] joe ferreira:
Thanks for this!

Could this be scripted in your CWM zip?

I know that I did not use titanium backup to restore anything but still had this issue. this did fix it my issue none the less.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Greenarcher707:
Damn, might be coz of the theme i installed.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] -Roze-:
That's very understandable :( Great work so far Ken! I hope that Bell will release their atrix sbf SOON.

I have a questions for the regular Atrix Bell users that have had other Android phones on Bell. How quickly does Bell release the SBF out? When did AT&T realse their SBF or was that a leaked?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Suk0tt0:
Hey guys, last night I noticed that on my contacts I can't right on there walls or poke all I get is a message option. Will this be fixed with the next update? Also motoblur has the option of editing its Widgets size by holding down on the widget, I notice gingerblur doesn't have that, even with the bloatware installed. Will this also be fixed or added on?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] True2TheGame:
I'm able to adjust the size of my widgets just fine with Gingerblur.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Try using Gingerblur with Launcher Pro. You can resize widgets, overlap widgets, etc.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bearsfan172:
Ok so, I don't know if this will help anyone, and I keep hearing that this process is in the thread somewhere, but I can't find it, and this took me a little while to figure out, so I figured I might as well type up a quick guide for it. So, "how to" install specific apps from the system file of the gingerblur-bloatware package.

If you only want one of the system apps from the file, here is how you install it onto the phone via ADB:

adb push <file path for file on computer> /mnt/sdcard/
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system
cp /mnt/sdcard/<name of file> /system/app
exit
exit

And then it should be in your app drawer next time you look.

Again, I don't know if this will help anyone, but it took me a while to figure out since I'm not the best at this type of thing, so maybe it'll help someone else, and it seems like a lot of people are asking questions about this.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
It's really very simple to re-install specific parts of the bloatware. All you have to do is download the Restore Bloatware .zip file form the same website that you downloaded gingerblur from. Then open the zip (no need to unzip, just open it) and navigate to system/app/. Once in this folder, delete all the apk files that you do not want to install, leaving only those that you do want to re-install. Then install the Restore Bloatware .zip the same way you installed gingerblur, with CWM. (myself and others posted this each day, for the past couple of days).

This works to though :p
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
Yep. Very easy guys!

Good news -- I finally got my other USB cord in the mail. Now I can speed through creating my next little Atrix adventure without having to crawl under my desk for AC power to boot into CWM. ;)

I just did a fresh install of Gingerblur on my phone and I had a few issues that are causing me to have to go through the SBF restore because it was pretty much unusable. My home button was working and I wasn't able to get super user on any apps and side loading was not available for me to reinstall the CWM....

I am not going to be to go through the whole process of restoring to 4.1.26, updating to 4.157, re rooting and installing tonight... So I think I will stay on a rooted 4.1.57 untill the next release still seems a little to beta for my liking...

And I am used to running CM6 and CM7 nightlies on other phones

The ROM looked great just didnt act right for me.

Waiting for the next release.....
