Long story short, this is a Gingerbread ROM with stock appearance, but with all the candies we are used to from cooked AT&T versions.

Feedbacks are welcome.

DISCLAIMER: This ROM comes with NO warranty. If you brick your phone, don't blame me, I'm only experimenting with my phone and sharing the results with you, mates!

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

- BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP your actual rom and your data before installing anything!!!!!!
- Your bootloader must be UNLOCKED
- I assume you have CWM recovery installed on your phone. If not, read one of the excellent tutorials on this site and install it. (Remember to choose one of the latest CWM because this is a Rom with EXT4 filesystem)
- Copy the file you have downloaded "as is" (don't try to extract the files contained in the .zip archive!) in the root directory of your SD Card.
- Boot in CWM, select "Install zip from SD Card", then choose the .zip archive you have previously copied and wait until the process ends.
- Reboot your device and enjoy your new rom.

P.S. This rom does not wipe your phone (see changelog for exceptions), but depending on the Rom you actually have on your device, you'll need to convert your /data and /cache partitions to the EXT4 filesystem. If you are on an EXT3 based rom, you have to convert your filesystem (/data and /cache partitions) to EXT4 before installing this rom. Anyway, my personal advice is to backup all your data before installing a new Rom!!!

KNOWN ISSUES:

- Sometimes when you reboot your phone at 1.3Ghz (over)clock speed your launcher widgets seem to vanish. My personal advice is to keep your overclock at 1.1Ghz max. No issues at that speed and it's enough for everything (solved in 1.1).
- There aren't status bar icons for 4G networks (you'll see 3G+ instead). The reason is that we have no 4G here in Italy ATM and the 4G symbol is already used in Android for WIMAX....
- With TW4Launcher (1.1) some motorola widgets do not work (you pay the price for having a lag-free launcher).

Good luck!

1.0 - full rom with Faux123's kernel and EXT4 partitions http://depositfiles.com/files/lgxyvge0p
wow very good topogigio but you need to edit the link to download the rom.the way you wrote it let you think you are going to download faux kernel when instead it's your full rom.anyway big thanks from italy!
just a question!is the webtop included or not?
you could implement the webtop hack in next rev...there are just 2 apk to change and maybe last fugutweaks ... other 2 files to change in system/bin

HI TOPOGIGI,

It's nice to see a new rom...but unfortunately nothing new and with an old firmware, compared to other roms like Nottachtrix 4G, then I skip it

But i'll keep an eye on this thread just in case something new will come.

Grazie.

triplex76 · Mar 13, 2012

that's the last(in term of time!

I really hope) rom release for italy...yes still 2.3.4 here

There is no rom I found here based on international (or better european) original Motorola builds. So, that's something new, indeed.

But the reason that pushed me to release this rom was another: many people here in Italy are complaining about battery life in custom roms based on AT&T builds. The same people are reporting excellent battery life with the stock european rom. So I disassembled all the relevant framework files and found that there are many differences in services.jar between AT&T and european builds. Deep sleep mode and perhaps fast dormancy are implemented in a different way, perhaps to better suit with NA or European networks.

Battery life is excellent with this rom in my experience, but your mileage may vary depending on your mobile operator, I guess....

1) Webtop is not included, perhaps I will incude it in my next release, but I try to keep the download as slim as I can. There are other Webtop CWM-flashable partitions floating around in this forum...

2) No need to implement webtop hacks here. Nebtop.apk works fine here and it does not require system modifications.

3) About Fugutweaks: I personally do not need them as my phone is butter smooth. Perhaps I will test them in a near future. If this is somethingh worthy to have, I'll merge it.

I edited the download link as you suggested. I was used to post the links that way from my previous rom template ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1254359 ) but now it's much more clear. TY for your suggestion.

Hi,
I'm not saying that your rom is not bad..just told that it's outdated compared to some existing ones.
The AT&T based roms don't have any problem with signal or battery (for me at least).
At the time I'm writing, the battery is at: 1d 13h 42mn and still have 5% left with a heavy usage: 3G, WiFi, sync, weather...etc turned on all the time and OC @1200 MHz

So do you still think that there's any difference?

AkaGrey · Mar 13, 2012

Thank you, I will try it when my atrix will come back :\

Sandroon · Mar 13, 2012

Ohhhh, finalmente!!!
Sorry......Well Done!! thanks.
The battery consumption was the biggest problem with at&T based roms...

If you are talking about the GB release number (2.3.4 vs. 2.3.5 vs. 2.3.6), you should take a look to GB changelogs. You will realize that nearly all the changes are referring to the Nexus phone. Nothing really interesting for us. Newer is not always better.
AT&T and Euro builds are different branches, so nothing really comparable.

I'm not entitled to have a personal opinion on this, cause I never tested an AT&T build based rom. I'm only reporting what many people are talking about in italian fora. Perhaps your mobile operator copes very well with your rom/baseband, but this is your personal experience, and could not be verified/experienced by others.

And, I do not THINK that there are differences, I simply KNOW that there are differences in the code because I disassembled and compared different builds. Did you do the same?

Hey Topogigi, now i see why you left O2X Forum! We change to Atrix xD

Hi there,

I did not leave from there. I am just testing a new rom for the O2X too (v20q based) and I'll post it there soon. A promise is a promise, and I promised to release a new rom for the O2X as soon as LG would have some kernel issues solved. The time has come, and I'll be ready to post there in a few days.....

But my wife made me a gift for my birthday one week ago, and the Atrix is so insanely good compared to the O2X....

shadowed87 · Mar 13, 2012

AAAAAAAH seh ! grazie!

I'll keep an eye on this for when i'll need a gb based rom...thanks a lot and keep on the work looks promising...and say grazie to your wife for me as well

Yeah i've changed my o2x to my atrix and the only thing i miss is the awesome screen, but isn't a big deal!

coolloser · Mar 14, 2012

Topogigi! I thought I recognized your name

My roomie has the o2x and you helped make it not a sluggish piece of crap. Glad to see you over here too. w00t

selbaer · Mar 14, 2012

Thank you vey much for this one.
To be honest i havent tested it but i thought about making a international mod myself (regardless of the fact i'm not sure i would be able to to

) cause i agree with you for the reason of differnt code base.
Recently i switched back to stock cause of various problems a had with the At&t ones.
So, i will try this one and once again thank you for making this rom. Oh, and please don't waste to much time in disscussions about it's not being the newest (At least in terms of battery life, 2.2 was unbeatable) and the reason why you did it.

EDIT:
One question. Is TUN by faux kernel or module?

dom_b · Mar 14, 2012

Looks good to me

might give this a go and I like the fact its stock european and not a us based rom!
