DISCLAIMER

Me, Myself, and I, as well as XDA-Developers.com and anyone else doesn't take any repsonsibilty for damages on your device!
Rooting your device will void your warranty!
Don't play with settings you aren't familiar with, you could burn/ruin/or corrupt your device!!
Ask, if you have any questions!!

Altho The Droid Razr will probably never see a future update past 4.1, That doesn't mean we cant sit back and do nothing. Catalyst3 releases the full potential of the Moto 4.1 and every vain it has to run it. There will be flashable patches and updates very soon so, makesure to subscribe and keep an eye out! Kexec Kernel integration and options to take control will be available soon as well.

Catalyst3 is a multi-device platform firmware built upon the Verizon .16 update (Portable to the Droid Razr, Atrix 2, Droid4, Bionic with apropiate changes). Altho it has been stripped of everything it had upon release, it made for a great base and stable platform as a future Stock-to-Kexec firmware. Catalyst3 is one of the first examples of converting a Stock rom to what we now know as a Kexec Kernel powered rom. The advantages of this? Massive Overclocking abilities for your device, a wide range of options we still of yet can take control over for full battery optimization, The ability to control voltages without the need of modules, a wide vareity of governors and schedulers, a firmware that runs at its best. Altho running Android 4.1, I have many plans for future updates to bring this firmware as up-to-date as possible and possibly to the point I could update the firmware to 4.2 if I wanted to. The rom itself has gone through a tremendous amount of work and transformations and integration with the Bionx Dashboard which is now at version 3.4. Yes, it still needs work but a great deal of users see potential in my idea of a toolkit, so Im constantly improving.

Community Mods are welcomed!

Your system must be up-to-date on the Kernel or another words...If your a CDMA user, you must have the .16 verizon kernel installed or the latest Jellybean update has gone through; If your a GSM user, you would also need the official JB update installed at some point. If all else fails, RSD Lite with latest release.

Recovery: This rom was built and intended for BMM or Bootmenu by Whirleys however with the recent update to Safestrap by Hashcode, it has been confirmed this rom will boot now on both recoveries intended for our device; XT910/XT912 Performance and Features may vary depending on device model and patches applied.

Q:Will Kexec Kernel be available for this rom?
A:As long as the modified kexec kernel retains stable, yes. CID/WIP

Q:Are the Kernel Modules capadible with Bionx?
A:Yes, Nx Performance in the Bionx Dashboard was modfied to identify those modules and take advantage of them for your CPU

Q:What Carrier does this rom support and what Devices?
A:This rom currently supports both GSM and CDMA devices with approperate patches. Currently supported is the Droid Razr. Droid 4, Bionic, and Atrix 2 require some System UI modifications/build.prop edits and possibly kernel patches. You may need to manually add APNs to your device.

Q:How do I update the Bionx Dasboard?
A:Accasionally check on google play I will be adding a notification feature soon!

Q:What is the Bionx Dashboard?
A:A Toolkit I designed to help users take control over the Bionx Catalyst Rom.

Q:Is the Bionx Dashboard required to be installed?
A:In a nutshell, no. If your someone who perfers to have privacy and a obsesser about software and permissions. Feel free to unistall the toolkit but without it, your just an owner of a plain old rom.

Q:Can I unistall the Xperia Audio Framework without affecting the rom?
A:Yes and No. Some packages keep the rom stable and depend on the audio driver. If you wish to remove the Walkman Player, just remove the player and nothing else.

Q:Where is the reboot button in the power menu?
A:I did not modify the Power Menu in this rom because it took up time I dont have and I made a power menu available in the Bionx Dashboard.

Q:Are you able to upgrade the firmware from 4.1.2 to 4.2 or 4.3?
A:By mods yes, officially and by SDK level, no. I can make modifications to the point we can install 4.2 packages or emulate a 4.3 experience but I cannot raise the SDK level without making more work for myself.

Q:Can I make mods or port this rom to another device?
A:Sure

Q:Can I post this thread on another site?
A:With permissions, yes.

Q:Where can I find a changelog of the rom?
A:Click on Bionx Dashboard, Navigate to the Catalyst menu, Click on Changelog

Q:Where can I view the credits of this rom?
A:At bionx.webs

I encourage open development on Android and doing so, the full source of the Bionx Dashboard is available on Github in 2 packages (Old 3.5 and 4.1) If you would like to create your own Bionx Rom for another device or port, Let me know and Il get in on the fun and being open source, you can make your own tweaks to your rom or device!
Please Rate Bionx Dashboard on Google Play after using it for awhile and leave feedback, you have no idea how much I rely on Feedback! Lets make something together, Lets make something unique, Lets make something new.
By All Means, mention a feature you would like to see.
