kernel complete

Just as I thought, as soon as I bought a Nexus 4 the Atrix 4g kernel progress would suddenly become (virtually) complete.

Ah well, I love the Nexus 4 and now I have 2 Atrix 4Gs that I can play with. If someone from the developement team is interested, I'll gladly donate one of my Atrix 4Gs for all your hard work.

Good job developers and testers :good:

Ok, it's been spoken for. Thank you for pointing me to the thread.
Please click thanks on the post from dupont23 above. His generosity is directly enabling this Kernel project to move forward. Many thanks to jhonnyx for assiting dupont23 with partnering his Atrix with a new and very deserving owner. :highfive:

with a complete working 3.1 kernel, is there any chance on getting official cyanogenmod10 releases/support?

Well, certainly the Atrix 4G has CM7 official support (IIRC, atrix-dev-team and/or faux where the maintainers), in fact there still are Olympus CM7 nigthlies. As you note, the main reason there is no official CM9+ releases is the lack of a compatible kernel source, but that hopefully is soon to change, so there may be official CM support again but I would guess is up to the development team to contribute their work to the CM project.

Where you get that questions? hahahaha

Well, like Marcovrv saids, it will be up to the dev team and the CM team itselft. The main reason of why Atrix haven't official CM9+ it's the kernel. But, if you look at it, some of anothers Tegra 2 powered devices have in did, CM support.

So, we still have to wait, because that's not sure at all. :).

It would be great if the dev team would share with us what is happening behind the scene...a video with how the phone is running with the new kernel would be trully awesome...
just a thought...
