Looks like Atrix has CyanogenMod 7 Beta

[twolostminds]

Atrix CyanogenMod Beta

Looks like they've got just about everything working, not sure about stability though. Figured since the Atrix seems to be leading the way for our Photon modifications this might be a good sign that the Photon Dev's can get it working too.

What Works:
Calls and SMS (2G/3G/H+)
Display
Touchscreen
Proximity Sensor
WiFi
Audio
USB
Bluetooth
GPS
Camera & Camcorder (many thanks defer!)
Dock support
Torch
Accelerometer, compass and other sensors.
Ability to swap sdcard and emmc mountpoints (New CM7 feature)
WiFi Hotspot / USB Tethering
5-touch multitouch
What Doesn’t Work:
Fingerprint sensor - Work in progress (not native to CM)
Webtop - Work in progress (not native to CM)

Very true....

I was only pointing out that now that they have is in a functional state that what they learned to get this far may be helpful to the Photon dev's.

How long has the photon been out for? For the shift it was around 2 months before root. Took a while to get decent development for it.

about 2 months give or take. i was looking at the epic touch 4g and damn they just released a few weeks ago and a bunch of roms already out for it =.=

Epic Touch 4g has an advantage over the Photon when it comes to development. Unlocked from the git go and a Cyanogen dev has had his hands on one for a while. Though I love the 4.52" display on the ET4G I think the Photon is far better and have faith that someone will crack the bootloader while maintaining 4G. Like all good things it just may take some time.

^this, plus this is moto's first phone on sprint for android (ok lets be honest real android phone.. not some i1 crap

the et4g roms are all the same, stock deodex touchwiz.. dont believe me look at the original epic forums. there hasnt bee a shred of creativity there since SRF 1.2.

regardless of how far/fast the atrix guys get things working in our current state we cant even get their cm7 stuff to boot and apparently moto disabled uart via 3.5mm (according to the atrix guys) so we have no idea what is or isnt working when things boot

There has been "some" creativity in the Epic4G forums but nothing near what it was before all the dev/mod pissing contests. SRF 1.2 was the last significant ROM with that phone, this is one of the reasons my son now has my Epic and I am here with a Photon.

It's probably been done and I've probably missed a post about it somewhere but I'll ask anyway.... Has anyone taken the plunge and tried flashing the current Atrix CM7 to the Photon?

 

[shabbypenguin]

yea took some editing to the updater script to even get it to flash, doesnt make it to bootani which means its a kernel panic/failure

Please help me

Ok so I have an unlocked bootloader and so I wanted to install a new rom. The first thing I installed was [Gobstopper] Bell GB 2.3.4 Updated 9-08-2011 - xda-developers and everything went fine except everything was backwards. The home key was the back key etc. So I tired to install the beta of Cyanogen and now I am stuck at the dual core screen. I am now getting the message from cwm that my sd card can not be mounted i was going to go back the rom above for the time being but i can't even do that. Any help much appreciated.
