[ROM] CHERRYπ & πCRUST v0.8 [AT&T] [INTL] [GB] [D3 Camera w/ 1080p]

[navalynt]

Current Version: v0.8

The Usual Disclaimer​

This is posted in a DEVELOPER forum, and therefore is being released to help further the development of Android OS for the Motorola Atrix. If you would like to try my ROMs you do so at your own risk!

​

About the ROMs
​

CHERRYπ ROM (Cherry Pi) is a delicious new ROM I cooked up from the AT&T 4.5.91 SBF. It has a nice overall red theme for which screenshots are attached. It is very similar to CherryBlur v1.4d in my other ROM thread.
​

πCRUST (Pi Crust) is just CHERRYπ without the theme. I specifically developed this ROM for others to use as a base for new ROMs.

πCRUST may be reused and built upon by ANYONE, no need to ask permission first!
​

Instead of having the community spinning their wheels to continuously recreate modifications I wanted to create a single base from which others can jump into ROM development and work towards NEW modifications and hacks.

FEATURES LIST AND CHANGE LOG
ARE IN POST #2
​

*Some assembly required to make Launcher Pro look like the screenshots! Icons and dock graphics used can be found HERE!
​

REQUIREMENTS
​

These requirements MUST be taken care of before you flash one of my ROMs:


UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER - Use the latest version for your country and the latest SBF you flashed!

4.5.91 RADIO UPDATE - Being that the new default faux123 kernel is build from 4.5.91 source it would be wise to have the corresponding radio!

Romracer's Atrix Recovery - Do NOT use CWM installed from ROM Manager!

MOTOROLA ATRIX - This HAS NOT been tested by me on anything but an AT&T Motorola Atrix. It is HIGHLY recommend that you make a backup in CWM before installing this ROM, especially for international users!

Do NOT proceed through the instructions until you have the requirements met!!

You should hopefully have noticed that each requirement is linked to the thread where you can find instructions and support.

​

πCRUST ROM - Latest version v0.8 - FULL WIPE ROM

The big difference between v0.7 and v.08 is the inclusion of faux123's v0.2.0 kernel! This kernel has a patch created by eval- and integrated by faux123 making it work universally with all of the Atrix models, including international d00 and 1100 models!
​

KERNEL DOWNLOADS

Stock Kernel for AT&T Phones w/ default root and remount support
* A fall-back for AT&T handsets if the faux123 kernel uses too much battery life!




ADD-ON DOWNLOADS

Original AT&T APN List - Flash immediately after ROM & Kernel!

Larger APN List from v0.3 - Flash immediately after ROM & Kernel!

WAKE-ON-VOLUME - Generic for any 4.5.91 based ROM

WebtopMod v1 - Reported to work well with this ROM

Original Atrix Camera App - If you have problems with D3 Camera now included with the ROMs, try this! Reverts back to stock camera app.

D3 Camera App - Already included in ROMs and updates, but here if you want to switch back and forth with the original app.



THEME DOWNLOADS
Theme installers wipe the Cache and Dalvik-Cache only!
They can be used on other 4.5.91 ROMs or used to go between CHERRYπ and πCRUST interfaces although this has not been tested, so use at your own risk!

CHERRYπ THEME - Latest version v0.2 (no changes in theme from v0.2 - v0.8 in ROM)

πCRUST THEME - Latest version v0.2 (no changes in theme from v0.2 - v0.7 in ROM)



Known issues with v0.8
(and probably with 4.5.91 in general)

• The fingerprint scanner does not like to initialize the first time. If you try to add your fingerprint to the lock and it does not register your finger swipes then cancel the setup and try again. The second time it should work fine!
  • One user reported that pressing the power button to lock the screen while in the fingerprint scanner setup made the fingerprint scanner initialize properly without having to cancel and restart the setup.

• Users report that once in a while when unlocking the screen the touchscreen is unresponsive
  • This is fixed by pressing the power button to lock the screen then unlocking again

FAQ (Frequenty Asked Questions)

Q. Is this based on kennethpenn's ROM?

A. NO, it is not based on kenneth's ROM. While we both used a lot of the same sources for our modifications, and our features are similar, I made all of the modifications myself wherever possible and gave credit (see above) to those whose work I have used.
​

Q. What is the difference between CHERRYπ and CherryBlur ROMs?

A. CherryBlur is currently based on the Orange FR 2.3.4 build (4.5.2A) so it is more internationally friendly. CHERRYπ is based on the AT&T 2.3.4 build (4.5.91) so it's more friendly towards US specific handsets.​

Q. Will this work on an international model Atrix?

A. I have not tested this, and the included kernel is for AT&T only so flashing it as it is will cause a "soft brick" on an international model. It might work ok to flash one of faux123's kernels for international models immediately after flashing one of my ROMs (before rebooting).
​

Q. Will other 4.5.91 themes work over these ROMs?

A. In theory, yes, I have not tried any of them though! The only "major" framework changes I made were for the 1% battery mod, so if you flash another theme that already has it I don't see why it wouldn't work. Make a backup, try it out, and PM me the results! Tested working themes WILL be linked from the first post so users have more choices!
​

Q. I flashed and I'm stuck in a bootloop (or I can't get past the dual-core screen)

A. You either flashed to an international model (which is unsupported right now) or you flashed a corrupted download. IF you have an actual AT&T handset then re-download the ROM and flash it again.
​

Q. I flashed an update and now I'm getting FC (force close) errors on "main" or "phone", help!

A. Flash the full-wipe ROM instead of the updater! Make sure you are using the stock kernel as well! The updater, in many cases, causes issues but if I don't make it available my inbox will be flooded with requests for it.
​

Q. Why does your ROM install script wipe data (factory reset)?

Whenever you switch between ROMs (or upgrade ROMs) it's best to perform a wipe. Otherwise you will almost certainly find little things not working and have to wipe later anyways.
​

Q. I thought you said in the CherryBlur thread that CHERRYπ would be de-blurred or have bloatware removed?

A. Eventually it will be forked (pun intended) to have "slices" which are various levels of de-blur and bloat removal
​

Q. Who are the brave souls that are helping you test?

A. amirseg, sporrer, rredlin, zoso28, aaronf6983, acer73, and snake32493 all responded to my call for tested in the CherryBlur thread. They are helping me run each ROM through it's paces looking for bugs prior to release. THANK YOU TESTERS!

Thanks..

downloading now!!

 

[sauronith]

So I can just use the Mobile Hotspot in Wireless Networks and Connections for free?

 

[xepter]

lets get this testings

 

[navalynt]

So I can just use the Mobile Hotspot in Wireless Networks and Connections for free?

It's enabled ... but I have heard stories of people using the Hotspot feature then AT&T, without their permission, billing them for a tethering package. I can't verify this because I don't use AT&T and my carrier doesn't restrict tethering/hotspot.

 

[Charsher47]

Thanks for the new rom! Is launcher pro used in this like cheryblur?

 

[tykazowsky]

Sexy.

Which kernel?

EDIT: I guess I can see in your screenshot sorry

Yes, but that is easily removable using TitaniumBackup which is also pre-installed. I updated the features list to make the "Applications Added" at the top for more viability.

I cant be the only one that saw "FBI Surveillance Van #124" in the Wi-fi list screenshot

 

[Tikerz]

Crust is a great idea. For people like me who like it stock, finally there's an optimized ROM for us. Thank you!!!

I cant be the only one that saw "FBI Surveillance Van #124" in the Wi-fi list screenshot

I did that for fun to try an make my neighbors paranoid

 

[jjwatmyself]

Impressive! Congrats.

Edit: I see the build number says CHRRYp v0. 2 How about CHERRY(3.142) v0.2?

Btw What is the difference between themes CHERRY(3.142) and (3.142)CRUST?

(3.142)CRUST is the stock MotoBlur theme. Nothing special, just a crust I didn't think it worth the time to post screenshots of the stock theme, but I can if requested. The OP could always use more filling!

CHERRY(3.142) is the real fruit of my labors. I'd pit it against other ROMs any day. It's really blossomed in the past week or so.

Am I laying it on too thick?

Edit: Where the π symbol will show correctly I'll use that, otherwise I'll use (3.14159) for more accuracy

I like your style! All this talk from me for so long and I'm finally going to move up from Froyo!

I am very interested in the debuted ROM developments. At v0. 2 do you recommend for or against skipping the Moto account config during installation?

I just flashed crust and wifi won't turn on. Says error.

Hi Navalynt,

Will you made a version as light as possible ?
I think to remove all Blur and useless stuff in /system/app like :
Blur_email.apk
Blur_facebook.apk
Blur_flickr.apk
FriendFeed.apk
HelpCenter.apk...

Or where can I found a list with all removable (by removable I say possible to rename with Root Explorer XXX.apk.bak) stuff to make the system as light and fast as possible ?
Thank you !

 

[navalynt]

I will double check (3.14159)CRUST in the morning. In the interim, look on my CherryBlur thread for the AT&T kernel and reapply it. Or try one of Faux123 kernels.

I hope I didnt miss something stupid obvious before I uploaded.

OR, download CHERRY(3.14159) then apply the other theme. Once I verify the problem I will reupload the file and leave a note next to it in the OP that its fixed.
