I just switched to this ROM and so far its cool and Fast. But I don't see Google Talk app? I know its not in Market and comes with Gapp..
Superlite Gapps doesn't seem to have this.
Can i install this http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-newtalk-signed.zip ? or any specific version i need to look far?
Actually the version you listed is for Gingerbread ROMs.

Try this version of GApps instead: http://goo.im/devs/epinter/gapps/gapps-jb-20121019-olympus-signed.zip

It is for CM10 4.1.2.

See epinter's CM10 site: http://www.linuxmobile.org/

So, any recommended kernels that can solve the problem since Video illusion isn't quite elegant.

Where have you been?

Haha, no offense. Check the kernel port project: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2016837

It hasn't been released yet but you can compile it and try it using one of my guides here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2253529 or here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2251988

First link is much simpler.

It won't work with this ROM though. It requires MROM CM9 or CM10 with leaked libs.

A public release is coming soon though.

And also, when I want to change the theme of the ROM in the setting, the setting force closes.

Have you tried flashing SuperLite-V8-Addons? Seventeen apps & features rolled up into a single menu-driven installer --- including the theme engine. It's described in my OP.

Here's the link for convenience: http://www.mediafire.com/?21dn8v8p60di422

Once you flash the theme engine, you should be able to install different themes --- though I have not tried this yet ;)

And did you plan for some other workaround(s) for the choppy video recording since the app that you are referring to isn't that intuitive. It's the only thing that prevents this ROM to be perfect and keep me staying with the MROM 2.3.7 that I'm currently using.

There is no way to fix the choppiness unless you use a compatible kernel. So either wait for the kernel port project, or stick to GB if you absolutely need video.

Too bad, maybe Gingerbread is just made for the Atrix.

He-he, that’s why I dual boot! :D

Have you read my SuperLite OP? Here are some quotes for convenience...

When I embarked on this project, I quickly discovered that porting ROMs across manufacturers is no easy matter. Yet I did my very best to preserve the original SuperLite build while adding a few helpful apps and features described above. Also…

  • Slightly modified /system/framework/framework-res.apk to keep Settings>Storage from checking for unidentified /mnt/usbdisk -- and from subsequent crash
  • Imported CM10 Usb.apk for stable charging and adb over USB
  • Imported CM10 Gallery2.apk to make the camera work. Actually the SuperLite camera took good pictures though the viewing display was blank
  • Retained most SuperLite-specific apps, binaries, permissions and libs for future growth
Also, have you considered building or porting your own ROM? It is very rewarding --- and also helps to appreciate all of the devs, testers and other contributors all over the world who work very hard to bring us some very good ROMs --- for free --- quietly, well into the night, many times with no outside help, and sometimes with not-so-constructive criticism. (I speak on behalf of others; not myself.)

Why are we doing this? Multiple reasons. One good example is last fall when Motorola failed on its promise to deliver ICS for Atrix 4G.

http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2012/10/motorola-reneges-on-ice-cream-sandwich-software-update/

So we were left pretty much to ourselves to extrapolate the solution... Welcome to XDA ;)

Calender Sync

Hello, I'm unable to sync my calender agenda from Google, there was no calender app in the gapps package so i downloaded the Google Calender from the play store but the problem is when ever I select "Agenda" the app force closes without any error and no matter how many times i try to start the app it force closes every time. There's also no option in Accounts settings in google to Sync the calender. The Contacts sync's perfectly but it still says "Sync Error". Please Help me if there is a fix, I really like this rom but Calender is very very important to me, Please HELP!
Thanks

Hi. I'm glad you like SuperLite :)

If you flash SuperLite-V8-Addons (described in my OP): http://www.mediafire.com/?21dn8v8p60di422 , one of the seventeen menu options is "Calendar Sync". Maybe try that --- though you would probably need to wipe data on any existing Calendar and related apps.

If that doesn't work, try flashing epinter gapps v5. Here's the direct link: http://goo.im/devs/epinter/gapps/gapps-jb-20121019-olympus-signed.zip

See also http://www.linuxmobile.org/

Again, you may need to wipe some app-specific data.

Hope this helps.

Thank you very much for the advice, I will definitely try it , I really hope it works. If i may ask another help, the gallery is also very buggy when I rotate the image it starts flickering rapidly and will continue to do so till I restart the app... Am I doing something wrong here ? Can i fix it?
Thanks in advance, Gr8 ROM :)

Solving Gallery Jitter

Thank you very much for the advice, I will definitely try it , I really hope it works. If i may ask another help, the gallery is also very buggy when I rotate the image it starts flickering rapidly and will continue to do so till I restart the app... Am I doing something wrong here ? Can i fix it?

In my case, rotation in any direction is very smooth… But after rotating the first picture, I get some jitter when scrolling through images. Closing and re-launching Gallery solves the problem until I rotate an image.

But I tried the following solution and it worked:

Download Emerson Pinter’s CM10.1 for Atrix: cm-10.1-20130211-UNOFFICIAL-epinter-olympus.zip from: http://www.linuxmobile.org/atrix/cm10-1 and save zip to phone storage.

  1. Using a good file explorer (recommend Root Explorer), open CM10.1 zip and extract /system/app/Gallery2.apk to explorer's temp directory.
  2. Navigate to /system/app and remount as read-write by tapping the “Mount R/W” button at top right.
  3. Under /system/app, navigate to Gallery2.apk, long-press and rename to Gallery2.apk.bak. This saves the original Gallery2 for later use if necessary.
  4. Move the CM10.1 version of Gallery2.apk from the temp directory in step 1 to /system/app
  5. Remount /system/app as read-only by tapping “Mount R/O” button at upper right.
  6. Launch Gallery and test
Caution: If you wipe Gallery data, you lose all data associated with Gallery --- and I think this includes pictures.

New! Fast Superuser (08 May 2013)

Here is Fast Superuser based on Chainfire’s latest (free) version of SuperSU (v1.25, March 2013):

Link (1MB): http://www.mediafire.com/?dg5hh68l5rg5559

Simply CWM-flash, reboot and enjoy an even faster SuperLite for your Atrix 4g!

Root apps like the popular ones shown below launch much faster than with SuperLite’s stock Superuser --- and they may be less prone to force close. Better security too, I think.

  • ROM Manager
  • Titanium Backup
  • Root Explorer
  • Terminal Emulator
  • SManager (Script Manager)
  • SetCPU
  • ADB (Android Debug Bridge)



It is important to note here that the SuperSU app found on Google Play is actually a superuser management app, in contrast to the “su” binary which is the engine. Thus the latter is necessary to achieve superuser on a rooted device. My flashable zip includes both SuperSU and the su binary.

Also, my flashable zip is unique in that the script command code invokes regular expressions (pattern recognition) to find and remove any existing versions of Superuser and related files from the /system, /cache, /data and /preinstall partitions prior to flashing the new, more efficient Superuser.apk and su binaries:

Code:
#!/system/bin/sh

# Find and remove all instances of superuser in ROM
# sendust7 @ xda-developers

MOUNT_DEVICE=$1
MOUNT_POINT=$2

if [ -d "${MOUNT_POINT}" ]
then
  echo "Directory: ${MOUNT_POINT} exists (OK)" 
else 
  mkdir ${MOUNT_POINT}
fi

mount -t ext4 ${MOUNT_DEVICE} ${MOUNT_POINT}

/sbin/busybox find ${MOUNT_POINT} -name su -exec rm {} \;
/sbin/busybox find ${MOUNT_POINT} -name *[Ss][Uu]per[Ss][Uu]* -exec rm -r {} \;
/sbin/busybox find ${MOUNT_POINT} -name *[Ss][Uu]per[Uu][Ss]* -exec rm -r {} \;

umount ${MOUNT_POINT}
Fast Superuser is a good candidate for my next version of SuperLite.

And Chainfire offers a “no-nag” version of SuperSU which disables the “please upgrade” prompt. He simply requests that ROM developers include a minor advertisement in the ROM description, e.g. "Powered by SuperSU" or "Please support SuperSU" :)

Enjoy :D

Kudos to Chainfire. http://www.chainfire.eu/

This should work with any ROM, correct?
