Update 05/10/2011: So, at this point I've just fallen too far behind the curve, and it doesn't look like I will be updating GladiAtrix any further. I'll still support v4.2.3 for 1.57 (which is pretty stable, and almost all the issues I've seen users have up to this point are the installation). I may at some point throw something together for myself to use and release it (as I don't care for the themes/mods of GingerBlur/GreyBlur), but at this point I'm doing all the mods manually and have no current plans to make a flashable zip out of it.
News and Important Info - READ FIRST
Looks horribly out of place I know
04/14/2011 @ 10:00am: Download links are fixed. Sorry all! As I stated in my last post, I will be unavailable for the next few hours. I DO see your questions and I WILL answer them. Please be patient, this isn't my full-time job and I have other things that need my attention today. Thanks!
04/13/2011 @ 11:17pm - NOTICE on theme: The THEMED version does not have reboot/recovery. I've been too busy working out the other kinks to add it in. The NOTHEME version is just like v3 and older, with the reboot/recovery options intact, as well as all the other changes up to this point. That is the only difference between the two.
All the bugs with the fingerprint scanner, wifi defaulting to on, custom keyboards not working, etc. etc. should all be resolved. Please PM me or reply to the thread if you have any issues.
Version 4.2.3 is going to be considered base from here on forward. It will create a backup of all the files it changes and copy them to the root of the internal SD card. PLEASE copy this backup to some place safe. Going forward, all updates will be released on top of 4.2.3, and will create sequential backups of any new files changed, if there's a need to back them up. It does not have any feature updates since 4.2.1, just many bug fixes.
04/13/2011 @ 11:00am(ish) - NOTICE on Reboot/Recovery power menu options: These are currently removed. I added a theme, and I haven't had time to add reboot/recovery options to it yet. If someone who knows what they're doing would like to add them and send me the updated files, it would certainly expidite the process as I'm not even sure how I got them working in the first place on v1-3. Screenshots will be in the second post as soon as I get a moment to upload some.

History and Summary
CWM finally released! Sorry for taking so long with it, I'm very picky about my work and wanted to test EVERYTHING and make sure it was all working as it was supposed to. I hope the extra effort pays off and nobody has any issues with this
I've removed the script version as there's no need for it anymore. CWM is safer and does everything we need it to do with the latest version.
This is only for AT&T phones running firmware version 1.57. If you have 1.52 or 1.26 please go here first: [SCRIPT] GladRoot (Bell 0.37.4, AT&T 1.26/1.52/1.57 Supported) If you are a Bell user, DO NOT INSTALL.
If you need the drivers, they are available here: 32-bit Drivers and 64-bit Drivers
If you run into any issues, please PM me or post your /data/local/tmp/ga2.log here. This will help me diagnose what went wrong, in the very unlikely event something goes wrong.
Come chat with us!
