Thanks for the PM. I'm determined to fix this! There must be a way. Will post back if/when I fix it. Wife will be out of town so I can nerd it up hardcore after workYeah, I wish I could be of more helpIf you do find out a way to fix it, be sure to let me know or post here, I'll add it up to the FAQ just in case anyone else makes the same mistake. Hope you get it sorted out!
Currently, it's /possible/ to have a ROM like Miui run, but it would be in appearance only, if all the components are even compatible. My GladiAtrix rom already uses the 3D Gallery app from Miui in it, so certain components are compatible outside the ROM itself. A full Miui wouldn't be possible until we get an unlocked bootloader.
If you freeze the FOTA app using Titanium Backup or another freeze app (There's a few in the market, I forget their names.), it should prevent the update from downloading automatically. Even if it does, the update will NOT install unless you accept the installation prompt.Hello,
I just had a quick question. I've done some google searches, as well as done a little poking around on these forums, but can't seem to find this question addressed.
I'm still running 1.26, and wouldn't mind bumping up to 1.57 but the CWM isn't in the most stable of states at the moment, and it appears that all of the MODs are all incorporating this tool.
Is there a way to turn off this auto-update feature for the Atrix 4G?
I'd just like the dang phone to stop prompting me to update. Because sometimes I accidently hit the update button, which takes me to an android, with an exclamated triangle, and it hangs there for hour(s), until it finally asks me to revert the update changes [VERY ANNOYING].
Thanks for the time, and to all DEV's, thank you for EVERYTHING you do!!! It makes owning a smartphone that much more fun to have!
Thanks, and what about the gingerbread dalvik port? is it possible?
Simply put, highly unlikely. The Atrix already runs a heavily modified OS, and it just isn't worth it at this point. Anything ported to Atrix at this point would probably run much worse than the stock 2.2.1.
Says who? There's plenty you can do with it. My GladiAtrix rom is constantly being updated with new features. Show me another phone that hooks up through an HDMI cable to become a full linux box, eh?
With root access you can customize it pretty heavily. The point where we run into issues is custom kernels which on this device, in my opinion, aren't really needed. Most custom kernels have the goal of speed in mind, and the Atrix is already crazy fast. The only limitations we're seeing is just from lack of developer involvement. Everyone is avoiding the Atrix because of some useless stigma surrounding it. Talk to anyone here who has one, we all love it to death. What REAL benefit or features would you get from running Miui or CWM or even just Gingerbread that you can't already do? It's all relative to what you're looking for. If you're a heavy power user who wants to modify the kernel yourself, yeah, maybe the Atrix isn't for you right now. But other than that? Sky's the limit.
The answer to all 3 is unfortunately: "I'm not sure yet."
Phones I returned because they suck:
It's not really /hard/ it's just that it requires a bit of testing and troubleshooting to get things to work, and if we end up with a bricked phone, there's no way to recover it. If we can get a proper CWM with ADB support that doesn't need to be invoked from the phone booted, then we can make our own recovery points and start modding on Bell phones.
It should be noted that you CAN NOT flash an AT&T SBF to a Bell phone. It won't work.
Please keep that kind of crap out of my thread
follow up question to the above...
Rooting your phone should be ok, and I can add an option to unroot if people really need it. It's as simple as deleting superuser.apk and /system/bin/su.
woohoo!
This should be in the gladroot thread, but rooting doesn't change how your phone looks. Not sure what you were expecting?
