[Q] cherry pie or alien - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

which is better for [email protected] phones? and which is faster and has the better features?

Try them both and answers find.. you will

every rom has different things to them, like updated market vs old market, launcher included. If you're looking for just speed, the one with less bloat..maybe ninja or red pill. Haven't tried Redpill but I hear it's fast. I'm on cherry pie v3 right now and it's really good. Alien needs a few more thingsironed out but Kenneth's stuff kicks grass. Ninja comes overclocked but you need to freeze the market updater unless you want the new market. I've pretty much tried every one but I will get around to redpill.

Thnx

Depends on what features you want. Totally Worthless T2 is the best kernel for my needs.
Depends what your looking for. I'm running Dow 14 HD and its awesome. OC to 1.4 ( without a problem) , voodoo color and sound. BLN.

Imm Runiinq Dhee samee...I Set Cpu To 1.4 too Andd It works perfect
s0niqu3s, its almost all stock so stable and good battery..
but, it adds voodoo (EXT4) and voodoo sound (get the app in the market) and you will be blown away at how better video/music sound on the Vibrant.
I really do not think any kernel could be better right now. OC'ing is (a) a drain on battery and (b) not worth it in my opinion, my phone is plenty snappy
Well, am using the dragon v5 with no problem, yet with some bugs and checking constantly on the forums, all I see on the post is the same issues on every other kernel posts: battery, lag, wake of death, headphone, mic failure , tests , etc , but if you all read the threads its all the same, great job from all devellopers here, but I guess what makes a rom or kernel useless is how some users flash, and complain on these forums , is there a better rom out there than bionix, for our vibrants?

What about the best kernel for Bionic-v 1.3.1? I really want to enhance the Sound and the video to my vibrant. I dont care for battery waste as I have like 5 extras and 3 of them are 3500mhz.
All I need is a great Customized Kernel that will make my phone much faster and enhance at top.
I installed the Tigers Blood Kernel and love it but is giving me bugs like I cant install or un-installed apps and SD card bugs to connect to PC
Any suggestions will be great
whats better ford, dodge, chevy? different strokes for different folks.test them out and see what you like the best. keep a note of battery life and data speeds. stuff like that. or im wrong and have no clue what i'm spewing out. ladder more true then the former.
Recently, many kernels released for vibrant. Find best suit for yr ROM. Right now i use Dead Horse Kernel ULF OC_UV for Bionix-v 1.3.1. Smooth, fast, no problem, Quad +/- 2200 and battery more than 2d at normal daily.

Try the Overstock kernel if you havent already. OCs to 1.2 and has Voodoo... You could add darkys tweak as well as the fugu tweak too if you want to kick it up another notch.
Vibrant, Bionix-v 1.3.1, Overstock 2.2 Voodoo...

Which Rom gives more performance boost?

Which Rom for atrix gives more performance boost? (ive been lookingin aria, alien or CM) can suggest one of yours too. Im looking it for games..
Just from my own readings I believe that the CM7 pre-beta guys have gotten the highest quadrant scores. there is the slight thing with the camera though. I use alien myself and haven't had any problems but i'm mostly doing gensoid gaming. I haven't tried aura yet but it does look good. not sure if this helps you
Thanks it does help, i seen the screenshot it got 4000 on quadrant i run quadrant on my overweighted atrix (lots and lots of apps) i got around 1500, so i think it will give a boost =) maybe ill stick with the stock rom till CM comes stable.
Do your alien run better than stock? how much better?

using CM7, the stock camera doesn't work too well, but you can get around that by using a few third party apps from the market.
the fingerprint sensor doesn't work (which really sucks, because that was a major selling point of the phone for me) but i'm just dealing with that.
i've been averaging between 3700-4000 quadrant scores, and pretty much loving everything about CM7. i wasn't too big of a fan of all that motoblur stuff, so it's pretty awesome to get rid of it all.
it's definitely ready for a daily driver, for me at least, as long as you're willing to sacrifice the fingerprint scanner, and use crappy workarounds for the camera.
But fixes are on the way right? to get around those issues? i just want to have a smooth browser scrolling =( hope CM gives that.

I like it a lot more than stock. It's fully deodexed so all of the themes that people put together can be flashed over that rom. I'm a huge fan of CM7 on my nook color but I am waiting patiently for the camera and fingerprint scanner to be fixed when they can get to it. I have a company policy for exchange mail that requires a password and it's way easier to swipe and be in than to enter a password everytime.
yeah, but im seeying all this on the perfomance side cyanogen looks awesome so ill keep the stock then jump to cyanogen when its fully compatible, and then the ultimate android Ice cream sandwich come, hopefully with hardware acceleration then it will crush all iphones Muhahaha
I'm using Aura 1.1.3 Debloat #7 and it seems to be very fast. I use SetCPU and have it underclock the processor to 216 MHz when the screen is off. On the other roms, the phone would hiccup for a while before coming to full speed when I turned the screen on. On this Aura rom, I can barely notice a slowdown in the first half second and it goes straight to full power then. I believe it's because this rom is only 150 MB, as opposed to others like CherryBlur, which is 560 MB.
Every ROM has it's points.... I look at the list of whats included: My biggest thing is tethering but I was able to do it on every ROM so it really depends on what you're going to add to it. If you have a ton of apps, something that is debloated/deblurred is probably best but not important. Quadrant scores don't seem like they are entirely trustworthy enough to make one a winner over the other. CM7 isn't gingerbread so I wouldn't include that one right now in the mix. They all are stable though. I like Aura/Darkside and Alien. Ninja is still a favorite of mine as well. I don't use the camera much so D3 or stoc doesn't make a difference to me but you might have a preference. I'm not a Star Wars fan but I tride that one and it was smooth....I liked the Darth Vader breathing when the SD cards mounted LOL. I use ADW for a launcher beause it gives me the choice of several themes and 5 icons on the dock.

[Q] What rom do you use and why?

Well hello everyone. I was wondering what rom you use and why. Personally, I use Alien, because I like the green theme and the stability. What about you?
There are literally a BILLION topics on this already.... Literally... A BILLION!
I use CM7 pb3. Its stable (except camera) as far as I have seen. And you can use some of the qhd themes from what I've been told.
I tried Alien and Aura and many others... None had Hotspot working for me Except CherryBlur and Stock ORFR... Currently running my own Custom ROM based on CherryBlur..
Crust .7 is for me. Do it yourselfer that performs well with fingerprints and most of all webtop & Ubuntu customization. If i didn't care about what webtop brings to the table or scanning my prints I'd go cm7 probably. Tried everything but π crust is for me. An there are billions but i don't feel like I'm feeding ^_^

Recommend a rom!

Hi, I need a stable daily driver for my daughters Eris, can some recommend a ROM. I would prefer sense, but may check out CM7. What is a solid ROM where the important things work (i.e. bluetooth, wife, camera, and video recorder). Thanks for any input!
Gsb 4.0 v6 script, and loopy smoothness. jit ,and compcache at 18 its so good

Xtrasense 2.1 based runs very smooth. (Still on wife's eris).
I upgraded to 2.3.5 based for bluetooth 1 button voice dialing. (It didn't show up till 2.2 roms :-(
Still testing the 2.3.5 roms...

Evervolv has been very smooth, lightweight, and reliable for me.
Good luck.
only rom that didn't freeze and crash on me was nonsensikal froyo.
everything works pretty smooth. altho no longer updated.
im using GSB v4.0 right now and i might change back cause it locks up 5 times a day.

I have been using various roms over the last 1.5 yrs, and just tried this one lately. I didnt like the other sense roms since I needed at least 2.2 to run my favorite app (google voice search). I didnt notice this as a sense rom til lately, and it works well. Only glitches Ive found are no voice directions in Navigation, and that reloading home screen is slow, about 15 seconds. Im planning on trying Supercharger v6 to speed it up, or maybe an overclocking app to help with that delay. Maybe there is a setting to lock home screen in memory, but havent found it yet.
From my experience, every Eris is different; a ROM may work perfectly fine on one Eris and force close half the time on another. My older sister and I both have Erises and her phone works best with a ROM that my phone crashes every time on.
Still, if you need a starting point, I'd recommend small GSB 4.3 ODEX. It's Gingerbread, but it has some very nice ICS theming.
For some reason, Gingerbread ROMs tend to be more stable than Froyo ROMs. Or maybe that's just the case with my Eris.
Good day.
Please advise rom based on 2.2 or 2.3 which has Sense. Thanks
Exodos sense by Mac is a good 2.3+

I have been using GSB 4.3 and it is solid, fast and reliable. I have had 0 problems with it. My little old Eris has never ran better.
thanks for advise!
I flashet it, but noticed it is slow, weather widget always fall down when i try to change my location. And i tried to change system language with locale2 app, but translation adden only for several places 2.1 sense rom had system translation about 95

I bought a cheap bad-esn Eris for my 8 yr old son....just to use as a wifi device (kinda like a ipod touch). I've rooted & have tried a few ROMs but Angry Birds is still pretty laggy. It's playable using Adfree but still real laggy.
Is there any ROM (maybe overclocked) that will play Angry Birds and plants vs zombies w/o lag or is it just too weak?
thx....currently running OMGB_desirec-1.2.2

Most refined (least buggy) Atrix 4g ROM?

I'd rather not have to try out all 10 ROMs. Your 2 cents?
Also, they all seem to be from July-era...?
well they allll have there own lil
niggels but it kinda depends on what
your going to use the atrix for
if you need webtop or webtop over hdmi
try 4.5.5 from darkside he also has cool
themes alienv4 is a trusty standby of mine also for that "use"
if ya dont like gameing on the bigscreen
and just want pure speed use a debloted
rom some still have webtop all cm7 ones
dont
want a stable cm7
use the ba2f...stable cm7 rom
i personally liked neutreno g+ cm7 weekly based i also tested it as it was being build so i makes me smile
how well it turned out and Notourioust544 did a fantastic job on it to..:thumbup:
For gameing in landscape mode and
the ability to use webtop
i gotto give props to Nottach
and his darkside series of roms
IMO; but ive tried almost all of them too.
:sly:
Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk
Thanks I'll take a look at those. I just saw wetdream was released this morning. I'll give it a shot since it sounds like Nottach is pretty seasoned now after his work on darkside.
instead of creating another thread,
can anyone comment on the voltages required for a given frequency on these Tegra2 chips?
I just came from an OGDroid, on those the process variation between the OMAP3430's was next to nil...most ROMs worked at a certain vsel and so the community standardized around those.
For these Tegras it seems to require a bit more user involvement.
So the question, I'm running Clemsyn's elite 1.0ghz, should I bother tampering with the vsels? It looks like on most of these rom's it's about 1mv / 1mhz. IE 1000mhz and 1000mv.
