Have any bell Atrix owners been successful at installing gingerblur?
I have been googling the hell out of this, and it looks like a Big ol' no...
I'd really love to whip up a Bell version, but I'm hesitating due to the lack of an SBF file for Bell devices. If my ROM messes up your phone... you'd be screwed without an SBF!
Any way to restore via the cwm? Not sure how that works..

A custom Bell Atrix Rom would need to be cooked.
If someone gets around to doing this... please fix the HSUPA issue and the microphone driver issue... I would love to be able to use Skype on my phone which I have not been able to do since getting my Atrix. AT&T fixed this last month thanks to firmware updates.
Running Gingerblur 4 right now on my Bell Atrix and it runs great!

If you flash the french u4_2.1.1 sbf first, you should be able to flash Gingerblur.
I know u could flash Greyblur (and I did) over the french 2.1.1 sbf, so Gingerblur should also work.
Once on it will swap your framework to the AT&T version and then you will no longer have compatability issues with any rom or theme on here, AFAIK.
I haven't flashed Gingerblur myself but I flashed Greyblur and then a theme and it's working beautifully on my Bell Atrix.
There is a thread here on flashing/rooting/deodexing/theming the french 2.1.1 sbf, you should check it out.

I flashed gingerblur v4 over greyblur on my Bell atrix and it didn't work. Every time I tried to boot it would freeze on the boot screen and give me the flashing red led, and then reboot itself. I am hesitant to try it again.

I think you may have to flash the stock french 2.1.1 and then flash Gingerblur.
I remember reading somewhere that flashing one p-rom over another can cause issues.
Did you do a factory restore/wipe after flashing Gingerblur?
I haven't flashed Gingerblur because of all the issues people are reporting in the thread and I have had zero issues with Greyblur so I am still running it, albeit the themes I have flashed have updated the framework to Gladiatrix.
I know Greyblur is based on 1.5.7 but all the themes out now use the framework from 1.8.3 so it still gets updated.

What's strange is that I had previously flashed gingerblur 3.5 over greyblur 2.1 with no issues. I did do a factory reset after I installed gingerblur 4, but not before. I was more curious than anything. After reading the changelog it doesn't appear like much has been added, and especially nothing that I couldn't live without. On a sidenote, have you experienced difficulty getting your facebook contact pictures to sync into your contacts? It seems like whenever I try about 60% or so sync and the rest don't. Just wondering if you've had similar issues with your greyblur.
Bump an old thread??

I have successfully flashed grey blur, and then ginger blur on my Bell Atrix. So our can definitely be done. I flashed the ginger blur twice, and then did a factory reset.

I have custom contact pics for most of my contacts, but I DON'T use Facebook pics for it, so I have never tried syncing them. In fact, that is the first thing I disabled when I installed the FB app.
As for Greyblur, I haven't had an issue since I flashed it, and that was about a month ago.
It's no longer Greyblur really though. I have flashed a few themes which have since replaced the framework with Gladiatrix versions, so it's only MOSTLY Greyblur now, lol.

I have the same problem sometimes. I just cancel and restart. I was thinking it was just something in bamf... But I'm having issues with streaming, might just be network issues.

I'm rooted, running Bamf 1.6.2. I started noticing this problem after the 4g network went down a few weeks ago. I'm not in a 4g area though, just running on 3g. Everything else works perfectly fine, just can't download from the market when I'm connected to data.

A handful of my co-workers on various Verizon Android phones were saying that Gingerbread updates stop tethering apps from working, even if rooted and side-loaded.
I would like to try CM7 since it just released, but I can't lose my tethering! Am I worrying about nothing?
I'm using WiFi tether on CM7 and it works fine. You shouldn't have to worry since CM7 is not built by Verizon or anything, so they can't block tethering apps in the OS.

Can you link the wifi tether you use please, and let me know if you changed any settings. I'm rocking MIUI, not sure if that matters or not but doesn't hurt to try.
Thanks

I'm using this WiFi tether app: http://android-wifi-tether.googlecode.com/files/wifi_tether_v3_1-beta2.apk
Once installed, I went to the settings, and changed the Device-Profile to Google NexusOne. Works great and it shouldn't matter if it's CM7 or MIUI.
I'm on the newest miui using wifi tether app with no problems

They are blocking tethering on stock roms, so if you are running CM7/MIUI etc you will be fine.
You may have to sideload. Verizon asked Google to hide certain apps, like PDAnet, from the market. This violates their net neutrality agreement, and they are being sued over it. Verizon stock updates are also set to tattle on you if you tether. If running touchwiz, I believe you need a modified kernel with dummy tether.

For devices the Verizon is giving an official Gingerbread build, they are slipping in ways to disable Wireless Tether. It's also hidden in the market, but it's easy to find an APK to install yourself. However, if you're running Gingerbread on the fascinate, you're doing it on a custom ROM, which doesn't have that nasty bit of Verizon code.

I am 99% certain I know the answer to this, but I just want to be 100% sure;
I am running SuperClean 3 Milestone 1, TW Launcher, and KGB Kernel with Voodoo enabled on my Fascinate. I just installed http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/detail?name=wireless_tether_2_0_7.apk, but haven't tried it yet. Is Verizon going to know if I am tethering with this configuration?
Thanks!
I think it honestly depends.
If you are using it to seach the web and do basic surfing than i dont think it matters to them.
If you start streaming Netflicks at HD quality or Bit Torrents [heavy bandwidth], they might suspect something.
I have used both the wifi tether and barnacle on ICS and GB for quick and dirty usage and i have never had VZW say a thing to me.
That is just my personal experience.
My $0.02:
I am running SC3 Milestone 2 and the KGB FA16 Kernel and have had no trouble tethering with my tablet or laptop using wifi tether 3.1 Beta 6.
You can pick your Beta flavor for the app using the link CCampos provided.
I have not tethered. Though I want to. (Hotspot feature) don't want Verizon to suspect something and then charge me.
Can't they charge me if they find out?
If I'm running CM7, will they still know?

My (very limited) understanding as of right now is that a custom ROM alone is not enough to keep Verizon in the dark. A think you need a custom kernel as well to be safe, and never use the Verizon hot spot app. Am I right?

All other discussion aside, clockwork mod has put a new app out that allows usb tethering without root on any ROM and can not be blocked by any carrier. Just search cwm or clock work mod in the market

Maybe Verizon can't block you from tethering with this app, but can they monitor if you are? And then hit you with a charge later, or drop you from service?
My. 02 cents.....I use an App called Open Garden Wifi with no problems at all.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Just throwing this out there: I've never seen any *confirmed* reports of Verizon retroactively charging customers for "illegal" tethering, or ending your service/contract. Not sure why people get so worried about getting caught, it's not like the phone police are gonna come take you to jail.
If I'm wrong on this and Verizon is in fact charging those who tether (who don't pay Verizon's tethering charge) or terminating their contracts, I'd love to see evidence to the contrary.
I ran up 18 gb last month. From Xbox live and other teathering because its my only access. Never have issues.

Hello all. Stupid question. My co-worker has recently gotten a milestone x2 from ntelos here in Virginia. I know that they run off of vzw towers and wondered if any of the dx2 Rom work for the mmx2? The only things i have found are threads about people asking if cm7 or miui will work and there was one that, the de said he does not ensure that it will work, but that they had removed the security checks
Sent from my SGH-I777 using XDA Premium App
Maybe the next miui if you NEED Wifi.
If you don't any 235 based rom should be good.
Watch for roms based on 235/413 and they should for everything.
As this works for everything on the Dx2

I have nTelos for my service and I have tried several of the different roms out there. Specifically I have tried the Eclipse and Molten. Eclipse ran great I loved the rom... only thing is the wifi does not work. I have tried flashing the CM7 and Muiu and I have not gotten them to work. Everytime I try them it says, "could not load file". I have not tried a lot though so does not mean its not possible.
This has been my experience with each of the roms.
This works But as tested on a 236 mx2 no wifi.

You can flash Miui and the same script mod will let you flash CM7 too.
The 2nd one as it pertains to Miui would be no WiFi also.
CM 7 is prolly no wifi also but who knows?

Anybody else having their phone restart randomly while using Maps after todays update to version 6.10??
I specifically get a hard restart about 10 seconds or so after trying to use Latitude, and occasionally (randomly) while using My Places or Local or the Location Settings menu.
