ive been seeing ppl talking about the atrix and MoPho almozt being the same phone so can u run atrix stuff like roms,bootscreens and themes on the MoPho without any really problems...
You can probably run bootscreens from them - but the frameworks of the 2 devices are too different to run roms and themes.
Ty for the info

hello everyone. I hope to get the X2 soon. I see that their isnt much for this phone so far but i was wondering how far people have come along with unlocking the bootloader and making custom roms before i actually do get the phone. Either way its a kickass phone but i might get the bionic because it has 4g. i dont really care about facetime but 4g would be nice. One thing i have noticed is that my friends X2 is scoring 2343 on quadrant standard compared to my dads bionic who is scoring 2168, kinda wierd. but anyways hope i do get this phone and can help contribute to the developing side of things!

roms
i think sand pretty much nailed it.... eclipse has been getting the most attention from it's developer though and is ahead of the curve as far as the workability of the rom goes. i liked atrix just fine, but it has more blur on it, and clocked quite a bit slower on my x2. the eclipse developer has even created 2 versions of eclipse. one with most of the blur removed and one that still contains a touch. hope this helps.
Honestly I either suck at searching through forums or there honestly isn't a whole lot of development for the photon at the moment :/. I've been trying to find a buddy of mine an awesome setup for his photon. Ive been romming my droid 2 for over a year going from Liberty to Apex to CM7 etc. overclocking and undervolting. this photon has so much more potential but where are some roms with active development??? I don't mind if they are blur-based if they feel like AOSP? But overclocking kernals and unlocking the bootloader? Should we aim for that? And is cm7 development picking up? or even miui? What are your setups for this monster of a machine?!?! and advice is appreciated

Okay, so for starters, you've got a good phone to use as a base. There are not AOSP ROM's and MIUI will come after we get CM7 booting, which is still in the works. We have a kernel right that that is OC'd to 1.3 ghz which absoluetely flies, it's great, I personally run the Home Base ROM myself. It's a legit one, but it isn't up to date with the latest OTA from Sprint, so you may be best going with the SBF file that is 198_7. So I'm Rooted/Unlocked Home Base ROM 2.1 with update 4.2 and 1.3 Kernel.
Ok so I am new to the whole rooting experience and I am trying to get some new ROM's on my phone. I need some great ROM's and some steps to go through to successfully ROOT my MOPHO. I have done it already but had issues when I tried to do the Alien ROM. ANY HELP????????????????????????????????????????

Hey man, I really suggest reading the Development Thread. It gives you step by step instructions how to root, unlock, and flash ROMs. I would also suggest watching qbking77's videos on youtube so you get a visual guide. Regarding themes, we've got some great ones in the Theme/App thread that you should try out once you're rooted and are running that ROM of your choice. First things first though, learn how to root, backup your phone, and restore...it's key if you ever screw up.
I rooted my phone before and was successful with that but then when I tried to do a ROM I got a bunch of error because I deleted something and now I just got it back to the stock/factory settings.
Go to Youtube and type in how to root the motorola photon and watch the videos by qbking
This photon dev sucks

I have owned a samsung moment evo3d nexsus s 4 g and photon this is the worst development ever like odin the unlock is unlock then root and recovery in the same it seems poorly put together and qbking lol magnify rom suks quit saying its the best im thinking s2 and give this to my girl and like wheres the roms magnify basicly a little theming done to stock. Then cm7 looks the best except im not wanting to edit i mean i can just really not feeling it
Actually you can Google "one click photon root"
I did get the root back. I found a one click root and have root access all again. I am just trying to find out how to keep 4G and get custom ROM's and/or ICS(Ice Cream Sandwich) OS for Android. That would be amazing! Any help????????????????
You can attempt porting ics..and u can try the alien rom with 4g..read the thread...itll show u how to do it..

Sorry for my ignorance but what do you mean Port ICS? And what do you think about Alien Rom with 4G? Because I heard some mix reviews.
I just think this post can help with some beginners as well as me. Just trying to get as much info as I can. Don't want to brick my phone again lol
Well, basically since we don't have an official ICS release for our phone yet, you'd need to build it to our phones specs. I don't know anything about how to do that, as I'm not a technical/rom/kernel developer.
Regarding Alien ROM..it was a good ROM to start with when the phone was in the early stages. Thanks to KenPenn who brought that over from the Atrix.. The themeing is great on it, but I have to say again that this was an older build before the phone went through the latest updates and won't be fully functional for the latest builds. You can always try it, and then flash back if you don't like it.

No dice at this time. 4G breaks when you unlock. ICS is only as CM9, and that requires unlocked loader. Skinny4G through bootstrap (see QBKing77 video) is only way to get rom and keep 4G. Won't be able to overclock though.

Magnifier rom actually works pretty well. It definitely feels lighter than the stock rom. It was really nice paired with jokeraxs 1.4 oc kernel. Personally, I use the skinnyrev2 pre test with the same 1.4oc kernel.
Funny that you are making fun of qbking and Magnifier ROM...where's your ROM you developed, or your how-to video? I give a lot of credit to the group at ACS for making both a quality ROM as well as great videos to help make rooting and modding your photon easy.

Figured there would be some kind of announcement. Just gotta wait now!
I have tried ROCKO rom and CM9 on my electrify. I have to say that CM9 is a great rom. ROCKO is great if youe like motoblur. WOuld really depend upon what type rom you like.
after root you have to unlock with pudding in order to put 95% of the roms on your phone and you will lose 4g in the process.
It's all in the title ?
I have the opportunity to buy today an Atrix at around 250 €. For that, I'll sell my HD2 and would like to know if its a smart move "Custom Roms" wise ?
I know nothing about the Atrix but my prioritiy is to be able to run stock CM7 (I've seen roms on the Dev section) and later, CM9.
Is MIUI available ?
Is the community very much alive or dying as the Atrix is coming out ?
Thanks !

Miui is in alpha, cm7 completely stable and cm9 is being worked on. There are quite a few blur based ROMS to choose from as well. I'm definitely not disappointed with my atrix
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
development seems to have to have taken off in the last month or two and definitely try some blur based roms. you will b surprised how well people have tweaked them
Great. I think I'll try then even though I know it won't reach the level of development of the HD2. I need a break from xda anyway...
I know that its a noobish question but i really want to know that if any 1 can port official ICS to the vibrant from s3 or any other device....i just wanted to ask this because vibrant was updated to 2.2 only but then explodingboy70 a very nice developer ported I9000 official 2.3.6 to the vibrant from galaxy s I9000 i know that they are different devices so it must be very hard for him but he did it with additional features(if interested you can read the details in the link) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1258224 so why cant we port official ICS from any device to the vibrant
Why need official? AOKP and CM9 are tons better.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus running AOKP+Franco
They are tons better but they have tons of bugs in them....i want to use a bug free ICS rom and want to taste the true ICS first and not the modified ones..

Get a phone with ICS or that can handle it without a problem, and you'll get your wish. You can't expect so much out of a 2 year old phone...
i am asking that why cant we port official ics to the vibrant
these guys are building such great roms of ics vibrant then why cant they port official ics to the vibrant and vibrant can handle ics easily because we have already seen it....roms like ics passion and gummy run very smoothly on vibrant and vibrant has the capability of handling ics...but i think then its battery ill drain alilfast

I'm sorry, but are you insane?
ALL of these ICS ROMS are great. If you think Passion is smooth, think about it like this. Passion was last updated MARCH 3rd. It's June 8th right now.
Although I respect neo for his work, he abandoned that ROM.
Try something else. ICS ROMS do not have bugs, the only bug that I know of that is common is probably the 911 bug, or GPS.
Do you think Porting over an "official" version will remove those bugs?
Anyways, I give you TWO options.
1) Go flash a good ICS ROM and enjoy it.
2) get your ass on Froyo and stay there.
If you REALLY want the same damn thing we already have, go find a script its in the dev. section which will let you port I9000 ROMS with ease.
