[Q] Use fingerprint reader as scroll? - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I recently got a an atrix, and been changing roms like mad... in one of those roms, I dont remember which one (maybe one based on CM7?) the fingerprint reader worked as a scroll... I could enter the browser and scroll down just swiping my finger.
Now I have a mostly stock rom (GingerROM based on 2.3.6), but the fingerprint reader only works for unlock, and there is no way to configure it for something else...
Can I install something to make it work as a scroll?

Yep, go back to CM7. Pretty much your only option if you want fingerprint scrolling.

Are there any ways to use fingerprint as scroll for Stock based ROM. I wouldn't like use CM7 or CM9 because reboot or freeze error, I think stock based ROM is appropriate for daily use.

Miui cm7 now got fingerprint scrolling

If you are looking for a solution without rooting + flashing a rom, you can use WidgetLocker, but personal experiences tell me that it's best to stick with the stock one.

I'm rooted but no custom rom as of yet

There is nothing currently unless running a custom rom. The pattern lock is tied to the lock screen unfortunately. Widgetlocker does work but I was getting the stock one pop up all too often while using it. I probably should of contacted the developer but never did.
I am in the same boat as you. Use the pattern lock but don't want the lockscreen. What I'm doing currently is just dealing with the stock lockscreen but using WiFi unlock so when I am at work/home both are disabled (no need for me to have pattern lock active unless I am out and about.) Just a suggestion.

can you post the source....from where you found this rom
What is working?
I do not know what works and what does not
on the site also does not say it
rom is booting, but i can't unlock the phone
a blue circle which is moving over my finger and all
Seems to me it's from this forum-
http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=284507&st=40&start=40
This isnt a development thread, a moderator should move it to general section because its a link to another webpage only.
The main thing about this rom is the sensors are not working, the boot up is different and wierd. normal booting time. Sensors are totally not working. Force Close at start up.Well Its pre alpha so this bugs are common. just wait for andy's ics phoenix rom coming out soon.
Is this same as SWEATTAIMI??

Okay, i tested and flashed this ROM, its not at all similar to SWEATTAIMIs port.. this one uses .32 kernel while SWEATTAIMIs uses a .35 kernel.. i guess this has been done from the source as there are many different bugs...
I got a headache trying to unlock this ROM.. LOL.
anyway, wait for andys ROM...

Multitouch issue..

Oke guys, i think i have to make this thread. Bcz i read some threads and still found someone asking about their multitouch doesnt working.
The problem is about locksreen apps.
At least i found this issue while installing widgetlocker and milocker.
I tested by downloading one by one my apps from market and then check the multitouch, and stop when i installed widgetlocker bcz my multitouch doest works again. (It waste my time in about 3 hours)
So, if you had that multitouch issue you can test by uninstalling your lockscreen apps and then reboot. If it still doesnt works you can just ask to rom or kernel devs.
And for devs or smart people (im stupid one.. yeaaa) i hope you could find how to fix this issue, is unfortunate we cant improve our phone themes by install any lockscreen apps.
Terimakasih.

I had this issue with widget locker as well.
To fix it, open WidgetLocker and go into the settings>advanced and enable "Retain System Keyguard".
Lock your phone and unlock it. Now try a multitouch tester and it should work fine.

Oh yea it will work from then on. You just have to lock it once so the changes take effect.
had this issue as well.
For me is was caused by widget locker
Switched to GO locker and the same thing.
So now I use stock lock screen
Its also helped my battery

Yep I used this some time ago only problem is if you use widgets or app shortcuts on the lockscreen you will have to use the stock unlock after tapping them. Not a huge deal if you don't use any clickable widgets though.

Hi, I tried your solution but it doesn't seem to work with my HTC Desire S (Cyanogenmod 7.1) I put a custom slider and 2 widgets, is that the problem? Does it have something to do with disabling stock lock?
Thanks in advance

[Q] Multicollaboration CM9

I have the Multiollaboration CM9 ROM and really like it, but i couldn't get past a certain bug. The browser was unreliable at best, it would force close almost every time i used it. When i switch it to landscape it would freeze on me, and dont i could forget about zooming. I am wondering if anyone can confirm having the same/similar issues as me, or is there a browser i can use that will work fine?
All browsers are like that as of right now, as for me. Stock browser works well but opera isn't working for me. Landscape is a known issue in browser apps though. You could wipe and reinstall if worst comes to worst

Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
I am running jokers latest with 2d fix on faux 1.45 kernel. browser does crash when switching to landscape. but that is it. hardly never when not switching. maybe wiping and clean install is needed.
XScope is working fine for me on Jokersax CM9 with Faux 1.0GHz 025 kernel. No problems with freezing or FC in landscape.

paranoid android (rom) (unlocked) 6/8/2012

hey guys this is a port of the paranoidandroid rom found here ( major thanks to everyone invovled in making it , looks sweet )
as usual i put it into jokers cm9
another project by
TEAM MOTO TEGRA
instructions:
can flash over any cm9 based rom except for miui, if coming from miui, cm7, or any blur/stock based rom a full wipe is required
use th3bills wipe all or wipe cache depending on your flashing method
flash rom
flash rom
flash hybrid gapps
* if maps or other apps seem to be missing flash another gapps package that has them then reflash hybrid gapps
current build: based on jokers cm9 6.9.2 and paranoidandroid 1.1
link to jokers site for paranoidandroid
link to my goo account
flash this to keep up to date with the latest releases...search for spleef when inside the app
having fc in browser,facebook,gmail,etc... flash this after first boot linky
thanks to everyone for flashing and please make a backup prior to flashing and remember to report any and everything...thanks
hints/tips:
Go to Settings, System, Font size, set it to NORMAL
Check "Auto Hide" in Settings, System, Statusbar, to finally get Fullscreen (or Hold power button, and press "Toggle StatusBar")
Launcher Settings: margins: SMALL (If youre using Apex / Nova), show permanent searchbar: YES, Grid: 5x4, resize all widgets: YES, Wallpaper scrolling: OFF
1: Stay away from "Global Density" "Default SystemUI DPI" and "Default SystemUI DPI" settings in "paranoid settings"
Messing with these settings caused some systemUI force closes that caused my notification bar to disappear and the only way to get it back was to do a full wipe and re-install.
Any change to the UI you want to make can be made easily through the "list apps" setting. Just navigate to the "settings" apk and make the LAYOUT "Tablet." Set the Dpi to 190, and it fits perfect. Any app the you want to be "tablet" moded can done this way as well.
Enable "tablet" LAYOUT for nova launcher. Set the DPI to 220. Navigate to "Nova Settins." Go to Destop/Width Margin and set to none. Same with Height Margin. Now go to "Dock" and change the "Width Margin" to none as well.
Now we are able to use all the space on the screen instead of it all being squished together, and you will get the neat tablet "3d blue cube" effect when changing home screens.

Flash over. Since gong to ICS ROMS I always flash over with no issues. Usually I have to flash gapps 9 then 11 and my Maps works fine. I flashed gapps 9 then Hybrid and they were there and worked but then when I rebooted the phone they were gone.
**Edit** Fixed. I had forced Maps into system/app before flashing Jokers then Hybrid and it stuck so there were two apk's. Deleted the one I pushed and rebooted and Maps are back
Flashed this morning, all good here. Tried to apply a cm9 theme and boot loops. So I guess no go for that. Haven't really looked at much other than that, had to wipe and reflash just now.
