What does everyone think is the most stable ROM that has the motoblur elements stripped away?
Sent from my Atrix 4G using Tapatalk
the only true nonblur rom out right now is CM7 alpha
I'm running the latest CM7 weekly build (December 10th) on my Atrix, but I would like to play around with the CM9 Alpha every now and then. The ICS alpha doesn't support the camera yet which is the biggest deal breaker. Is it possible for my to dual boot the two so that I can use CM7 when I need the camera or more stability? If so, how might I go about doing this?

Not for the Atrix, unfortunately. Someone did get it working on other phones, but they came across problems on the Atrix.
Backups and restores. Only option.

Alright thanks. I guess I'll just stick with CM7 until CM9 is ready to be my daily driver.
ive been on homebase for a while now and pretty happy with it but i want to try a newer rom that is being supported and update. my requirements are webtop, car dock, hdmi dock and fingerprint scanner are included.
GingerMod or Wet Dream
There's also Darkside but I believe the dev on that one is finishing up support on it

are those the only non cm7/9 roms that are running 2.3.6?

I tried Wet dream, dark side and both works great...
I'm waiting for Dev to finish with cm9 and i'm flashing right away..
the only thing stopping me from flashing cm7 or 9 is that webtop is not supported it.
Pretty much. Darkside is actually 2.3.5

Wet Dream would probably be your best bet

Using Neutrino 2.2 - the best
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
For gingerbread i think darkside (or wet dream) are the best. All stock functions work, as well as landscape hdmi mirroring which are important for me.
However jokersax's cm9 ics build is almost at the point where you can run it as a daily driver. Looks like almost everything will be fixed in the coming week or few

i did try gingermod, which was good except i couldnt get webtop to work on my lapdock. thats a deal breaker for me.
Wet dream is awesome for everything working. Its a must try.

Neutrino 2.2
out of all the roms i have flashed on my atrix 4g ( over 10) i prefer Neutrino and Darkside, but neutrino the most, its both super smooth, lite and powerful, im using the 2.2GT with 1.77.33 baseband and faux 1.3Ghz OC kernal

1. You will have to go Full blur to get everything (car) working.
There is a Script to go full blur or you can add the needed apk's from the script directly in the rom zip (i prefer the second way)
2. Don't think webtop is working on neutrino because it is a stripped down CM7

i just flashed the light version, and all the docks do work. it still has some blur but you dont have to use any of its features. wetdream looks good so far it might be a keeper.
What do you guys think the best ROM for the Atrix 4G is? I was using Neutrino 2.1p and then jumped on the ICS bandwagon with the ICS port (Its still in Alpha - heavily under development).
Neutrino has to be one of the best ROM's I've ever experienced. It's well maintained and has a host of performance improvements.
The ICS alpha is going well but its a long way away from matching the maturity of Neutrino.
Neutrino v2.2 with faux123 latest kernel at 1.45ghz ROCK solid performance.

Do you have it OC'd at 1.45? How's the stability? I used Neutrino GT OC'd at 1.3 and it was super stable.
i was almost on every rom and i still think that stock rom is the best...
maybe MIUI...when it'll come out on a full version and not alpha/beta.
If you can do without a camera the alpha 7 build (non 2d version) has been pretty solid
I have Arabic rom with Faux kernel 1.3 OC with full Ubuntu for Webtop and I am happy
I believe there is an epidemic happening here....

CM7 (weekly builds have fingerprint unlock) is the best.

In my personal tests, Alien works the best for me. I tried CM7, did not like it whatsoever. Neutrino, surprisingly, wasn't giving me very good performance. All in all I think Alien in the best...if only it had stable HDMI mirroring...

Been by far the smoothest ROM I have used. Faux 024_r2 kernel from here:

Blur Roms
If you like all the functions of your Atrix working.
Wet Dream or The Dark Side are the best in my opinion.
Both are by the same dev and are fast and stable for me.
Right now I'm playing with cm9 kang until I need camera
Currently running Jokersax cm9 kang alpha 0.23.2

I'm currently using faux123's 023 kernel and I was wondering if there's a big difference between that and 024r? Thanks.
I'm a fan of MIUI, has a nice clean, finished look to it. However a little bit too iphoneish so I replace the launcher.
ICS rom is coming along very nicely, in fact I obtain the best battery life of any Atrix rom, including stock, while running ICS. This is fantastic since it's still just in the alpha stages and will only improve from here.

Could I suggest we make one of these threads/polls a sticky? The Atrix Dev forum seems to move very fast and would be good to have one thread for people to give their recommendations?
Neutrino 2.2 ftw btw
Hi all,
My cousins atrix has started playing up (keyboard crashes, browser force closes etc) and ive advised that he change roms. Ive been looking though this forum for the past hour or so and am surprised to see so many roms - you guys have so much choice! (Ive got an optimus black and weve got maybe about 4 roms which is nothing compared to you guys!)
Anyway my cousin is a bit of a noob so I dont want to install a rom that will cause problems. Which rom should I install on his atrix please?
Thanks
The most recent releases of CM7, including CM7.2 RC1 and the most current nightly releases, have been pretty stable for me. I couldn't tell you about the non-CM7 ROMs (i.e. the ones based on the stock Atrix ROM) as I haven't used one for quite a while. There are several so-called CM9 ROMs out (based on ICS), but IMHO they aren't stable enough if you rely heavily on your phone, though they are getting there.

Im using joker's cm9. Its actually stable enough to be used as a daily driver. Yes the rom is in beta so there are bugs like video recording/playback, multitouch and small probs here and there due to missing ics drivers.

Wouldn't really consider that stable. Stable to me means everything works. Nottachtrix for stock look, and CM7 for AOSP

Lol technically your right stable means very minor bugs…i just meant that it won't mess up your phone or anything.

I agree - If your cousin doesn't need the fingerprint reader or webtop go with CM7 for now till the devs get the issues worked out on CM9.
Another vote for CM7. Its absolutely rock solid, and the weekly builds have fingerprint scanner support. CM9 is pretty good, but as has been mentioned its missing a few features and does have a few bugs that prevent some from being able to use it as a daily driver.
CM7 RC1 is where it's at now, no issues whatsoever for me.
Anyone know what is the progress of webtop on CM7 or 9?
Instead of CM7, I'd reccomend Neutrino. Install GO Launcher EX, ICS theme for the launcher and system and you've got yourself the best GB ROM with ICS-look.

Yes because I feel that Nuetrino is so stripped down, you have problems. You have to flash add ins

Useless things such as TTS, VPN and Languages have been removed to make the ROM smaller. You just gotta flash a few more tiny .zip's...
Neutrino is better than CM7 at the base level. I reccomend you flash Neutrino GT+ version and under/overclock the CPU according to your needs.

+1 ╰☆╮Neutrino ROM V2.6╰☆╮ ....it is the best for battery and performance in my view....if you need the blur (webtop)... all three of Nottach roms are great although he supports only NottachTrix4G....
+1 for CM7.
I'd recommend you CM7 with faux kernel.

I found myself flashing around 20 add-ons to get the phone to work properly.
For a first time custom rom flash I'd go with Nottachtrix, very stable and Aroma Installer makes it very easy to customize to your liking.

I flash ROMs like crazy and I have to say Neutrino is by far the greatest rom! So what if you have to flash a few zips....thats how he made such an amazing rom...He stripped it down to the basics and you add the stuff that you want. I use the GT version but underclock to 1.00GHz most of the time...Saves battery but if I need the power, its available to me. 2.7 is out now....it has a wifi bug on the GT and GT+ versions though. You have to reflash faux's kernal to fix. Otherwise just use EE version. Its plenty fast enough without overclock.
