I am pleased to announce that I've patched the Atrix webtop files, allowing us to run webtop over HDMI on HKTW, AT&T 4.5.91 and ORFR 4.5.2A based system images (yes this will work on custom ROMs too), without the requirements of an official dock!
The goal is to enable the Webtop function over HDMI on any display, not just official Motorola Docks. There seem to be more HDMI display options that are disabled, for example: Clock Widget, Gallery, Music, Home. Sadly, none of these options actually do anything on the big screen, they just display the interface on the phone
However, Webtop works great! Just use the instructions below to replace the original DockService and PortalApp apk's.
Included are two versions of the DockService in the zip attached to this thread, one will enable only the additional Webtop mode for HDMI. The second one will be a "dev" version that enables every option, for those of you that are curious and/or want to try to get some of them to work over HDMI! Only one version of PortalApp is included, which is required for webtop to work, with both versions of the DockService.
One particularly interesting option that many of you are interested in is included in the dev build too: Mirror phone on display . Sadly, as stated above, it does not work (yet?). Will you get it to work?
Requirements:
Have one of the supported build and functional webtop flashed
Be rooted
Be able to work with adb
First, unpack the attached zip-file.
Go into the correct directory for your version.
Now run (in a terminal)
Code:
adb push DockService.apk /sdcard/
adb push PortalApp.apk /sdcard/
adb shell
# you are now in the phone shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system
mv /system/app/DockService.apk /system/app/DockService.apk.bak
mv /system/app/PortalApp.apk /system/app/PortalApp.apk.bak
mv /system/app/DockService.odex /system/app/DockService.odex.bak
mv /system/app/PortalApp.odex /system/app/PortalApp.odex.bak
rm /data/dalvik-cache/*DockService* /data/dalvik-cache/*PortalApp*
cd /system/app
cp /sdcard/DockService.apk ./
cp /sdcard/PortalApp.apk ./
chown 0:0 ./DockService.apk
chown 0:0 ./PortalApp.apk
chmod 644 ./DockService.apk
chmod 644 ./PortalApp.apk
reboot
NOTE: if these instructions dazzle you, try Ronaldo's CWM package (for AT&T only!): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15871616&postcount=53
NOTE2: ignore errors concerning odex files if you are deodexed.
NOTE3: If you have issues with the Touchscreen Input not working, try a reboot first. If the problem doesn't go away: fastboot flash a (stock) webtop image for your base ROM. It is currently unclear what causes this problem, but my guess is a bad flash of the webtop partition, possibly CWM related. Reboot/reflash has solved the problem for a few people encountering this issue.
Thanks to Gizmo, eval & romracer!
More information on dev version
Some extra information on the different modes that are available (but currently non-functional):
Clock: Transform your phone screen into a big clock with perks. See the time from afar, set alarms, play music, view photos and get live weather information. This mode was designed for your bedside but is useful in the kitchen and as a desk clock too.
WidgetDock: Get access to the same Android widgets, apps and shortcuts as on your phone home screen. Arrange them and change the wallpaper to your liking. All of which will be saved and applied the next time your dock your phone.
Mirror: Access and display all of the phone applications on a larger display
Other: Displays non-smart mode dock apps
Gallery: View photos and videos
Music: Access, listen, and share music
There is also mention of an "easport" option, with the following description: "Entertainment detailed description goes here. To be added later."
Although not working currently, they give a good insight in what is to come
IMO, one of the best features of the Atrix right here. You're the man!
Great, I was looking forward to this. Thanks again.

Bull****, this was all you!! Awesome work, BTW =) Excited to go back to 2.3.4!
Touch pad controls dont work for me
Everything works fine
Holy **** ! That is all.
So, frist, thanx for this excelent work! Now my webtop works.
I just have one problem, my mousepad on lapdock doesnt work!
works great! thanks!
Awesome work! I only used my atrix for a few minutes before flashing 2.3.4 so I have no idea how well this worked before, but I'm pleased. All I know is when I plug in the HDMI, it restarts into the webtop mode and it works well from there. The entertainment center app crashes but that isn't as a result of this, it definitely did that when I tried to run it before.
mouse not working
loads fine but no mouse control for me either..
Same for me. The webtop loads up fine, but no mouse control on the touchpad.

if by touchpad you mean using the screen of the phone as a touchpad, it's working fine. I don't have a lapdock to test, but I could walk over to the AT&T store in the AM to check it out.
Edit: if that is the case, and something is working on my Atrix but not on many others, I assure you it was just a lucky accident. I may be a systems engineer by date but by night I'm little more than an Android n00b. I'll gladly poke around on my device to collect info that might help others get their webtops sorted.
I successfully flashed the webtop and the touchpad is working fine. But I did notice at times, GUI became unresponsive to the touchpad (touchscreen). It it not perfect, but it works
See now this almost makes me wish I still had my Atrix...
I would love to tinker around with these APKs some more. Especially with the new options cropping up.
But, as it is I am doing it all blind... doing DEV for a phone you don't have is tricky business.
Awesome!! Worked perfect!
Installed using ADB via OP commands. Never flashed the CG61.img or the Update's for HKTW 2.3.4 - Roll-up of Fixes and Mods (Navalynt's Mod) that included the Webtop Fix and I am having absolutely NO problems using the screen as the mouse pad.
Make sure you followed all commands and set the permissions correctly with the chmod command.
No problems at all here, but I did flash the non-dev apk.... if you flashed the dev apk then that may be where the mouse pad issue is, I can not confirm.

I have just finished porting 2nd-init to the Atrix. It was mostly a clean port from the Defy. I didn't modify the code, just compiled it. The work was in the install/wrapper. There was also a new issue, in that we have SMP, and the code expected non-SMP.
This opens up custom ROMs, like CM7. This does not unlock the bootloader or allow custom kernels.
BETA BETA BETA
It has been tested on AT&T 1.5.7 and 1.8.3. I recommend only developers play with this for now. It is not that useful be itself, but expect to see lots of new things happen based on this.
I welcome feedback. Also feel free to Donate via the "Donate to me" link under my username, top left, on XDA. The goal is to use donations to purchase hardware that will help me get kexec working, or finding a way to unlock the bootloader.
Enjoy!
Update 2
Brandon15811 and I made a 2ndinit apk based installer. It has been tested. I still advise caution when using this. It is based on the DroixXBootstrap code.
It requires SuperUser.apk to already be installed, and working.
Steps for the apk:
1. Get it on the phone however you like
2. Install the apk
3. Open Atrix 2ndinit
4. Click Install
5. Click OK when the dialog comes up
6. Install Android Terminal Emulator from the Market
7. Open Android Terminal Emulator
8. type ls -al /sys/kernel/debug<enter>
Update
I have added a change from NFHimself in version 1.0.1. It lets you disable it by using USB Early Enumeration. You do this by turning off the phone, turning it back on while holding the down arrow, using the down arrow till you see USB Early Enumeration, and then up arrow once to boot. I have tested change.
I am also working on some form of simpler installer. It may become as simple as an apk.
We know it breaks in it's current form with Gingerbread. Though we also know others have gotten it to work before on Gingerbread. I will also be working on 2nd-init for Gingerbread.
Thanks to eval!

This method starts 2nd-init via mount_ext3.sh, which is line 108 of /init.rc.
My init.rc continues at line 109 with a couple tweaks.
Warning! This conflicts with Tenfar's ClockWorkMod(aka CWM) Recovery
If the phone is wall charging, you shut down the phone, and start it, it will boot CWM
To avoid this, open System Recovery and hit Charge Mode.
It may also conflict with other recovery tools, or other things that tweak the normal boot process.
Tweaks:
/sys/kernel/debug mounted
reboot on zygote crash commented out
Install:
Install SSHDroid from Market. It is free.
Make sure wifi is setup and working.
Run SSHDroid
Make sure it says it is running.
Fill in the ip address in the command below. SSHDroid will display it.
Windows:
Use WinSCP to put 2nd-init-1.0.1.tar.bz2 in /data

Big shoutouts to:
2nd-init------
skrilax_cz for writing this awesome trick!
edgan for getting it working on atrix with taskset
this hack:
eval for crazy loopback mount idea and all scripts
unknown for lots of helpful testing and debug
XLR88 for the system.img of GB 2.3.4
This is an example of the sort of thing that 2ndinit makes possible
but it is a quick hack and running with the wrong kernel - so still buggy
Bugs
1) The screen flips out when locked, so basically you swipe left and screen goes right.
2) No wifi
3) Camera dont work
4) Moto sign in not working
5) fingerprint
Working
1) Mobile data
2) network
3) Google sign in
4) Market
5) Calls
Will update when fixes are found and bugs are ironed out.

WATCH HERE
If anyone can help to solve the flip of screen here is some clues that may help
1) screen is working prefectly until screen turns off, then it flips
Glad my work could be of use =)
And thanks for taking this off my hands while I'm away... hope you can fix the touch screen left-right input flip ... if anyone has any ideas, PM me, _unknown and stevendeb25. Here's to hoping all international users can enjoy 2.3.4 soon!
PS. haha thanks for quoting all my cursing in IRC about my /data failures
How my hack works
For international devs who want an idea of how I did it (before stevendeb25's tutorial & release) the following details my mount_ext3.sh:
Loopback hack only loads if you fastboot menu to early USB enum, so, run if ro.usb_mode==debug (plus helps us debug to adb early... why /system/etc/rootfs/default.prop we copy to / has ro.secure=0 & persist.service.adb.enable=1) In addition to default.prop we copy, extracted files from GB's ramdisk:, /init, /init.rc (modified, comment out mounting /system) and ueventd.rc from etc/rootfs, plus symlink /sbin/ueventd->/init.
Next, mknod and mount /preinstall rw, where we keep taskset, 2nd-init and busybox binaries, as well as system.img (CG60 from hktw 2.3.4 sbf.) It's probably already in /dev/block/ but this varied across froyo builds so mknod and mount rw to be safe. Good idea to use /preinstall/busybox from now on as /system mount dis/appears.
e2fsck -y the system.img and then losetup the loopback mount, umount -f -l /system, and mount -t ext3 <loopbackdevice> /system. For debug cat out /proc/mounts to a file in /preinstall or /data, actually I also append ">>/preinstall/debug 2>&1" to every command. Finally, now you can (taskset) 2nd-init your new system!
Unfortunately, seems necessary to fastboot -w or just rm -r /data/* between boots of froyo and GB. Annoying, but I couldn't easily get a GB-only /data mounted.
Now, can you fix the input flip left-right after lock screen? Clues are: it doesn't happen if this trick is tried on GB kernel (with Froyo ramdisk, system, and same 2nd-init trick.) Also, it persists after warm reboot, GB->GB. Pulling in /system/lib/hw from Froyo didn't help. Tho you'll want to bring back (and insmod) aev.ko, evfwd.ko, plus revert dhd.ko to Froyo version, as the first two are in-kernel on GB, and the latter seems to differ. I am fairly confident most bugs can be fixed by replacing (lock screen? nvrm_daemon?) pieces of GB userspace with Froyo versions in system.img. I just lost a bit of ambition after finding the fastboot oem unlock in the BL plus I will be away for a bit.
So, good luck to stevendeb25 and all you non-ATT Atrix hackers!
At least International users get some Gingerbread love! Good job guys!
i can't believe!!!
what a great new!!!

Wow, good work guys. I am sure this has been torture for international users. For the past couple of weeks, we in the states (or anyone on at&t) have been like kids on Christmas, while everyone else sits on the sidelines It's a good thing the 2nd init port got put to good use.

Other way around... if you pull in dhd.ko from the latest Froyo build you flashed on your system, as well as aev.ko and evfwd.ko (and /system/etc/firmware or wifi/ ?) into loopback mounted /system you will have more chance of working wifi in HKTW2.3.4. (HINT HINT you could do this directly in the mount_ext3.sh script... copy useful 2.2 stuff to /preinstall, copy back into new /system after unmount,remount, even insmod if you have to...)
Remember, this trick produces a mismatch between /system version (GB,2.3.4) and kernel version in boot.img which is actually running. We can take care of ramdisk post-hoc before 2nd-init but older kernel and its API is still in place so pieces of HKTW userspace will have to be replaced/modded to fix bugs. This version of mount_ext3 is an early release for the hackers who want to tinker until it works... good luck! I will have only web and ssh access off and on for 10 days but can answer any questions by PM, on IRC or here..
BACKTOP v0.00001
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Alright, so this is a guide to finally get the backtrack 5 software running inside of webtop. It uses chroot and xterm to allow full access to the software contained within the backtrack 5 arm image.
Prerequisites:
CWM Installed:
For all version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1138541
WebTopMOD installed:
For 2.3.4 go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1169457
For 1.8.3 go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1093790
You do not need to download the Debian disk image. Will we be using the backtrack disk image instead.
BusyBox Installed in /system/bin:
Downloaded "BusyBox Installer" from the app store.
BE SURE TO INSTALL IN /SYSTEM/BIN!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The Goods:
BackTop.zip:
Download and un-zip the attached files into /sdcard/bt
BackTop.zip
BackTrack 5 ARM Image:
PART 1 : Download Link : http://bit.ly/p1BT5
PART 2 : Download Link : http://bit.ly/BT5p2
PART 3 : Download Link : http://bit.ly/BT5p3
These download links are from the xperia backtrack project and where I took inspiration to get it working in webtop. After using 7z to unarchive just place bt.img in the /sdcard/bt folder. The archives other contents can be safely ignored.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What you should have by now:
WebTOPMOD for Atrix.
BusyBox Installed in /system/bin.
Downloaded scripts placed in the /sdcard/bt folder.
Downloaded bt.img placed in the /sdcard/bt folder.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Give it a go:
Step 0: Connect the phone to display/lapdock. Run webtop and wait for it to boot.
Step 1: Open LXTerminal from the dock and type "cd /sdcard/bt"
Step 2: To run BackTop type "sudo bash backtop"
You should be presented with a white xterm screen. You can now use all the utilities built into backtrack 5 with ease. You can even run the gnome desktop environment! (More on that bellow)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Running Gnome:
You first need to kill off all the webtop crap do this by typing the following in xterm.
"ps ax|grep awn|awk '{print $1}'|xargs kill"
"ps ax|grep panel|awk '{print $1}'|xargs kill"
Then start gnome by typing "gnome-session" in xterm.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Accessing sdcards:
You'll need to make two directories inside of backtrack /sdcard and /sdcard-ext to do this type:
"sudo mkdir /sdcard"
"sudo mkdir /sdcard-etc"
Once you've done this simply reboot your phone and restart BackTop.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Known issues:
ettercap causes network connectivity inside of webtop to fail.
If something does go terribly wrong you can always force quit backtop with the following command:
"sudo bash /sdcard/bt/forcekillbt"

7z issue with the bt.7z
Hum... I might be doing something wrong but I am not able to uncompress the 3 volumes posted in the links... I was able to download them all but the only one who actually I can uncompress is the first one and it generate a file bt.7z that I am also unable to uncompress... I am getting the following msg when I try to 7unzip them:
"cannot open file 'x:\xx\xx\bt.7z.002' as archive"
Should I join them all into one then use 7zip?
Forget it I just found it out by myself... is using a program to join them all into one then Unzip it.
My dream come true .............. i assume that we can run kismet and metasploit framework ?!
What kernel and rom were you able to make this run well with as i am having really bad reboots after i undock the phone from the lapdock as i am running faux123 kernel and cherry crust v3.
webtop when connected to hdmi not doing anything...
I was trying to use this backtrack distro on my AT&T Atrix and I must admit that I am a kind of noob on this ... I wasn't seeing big advantage until now that we have bt to use instead of the stock version...
I have no Lapdock so I am using Ronaldo_9 CWM version to run Webtop on HDMI in my GB 2.3.4 ( 4.5.91 from Kenneth Penn ). It was working til I followed these instructions ...
Well a little bit of what I did:
1- Downloaded the WebTopMOD from Joe Ferreira v2 to install with CWM.
2- Got also BusyBox installed through the BusyBox Installer over my /system/bin
3- Downloaed (even knowing it's not needed) the Debian disk from Joe Ferreira link (to install webtopmod).
4- Downloaded the BlackTrack 5 image from the links on the first post
5- Downloaded the BackTop.zip from the first post
6- Created the /sdcard/bt folder and put only the bt.img and forcekillbt and backtop files from Backtop.zip file onto it...
7- Plugged in my HDMI cable over my tv (yes I have no lapdock)
8- The Webtop option pop's up and when I selected it.....
Nothing happened... not even an error msg or stuff... the only thing still working is EC... but webtop none.... Does anyone of you have any clue or hint of what can I do about it?
EDIT: Got it working... it was because of the broken V2 WebtopMOD so I flashed the V1 and everything went fine.... Thank you all for not helping it made me a better researcher
I think I just wet myself I've been waiting for someone to come up with this since they started the ARM archticture and ported it to the XOOM tablet

BCM4329 supports Promiscuous Mode and Multiple Monitor mode.
It supports Packet Injection, too.
The WiFi module needs to be modified for enabling these things... I'm currently working on GenTop, but after finishing that work I can take a look at it and see if I'm skilled enough to enable it on the driver.

Backtrack5/Ubuntu v10.04 Up & Running On Tab 10.1
StatementHave this on my Samsung Galaxy S2 and working perfect so i figured i would give it a try on the Tab 10.1. There were alot of people who helped get this running for other devices i will mention them so dont worry. Alot of modifications had to be made in order to get this to run on the Tab because it was really made for a phone not a tablet so please follow all the steps cause there is certain code that i had to right to get the screen size to fit. Everything is fully functional and working. Finally i think this would be a nice addon to your Tab esp if your a big Ubuntu fan, I am currently working with other developers to see if we can update this so it has the new Ubuntu v11.10 but for now follow the steps and enjoy and if theres any questions or requests just write on the thread and PM me. ENJOY!!!

Before We StartThere are going to be 10 files attached at the bottom you need to download all 10, place them on your desktop for now i will explain what your going to do with them after. Next you need to download 7Zip heres the link http://www.7-zip.org/download.htmlOk now those 10 files waiting on your desktop extract ONLY 1! i chose to extract bt.7z.001 once you extract you will be given a .img file create a folder called bt and put all ten of the files inside bt including the .img so you now should have a folder on your desktop called bt with 11 files in it. Take this folder and put on the root of your Tab.Now there will also be another file attached called bt5_sgs2_shell_scripts_v2 take this file and put it on the root of your Tab. Reboot into recovery mode and wipe cache and davik cache and then flash that file once complete reboot your Tab.Once your rebooted use some kind of file explorer i used root explorer and check the /sdcard/bt folder for the following it should look like this when you explore it./sdcard/bt/bt/sdcard/bt/bt.img/sdcard/bt/installbt.sh/sdcard/bt/startbt/sdcard/bt/stopbtOnce your verify that the above if correct you can proceed
Instructions On Launching BTStart Terminal Emulator on your Tab and enter the following commands step by step.sucd /sdcard/btsh installbt.shstartbtbtNow your in Back Track 5 shell! You should see [email protected]:

i believe it does but im not 100% on that
I cannot get this to work. Every time I try to install the bt5_sgs2_shell_scripts or bt5_sgs2_shell_scripts_v2, it says installation aborted. Needs to be Nandroid restored otherwise it won't boot. Any ideas?
So can i use both of honeycomb and ubuntu alternatively or together? Because in screenshots i can still see honeycomb taskbar at bottom over Ubuntu.
Nice work. And how to uninstall it?
Ok for JAYDAWGX7: are you wiping cache and davik cache before flashing and is your cwm up to date? if so and still having problem try a different kernal and get back to me
Ok for PARAG31: yes you can run bolth all backtrack5/ubuntu is doing is running threw vnc you are not loosing honeycomb you still have that as a base platform backtrack/ubuntu is just running threw vnc so to answer your question this does run bolth
I try with two diferents kernels and roms first task650 in paris v5 and other with task650 new honecomb 3.2 stock and no luck to install the zip file in recovery instalation aborted allways display. please post your roms and kernels info to migrate and run this on my gt

Yep, same problem here. Any ideas? Any one else try this?
P7500 running Overcome 10.1 Rom, with Pershoot Kernel 2.6.36.4, with CWM v5.1.2.3. Yes with wipe of both cache.
EDIT:
After further investigation, the zip file only contains the files found in the bt folder. Just extract it to the /sdcard/bt dir. Assuming that it makes no other changes to system.
Got to [email protected], haven't done the rest yet! Will update post later.
EDIT:
Everything works after this.
Plus, i dont think monitor mode or injection works. Not without modified drivers (STILL HOPING ITS NOT THE CASE). Maybe usb? Hows usb hosting on this? Hope someone can answer these questioms.
I have a compatible wifi adapter, but no usb adapter for the tablet! I'll put it on my buy list.
Will this work on the 3G version also?
Edit: Awesome! It works perfect, thanks! Only remember to have busybox installed guys!
The correct resolution is 1280x752, so it is : "vncserver -geometry 1280×752"
also ur script isnt flashable. only thing in /data is busybox, just install busybox from market and change script
will work on 3g and wifi versions
very nice, also works on GTab 7310 (8.9 Wifi 3g)
heaven, thank you!
Awesome, works like a charm, and it blows everybody's mind.
I spent a little time on try to get capture mode to work, but gave up with the original network drivers.
I hoped it would be possible to use a normal usb wifi stick connected to the adapter, compile the drivers, and load them as modules, but i'm getting error messages when doing that, and that's where my knowledge of linux ends.
Anyone tried this yet? Any pointers? (currently flashing overcome 2.0, will try to post errormsg later)
Also, I read in one of the CarrierIQ threads that one of the pieces of the app actually uses libPcap to snoop on our asses. Would it be any help (or problem) that that's enabled in the parent OS?
Just one question: Can I use bluetooth keyboard/mouse with it? And will TrueCrypt run?
Hello All, I am currently in the process of finishing up my alpha release of of my webtop ROM. I currently have Maverick Ubuntu and Gnome running seamlessly (not Gnome-panel, Gnome!). I am in the process of sorting the distribution upgrade to Natty. I will update this thread so you know where I am at until the release which will also be here.
Packages upgraded: 1834
Packages left to upgrade 542
I just had 1000 package push without errors. had to divert sysctl but its all moving again. Once these are sorted I will release the alpha build.
Here is some info on the release:
Ubuntu Distribution Type- Complete
Ubuntu Version: 11.10
Working Desktop Environments: Gnome, XFDE, X11. Default is Gnome
Login/Lock Screen status: Bypassed for now
Ubuntu-Setup Status: Still using start scripts from webtop to initiate session
File Managers: Thunar and Nautilus
Web Browsers: Firefox, Chromium, and Epiphany
Tested on ROMs: Stock and Liberty 2.0
Installation type: Webtop2SD
Bluetooth: Working. New BT daemon from Natty fixed issue. Paired with my car and streamed audio. Looks good.
Sound: Not working yet from within ubuntu apps. All droid webtop apps have sound working fine. Videos playback from gallery app in full frame no issues. Im sure there is a fix for this but im waiting to finish the natty upgrades first. Prob wont make the 0.0.1 Alpha release (this release)
Optical media: Currently have an external DVD-RW connected to the lapdock and it can be mounted and unmounted successfully with a script. Right now the OS cant mount it in Nautilus. Thunar can mount it no problem but cant unmount. I just use Thunar and then unplug the drive to clear the mount. Will look for a way to automount currectly. There are permission issues with automounter. This doesnt seem to effect the sdcard storages though.
Repository Versions (source.list): 100% Natty. No Maverick or earlier source lists
Gnome Games: All work
Webtop droid status bar: On top, still functions as original
Add-Ons installed: OpenOffice, RhythmBox, Powerpoint viewer
Install method Im leaning toward: dd from the command line or possibly by script. After installing Webtop2SD and partitioning the sdcard, you will flash an image with DD which will give you exactly what Im working with. I will be posting a full tutorial on how to install.
Linux experience required: Easy install. A caveman could do it
Sdcard EXT partition size (to start) 4GB (exactly 4096MB)
Required on phone: Root, Webtop2SD, Busybox
Ok everyone, so Im rebuilding this again from scratch with all the lessons learned and it should be ready for a test release hopefully this weekend. Im still having some problems making a proper image of the webtop for restore but I will get it sorted. I had to force a downgrade of Xorg Server as it wont accept our graphics drivers (Major version 8). It expects drivers with major version 10 which are not out yet. The latest Ive found are 1.7.X (Major version 8). Its coming along though. I am working on releasing a less bloated version and you guys can add apps that you want later on.
Will this replace the existing Webtop? My guess is yes, but stranger things ahve happened....
This will leave the stock webtop untouched. It will install to the sdcard so as far as stock webtop files, they will be unmodified. When you boot into webtop though, you will run this one instead of the original. Thats what the Webtop2SD app does. This is of course not my app but I will provide links and instructions on how to use this with my webtop Roms. Hope that makes sense. In other words this shouldnt effect upgrade files passing verification on WebTop. The Webtop2SD app does modify a few system files so system would be changed that way, but system alterations will have happened anyway if you're rooted...
Sounds awesome! I can't wait to try it out.

You've made a believer out of me - I'd love to try it as soon as you have an alpha ready - even partially ready lol.
Only method I have of WepTop though is via an HDMI cable to a 42" TV - that OK?
Sound awesome

I am also very interested in unlocking the full penitential of this phone but I just don't have enough language skills to do this on my own. So thanks for putting in the work for those of use who are less than native speakers!
Let me know when you are ready for some testers.... I have the Bionic running Liberty 3 with webtop2sd.
I am really dieing to get more functionality out of the webtop....
Guy
Extremely excited for this release!
any update greek35t?
I can't wait to try this.
Is this still being worked on?
I assume this is either abandoned or forgotten...
i think so too.

What is the status of this killer project?
I will be stuck with my bionic for over a year, so, since it seems this project was dropped, is there a way to get instructions and anything else so i can do what you did on mine?i don't care if it has flaws.
I'm using eclipse 2.2 and is the only way i got webtop2sd to work.
Thanks in advance.

I thinks its dead, and for a simple reason niw it is likely it wont be picked back up with ics right around the corner they (motorola) has decided to do away with the nornal means of webtop, it is now webtop 3.0 beta which in a nut shell is simple tablet interface with mouse and keybaord,
Youtube ravr webtop 3.0 beta and u can see what they did with it n the ravr
It looks like the webtop 3.0 is just a mirror of the regular android os spread out to tablet mode. Its faster and angry birds does look cool but I think I would rather have webuntu linux even if its not super fast. If I am right that its mirroring mode maybe they deactivate the old webtop that ran on bionic on the sep rom. Then maybe someone can make a hack to run the old webtop and we can choose between tablet 3.0 or a sudo linux os.
