Epinter's CM10 on ICS + JB (Lateral Flash from RAZRHD ROM) - Motorola Atrix HD

I was simply curious and discovered that this RAZR HD ROM works (almost perfectly!) on my AHD running ICS. I assume this should fully work for JB, because it's made for that kernel. So if you're on JB, please try it and let us know.

Developers/Coders: How do we get the sensors working on ICS?? I've tried like mad to replace with stock-ics drivers, but I really don't know what I'm doing
Enjoy the pull-down toggles & customizable soft-keys!!
[edit: attached my screenshots; everything seems to work on ICS except the sensors & gps]

no go on JB 4.1.1, stuck in boot animation for 10mins twice.

What do you mean by almost perfectly... what was and was not working? Im still running on ICS and would love to get cm10 on my device.

JB 4.1.1 it boots for me but I get Encryption Unsuccessful. No go.

I can get the JB rom to boot, but i get a message about phone not successfully encrypted and requires a reset, wiping data now to see if it will work.

Can you try deleting slot1 from Boot Options and creating a new one from scratch, wipe, then re-flash (and cross your fingers).

Is this the error message you guys are talking about? Also are you flashing to a freshly wiped (cache, dalvik, sys, factory data) slot or over an existing rom (i.e. dirty and not recommended)?

If that's the bug then there is a fix for it, but I didn't encounter that at all on ics.

Clean flash. I have already seen that guide but we don't have partitioning in SS.

Damn this encryption bug. I did not see that coming due to simply being on JB.
I saw another thread say that removing the microsd and rebooting a couple of times might get you past the error message. This isn't ideal and reinserting would probably bring it back, but if it works we could then determine if all the sensors work on JB.

Nothing works on my side either I tried reboots w/o SD and tried booting off another ROM and then installing no-go

Yeah that solution seems impractical. I think a simpler solution would be to work around the internal "sdcard." I'd remove anything that involves mounting/reading that area (/data/media) and see if it boots up then. I took a look at Batakang's init files and I noticed that his omit the /storage lines that this CM10 includes.
But my first priorities are these two cpa exams on the 14th and 28th. I've been wasting too much time on this new phone :/

This boots up just fine. The ROM creator himself says it can be flashed with Safestrap: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1993888
The issue is getting past the "Encryption Unsuccessful" message for those on JB. From what I've read it's because the internal sdcard cannot fully read. (Maybe a factory reset & SD wipe via stock would help by erasing any encrypted data?)

No. Its because we use a bootstrap recovery. I don't think its SS compatible because the Encryption Unsuccessful error only happens because of the incompatibility.

Safestrap & stock ROM issues?

While I'm thinking about it, I wanted to ask a question. I had to revert back to the stock ROM, and went to re-add root and Safestrap 2.10. All went well with the install, but when I went to enable the Safe System, and I rebooted, the phone did the POST (Motorola symbol), got to the SafeStrap splash, then the screen went blank. None of the keys would do anything, and the only way I could make anything happen, was to pull the battery. I had to go back into Safestrap, and disable it again. Anyone else experience this?

The first time you enable safe mode you need to flash a rom. You tried to boot... Nothing, thus the black screen

The kexec ICS from 8/6 is surprising stable for me. I've been running it for nearly a week and while I've had some reboots and a couple of freezes that required a battery pull, it's run better than I expected.
I have had the problem with leaving bluetooth on and answering a call without a headset - no audio until BT turned off.
Also, as advertised, no camera. Another note, the car dock USB audio doesn't work.
I've even scripted a mount to keep the Play Music directory on the external SD card and mass storage mount on the computer works better than stock with the mount in place. Internal sd doesn't mount though.

[ROM][FRUITCAKE] en.UK Stock 2.3.4 ROOTED - Made With ROM Factory

It appears that the package is broken. For the time being I have no way of remaking it. I hopefully soon will be able to make it again.
The other day I managed to get my hands on a UK ATRIX that was still running the official 2.3.4 rom (T-Mobile I think) so I stuck ROM Factory on it and made a fruitcake of it for your enjoyment.
As always with custom ROMs I am not responsible for anything you do to your device, you don't have to flash this if you don't want to!.
Also this is the first time I have used Rom Factory to do anything and I am completely unable to test it as the phone I made it from has an locked bootloader (does this matter?) so again flash with caution.
Features:
Rooted
No Webtop (Sorry )
Up to date Apps including super user

Yup. It is exactly that. It has no unique features other than the fact that it is the stock UK ROM that went missing at the same time as all of the file sharing websites in the form of a fruitcake.
Has anyone tried it to see if it works? I still have to phone (locked bootloader & It's not mine) I made it from (though not for much longer) and can have another go!
Thanks, I'll try it when I get back home.

Tried this yesterday. Had CM7 latest nightly running. Did a full wipe and clean install. But unfortunately, it kept booting into CM7 (not the one I had before flashing). I anyways tried logging into my Google account and the setup wizard force closed every time I tried. Had to revert to my previous setup
Not sure if I did anything wrong, I know the usual drill of installing custom ROMs.
Did anyone else give a try?

Very odd issue... Is it because the device I made it from has a locked bootloader? You say that the rom didn't flash (or did but not properly) what did the install script in CWM say?
Sorry I don't have the device any longer so I won't be able to do anything with re making the fruitcake :crying: as I have had to give it back.
PS I have sent you a PM with the original rom link in it, may be that the one on the mirror is corrupted.

The script said that the flash was successful. Also it said that I should not forget to wipe cache and data, which I did anyways. No errors in the install script.
Not sure if the zip had the original ROM, coz it was booting into CM7, which is obviously not what you are trying to do. I did a full wipe, 3 times, so I guess there is no possibility for it to boot into my previous installation of CM7 nightly.
I saw your PM. Thanks. I will try today if I get some time off work and let you know.

The zip is 200MB this would make you think that it includes the stuff. I have just extracted it an the .zip only contains the edify script for installing the rom nothing else. Derp.

Downloading Now. I just hope it's for the rooted .621 Non-Milestone hack. The Milestone hack (for root) is .604.
Sent from my DROIDX using xda premium
Update:
First I tried it without gapps. Everything booted fine, but there was no market nor would accounts/ sync let me add Google account.
So, I rebooted into recovery, which worked fine, and flashed gapps.
This time on boot, I actually got the Droid X welcome screen, was able to put in Google info, and market initiator ran and updated.
After that everything worked fine.
Tested Bluetooth, Messages, Gps and Calls. Didn't get chance to try Wifi yet, but I'm sure it works since everything-else does.
The only thing that Would be better is an updated Superuser. The 1 included will NOT update SU Binary. I think it's the old edify binary. Even by updating Superuser in the market WON'T help. Although an easy fix is to get RootUninstaller and uninstall Rom Superuser, then download new 1 from the market and install.
Keep up the hard work. Nice Rom.
Finally, does this works for any other gb kernel besides .621?
Anybody please tell us!
Nope, but maybe yes

No prob Kiladar. I think if someone is going to comment on someones work, they should at least review it and be as informative as possible. It makes it easier
on the devs to look at potential probs/fixes too.
Oh yea, I also got to looking into your system/app folder in your zip. The vending.apk is Not in there, which i would say is why I had to flash the gapps. Just wanted you to know.
Also there is no "boot.img" (which is kernel right?) in the new dwnload.
Right, I will update OP saying to flash gapps rather then say not needed

I had it working on mine but my .605 was the .621/.605 deodexed hacked version cause I was on the .621 before I did the work around on the magic 5 route, originally I did the .604 work around but it should work on the .605 stock rooted, but then again I was also running the kernel for the .621 sooooo if the kernel is the key for running it maybe you cant.
Try another download, maybe you did get a bad DL

Luckily my DX is no longer activated and just keeps me from killing my SGS3 with flashes.:silly:

I hear ya, I had the same prob with sd card so i formatted mine as well, problem was still there though. whenever i tried to install a rom from sd card via rom manager the problem was i kept getting the message saying waiting for sd cart to mount then it would say error bla bla bla sending log file to cwm ect ect ect.... i dont know exactally how i fixed that, all i know is i installed another rom, like cm7 or cm9 for instance and after that whenever i went to back up rom it worked fine ever since.... maybe something flashes over correcting the sd card problem when you install a rom... I know rom manager checks to verify the marker on sd card and thats what your problem is I believe.
Try doing this, try installing a rom cm7/cm9 without making a backup (i know you could lose everything if it fails but its the only way i know that fixed mine) after you have installed cm7/9 go to rom manager and hit the Backup Current Rom it should reboot you to cwm recovery and make an auto backup, if it does this without throwing up the waiting for sd card to mount error stuff and it runs the backup program and then reboots you it should fix your sd card problems.....

Now when I download and try to run the viper 1.1.0 zip, it does the install and starts up shows my walpaper and icons appropriately, then crashes and constant reboots to the same point.

Then reflash the Rom.

I did the same thing as you. Mine got caught in a bootloop, I couldn't get the damn thing to force restart either. The bottom home & back key just kept flashing no matter how long I held it. I had to wait forever for the battery to die. I think something might be wrong with the restart fail safe HTC built in. So I relocked it, flashed back to stock, go to sprint store of course it reboots perfect every time. The people at the store are morons I hate going there. The guy says to me you just hold it down and the restart menu will come up. I'm like if the phone is frozen that doesn't work. None the less I don't expect them to replace something that is working. So I re-unlocked, cleared everything and installed latest build fresh works great haven't had any issue. I didn't back up either so I had to re set everything up which takes forever. I'm not a fan of restoring backups anyway as it can cause issues. I will be doing a nandroid next time and be more careful with dirty flashing. I always dirty flashed on MeanBean on my LTE without issues and Mike made it very clear when dirty update was not advised. In my opinion they shouldn't release a major update that will bootloop a phone over goo manger. It's still my fault but I didn't think twice about it when I tried to update viper. It still pisses me off that I have to fight with it to get the phone to reboot, the entire point of a fail safe is incase something goes wrong. It's the first time I have ever bootlooped a phone.
Do NOT do this. It will wipe everything including your internal SD card

I do this everytime I flash a new Rom and it doesn't wipe my internal SD...
Thanks all, I am just where I was. so many opinions and would like to have a concensus.
It won't wipe internal unless you specifically check it in advanced. Never wipe internal, but davlic, cache, data and system are fine and constitutes a full wipe..you should always wipe that way when trying different roms or going to a new base. Or use a superwipe script to make things easier.

Thanks to all.
same problem
ive had the same problem, i actually had to use the ruu to get back to stock, unlocked it again s-off rooted and no matter what i do everytime i install any custom rom it goes into bootloop. ive tried every rom on here i cant even get viperrom to fully boot up. looking thru all the forums nobody has a clear answer as to why this is happening.
im stuck in boot loop after the viper rom and i just got it yesterday .. i dont know what to do at this point . when it does boot it ask me for the wifi login and fails says poor connection when its right next to me
Boot Loop
I'm also stuck in boot loop. I've done research and tried all kinds of stuff with no luck. This is what I get...
Phone boots
I get the notification bar and a black screen
Can't do anything with that.
After about a minute, it reboots.
Can anyone help with this? I have the 1.31 version. Clearing cache/data/delvik does nothing for me.
Can someone help me get it back to stock, or at least usable?
Thanks in advance.

Are you wiping before you flash a new rom?

Phone shuts down after reboot

I have been experiencing this for a while: after rebooting my phone, the exact momment it finishes booting up, it starts shutting down, no matter what custom ROM I have flashed, so it makes me believe it's not ROM related, but related to the bootloader or something like that. after banging my head against the wall for so long I couldn't find any solution, so I'd like to know what's your opinion about it.
Edit: forgot to mention I've tried all the routine methods, cleaning dalvik/cache, wiping system, data and even internal storage without any success, that's why I believe it is bootloader related, but I'm no expert so... If this issue has been addressed here please show me where as I've become empty handed

i have seen this happening only when the custom kernel is not compatible with the rom installed. the bootloader has nothing to do. we just unlock it to install a different recovery image that help us install any kernel and any rom
I'm using the CM10.1.3 right now with its stock kernel and it still happens... It annoys me so freaking much

Maybe you should reflash the .kdz file to be completely stock. If this problem still occurs, it's definitely nor ROM related.

....... the .kdz is used to flash stock LG's rom. when he sais stock kernel with cm 10.1.3 , he means , the cyanogenmod 10.1.3 as it is.
