Universal Raindrop Fix - Atrix 4G General

We all know that the Atrix has a very annoying problem, where the multitouch will randomly 'mess up' after 15 seconds. This was implemented to stop raindrops from selecting random stuff when it was raining. It was a driver used in the Motorola Defy as it was waterproof and was ported over to the Atrix. However, as the Atrix wasn't waterproof, it created annoying problems, especially when gaming.
Here's a video of the problem:
Link.
You can try it yourself, it's very annoying.
But there's finally a fix!
Huge thanks to nok07635 who came up with the tweak!
Simply flash the attached .zip from recovery and voila!
The .zip should work with any ROM's, but hasn't been tested on all ROM's. It works on Neutrino as it's been tested, but I don't see why it shouldn't work on other Blur based ROM's as well.
Enjoy!

Thanks dude working good on MIUI alpha4

I'm sorry, but doesn't seem clear if this is OK for CM7 or if it is just Blur ROMS universal

Well, the OP made the zip for the Neutrino ROM which is CM7 and someone has posted that they got it working on a stock ROM

It should work on ANY ROM, CM7 or Blur. In OP, I just mentioned that it hasn't been tested for Blur ROM's yet, but I would be genuinely surprised if it didn't work.
Both CM7 and Blur ROM's have the same 'touchpad' files, so it should work for both.

Just tried on Wet Dream 1.4.2. Worked just fine.

Thanks a lot .
Worked perfectly in CM7 Ba2tF. Thanks a lot ^^.

i flashed this on neutrino 2.1p and my phone doesnt boot past the boot animation. what do.

Worked perfectly! Thank you very much! Feels like I have a completely new phone that is awesome for gaming now! Thank God for XDA devs because Motorolla devs are dumb and clueless!

Never expected to see a fix for this! Epic job nok07635
good to see turl has already added this to the dev team repo

You have to install MIUI! {Short video}

Hello
I recently switched form cm7 to miui and i gotta say im impressed it is so smooth and beautiful!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_bBYAGYFls
Thanks s15274n!!!
i need 2 questions answered before is switch..
1) How's battery life so far?
2) what DOESN'T work...
bcz cm7 is pissing me off with me getting 7 hours of battery.
P.S. can i use launcherpro or something like that instead of the launcher you have there?
and there's a OFFICIAL miui comming too
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1013370
Battery life is like a bit better than cm7 about 3 more hours.
Everything that doesn't work in cm7
It has been supported officially already where have you been lol
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Yeah i trust ya, i just flashed MIUI preview
and the MIUI preview is not "official"
If you go to the link i sent you to, then it leads to the miui forum...
they say their making a 100% official for t959.
the miui we're using right now is a port from the miui9000 forum, thats why not everything works
OOOPs just saw the "based on i9000 miui" and yes it is now since it's on their list of supported devices! Awesome! maybe we wont have to flash using these complicated steps?
yeah we won't currently the dev who ported it removed the kernel that comes with it when you flash it and thats why he told us to flash the cm7 kernel... so it'd work with 2.3.3
Thanks for the suggestion, i love it so far. restoring apps.
Any tips since this is my first time using it? any tips to make it faster? (is it even possible? lol its so fast) or any UI tweaks etc? im not used to the new settings app unfortunately lol.
Mmm I ocd it to 1.3 and used automem killer to strict. It is a little confusing lol xD

Have you looked into the leaked sensation ics builds?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
The Sensation doesn't have a CDMA/LTE combo radio like ours so unfortunately it's not very useful for what we need to get fixed but hopefully we will get our own ICS leak soon or the developers will figure out ril on their own.
Very cool, subscribed for future updates!
This by far the cleanest looking ROM. I am addicted to flashing. I cant seem to find my driver. If this gets fully developed. Which I pray it does, then without a doubt, this WILL be the last ROM I will ever flash. keep up the awesome work!
why would anybody want to load this if its still in the the alpha 4 stages and no data is working? I rather install this if data is working but not mms or camera, but thats the reason to have a phone is to be able to call.
I would love to see this out of alpha and into beta 1 or beta 2 etc.

May I ask why you want to run such a outdated rom?

No problem, hope it works for you. Personally, I'd run a GB+ ROM at this point, but to each their own. I'm on ICS AOKP build 25 myself, for today anyways. Tomorrow it could be the next newest thing, or back to CM7, or a GB TW ROM. The nice thing with the TW based builds such as ComRom/Superclean is that they just work, unlike a lot of the AOSP builds that all have their own quirks.

I hear that. I travel fairly regularly for work as well. I'll normally run my flavor of the week, just to see how it holds up. If it's not solid and reliable, then I'll roll back to something that is. A reliable GPS is a must, as most of the places I travel to are new to me. I'm anxious to see how this latest ICS build holds up on my next trip.

Nope, no themes, sorry. The CM7 I've been using is makelegs' build since the official nightlies shut down. For CM9, it's been JT & sbrissen's build. I haven't tried the latest version there yet though, so I can't comment on it. The ricks port of AOPK 25 has been running well for me. I had the non-working wifi in build 22, but it seems solved in build 25.

After our conversation about ComRom I decided to give AOKP another whirl and I must say I'm impressed.My last attempt at running it was full of reboots and data drops but it must have been a bad download because it ran smooth all night.In any event I switched back to ComRom this morning with Detox theme.Once again,I appreciate all your time and effort.

Exactly. Once again, NOBODY can tell you what the best rom for you is. Everyone has their own wants/needs, and not to mention the same rom will not run the same on every single device. Try a few roms, and find one you like, simple as that.
I use the Miks rom and it run flawlessly
I've been running nitrous for awhile now. The dev is extremely good at taking requests and keeping everyone updated on his progress.
Thanks a lot for the suggestions. I tried nitrous but the battery life blew dogs. I'm in SOS 1.9 ics I love ics are there any other good ics roms out there.

Anything MIUI has been awesome for me...So customization & runs fast, everything works besides 4g but I cant get 4g in this area anyways...Plus the themes change up the look of your phone alot!! BTW Why is ICS Muiu running Mason kernel the best? Does GPS camera video ect work?? How do I get video or movies from my phone to work on my TV thru QQ player?

I am an OG Epic user, and the biggest (only?) complaint I had and have seen with our ICS ports is that the lack of battery life renders the phone unuseable. Is the same the case with the Evo? I see a lot of ICS roms and folks here seem to like it, but I've flashed the Evo's on my account with some roms lately that score unbelievable battery life so I'm hesitant to change.

Nice job! I know that Liquid/Jester/Twisted build has a lot of the same mods as CM9 all of that source is on GitHub. I kinda would be interested to see someone work on CM10 as opposed to CM9 since we have already come so far on ICS and now are behind two versions 4.1 and 4.2. Things will work better and be easier if and when the source from HTC drops if they ever even actually release the official ICS update. Well keep up the good work anyways. EDIT: oh you said you used the github didn't see that sorry anyways carry on.
Would definitely love to see a CM10, or CM11 base.. but.. again.. Thunderbolts aren't gonna be worked on much longer I feel.
