Rom Manager- Now supporting Atrix 4G!

Hey guys, just passing along good news!! Seems Koush as added our Atrix into Rom Manager!! Now recovery can be flashed with ease.
look at the bottom addition!!
http://www.koushikdutta.com/2010/02/clockwork-recovery-image.html

So should this version solve the issues we have when we do a Nandroid recovery in the current CWM build for the atrix?

One step forward!

Ha! I literally just installed it for the fixed permissions feature and then just stumbled into this thread. Glorious day.
Still gonna wait for the atrix community to support this version of CWM first before I flash this recovery.

I would assume so since we now have official support! Not sure how this recovery differs from Tenfars' but its all good! I have not tried it yet, since I'm waiting for my replacement atrix to arrive.

So if we flash that img via fastboot will it just install over the one I have?

sweet thanks for the info!!

yay! I'm gonna wait til probably tomorrow for Rom manager update in the market (hopefully) to flash it.

Sweet flashed the new recovery! Looks good so far

Doesn't have sdcard-ext in cwm recovery.

Super! I just installed look great!

So if we install it...does it overwrite what is on my phone? Im currently running gingerblur v4.5.

Wut?!
Otherwise good news

Thanks for the good news!

It does not have support for the external sd card. Only recognizes the internal one. I don't recommend the install. Ill update when it adds support. I installed it through rom manager

Yes. Someone must inform them..
External sd, is refferenced as sd-ext, instead of sdcard-ext like the atrix.
The backups are saved in internal.
A choice where to save it, would be nice.

Has anyone that has tried this emailed the author about the external card? That's a biggie, for us.

[Q] paranoid note user wanting to install paranoid android

if you read my last threads you will know i mashed my other note to pieces....
on my desire i would flash roms 3 each week without messing the phone up, so after messing up my note through formatting through cwm while on ics i am a little/lot scared about doing it again..
so i want a little help if you guys would be so kind :laugh:
i dont have the new phone with me right now, but this time i am going to learn how NOT to brake the phone before i start playing with it.
so could you please walk me through this, explain to me as you would explain to a child LOL
so as i understand it, i need to keep to gingerbread then root it, go into recovery and flash the rom from there? do i use the normal phone recovery to do this or do i have to install cwm?
i am a little worried about using cwm again tbh, or can i use mobile odin?
i want to know the easiest way, the most fool proof....
damn i was never this worried with my desire.
your probably thinking "if you are so scared then why bother" right? its just the phone is so damn laggy, even compared to my desire which was built by cave men
cheers for the help guys, asuming i get some ofcourse :fingers-crossed:

Start from a gingerbread rom, then fully root it and install clockworkmod, next boot into recovery(volume up+power+home button together). First flash paranoid android rom then flash gapps, lastly wipe data, cache partition and dalvik cache. Reboot and enjoy

Yes, you can flash from one of the supposedly known safe ics kernels to speed the process up BUT if you want to be 100% safe in flashing to any cm9, start with a gingerbread rom.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA Premium HD app

Cool thanks, I will just do that when the time comes then, for some reason this phone is no where near as laggy as the last one, and I have all my apps I had on the other device plus more....

So is it still okay to root through cwm and then use mobile odin? Are there any decent roms out yet that have decent s pen usage?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2

I also just received my note from samsung after bricking it with CWM. I am so afraid I might brick it again trying to install paranoid android since I have to wait nearly a month to have my phone back in case anything happen.
Just one question, as long as I'm on paranoid android, can I just format or factory reset my phone through settings or recovery or cwm safely? Thanks a lot.

If you want to install paranoid, its cm based which means no touchwizz apps will work on it as they need the touchwizz framework. That being said, s pen still works fine and there are plenty of alternatives to the s apps (papyrus, memo etc). Also I've read that one of the devs is working on getting the s apps onto cm9 somehow, but not sure who or how its going. Also the cm9 kernel included for the rom is safe from the superbrick bug as its has the cap wlerase command disabled.
PA has a slightly different installation to other roms. I would highly recommend first installing stock rootable gb, root it and install cwm. Once that's in place perform factory reset.
Then download paranoid and g apps and copy them to external SD card.
Then FROM CWM recovery, you flash pa first by "installing zip from SD card", then do the same for g apps straight afterwards.
If you have any fc's or issues, enter back into cwm recovery and wipe cache and dalvik.
Boom, ready to go for full on paranoia
Its a truly great rom, very customisable and as ics should be.

Thanks ST, so am I right in thinking if I go the cm route then I don't have to flash the kernel first. It will do it for me? So all I need to do is root it and get a safe kernel?
Is there a free mobile Odin app, I looked on the market but there is only the pro version...

The safe kernel is included in the pa rom, cm9 kernel. So long as you flash it from cwm in gb you're fine it installs it automatically.
Think mobile Odin is only a paid for app... well worth it though. Check the forum, chainfire usually releases free versions to xda community.

If you asked me. I like the stock firmware not cm9 paranoid. Because you will lose your S-Memo, S-Note and S-Planner and also your myfiles and also the MHL. All of this features are important for me. Paranoid is cool firmware but you will loose this apps...

Because I use Touch recovery..it will not work on the other recoveries...
flash the recovery via Odin and Flash the ROM..
then you can flash back the other recovery on the top of it to have your backups..
[Edit] try it on your current recovery once..I think it will work as it uses Edify scripts..do let me know so that I can edit the OP

Deleting roms

Once you download and flash as rom, can you delete the file from your sd card?

Not a good idea, what happens if something goes wrong and you need to reflash? Better keep it handy.

I always keep my current ROM, current kernel and stock kernel available to flash in case i run into issues caused by tweaking.

That is what nandroid backups are for. Delete em.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda premium

Nandroid backups aren't always reliable. If you don't want a rom on your phone then keeping it on your pc is a good idea.

That's when you power the phone off, download the ROM on PC and transfer it to a MicroSD card. Better to keep the .zip on the phone rather than carry a laptop around though. Lol.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app

I keep several ROMs and kernels on my sd card in case something goes haywire. Which has happened and I couldn't reflash the same ROM or my Nandroid, and could only flash a backup ROM I kept on my sd. I would have been screwed because I was using gps to get to a work site and wouldn't have known where to go. And couldn't have called anyone to find out since my phone wouldn't boot. From then on I have at least 2-3 ROMs and kernels etc.

Twrp rom backup Q

I use Twrp and I have 2 back ups so far. One being the stock TW rom and another being my customized debloated TW rom. I went to create a back up and it failed due to lack of space. I have it set to back up to the 16gb SD card which has plenty of space but then I saw it was going to back up the data(okay that's fine) but it states theres 18635mb of data. Where is all that data!? And where can I remove whatever is taking up that much space. I'm assuming it's from my 2 backups but I can't seem to find it (due to I swear they are on the SD card already) so I'm confused to how it's trying to backup that much data . Thanks in advance!
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app

Get away from twrp its garbage for this device. I've always loved twrp on other devices but not this one. My advice would be restore you stock stable ROM. Format your internal & external SD card. Flash cwm touch 6.2 or philz custom cwm . backup with cwm . then that should fix your issues. Make sure your on the stock ROM before deleting any files though.

I'm confused when you say format the internal and external SD. Wouldn't that delete everything off of both? Not sure if maybe I misunderstand what it means to format

Backup and restore works as you would expect it to work fast. Gonna try and see if the format data still makes data unmountable. As it did before . Gonna wait till I get home near PC with Odin first just in case .

Well back up and restore work awesome for me, so glad to have that team win screen go away after a couple seconds! Haven't formatted data once yet, I'm glad I haven't, all my old back ups are on my PC

Just got back up and running after formatting data and having to odin back shhheessshhh. Damn I wish they would get this running correctly. To do a clean wipe and install in my book is formatting data. Doing even with newest 2.6.1.0 bonks data partion. Thank god cwm touch is stable ( slow as molases to back up and restore) but stable.
