**DOES NOT WORK ON 10.1 BASED ROMS**
Alright guys here it is, a flash-able zip that you can flash in recovery to get wifi and vibration working on i717 ROMS
while in recovery before you flash the WiFi.zip file make sure you MOUNT system and then install. Once the WiFi.zip is flashed UNMOUNT system and reboot. Flash Wifi fix.zip last after you have already flashed the rom, gapps, radio ect... This fix should work for all Jelly Bean roms
### For this step i would use the computer. After downloading the ROM your going to flash, use 7zip file manager, right click on the downloaded rom zip move down to 7zip and open archive. delete boot.img and replace with the boot.img that is attached below. Close 7zip and move ROM to your sd card.
Also make sure you flash TeamWin Recovery for the sgh-i717 If you try flashing with TeamWin for our device it does not allow it because of the device name in build prop...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
steps that i have taken:
Flash openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.1 sgh-i717 then reboot to recovery before starting on the steps below.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.wipe factory data reset
2.wipe system
3.flash darkside superwipe EXT4. (Thanks to TDJ for this wipe script)
4.flash i717 jelly bean rom of choice
5.flash GAPPS
6.flash T-Mobile radio (found over in the goodies thread)
7.flash Wifi fix.zip (DONT FORGET TO MOUNT SYSTEM BEFORE FLASHING THIS) other wise it will not work.
8.wipe cache and dalvik cache
9.Reboot- wifi and vibration should be fixed --
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks for your work, looking forwards to trying the att roms.

I'll be testing this after I get out of work. Thank you for looking in to this.

No problem, if you guys have any issues pm me. Hopefully the instructions are clear enough to understand lol!
Also I can confirm this works for the following ROMs, "pacman all in one (I'm using that one currently) Aocp, and paranoid. So anything jelly bean should work.
I was trying to make a flash-able boot.img to make things easier but for some reason it would not work. The ROM will only boot when boot.IMG is manually inserted. Not sure why that is.

I can confirm it works, latest PA and it's probably a placebo effect but things are much smoother and the hspa+ speed seems more solid and stable now. I'll give some other roms a try, if they ever want to download.

Cool glad it worked for someone else.
I've been having issues downloading from xda also, I was also having trouble uploading the files to attach here. They kept timing out.

Should be interesting when the 717 gets the 4.2 bump for samsung, and we get left behind by tmoible. I think butter is still incomplete in 4.1.2 right?
I'm having trouble getting any of the att roms to boot, mind sharing some of your modified roms?
Edit: got it...thx.

Are you pulling the boot.IMG file and replacing it with the one in the op?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
got it working...maybe a bad download.
Which ROMs have you guys been trying? Find any your sticking with for a bit?

I've only tried the latest pa. Everything else I can't seem to download.

Also I think this is across the board but do you guys have image/video quality issues? Like if i watch a video in youtube i get a lot of off colors(blacks not actually black, blues look a little greyish, ect.) Even my wallpaper, 99% of images look terrible.
I've tried PAC man and now I'm on AOCP both image quality was fine.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Hmm i'll have to look in to the image quality thing, alot of things just look terrible.
How about slimbean? Anyne have any luck with that? I just keep getting a failed error.
I haven't noticed bad image quality either, Everything looks fine here. I really like aocp, but I like how paranoid supports spen, although GMD spen control in the play store takes care of that!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
Will this work on any TW roms? Or is there an alternate fix for those?
Slimbean runs well. No crashes. Though I did notice my connection is a bit slow

For tw ROMs the only thing you should have to do is pull the boot.img and replace with one from a T-Mobile tw ROM.

I want to make sure I understand this correctly. If I want to flash a TW Rom I need to get the boot.img from an exsiting TW Rom or do I use the one provided in the OP? Also would it matter if the boot.img comes from an older version TW Rom?
CM10.1 Lag Fix version 2
The first version by me is baked into cm10.1 by epinter already, this is the new one.
This update is made by me and will be baked into cm10.1 (epinter) as soon as he diffs it.
This build prop works okay*for me, but not 100%!
Instructions: To apply the tweaks and scripts to CM/PAC/CARBON etc...
(1. Download the attached file below.
(2. Flash it in Clockworkmod recovery.
(3. Enjoy.
What does this do? Enable both cores on high, free a tad more ram and graphics tweaks through properties and init.d...
VERY Close to fixing 100% of the problem. But I cant get my other source to work.
Download - Codex01-CM10.1PreformanceEnhancements-3.0.1.zip
so does battery life take a hit with both cores enabled?
No, I included more than performance there's now power saving, connection, and media init.d scripts and props.
Sent from my MB886 using xda app-developers app
Thanks thats good to know about to flash now.
Update: I definitely see a performance difference.
I tried it in PAC rom and its running smooth now. I notice that after i flash this, i can't proceed to CMW recovery. Anyone has the same problem? Im planning to back up this.thanks

Is there a way i can recover CMW?

This does make everything a bit smoother. Animation is still kinda herky-jerky but for a ROM that's been around for less than a week developed by a guy who doesn't even own one (epinter says he doesn't have an MB886 available to him), this is super impressive.
Try flashing it again @ryuben2k. What version and which model, from what I hear, the Photon 4G LTE is not a good choice of recovery. Make sure you flash the Razr HD recovery. If all goes well with the millions of init.d scripts I'm writing I'll have version 3 by tomorrow.
Is this specifically for cm10.1 or will it work for PAC rom?
Sent from my MB886 using xda app-developers app
Yes, because PAC is a port into our cm10.1 sources. @worlddominatiin
Appreciate the work your doing looking forward to v3
Sent from my MB886 using xda premium
@Swiftb12305 I'll have it up tonight for sure, something came up and I didn't feel like doing anything.
thanks! im waiting for the v3 too!
Okay might be a while because my Google site page for this got reformatted, and I'm trying to get some other stuff done, this may lead to the early to late am maybe even pm. Because of scripts for not only cm, PAC, and AOKP... But now root box too.... Hope you guys understand.
Sent from my MB886 using xda app-developers app
So later this night or tomorrow night?
No problem... I might be awake to try this out still...
I don't see any reason to not be patient...
No problem btw what will v3 include?
Sorry for my absence and delay of development, it was due to a family emergency. I'm not home right now, I'm using mobile hotspot while I'm in Daytona for a while. Hopefully I can get this project up. Please be patient while I'm syncing my sources now on my laptop.
To answer your question on what this update will contain: It will contain additional scripts in init.d, as well as a new sysctl script.
OP UPDATE: New Beta is up, not a whole lot of changes till tonight.
Sweet!
Can't wait til it's... Tonight...
For a second there, I was about to ask what's new with this upcoming version... That would have been pretty stupid...
Between our device, and the HTC one X's stock, what are the kernel differences? I'm attempting to port over sense 4.1.1 stock and I only get a reaction out of a 4.1.2 stock kernel(Mexican retail).
Also, is there anyone who could assist with updater scripts? I'm stuck adb pushing through recovery right now and it's very unreliable.
Update: 4.1.1 AT&T stock kernel didn't even get a boot loop. It seems the 4.1.2 retail has some of the needed components but not all of them. Does anyone have any opinions? I cannot get to the point in which I can obtain a logcat. Things would probably get much simpler once I can get logcats.
Sent from my MB886 using xda premium
I dont think you can port the kernel. People usually port SYS. Kernel is device specific. So you take our kernel and get Sys from one x, fiddle with them to boot...
You can port kernel too, but need to decompile it and replace some scripts in ramdisk.... Search in android general section, you may get some tutorials....

I've had a look around online for am easy way to get the tablet UI on my device without modifying the DPI but can't seem to find anything. I want to keep my ROM (sentinel ROM) so am after a flashable .zip or any other simple way to gain this. Does anyone know how I can?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Not extremely simple but also not too difficult, if it works...
You can try the Xposed framework and the Xposed tabletUI module. Both available here at XDA. Warning it didn't work for me on stock ROM.
There's also a flashable zip to enable it for the stock ROM over in the Nexus 7 applications subforum. I know it says it will work on other ROMs but I don't remember if CM was one mentioned. That one did work for me with the stock ROM.

Credit and Thanks
This is Android 4.4 KitKat for the MB886 Atrix HD. These are built from @dhacker, @epinter, and the rest of the razrqcom dev team's sources. All credit goes to them, I'm simply compiling the rom for the Atrix HD and sharing it with everybody else.
Warning
Before you go flashing this, be aware that it should be considered early alpha and things might not fully work. If you flash this and your phone dies, catches fire, or robs old ladies, it's on you and you've been warned.
There's also an issue with our Device Family in general where some phones just can't flash 4.4 or run it. If you're one of the unlucky one, pray that @Hashcode and @dhacker figure it out.
Info
Credits and warning out of the way, if you have a successful flash the rom works quite well and seems to be pretty stable, though I haven't done that much yet. Be aware that this doesn't have root by default, so you'll want to flash a zip to root as well.
What your're here for
Latest Deodexed Rom
Latest Odexed Rom
KitKat Rom Folder
Gapps
Odexed Gapps
Root
The gapps are PA Gapps and the root is Super SU. Credits to the PA Team and Chainfire for them.
How to enable ART
Install Odexed 4.4 and Odexed Gapps -- This is a requirement and ART only works on ODEXED ROMS....DO NOT PROCEED WITH DEODEXED
On first boot, skip entering Google username and password
Instead, go to Settings>About Phone, scroll to the bottom, and tap Build Number 7 times to enable Developer Options
Go to Developer Options>Seletc runtime and select Use ART instead of Dalvik.
After you select it it will force reboot the phone, keep that in mind so you can access recovery in time
In recovery, Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache...boot phone
That's pretty much it. Enter your Account Information and use your phone as normal....
Don't flash dumb sh!t to /system after this....
Bugs
Weak signal strength (not for all of us, but for some it's an issue)
External SD detected as read only by certain apps (Titanium Backup for example)
Hair lice (requires Nix)
Apps don't always work or install when using ART
Front Camera doesn't work
Roaches (needs tweezers and a lighter....wait, I mean Raid)
For Some, Video playback doesn't work
Plugging and/or unplugging HDMI can cause the system to freeze up -- have to hard reset to fix (hold both volumes+power for 10 seconds)
Freaking sweet. Will be flashing to test on Sunday.

Yep, but the signal is weak. Only tried 3g and 4g. Heard 2g might not work earlier today, haven't checked yet. My only real issue is no external sd and not being able to restore my Titanium backups.
I'll add that I installed this with cwm 6.0.4.4 & adb sideload as root on my pc....been too lazy to setup the udev rules so I gotta run adb as root. I won't say one way or another is the other recoveries work or not with this.
been wanting to run this on my HOXL but there hasnt been a rom made for it yet.
willing to move from holoblur to this rom once its fully stable.
Holly smokes I feel like breakdancing right now. Lol
Thanks to all the people involved with this and specially to our developer @skeevydude.

dude, I haven't done much more than compile this and any one of us could have done that. Just look at the commits, dhacker and epinter get all the credit.
Chrome doesn't seem to like the Gapps you linked to, says they're malicious. Anyway, I'll be holding off on AOSP at least until someone gets the external SD working (I already tried taking it out and putting it back in like it fixed it on whatever ROM we had the problem on before, but no luck). I need my backups!

Thanks to all and you.

Latest rom is the latest AOSP 4.4 I've built, KitKat Folder is the folder I have them saved to on Copy.com, ya know, so old copies are around if a newer nightly breaks something -- more of a future thing....
I didnt get any signal with xt925...great to see 4.4 so close to our device though...
OP Updated.
New rom under latest nightly
Intermediate build between yesterdays and this had partial SD support, could read but not write which is at least good enough to restore TB Backups. Not sure if this one is read only or read/write cause I'm still on the boot animation
Awesome man! Downloading it now! Thanks!
Sent from my Atrix HD using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Updated bugs in the OP
Changed no external sd to External SD mounted as read only
Added weak signal strength
I'm gonna mess with some mount commands and see if I can't get the external sd to be read/write. Wish me luck.
At least we can restore from the external sd....better than nothing.
Great news! Thank you! I'll give it a shot. If there is at least read only - it is ok for me because I'm using card for music only.
