Well what exactly do you want to do?

I'm not sure what my options are. I'm on locked bootloader. I'm open to any suggestions.

Your options are limited, but there's a lot you can do. You can load any blur based rom and tweak the system settings to get more out of your phone than was available under stock. A good resource for you is the photon compendium by Lokifishmars:

There's a lot for you there even on a locked bootloader.

I'm still a noob at this so I'm sorry for the questions. I've read throught that thread but I don't see anything. I did get another theme from there but if you don't mind what kind of tweaks are you talking about?

There are some awesome webtop hacks there, my favorite being the one that lets you use webtop with a hdmi cable in place of the dock

And there are others. You might want to also try looking around in the Atrix forums for other tweaks. I'm pretty sure that a lot of them will work for our devices. Use google to search instead of XDA's search. It works a lot better, especially if you don't know what precisely it is that you're looking for.

Vanilla android

Is there any way to.strip it down to where u get a vanilla android experience . I was watching G2x video on phonedog and damn I had no idea the Tegra 2 was capable of that. I am running greyblur and its nowhere near what I saw

Not until the bootloader is unlocked will we be able to load anything else onto the Atrix

That locked bootloader is stabbing my Atrix with no end in sight....
I agree I hope they crack this bootloader wide open, and I like the greyblur rom but I want more out of this phone.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
I may just get. G2x and unlock it to use on ATT sjnce it has or network support
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
i dont trust lg for solid products or support for some reason.
If you can I'd suggest contacting Motorola support about this to let them know that there are lots of people wanting to be able to do this. See this thread for info:

Good call on it now

[Q] Netflix.apk & Froyo

Any chance a netflix application that works on the fascinate GB leak will work on Froyo for fascinate?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
The non altered market apk works on GB, so you need to get GB if you want it.
No **** sherlock.

No, won't work. Next time don't ask if you are going to be an asshole when you get the answer.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
im sure anything is possible..... i dont think it will come from a dev though, probably Netflix.
I'm flattered but, nahh man, I just don't like people saying exactly what I say it different ways. Its not just pet food its food for your pets

Possible ports from skyrocket or t-mobile sgs2

I have been able to port a few roms from the skyrocket or tm sgs2 and just feeling out to see if anyone would be interested in using them

Well that is clearly subjective. Remember we don't all find beauty in the same things. I'm sure many of us find the blue or stock themes attractive and would love a port if you have time.
I was only stating that ive tried porting ones that i like since i have only been using these for personal use. I have only heard from one dev so far so when i get off work i will put his up. So itll be 1 so far until i hear from more devs since i will not post them without permission

In your opinion would something like this be feasible:

Or would it be possible to get his permission/work with him to modify the tool to make porting ROMs to the Note any easier?
edit: It almost sounds like it would be possible to create a "hellraiser" package that you flash in CWM right after flashing a ROM that would make all of the necessary device specific changes for you and would allow flashing of most ROMs.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1335377
After entropy created that AT&T OG SGS2 roms became super plentiful as many of the I9100 ROMs were hellraise-able.
That would be pretty nice. Not sure if their leak is the same as ours but if someone could make a conversion script to run after flashing the rom that would be great to. I used to run t989 roms on my skyrocket using that conversion script by reaperex if I'm not mistaken.

I would be interested in getting something fresh for the ICS.
Yea i am real familliar with the one for the i777 considering i had that phone before the note and i believe i still have it on my computer. I will get intouch with him and see if i can get permission to alter his build and if he agrees ill post that
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
If i cant get permission by the time i get off work i will go home and work on a cwm flashable file to flash after a rom

Google wallet

So I've been looking through associated threads on other phones that didn't have this available to them out of the box. So I assume this is similar issue with our phone?
Like need some .lib files and fix the build.prop and it'll automagically work?
I just really want to use it for the hell of it.
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda premium
I use it quite a bit myself and really miss it now that I'm not using my Galaxy Nexus. I am hoping that they get the N4 Rom ported over soon.

?? 4.0.4 not sure which one that is
Its ICS, if you go to Santods forum. Infectedrom.com you can find the way there but there's more to it than the all in one. Its a little harder but not much. You do have to make an account to view the forums though, but that's not really a hindrance.

you need to unlock your bootloader before anything, you can do that at htcdev.com
Thanks!! Excellent referral! Just wish I could find a simple link like that for roms...lol
