Running 2.3.3, build number is CL 49208, using a Mac. Unlocked bootloader with fastboot. Used recovery-RA-passion-v2.2.1. Put the su-2.3.6.1 on my phone. Finally got it to reboot in recovery. Installed CM7.0.3. Oh, and I bought this phone in China (it's legit). Also, I used info from lots of sources before I finally found a recent post here that suggested the su zip file. One of those things I put in my sdcard is Radio_20100203_2_Signed_PASSION.img. Don't know if that helps. I couldn't find a more updated radio image.

The plan is to install CM7 so I can run openvpn.

It stops and cycles through the CM7 load screen -- turquoise android on a skateboard with an arrow circling around. Goes no further.

What did I miss? How do I fix it? Thanks.

Sounds like your in a bootloop.

Did you flash GAPPS also?

Here's more infos for radio, ect...

Has happened to me before. I removed the SD card and scanned it for errors on my PC. Worked after that. HTH.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cat3rpill3r:
Uhh...I can't put a microsd card in my computer -- I don't think.

Would you recommend updating the radio image? I'm thinking the 5.12.00.08, since my phone is in fact Korean. Do I still need the GAPPS image? Can I flash that image into my phone, or do I need to put it on the root of the sdcard?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
They make an adapter for micro sd card t ofit a USB port.

You can try new radio but If it's bootlooping I think your problem is elsewhere.

Did you check MD5SUM of the ROM before flashing?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cat3rpill3r:
Fortunately, my neighbor has a plethora of microsd adapters.

I did not check the sum. I read a few suggestions about doing that, but I couldn't figure out how, so I just trusted that what I had was fine. Lesson learned.

Let me get this straight: I need to put the GAPPS image on the sdcard AND flash the GAPPS image from fastboot? If I do update the radio image, do I need to reinstall CM7?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
Put cm7 rom and gapps on sd card,

boot into recovery and flash rom then gapps, reboot.

Its highly recommends you do radio via fastboot.

To check md5sum, you can use one of the many free app from market.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cat3rpill3r:
Ok, ran checksum in fastboot. Not really sure what I'm looking for, so I'll just post what happened. In every case except gapps and su, the numbers returned were the same on the sdcard as in the tools file on my mac. Gapps and su are only on the sdcard.

For the CM7 zip, it returned: MD5(pathtofile)= 98d06d6a58c7de87d40269bfe0ae0e7b

For the RA img: 3def709ab1c9e051a92a1c8b1504a36a

For the Radio img: 310d85c4998163818f7dcdef730c2a12

For the gapps zip: 2f6a93654d1cfe191ff709b360ad60fc

For the su zip: b23147cb55eba3ae32a996a913fa54ea

I'm too new to the forum to post the link where I'm getting my instructions.

The CM7 version is update-cm-7.0.3-N1-signed, the RA is recovery-RA-passion-v2.2.1, the radio img is Radio_20100203_2_Signed_PASSION (the updated radio link you posted had removed the radio img because of some sort of violation), and gapps zip is gapps-passion-ERE36B-2-signed.

Still having the bootloop problem. I tried to find the most updated versions of everything I could. Is there a compatibility issue somewhere?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cat3rpill3r:
Another thought:

Do I need to flash the su zip from my sdcard in recovery? I don't know what that will do, so I haven't tried it yet.

There are a couple of files that Amon-RA suggests I delete in order to prevent calling the stock recovery:

/system/etc/install-recovery.sh

/system/recovery-from-boot.p

Any idea how I can check for and delete these using fastboot via mac terminal?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bassmadrigal:
You can't delete them from fastboot. Use fastboot to boot off the new recovery and delete them in there through adb.

fastboot boot recovery "c:\location\to\recovery.img"
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cat3rpill3r:
Can you be more specific? I use fastboot to flash the recovery image, and when I'm in recovery on the phone, I use adb from my computer? Or I can access a command line in the phone?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bassmadrigal:
Well, you use fastboot to flash the recovery. Then you use the command I posted below so you can boot directly into that recovery. Once in there, you use adb on the computer to go into the phone, mount the system partition (which can be done under the mounts and storage menu in recovery) and then find those files and remove them.

But you really only need to delete those files if you want to stay running stock Android. If you have a custom recovery on the phone, that is all you need to install CM, and CM doesn't contain the files that revert the recovery back to stock.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cat3rpill3r:
Just got it to work. It was, in fact, a compatibility issue. The gapps zip was for a different version. I found a different zip (for Gingerbread) at: http://goo-inside.me/gapps. If you have Gingerbread, choose a zip with gb in the name.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgerzo:
Hello guys,

I am having this issue with my device - sometimes when I press the home button the Voice talk / command powered by Vlingo starts. I always press the button just once (I understand that it should happen when one double-presses the home button) and it is very annoying :-(

Note, that I have Settings/Motion/Double tap turned off as well. Is there any way to fix this or do you have any idea what may be wrong??

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chef_Tony:
while in the motion settings, you can see the tutorial clip and that double tap has nothing to do with the home button, but with double tapping the top side of the device to start voice control instead of saying "hi galaxy". so even with that switched off, your device will react to hitting the home button twice and does not really help diagnose the initial problem.

either you have a slight hardware defect in the home button, a software issue (or maybe user error). since hardware would be more severe, let's see the software side first. what exact rom do you have? device rooted or not? anything that could mess with voice input (connected bluetooth hands free, market vlingo or other tts or stt software installed...)?

also, just to exclude user error, let another person try.

P.S. are there special circumstances when this happens? like only from deep sleep, only when charging, with a connected headset, running certain apps or whatever?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgerzo:
Hello, thanks for your reply. I am running the device with an unmodified SW i.e. stock rom (having a branded phone from orange slovakia), no rooted just some apps installed from the android market. It is XXKE4/XWKE7, running android 2.3.3. I dont use bluetooth or handset nor dock or anything like that.

The issue seems to be completely random to me, while I usually notice it during browsing web with opera, but it happens with more apps. I don't know what is tts or stt sw, nor market vlingo. If you would like to know some more details please let me know what would be relevant for you.

I already thought about the hw issue, but I am not sure if they would accept the warranty claim as it is quite random. I thought there would be some way to completely disable voice talk as I dont expect to use it anytime in the future anyway...

As of the user error, it happens both to me as well as to my gf while using the phone for common internet use.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chef_Tony:
ok, that gave us something to work with. for future reference, when asking a question like this, it might speed up the process by giving as much information in the initial post as possible and let me explain why:

the fact that you use your unrooted stock rom tells me, that it is not a common and maybe reported bug that comes with a custom rom, and with an unrooted device, it is rather unlikely, that you screwed up a system component like this.

bluetooth, docks and handfrees could influence the voice input and its triggering by having their own triggers, but that is not the case.

if it happens to other people with your phone as well, it excludes your personal behaviour, tremors or whatever (no offense, you never know, just to cover everything, some people are shaky).

if it happened only in a special state, like only while sleeping for a minute or while charging, it would ensure, that it has something to do with deep sleep.

about the other things: with tts i was referring to text to speech, the engine that reads out display content, like incoming calls, text messages or navigation instructions, stt refers to speech to text, like voice input, saying hi galaxy, telling where to navigate or dictating notes...

vlingo is the engine that is used for voice talk and voice command and there is also a 3rd version, that can be downloaded on the android market, coming with yet other features and having them all present and maybe screwed up settings might have influenced anything there, however, this doesn't seem to be the case either.

so this leaves few options for how to proceed. in your place i would start off with reading this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1097153

it deals with home button issues and a theory on how the home button sometimes might react as much as 15-30 minutes later than initially pressed, which might coincide with an actual press and being registered as a double press (although that's a stretch at best).

and when it comes to a next step, if you made sure, that does not apply to you, i would be uncertain, which way to go. a factory reset might help, but if, after hours of setting the device up again, you realize there has not been any change, it was nothing but work. then there are 2 things left:

either flash a newer rom using odin and any rom from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 (full guide and download links included)

OR decide to send it in for warranty first and see what's what.

flashing a rom might solve your problems but influence your warranty state, if not done correctly and cautiously, which would make sending it in risky.

sending it in first and not getting that bug recognized or repaired for free would mean you might end up with weeks without your phone and/or a huge bill and the same issue as before.

i guess i would get a usb jig, read up on flashing, try several stock roms, not root the device and see if the bug is gone, if not, flash back to stock, make sure the flashing is not traceable and then try a local store or your carrier for a hardware replacement or repair.
[Motorola Droid 3] g3m1n1:
Hey all you D3 users. Just wondering if you use a 3rd party launcher and if so, which one and why? Prior to getting the D3 I was using a D2 flashed with Squidly's ROM, which uses ADW. I liked ADW well enough, but I'd like to hear from you all about the launcher you chose and why. Any issues installing a new launcher to the D3? Please post your recommendations, reasons and tips! Thanks!
[Motorola Droid 3] jediman:
Hi there.

Personally I am sticking with ADW launcher, paid version. It's extremely fast, has a tons of themes, and highly customizable to my liking.

If you like ADW that came with the rom or as a separate download I would suggest the paid version since you get the most up to date code, bug fixes, and performance enhancements, not to mention so extras here and there.

Works great also on my Xoom :)

I did have OpenHome 6 and 5 for a while but those were unbearably slow on the D2, and then they got kicked out of the market for some reason.
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
I agree with jediman. I like ADW launcher a lot. Themes being a big part of it.

I also use it on my NookColor.
[Motorola Droid 3] g3m1n1:
Cool, maybe I will try ADW on the D3. Did you guys have any issues installing ADW on the D3? Did you need root? Were you rooted anyway prior to the install?
[Motorola Droid 3] bobberb:
If you're not into themes but want the most features for free, LauncherPro is the best.

For speed and minimal features, ZeamLauncher.

Customization/speed can swing from GoLauncher to ADW

pick your poison (I use LauncherPro)
[Motorola Droid 3] Seirÿu:
Personally I love Launcher Pro. I use the paid version, mostly cause I resize a lot of widgets, not sure anymore if the free version will back up your launcher either now... it's been so long since i've used the normal version.

LP's really customization and easy to do so. But it's all really just a preference thing like bobberb said, pick your poison!
[Motorola Droid 3] g3m1n1:
Thanks for the replies. I guess I'll just have to pick one and try it out! Will report back on the one I picked.
[Motorola Droid 3] Lyxdeslic:
I personally use GoLauncher along with the CyanogenMod theme. Looks sweet and simple, and I love the blue/green color tone. Super snappy and fast, very little widget/homescreen redraw, even after heavy app usage.

I used to love LauncherPro, but as of a few months ago it seems as though the Dev stopped updating and responding to complaints. It's a shame considering it was the best 3rd party launcher on the Market.

I used ADW for a while and it has a ton of customization. The only reason I didn't stick with it is because I hate the dock button setup.

SPB Shell 3D v1.2.2 now supports the D3

I have a Dx2

I dl'ed spb shell 3d v1.2.2. And w/ frozen mkt and airplane on did a diy trial.

Liked it so much I did the email buy off the dev.s webpage. Dx is supported while Dx2 is not(yet) so there is no mkt support. Mine is V122 bld 20139

[Motorola Droid 3] slow88lx:
I'm on ADW EX, but I really want the launcher that comes with CM7 again.
[Motorola Droid 3] Heelfan71:
Go Launcher. I have all the launchers. GO Launcher combines the best of ADW and LP.
[Motorola Droid 3] bgdwiepp:
Agreed, and of all launchers, its stock setup is probably the best too.
[Motorola Droid 3] g3m1n1:
Cool, and GO Launcher is all good on the D3? No issues?
[Motorola Droid 3] brandonmangan:
I've been using go launcher for around 3 weeks now along with go sms. Both come with major improvements over stock. I haven't used adw or lancher pro on the d3 yet but I have on my hd2 and I prefer go. I've had no issues thus far I highly recommend em. Waiting for cyanogen and all the other customs once we get access.
[Motorola Droid 3] bgdwiepp:
No issues that I have seen thus far. Although, with ADW I was occasionally getting the dock bar dissappearing and not being able to get it back until after a reboot. Probably just an issue with me though.

I have become a big fan of GoLauncher. The developer is always updating it with more and more improvements about every couple of weeks. I have tried them all and alway go back to GoLauncher.
[Motorola Droid 3] dz1mm3rm4n:
I have been using Launcher Pro for a long time now. Had it on my D1 too. I like being able to resize the widgets. I also like its built in widgets for Twitter and Facebook.
[Motorola Droid 3] WarER4X:
I gave the stock launcher the ol' college try for a few weeks, but eventually gravitated back to Launcher Pro. I started using it on the OG Droid to get more homescreens (before the later OTA update that gave 5 screens). I've been using it ever since. I tried ADW for a while, but themes aren't really important to me and I just don't care for the drawer-like action of the extra dock space. I much prefer the three scrolling docks in Launcher Pro. I have less trouble using them.

Launcher Pro is technically "theme-able" now, but there aren't many themes available yet. The author has been promising to do a full ground-up rewrite of the code to make it more efficient, which mattered to me when I was running it on the OG Droid. For the D3, though, it probably doesn't matter much because it runs plenty fast.

-SR-
[Motorola Droid 3] g3m1n1:
I decided to try GO Launcher EX first, since it looked pretty nice and is completely free.

So far, I do like the launcher. Nice transition effects, much better and customizable app drawer, and a decent selection of extra widgets and themes to choose from.

I also installed the Message GOWidget. This widget aggregates and displays your sms/mms messages in a widget. Scrolling, deleting, mark as read, and reply are available. I do have a major issue with the Message widget, however. All received time stamps are about 5 hours behind. This leads me to think there is an issue with the widget correctly detecting the device's time zone. Has anyone else tried Message GOWidget and had the same issue?

I think I will give GO another week and I may try ADW or LauncherPro.
[Motorola Droid 3] PyroHoltz:
ADW

I'm rocking ADW and have been for a while now. I like how customizable it is and I like being able to use icon packs.
[Motorola Droid 3] Serk102:
I went really in depth and used the free versions of ADW, Go, and Pro launchers for about 3 days each. What I found was that Pro was the smoothest out of all of them, although the free version lacks some features. ADW has right many features, but it had laggy transitions(from homescreen to homescree, to app drawer, etc). GO launcher seemed to be the most unique of the three, adding some perks that I enjoyed, but it was also a bit laggy in transitions and had some other things that I really didn't like about it(in the app drawer there is a home button at the bottom that takes up a whole row of apps when I have a perfectly fine home button right under the screen, ADW keeps the dock there which I'm OK with since it adds some functionality). Overall I went with launcher pro, an will probably buy the full version.
[Motorola Droid 3] Dmw017:
I used GO launcher ex on my last phone but on my D3 I extensively tried out adw ex, go launcher ex, and launcher pro. Adw is definitely my top pick, try out the glass ring theme btw.

Divide by zero, I dare you...
[Motorola Droid 3] neilrl79:
This launcher is really great, beautiful, and it has one of the best UI i've seen on a launcher. I would use it all the time except for the fact that it cost $15, if it was $5 I wouldn't think twice about it. Maybe it will go on sale someday.

I wanted to try SPB, but the price tag made me look elsewhere. So far so good on GO Launcher. I really like the Folder widget; it helped me consolidate a homescreen of shortcuts into two widgets.

I would like to hide the status bar, but I haven't found a widget which will show me everything on the status bar. e.g. battery, signal strength & type, vibrate/silent, notifications, etc.
[Motorola Droid 3] kshen1:

[Motorola Droid 3] kern417:
I basically determined that all were interchangeable, so instead i found a theme that i liked first and just used that launcher. if i find another I'll just switch. Plus a lot of ADW themes work for launcher pro as well so i ended up going LPP.
[Motorola Droid 3] fotoingo:
I use the Zeam Launcher right now and it works really nice.

It is a clean launcher (only a couple of kb heavy) doesnt have too many features but is really fast.

Otherwise the stock launcher is not too bad either.

Only thing that s**ks is that you cant place your apps directly on the screen.

[Motorola Droid 3] leobg:
I was long time ADW user and I switched to it when the new 3D blur launcher wasn't performing well due to lack of enough memory. But out of curiosity I decided to try the rival LauncherPro and I found it better running on my XT860 (D3), less memory used, non-existent screen redraws (launcher re-launches). I even bought the paid version so I can resize Widgets primarily. All Motorola Widgets work fine except for quick contacts, but I found the free MeContacts from market does the same job, even better. I am now a LauncherPro fan.

On friday I should receive my Gtablet so I just would like to get some advices about what's the first custom rom I should install.

Please note that I would like to have a rom where everything works!

I was thinking about Flashback (Honeycomb) but it doesnt have full gpu support and the camera doesnt work , so unfortunately its not an option to me yet...

What are your suggests guys?

For starter, I'll recommend froyo or Gingerbread custom rom.

Vegan Tab 7.10 by Gojimi (2.3)

Cyanogen 7 repacked (2.3)

Brilliant Corners by Roebeet(2.2)

Calkulin and Clemesyn version 6 (2.2)

Or if you want honeycomb. Either go for flashback or gtabcomb. Not recommended though, since they tend to drain battery faster than the rest. I personally favored gtabcomb a bit, but the developer (zhyong), discontinued the development (i think it's because xdadevelopers doesn't recongnize it as developer T_T or some sort of issue )
