This is my post from the bugs and fixes thread...I couldn't get powerboost to work after trying what everyone else suggested as well.

Hope this might help someone, I have been having a heck of a time getting the powerboost script to work, specifically the CWM on every boot.

I have had issues since 1.5 and then on 1.6 and then again on 1.7. I think a lot of the problem was that I was using fixes multiple times trying to get this to work on different versions from Theory and from the other ini.d fix from this post http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1294009

I had also modified the unthrottle folder in 1.5 and 1.6 which was in another post where you rename 1.5 to 1.2 etc etc. When I went to 1.7 I did delete all unthrottle folders, then tried the official way that theory has on his OP. Still no go, it would work a few times, then it wouldn't.

I finally got it fixed by doing yet another flash, this time 3x on everything. 3x cache wipe, 3x dalvik, 3x format /system, 3x full wipe, install 1.7, let it settle. Install busybox, run script, ran mods, it did not work.... I then ran option 5, and did not reboot from the script, powered off, now CWM boots everytime.

That's not [D3]BLURR3D. It is dhackers theme that he is creating. :)

The tester for [D3] went out last night, I will have the UI done and released when I get back from Vacation. :)

Softbricked my phone. Have to wait till I get home till I can use my phone again.

Information:

Updated from 1.3 to 1.7

In CWM did the following:

1. Wipe cache

2. Wipe system

3. Wipe dalvik

4. Update from 1.7 zip.

5. Wipe cache

6. Wipe system

7. Wipe dalvik

8. Wipe battery stats.

9. Reboot system.

System hangs at "Dual Core" bootup screen.

Naughty things I did:

I downloaded the zip directly to my phone over wifi.

I did NOT check the MD5.

After softbrick I booted into original recovery and did a wipe/format, which didn't help any.

Did this at work where I am unable to do a fastboot recovery or FXZ flash.

Just a warning, if coming from 1.3, you might want to do a full wipe.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ROB281:
not trying to be an ass, but droidth3ory says you have to do a full wipe in the op, 1.5 was the last of the no wipe updates
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
Lol... You can't wipe the system after you install the ROM. You wiped the whole ROM. :)

Wipe BEFORE installing the ROM.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] harpdoc:
In the 24 hours since I ran it, I'm having great battery life with Powerboost Conservative CPU Governor, with no noticeable decrease in speed. Good stuff!

Like many, I struggled to get Powerboost to run for a while.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] zachdroid:
Coming from any release prior to 1.6 you HAVE to do a full wipe. DT stayed this because it has different system files that don't play well with older builds. So a total data wipe is necessary.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Proff3ss0r Farnsw0rth:
Correct me if im wrong but im pretty sure system is basically your OS by wiping system after flashing you pretty much wipe what you just flashed. Wipes come before flash except for battery stats. You are going to have to start from scratch with one click and reroot re strap, then uber wipe then flash.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jphillips.hd88:
Oops...my bad...I saw the d3blurr3d in the drop down and assumed...

Need some more help testing, I'd love to help...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dadicus:
Well... I guess that explains it.

Guess I won't make that mistake twice.

Perhaps a small update to the instructions could be made to indicate that the wipes should be done before, and only before, the update. I know 99.9% of people will get it right, but there are those select 0.1% that will mess it up. I guess that makes me unique, even if only uniquely ignorant.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] SirTanNacht:
You want the link to test D3BLURR3D?

PM me if you want me to post the link.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dadicus:
Would you care to point that out?

In the OP there is no mention of the fact that if you are coming from 1.5 or earlier you must do a full wipe.

It does mention that if you are coming from any OTHER rom, you need to do a full wipe, then goes on to say that if you are just doing an update all you need to do is wipe cach, system and dalvik. No mentions of full wipes between versions in OP.

Perhaps it was there and got removed.

---------- Post added at 04:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:49 PM ----------

"INSTALL THE ROM AND WALK AWAY!!! LET THE ROM SETTLE!!! RUSHING THE KERNEL WILL ONLY CAUSE YOU ISSUES."

Can you elaborate? Should I leave it in recovery after install of the rom completes to allow it to "settle," or should I intall the update, select reboot, then leave it alone for about 10 minutes as it boots up and allows the system to "settle?"
[Motorola Droid Bionic] docluv01:
SIlly question, I was abot to run this script, but is there any way to confirm that it is indeed working?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cromanorn:
He has mentioned it multiple times in the thread that if your coming from 1.5 or earlier you need to do a full wipe. If your on 1.6 you do not need to do a full wipe. It would be helpful if it was in the OP, but like I said, it has been mentioned numerous times.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dadicus:
I agree. With 150+ pages to a thread, it would be advantageous to keep such dire tips in the OP.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] boomerod:
Love the ROM guys.

Anyone notice a slight lag when opening Google Voice?

Also, I can't find a way to switch between email accounts in the native app, except to use the Messaging app. Am I missing something?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jamezr:
You don't have to read 150 pages...just the first OP with detailed instructions. Plus before flashing Roms you should have a little knowlege of how everything works and how the process is done....

This is from the first page of the OP...this is pretty clear....

"STEP BY STEP... FOLLOW THIS OR BE NUKED!!!

IN CLOCKWORK:

WIPE CACHE

UNDER MOUNTS AND STORAGE, FORMAT SYSTEM

UNDER ADVANCED, WIPE DALVIK

INSTALL AND HOLD TO THE PHONE WITH BOTH HANDS."
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dan46n2:
Should probably be clarified as to which to use:

Install update from zip

or

Install zip from sd card

I always choose the latter and have had NO issues with installing any of the Th3ory ROM's on my bionic so far...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] SirTanNacht:
if the name of the zip is anything but update.zip..... Use the 2nd option! Ha
[Motorola Droid Bionic] vlcm810:
Does anybody know where i can find the background images in the zip file to this ROM. I like most of them and would like to save them onto my computer. I tried looking through these pages and im not even sure if its the right thread for this. But i figured id ask since it has to do with this ROM. Thanks.

gmail.apk copy help

Please sir, explain how I can fix the gmail.apk. The permissions are correct I believe, but I cannot copy the file to the system/app folder.

Can you give me a pointer here? I'd much appreciate it. I'm having a difficult time with blacked out gmail.

Thanks,

Mr. Dandy
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dadicus:
Way to jump on the bandwagon. Perhaps before you join in you would like to go back and re-read the posts and see exactly what I did wrong that I am getting flamed for before you pull out that flamethrower.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] SirTanNacht:
You will need to use a file explorer i.e. root explorer that can mount your system r/w, because you cannot place it when the system is mounted as r/o...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jimdandy:
Do you know if this is possible with ES File explorer? I'm not so familiar with Astro, but can follow directions if someone would be kind enough to explain. I tried to cp from terminal as root, but no dice. same problem. root fs isn't mounted as root, I think
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jamezr:
I know what you did. Just that you screwed up...just admit it...we ALL have screwed up at some point in flashing roms. But we don't blame it on the OP not warning us not to make the mistake we made.....just own up to it and move on.....it a learning experience.... You wiped your phone...then installed rom then wiped again leaving your phone with no operating system.....I don't think the install instructions should warn against common sense....

[Motorola Droid Bionic] tbgreen89:
Very good rom! Just about finished setting up the way I like it. Only thing I noticed so far is my signal strength likes to go up and down. Usually on the stock rom I got full bars on 4g in my city but after flashing it likes to jump up and down.

Thanks though keep up the good work!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] vlcm810:
I noticed that too, not sure if its the Rom that is doing it or if its just coincidental
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dadicus:
Your still not following the conversation I was having with someone else before you jumped in.

I never blamed the OP for my mistake. I know I messed up and did not blame that on him, read it again. I even blatently admitted my ignorance when it came to wiping the /system but I guess you missed that. My conversation is not with you or the OP. OP's only involvement was to call out my mistake which I took credit for. My conversation is with another user, with whom I was having a pleasant and calm discussion of the need to do a full wipe when moving from 1.5 or lower to 1.6 or higher. It had NOTHING to do with wiping cache, /system and dalvik as you were so eager to point out as my mistake. The fact that I had to explain to you why your uninvited and belittling posts were incorrect just goes to show you why trolls should read thoroughly before attempting to flame. The display of your ignorance and arrogance through an attempt to insult me and subtly suggest that your experience exceeds mine, which you will be sure to deny, far exceeds my previous ignorance of the actual outcome of a wipe of the /system.

Now, as you have succeeded in dragging me on for several post in muddling up this great thread of DroidTh3ory's with your nonsense, I will neglect to respond to any further of your incitements as that is not what this thread is for.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] SirTanNacht:
Personally I havent used es file explorer.

In an app that allows you to mount the system as r/w

copy the file from your download folder

navigate to system/app

mount as r/w

paste the gmail.apk

verify permissions are rw/r/r

mount system r/o

reboot phone

should be working after reboot.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] jamezr:
yeah....you wipe out your phone's operating system and now your kinda rude about it...have trouble admitting fault a lot? Your mistake was wiping system then installing then wiping system again! Get it??? Not dalvik or cashe...

You say I am ignorant and arrogant...man.......I resisted getting personal but cool it with the personal attacks dude....I haven't called you any names yet so stop.....

Contacts menu force closes every time now in 1.7
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dhacker29:
Did you freeze anything our restore data with titanium?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Htimez2:
I restored data on some apps but none having anything to do with contacts.

PS his rom should allow data restoring through titanium backup, if not something would be very wrong, but I dont think that that is the issue.

Also I restored my first backup that I made before installing everything and it is fine so I'll just have to start from there, I don't know what caused the contacts to start force closing but hopefully it wont happen again this time. So V1.7 doesn't start off with contacts force closing but apparently there is something that can be done to cause your contacts to always force close.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dhacker29:
PS 90% of the BS issues we answer on here are from either not doing a full wipe or using titanium ****itup. Js
[Motorola Droid Bionic] tragicremedy:
If you go into settings of es explorer there is a check for root explorer and mount file system. Should be able to do anything you need after that.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Gaelic241:
+1 - Agreed again. I've been in the 20's and 30 GB on occasion and never suffered from the data throttle either. I can't fathom using 100BG of data truthfully, lol! But I LOVE my unlimited 4G!!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Proff3ss0r Farnsw0rth:
In ES hit your menu hard key scroll down to root explorer and check it will ask for su and allow.

So have any new problems been found in the 1.7 version im putting this on my dads phone so it needs to be stable
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Versatile1:
I haven't had any, everything works for me. Most problems are user error IMO
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nosit1:
So, issue is still prevalent after a complete system wipe.

I will pay someone $8 to do a full Nandroid of their (clean ) system that has all the tweaks enabled.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Proff3ss0r Farnsw0rth:
Just a word of warning wipe everything 2 or 3 times before flashing and be patient once it boots the first time leave it alone for like 10 min and let it chill. Also, the conservative battery governed is the ****, no noticeable lag at all and great battery life boost.

I lost my unlimited 4G today. I found out this morning I couldn't access the voice mail on my personal line. I was getting the greeting message I used to get when I access my voice mail. I called VZW and found out somehow my number has been ported to Sprint without my authorization. By the time I ported the number back to VZW, they told me they cannot give me back the unlimited data plan. I'm so pissed:mad: This VZW rep helped me porting the number back told me there was nothing she could do to reinstate the unlimited data plan. Is there anything I can do to get the unlimited data plan back? What should I do?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nosit1:
On my 10th reflash. Wiped 5 times this time, wiped SD card and SD ext (minus putting the package back on). Let it sit for 15 minutes. I'm just out of things.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Proff3ss0r Farnsw0rth:
I had a similarish issue where after I had upgraded to the charge and decided to trade back I had recycled my D1 to a friend and had to activate a feature phone for 3 days after my 14 day trade in was up. They put me on tiered when putting me back on the smartphone plan because "it was a new plan now" in account of downgrade to reupgrade. The store told me too bad while I was in there. I called a Verizon customer service rep and expressed my dissatisfaction and she told me it could be reversed for 14 days after the fact if you got bumped down. I would give it a try.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] Htimez2:
I figured out what was causing the contacts to force close. I was ble to figure it out by painstakingly installing each app and checking contacts each time till it messed up and I found out that the google+ 2.0 app was causing the contacts to do the force close, and I notice it causes it on both reblurred 1.7 and Liberty 47. Fortunately there is an easy fix which is to just uninstall it and go back to the old google+. Just thought I should update and let everyone know what was causing the contacts force close issue I was having. Had nothing to do with titanium back up, wiping or anything else as I stated was quite obvious before.

---------- Post added at 10:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:38 PM ----------

Well neither of those was the issue, it was the google+ 2.0 app from rootzwiki.

Aside from the unreadable themed Gmail, I have loved everything about 1.7 so far. I have much better battery life (aided by JuiceDefender Ultimate) than I did on stock odexed.

Customizable toggles in the notification bar and having a reset option in the Phone Options popup would make it almost perfect.

I got a question for everyone using this rom. On the stock bionic rom running AnTuTu i was able to get a benchmark score of 4998 with no modifications whatsoever besides rooting. Using this rom my benchmark score seems to have declined to 4832, is there a reason for that? I figured with all of the optimizations to the OS in this rom that I would be able to break 5000, especially with bloatware and extra junk removed.
