[Motorola Droid Bionic] ElementalWindX:
Ok I just did 1.8 exactly as said in the youtube video step by step. annnnd its done ...but i don't notice hardly any difference at all. Except the boot animation has a theory rom logo which I'm not fond of. I'm trying the power boost script now to see if its any better.

Not trying to insult but I think I just wasted my time and I broke my free wifi tether :( That no longer works anymore.

Weird part is SOME of my apps I had previously installed are still installed. Not sure how when I wiped exactly what I was told to wipe. It also remembered what wifi network to connect to and still had the same background that I had before the change to this rom.

This is a killer deal for me as I must have the wifi tether. Can someone please help me with this? Thanks.

I checked the sql entry and its set to 0 and not 1 and I've rebooted and still no luck. :(

Why was deblurred pulled is this 1.8 smoother? On deblurred right now
[Motorola Droid Bionic] BFirebird101:
Roms just continue to get smoother, faster, and I've never had as good of battery life as I'm having now I'm on 1.8 vs 1.7 and below. Thank you so much to TH3ORY and DHACKER. I'm assuming the reason life was improved is due to the "dirty battery calibration", however can you explain what it is and what you did? Just mildly curious since it's working great
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
My main gripe with this ROM before was battery life. About to calibrate so that will be tested tomorrow...

Having said that, this is definitely your most polished and smooth release to date. Very, very nice. I want to flash the add-on, but I'm just not a fan of the gmail.

Anyways, thanks again for your work. Nice job.

bootstrap is all ive been using. on the newest d3blurr3d now beta6 or whatever. ive flashed up to 1.7 using bootstrap, i suppose from now on were supposed to use rom manager?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Houdiniact:
All is well I used the one click restore and root tool. Had to get my motorola drivers installed first though since I have a fresh windows install which didnt have them installed which might be why I couldn't mount my bionic in clockwork to load rom 1.8 in the first place. So all is well :) thanks. However I did use bootstrap to do the entire process which is how I have done all of these R3BLURR3d roms and I had no problems.

I am curious though if anyone has any info on why that is not a good way to go it has worked flawless since the beggining of this rom and has continued to do so.

Oh and 1.8 is sweet the new notification bar is awesome I like the look features!! :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] twinkyz1979:
I would like to have every mod except reboot to recovery every time as I find this to be really annoying. Is there a way to do this? If i just delete the cwr file will this work or screw up something else?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dhacker29:
Every mod in PowerBoost is a seperate number just don't that option. Number 5 I think it is.

---------- Post added at 03:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:38 AM ----------

OK folks here is R3D 3XP3RI3NC3. You can find it in the BIONICBox
[Motorola Droid Bionic] twinkyz1979:
if i skip steps 3 and 5 i am missing more mods then just the cwr reboot when i use options 6 to check. step 3 covers all mods and i want this except the cwr reboot. hence i need to know how to get rid of this once it has been done.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dhacker29:
No need to skip 3 just 5
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Damented:
lovin the red theme...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
That is not accurate at all... Bootstrap works perfectly, as long as it the Official Version from Koush. DO NOT use CVPCS's first release.

ROM Manager has never been advised and is certainly not needed. IMO, there is NO reason for a middle man. Boot into Clockwork from the OS and do your thing.

:)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
Just a script that runs on the first boot... It will help with everyone that thinks that should has excellent battery 12 hours after flashing the ROM. :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] roadczar:
Was the blue tooth MAP profile fixed with 1.8?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
Never touched it from stock... What was the issue with it?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] roadczar:
After flashing I was not able to connect to my Ford Sync text messaging. Got a message your device is incompatible... :confused:
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
I would say, a bad flash. None of the BT profile was modified and I can't see any of my tweaks causing a issue with it.

I assume it works with the stock ROM?

If you try, let me know. :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] grinchyyy:
Never got an answer on this before, is there a problem using TIBU to restore user Apps and thier data (not system data obviously)? I was always under the impression that google did not restore data with apps?

Sent from my DROID BIONIC
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
Your own discretion ... I think it is a abortion and a vessel for issues, but.... Other do it and say that don't have issues. :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] roadczar:
Yes, it did work with the stock ROM. MAP was the main reason I went with the Motorola product, they are the only ones offering it. I went from stock to 1.7. No other issues.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ElementalWindX:
Can someone answer my last question? :(
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
I don't support tether hacks... but whatever tether hack that was used on stock should have no problem with this rom.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Mikedick:
I have a slight issue...

I've been stuck on the Dual core screen for over an hour, added up.

Here's what i've done-

Followed the directions for wipe and flash of rom 1.8

Previously I had been running 1.7

Stuck on Dual core screen the 1st time, pulled the battery, waited 30 minutes

Pulled the battery twice more after that and some 15-20 minutes wait each.

What i'm wondering is if one of you can direct me to a fix for this. I'm kinda at a loss, with needing to be in OS to boot to recovery. Any help appreciated. Thanks!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jphillips.hd88:
Might of got a corruption in the download..it happens time to time....i would say use dhackers one click restore....and try again...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ElementalWindX:
Well your wrong, somehow it broke it. It's just a sql entry edit and now it doesn't work. People should support it. It's bs they make you pay another $20 bs fee just to wirelessly tether something you already paid out the ass for. It's criminal imo. It's like me being big brother and taxing you twice for buying your food.

Anyways, just would be nice if someone could help me figure it out.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] gcutter:
I believe you need Windows_One-click_Fastboot_Restore_and_Root and connected to USB to PC. I have done this before 8 days ago.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
You eill need to follow the instructions for one click fastboot.

You don't wipe after you flash the ROM. :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Mikedick:
Ok, thanks guys. My stupidity on that one. Ill give it a shot!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
No reason it should not work. And i am not going to get in a moral/unmoral conversation with you. I don't support it and I will not begin to.

I pay for what I use... As long as i have a reliable connection when i need it, i will never have a problem paying for it.

Tethering uses way more data than the phone will ever think of using. Its just the way it is.

I would say, stock is a better option for you.

:)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ElementalWindX:
figured it out and got it working. Thanks anyways :) I love private messaging

When flashing 3xp3ri3nc3 to d3blurr3d flash cache and dalvik only right
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
Yes.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jrevels:
Th3ory is correct. The Tether hack works just fine on 1.8.... Its possible you had a bad flash. I would Wipe and flash again :D

Any progress on Volume Rocker Bar mods to control tracks when screen is off using music player in ROM.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dincodee:
Or how about the wake on Volume buttons??
[Motorola Droid Bionic] RoboJoe:
This argument doesn't hold any water. It uses the same exact data. There are very few things a computer can do that this phone can't. Are you suggesting that if I open a Web page on my phone with user agent set to desktop, it uses less data than if I open it on my computer? Not to mention, the very fact that we have webtop makes any difference meaningless.

Not that I care, either way, mind you, I just disagree with your started reason. I still respect the fact that you aren't going to actively support it. :-)

Swyped from my Droid Bionic, unless I was in landscape, in which case I Swiftkeyed the hell out of it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Underwater Mike:
No, it's like you being one of the Occupy Wall Street folks and wanting something for free. If you want free tethering, find a carrier that offers it. Or, find a way to add it yourself. Don't preach at the dev because he declines to include something you want. :rolleyes:
[Motorola Droid Bionic] RoboJoe:
I've found that my settings for staying awake when plugged in and what to do when I double tap the home button never stay set. I've had this problem since I first installed this ROM on 1.2, I've just lived with it because there were bigger issues. Is it just me, or are others having this problem?

Swyped from my Droid Bionic, unless I was in landscape, in which case I Swiftkeyed the hell out of it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
I am speaking in point of what a "average" person uses. Not everyone uses "desktop" in there browser and most people that are tethering don't just read the news. These guys using 20GB+ are NOT pulling that on their device alone. In a blanket... yes... I 100% believe you use more data tethering than you use in a standard device environment.

As for the previous 'Food" analogy used... If I go to Outback and order a Prime Rib... but then decide I want mushrooms on it. I'm paying extra. "But ma'am I am already paying $20 for the steak". That is the argument that holds no water. Lol

Sure... Perfect world under a purple sky, I could have all the data I want to eat by any means I want to eat it. That is just not the world we live in. People want it all... Expect to pay for it all. :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] RoboJoe:
I see. I also see the argument on their side, too: if you ordered prime rib and they said you couldn't take it home with you or let your wife have a bite, you'd realize they were being ridiculous and greedy and probably look for ways around their silly, greedy rules.

It's not always about freeloading, it's about being able to use what you paid for however you want. ;-)

[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
I hear ya... It's ALL true. Simply because it comes down to a "Point Of View" answer. :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] caffeineighted:
Right. Most people try to do the Devil's advocate thing by tossing around the typical, "If you want more, pay for it." argument. Unfortunately this whole thing isn't about getting "more" as much as it's about using what you got in different ways.

Look, I'm all for telling someone, "Hey, you signed the contract, now shut up." but this is definitely bordering on ridiculous on the side of the carriers.

In the end, it's all about consequences. Signing the 2-year contract had a consequence of this company mandating how you use your data. Tough cookies. Subsequently, finding a way around it comes with the consequence of being kicked off of your unlimited plan, onto a tethering plan.

So it's what I do. Personal choice. And you know what? I'll deal with the consequences like a man. But you won't catch me starting threads or jumping in anywhere to whine about what these companies do. It's unfortunate but it is what it is. If I get busted for working around it, I deserve that and it's a calculated risk I decided to take.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] zachdroid:
Swap it out for the market gmail. That's what I do. I haven't flashed yet, is it the ics gmail?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
That and there is a stock Gmail flash package in the BionicBox. :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Mikedick:
Thanks again guys. Problem solved. Root part did not work out, but i'll do that later on when I get home. Just happy my phone is booted and working again :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
The Gmail I flashed from the box was not stock. It was themed (not as much) and added screen transitions. Would love a plain jane one. Maybe I'm not flashing the right one...

EDIT: Just saw you added more stuff to the box. Last time (I think v1.6 or 1.7) I didn't see the stock gmail. Flashing now.

---------- Post added at 04:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:38 PM ----------

I also want to mention that battery life seems to be DRASTICALLY improved with this release. I didn't even get a chance to calibrate last night, and my phone went without the charger for my sleep. I only dropped 8%. That's impressive :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
Stock Gmail Flash.... in the Box. :)

Download, wipe Cache and Dalvik ONLY. Flash it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
Can I flash the stock Gmail and the 3xp3ri3nce add on in the same CWM session? Getting wild now...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
Getting silly.... Shouldn't be a issue. Flash the Gmail last though. :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] docluv01:
Is anyone else gettin Google Talk authentication failed after 1.8? I love the flash...! just the thing keeps popping up...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
Will do. Seriously, props on the battery. Was my only beef before. Now it's better than stock...

Doingggggggg
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
You restore **** with TIBU? ?

:)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] docluv01:
Sorry, but I did, just some apps though...

i know i know, I got lazy. I geuss redoing rom will fix?

Or removing and readding account?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] SirTanNacht:
I have the market gmail.apk in the OP of bugs and fixes.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
I have it now. It looks like dhacker cleaned up the black gmail a bit. I might keep using it...

I thought I had read that koush was no longer supporting bootstrap. I removed my misinformation from the aforementioned post. I feel lousy because I myself have chastised people in the past for misinforming as I did. Sorry to the community.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] RoboJoe:
I've never once had an issue with your ROM and tibu. The trick is to only restore user apps, since you only mess with system apps, as far as I can tell. That way I don't fiddle with things you've changed.

Works well for me.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] docluv01:
This is what I do also, and its SOME user apps. I think I screwed up and did "My accounts" :(
[Motorola Droid Bionic] tragicremedy:
I agree I have had very little issues with TB, I setup a specific label in the filters that only does my user apps. I also added in [Bookmarks] Browser and [SMS/MMS/APN] Dialer Storage. So far, no issues with those system data restores....
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
In my opinion, TB is not necessary on this ROM. Every one of my apps redownloaded right away. I was on wifi and back in business within 20 mins.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Underwater Mike:
Is it more readable now?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] roadczar:
Update - I was able to connect via MAP after retrying couple of times. - So no issues with 1.7 and MAP. :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] tragicremedy:
Except if I want to keep all the saved game info in my games. :D

I see a lot of people talking about how well google will restore, but...not having the save game data is a big let down.

Also, I did do it with google previously, but since I was so app happy, and I literally had 100+ apps that I had downloaded but were previously uninstalled. When I did a format and had google restore, it decided to try to reinstall every single one of those apps again, and failed on about half of them.

Personally, I like having a label in TB that restores 20 of my core apps in 3 minutes. Everything is exactly as it should be, never have to put an ID/PW in something like dropbox again....

Of course this is a security risk too, but I'll take that risk for convience, I change all my passwords if I lose a device anyway.

*Edit* Forgot that TB does have an encryption option, this would be more secure. I am just a little reluctant to try it.....
[Motorola Droid Bionic] RoboJoe:

I've been noticing for the last couple of weeks that we were pretty much having the exact same battery issues...Like you I went back to complete stock and my battery has improved greatly.

I've been apprehesive about going back to unl3ash3d...but, I think i'm going to jump back in after reading this...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Underwater Mike:
Exactly the same here. Installing now and will report back.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
It's much better fellas.

It still drops (obviously) but not near as much as before. I made two phones calls at 100 battery, three texts, and checked my email. Down to 94.

When we run Powerboost, we do not need to run #2 Throttle, correct? It's #3 that is doing the magic?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
Not if you don't want it. No.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] calamity:
help powerboost.

i FULLY WIPED

then installed 1.8, set up, let settle,

then went to recovery, wiped cache/davlik then flashed 1.8 experience

then deleted the unthrottle folders off both SD

go to terminal and follow the instructions but tells me this when i press 1

mkdr: can't create directory '/sdcard/unthrottle/backups' :no such file or directory

cp: can't create '/sdcard/unthrottle/backups/services.bak': no such file or directory

is it because i deleted the untrottle folder after i flashed?

if so does anyone have the files? cause i don't wants to reflash again :(
[Motorola Droid Bionic] lmsilver:
I did try to run it, but got an error that no such file or directory exists (/sdcard/unthrottle/jar_files/Bionic/R3BLURR3D/v1.8/services.jar

And what exactly does Unthrottle do? I just started using your ROM at v1.7 if that makes a difference.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
You can't delete the folder after you flash the ROM. Lol. It wont be there.

As the OP says. Delete the folder(s) BEFORE you flash.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
Did you delete the previous unthrottle folder BEFORE you flashed the ROM?

When you first run the script, you HAVE to choose option 1 before doing anything else.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] calamity:
actually the op says delete the untrottle folders first....

then goes straight to talking about the terminal

didn't say anything about deleting it before the flash lol my bad tho

so do i have to ref lash or can i get the folder from someone?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] docluv01:
WIFI setup...

Silly question guys....

Before, When I activated wifi....the phone would automatically scan profiles and connect to my wifi (eitehr work or at home). Now, whether I activate from pulldown or from settings....the only way it connects automatically is if I actually click wifi settings....then it automatically connects within a second.

To be honest I staretd noticing this in ver 1.7, but never really did anything...

Any suggestions? Thanks!

How about this perspective...if you go to a buffet (your unlimited data), and expect to feed your wife (your tethering to your other devices), you will be expected to pay extra (tethering price discounted for 2nd buffet)...but hey, you can add 4 more buffets at no extra price than the one extra buffet).

Sorry, for the off topic post...just saying!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Gossett:
Most of my icons are missing

It's weird. as soon as i install it (1.8 and i've done it twice) everything I have shows up. Well after about two minutes most of my icons disappear (i.e. touchdown, zedge, market, etc..). there doesn't appear to be any reason to this. If i'm on the main screen where you put widgets and I long press and select 'application' they are in fact still here and the only way I can get to them is to put them on my main screen. am i missing something here?

This was me and my roommates in college at a $4.99 Chinese buffet LOL
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Damented:
well , I installed 1.8 last night. I was about 60% on battery when I did. I wiped battery stats then booted. I let it fully charged. It said battery full at 96% but I continued to let it charge until it read 100% . then used Battery cal. app and calibrated battery. Normally It will last all day at work and then some. I get off work at 4 , today it died completely by 3:00 pm . Not very good considering I could get about 14hrs on a full charge prior to 1.8

So I i'm letting it completely charge to full before turning it on and do the same thing . I hope it gets better :(

battery

Ok i have spent the last couple of hours looking for a detailed way how to properly do a battery configuration step by step. couldnt not find anything that was any good. can some one please explain to me how to properly calibrate the battery. when to clear the batery stats and when to unplug is it after u clear the stats or befor or do u clear the stats restart wait till the os is loaded and than unlug.please help. and hopefuly not get mad if it has been posted before.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mischief316:
I had some of the same issues as other people. Today my phone's battery got real hot when i took out the phone it was at 30% without even using it at all. the icons tend to get all messed up even my widgets too. over all feels ok but very buggy.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] quentin0:
Flashed 1.8 and was able to keep my data via advanced restore :cool:

I know I know, I'm getting cocky. I just hate titanium backup and lately not a single app from the market reinstalls when I factory reset. It was a risk, but it was worth it.

Loving the pulldown menu. Some bucks coming your way when I get home.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] lmsilver:
I did not. I didn't think I'd have an unthrottle folder as I started using your ROM at 1.7 only, no previous versions. Also, I tried to see if the directory/file that was missing (/sdcard/unthrottle/jar_files/Bionic/R3BLURR3D/v1.8/services.jar) existed manually. It did not. But there was a v1.6/services.jar. So perhaps I need to flash again and delete those folders and see if the v1.8 will be copied.
