If u choose to play music at ur desk when no one is there that is a choice. Not only is that a waste of battery, that's the same as leaving ur user logged into ur computer at work when u leave ur desk. Anyone has access to ur files and info. That doesn't necessarily make it a security flaw with th OS. That's just the way its done and it isn't made to make up for user error or no thought on the users part. If the user is worried about security then he need to use the phone/device as such or request or develop a feature.

I'm not picking sides, but everyone needs to chill and make sure their comments don't undermine or insult others. ;) that can help prevent conflict.
[Motorola Droid 3] wootizzle:
It's not even an argument you're *****-fitting about it for no reason. If there isn't a setting to change or the setting doesn't work then submit it to Hash's bug tracker, that's the purpose of it.
[Motorola Droid 3] jenol:
Well for those that know this is not a bug so hashcode won't fix it it happens on all devices running cm7 miui or other roms has from the begining starting with the g1 so to the guy who said I was calling names then so be it and if you seem to know what your talking about then go ahead and look through the code and do a better job than cyanogen and start deving. if not then stfu
[Motorola Droid 3] jenol:
Oh yes I do Dev just not publicly due to people who ask when they have no idea if you a phone that's locked down go check eBay I believe they sell one with a padlock installed
[Motorola Droid 3] donwhall70:
You people have got to be kidding me. Like leaving a car alarm blaring and walking away from car? wtf lol... I don't care if you put 1000 sirens and blare them as loud as they can go... If you lock your car door it should stay locked. If the phone is not supposed to be bypassed by using the lockscreen widget and it does, then it's a flaw and needs to be fixed. Saying a user is stupid for leaving their phone laying around with the music blaring is assinine. Hash has a tracker, USE IT!!! Now can we get to something more productive on this thread?
[Motorola Droid 3] Darksurf:
Once again, u missed the point of what's said. Forgive me if I'm reading it wrong, but ur comment could have had a better tone.

1) U can't "lose" a device when it is constantly reminding u where it is.

2) U evidently aren't "locking" the screen if an app prevents locking.

3) security is controllable by the user if the user is mindful and not careless.

4) kindly request the feature u would like (or dev it urself)

5) be mindful of what u say as not to offend others.

Please keep things civil guys ;). We are all on the same side here. We all want great devs, support, and roms for the droid3.
[Motorola Droid 3] donwhall70:
No.. The point is, using a widget on the lockscreen bypasses the security lock. Yes it's an issue and yes it needs fixed if this is the case. The rest is irrelevant. Now... Please lets drop it.
[Motorola Droid 3] tacosrdelicioso:
This argument is seriously retarded.....make a seperate thread concerning this "bug" or "no bug" and stop ****ting all over this thread.
[Motorola Droid 3] jtrag:
I agree. +1
[Motorola Droid 3] Darksurf:
Does anyone know why we can get camera to take stills but no video? :/
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
Video on the D3/Bionic was done through another set of proprietary libs/software: arcsoft

For which I have no source to use.

So all of the Moto source is useless.

It was going to be a harder fix for the camcorder so I prioritized it farther behind.
[Motorola Droid 3] Darksurf:
Bummer. Thanx for the heads up. What are the odds of us ever getting video camera support without having source? :( please don't say none.
[Motorola Droid 3] Ohh_Trenton:
It was already mentioned and forgive me if I missed something but if you're looking for video camera support, download "videocam illusion". It is able to record videos for this build.

According to the OP, Wifi is working...but for me, while it DOES scan for networks and find them, it goes from "Connecting..." straight to "Disconnected". :confused:

In short: Wifi doesn't work for me...and I'm wondering if it's the same for anyone else.
[Motorola Droid 3] niko99:
I have similar situation, but after only when i install GSM patch, if you dont use any fix, and your wifi (after trying get IP) disconntecting maybe you should do a wipe / format system and install CM7 once again :confused:
[Motorola Droid 3] amaroth:
please don't throw rocks at me but..

i'm running 5.6.890 ota leak rooted..

and i've got droid 3 bootstrapper.

can i just download the alpha zip and install it with d3 bootstrapper?
[Motorola Droid 3] bobberb:
The only thing keeping me back from using this full time is the finicky audio. That being said, I suggest you Safestrap this and not bootstrap it.
[Motorola Droid 3] amaroth:
how finicky is it? what's the bug actually do? keeps getting lower or something?
[Motorola Droid 3] prstorero:
I've been running the 11/16 build since it was released and the previous one days before updating and haven't had a single audio issue. And I listen to music a lot

sent from my DROID 3

running cm7 11/16 build
[Motorola Droid 3] amaroth:
well I uninstalled droid 3 bootstrapper, installed safestrap and attempted the install recovery option. It got to 100% and then force closed at the end. Every time i tried to open safestrap again it would immediately force close. I restarted my d3 and it seemed to display the little splash menu that tells you to hit menu for recovery but when I did, screen went black and got into a boot loop.

pulled battery and turned on phone and ignored the safestrap screen and it booted up regular...

am i doing something wrong?
[Motorola Droid 3] MerkXR4:
I think it would be useful if someone could type up a tutorial on how to go from a CM7 device using Safestrap to using it with D3 Bootstrapper, and vice versa. I currently have Safestrap installed and would like to go to Bootstrapper but am concerned about uninstalling Safestrap properly because I have heard having both installed at the same time makes 'bad things' happen haha

So yea, a step by step tutorial would be MOST appreciated. One more question... do the two options (Safestrap/Bootstrap) provide different functionality or is it simply a matter of it being a different user interface and ability to interact with ROM manager?

Thanks for everything guys!
[Motorola Droid 3] bobberb:
Anything under 60% is barely audible. 100% isn't as loud as it should be and doesn't sound good.
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
Double check that you have about 3 megs free on your /system. It sounds like you may be a bit low.
[Motorola Droid 3] lotzakritters:
Awesome post +1000000000000000000
[Motorola Droid 3] amaroth:
Well I got it up and running. I love it! The only thing I am wondering is if it is possible to regain the 'media audio effects' options in the sounds settings from stock d3 firmware.. It has to be possible right?

also, I sbf'd my phone to stock 5.6.890 before I installed CM7 and I was wondering if CM7 updates my baseband and kernal to the latest versions?

my baseband version is N_03.18.29P

and my kernal is 2.6.35.7-g790a33c

edit: so I totally just discovered DSPManager in my apps.. lol. I'm about to play with it.

edit again: enabled equalizer in DSPManager and now it immediately force closed. Force closes when I try to open DSPManager. wat da hale?

[Motorola Droid 3] ryanmcdonald:
Is CM7 development dead for D3?

Hash,

Thanks for all your hard work so far on CM7. I notice you are not releasing updates as frequently as you used to. Do you plan on completing CM7? The lack of camera/video is hard (and C360 is not workable longterm). It seems like you are so close, and now I wonder if you are starting all over again for ICS. Can you share your plans? ;)
[Motorola Droid 3] prstorero:
He's going to spend most time on ics but still do some work on cm7
[Motorola Droid 3] spc_hicks09:
Hashcode, I really appreciate all your hard work on CM7 and ICS!

CM7 looks really nice, I really missed that T-Mo Theme Chooser! Thanks again man, funds are coming soon for help on ICS development!
[Motorola Droid 3] spc_hicks09:
Maybe someone can help me out?

Every time I flash this, I get the blinking triangle in the statusbar and I have no data connection. Am I doing something wrong?

There are no real instructions in the OP so hopefully someone can help me out. I just got this D3 a couple days ago so I'm not too familiar with safestrap and all that but here's how I've been flashing this ROM:

Boot into "recovery" or whatever menu it is and select "BP Tools"

Enable "safe system"

Wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache

wipe dalvik

flash rom

reboot

I've noticed that if I don't enable "safe system" the ROM doesn't even flash. How am I supposed to get this installed?
[Motorola Droid 3] Joe.cotto:
Enable safe system, format system in mounts menu, install zip, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, and reboot. Make sure you also install Gapps. You can check out Hashcodes blog for more up to date instruction. The link is in the OP.
[Motorola Droid 3] spc_hicks09:
Same results

Enable Safe System

Formatted system

installed CM7

wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache

flashed gapps

reboot --> No connection.

I just don't get it, it's only with CM7. Am I supposed to do the *228 after this or is something else going on? Won't even let me go through the Google sign in because I have no network connection at all.
[Motorola Droid 3] Ohh_Trenton:
I'm not sure if this is the problem or not but when you first posted the steps you did, you didn't mention format system,

In your latest post, it seems like things are a bit out of order. IMO.

Try this:

Boot into safestrap

Wipe Data/Factory reset

Wipe cache

THEN format system.

Then Install CM7

Reboot.
[Motorola Droid 3] spc_hicks09:
Thanks for all the help, I'll try that way later. Had to just restore a backup because I'm at work and don't have my charger. I'll try and repost my results. So weird that it's only CM7 that does this.
[Motorola Droid 3] Cdjones187:
Try dialing *228 to activate the phone maybe??

Edit: didnt see you mention that already, but I would bet that is your problem. If you have a triangle its because the phone has no service.
[Motorola Droid 3] spc_hicks09:
Yeah I tried that but the phone will not go through the activation process because I have no service/signal. I have tried almost everything and it's driving me nuts so I restored my backup of stock. Thanks though!
[Motorola Droid 3] ChaoticWeaponry:
*228 option 1, then again on option 2. Assuming you're on verizon. This will reprogram your phone. (No data lost though)
[Motorola Droid 3] GoodLooks550:
In the Lockscreen settings, I had menu unlock enabled, and it was working fine. However, when it is unchecked (disabled), the menu unlock still continues to function. I've restarted the phone, and the problem still persists. Is this a glitch or am I forgetting something? If it matters, I use gestures to unlock my phone, as well. Thanks.
[Motorola Droid 3] spc_hicks09:
Can't do this because of the fact that I'm not connected to any mobile network. Programming fails about 2 seconds in.
[Motorola Droid 3] Ohh_Trenton:
Let me know what happens
[Motorola Droid 3] spc_hicks09:
Did your method and it still doesn't work lol. I don't understand why ONLY cm7 is doing this. I had data when I was on stock, had data on DarkDroid. Nothing at all seems to work with CM7.
[Motorola Droid 3] Ohh_Trenton:
Let's recap if you are still trying to work this out. Lol.

You have the latest CM7 Build right?

You have the Gapps 2011-08-28 Universal link right?

You WIPED DATA/FACTORY RESET?

WIPED CACHE?

FORMATTED SYSTEM?

If yes,

Then install CM7 FIRST then REBOOT.

If you don't get the triangle, reboot into recovery and install GAPPS and see if that is the issue.

I DO recall getting that triangle when i first flashed the leaked OTA stock and I messed around with the Mobile Networks.. CDMA, Global. Etc.. I changed the settings and i rebooted and it worked. Try messing around with that.
[Motorola Droid 3] spc_hicks09:
Lol, yeah I'm still trying to mess around with it. I get the triangle regardless if I flash gapps or not. Kind of odd though now. I still have the triangle but I can make calls. Can't download anything from the market and can't bring up anything on the browser unless I'm on wifi though haha. Gonna mess around with all the data settings and see what happens. I swear I'm really not a noob lol. Coming from a Droid Charge with an unlocked bootloader though, all this stuff is new to me.
[Motorola Droid 3] eww245:
Finally set this up. It's well worth it! Memory managment is awesome, don't think any of my usual apps get killed. Got rid of DSP and got Equalizer from the market. And sorry but I don't like using /emmc and having the external card /sdcard, took some time but I finally figured out how to set it up the way the blur rom is.

Awesome work Hashcode, keep it up :)
[Motorola Droid 3] spc_hicks09:
Could you please post your install method? Been having trouble trying to install this.
[Motorola Droid 3] Ohh_Trenton:
Yeah I've seen your work in the past. You're definitely not a noob. This is just strange lol. I honestly think somewhere in the data settings or network settings, something is probably just tweaked. I hope I have been some kind of help.

[Motorola Droid 3] bobberb:
Could you tell us how you redid the /emmc /sdcard and /sdcard-ext?
[Motorola Droid 3] mikedyk43:
I have already posted this bug in Hashcodes bug tracker:

http://www.hash-of-codes.com/tracker/buglist.cgi?regetlastlist=387

It is bug ID 52 on the list. You can check it out at the above url and add yourself to the CC list to be notified once something has been done about this bug.
[Motorola Droid 3] eww245:
Replaced /system/etc/vold.fstab with the stock one, or from any other rom. Edited ro.additionalmounts=/mnt/sdcard-ext in /system/build.prop

Created /data/local/userinit.sh

#!/system/bin/sh
mount -wo remount /
ln -s /mnt/sdcard-ext /sdcard-ext
rm /emmc
mount -ro remount /

Reboot
[Motorola Droid 3] bobberb:
Is this something you do everytime you upgrade to Hashcode's new version?
[Motorola Droid 3] eww245:
Yes you would need to except for userinit.sh if you don't wipe.

Side Note

Pro Paint Camera is a good option until the stock camera works, it's fast too.
[Motorola Droid 3] iomthd:
I actually installed this last night and could not get rid of that darn roaming triangle. Going to give it another shot next week lol.
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
hey hashcode, i don't know if you're aware but CM7 boots on xt860's running the FW found in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=19988205#post19988205 however i get continuous FC's on com.android.phone, any ideas

I should also note booting is hit or miss, sometimes it bootloops, and i'll reflash and it will work
[Motorola Droid 3] GoodLooks550:
Thanks. Have you found a work around? I had someone inadvertently unlock my phone, and I need to disable it. Hope I don't have to reflash.
[Motorola Droid 3] Ohh_Trenton:
You can re flash it w/o wiping data or anything. See if that helps
[Motorola Droid 3] jweber228:
Just wanted to say thanks for this, works great and i like this arrangement better. Question, does userinit.sh get ran on every reboot? And if so, does it NEED to run on every reboot?
[Motorola Droid 3] eww245:
Yes it runs every time and is needed only to create /sdcard-ext directory otherwise it's still mounted on /mnt/sdcard-ext. This can be done in init.rc but this was just the easier way to do it..
[Motorola Droid 3] spc_hicks09:
Thanks to ChaoticWeaponry my problem was finally solved. You MUST have the SIM card in this phone in order to have mobile data.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1375151&page=2
[Motorola Droid 3] mikedyk43:
I haven't found anything, but that might be because I haven't tried anything. If you do find something that does correct this, please post it here.
[Motorola Droid 3] ChaoticWeaponry:
I believe that Verizon "has" to give you a SIM card upon buying the phone. They market the phone as a GLOBAL phone, why give it to you without a SIM?
[Motorola Droid 3] iomthd:
Ugh, think I lost that long ago
[Motorola Droid 3] spc_hicks09:
No idea but they didn't give me one. They said I didn't need it.

I never had one so I know how you feel. Sure would be nice to have CM7 on my phone.

---------- Post added at 05:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:02 PM ----------

Ok so there IS a way to get CM7 installed without the SIM card but it is this:
[Motorola Droid 3] iomthd:
Thanks for that!
[Motorola Droid 3] Flowah:
The 3G is still really spotty for me. I've turned on international roaming, have a SIM card in there from VZW (even tried one from ATT), did the whole forceclose thing, also the dev tools bad behavior stuff.

Still no 3G. I can get 1x sometimes, but no 3G.

I can text, I can call, but I can't use the browser and I can't use market or maps.
[Motorola Droid 3] ChaoticWeaponry:
Okay I got this to work, but it moved my sdcard-ext to the /mnt folder, and I'm used to it being on / How would I do this?
[Motorola Droid 3] eww245:
Both the internal and external sdcard's are always mounted in /mnt regardless of the name. The script just creates a symbolic link from that mount point to /sdcard-ext.

Did you by any chance add the init.d hack? If so that will prevent userinit.sh from running, as it deletes all files from /system/etc/init.d.

The other option would be to put the script in /system/etc/init.d/ name it "99userinit" and change the permissions/owner to match the other init scripts
[Motorola Droid 3] ChaoticWeaponry:
Not using the init.d hack right now. I'm fine with the /mnt/sdcard thing. Haha I'm just used to root explorer having /sdcard and /sdcard-ext right when I start the app.

Thanks though!
[Motorola Droid 3] jchenny:
Any chance to your the ringtone volume issue fixed? Sometimes i happens around 3 times per hour...

This is the only drawback of this rom, as long as this is fixed, then i think this rom is almost perfect...
[Motorola Droid 3] tacosrdelicioso:
System mobile hotspot ever get working? Apple doesn't like adhoc...
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
Use something like barnacle from the market for WiFi Tether (and I think it supports infrastructure).
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
I need to find out where this is happening .. I know that it's after phone calls when the volume drops down. Any more insight is appreciated.
[Motorola Droid 3] jchenny:
The volume isn't dropped down, the ringtone is switched to the "earphone speaker" after phone calls, so i think we need to teach the phone to switch it to the "loud speaker" at the back...

Maybe I will try to have a phone call with the "loud speaker", and see if the ringtone would stay after the call is end...if so, i think the phone simply does not realise it needs to switch the speaker back after the phone call is ended...
[Motorola Droid 3] Unrelashade:
Hi there peoplez,

Hashcode, thank you very much for your efforts on CM for Droid 3 (CM 9 as well :) !)

I'm from Germany and thinking about getting the Droid 3 imported. Will it work in Germany (GSM)? I totally love CM, had it on my G1 all the time, even had a 7.1 version from ezTerry on it (great guy btw).

Regards

Unrelashade
[Motorola Droid 3] ich511:
The Stock Droid 3 does. Even UMTS. CM7 may have some issues though, not sure how good all the workarounds work. There are two or three threads on this forum that say it's solved, but since I am still on stock... (no time to play)

[Motorola Droid 3] tacosrdelicioso:
Well you got 21+ hours so I'd say no problem lol
[Motorola Droid 3] slayer621:
Not sure if it has been stated or if this will be updated anytime soon with the CM9/ICS project still going, but there appears to be a glitch with clearing individual notifications. Well it's just very hard, any deviation from the path will cause it to snap back.

Not expecting a fix, but thought I should point it out. Thanks for the rom Hash!
[Motorola Droid 3] MNstan87:
Where do you get that cam? I tried checking the Android Market, Amazon App Store and searching on here...Im lost!

Also, I was reading about wifi hot spot apps before, any recommendations for which one to use?
[Motorola Droid 3] mikedyk43:
The app is Camera 360 and it is in the Android market.
[Motorola Droid 3] ChaoticWeaponry:
To me it looks like you have a rogue system app somewhere. Get titanium backup and freeze some system apps that you don't use (nandroid backup before hand though) See if that helps your battery usage.
[Motorola Droid 3] Cdjones187:
Camera 360 Ultimate is now FREE: Link

Android Wifi Tether (From Google so it's also FREE and no hack needed): Link

Can't seem to get this to boot up in non safe mode on safestrap.... I basically want to have this as my main Rom ande be able to switch over to the cm9 builds as my safe Rom... I get it up and running in safe mode then uninstall safestrap install d3bootstrap, run the recovery and when I try to reboot so I can uninstall bootstrap and reinstall safestrap thus making this my "non safe" Rom but I can't get past the splash screen to get back into safestrap recovery the actual Rom won't boot up.... any advice
[Motorola Droid 3] lotzakritters:
I really don't think you can't, only in safe mode. Hash set it up that way, I'm pretty sure.

Sent from my DROID3
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
Heres how to do it

First backup and upload to dropbox or backup on external sd

Boot into nonsafe.

Uninstall safestrap

Reboot

Install cwm

Install rom of choice

Reboot

Uninstall cwm

Install safestrap

Reboot into recovery

Toggle into safe system

Install cm9 or whatever rom to safe system

OR

get the modded safestrap that allows you to install under nonsafe.

This is considered sorta dangerous tho. Above method is probably better for you
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
If you use thetweaked, im pretty sure you need to modify the updater script to flash /systemorig, otherwise it will still flash the safemode
[Motorola Droid 3] haztv:
Ok I'm about to try your first method now, I was removing safestrap while I was in safe mode then installing cwm rebooting uninstalling cwm reinstalling safestrap and then trying to boot the rom maybe I need to do like you said and try from non safe and flash the rom in cwm before removing. Ill be back with my results. Thank you
