[Motorola Droid Bionic] Deodexed:
This is an amazing hack by Hashcode! He built a hack to load CM7 on the Droid 3 that will also work on the Droid Bionic! I tested it on the Droid Bionic today and it worked! (ya I am crazy)

Now you need to note that this is in the begining stages, but with us Devs teaming up, this can be great!

Thanks to Hashcode and of course Cyanogenmod team!

Also thanks to Droidtheroy for his rom that was featured in the begining of this video! =)

Nice!:))
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jgrimberg1979:
Sweet! Just when I thought development for the bionic was slowing down!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] necroscopev:
Mind giving us updates as you roll with it?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dotson817:
Yeah can we at least get an alpha build:) Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda premium
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nosit1:
What is performance like (for both this current working version and the D3)?

What's currently broken in this one?

Just curious, I know this isn't a stable release. More wondering into the generals about it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ElektroPimp:
This is the excitement I've needed lately. I've been reading the hype on the galaxy nexus and razr which have been eclipsing our new bionics. I know that's just how it seems to me, in reality its the bootloader that its slowing the development and further excitement. Cyanogen was stellar on my OG Droid. Koush rules!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] zetsumeikuro:
I assume there probably will be no data atm? Dat RIL issue.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] BFirebird101:
Definitely will be following this. Switched from reblurred to liberty, and when this becomes stable, which I'm sure will take no time at all, I'll flash this. But I thought there was a developer already working on a cm7 for the bionic? Has been for a while I think
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Sjflowerhorn:
Yeah, Cvps from what i understand has it booting up but havent heard much else
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ROB281:
The last update from him was well over a month ago, I feel like a lot of people got took when they gave their money to get him the bionic
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ak110707:
Have faith! Cvps is a good dev. He's got a lot on his plate, including med school I believe. Remember rule 1 of cyanogenmod... don't ask about ETAs. He will release it when its ready.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Rockwell22:
Yea what ^ he said even if it takes two years
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Dxun:
I don't think anyone in this section of the forums will have a bionic in 2 years. I'm already looking for my next phone.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cellzealot:
The point is you should never donate to anyone expecting anything in return, ever...it's that simple.

There are plenty of so called devs out there who are completely undeserving of anyone's donations, but CVPCS is not one of them.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
ThatDudeButch comes to mind. I read his response to the x2 people on Rootz and will never run one of his ROMs on principle. Even if it's the hottest thing out.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] GulMiguel:
I'm greatly appreciative of your comments mistawolfe. I was a victim of TDB with the X2 promises. After two months of waiting and very little progress on the X2 anywhere else, I gave up and threw in the towel. That was my lesson -- money wasted. I now own a Bionic and I can't be happier. And now, when I donate, it's to sites like MDW, Rootzwiki, DL and here. At least that way, I have a reasonable expectation that my money is going to good uses. I live for forums like these and I will do all that I can to help them thrive. I was just very touched and happy to hear that someone else identified with my pain. Thanks again.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
I was already gone from my x2 when I stumbled across the Rootz thread. It's funny, Butch starts out all nice and open to the other members, then as soon as he gets the phone he changes tone. I'm in sales, so we call that the old "bait and switch" - By the end of it he was just downright nasty - probably crushed many people. I sat and read the whole thread one day and was just disgusted.

I'm not saying he should have given them a blow by blow on a daily basis, but if you read the thread from start to finish you'll see what I'm talking about. Absolutely no respect for that guy - ZILCH.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] hitman_dreams:
So this is using another bootloader? If that's the case custom kernels would be available through this bootloader right?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
No. Still locked.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Rockwell22:
Just loved this not bad progress is coming along very nice alot of fc but nice to see this on here
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Sjflowerhorn:
Hows progress anything a fellow can do to help.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] idle0095:
Does anyone know if this is coming to the bionic?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jaynyc22:
Safestrap 1.0 will be out for bionic
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Gossett:
I am super psyched!! I am set up with Git but don't know how to find or download the cm7. Any help is greatly appriciated
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Gossett:
actually I got it but..

Do I have to do a factory wipe/cache wipe every time I boot into 'safe mode' to load this? It worked the first time. I tried just rebooting, going and enabling safe mode and it just sits there
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Hashcode:
Hello Gossett,

You should not have to wipe data/cache everytime you want to go to Safe Mode. Just the first time when you're installing it. Normally, the toggle will take care of everything after that.

There can be several reasons why you get the black screen when swapping to Safe Mode:

- Using the "QUICK" toggle to goto the "non-safe" system will skip the part of the toggle where your /data gets "stashed" for the next time you need Safe Mode.

- If you're in Safe Mode, you could try to format /system and re-apply the CM7 .zip. Just in case it was mangled some how or you had a full internal emmc when you toggled over.

- If that doesn't work try to wipe data/cache and see if you can boot in.

Always try and keep a gig or so free on the internal card for the stashed data when toggling back and forth. It only keeps 1 set of stashed data for each system, but it can add up depending on the # of apps you have installed.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] :
I noticed I couldn't get the market at all on this rom...is that also unfinished or did I screw up?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] quentin0:
Like all cyanogenmod roms, google apps are packaged separate.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] papi92:
Hi here is a ril. It's untested but should give you 4g. It's courtesy of the great p3droid. http://db.tt/Kk0bLo6E
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Sjflowerhorn:
Downloading now, shopping at baby's-r-us for my clone, then testing when I return home. Thanks for the "hand off".
[Motorola Droid Bionic] papi92:
I'd build it but I'm on bus on my way home from my football game. Athlete nerds ftw

[Motorola Droid Bionic] ffejeroni:
Was there any luck with the 4G?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ROB281:
not yet, there still working on it though
[Motorola Droid Bionic] areghas:
I couldn't even get 3g to work. Or my internal SD card. External SD card worked fine. So did wifi.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] bigeddthemonk:
3g and internal sd are two of the main issues still, did you read the op? 4g is still unconfirmed although I've been seeing alot of references to p3's 4g fix but still no word either way so it's probubly not functional yet.

Here's an install video I've made for CM7. It's my first android vid, so bare with me.

hope it helps and lmk what you think.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] joshw0000:
I just read through this thread and watched both videos. I can't wait for a fully functional CM7 build. Until then, does anyone use this to dual boot Bionic roms? I don't fully understand how this is working but I'll throw this out and someone set me straight:

Basically, safe strap is booting in front of bootstrap. If you initiate it (with menu), you'll boot to a different recovery with the option to boot from the SD card? I understand how to do it from the videos just not exactly how it works.

I'm also curious to know how well roms run from the SD? Lag, data drops, etc?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] :
I have had this for about 48 hours now (the bionic) and I must say, it's simple to get lost in all of the information surrounding this very topic...

I'll make it simple though, to eliminate doubt and fear:

Go to hash codes site (google) for install instructions, it's a matter of installing an apk, using it to install recovery, rebooting, hitting the menu button, then it's just a souped up version of CWM.

From there, nandroid original, switch to "safe" mode. Safe means the system is safe to flash without messing up the original, flash away at that point... if you disable the safe system, you boot into stock.

Word of advice... flash your update first. Get back to stock, root, flash the update via stock recovery (easier), the zip for the new 5.7.893 OTA is floating around in general, make sure blurcamera and zumo are in preinstall folder on the root of your internal SD card.

Proceed to install safestrap, flash your new rom and ENJOY!

That's the "jist".

I've noticed no lag. It's very quick and responsive, just not an OC/UV Kernel, obviously and it's a "workaround", although I'm starting to prefer it...

If you search on google, you can find a person on another forum by the name of dhacker29 (google it, trust me) and you'll see he's working on ICS as we speak... he just lacks data to have a beta build... built from CM9 source too!

Happy Flashing.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] joshw0000:
Thanks for the quick response. That's pretty much what I had in mind. Why the recommendation to flash the leaked blur? I personally don't like blur. I've had the phone for 24 hours. Within 8, I'd already flashed Liberty to get rid of as much Blur as possible.

Can't wait for ICS! Even with a locked bootloader, there are some awesome devs for Motorola phones. I wasn't even going to get a Bionic until I saw that kejar and jrummy were brewing some Liberty.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] :
it was more of a "if you want the update" thing... it's "OTA" now officially if you didn't have it before...

It's said to improve battery and decrease data drops is the only real reason, but it's easier to start over now then get things setup and have to revert... etc...

I'm not utilizing traditional voice/sms (google voice kiddie here) so I can use any wifi device I want... I dumped the EVO 4G immediately when I saw this was getting official ICS, lol. I phonedogged it though... this was the clear winner over the Tbolt even with all of it's goodies so far... I bet we see an unlocked bootloader someday... I'm optimistic :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] joshw0000:
That's odd. I checked for an OTA last night before rooting and nothing was there. Coming from a T-Bolt myself, I'll miss Sense but this thing is clearly faster. I can't wait for my extended battery to come in. 2.5 hours off the charger and I've got 49% battery...that's worse than the T-Bolt.

I got a GVoice myself. I only use it for Craigslist or when I run out of minutes (Groove IP).
[Motorola Droid Bionic] :
nice! I'm running gv/grooveip full-time now. $50/mo. Hotspot sim in my phone = Baller status. lol.

I think the OTA should have rolled out for everyone by now... i didn't use cheesecake. You can grab it in the general thread though, i know one of those guys uploaded it. It's official so you'll still be on the update path.

also, it's great to have active dialogue here, i'm trying not to completely jump ship to the other forum... lol
[Motorola Droid Bionic] joshw0000:
PM'ed you. Wana learn more about this hotspot sim.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] joshw0000:
Back on subject...anyone flashed the Droid 3 CM9/ICS build yet??
[Motorola Droid Bionic] :
isn't that kanged from our build? we aren't able to flash the droid 3 rom to our device are we?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] joshw0000:
I have seen any ICS builds for the Bionic yet. I figured since we're able to flash the Droid 3 CM7 from sd, maybe we can flash ICS as well.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] joshw0000:
HOLY ****!!! IT WORKED!!! I just booted Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.1 on my Bionic and it seems smooth!!!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] joshw0000:
I just made a test call to my wife. So far, can't get data or wifi but this is awesome!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] joshw0000:
LMFAO...There's an alpha build for the Bionic. I feel dumb.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
I flashed the D3 build and it booted fine.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Hashcode:
Minor FYI, the Droid 3 ICS build isn't kanged from the Bionic build. In many ways it's the opposite.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] :
Right after I posted that I felt dumb, i hadn't even really investigated before asking lol. I nubbed it, but nevertheless, thank you for the answer on it. I keep forgetting to look at the similarities to the d3 and bionic and all that, just haven't had time since i got this a few days ago. I'm so ready for cm for this phone to be fully operational!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Wetzel402:
Any new word on CM7/9? I am excited to give a beta build some testing. :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] crking1980:
Na it seems like eclipse and dhackers cm/ics build is the only thing left for this device. Seems like we are forgotten :(
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Wetzel402:
Sad day :( Hopefully we see some love. Last I heard the alpha build had full data connectivity. Seems like a lot of work to just scrap.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] smokedkill:
It seems like some rom developers have become like apple fanboys to me. I hope I'm wrong.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] crking1980:
Lol what do you mean by that

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Im a little confused. I dont own a Xoom by the way but am looking to buy one. Anyways, if the source code for honeycomb was never released, how did you guys make custom Roms and Kernels?

Whooo! (Cole Voice...)
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshndroid:
a little bit of reverse engineering can occur with the standard motorola files... or motorola source (just a guess with that last one)...

source generally refers to google actually putting out source... the way it was intended before other manufacturers do their own mods then the devs would build the entire thing from source it takes a significant amount of work i can assume from source because it cant just be compiled and installed u need to mod drivers/libs etc to work with the specific device... but the end result can allow for better mods to be made...

the way it is now though its still alot of work because they are playing with alot of guess work i can assume and need ALOT of knowledge to give us what they have

Hey, how do you know that is to get a Galaxy Nexus? it says "sign up to get the latest on the galaxy nexus"...
[Vibrant General] MailenJokerbell:
That is to get the latest news, not the actual device.
[Vibrant General] kolyan:
They wanna know how many people are interested and on which carries
[Vibrant General] SeanFloyd:
Yeah, I don't think that exactly equates to "SIGN UP HERE FOR GALAXY NEXUS ON T-MOBILE". We have no clue how long of a wait there will be between it launching on Verizon and then T-Mobile later.
[Vibrant General] SamsungVibrant:
Samsung already confirmed via Facebook that Nexus is Verizon exclusive for now

Incase you guys missed it, Samsung already confirmed on Facebook that Galaxy Nexus for the time being will be a Verizon Exclusive.

Doesn't mean it won't come to other carriers at a later time, but initial release is exclusive to Verizon.

This was confirmed by "Samsung Janel."

I would say still sign up on that page and choose T-Mobile. Let them know there is a strong interest from T-Mobile customers to recieve the Galaxy Nexus.
[Vibrant General] SeanFloyd:
That statement was retracted, read http://www.mobiledia.com/news/113170.html .
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] magnumtripod:
There was a thread a week or 2 ago where someone emailed Otterbox about the SGII Epic Touch and they said they didn't have the phone in hand, so they didn't design the case. That being said, I'd assume it would be just a matter of time before they got in gear and put their noses to the grindstone.

So now I see they already have a case for the new iPhone 4s. Are they just going to completely overlook the SGII Epic Touch? This upsets me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ranger093:
The 4s is the same exact phone as the 4 as far as design goes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SpaceMonky:
just wait for trident to release their case next month. way better than an otterbox.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdefran:
Trident is definitely making a case? Any idea which one?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SpaceMonky:
definitely are.

right now it is scheduled for sometime in november and to be an aegis case.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bigjim1488:
They don't make the sexiest cases but they get the job done
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SpaceMonky:
all i know is when i had my evo, the otterbox failed to deliver. everyone i know that bought the highly awaited defender case was sorely disappointed.

meanwhile, my trident cyclops case took a beating and kept going. when i finally sold my evo, it was in mint condition.

otterbox may get the job done, but trident does it cheaper and better.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kynetx:
Otterbox's excuse is a load of crap. Third-party accessory makers have access to prototype shells long in advance of a device's release.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] _MetalHead_:
Otterbox has the single most overrated cases out there. They used to have decent iPhone cases but they have gone downhill dramatically in the past year. I had all of their EVO 4G cases, the impact was crap, the commuter was OK, and the defender flat out SUCKED.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] magnumtripod:
Will stay tuned then. I'm sure there will be a few threads about

EDIT: Oh lawd some of those Trident cases look amazing! I hope they don't disappoint with the Epic Touch case. I'll buy one for sure
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] trickshot1126:
Otterbox took a gamble with the 4S case and it proved the smart choice. Most everyone was expectinga radically changed iphone and waited to see what to make new cases for. Otterbox's gamble paid off for them and retailers that carry their brand. Hopefully someone releases a good holster/case for the epic touch sooner rather than later! I hate carrying in the pocket. But until a better option comes out it's the safest place.

[Nexus One General] cred05:
I'm hoping this means that it will indeed come to T-Mobile. Wonder if it's just a way for them to see how much interest there is from each network to see if it's worthwhile bringing it to that carrier?
[Nexus One General] Namuna:
I don't see why they wouldn't bring it to TMo, their last 2 Nexus' did.

...Heck, they damned well BETTER bring it to TMo! I'm looking to upgrade my TMo N1 to TMo N3. TMo still has the cheapest rate plans out there!
[Nexus One General] Eesti:
I thought the Galaxy Nexus was a pentaband phone so it would work on both AT&T and TMobile's 3g/4g in the US. So there would only be 2 version of it - GSM (AT&T/Tmobile) and the CDMA
[Nexus One General] kolyan:
well signing up might just increase the chance to get this on Tmo. I would hate to switch to verizon :)
[Nexus One General] crachel:
I believe that is correct, a GSM version that supports AT&T/TMobile has already passed the FCC. I feel certain it will be offered officially by Google, but if not, Negri and other outlets will most certainly have it.
[Nexus One General] kolyan:
would like it to be on tmobile.....i cant afford $500-600 bucks for new phone, i would rather get a contract and pay $200-250
[Nexus One General] cymru:
Useful how the UK Samsung website has not a single mention of the Galaxy Nexus
[Nexus One General] danger-rat:
False economy.

The T-Mo non-contact deals are around $20 less per month than the contract ones. That's $480 over 2 years...
[Nexus One General] ksc6000:
I'm wondering if its smart to get a tmobile phone as the carrier might disappear in a short time. Either by att buying them and our 3g bands becoming useless (would you really want to have a nexus that's 2g capable only? ) or by implosion. Also those us us lucky enough to still be on the 10 dollars a month data plan....I don't know it I can justify having to pay $240 more for data every year...
[Nexus One General] cred05:
It's not going to just disappear. It will work just as always, and you will be grandfathered in on your plan.
[Nexus One General] currentsupply:
Trying to decide if I should stay with T-mobile

I'm trying to decide if I should switch to the $49/month family plan.

I would save money, but I don't want to commit to T-mobile until the plans for the Galaxy Nexus are announced.

Is Google going to have a US launch for this Device or is a Carrier? Or both.

I am really annoyed at Google for launching the Nexus phone, but not in America.

I might just stay with the Nexus One and not upgrade the phone for another year, it works great.
[Nexus One General] resinous:
$49.99 a month, but you're restricted to 200MB of data per month LOL.
[Nexus One General] waylo:
Not correct. If you obtain a T-Mobile branded phone, a newer android for instance, T-Mobile will make you upgrade to their new android data plan, no matter where you got it from. This is true for the old t-zones data plan and their web2go plans. So an international version, or an ATT version with tmob frequencies, would be more ideal.

There's a list of allowed phones over on the howardforums... Search for t-zones grandfathered plan.

I'm actually hoping T-Mobile doesn't sell these directly, because any imei of a phone they sell will be logged, and these two specific old data plans won't apply. But those of us with these old data plans are pretty rare.
[Nexus One General] paesan:
That is exactly what I did. I paid the full $529 for the N1. With the $20/month savings = $480. The difference between the contract price of the phone $200 and full price = $329. Taking the $480 savings over the 2 years, subtract from $329 and I saved $151. Buying the phone full price was a better value than buying it with a contract. I know it seems like a lot at first but it saves money in the long run.
[Nexus One General] kolyan:
never looked....will check it out.
[Nexus One General] danger-rat:
Now here's a twist that I did with my wife's phone...

Buy phone on contract for $200. Cancel the contract and pay the $200 ETF. You then pay $400 total for the phone instead of $530, and still get the $480 savings over 2 years... xD
