Heh, I'm in New Iberia, LA and it's just like Waco. At least the part I'm in lol. Glad to hear that in the tiny little ****holes, there is still hope for reception! Thanks for the listing of roms. I'll go have myself a little peek at them and see what's what. Hopefully the "certified like new" doesn't mean "it works, yet it's all discombobulated from people screwing with it before" lol.

Edit: I'm looking at your ROM dp and it looks pretty nice. So I'm guessing that since there is CWM recovery, that you can just flash a ROM like on the DInc and the DInc2 by going into CWM and installing from zip, correct?

Edit 2: I was also looking around, it seems there are 2 versions of the Droid 3? Or am I just losing my mind? lol
[Motorola Droid 3] Savior057:
Hrm... 2 versions? There are three models: The XT883 comes from China, the XT862 is Verizon ONLY in the USA (Can never be used on any other provider in the USA even if unlocked), and the XT860 from Bell Mobility Canada, which will work on any network in North America if unlocked as far as I know (this is what I have on AT&T).
[Motorola Droid 3] digitalsynner85:
Glad you knew what I meant lol. That was the answer I was looking for :P. I was thinking models but said versions. Thanks for that answer haha.
[Motorola Droid 3] dpwhitty11:
What he said previously, lol. Bu tyeah, Tehere are three models out there. CT862 (verizon droid 3), XT860 (bell/canada), and XT883 (i think) for china/asia. idk, im drubnk outt amy mind, lol.

But ywes, it works exactly like cwm did on our old Incs, just flash things like noraml in cwm. but makes sure to always have a currwnt bacjup just in case. And also, aftet installing a rom, ALWAYS go back into your bootstrap app and tap/click/press "bootstrap recovery" to reinstall recovery. cuz when you flash a rom, it breqaks 2nd init. So you need to reflash recovery each time you flash a rom.
[Motorola Droid 3] digitalsynner85:
Ok, I guess you answered my next few questions then haha. So steps are to 1-click-root then reboot. Flash your rom like normal and then upon rebooting, I'd go into bootstrap and flash recovery again, correct? Is that bootstrap app thing included in all the roms releases or do I just keep a copy of it on my computer and just transfer it to my phone after every flash?

Also, if after flashing a ROM, my phone encounters a bootloop, what do I do? Can I still access the recovery in some fashion to flash my nandbackup or will I have to do extra things to fix it?
[Motorola Droid 3] The Solutor:
Actually the known models are four:

Two droid 3/global phones

XT862 (verizon)

XT883 (china telecom)

And two Milestone 3/GSM only phones

XT860 (bell canada)

ME863 (Chiina Unicom)
[Motorola Droid 3] digitalsynner85:
Interesting. I guess the Chinese love knocking off a good phone lol. Has anyone had the issues of the slider mechanism either going out or going bad and it creating a really bad "grinding" feeling when you slide it up or have had it loosen up so that when you hold it horizontal it just slides down automatically w/ no effort on your part or had it loosen up so that the keyboard feels like its about to come loose from the device altogether?
[Motorola Droid 3] The Solutor:
I had the MS1 for almost one year, and although te mechanism was not pleasant like the ones seen on the Europeans phones (because not assisted) it was robust enough, on D3 is the same if not better: not assisted, not silky, but robust and not loose.
[Motorola Droid 3] dpwhitty11:
Well, the way ROMs work on the d3, you keep all your apps and data when you flash something. So you only need to install the bootstrap app once, but you still need to open the app and reinstall the recovery each time.

If you bootloop immediately after flashing a rom, you probably have to SBF (unless you're bootlooping because of a metamorph and you were able to reinstall the recovery). Check out the dev section for the SBF, im posting from my phone atm so I can't link you.
[Motorola Droid 3] digitalsynner85:
Thanks for clarifying. Sorry if I'm asking n00b-ish questions. I just want to cover all my bases before I get knee deep and I wind up bootlooping it or bricking it lol.
[Motorola Droid 3] The Solutor:
If the sbf are available (they are) is almost impossible to brick (in an unrecoverable way) a motorola phone, because the locked bootloader.
[Motorola Droid 3] Camspanners:
Don't forget narcotICS!

EDIT: There's also a link in the development section to Liberty, hosted on rootzwiki

I was looking at the narcotICS one. I couldn't get the pic to load of it, but it sounds like a solid rom so far
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxx4rch4ng3lxxx:
Alright, so I've seen this error before and done plenty of searches and tutorials, and here is where I'm left off:

I have an HTC Thunderbolt and I was getting tired of Das BAMF RC 4.9, so first I wanted to flash BAMF's SoaB to check Sense 3.5, but the OS felt laggy even after waiting for everything to update. So from that point forward I was gonna go with CM7, but it wouldn't flash. I tried both versions in the XDA forums, and no luck, always got the (bad) and then installation aborted.

I flashed the RUU and figured I'd update Verizon's OTAs and then root again. (mistake I'm sure). I had to follow a new root process from the Windows side of my Macbook Pro. The root went fine, but once again, nothing I had downloaded would flash. After finishing a wipe and rebooting, my screen popped up to the infamous "security warning".

Seeing guides online I attempted to flash:

-my original MR1 RUU

-AndroidPolice_PG05IMG_Mecha_2-1.11.605.3

-AndroidPolice_PG05IMG_Mecha_2-2.11.605.3

-AndroidPolice_PG05IMG_Mecha_2-3.11.605.3

No dice, it would get to "checking PG05IMG.zip", load up, then return to main screen. Unplugging the TBolt made the ***Security Warning*** go away, but still no RUU's would flash. So here I am, none of the RUU's, old or new, will flash to my device and it won't boot to anything but hboot.

Fixing would be nice to grab money for it, but at this point, I'm thinking about waiting for Galaxy Nexus. Any suggestions?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2k10MBC300SPT:
First of, Am terribly sorry about your ordeal. secondly, I am unable to comment on a possible fix for resolving your issue. Since you did state that you're waiting for the GNexus to come out, May I suggest checking out this site for "possibly" the Baddest android to come out maybe early next month..Check out this site (http://www.releasedates.co/product/motorola-droid-razr-release-date-0)..Again, sorry about your issue. RUUs scare the crap out of me and I keep my distance!! I rooted correctly the first time around and that was scary enough. Hope it all works out for you. PM a "Known" dev within TB's forums and am sure you'll get a quicker answer rather than waiting for one to discover your Thread:)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxx4rch4ng3lxxx:
Thank you for the condolences. lol.

I looked at the RAZR a bit, but I with my current fiasco, I don't really want to root for a while (because I just don't need it), I'm super stoked for ICS, and the Nexus is supposedly nearly bloatware-free. Given that RAZR is such a running Verizon name, I almost expect it to have even more Bloatware out of the box, and the Bionic hype, release, and quick fall from grace makes me a little leery of Motorola right now. I figure I had a MotoDroid X, then an HTC TBolt, so now I'll give Samsung a shot. But I suppose someone may attempt to sell me on the RAZR, so I say "give it your best shot".
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2k10MBC300SPT:
Great minds do think a like and Am not completely sold on it yet either.. for most of the reasons you've stated. The specs however, are given me "Tunnel" vision though and I hope I can wait till the first batch and any major issues get ironed out before my "Non Patient" self decides to get it..Bionic was definitely a "BIG" hype and I personally didn't even think of getting it and I don't regret one bit getting my TB. Am kinda a sense guy but CM7's latest got me trippin now cuz I've got it setup so damn nice and its Blazing Fast and smooth:) ..I guess I didn't do a good job selling you on DR and I wouldn't try it cause that would be "Hypocritical" of me..LOL
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxx4rch4ng3lxxx:
Haha, don't worry. I've got the "tunnel vision" for the GN. I heard the words "ICS" "Bloatware-free" and "Dual-core optimized" and I was sold. You seem like you know your technology very well. Don't suppose you have a Google+ I could add you on?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2k10MBC300SPT:

Unfortunately, those were the first two RUU's I attempted to flash :/ no dice
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thepolishguy:
You said you flashed an ruu and then gained root.

1. Which ruu did you flash?

2. And which root method did you use?

3. When you boot into bootloader does it say locked or unlocked?

4. And which bootloader version does it show?

5. Are all your root applications working?

I'll attempt to answer the questions as best I can:

5. I cannot boot into Android, so I can't really answer that last question.

((sorry about the links))
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baronmxc:
Is there anyway you can hit me up on chat somewhere. You have the bootloader used before the phone was released 0.95.0000. This is why you are getting the security warning. The released version was 1.04.0000. From my understanding, you are not supposed to downgrade the bootloader lower than that released version. PM me your IM info and I'll gladly try to help you.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tq745:
i'm just trying to make sure that something isn't wrong with my phone. for example i can have my phone plugged in, then when i turn it off it goes directly into download mode. in order to get it out of download mode i have to take out the battery. then while its off i plug it in to charge and then it goes into download mode once again. so basically i cannot charge my phone while it's off because it will go into download mode. i don't like leaving my phone on overnight and i usually charge it while i sleep. i've never had this kind of problem with any of my other phones before.

Same issue here, and yes I am rooted. Did not realize it, but it does appear to be going into download mode when plugged in.

How do you know if you have a B verses AB cable. Sometime I will use my LG G2x USB cable, which appears to be a B cable and it just happened. Is the Samsung cable that comes with the phone an AB cable?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] knickfan5745:
Well this actually the same way I deduced it.

My g2x cables say "B" on them, and always cause the GSII to go into download mode. So I assume the Samsung cable is an AB cable. The g2x cable also does not work for USB storage mode on my SII.

Its been 2 years now and I still love my HD2 , i spend more time using android on it now but I love the fact i can install wm6.5 , android and wp7 etc

battery life has always been an issue but the main problem has been signal (due to o2 uk) which means its time for me to switch provider and most likely get a new phone .. has anyone got any suggestions for a phone that will not make me miss my hd2 ?
[HD2 General] drakepayton:
Well...

As far as being able to run multiple OS's I think the HD2 is the last of it's kind :( (the first of it's kind for that matter:rolleyes:). But for me I am loving WP7 Mango so I'm looking forward to a WP7 to come out on T-Mo USA. When i get one I'll just use my trusty Leo for Android :). If you're looking for an Android phone i think the HTC Ruby is the best IMO and will probably get ICS sometime in the future.

Yes the Galaxy Nexus looks a good device, except no SD card slot & Android 4.0 is looking to have some interesting new inbuilt useful features & about time UI changes.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pnw:
Could someone explain the difference between SDK ports and normal roms? I had never heard of a SDK port till a few days ago when ICS came out.

Thanks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
The Android SDK is the Software Development Kit.

Its what most people install to get adb drivers etc. It isnt really for that, its for software development (duh).

The development kit has an emulator so you can run your applications in an android like environment on a PC. So if you develop a gingerbread application, from the sdk you choose to test it in the gingerbread emulator on your pc. Obviously the SDK has been updated for the ICS ROM, so now people can test their apps on ICS.

Because it is an emulator it is generic (i.e not for any device) which means it has no hardware drivers, device specific... anything. Also it is optimised for the PC so it wont necessarily have touch screen. It often has a mouse pointer as most pcs are not touch screen

These early sdk ports usually wont work entirely on a device. When the source code comes out, it will be better.##

AOSP Roms are built from this source. The code is downloaded to an individuals Linux PC and compiled using specific build tools. Any additions to a rom will be done by adding the code to the (literally) thousands of source code files and compiling. This is a true rom.

We also have sense roms which are not compiled from source code. These are created from RUU's and usually extracted in the dsixda kitchen. As to how they port these to other devices, I cannot answer.
