Well, since this is beta and we are all technically beta testers, I thought I'd post a few little bugs and/or annoyances. not sure if they've been mentioned yet.

- In Trebuchet, even when "scroll wallpaper:" is selected, the wallpaper doesn't scroll.

- Am I supposed to be able to open the dock and icons menus for Trebuchet? because I can't.

- I have a flashlight app that works for this phone. it's just called "flashlight". I like to use a 1X1 widget to operate it, so that I have fast light when I need it. On ICS/CM9 when you hit the widget, it does turn on the light, but then it locks up the homescreen. Launcher completely stops responding, until you hit home button, then you can swipe around and turn off the light.

- The keyboard backlight and home/back/menu/search button lights seem to have a mind of their own as far as when they turn on. I can be sitting in darkness and they will not light up. I've had other roms with this problem, and I've solved it simply by closing the keyboard, locking the screen, unlocking, and reopening the keyboard. But that doesn't work here.

As for Trebuchet, it has promise and I have no doubt that the devs have the capability to make this the slickest launcher ever, but for now I have it neck and neck with ADW EX. Here's how I score it:

- Homekey to preview all your pages: +2 for ADW

- Ability to choose random transition instead of just committing to one: +1 for ADW

- More functional dock: +1 for ADW

- Better drawer (in particular the continuous scroll down): +1 for ADW

- Can change settings for icons and dock: +2 for ADW

- A bit more pleasing to the eye: +1 for Trebuchet

- Persistent search bar: +1 for Trebuchet (though the search button does this anyway)

- Awesome widget menu in drawer: +5 for Trebuchet (this is the only substantial difference in favour of either launcher)

So I went with Trebuchet because it was "packaged" in and didn't require another installed app. But it would be nice if more features/options were added here. Features/options are what CM is all about!

Battery life: maybe it's not great, but it's sure great compared to what I was coming from. I used 66% in 7.5 hours, all at dim screem, and according to the battery stats, WIFI was on the whole time and the screen was on 45% of the time. That would have killed my D2G running Apex ROM, no question. Plus I have a slim 1900 mAh battery coming so I'm looking at even better things.

The fact that this system has great things hardwired in, and is just better hardware, has allowed me to jettison widgetzoid, battery level, watchdog lite, 3g watchdog, and juice defender.

A fantastic Rom, and no doubt the major issues will be fixed in time (bluetooth loss of audio, video camera, video play). In the meantime, I am happy to live without them.

All you have to do is flash the nightly zip,(I also recommend flashing GoogleApps) and reboot. If you want more detail google the difference between wiping data, cache, and dalvik cache ... I think I spelled the last one right, its under the advanced menu of recovery. Search this forum and read before you use anything besides hash's safestrap as I have heard of inconsistent results. Fyi I am on 3/23 or so and have no issues. Like everyone says only issue really left is hw acceleration/video codec funtionality. Daily driver since Jan.
[Motorola Droid 3] Ozguitar67:
I decided to look after my last update removed my gapps. I found that the last nightly I installed has a command to delete everything in the system directory as part of the install. So you would lose any apps in there and anything in the CM9 /system will be installed from the zip file. So you will have to flash gapps again. I believe everything in your /data directory should be fine. I don't remember for sure though; that stuff wasn't as important to me.

Bug: I have brightness control on the power widget, and I have dim and 100% as the only two settings. Also have the dropdown set to pull back up when toggling something on the power widget. When I hit the brightness toggle it never works the first time. I have to drag down again, then toggle again. Then it will work over and over again. Just not the first time.

Anyone have a trick for installing the motoFMradio.apk? Iv got the package but when I try to install it just says package not installed and doesn't really give me a reason why. I know it works on this phone as I used it on steel droid but is there something missing in this rom that it won't work?
[Motorola Droid 3] Ozguitar67:
I thought I saw posts saying that the FM radio does not work for this ROM previously, but it's not a function I use so I'm not sure but...depending on where it goes you can make it work.

If it goes in /data/app/ you need to change it's properties to owner: system and group: system and its permissions to rw-r--r--

If it goes in /system/app/ you need to change it's properties to owner: root and group: root and its permissions to rw-r--r--

Move it to the appropriate folder and then reboot. It should show up in your app drawer

Oh, I don't think you can change the properties/permissions from the SD card, so you have to move the file to your phone somewhere...I used the /tmp/ directory for system apps. Data apps can be modified in that directory
[Motorola Droid 3] boazal:
from my (private) experience ' motoFMradio.apk' not compatible with ICS....
[Motorola Droid 3] seventieslord:
So what's the deal with the "locked bootloader" this phone supposedly has? After installing aokp and cm9 with little to no issues, plus a radio patch, I have to ask - what is this locked bootloader even preventing us from doing?
[Motorola Droid 3] SithDagger:
Custom kernals for overclocking and undervolting.

That was the main thing I was concerned with at least.

[Motorola Droid 3] slayer621:
If we had an unlocked bootloader, it would be infinitely easier to make custom ROMs. It took months for the camera to actually work on CM9 Droid 3, if we had an unlocked bootloader, Hash would have had it done in hours.

Haha, overclocking would be easier too! Hashcode please reply to my TALK!

[Motorola Droid 3] lakehousetech:
I decided to try out the beta (March 16th) last night and the phone was stuck at the boot image permanently. I was unable to get the phone back into recovery so I flashed the phone back to stock with the spf.

Before installing the beta zip and gapps thereafter I did a full wipe in clockwork, and formatted system partition. I've installed the alpha's successfully in the past, so I'm not sure if something has changed with the zips. I used the 'Droid 3 Recovery Boostrap' from the market to reboot into recovery....etc. Anybody have any suggestions? Thanks!

Note: I'm on Verizon.
[Motorola Droid 3] seventieslord:
Hope this doesn't appear like the bugs are just piling up, because this really is a great rom. But one thing I have noticed is that the "select input method" notification frequently shows up in the top left corner. I have installed swype, enabled it and disabled the stock keyboard, and have had no problems using swype or the physical keyboard. But this thing keeps popping up, seemingly randomly, and even if I reiterate that I want to use swype, it usually hangs around longer, then it will go away later when I'm not watching for it.

file this one under "minor annoyances".
[Motorola Droid 3] slayer621:
This is fixable here
[Motorola Droid 3] seventieslord:
Strangely.... I have neither of those files.

Searched the whole phone with root explorer.
[Motorola Droid 3] slayer621:
Yeah I just checked my phone and they weren't there either. I'm not that bothered by it so I don't really care. But the problem is that Google is trying to move away from the whole "long press" thing. If you are using a third-party keyboard, you have to uninstall ALL other keyboards, including the system keyboard.
[Motorola Droid 3] jediman:
Use safestrap from hashes site. Cwm for d3 is broken

Awesome! Thanks for the suggestion!

[Motorola Droid 3] pm2gonzales:
You have to make a few changes to build.prop so not as it is. This is posted in the 2nd post in the thread for other things as well. I should note, if you're doing this and having issues, boot without your sim card for the first boot. Make the changes to build.prop, then reboot with the sim card in.

wonderfull rom

i installed, it worked perfectly with safestrap...but i want to use it as the main rom...and if a install it with CWM recovery..but i get stuck in moto logo.

i hate it when after the Moto Logo i have to wait to start safe system :) and how i have 2 roms on my device...

other types of ICS (like AOSP) works with CWM recovery...

any help..on how to install it for non -safe system?
[Motorola Droid 3] seventieslord:
I am a gsm user. It seems I have absolutely no problem making calls, but when I receive a call, most of the time it comes up as a private number or pay phone, and if it does, I can't hear them and they can't hear me when I answer. This doesn't happen 100% of the time, more like 80, but so far it seems like the call display and sound issues are 100% related.

No, I do not have bluetooth on. That is a separate problem.

---------- Post added at 07:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:28 AM ----------

does anyone know why the last two nightlies say "unofficial"?
[Motorola Droid 3] thingonaspring:
@Sevetieslord

Yeah I've seen the same problem, and I'm on GSM. Bluetooth turned off at all times, I don't use it.

The solution was to remove /system/app/Blue*.apk and reboot.

I've not had the problem since, and I use CM9 as my main rom.

Of course that means all bluetooth functions fail, but for me that's no problem.
[Motorola Droid 3] bogdan_wrc:
i get a lot of ROM CONTROL Force closes... any help?

especially when i check the ENABLE weather option.
[Motorola Droid 3] Ozguitar67:
@Hashcode

Are the nightlies ICS 4.0.4 or 4.0.3? There's conflicting info in the build.prop and I just want to be sure...

ro.build.version.release=4.0.4

vs

ro.build.description=cdma_solana-user 4.0.3_r1 IML74K 20120402 release-keys

ro.build.fingerprint=verizon/solana_vzw/cdma_solana:4.0.3_r1/IML74K/20120402:user/release-keys

This is from the 04/02 nightly
[Motorola Droid 3] adamskub:
Wooow, just upgraded to the latest nightly 4-03 and see the bar is now half, still shows 0dB but for some odd reason half the bars are showing now. I'm not sure if it's always like this (in a bad signal place right now). Would love to have this working!

EDIT: Now I'm in a area that has usually 4 bars, still 2 bars. I'm assuming that something may have changed to make it always 2 bars idk lol
[Motorola Droid 3] danifunker:
I noticed the 0db thing on AOKP after applying the XT860 patch. I noticed this when I went to the April 1 build. At least the signal works though!
[Motorola Droid 3] Mathieu2k4:
On nightly 04/02

Am I the only one who lost the Facebook sync option in the facebook app?

And I noticed the camera is only 5 megapixel in the stock app

So I downloaded ICS Camera from the market wich works good and have 8 megapixel and more options.

XT860
[Motorola Droid 3] seventieslord:
I'm getting this too. hmm, I wonder if this is actually reflecting that my signal sucks (which it does - not the phone or rom's fault) or if this is just a mistake because it always said 4 bars before... or was the 4 bars a mistake?

You don't mean video camera, face recognition, and panorama, do you? I'd be really surprised. I'm going to give this a try.

And does anyone know why these nightlies now say "unofficial"?
[Motorola Droid 3] bogdan_wrc:
yeah..i get that 0 dB signal too :)

when changing to SIGNAL BARS, it shows correctly.
[Motorola Droid 3] Mathieu2k4:
I mean shutter sound switch, storage source, volume keys, jpeg quality,
[Motorola Droid 3] jediman:
So how goes the camera codecs for video?

I am missing out on some moments with my kids w/o video recording.

I am contemplating on jumping back to stock and then Liberty or stock + mods until that's all hashed out (no pun intended). I know Hash has been feverishly working on this but a state of the union update would be great :)

Kang has now been changed to unofficial. Name change to fix confusion as many people didn't understand what kang meant. Or something along those lines. There was an article about it I skimmed somewhere

Has anyone else had trouble receiving MMS with Handcent? I get them with stock messaging then they show up in Handcent, but I can't send/receive via HC.
[Motorola Droid 3] seventieslord:
Also while back I mentioned that the keyboard and "hard" touch buttons weren't lighting up. I would think this is enough of an issue to list in the OP, but since it isn't listed, I'm wondering, am I the only one experiencing this? Or maybe there's a setting in the brightness options I should be fiddling with?
[Motorola Droid 3] The_Joe:
I have also been having this problem.

Please see my post explaining how to fix this here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=24456926&postcount=301
[Motorola Droid 3] ssinisterss:
what about with auto brightness off? in the older alpha versions we were able to get the lights to come on with the brightness set to lowest.
[Motorola Droid 3] The_Joe:
You still could, but auto must technically be on. You can adjust it to always be set at 1 though, which is lower than the slider would allow me to adjust to.

Using the brightness slider seems to nuke the back lights though. Not sure why. Just providing a work around.
[Motorola Droid 3] jediman:
I ended up going back to liberty gb due to btooth and no video.

I miss ics. I know hash and co is busy working things out but I'm wishing he would give us an update on his progress :)

You can wipe cache from inside of the Root Tools app, but it may require a reboot to take effect. Most of those things do.
[Motorola Droid 3] seventieslord:
Awesome, this worked like a charm. I should have known this was because I've always insisted on having a brightness toggle that only goes to 10% and 100%. Considering how important automation is, I should have embraced auto brightness ages ago and I would have never had this problem. I had a lot of fun tweaking these numbers to my own specs. It's no fun that the keyboard and button lights aren't adjustable (they are either on or off, regardless of the value you assign) but oh well.

I've figured out most of these options, but can't seem to figure out what these three do:

- Screen Dim Level: brightness used to dim the screen

- Allow light decrease: enable to allow lights to decrease. Use hysteresis to reduce flicker.

- Decrease hysteresis: sensor levels overlap this much downwards

who knows what they do?
[Motorola Droid 3] seventieslord:
Two bugs/annoyances:

1. I used to have my contacts displayed with facebook photos on my other phones, now they are just blank default pictures. I currently have my contacts in the dialer only displaying my actual "contacts", i.e. people I can see myself ever phoning, even though there are plenty of undisplayed "contacts" in the people app, like celebrities I follow on Twitter and people I 'know' on facebook but don't talk to on the phone. I noticed today that they all have pictures in their contact page on my phone in the "people" app. Literally the only contacts who don't have pictures feeding to them, are my actual "contacts". only one does, and that's because I also follow him on Twitter. What could be causing this weird selectiveness in the display of contact photos?

2. A lot of times I open the hardware keyboard and start to type, but my key presses just open apps. "M", for example, opens messaging. It's like there's some sort of function key held in, but there is no such key that I'm aware of. the Alt key isn't doing it. other hardware keyboards have done stuff like this to me in the past, but a few taps of the supposed stuck function button would solve it. I have no idea which way to go here. In these cases I think only a reboot has fixed it.

2.5. Not a big deal, but half the time the power widget displays 6 widgets at a time, and the other half of the time it seems to space them out more, only fitting four on the screen.
[Motorola Droid 3] Rennert:
2. Type alt+search and the then works the hardware keyboard normally

This app works pretty well for adding Facebook contact photos to your phone contacts in ICS. Also can add Facebook birthdays to your calendar, which is a plus.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mots.haxsync
[Motorola Droid 3] seventieslord:
Dayum! $1 well spent.

so is this a known issue in ICS, and that's why an app exists specifically for it?
[Motorola Droid 3] jfont25:
At least with Facebook contacts. Of course Google+ contacts work perfectly for some mysterious reason. :-)
[Motorola Droid 3] Cheezhead19:
Anyone else notice that since the 4.04 merge, fb doesn't ask to sync contacts at all? I'm back on the last 4.03 nightly for this reason.
[Motorola Droid 3] seventieslord:
Yes. I didn't actually identify when/where it stopped asking, but it did at some point. I remember for sure when I was on 3/16 it asked to sync. Not that it worked. But at least it asked.

If you're having issues, that $1 app was well worth it.

although - if you get used to having those nice contact pics and start getting OCD about having a pic for all your contacts, you'll probably notice the same thing I did - that the "select file" option does not work. You have to use the "take picture" option to actually get it to stick. "select file" does nothing, you use file manager to browse to a file, select it, and then..... nothing.
[Motorola Droid 3] Cheezhead19:
For me on the 3/25 I can get sync to work, I have to add and remove the account a few times to get the pictures to come, but they do work eventually.
[Motorola Droid 3] seventieslord:
Yeah, that's exactly what I thought would work, too, but when I go to "add account" and select facebook, nothing happens, it just goes back to my list of accounts and facebook isn't there. I had to restore my old accounts from TB just to make it stick there.
[Motorola Droid 3] rodre12:
Does anyone know when the newest update will be posted
[Motorola Droid 3] slayer621:
The nightlies are posted....nightly and they offer many improvements. Nothing major, but improvements nevertheless. Hash currently has his hands full. He's developing this, AOKP, as well as things for the Droid 4 and Razr. Give him time, he hasn't forgotten about us :)
