I recall experiencing this issue with the stock software on the Droid 3. I'd go to call someone, and it would ring on their end, but I couldn't hear anything on my end. Phone said call was connected, but no audio in or out.
[Motorola Droid 3] zzandrewst:
I have a question on upgrading to the OTA update 5.7.894 while using this rom. I am currently on 5.5.184 and was wondering if there is any reason to update. Will there be any significant performance enhancements while using cm9/ics alpha? It just seems like a lot of work to do to update especially if there is no big difference while running ics.
[Motorola Droid 3] hemirunner426:
The current ICS builds are based off .894. You may get away with running on older versions, but if you run into problems it is most likely this issue showing its ugly face.

.894 not only has improvements in system software, but also in the kernel and baseband. Both of which we cannot modify. The current kernel is what Hash's ICS build is based off of.

That not absolutely terrible, but its not good either. The higher the number the better the signal with i believe -120dbm being no reception and 0 being the theoretical highest limit.
[Motorola Droid 3] bonesjones:
This is a heavily documented bug, should be better in alpha 6. please see my post about sending hash a logcat when this happens AFTER you start to run alpha 6
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
What changes can we expect in alpha 6 ?
[Motorola Droid 3] digitalsynner85:
Did these changes fix the issue you and I were having w/ TiBu and other applications Jason?

Edit: Nevermind, I seen your post a few posts later saying how you fixed it so TiBu recognizes internal correctly. What app did you use to edit it?
[Motorola Droid 3] daimerion:
I haven't seen this mentioned other than when I mentioned it in the old thread. When starting certain apps (facebook, twitter, myyearbook, even the browser and market) my wifi will shut off and restart interupting the initial connection. Doesn't do it every time though. Its done this to me on every build of ICS.

Hashcode you're Awesome man!
[Motorola Droid 3] VincentDHam:
why not just disable lock screen??
[Motorola Droid 3] JasonOT:
I just used ES File Explorer and its built in text editor.

Make sure to go into settings and check off the two root settings so you can edit system files.
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
The bug is in the vold.fstab. I see it now. Great find.
[Motorola Droid 3] neilrl79:
I get the select input method notification showing up in the statusbar all the time, not that it causes any other issues, just wondering if others are experiencing the same thing.

Alpha4
[Motorola Droid 3] JasonOT:
Which bug?

There's definitely a problem with init.mapphone_cdma.rc and init.mapphone_umts.rc too.
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
I removed the "/emmc" references on purpose. The vold.fstab had leftover mount references for "sdcard and emmc" in the front of those lines.

The main issue bring that ICS/CM9 doesn't have any implementation yet for handling 2 sd cards (that I know of). For Gingerrbead we had "ro.additionalmounts" and/or the Motorola environment var EXTERNAL_ALT_STORAGE (never handled by CM7).

So it's 1 or the other as the primary sd card for now. Both will be mounted, but only 1 will be treated as "SD card". I'm still looking for a good solution.
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
I wonder if this issue started when I swapped from the version 6 apn-confs.xml file to the version 7 format. I could revert to a large file for version 6 to see if that helps out the GSM people with issues.
[Motorola Droid 3] ssinisterss:
i would say if we had to choose to have 1 spot as "sd card" id vote for external.

also, is the multitasking popup window in the rom? i couldnt find it.

This is my opinion of Moto's and Verizon's mentality towards social media...despite the fact that they have social media accounts.

How To Use Twitter For Marketing And PR

Nope. I've done it and it just removes those two languages (Chinese and Japanese IIRC) from the keyboard input methods.
[Motorola Droid 3] Androidsims:
It removes the Chinese and Japanese keyboards from your phones. So then it stops asking you to choose one.
[Motorola Droid 3] phrir1:
Yes, push and hold the home button. Is that the one your looking for?
[Motorola Droid 3] billyhoyle13:
Easy fix, thanks! That was driving me slightly bananas haha
[Motorola Droid 3] ssinisterss:
yep i was getting tired of atk and wanted that swipe to kill ease. repped
[Motorola Droid 3] Diggy1584:
Think it was discovered before but swiping it off the recent app pop-up doesn't kill the app. However there is an option that when you leave a program it will auto kill it for you.

Settings-> developer options -> under app don't keep actives
[Motorola Droid 3] zzandrewst:
That makes perfect sense...I guess I will be updating when Alpha 6 comes out then. Thanks!
[Motorola Droid 3] Willis111:
Lol, this is really the first real test run I've had on ICS. A lot different than just messing around with a phone in the store for a few minutes. Couldn't figure out how to add widgets for the longest time, was thinking the widget picker was broken lol .... I have a pretty simple request for you Hashcode, I was hoping you could just add a few bookmarks to the default in you next release. Was hoping for one here to the droid 3 xda android development forums (or your thread specifically) as well as anywhere else you've published it like rootwiki etc and a link to you website/blog (maybe also even another to your git). Nothing important or big or something that a user can't do quickly themselves but
[Motorola Droid 3] jjhiza:
If you use Google Chrome, the new ICS browser will automatically sync all your bookmarks from there. :) Also, if you want the widget picker back when you long-press the screen, install Nova Launcher... the dev has added that feature back, because so many people requested it. Hope this helps for the time being. :)

[Motorola Droid 3] droidian1441:
Has anybody noticed that Alpha #5 doesn't have the calendar app installed? Or is this apart of the exchange calendar bug?

I forgot but I first noticed when my calendar widget disappeared after reflashing Alpha #5.

I only reflashed because of the bad link problems Hashcode had on his website and I got a mix of #4 and #5. Just alpha #5 screwed my calendar.

I found that when the hard keyboard does its, not working/launching random apps thingy, that its actually the search button that's stuck on. Toggling it once fixes it. Search button + certain keys = launch application is an Android feature.

Dunno if this has been mentioned before, or if it will be fixed in the next beta. Just tossing it out there.

Not only did hash figure out the camera for the droid3. But his method can help all cm9ports that have locked phones. Thats genius

Hey guys i have had my d3 for a while now but before that i had a droid2 global and when the dev's were developing cm7 for it we had a cm7 dev thread in the dev section and a cm7 users thread in the general section, it worked alot better for general talk and development separation. Can someone create a user's thread in the general section. I think it will keep this thread minimized for actual development use. and not have to create a new dev thread every so often.

[Motorola Droid 3] droidian1441:
I've never flashed a rom while rooted on a leaked update, but Safestrap I believe is only for rooted .890 users. I could be wrong though, but thats what I can remember as of right now.

[Motorola Droid 3] droidian1441:
Haha that's good! I'd like to know if anybody has done the same (OTA root keeper, restored root, etc...) for the 5.7.902. When I lasted talked with Hash he said the root keepers didn't work but I'd like to know if anybody has tried it.

Not anything new on any servers that have a later version than 5.7.902.

I ran through this morning to find the 5.6.999 update being thrown back out there on qa2. It's a brickable update (it bricks the phone after install)

My GF wants me to get rid of Moto Blur. I would love to give her ICS, but I'm not sure if this would be fine for her.

the OP says "no camera," but is that just the stock camera? If she uses an app like Retro Camera, is that useable with this ROM?
[Motorola Droid 3] spunker88:
The camera isn't working at all yet in ICS but Hash is working on it. If she just wants to get rid of Moto Blur you can install a 3rd party launcher. I use ADW Launcher EX and it runs so much better than Moto Blur. You could also root and freeze some bloatware to speed up the phone.

Hate to double post and add to the thread size but its an honest question.

Guys, again, there is a general cm9 thread.

If you keep posting crap here, dev wont fix any bug you report. Imagine 50 useless post and 1 reporting a bug. It´s a pain for any dev.

We all want ics working, but, be patient, and use the proper thread.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
True, but I thought bugs needed to be reported via tracker, not here? I doubt hashcode has time to even read all the posts on XDA. (heck I cant even keep up)
[Motorola Droid 3] will5:
Yep, bugs should be reported via tracker with a proper logcat.

But some people dont know how to do that and maybe posting here, helps to figure out bugs.

At least that´s what usually happens on ohter devs thread.

Anyway, I wont offtopic anymore, but just try to make devs life a little easier :)

great rom, i like it plenty stable even though it dnt have the camera, i miss little things like gtalk , i dnt like xabber, and the wifi is weak , but other then that i like it i cant wait till its in beta and completed, great work hash plenty thanks
[Motorola Droid 3] Willis111:
Works. audio 10/10 / video was like a slide show 2/10, picture was clear but I was honestly only seeing every x(like 180th) frame. Just gonna try a few things here on my end now(wipe and reflash) to see if it was something I did that caused the video to chop up like that. Hope that clears it up :P

Edit: After full wipe the video still plays like a slide show skipping tons of frames, displaying one, skipping a ton more.

Edit2: Flash is working 100% now. Went on market updated to flash 11.1 and grabbed opera mobile browser (not mini, don't know if it matters), loaded up youtube.com, went into settings for opera mobile, in "Advanced" changed Adobe Flash to Enabled (instead of click to play), clicked a video, it loaded the youtube app, checked the settings in youtube app and in "General" checked "High quality on mobile". Relaunched all apps (going from youtube through opera) and video is playing 10/10, audio 10/10. Also works great directly from the youtube app.

Does youtube not require flash? Guess it's html5 now. Odd how that cleared up the video playback issue I was having anyways.
[Motorola Droid 3] VincentDHam:
I think it has its own built in flash player. Well the app anyway.
[Motorola Droid 3] Willis111:
idk, "in july 2010 the mobile version was relaunched based on html5" and "the mobile version is also available as an app for android" makes it sound like it isn't using flashplayer at all. More like the mobile app is just a glorified web browser pointed at the mobile site which streams video using h.264/mpeg4 or their own codec. Perhaps Bobbar or anyone else could clear it up for us with a 100% answer hopefully w/source.
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
See eventhough i was flammed for posting my comment it WAS relevant! :p

Most are waiting for the camera..i find flash more relevant and needed..
[Motorola Droid 3] Willis111:
I'm pretty sure Hashcode hasn't even looked at flash on ics with everything else he's been doing. This might be one of the cases where trying to find a solution for ourselves will be a lot quicker than waiting. I would imagine he will be posting a new build pretty much as soon as the camera is working so I would automagically assume that flash wont be fixed by Hashcode by the next build.
[Motorola Droid 3] Bobbar:
The issue with Flash and Youtube is kind of two part, if my understanding is correct.

ICS still has missing codecs as well as Render-script issues. At least one of these is contributing to the YT/Flash issues. While YT.com may no longer require Flash, the other problems are preventing videos from being rendered; the same problems that keep Flash from working.

The YouTube App is completely independent of Flash, HTML5 and clearly is avoiding the codec/render-script issues. When you click on a YT video in the browser, it will give you the option to open it via the browser (using flash/HTML5) or via the YouTube app. Unless of course you have already chosen a default.

I noticed that from the mobile version of YT it will automatically launch the YT app. Look at the playback bar next time, it's ICS Blue, not YouTube red, indicating that it's being handled by another app and not Flash.

Not flash.^

Strange, my youtube player bar is red and m.youtube.com works from the browser and from opera mobile. Can't play .swf though. Just to be clear you're talking about the red bar at the bottom of my screenshot vs the blue bar at the bottom of yours(the tracking bar)? Not just the problems w/this rom may be keeping flash from working really, didn't they just finally get a working flash on the galaxy nexus not long ago. I'd still rather try and figure something (anything) out myself than sit here and wait for Hashcode to do it for me (not that he's not great but doesn't this guy have enough on his plate that we can step up a bit?)

Edit: I know this must be really hard on your guys waiting for all this dev info to be released, reading posts about how to get/if flash player is working, if data is working etc. Sorting through all those posts for relevant posts can be a pain. Try the search feature. Pretty sure any post relevant to getting features working on this rom would be considered "Dev". The posts I see cluttering up the thread are "is this a dev or user thread?".

Nothing irrelevant about a question most people here can probably answer for you, what's irrelevant is telling you to look through the user thread for working features, they should be listed in the OP or mentioned somewhere in this thread when a user get's it working AND THEN moved over to the user thread for everyone else to use (once it's confirmed).
