I would say, err on the side of caution, and use the normal option to switch between systems. I've never used the quick toggle, but if the dev puts a warning in the recovery menu (that it's not very safe), I'll take him at his word, and spend the couple extra seconds, to do things safely. :)
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
Normal. Quicktoggle had the warning thing
[Motorola Droid 3] gravenimage:
I've used quick toggle a few times, no problems using it, I believe all it does is skips the backup process
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
You might be able to get away with using the quick toggle between stock-based ROMs as most of the libs and system apps don't change much. But using it between ICS <-> Stock-based ROMs is really playing with fire. All it takes is for 1 system app to have a UID change and then stuff starts to go south.

"Quick toggle" was to be used in a worst case scenario where the /emmc partition had an error and was unable to complete the "swapping" process. In effect it's an emergency way out.

I don't recommend ever using it if you don't fit ^^^ this description.
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
Did we have some people test and confirm this fix? If so I'll change these out for Alpha #6.
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
Updated some of the tips/tricks/links in the OP. And I'm going through the bugtracker and doing some cleanup.

Hey hashcode

Were the post before meant to say the camera is close to being done but lacking features? Or sayin that its still gotta be worked on for alotta time and will be lacking features ?
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
If I had to guess, I'd say 50% through the code. And it will lack some of the ICS features.

[Motorola Droid 3] The Physician:
Please god help, lol

When I turn on my phone screen I'm going to guess about 95% of the time it doesn't detect my fingers or anything until I turn the screen off and on a few billion times.

I tried wiping data, cache, dalvik, and then reinstalling Alpha 5 and it instantly had the same problem. Errrr? What gives? Lol
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:
Bad download or flash maybe? Try DL'ing it again and flashing it over fresh.
[Motorola Droid 3] The Physician:
Tried that. It seems to only do it when I slide out the keyboard.

Once the issue occurs do this.

Or do step 1 before hand to be ready.

1. Install this app, https://market.android.com/details?id=com.xtralogic.android.logcollector

2. Use gmail to share it sending the log to hashcode0f@gmail.com

3. This parts critical use "silence" without quotes in the subject line.

[Motorola Droid 3] VincentDHam:
I really hope droid 3 recieves ICS. I mean its the least Moto can do after ripping us d3 owners off by announcing the droid 4 a couple months after the d3 released. The Droid 4 is everything the Droid 3 should have been to begin with... =/
[Motorola Droid 3] droidian1441:
I think it has a 70 or 80% chance of getting official ICS. I do agree Motorola can do this as the DROID 4 is being released within the next couple of weeks, only 6 or 7 months after the D3 started selling.

It really isn't ripping off, you get what you paid for is what I and some people feel like; but I am disappointed in Motorola for ending the D3's life after not even a year.

--Plus, just to ask, does anybody want the same Alpha rom but with all of the ringtones that come on the DROID RAZR? The Razr has some ringtones that I know of no other phones have.

I download the file and place in the ringtones, no other tweaks other than that and some unneeded system apps.
[Motorola Droid 3] VincentDHam:
can you post a link or the files for the ringtones?
[Motorola Droid 3] droidian1441:
Do you want the ringtones only or the whole Alpha #5 with the ringtones included? Ill do either one

[Motorola Droid 3] edmann:
"It really isn't ripping off"? Is that coming from a Moto employee? One of the reasons for the back to back phones so close together is to keep people in a contract with their carrier. We live in a society that is constantly trying to sell each other something. Fact is we have lost the real meaning of "rip off" and its moral ramifications. Maybe what is happening is more like breaking the rules, quietly. A quiet rip off ?
[Motorola Droid 3] slayer621:
This is great, thanks. Is MMS broken for anyone else? Can't send or receive pictures.

get a twitter account

install official twitter app.

[Motorola Droid 3] spunker88:
Would the leaked RAZR ICS build help you out at all getting the camera to work. Its an 8MP/1080p in the RAZR so it may be the same or very similar to ours.

I downloaded it and the only file name that makes reference to the camera is camera.omap4.so from lib/hw. Would it be worth it to try this file on our Droid 3. I don't see a Camera.apk in the RAZR build, but I'll upload the .so file not sure if it will help.
[Motorola Droid 3] :
I was wondering the same thing, maybe when the official build is released it will help if this wont?
[Motorola Droid 3] droidian1441:
I think it has a chance of helping out the camera, but has anybody tried experimented by trying to move the attachment to their phone running the ICS build?
[Motorola Droid 3] bitz_dv:
Not sure this will help that much without the kernal.
[Motorola Droid 3] spunker88:
Somebody could try replacing /system/lib/hw/camera.omap4.so with the one I attached. I'm not sure if any other files are needed. From the screenshots leaked, the camera app appears to be the same as the Gingerbread one. This build is GSM only, but that shouldn't matter for a camera.

I haven't flashed ICS to my phone yet as its my primary line and quite important otherwise I would try it.

Bonesjones is right. The d3 gingerbread kernel is missing the required support for ICS camera functionality. There is more missing than just the ion module. Hash is working on a wrapper that will translate the required ICS camera api to the GB kernel, but we will be limited to the functions the kernel supports.

hes been quiet the past couple days, wonder how close he is to finishing it.
[Motorola Droid 3] hemirunner426:
He has been working on it bit by bit. He makes changes to his repo almost every night. The last I heard on twitter is that he was having some compilation issues w/ the camera but I believe he has got past that. There have been several camera references made to his git in the last couple days.

Are you running 5.6.890?
[Motorola Droid 3] daimerion:
Yes sir

Sent from my CM9ICS-D3 via Ethereal Projection
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
The couple of things I can think of right off:

1. I'm not sure roaming data has ever actually been tested.

2. I don't know if there's any special build.prop settings which I might have missed which increase the gain slightly to cause the 1x data? I can do some research on this.

3. While I've identified 1 wakelock issue regarding the touch sound settings (causes high cpu/battery drain issues). There could possibly be another one as well. And either of these could be affecting your ability to keep a solid signal.

Have you disabled "Touch sounds" and "Screen lock sound" in the Sounds menu?

Also, double check to make sure your BP version matches w/ 5.6.890. I've seen instances where the radio and the system version were out of sync: N_03.18.29P

Hope that helps,
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
So let me get this straight. RAZR got a new kernel update with ICS and we didnt????

[Motorola Droid 3] ssinisterss:
alpha 6 should have it fixed.
[Motorola Droid 3] SchwassKIN:
That sounds great but I was hoping to make phone calls :)
[Motorola Droid 3] hemirunner426:
I imagine turning on wifi disables data over CDMA. Turning it off restarted data over cdma and brought your data back. All ICS does is send a ping to a google server. If it responds, the signal bars turn blue indicating data is active.

It sounds like your in an area of low signal quality. Data/Voice can be finicky in those areas and vary in functionality day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute.

Try loading up the phone and dial *#*#4636#*#* and select phone information. Let us know whats listed in there. I'm curious to see what the signal strength may be.

Hash might be able to find some radio tweaks to do in software, but there might not be anything he can do so keep that mind.
