Its all good. No drama, that kills dev. And maybe its not clear, but my opinion is there is a users thread for things that you occasionally see that don't effect the function of the phone. I see there are no moderators, so at some point we have to start self-moderating so that this can remain/become a place where everyone can follow without wasting too much time reading the same things over and over. Bonesjones even offers help via pm or email ..etc to keep this streamlined. All I'm saying is let's manage our resources so that devs can read here what might actually help them. No more rants for me...back to the shadows, reading and trying to learn more( finally know how to decompile the files so I can try and compare to atrix files). Thank you to all the people who spend hours for little to no money, seems to me like CM9 devs and people like Hash working together are doing a lot better job than google/moto duo who keep our bootloader locked.

After having the Beta 1 installed for about a day, my phone has started locking up after ending a call. The screen stays black and all buttons become unresponsive and the only thing that recovers from this state is a battery pull. I reverted back to my backup of Alpha 7 with the camera .zip installed and the issue is gone. Has anyone else experienced anything similar? Yes, I do a complete wipe before all of my installs.
[Motorola Droid 3] The-Captain:
I could not press 2 to activate so does anyone know the Verizon number for automatic programming or whatever?
[Motorola Droid 3] mikedyk43:
Try dialing *22899
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
Can use the hard keyboard and press 2 that way also.
[Motorola Droid 3] AragornPE:
Idk, but it seems like this build makes the cell standby use a lot more than usual. I'm getting like 10h of battery life.

DarkDroid 1.1 (Unsafe) + Hash's ICS Beta 1 (Safe)
[Motorola Droid 3] jediman:
I don't get it, what is so bad about 10 hour battery life when you are using the phone for phone, browsing, etc????
[Motorola Droid 3] virus5877:
I've been waiting for this to come out of Alpha for 2 months now, checking daily. I finally installed the first Beta build from 2/27, and all I have to say is WOW!

I love my phone again!

thanks so much for all the awesome work!

also, did anybody ever figure out how to get chrome to work with this rom?

I tried to install the chrome1.apk that was referred to earlier, it installs, but the browser won't render anything. its' just a blank white page no matter what I try and render. Not sure if that's from lack of HW accel with this rom or what..

anybody got any more ideas?
[Motorola Droid 3] pm2gonzales:
Im pretty sure this issue is not limited to cm9 or droid 3 specifically. Considering it's still still in the beta, I wouldn't rule out that a future release would have better compatability
[Motorola Droid 3] jediman:
One annoyance I found is the home screen real estate is foobared when you ditch the search bar up top. I can't move a widget up to where it was making real estate meh. More a trebuchet bug I guess?
[Motorola Droid 3] 2manytoys:
You wouldn't happen to remember exactly your steps would you? I really want to move back :D

Cheers, Mal.
[Motorola Droid 3] Ozguitar67:
I am having issues with my wi-fi as well, but I don't think it's related to signal strength. I usually sit about 5-7 feet from my router when at home. For some reason it just seems to drop it after a period of inactivity. I usually notice after the phone is locked for some period of time. Then it will not reconnect to wi-fi until I turn it off and back on. It won't even try to reconnect if I scan for networks again. It just says that all APs are out of range.

I will try this mod to the build.prop and see if that does anything to help. But it seems like the wi-fi might be turning off by itself,... to conserve battery...maybe? then needs to be turned back on manually....

Not sure. But it's still great, and so fast!
[Motorola Droid 3] Sal R.:
Went into recovery, flashed CM9 beta 2, flashed gapps, and wiped data/cache (factory reset).

After boot up, I setup my accounts, let it sync, and started pairing all my BT devices.

After that, I restored all my user apps using TiBu.

Hope that helps.

Yep.

I'm using nova launcher as a result.
[Motorola Droid 3] typ:
Bluetooth Audio and Call Silence

I know this has been touched on here and there, but I thought I'd throw in my experiences and temporary workaround in the event that it helps others who may be experiencing the same issues.

Bluetooth audio to my car stereo and Motorola S9 headset work great, however, when making or receiving calls I encounter static/crackling. At an attempt to resolve this I'd disconnect from the bluetooth devices and try making my calls again. This is when I'd run into the "silence" issue where I'd be unable to hear the person on the other line and vice versa.

The easiest fix I've discovered is to turn off my bluetooth. This immediately resolves the "silence" issue. When I need to use bluetooth devices I just turn my phone's bluetooth back on and hope that no one calls me :-P
[Motorola Droid 3] 2manytoys:
I just wiped data and cache and flash ICS again. I connected to one of my cars, wow, it fixed my Bluetooth Car Kit! I then paired with my other car but that's got static. I tried a few things but it didn't work. Now, just to be sure I went back to my first car and the static is now there. I restarted my phone again (turned the car on/off) but I can't get rid of the static again now.

This time, all I did was pair the second car straight after the first (no 3rd party software)

I did notice that my second car seemed to keep the static there even after a phone call. I had to turn bluetooth off to stop it. It was like it was trying to play something over bluetooth or the audio was still sort of connected. Odd.

Anyway, back on Liberty again and waiting in hope someone smarter than me can work out what's wrong.

Cheers, Mal.
[Motorola Droid 3] AragornPE:
I'm not using it. It's just sitting there. If I actually use it, it doesn't get through 4h
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
Do you use FB and have the app installed? Try uninstalling it for 24 hours. If it is more normal then disable notifications and maybe try adjusting Android's memory settings. Also make sure you uncheck the sounds for screen taps (I don't know if it was mentioned already to you).
[Motorola Droid 3] Seirÿu:
Not sure if this has been reported or not, but when my phone gets sync'd to my truck through bluetooth to make calls and such, my signal seems to go to $#!7 everytime. as soon as I turn my bluetooth off, it works perfectly. I've tried this over and over to confirm it wasn't just a location thing while I'm driving, Tested while parked still does the same thing.

Also, data speeds when going from location to location (like hitting different cell towers) seems to be slow to pick things back up... this one could just be me loosing patience or something though lawl.

Everything else for me has worked great (minus the already reported issues I saw documented). Thank you for all the hard work Hash! :D
[Motorola Droid 3] AragornPE:
Actually it wasn't. I'll try what you suggested. But right now ICS is just for fooling around, I still need the record ability =/

[Motorola Droid 3] digitalsynner85:
wonder why its under solana and not under droid3
[Motorola Droid 3] droidian1441:
Solana is the codename for the D3.
[Motorola Droid 3] kapilthio:
Its Working Great. No FC Yet.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
So from what I read there will only be a changelog after a couple of nightlies which will then be the next beta?
[Motorola Droid 3] ctheory83:
Calling it that isn't really accurate, either. The feature is there as some phones will have SD cards, and handset manufacturers aren't going to go away from them anytime soon, especially considering the bandwidth caps most carriers have now.

Its there, just finding it, enabling it, and getting expected results under different hardware is more where things seem to be, not inventing a new feature. At least, that is how it seems.

I doubt anyone meant you any harm or anything, its just that there are still bigger fish to fry on the ROM :)
[Motorola Droid 3] jiangkarl:
for GSM user, I want to share my experience on how to make a call successfully. I have tested it several times with two GSM operators and both work well.

here is how it goes:

after I dial the *#*#4646#*#* and select the GSM auto (PRL), I go to setting>wireless network>more>mobile network>network operators, let it search for 30second to 1min, then I go back to make a dial, it shows "com.android.phone", but when i dial again,it didn't show the "com.android.phone" (it may show there is no network, but it doesn't matter), reboot your phone, after coming back, you could make a call! it won't have the FCs. It seems the phone is making connection with the network to activate the phone function.
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:
On the SD card issue, I've had 0 issues with apps finding my sd-ext. In TiBu, when I scanned for backups, folders of backups popped up on both the internal and external. QuickPic works fine reading from both locations.
[Motorola Droid 3] mikedyk43:
This was addressed a few pages back, but you just delete OpenWnn.apk and PinyinIME.apk from /system/app. These are the Chinese and Japanese keyboards. Deleting them solves the input method issue.

Remember to thank Androidsims for this on page 6 of this thread.
[Motorola Droid 3] mikedyk43:
Hey all, i found a thread today that has an "official" Xoom ICS release (Chinese). Within hours the Xoom devs got the camera and HDMI working. I don't know if it will have anything relevant for this device, but it may be worth a look for those with more technical knowledge.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=21088704
[Motorola Droid 3] digitalsynner85:
Yeah thats for the other 2 keyboards, but I want to use swype. I'm pretty sure deleting the apk for swype in the system/app folder will cause issues if I'm trying to use it, wouldn't it?
[Motorola Droid 3] 白い熊:
Are you experiencing reboots at this speed due to low voltage, or is it more stable than the stock OC'd?
[Motorola Droid 3] mikedyk43:
Yes, sorry I misunderstood. I believe as long as you have more than one keyboard enabled, you will get the icon appearing. You could try freezing the LatinIME.apk in system app to disable the stock keyboard.
[Motorola Droid 3] phrir1:
Does anyone notice that the mute button doesn't work while on a phone call? I had a conference call today and I couldn't mute myself, just wanted to see if its just me or is it overall at the moment.
[Motorola Droid 3] hemirunner426:
This is a known bug atm.
[Motorola Droid 3] droidian1441:
Actually, I just making a point but how could I get the stock blur camera to install so I could use it for now??
[Motorola Droid 3] digitalsynner85:
I'll try that now.

On another note, is vibrate not working for anyone else?
[Motorola Droid 3] Cameron6472:
When receiving texts? I think I had to check the setting in the messaging app
[Motorola Droid 3] mikedyk43:
No camera works on this build at the moment, including stock blur camera.
[Motorola Droid 3] jediman:
Ignore him. Its a well known fact that Google is going cloud.
[Motorola Droid 3] tacosrdelicioso:
I remember a while back somebody posted some video codec program or something that solved all of the video playback issues. Can't find it. Anybody remember?
[Motorola Droid 3] digitalsynner85:
Thanks. Thought the vibrate settings were global so didn't check in the actual messaging settings
[Motorola Droid 3] fotoingo:
Thats right but try using a Gameloft Game (they want to download the Data once more because they look at the false sd-card) or try App2SD (it lists false infos about the internal storage) from the market. They dont work normally.
[Motorola Droid 3] emprize:
Are u using xt862? Or xt860/me863?
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:

[Motorola Droid 3] dvet:

about changelog its not so understandable but its below

I try to keep track of whats going on by reading his twitter but can't keep up with all the different models/stuff he and all the others are working on?

What's the current priority? Video(codecs)?
[Motorola Droid 3] dvet:
Thanks.

Do these nightly builds work on XT860?
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
All updatesx are on rombot.droidhive.com. go to archive n there willl be nightly builds. Just click solana section. Solano is codename for droid3
[Motorola Droid 3] Ozguitar67:
Does anyone know if these nightly builds require a wipe to install? Or can I install this over my existing beta installation from 2/27 as an upgrade?
[Motorola Droid 3] dvet:
How does this work anyway? Without wipe, would it keep my apps etc.?

Also, how could I swap my current non-safe ROM I am satisfied with with my previous safe one? IOW: I would like to make my current nonsafe ROM safe one
[Motorola Droid 3] niko99:
I think you make update beta with this "nightles" without wipe

(but always is better to do that, but it's not needed )
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
New build up (3/5) with 1% battery mod included.

Don't worry too much about the crummy changelog page on rombot.droidhive.com that's a work in progress and it'll get easier to read.

Eventually, we'll get all of this worked out so that you can make informed decisions about when to upgrade your build.
[Motorola Droid 3] ssinisterss:
how do we get back the original ICS boot animation?
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
Will cm9 be updated to the current build of 4.0.4 or no?

just wonderin
[Motorola Droid 3] Ozguitar67:
This new build is great! Wi-fi and 3G are working awesome now.

But I just realized that I must be missing something really stupid, because text copy/cut/paste does not work for me. Anyone else having any issues?
[Motorola Droid 3] boynas:
How am I supposed to flash this?

I got a bootloop and of course I need the OS to load into CWR...

Do I striclty need that safe-boot thing?
[Motorola Droid 3] ssinisterss:
the capacitive button and kb backlight settings are broken in this build. when i set the values to 0 like previous builds it only works on auto brightness and not on the other settings (dimness all the way down) anymore.
[Motorola Droid 3] The-Captain:
Okay thanks

[Motorola Droid 3] Cheezhead19:
Anyone have problems with the new builds not letting you uninstall from the app drawer?

It has remove instead of uninstall.
[Motorola Droid 3] macroman8807:
whenever i try to send txts it comes up with a popup that says there is no available network to send but im able to make calls use data just fine and the popup wouldnt go way untill i reboot
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
In an effort to spend less time uploading and administrating change logs, etc.. we've established nightlies for CM9!

Included in the nightlies is a change log for deciding if it's the right time to update your build.

Of course with any major updates, I'll try and hit the forums and post it.

So check out the OP with the new information.
[Motorola Droid 3] dvet:
Could I flash it on XT860?
[Motorola Droid 3] e493956170:
ah ha we have nightly update now ,but the changlog is not clearly enough.will you polish it?
[Motorola Droid 3] bgarlock:
A little off-topic, but interesting that this app. works fine with this ROM - it's called "Motorola Car Finder" and it automatically saves your Car's location via GPS, when you un-dock your D3 from the Car Dock. I guess the App. shipped with the D4 and Razr, but I am finding it works great with ICS in CM9, with my D3!

https://market.android.com/details?...SwxLDEsImNvbS5tb3Rvcm9sYS5jcC5jYXJmaW5kZXIiXQ..

Very useful app, especially if you are in a huge lot. You don't have to remember to save your location :-)
[Motorola Droid 3] Ozguitar67:
You have to hover the app icon over the Remove for a couple seconds and then it changes to uninstall, this works for me from both the home screen and app drawer. Hope this helps
[Motorola Droid 3] Cheezhead19:
Oh cool. Thanks!
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
I will still jump in the forums and point out when there are nightlies which include larger features / bugfixes.

The automated change log is more for those aggressive users to identify certain changes that they really want to see sooner than later.
[Motorola Droid 3] ssinisterss:
well it looks like the droid 3 is NOT getting ICS officially. http://www.droid-life.com/2012/03/0...get-ice-cream-sandwich-updates/#disqus_thread

we may be stuck on this kernel unless a bionic software port can be done, but even so no kernel changes can be made.
[Motorola Droid 3] sr20s13:
that's only 4G LTE devices, we don't know about our phones for sure because well we don't have LTE haha
[Motorola Droid 3] ssinisterss:
the incredible 2 and rhyme are listed under HTC devices and they arent 4G
[Motorola Droid 3] sr20s13:
wow didn't notice that, wtf motorola wtf!

but notice that all of them have more then 512mb of ram, I knew this would come back to haunt us haha
[Motorola Droid 3] tcrews:
But both of those were confirmed by HTC for getting ICS.

and the list looks to be cut & paste from Manufacturers announcements......and also says they will continue to update the list as information comes available.

Nothing different yet from this than Motorola's announced list of still having it in the "evaluation" section.
[Motorola Droid 3] bgarlock:
Sorry is this has been discussed previously, but would anything to do with HDMI be considered under the "HW Video Codecs (in progress)" Not working item? Or, maybe HDMI works fine? I know under MavROM I needed to flash the DLNA stuff for HDMI to work.

Also, does the fact that barcodes not being able to be scanned fall under that HW Video Codecs issue, or more of the Camcorder not working with the Camera?

And finally, a few posts up talks about ICS not going to be released for the D3 "officially", what does everyone feel about that one? I've been running ICS on my D3 for over a week now, and think its a lot smoother and faster of a phone, so it's certainly not a HW issue...
[Motorola Droid 3] kertong:
dang it... is there a way to get this *without* the 1% battery mod, or at least, make it optional? This was the only ICS rom without the % constantly reminding me to meter my usage, and now that's gone. :(

Or if you could post up a stock frameworks-res.apk or so that we could sub in there for those of us who prefer the look of the stock battery...

other than that, I love seeing the progress on this ICS rom, pretty close to being daily driveable!

@bgarlock: I wouldn't be surprised if the droid 3 never "officially" got ICS, I believe verizon would rather push the droid 4 / razr sales instead. This link was released today too, and no mention of ICS for the droid 3... http://news.verizonwireless.com/news/2012/03/bl2012-03-06.html
[Motorola Droid 3] Cheezhead19:
Go to settings, system and turn battery indicator to "icon"
[Motorola Droid 3] kertong:
:O ok, now I just feel dumb. Thank you. :) (goes back to hiding under the bridge). I'll shut up now!
[Motorola Droid 3] 2manytoys:
Hey guys and Hash,

Not many people have commented on the static/crackling noise regarding Bluetooth Headsets/car kits.

Is this a known bug that is being looked at or something only a very few are experiencing and not on the list?

Cheers, Mal.
[Motorola Droid 3] slayer621:

[Motorola Droid 3] slayer621:
So how is the latest nightly? Someone posted that the copy/paste was broken, was that an isolated case? Any other issues?
[Motorola Droid 3] bgarlock:
The least Verizon should do is offer to give us folks who can hack, an unlocked boot loader so we don't have to reverse engineer everything to get ICS fully working with our HW. I would give up support from Verizon, and any warranty to get that.

Can you imagine how sweet this ROM would be if we could tune up the kernel? What are they afraid of?

Hell, they could even go so far as allowing us to partition off a recovery partition that had HW diagnostics to prove any possible HW issues with the phone, and only offer HW replacements if it was a HW and not ROM issue
[Motorola Droid 3] bgarlock:
What attributes of the build.prop allow the D3 to install Market Apps, and what are good strings to use? For example, when I go to the market, I can't install Verizon's "My Verizon" app, but when I restore it from TiBu, it runs just fine -- even though the Market says my phone is not supported. I have a handful of apps that I can't d/l from the Market, but my backed up versions work just fine..
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
So, I'm going to stop pushing the NIGHTLIES as the main form of download. They're just that.. nightlies; use them if you want to.

Instead, I'm re-organizing the blog so that you as users can have a page which is informational and should get you want you want:

http://blog.hash-of-codes.com/downloads/motorola-droid-3/

BUT, to do that, I had to switch from Blogger to WordPress and re-create the blog entirely. So expect some dead links, etc. If you find some (ANYWHERE) send me an email: hashcode0f@gmail.com

Enjoy... and I apologize for all of the site shifting / link breaking / new junk going on. Trying to build a better mouse-trap. Hopefully, things will settle down and we'll resume or normally broadcast builds shortly.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
looking much better!
[Motorola Droid 3] atlantanetworkguy:
Hell yea I am so thankful for the dev here, seems like everything just keeps getting better. Thank you hash and as far as the latest nightly, I flashed from a late feb build to 3/5 and it worked great! No issues at all, including copy n paste...and I like 1% battery. If anyone is having some specific issue, post it here and I will copy over some files for you or whatever you need.

And I can't remember if its been addressed lately or not, but you don't have to wipe data to flash these updates.

[Motorola Droid 3] tacosrdelicioso:
Does that mean you won't add main fixes to the nightlies right away? :( that's sad because it was nice to have fixes just added to the bot and would show up on the next build

I just won't be pushing those builds on people. Ill still try and do timely betas which have been tested, etc.
