Sounds like you had a bad install of mav..sounds like you need to try again lol..but for the hotspot I could not get it to work properly with mav either..one of the main reasons I run eclipse now on my non-safe which wife teather for root users works on and mav on my safe-system.
[Motorola Droid 3] bogdan_wrc:
somehow....i dont know how :)) managed to make the hotspot work on mavrom. i installed some ICS AOKP and safesystem...played a bit with that...and until yesterday, the tether was working...

after i installed 906, the email account cannot be set to yahoo. anybody knows why? am i the only one with this issue??

i tried like 50 times...and always says "account login failed, try again later"
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
You might wanna ask that in the mavrom thread as im not sure..I do not use yahoo myself..or you can visit the developers thread over at Click here

[Motorola Droid 3] {davros}:
Lol was just gonna say u made DROID life
[Motorola Droid 3] bogdan_wrc:
I did that, but no answer from them. And its not a mavrom issue, because i tried once again the sbf, updated to 906, and the yahoo account did not work. I was 100% stock, rooted.

after this re flash of update, the hotspot is working :)
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:
Hotspot would probably require another radio hack I'd assume. As for yahoo, how are you going about adding the account? Settings > Accouns > Add Account? I'd suggest adding it through an app as sometimes the listed tiles in "Accounts" are dummies for some reason (from what I've found).

Making DroidLife is pretty cool as well!
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
Okay so I just signed up for a yahoo account..

Downloaded the yahoo apk from market..

Went to settings/add account..clicked yahoo

Entered my user and pass..

It logged me in and asked me what I would like to sync and backup..and finished setup successfully..

So adding yahoo seems to work for me

Edit:

Fatpomp on rootzwiki stated:

To get yahoo mail to work without having to use the market yahoo app you have to setup the account manually from the email app.

Updated op with mirror for 1-click as some have problems downloading from minus
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
ya i've run into that problem before. Switched filehost because of it, not that i have a ton of files to host :p
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
Lol musta helped its flyin off the shelf..

Wonder if we can get this pinned
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Good luck. I don't think the mods spend alot of time in here
[Motorola Droid 3] bogdan_wrc:
Overlayer, the yahoomail app from market works fine, but a lot of people complained about its working functions, and how late thei receive emails. And i am very satisfied with the stock email app. But i followed those steps and now works fine. Although, before 906 i just choosed the yahoomail from my accounts and thats it.

After another flash ( i mentioned this yesterday) which i did, the hotspot started to work. Now, i realize it could have worked for the first time a flashed 906, also...but i tried to supply internet to an iphone 4, and my droid 3 does not stand them :)) so he might have just been selfih hahaahah

Just wondering, has anyone flashed this directly over stock .890, not as a revert, but as a partial component upgrade? I was wondering if entirely .890 users could flash this without causing any headaches.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
why? if you're on .890 you can just use the .890 SBF
[Motorola Droid 3] doogald:
It would make it easier to point people who need to SBF to just one place - particularly if they brick and do not know for sure which system version they were running.
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
no but i dont believe it would work because of the changed files

honestly if your not paying attention to what version your on....you shouldnt be flashing
[Motorola Droid 3] doogald:
I don't necessarily disagree - I think that way too many people root their phone who have no business rooting in the first place - but it still would be nice to point XT862 users to a single source, if it worked.

Problem with android OS

I have problem with my droid 3 battery life.

I use Steel rom 4.6 Gigerbread. My phone is 100% charged. it's standby overnight.

At the morning, Android OS is 82% of Battery Use.

I use Badass Bettery monitor to check, i see that Kernel is 70% of Battery.

I don't know what is running.

Help me, please.

Thanks.

[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
this is a question that would probably be asked in the general section..as you would probably get more responses and help there if you started a thread..so it is hard to determine what exatically is taking your battery life but from experience sd isnt as good as some of the other custom roms for battery life..if your looking for improved battery life i would suggest mavrom 4.0 but you might wanna hold out as the devs will soon be releasing a newer version

I got a question if anybody could help me. I have a Galaxy Nexus and my father has a Droid 3. So I am looking to root it and use an ICS Rom. He is on 906 do I need to SBF back to 890 to root and what not ?
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
no just use the motofail root method..
[Motorola Droid 3] pfoff:
XT862 locked in europe

I have the problem, that my phone don't seem to detect my sim card. It is a brandnew Verizon XT862. IMEI and Baseband Version in phone infos show unknown. I switch to GSM/UMTS after inserting my german sim, but there is no question to unlock it and the phone contnues to tell me, sim not detected.

I flashed the sbf and it didn't help me. Is there a special way to check Baseband and/or sim?

Or can I just go on and unlock the phone anyhow/-way?

Thanks for any response I am stuck here and it worked so well on my first D3....
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
im sorry pfoff i have never unlocked my sim and i dont use GSM so i would not know how to guide you through the steps to fix this..hopefully one of our gifted GSM users can chime in and help you out:(
[Motorola Droid 3] kratosmpl:
I have tried many rom: Steel droid, ICS, Mavrom ... but the problem still can't solve.

I'm waiting assistances.

[Motorola Droid 3] mrbidjey:
Hey Ovelayer good job on that posting but do you know you're still able to downgrade to 5.6.890 by using the "Flash+Verizon+DROID+3+OTA+5.6.890+to+phone_psouza4" unbrick method?

No need to download RSDLite; just Psouza4's zip file. I just did it before posting it.
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
Not if your on .906 ota..

His will only do 5.7.894 and lower if your on 5.7.906 and try to sbf back it will fail without the mod

And if you look right above the rsdlite version I have a .exe sbf that doesn't require rsdlite either

I just included the rsdlite version as some still like it..
[Motorola Droid 3] mrbidjey:
It worked on my D3. I did it before I replied to your post
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
Lol ill let others chime in on that one if they wanna..
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:
I have my doubts about this... Certain parts refuse to flash because they are not backwards compatible from 906 to 890.
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
Lol yes its very true..if your on .906 and use p's 1 click you WILL brick

I was reading through his posts and he is a d4 user who had a d3 that he doesn't use he even offered it up to someone..and by the timeline of the post (if it was laying around unactivated) he would not have received the .906 update..thus p's 1click would have worked lolol

And by the way he posted here in reference to rsdlite and never my one click he didn't even read our thread just posted..anywho nice to see ya redsox985!
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:

[Motorola Droid 3] Phibernaut:
Seems like a lot of people are trying to roll back to 890 from 906. I've been considering taking the update for a few days - are there issues with it? Why the mass roll back?
[Motorola Droid 3] 5318008:
Speaking for myself, having patched my radio.img and uninstalled some bloatware, rolling back to 890 is probably my easiest path towards the 906 update. Having a one-click is a big help for me.

--posted from my phone
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
Because there is no official .906 sbf is why it takes you from. 906 to. 890
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
Happy birfday to me lol:crying:
[Motorola Droid 3] Phibernaut:
Happy birthday!

I get there's no official SBF, but why go back to 890 from 906? Shouldn't we all be running the latest/greatest OTA 906 software? Or am I missing something?
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
Ya gotta roll back to. 890 to get back on. 906 but if peeps are staying on. 890 im not sure why either..im with you about being on the latest..and for me. 906 does run smoother then. 890
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
i did this, my phone went to the android installer after reboot, got no error with your program. but after it went to reboot again, it doesnt get past moto logo... i can boot into the 3e recovery though

im sure if there is an update or something i can flash with the 3e recovery it will work. but im unsure if there is and dont want to test and mess up my phone for good

EDIT

fixed, i just took a chance and flashed the 906 update, and thank god thats ok. phone working now.
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
yes its an sbf if your on. 906 ota

we thought it might work for. 890 but found it would not..

glad you got it!
[Motorola Droid 3] gustavosg:
Do this works on Motorola Milestone 3 XT 860 GSM (Brazilian Version)?
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
no this is for xt862

so you would need a diff radio,some build prop edits and a few other things..

sorry im not fluient with xt860 so not to sure exatically
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
I'm fairly certain that all we would need to do to get it working on the xt860 is to just swap the correct sbf into the 1-click. I've been meaning to try but haven't had the time. I believe all the partitions are the same names
[Motorola Droid 3] gustavosg:
Sorry for being annoying, but i can't findo roms for XT860. It seens this is Brazil modelo only. But STOCK sucks ...

I'll appreciate for any help.
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
All 862 roms will work on the xt860, with a few modifications. I'll find the link for the patches for you later when I'm off work.
[Motorola Droid 3] gustavosg:
Ok, but i need to understand one thing. This update it's for XT862. XT860 it's almost the same. Even if i apply this update on my xt860, it could cause a brick?

Another thing... i didn't understood very well about the .890 and .906... What is really that? I've saw the first post but i didn't understood. Assuming than it works, my firmware is 5.2.390.XT860.Brasil.en.BR, i've saw some links over here with 5.6.890 (something like that). If i update, there's no back? Even if i use RSDLite and apply again my STOCK ROM?
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
you wont nessasaraly brick but I believe alot of thing wont work including your cell service..

.890 and .906 refer to ota update and their versions, .890 being older than .906

once you install the .906 ota update you cannot go back to a full .890 ota which is why we put this sbf together..

it puts you back to a mostly .890 state but uses some .906 files because those files cannot be used from .890 anymore
[Motorola Droid 3] gustavosg:
Man, this bugs me... I thought RSDLite simply reflashes all the device. Didn't know than this is only 'upgradeable'...

I thought i could go to (for an example) to 2.3.4 to 2.3.6, then go back to 2.3.4...
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts_solana/list.php

All of these should be safe to flash through rsdlite, except the Asian ones.. These are all xt860 firmwares, just for different regions. Xt862 is cdma_solana I don't think rsdlite will let you flash one, you would have to use fastboot, which this tools uses
[Motorola Droid 3] gustavosg:
Thanks bro.

[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
because you were on. 890 and not. 906

you could have also fixed it by downloading the. 906 ota to your computer pushing it to your external sd card then booting the phone into stock recovery and installing the update..
[Motorola Droid 3] bArAbAts:
hmm strange because mavrom 4.0 is 906!? but he im happy my phone is working again! tnx every1!
[Motorola Droid 3] ovelayer:
yes mavrom has. 906 system files in it but it does not put your phone on. 906 lol

you have to install the update yourself..

you can download it seperately the link is in the op

or you can go to ..setting/about phone/system updates and do it from there..but if you do it this way you will have to remove root and be on mostly original ota
[Motorola Droid 3] bArAbAts:

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nvx2004:
When I soft-reset my TD2, leave it be for a while so that backlight dims and then press a HW button or tap the display, backlight comes up back again. However, if the device enters standby the "resume backlight on user activity" function stops working properly for some reason. (I am not sure for how long TD2 has to be left alone - maybe 30 minutes, 1 hour?) Specifically, if the backlight dims and I go to Settings > System > Power > Advanced tab and uncheck "Dim screen after X s", the screen will light up, but if I check this checkbox again, the screen will dim even though I just interacted with the phone and the screen should therefore remain lit up. The only other way to get a fully lit screen (at least until it dims again due to user inactivity) is to lock the phone and unlock it back.

I should also add that this happens with the official stock WM6.5 ROM.

Is there anything in phone settings I should enable or disable, or is there any registry key I should set to some specific value for this feature to work properly again?

Thanks for any help.

Hakim,

thanks for the suggestion, however, in the meantime I learned that the issue is caused by the WM auto-lock feature (it is a bug that nobody cared to fix :-/ ). I was not able to find any useful work-around so I decided to install an application called LockDevice (it should be here somewhere on XDA Devs) which works very well and seems to be relatively light-weight.

Anyway, thanks again for your response.

The easiest way is probably from the official htc bootloader unlocking method, but then you risk FOTA brick, and losing DRM keys. I don't reccomend that much risk, but if you really want to unlock bootloader, go ahead.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psyphah:
Wondering if anyone else has encountered massive lagging, outright freezing, and even complete rebooting, when using one of the more recent roms/kernels with JIT enabled?

Wanting to use the latest and greatest roms, I've been all but frustrated by the above behaviour.

"This never used to happen!!" ... "Why is Google Navigator forcing my phone to reboot!?" ... "Why is the CPU being pegged at 100% just by unlocking the screen!?!?"... and so on and so forth, you get the idea.

Despairing after the same behavior with yet another rom/kernel combo, I just happened to glance and see a "Disable JIT" option and - being a linux/systems guy and knowing what a JIT does - thought "what the heck let's try this", and promptly disabled the JIT and rebooted.

Picture a scene where the dark clouds opened up revealing sun rays and angelic music, as my phone suddenly started behaving as it should!

So. Anyone else with an SO-01B and experiencing similar? Try disabling the JIT, and please let me know how you got on.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeliumX10:
Ohhh, what ROM are you using? In 2.3.3 you dont need JIT, because it is already enabled :D Even if you try to install it on 2.3.3 system will not boot or boot with extreme lags.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psyphah:
Oh yes, I know :) - I'm not installing JIT manually - it's on by default in the rom I currently testing, which is;

Rom : FeraLab v20 Final

Kernel : 2.6.29-FeraKernel-v2.7

Android version : 2.3.9

Baseband : 2.1.71

So, like I mentioned earlier, I disabled JIT on that setup.

Whilst it gets rid of the lags and freezes in general, unfortunately, Google Navigator still caused reboots of the SO-01B. It's a real show-stopper for me.

I'm about to wipe and install with a different rom. I'll report back my findings.

Regards.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeliumX10:
Remember that you need to clean dalvik cache when you change anything about JIT. Eventually cache partition format and full wipe.

But, disabling JIT is complete nonsense. It has been developed to run apps faster and more natively. Thats why every android before 2.2 was laggy and there were tons of methods how to enable JIT on older systems. And thats why it is enabled by default on 2.3´and later systems.

So if you have some lags, they are surely NOT caused by JIT. Try to clean your system, dalvik cache and make full wipe. Remember also few minutes to settle every ROM is needed.
