I am always on a different rom and always on the safesystem and just install the newest safestrap, right ontop the the older one. Hash said you can un-install or you can just install right over the top of the other 2.0. I haven't ever had any issues doing it that way. I've beed using Hashes safestrap from day one too.
[Motorola Droid 3] hotpl8:
I just installed the app right over in safe, then installed recovery, rebooted, and it worked like a charm
[Motorola Droid 3] mikeymike75:
I wiped and flashed, everything seems to be working perfectly.
[Motorola Droid 3] Willis111:
That's good news. Got a woody for a new build myself. zomg, I haven't flashed anything in like 2 weeks!!!1 one one. My flashing disorder is going into overdrive lol.
[Motorola Droid 3] nasty007:
+1 i need to flash something !!!!!!!!!!!!
[Motorola Droid 3] niko99:
+ 1 me tooo

... probably Hash dont relase any new version of Kexec build if they dont get cam wroking ...

but for example new build without cam but with battery drain fix and overheating will be also great :D
[Motorola Droid 3] nasty007:
i agree, for me camera is not on first place, if drain is fixed then it will be my DD
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
I think Hash wants to do the camera.
[Motorola Droid 3] SeiferTV:
I don't wanna be that guy, but, come on, guys, first things first. It's logical to want to get all hardware working first.
[Motorola Droid 3] amedeh123:
i agree with you people, camera is not important for me, if it snaps pics its a bonus (just like non-kexec cm9, even tho its an ugly hack)

im currently using cm7.2 as my daily driver because its stable and incredibly smooth and lightweight, even without camera

i would compile a new build for myself from the git repo, just to see if theres any improvement, but we are talking kernel, not ROM, may be potential harm to the device
[Motorola Droid 3] AragornPE:
I don't know why all the rush about it. A few weeks back we had no hope on this device, and now there is a great dev trying to make it great. At least let the guy do his thing, if he thinks that camera is essential, then it's essential. Plus, I think he is dedicating so much on that, I he must have something already working and is just tweaking it.
[Motorola Droid 3] enigmaco:
Good things come to those who wait woosah
[Motorola Droid 3] amedeh123:
i agree with you, if it wasnt for him, i would be stuck on 2.3 motoblur forever

im just kinda anxious to see my d3 with a full-blown ics/jb rom on it
[Motorola Droid 3] chayes627:
Been running alpha 4 for a few days. Battery is fairly close to normal for me. Usually can make it from 6am til 9pm on a charge sitting at 25% now so about 2 hours short. Phone has been a little warmer during use but not to bad. Games work much better and wifi is great. Fyi was on aokp non kexec prior to this.
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
How much much time does your display spend on? That's the biggest factor for battery life. I can make gb last 40 hours if I'm not using it, or like 5 hours if I use it non stop.. Since display is the biggest consumer of battery, that will give me an idea what kind of battery life I could expect.
[Motorola Droid 3] chayes627:
2.5 or so
[Motorola Droid 3] skyng22003:
Download links and mirror both down?

Anybody has a mirror to the latest alpha build?

Thanks

The built in that link is the 08/06/2012 build.
[Motorola Droid 3] djbolden:

[Motorola Droid 3] Tomsgt:
Just found what I think is a new kexec for the DROID 3 at rombitch.com it is dated 8-22-12. I don't have my DROID 3 with me right now to try it. Can someone check it out. :D:D
[Motorola Droid 3] nasty007:
this build is bootlooping for me, something is wrong with AudioPolicyService

:(
[Motorola Droid 3] switchblade920:
I'm downloading it now to have a poke around the ZIP, but I think we ought to wait for Hash to chime in on this one first, just to make sure it's safe.
[Motorola Droid 3] Tomsgt:
Yeah just saw it on there and thought some one should check it.
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
Hi guys,

I apologize for the undue excitement about that 8/22 build. I'm not sure why DHacker put that there. Rombitch is his download site, but he doesn't have a D3, Bionic or Droid 4 to test builds.

Yesterday, I made some pretty massive changes in the organization of all our files on github, so now I'm going back through each build and fixing the breakage.

Why such large build breaking changes?

1. We needed to consolidate our device vendor files. When updates were pushed, they were only hitting 1 build, or even 1 branch of a build (like say CM but not AOKP, etc.) Leaving other builds for the same OS on old files causing problems that would only show up in 1 build case.

2. Then, the other day, I spent a day and a half troubleshooting something that was just a bad build setup.

3. And we're obviously working on JB in spare time. I want that setup to be "right".

Hence large scale files being shifted around so that every build depends on the same vendor files, and better setup practices for devices, etc.

Going forward supporting builds and doing updates should be much smoother.
[Motorola Droid 3] nasty007:
Thanks for the info Hash

Maybe we should wait for you to confirm new build but we saw it flash it.

It is no harm done but next time i will wait your announcement.

Thanks
[Motorola Droid 3] AragornPE:
Any news on the camera issues?
[Motorola Droid 3] Tomsgt:
Sorry if I caused any problems hash. I saw it there and didn't know if it was new or what it was that's why I said to have someone check it out.
[Motorola Droid 3] calash:
They were able to take care of that potential invasion of privacy by disabling the camera.

:)
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
First, I'd like to apologize again for the earlier build which was placed in a spot where it seemed like it was a good enough build to try. Hopefully, that doesn't happen again.

I hate to tease like that, so I did some testing and cleanup...

I'd like to share a PREVIEW of CM10 for the Droid 3.

Download here:

BUG FIX NEEDED -- REPLACING TONIGHT

md5sum: 9cad5f9483a96ffdc46ce97cf8014141

This is the same kexec kernel used in the CM9 builds, so expect all of the same issues:

- No Camera

- Kernel is new and needs to be hammered on

- HARD KEYBOARD is bad in JB. I would just avoid it entirely. I'm going to add the debounce code sent over to me in a bit.

NOTES:

- Data is relatively untested at the moment (no active SIM for me). JB changed a lot of the RIL code and many phones are having issues. Wouldn't surprise me if we had issues too.

- I'm going to be turning SWAP on in the next build. When I was playing with this, I noted that many processes were unloading due to memory limits. It's VERY tight memory wise.

- I also noted that using the built-in Wifi AP caused the device to start crashing pretty hard. So stay away from that.

Enjoy.

cm10 not booting in anyone elses xt860?
[Motorola Droid 3] linuxgator:
I'm getting CyanogenMod boot animation and it just keeps cycling, though I've got an XT862 w/XT883 radio.
[Motorola Droid 3] Kaptinkrunk:
Its nice to see development flowing for d3 sorry trolling for a friend, I knew the d3 was going the be good!

Fascinating AOKP Jelly Bean Build 1 Devil 1.2.1...
[Motorola Droid 3] amedeh123:
exacly like me, so its not xt860-specific...
[Motorola Droid 3] michalakis:
same problem here .... Unlocked GSM XT862
[Motorola Droid 3] Phibernaut:
No stairway? Denied!

XT862
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
Hrm.

Sorry about that, I'll debug this last build as well. Maybe I didn't do a full wipe/re-install when I was testing it or something.

JELLYBEAN/CM10 PREVIEW #2 [2012-08-24] http://bit.ly/T2wxPu

md5sum: ffdad5a9af9b599bc2a433309104a1f3

(Fixed the bootloop)

This is the same kexec kernel used in the CM9 builds, so expect all of the same issues (see below):

- No Camera

- Kernel is new and needs to be hammered on

- HARD KEYBOARD is bad in JB. I would just avoid it or make sure you press good and firm. I'm going to add the debounce code sent over to me in a bit.

NOTES:

- Data is relatively untested at the moment (no active SIM for me). JB changed a lot of the RIL code and many phones are having issues. Wouldn't surprise me if we had issues too.

- This build now has SWAP turned on. I didn't notice it much while I was playing with it. So it'll probably need some tweaks.

- I also noted that using the built-in Wifi AP caused the device to start crashing pretty hard. So stay away from that.
[Motorola Droid 3] tobby88:
Did a wipe of /system, /data, /cache and Dalvik-cache to have a clean phone. Installed your new CM10 build and the JB gapps. After the first start it ran veeery slowly until it crashed and rebooted. Now its working well, fast, smooth, ... But: I don't have any mobile network. I am using GSM, can't connect at all.
[Motorola Droid 3] Olavo:
nice work with CM10 for Droid 3!

Works fine in my Brazilian XT862 but not detect the sim card :(

I have to upgrade the Safestrap to 2.10 in 1.08 the system not boot.
[Motorola Droid 3] linuxgator:
The new build works quite well on my Droid 3. Can't say whether the cellular data works as the phone isn't currently activated and don't have a SIM card to test on it though.
[Motorola Droid 3] rufh_s:
Bravo! If gsm/data gets resolved this would be my daily :)

Doesn't work:

*No phone I use GSM,tried everything I can *#*#info#*#* no matter what I select gsm only,wcdma,lte...etc its "unknown" and on settings/about there's NO baseband version

* google now

* not sure if project butter working :) but its quite good then ics kexec

* camera (ofcourse)

* EDIT: apollo/play music not picking music files..same with gallery not picking images from external ssd works fine with file manager

What works:

* Hard kb every key works as it should,no issues at all

* wifi is rock solid :)

* sound

*h/w.. hd videos youtube

*flash (need to download apk,not available in market)

* chrome ( bit laggs initially would test it further)

* notification details as it should in JB

* no heating/battery drain issues as yet will report battery life usage

PS: can't find "screenshot" button ( a bit handy)

Thanks again for the hard work...batman and robin :o
[Motorola Droid 3] yus4eel:
So I'm confused is keyboard working or not in the JB build? And if I'm on verizon 3g I should be good too?
[Motorola Droid 3] niko99:
For Screenshot you must go to system/ power menu and mark Screenshot ;) its new in CM10

ps. phone dont see USB connecion
[Motorola Droid 3] skyng22003:
Can confirm Cellular issue cannot change network type, always remains unknown.

No GSM even with modifications to build.prop

But the build itself is extremely smooth ^^

Great work! :good:

I think only GSM/3G to sort out then would use as daily rom :D
[Motorola Droid 3] SeiferTV:
Sounds amazing, I'm being really tempted to test it!

Also, I have a patch I used for ICS that always solved my GSM/3g Issues. I'm thinking of testing it with this one, because, "why not?"

Might even help, for a change, lol
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
I'm seeing if playing with the build.prop will make it work but so far I got nothing. I may have to go back to ICS until we can get working GSM data. But other then that everything else works as good as ICS alpha 4. The alpha 4 883 build.prop doesn't work and I tried making a JB one and had no change. It just said "unknown" for the connection type.

Lookin good Hash!
[Motorola Droid 3] dsw361:
I'm assuming we need cm10 Gapps? Or is it included in this build?
[Motorola Droid 3] Olavo:
Seifer, I tried this path too, no sucess :(

When I flashed it, the phone not boot more
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
Hi Guys,

I'll see what I can do to test the data connection on my end. Right now every build is affected in our CM10 efforts (none have data).

I have a feeling once we fix 1 of the devices then they will all start working in some fashion, and that will allow for build.props to work, etc.

I also had an odd thought for xt860 users. With the devtree that is built into this ROM, you are running the device like its a xt862 (at least kernel wise). I wonder how a patch for both build.prop and devtree would work.
[Motorola Droid 3] tobby88:
But is the data connection the only problem here? Because we don't even get any network signal (GSM, can't test CDMA) on the Droid 3.
[Motorola Droid 3] neilrl79:
On VZW I can't get phone/3G signal so I can't get past log in screen.
[Motorola Droid 3] nemiroG1:
Is your patch more than just the build.prop? Reason I ask is that I had trouble going from GSM enabled stock .906 to Eclipse. No matter what I tried it would not work. I found someone else's GSM version of MavROM 4.0, and installing that, and then installing Eclipse, with the usual build.prop tweaks makes it work. This leads me to believe there are some RIL's, or something else also being changed. This is odd, because all of the ICS builds out there seem to work by simply changing up build.prop.

At any rate, would love to hear more about your patch!
[Motorola Droid 3] yus4eel:
EDIT: Never mind, solved
[Motorola Droid 3] MrPib:
Right. I had to wait until wi-fi was available before I could do the setup.

Danm impressive build! The big problem is no *voice*. Looks like there's no APN.

EDIT: I have an XT862 on Verizon (CDMA voice and data).
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
If this JB build really does work as good as alpha #4 there's little reason to keep working on ICS (if signal/data gets fixed obviously).

Either way I still need camera for either of them to be my daily :).

Thanks!
[Motorola Droid 3] Kaptinkrunk:
I can't wait for jb for d3

Fascinating AOKP Jelly Bean Build 1 Devil 1.2.1...
[Motorola Droid 3] SeiferTV:
Just installed this and, Oh, Sweet God it's AMAZING.

Now, to a (slightly?) more useful information:

Much like another user reported:

-No GSM. Not even finding networks on settings.

-Google now seemed to just open a plain browser google window for every search I tried.

-User interface is just incredibly smooth and all those pretty words.

-Apollo/play and the gallery seemed to work fine, altho' It could be since I have all my media in the internal storage.

-HW keyboard is working great ( even the backlight )

-Wifi is working perfectly ( I can even connect to WPA, which I couldn't before )

-Sound, and wired headset seem to work fine too

-GPS is working perfectly.

-FM Radio didn't work, but, my headset is kind of messed up, so, maybe it's just me

-Rebooting turned my phone off to a state where I had to pull the battery, then plug it in ( got into charging mode ) then pull the plug, reboot, then power it on again.

That's about it, had to go back to ICS because I needed the signal.

GREAT work, really. Love at first touch with JB.
[Motorola Droid 3] MyNarwhalBacon:
Thanks for all your hard work Hash! Amazing!
[Motorola Droid 3] amedeh123:
heres my feedback for the brazillian xt860:

- phone/data/signal/etc does not work at all, xt860 patch causes no boot

- ram usage is extremely high and multitasking is also extremely bad, even worse than in kexec ICS

- scrolling, and the overall phone seems stuttery compared to what JB seems to be, even on less powerful phones (cm7 is smoother than cm10 right now)

- google voice search is a lot of fun to play with :P (works better with US english set as language for those wondering)

seems fine other than that, apollo is working ok (my media is on external storage), HW keyboard seems ok too, but i havent tested it so much yet...

the rom seems very stable, i had no crashes, overall nice preview build, with very few issues so far

also Hashcode rocks, the future of this phone looks promising because of him :good:
[Motorola Droid 3] glennj99:
I understand your preference for JellyBean over IceCreamSandwich.

I have been using ICS on my Kindle Fire, thanks to #Code, for a while and I switched to JB on the Fire (again thnx to #Code) recently...

I am not sure I prefer JellyBean.

I have my actual phone account active now on my Verizon LTE Galaxy Nexus which is stuck on ICS 4.0.4 due to Verizon being total asshats as usual. But, ignoring the fake "nexus" issue on Verizon for a second, I am actually quite happy with ICS 4.0.4 on the Nexus. In fact, since I updated from ICS to JB on the Fire I am finding that I sort of miss the UI and flow of ICS on the Fire.

JB seems to me to be a bit MORE resource intensive. I like the idea of Butter, but I don't see (on the Fire, with Hash's alpha releases so far) that Butter really doesn't make much difference in the user experience on the Fire. Might be a ROM implementation issue, I am not sure about that, but in general I like ICS better in a lot of ways.

Not sure if I will eventually prefer JB over ICS, after things settle down, but for now I just have to wonder. I hope that ICS will continue to be built for the Droid3 and the Kindle Fire, because it might be a better OS version for these devices. Really.

In fact, I am not sure that when Verizon eventually gets off their lazy worthless asses and releases JellyBean OTA for my Verizon Galaxy Nexus that it will be an improvement over ICS 4.0.4...

All that said, I do agree that the camera not working is not a show-stopper for me. The Fire doesn't even have a camera, for example, and its a lot of fun now its no longer deliberately gimped by Amazon.

[Motorola Droid 3] male6363@hotmail.com:
No GSM?

I love this ROM so much... Everything seems much much more better... Of course there is much more things to do... But i like this work so much... I want to use this ROM daily... But i couldnt talk and there is no 3g or 2g DATA... is there any way to fix this?

Thanks a LOT!
[Motorola Droid 3] neilrl79:
I beg to differ the smoothness and feel of my fire increased dramaticly going from ICS to JB. It was a major improvement.
[Motorola Droid 3] SeiferTV:
Oh, yes indeed, it was. I was quite pleasantly shocked by the vast improvement in the smoothness of the graphical interface.

( This thread is now a "talk like a sir" thread)
[Motorola Droid 3] DroidXY:
Some posts ago, somebody said something aboubt hashcode build always newest roms. Here we go again.
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
I took some time today to fix the ics builds that were broken over the last few days (5 devices). I'll be putting a new build up on the site later tonight, for those who still want to use ics.

Not much has changed with that build tho, so it will just be a CM9 refresh.
[Motorola Droid 3] leerpsp:
hey do you guys think that this will one day sim unlock are phones with out buying a unlock code because it lests us run a new kernel i was just asking i know its dumb to ask something like this but i was thinking what the hell y not ask lol.
[Motorola Droid 3] MyNarwhalBacon:
sorry no.
[Motorola Droid 3] tobby88:
in the system information it says it has only 361MB RAM. I think this was more in ICS?
[Motorola Droid 3] MyNarwhalBacon:
Yeah because ICS requires a little bit less resources to run. Jellybean will be tricky to get working perfectly on our phones... I hope there is a way to free up more resources for it to properly run. If we have a working JB, we may not be able to play any games with 3D graphics like GTA or NFS games.
[Motorola Droid 3] xstrike9999:
A few bugs I've noticed with the ICS Alpha #4 build:

Some apps show up as incompatible for the ICS build, i.e. they don't appear in the store at all (Angry Birds is one), audio/audi sync issues in some apps (Agent Dash) and I can't seem to enter special characters in web pages opened in chrome with the physical keyboard (mostly happens when entering usernames and passwords.)

That said, the Alpha Build is working great for me and I can't wait till this reaches Beta or better yet, a final build.

Hashcode has done some excellent work!

P.S. Now please fix the camera so we can have a proper ROM for daily use. :)
[Motorola Droid 3] gravenimage:
well, i can verify that data doesnt work, mainly due to the radio not working at all. about phone says that the baseband is unknown. runs pretty hot so far, but graphics are smooth and pretty after it loads up completely. wifi seems to be working fine. all in all, a really cool preview, and once again, im on the edge of my seat for another build to try :)
[Motorola Droid 3] niko99:
Data must be around the corner ;)

from Hashcode twitter

Hashcode ‏@Hashcode0f

Data getting closer for the Moto devices ...
[Motorola Droid 3] xstrike9999:
Buttons and keyboard keys don't light up in the ICS build either...
[Motorola Droid 3] yus4eel:
They only work on auto-brightness. If you want, for instance, a lower brightness setting, I would suggest using an app like screen filter to do this
[Motorola Droid 3] amedeh123:
Yeah it was, but it has to do with the new kernels, not the roms... with non-kexec ics the ram was the same as stock GB and cm7

probably something to do with ducati and gfx, but i really hope theres a "fix" for this... its the only thing keeping me from using kexec cm9, and probably will be with cm10

my offtopic rant about this: all android devices i had, suffered from ram issues, i really think manufacturers should stop packing quadcore and unnecessarily powerful processors in the devices, and start putting a decent amout of ram in all devices, THIS would futureproof them a lot and make multitasking in android so much better

i would happily trade my dualcore processor for a single core one if it had 1gb-2gb ram
[Motorola Droid 3] SeiferTV:
Hash is implementing swap aswell, so ram issues should not be so severe.
[Motorola Droid 3] rblanca:
It's not the same... myabe it can help a little if you are swaping between differents apps but apps who requiere more ram than the avaible will be slow as hell... but maybe in future, when everything are more stable and hash have free time to look this :)
[Motorola Droid 3] amedeh123:
swap is already there since the 1st kexec kernel afaik, its just enabled by default now on JB

i would also advise to use it on the external mmc, as it can be replaced in case of wear de to excessive read/writes
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
Please don't let the amount of RAM shown in the device screen throw you off.

Previous Moto kernels don't pre-allocate for various services like camera, codecs and other kernel features. So the RAM # is higher.

In TI's stock kernel there are a series of pre-allocated blocks of memory and you're seeing the amount left over afterward.

The main reason for the memory issues this last build has is our experiments with a new camera driver. That driver is also pre-allocating 32m to use for video recording and burst image capture.

I can do a kernel only .zip w/o that driver for people who would like to compare the difference.

And to account for the extra 32m used, in the future, I'm going to remove the camera driver from the ducati and try to shrink the current allocation by at least that 32m.

Basically we just need some time to iron out the memory issues.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
So what did the experiment with the new camera driver tell you? ;)
[Motorola Droid 3] SeiferTV:
I'm more curious about data right now, That's the only thing stopping me from using JB as a DD
[Motorola Droid 3] rufh_s:
I am just curious by "data" it means gsm calls too right? YES if that's fixed JB would be my DD too
[Motorola Droid 3] SeiferTV:
Yup, I mean calls and 2g/3g I guess I could have been more specific, lol
