The keyboard light is only on, but always on, when the screen is on for me.

The B key works fine on my device

Wifi works better than ever and I have had no issues

No issues with media

No location issues

Gps Seems to work so far

No data issues.

No call issues.
[Motorola Droid 3] afonsoft:
any sign

I did the tests and went without any sign, tried to create an APN also did not work.

I did the same procedure.

We did something wrong? What is the correct procedure?

Thanks.
[Motorola Droid 3] the_linkin3000:
I read some time ago about this app and figured it could help shortening the wait when a new build comes, and is specially helpful now that we have rom slots, since we don't have to wipe the safe side to change roms. http://www.xda-developers.com/android/cut-rom-transfer-time-with-ota-creator/.
[Motorola Droid 3] amedeh123:
use this patch

i was able to get 2g and 3g signal but not data with it
[Motorola Droid 3] lewrydiboys:
I'm considering sell this phone. Thank you for your hard work.
[Motorola Droid 3] Faideelah:
Thanks for sharing but I wasn't able to get signal at all. Did you flash this before flashing the rom?

My flash order is

ROM

GApps

Patch

I'm currently using Steel Droid 5.6(ICS) for now until I can get data working on JB.
[Motorola Droid 3] amedeh123:
I flash in the exact same order, and im using the 1103 build

i get signal on a brazillian GSM carrier... not sure about ATT
[Motorola Droid 3] darkcr0ss:
I installed the zip file but it booted up to 2.3.4 gingerbread...=/

Am I doing something wrong?

Help I want to try this jb
[Motorola Droid 3] Phibernaut:
It sounds like you just need to activate the ROM slot you installed to.
[Motorola Droid 3] Munckster:
Hi, I was able to get signal, but no data connection. Did you managed to connect to TIM data network?

Thanks in advance.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
So anyone found a working FM radio?

The JB one for defy doesn't work and neither does the one I used for GB
[Motorola Droid 3] djbolden:
None of the ones I've tried work. One seemed like it was going to, but never any audio.
[Motorola Droid 3] Munckster:
Try Spirit FM... At lease on my XT860 works..
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
That's not a FM scanner? It just plays USA radio via internet
[Motorola Droid 3] amedeh123:
Nope, no data at all

someone here on this thread was able to get it, but its buried, and involves turning stuff on and off various times

works nonetheless
[Motorola Droid 3] Munckster:
I'm trying to look for the thread.

It is in fact an FM Tuner... Not a streaming player...

There is a paid version of it, but this is a free version, provided for XDA users. Follows attached the free version that I downloaded from the thread that I'm trying to find... :)

Oh, one more thing: It'll ask for root access, and it is normal.
[Motorola Droid 3] SeiferTV:
That was rojocapo, I think.

But he was using a XT862.
[Motorola Droid 3] Kur@:
FM Radio from market working for me.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Doesn't work for me on CM10. Without headphone it says please connect.. with headphone it instantly closes
[Motorola Droid 3] darkcr0ss:
What do you mean?
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Go to boot options and select a ROM slot, press activate. Then install your new ROM and reboot
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
It will never work without headphones, they act as the antenna
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
I know....... i put it there so you guys wouldn't say "are you sure you put the antenna in". I also mentioned it doens't work WITH antenna...
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Lol. Ok then
[Motorola Droid 3] glennj99:
You beat me to it this time.
[Motorola Droid 3] darkcr0ss:
Do I select this boot options in the recovery?
[Motorola Droid 3] cobravnm13:
Yeah. After activating your ROM slot, go to the previous menu then press "install." Then choose and flash your ROM.

Edit: Make sure you're using SafeStrap 3 for D3.
[Motorola Droid 3] darkcr0ss:
Perfect it worked, Thanks alot!!!

now to find the gapps
[Motorola Droid 3] djbolden:
It worked! Thanks!! Now I have to decide which paid version I want.
[Motorola Droid 3] Munckster:
Good to know... There is a thread here at XDA where they post a free version every once in a while, like this one that I've attached. I'm not sure, but possibly there is a new version.

Now, let's keep struggling with the 3G connection... :)
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Hm radio didn't work on GB either.. I think there's some dirt in the connector :angel: whoops
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
Added a new CM9 build to the OP for those that want it. Right now i left the codecs on in that build so there's a total of 83MB being used which is probably way too high.

Hopefully in the next week, I'll get around to testing a new method for HD codecs that only uses 25MB. Then i can enable the codecs in JB builds again and change the over in the ICS build.
[Motorola Droid 3] hilokilo:
I just love how you keep up with us, Hash. We owe you lots...

Can I ask a simple question? Why does the codec take so much RAM?

Also, when you reduce the size, will it support only couple of hardware codecs? Thanks! I'm new to this!
[Motorola Droid 3] male6363@hotmail.com:
Hellooo sirs...

I did try CM10 version and AOK... Both of them did NOT start up working if i change screen dpi... Is there any solution for this? Because i dont like 240 dpi... Too BIG for me...

Thanks a LOT!
[Motorola Droid 3] slogar25:
Thanks man. Its awesome

Sent from my XT862
[Motorola Droid 3] Mibuix0r:
Is the keyboard fixed now in CM10 JB? I noticed the bold keyboard warning was removed in the beginning of the thread :)
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
I removed it, because I figured out the keyboard on my D3 was dying and wasn't sure if that was what everyone was seeing.

I'd like to know how the keyboard works on JB tho.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
All keys seem to work for me but not in all apps. @ opens e-mail account. (CM10)
[Motorola Droid 3] cobravnm13:
Everything seems to work for me, except the LEDs for alt and shift.
[Motorola Droid 3] Munckster:
Hi Hash,

Sorry about the maybe dumb question, but... Is it possible to Flash the CM9 with the 3.0.5 SS?
[Motorola Droid 3] cobravnm13:
You can only flash the new Kexec builds with SS3. Anything Kexec built after Oct 16 is only compatible with SS3.
[Motorola Droid 3] Munckster:
Thanks, mate.

I'll try last CM9 release then.
[Motorola Droid 3] eksempel_123:
I'm having major issues with calling. I can't recieve any calls, I can call out, but it is very unstable. SMS works fine. Currently on GSM network.
[Motorola Droid 3] Mibuix0r:
I take It there isn't any way to load a backup from SS1 to a rom slot in SS3 is there? Just forgot the way I had some of the old stuff set up :D
[Motorola Droid 3] Bobbar:
Not sure how that's possible. The same lights illumunate all the keys.
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
He means the little leds beside those keys that let you know its on alt-lock or caps lock
[Motorola Droid 3] Mibuix0r:
Everything is working great except for some reason some of my apps, specifically my wallpaper changer cant seem to access my storage correctly and it says they have invalid permission even though I can see them in the gallery. Also when I try to use a flashlight program it says "fail to open flash lamp" but I'm assuming thats because you haven't gotten the camera working.

BTW, keyboard is working great
[Motorola Droid 3] raiden:
I just upgraded from SS1 -> SS3 and now using CM10 1103 rom on my XT860 phone using the XT883 and I can't seem to get phone calls working. When using the pre KEXEC builds, I needed to get an updated build.prop file that would working with the XT883 radio. Is their one for CM10 that works with the XT883 radio?
[Motorola Droid 3] male6363@hotmail.com:
I did try the lastest CM9 (08/11/2012) and it is compatible with DPI change... Why jb is NOT?
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
Yeah. I've made one and someone else has. Search this thread.
[Motorola Droid 3] raiden:
First impressions so far after installing SS 3.05 and CM10 1103 and GAPPS with XT88x GSM patch.

- Very responsive

- Hard Keyboard works great.

- 3G/Wifi works great

Issues

- Battery percentage sometimes doesn't show/update the correct battery level.

- Sometimes after cold booting up the phone, the rom randomly doesn't load once in awhile. Just a black screen.

- RAM usage abit high?

Untested

- No camera

- HD Video or any videos.

- Battery drainage.

Any updates to any of the issues?
[Motorola Droid 3] hilokilo:
Good luck, pal. If you have problems with RAM right now, then you would probably suffer more when Hashcode gets the codec done. Just saying lol.

Besides, getting 170b RAM isn't bad at all.
[Motorola Droid 3] palmwangja:
Did you try out bluetooth?

In my cases, my com.android.phone doesn't seem to understand bluetooth at all, because it constantly FC'd. don't know why maybe it's related to 3G misbehavior. :(

[Motorola Droid 3] pm2gonzales:
I get bluetooth to work just fine. Connects to my car no problem.
[Motorola Droid 3] nemiroG1:
I have been reading this thread since it was first started, but have only just now decided I would try out the latest Kexec ROM. I installed SS3.05, and after getting the stock .906 working (on GSM for Straight Talk), and installing MAVROM 4.0 in slot 1, I decided that I would put the 11/03 build into slot 2. I have to say, when it actually works, it looks nice, but boy, I am having lots of problems!

First off, if the screen turns off, good luck getting it to come back up. I often have to pull the battery and reboot to get back in.

It often gets stuck saying that it is setting up or scanning the SD card (with the SD card icon in the notification bar), and it will stay there, never allowing me access to SDCARD-EXT

Putting the build.prop from earlier in this thread for GSM use results in the CM logo spinning, and never booting

I can install Titanium Backup from the Play Store, but the Pro Key for it will never install, and hence I can't get my apps restored that way

I know you guys are not having these issues, so does anyone have a clue as to what I am doing wrong to have these issues? I had been using SS2.10 and Eclipse 3.0, setup for GSM for months without issue. Any help you can lend would be greatly appreciated!
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Weird, I have none of those issues. CM10 is my daily now.. and the only bugs I have (apart from things not working like sensor, camera) is that it won't rotate properly when the keyboard is already open and I wake the phone, and that the battery indication is way off after reboot
[Motorola Droid 3] nemiroG1:
You are running it as GSM, correct? I know it sounds dumb, but could you go step by step on how you installed. Perhaps I will figure out what I am doing wrong.
[Motorola Droid 3] hilokilo:
Those are the only issue as well, but it still randomly reboots. Other than that, the ROM is very stable.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Yes, GSM in europe.

All I do is select ROM slot, wipe, and install. I have network = 3 in build.prop (added before-hand)
[Motorola Droid 3] Skreelink:
I have no issues with CM10 now. After first install, it took ~10-20 minutes for it to scan both SD cards, but subsequent reboots it mounts quickly like normal on boot. AFTER the SD card scan and reboot, the market started installing things correctly. My build.prop should work fine (Hashcode put a link to it in the OP in this thread; http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1973526), just make sure your permissions are set correctly. Uncheck the two VZW items under mobile networks, check enable global and GSM signal fix.

My post (with the build.prop) is here; http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=33102553&postcount=422 (as mentioned in previous link) for CM10 Kexec XT883 radio.

I use it fine on AT&T compatible Straight Talk, it actually has the correct APN already in the phone, although I edited it to add more to the APN type and remove the proxy (required for MMS though). Feel free to PM me about this, nemiroG1 if you require further help.

Setup; SS 3.05

Stock - Not working on GSM (com.android.phone FCs, too lazy to look into)

Slot 1 - MavROM 4.0 (Daily Driver; working GSM + HSPA Data)

Slot 2 - 11/3 Kexec CM10 (Testing slot; working GSM + HSPA Data)

First time:

Im new to this and was wondering do i install gapps with this??

Basically, could someone just briefly explain to me step by step on what i need for this... I would greatly appreciate it! TIA!:good:
[Motorola Droid 3] sd_shadow:
yes if you want google apps and access to play store

if it's a cm rom, you need gaaps

edit: if you haven't installed ss3 yet

watch How to install and use safe strap 3.05 on the droid 3 for true multi booting on ROMs

just use the ss3 for droid 3, doesn't require ics stock rom, like the bionic in the video

also another video SafeStrap V3.04 for Razr, Razr Maxx, D4, Bionic, and D3!
[Motorola Droid 3] swirly05:
is this is why im stuck on the "M" logo... :D thanx man! :good:
[Motorola Droid 3] sd_shadow:
what part did you do different?
[Motorola Droid 3] swirly05:
I was in CWM Recovery, Wipe Data/Cache, installed Kexec-JB 11/4/12, installed gapps 10/11/12 then reboot
[Motorola Droid 3] sd_shadow:
open bootstrap app, uninstall recovery

reboot, watch video
[Motorola Droid 3] swirly05:
thanx man! im sbf'n right now and i believe i can manage from here (thanx to your help), really appreciate it! :good:
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
Make sure you grab the new Safestrap 3.05 for Droid 3 vs the 2.10 mentioned in that video:

http://blog.hash-of-codes.com/downloads/safestrap/
[Motorola Droid 3] swirly05:
yeah it took me awhile but I got it... just be sure, is everyone running the "KEXEC-JB-aokp_solana_unofficial_Nov-04-12" ??

To me it seems to be the most sable (for me). Thank you all for the help
[Motorola Droid 3] sd_shadow:
you have four slots, i say fill them up

but that may just be me
[Motorola Droid 3] swirly05:
Yeah! Thats the only rom im running, what are the others?? Whats the best rom? What are you running??

Thank you for being here for a noob like me :good:
[Motorola Droid 3] sd_shadow:
if you want a rom with working camera

try steel droid ics 5.6, or gb 4.8
[Motorola Droid 3] amedeh123:
this steel droid has both full working cameras or only picture snapping?
[Motorola Droid 3] PEZ Dispenser:
Safestrap 3 question

If I remember correctly, somewhere in this thread it said that I only want to use Safestrap 3 on my D3. Does that mean that I don't want to use Safestrap 3.05?

According to this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8KOcnHJjHM&feature=youtube_gdata_player I want to use Safestrap 3.05.

Can someone confirm which version I should spend my time installing?

Thank you!
[Motorola Droid 3] lotzakritters:
3.05 is the current one out. Use that 1
[Motorola Droid 3] PEZ Dispenser:
I'm still on safestrap 1.0 or something right now. If I uninstall 1.0 and install 3.05 will my current rom and safe system work out of the box? I'm making an nandroid backup and backing everything else up just in case as well. I'm just wondering if a backup of my current rom from safestrap 1.0, an old AOKP build, will work with 3.05 or will I need to grab a fancy new kexec build right away to start having fun?
[Motorola Droid 3] swirly05:
which rom has working BT (BlueTooth)??
[Motorola Droid 3] cobravnm13:
You'll have to reflash your ROM after switching to 3.05. Backups are not compatible.
[Motorola Droid 3] pm2gonzales:
AFAIK they all have bluetooth working, just make sure it's switched off when not connected to anything, otherwise it may create issues with sound.
[Motorola Droid 3] sd_shadow:
steel droid ics 5.6 not full functioning

Steel Droid gb 4.8 should be full functioning
[Motorola Droid 3] hilokilo:
Virtual keyboard has crashed my phone multiple of times. Hopefully this can be fixed.
[Motorola Droid 3] enigmaco:
Hey everyone this is a little off topic but still relevant to this discussion, I just updated rom toolbox and I notice now that there is access to the roms hash has now. I don't know about anyone else, but it is a little bit of a step saver for me. Hope this is useful for someone if not than sorry for taking up the space. :good:
[Motorola Droid 3] hilokilo:
I find this useful, thanks!
[Motorola Droid 3] davibs:
Is hashcode working for Full Hw Acc?

Any hope?

or we will NEVER get a fully working Ics / JB rom?

Thanks..!
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Last I heard he was working on getting HW acc/video codecs driver that used less RAM. Since D3 only has 512MB ram it originally it would take up too much RAM and make JB very slow
[Motorola Droid 3] davibs:
But ics can run on 512mb i think.

Look at lg optimus dual.

512mb ram, jb fully working.

And others examples.

I'm new with droid 3, so sorry if i ask old things.

Also Xperia u, low ram, fully working ics.

Maybe i'm wrong, but a lot of devices with low ram have ics fully working.

thanks for the work of the developers,an dthe time that they spend for us.
[Motorola Droid 3] SeiferTV:
Ram is not the issue.

The real problem here is the fact that there are no available drivers for our device's hardware.
[Motorola Droid 3] davibs:
Exactly what i was thinking.

so we don't have any possibility?
[Motorola Droid 3] SeiferTV:
If it was that simple to discard our chances, hash wouldn't be working on it, don't you think?

Be patient, people, stop trying to decide if we're going to be getting a full working rom or not.

Let the devs work, and support them, but let's not jump into conclusions.
[Motorola Droid 3] davibs:
I only asked, I did not say "we have no chance." I thought this droid 3 was abandoned, and then I felt the need to ask if they will never have a stable ics / jb / 4.2.

I have not taken any conclusions and I did not put anyone in a hurry.
[Motorola Droid 3] Bobbar:
Have you tried a non-stock keyboard?
[Motorola Droid 3] hilokilo:
Yeah. I've tried Google Korean keyboard, but that has the same effect.
[Motorola Droid 3] palmwangja:
Just out of curiosity, why doesn't kexec accept this camera patch?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1510485

I could use the camera even if it doesn't have a camcorder.... :D
[Motorola Droid 3] sd_shadow:
isn't that like asking why gingerbread camera app doesn't work on ics roms?
[Motorola Droid 3] switchblade920:
To give you a much clearer answer, that patch is designed for CM9 builds running on the old gingerbread kernel/ducati setup. It's basically a hack. Because of KEXEC, we are running a proper ICS/JB kernel and that needs it's own ducati binary that works in a different way, hence why the hack doesn't work. Regardless of anything anyone does at this stage, the cameras wont work because either a) the ducati binary doesn't have camera support, b) the ducati binary has been removed altogether for various reasons and c) kernel-level drivers haven't been fully implemented as of yet.
[Motorola Droid 3] palmwangja:
Thanks for the clarification, one more question though:

do we still have the old "bluetooth on but not connected" bug on this kexec build?? Obviously, this was one of the showstopper.

We all root for hashcode, go! go!
[Motorola Droid 3] pgzerwer:
Took a leap and installed the 1104 AOKP Kexec on my ROM slot 2 - pretty impressed so far with stability and speed compared to my MAVROM 4.0 on ROM slot 1 - but, and I don't want to sound whiny about this, the AOKP ROM has a pretty slim selection of ringtones and notification tones and I am not wild about them. Where in the world are the other ringtones for my other ROMs hidden so I can copy and past my favorites? I feel pretty dim already not being able to find them on my own, so please be gentle in any assistance you can provide. Thanks
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
The patch worked because Hash had but the camera software in the ROM before but couldn't get it to work because ducati wasn't working right. Someone made that patch and basically sent the image buffer to the phone and bypassed all the hardware.
[Motorola Droid 3] doogald:
They are usually in /system/media/audio - separate folders for /ringtones, /notifications, /alarms, etc. If you copy that folder structure out to SD or internal storage and they will be available to all ROMs (though you will see duplicates in the ROMs that already have them.)

(They folders just need to be called /notifications, /ringtones, etc. - they can be anywhere on the card. Off the root, in a folder called /media/audio (which is where I usually put my ringtones), in /foo/bar/ringtones - they will all work.
[Motorola Droid 3] pgzerwer:
Thanks, it worked. A little clunky having to activate and launch the other ROM just so you can copy the ringtones out of the system folder, but once done it's done.
[Motorola Droid 3] doogald:
Well, another way is to unzip the ROM file and find the media there, but at least SS 3 makes it quicker than the old way...
[Motorola Droid 3] hilokilo:
it just got so quiet all the sudden...

I wonder how Hash is doing.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
I saw something about android 4.2

TBH, I would work on getting 4.1 to work better before trying to get 4.2 to work.

:angel:
[Motorola Droid 3] daimerion:
+1

Getting everything working b4 upgrading os would be ideal but looking @ the pattern of development this has not been the case.

Still though, thanks for all the work Hash. Much appreciated!
[Motorola Droid 3] gadgetrants:
I guess I see it both ways -- the jump to SS 3.0 and touch-based recovery has been a quantum leap forward, not only in terms of moving us up to JB but also recovery management. Personally, having a working camera would probably be my main qualm, but other than that the shift from ICS to JB has been pretty good.

-Matt
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Yes, the shift from ICS to JB has been pretty good because hash worked on the D3 kernel.. not because of the switch to JB itself.

I don't think getting JB 4.2 for D3 should be a priority when 4.1 JB for D3 still has some bugs (apart from camera not working).

Unless hash deliberately wants all the versions for all the phones to be the same so they all get the same update!

Or.. unless migration to 4.2 is very easy

:)
[Motorola Droid 3] hilokilo:
I think its memory management still needs to be worked on because it slows down real fast.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Try using strict memory management in rom toolbox. My CM10 hardly slows down.
[Motorola Droid 3] gadgetrants:
Wow, thanks! You healed my phone. :)

-Matt
[Motorola Droid 3] hilokilo:
Wow dude! This actually helped a lot! Thanks!

When using bluetooth to connect to PC's speakers, microphone doesn't respond.
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
It's amazing BT works at all. I don't think Hash has done anything to it.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Well many bluetooth service don't work.

Btw yesterday I didn't hear anything nd wasn't heard during a phonecall but I never touched BT. I was listening to FM radio, maybe it has trouble switching between audio sources
[Motorola Droid 3] raiden:
Since installing CM10 (11/03), The performance has been great. I have noticed that battery does drain faster then the non-kexec version. I changed my cpu frequency to go from 1200 to 1008. I guess some more "deep sleep" tweaks need to be applied?
[Motorola Droid 3] hilokilo:
Any updates from Hash?
[Motorola Droid 3] alex2539:
hey guys

Do you know if swap is enabled ?
[Motorola Droid 3] lunacie:
After installing safserap 3.04 and hash's cm9 kex I can't get back into recovery. Reboot, press menu to go into recovery, but cm9 boots every time. So far I've done battery pull, re ran recovery script in safe strap, but no bueno yet. Anybody run into this / have a fix?

Thanks...
[Motorola Droid 3] pgzerwer:
Power off, then hold power and M key, scroll (volume down) to bottom selection, volume up and you will go into Safestrap. That may fix it for just the one time, maybe for a while.
