[Motorola Droid 3] ElfinJNoty:
So I broke down my girlfriend again to letting me play with(as she calls it) or rather fix her phone.

Going to give this new version a go this evening(she's still on 1.55) but I wanted to get some verification things are going well for those using so far(I know it hasn't been long) She is a "swype"er so want to make sure that has worked for everybody... I installed the beta after flashing 1.55.

She has had a few moments of severe lag, and of course she starts opening up everything and tapping all the screen and buttons when it happens(imagine repeatedly clicking a mouse when your internet sucked back in the day)

She's also ever hungry for better battery. I considered playing with oc/UV options, but was hoping someone might be willing to share a safe settings they've used on there device as a starting point. Trying to find a good performance/battery combo... Or am I just better off leaving the currently set settings? Thanks in advance for any pointers

Thingsonaspring, great work and love how you remain active with your users and true to your initial focus for the rom. If the original Swype is better or smaller than the beta, I would put that back in(assuming I can just grab the apk from the stock slot and insert where I found it) but are there any advantages to just the original or any dependencies with that apk that would cause conflict?
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
What about the stock lock screen and replacing that?
[Motorola Droid 3] rhcp1253:
SS

The release note speak of flashing over stock, is the new ss out?
[Motorola Droid 3] thingonaspring:
Nope. I've been manually porting a safe system install over to stock by just mounting the partitions and shifting files over.

It's very dangerous and not much fun to do, so the new SS will be the best bet for getting minimoto onto stock, when it's released.
[Motorola Droid 3] daimerion:
No, it hasn't been "a day or so" yet apparently. No disrespect intended. Hash and every1 else are gods. Just impatience and frustration getting to me.
[Motorola Droid 3] doogald:
It seems to for me. You can disable prediction for the hardware keyboard in Swiftkey settings, if you wish to. I still find the predictions very useful.
[Motorola Droid 3] Jason Roach:
Found a force close. Contacts/menu/accounts. Otherwise, awesome job I can't wait to flash on safe system.
[Motorola Droid 3] thingonaspring:
@ Jason roach

Spooky, I was just looking at ripping out the exact piece of code that's causing the FC. One more good reason to kill it and replace it with something more efficient.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
I'm gonna wait for new safestrap

Hashcode0f:

its a minor bugfix, im looking at 3.13 with stock flashing fixes probably. Droid 3 update first tho.
[Motorola Droid 3] xstrike9999:
no patch to move to 1.7? :(
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
Dude with GB running so smooth you should try JB. :D
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Who?

What?
[Motorola Droid 3] doogald:
That's right. You must have missed this in his post announcing 1.7 yesterday...
[Motorola Droid 3] Phibernaut:
I had a few odd/random reboots to the "Android" startup logo while setting up apps, etc but the new build has been smooth since it settled in. Surprising how quickly this continues to improve & evolve. Thanks for all your work - I'm happy again with my D3.
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
No Thing I mean. He made a smooth ROM for GB a JB ROM would be boss.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Ah... Yeh, when this ROM is finished, he has my permission to switch to JB, hehehe :laugh:

A super stable, less = more, very fast JB rom would be nice. But i'm not sure I would use it as daily without camera.....
[Motorola Droid 3] Jason Roach:
Man your on top of it lol. As long as we can still retrive our google contacts I say go for it
[Motorola Droid 3] Uronlyfriend:
Screenshots, anyone?

First off, Thanks Spring, I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say thanks for your continued development and making this rom better. It definitely impressed a first time rom'er such as myself and am pleased to see all the improvements!

I'm still on 1.5 :P I know I need to make the jump, I've been both lazy as well as glued to my new nexus 7 :D But I've been feeling guilty so I really wanna update soon. But I'm a little concerned about the removal of the soft keyboard and the new themeing/icons that's apparently been done as well.

Anyone wanna be so kind as to post screenshots of the new digs? It would definitely ease my curiosity as to what 1.7 looks like. Also, the hackers keyboard, is there a portrait mode? I know Im being lazy, but on the play store it only has horizontal screens.
[Motorola Droid 3] Raa_1:
A suggestion (or two) if I may:

You've mentioned "addon-packs" before. Can we get these back for people that want things like the stock soft keyboard or data manager, and things like that which have been removed?

Also, is there a chance you've kept a journal of the entire changelog of what you've done? I wouldn't mind going over it to know exactly what's what - it's the tech inside me. :p

And yes i've just read the entire thread from page 1 to 42 ;)

Any word on stock lock screen - if it's not a goer, feel free to just say it won't/can't happen! :)
[Motorola Droid 3] cobravnm13:
I'm thinking that since he's done so well with this ROM, he should be more than capable of tackling CM7 for us. :) That is, if he's willing.
[Motorola Droid 3] ricky12:
I've just flashed this ROM. Thanks for the excellent work Thingonaspring, It definitely feels lighter than the ROM I had previously installed. :D
[Motorola Droid 3] lotzakritters:
That would be awesome
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
What exactly is wrong with the accounts thing? I'd rather not see any functionality removed from adding accounts ^^
[Motorola Droid 3] thingonaspring:
@doubleyoupee

The accounts bug is an FC when you goto contacts->menu->accounts. It's still linking to the old blur account manager, which is replaced with the normal android one.

It's a small fix to just relink the action behind that button.

@Raa_1

I've been expecting a request for a keyboard addon, and I do have a pre-optimised Hacker's keyboard APK that would be ideal.

I'll see what I can do for that and datamanager.

As far as a total journal of all changes - I don't really have that kind of detail. A lot of the work has gone down to the level of hand-modifying png/jpg files and decompiling/recompiling code, so it wasn't really practical to keep a detailed log of all that activity.
[Motorola Droid 3] Faideelah:
Is it just me or does GPS not lock? I've used Fasterfix to switch it to my region and everything, but it just searches for GPS forever.

Minimoto v1.7 for XT860

Trying to help, here it is a XT860 release of this nice ROM. I've been using custom ROMs for a while but this is the first time I did something in one of them. I'm running it right now.

Here it is the link:

http://d-h.st/Oqk

This is what I did to get this XT860 release:

1. copied omap-keypad.kcm.bin to system/usr/keychars. I've got the file from an old XT860 release of Minimoto.

2. Edited build.prop as shown here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=35087439&postcount=126

3. Added some lines to etc/apns-conf.xml to include some APNs from Brazil, where I'm from. =)

4. copied libmoto_ril.so to system/lib, also from an old XT860 release

I would like an explanation: What does the libmoto_ril.so library file represents? I understood what I did in the other three steps, but I would like to know what this lib is responsible for.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:

[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Ril is radio interface layer, it allows the radio and os to talk. The Ril is specific to particular radios and since the 860 and 862 have different radios...
[Motorola Droid 3] thingonaspring:
@docardoso

w00t! added link to first post.
[Motorola Droid 3] docardoso:
Shame on me. I wish I had seen that. I hope saying "Thank you for that" is still in time. :)
[Motorola Droid 3] Khiraji:
I'm also a fan of the dark theme (been using Mavrom for a few months now) - are you saying you successfully "re-integrated" some files from Mavrom into Minimoto to achieve the dark look, or just that it'd be cool if this were done/possible?
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
I'm saying you can just copy the .apks from mavrom and it works.

Settings.apk

Systemui.apk

Blurdialier/phone/contacts.apk (remove mini ones first)

LatinIME.apk
[Motorola Droid 3] docardoso:
thingonaspring, I just noticed I missed copying a file to system/usr/keylayout, having copied only the one to the keychars dir. Because of this the arrow keys of the physical keyboard don't work. Please change the link you put on the first post to Endroid's zip, as his release is correct:

http://d-h.st/SOc

For anyone who had already installed the ROM, it's attached the file you need to copy to system/usr/keylayout. Unzip, put it in the dir and reboot.

Sorry for the mistake.
[Motorola Droid 3] thingonaspring:
@docardoso

Done!
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
I just copy both directories, as I was never sure which file(s) was responsible and was too lazy to try each one
[Motorola Droid 3] Khiraji:
Awesome! Gonna try this now.
[Motorola Droid 3] nu2droid:
I know the keyboard file works... in stalled it the other day.
[Motorola Droid 3] slogar25:
Anybody seeing some random reboots? No rhyme or reason for me cant figure out what is crashing
[Motorola Droid 3] cobravnm13:
I've had about 2 since installing 1.7. Other than that, it's been great.
[Motorola Droid 3] thingonaspring:
I've seen random reboots, but only on first run of the ROM.

I believe it's due to the optimisation of flashplayer libs - there's a symlink from /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib to /system/lib/plugins/com.adobe.flashplayer.

This is done to save big duplication - 8.3mb of lib files stored in 3 locations (/system/lib, /data/data/lib/com.adobe.flashplayer and within the flashplayer APK file), totalling 24.9mb.

It's a bit tricky however, the symlink can only be created on first boot (once flashplayer APK has been deployed), and won't work at all until you've rebooted once.

Until that reboot, things can be unstable.

If you've seen a spontaneous reboot after first boot, then I'll be a lot more concerned.
[Motorola Droid 3] Phibernaut:
That seems to match my experience. Initial app installs and now an update have generated seemingly random reboots back to the Android boot screen. Play was working with Flash in both instances.
[Motorola Droid 3] nu2droid:
Yup, bout 3-4 since 1.7 install..
[Motorola Droid 3] lotzakritters:
None here what so ever. Not a one.
[Motorola Droid 3] singh.r:
Hii,

This ROM is awesome, many thanks for developing this.

Is there any way to get stock contact widget working on this? I love that drop down feature & used to of that on my home screen.

---------- Post added at 10:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:10 AM ----------

replace the /system/lib/libmoto_ril.so & /system/etc/ppp/peers/pppd-ril.option & /system/build.prop, from your working ROM & you should be fine.

---------- Post added at 11:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:28 AM ----------

Hi

Sharing it for help if someone facing same problem like me.

I am using XT883 radio for using GSM/CDMA both. Build prop change doesn't work without data wipe. But after data wipe I lost Network mode option & could use only GSM services. Also thingonaspring has told not to wipe data after flash.

So I created a buildprop.zip with modified build.prop as mentioned in your link & flashed Minimoto & buildprop zip together & it's working fine. Seems the changes has to be there before first boot (In my understanding).
[Motorola Droid 3] slogar25:
Unfortunately for me,mine could be hardware related i had to sbf back to stock. My screen is also dimmed substantially cant read screen outdoors and sometimes have to pull the battery to get it off the lockscreen.

I do however think something in last build was a little unstable for me at least. Maybe a combo in my case since something hardware related is failing on my device.

Thank you for everything you have done for our phones it truley is the best rom out for the droid 3
[Motorola Droid 3] Jason Roach:
@thing pmed you
[Motorola Droid 3] slogar25:
Fair well to the droid 3, my phone was broken and I just got a new one. I want to say thanks to thingonaspring for all the work you did for us. It certainly was fun and I hope you keep developing not just for the droid 3 but hope to see you venture to other devices and other ROMs as well. Good luck to everyone hear and I really hope to see a working kexec.

Peace.

What would make my music players quit playing when the screen turns off?
[Motorola Droid 3] Tranzior:
I view next problem: national rouming do not work.
[Motorola Droid 3] Nschneider7:
Anyone else noticing that it takes an extra try or two to get the lockscreen up? Is that a Holo Locker thing? Was wondering this today while at work why after installing v1.7 I was running into this. Not really a problem cause I like how its easier to unlock using the volume controls anyways. Other than that I'm really impressed at not only how well this runs but how well it looks. Really am digging how you close to ICS you can get a Blurred Gingerbread.
[Motorola Droid 3] cobravnm13:
Kinda late reply, but yes, I've noticed this too. I believe I've noticed this on other ROMs as well, so I don't think it's Holo, or this ROM, specifically. I'm using GO Locker and Next Launcher, btw.

VPN

Anyone able to connect VPNs? I'm trying to setup a PPTP connection for Hide IP VPN and it's immediately saying "Attention: Unable to connect to this network. Do you want to try again?"

This same VPN setup was working before I flashed minimoto.

As a side note, could anyone help with getting back regular gapps?
[Motorola Droid 3] doogald:
Which ones? Most of them exist in the market.
[Motorola Droid 3] Tranzior:
GoogleTalk you can find at xda treads, and flash it using CWM.
[Motorola Droid 3] majatt:
I got talk thanks, I just need the VPN working and I'm golden.
[Motorola Droid 3] majatt:
Over clocking isn't happening for me either. GPU over clock is fine but any attempt to modify the mpu file results in an immediate reboot. Even if I do:

# su

# echo 3 1000000000 61

Or 13750000 instead of 61

I get an immediate reboot.
[Motorola Droid 3] thingonaspring:
Hi All,

I'm gently working on a 1.71 update patch.

I'll look into a fix for "Hide IP VPN" - can you confirm that's the name of the app in question?

I use juniper VPN, which works, so I doubt the HideIP problem is a difficult thing to find.

I'm also chasing another small bug when using wifi password backup from the store.

Can anyone link me to a good global APN list?

Apart from that, I'm theming settings and a few other apps, and doing the usual round of optimisations - this ROM just keeps giving up more space.
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
I had that problem. Google the opptimizer page and download the solana zip and flash it in SS.
[Motorola Droid 3] cobravnm13:
Sooooo, how about that CM7? :D Have you considered looking into it? I love your ROM, btw. Best GB ROM for the D3.
[Motorola Droid 3] thingonaspring:
Are you doing this :-

su

insmod /system/lib/modules/symsearch.ko

insmod /system/lib/modules/overclock.ko

echo 3 1000000000 61 >/proc/overclock/mpu_opps

And it reboots?

What do you get if you type :-

su

insmod /system/lib/modules/symsearch.ko

insmod /system/lib/modules/overclock.ko

cat /proc/overclock/*
[Motorola Droid 3] majatt:
Search this thread for build.prop there is a line to be added that enables 'roaming data' which for some odd reason is necessary for local roaming with a sim.
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
Like I said, he needs to flash the 890 solana Opptimizer CWM zip. I had that same issue and found out it's because this ROM is designed for the 906 SBF/kernel but I'm still on 890 and had that issue.
[Motorola Droid 3] majatt:
I should have been more clear, its in Settings>Wireless & Networks> VPN Settings and try to setup a connection there.

---------- Post added at 01:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:56 PM ----------

It outputs the info as expected, the gpu overclock even works.

Guys what you think about lock screen fromm XT861 5.8.25 Stock ROM it look more better.
[Motorola Droid 3] cobravnm13:
Never seen it.

Where would I look to find the power menu .apk and the battery icons folder. I want to port/move those over to SD5.0.
[Motorola Droid 3] Roland_73:
Hey,

thanks for this wonderful ROM....I love it...

but i have a small issue....i don't like the notification toggles u used

if u can tell me how to remove then...i would really be grateful

Roland
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Battery icons are in either systemUI.apk or framework-res.apk, I can't recall which. I imagine power menu is part of framework as well, it's probably achieved via editing .jar files, try google
[Motorola Droid 3] thingonaspring:
Battery icons are in framework-res.apk. Power menu (reboot/screenshot) exists in /system/framework/framework-res (two icons) and /system/framework/android.policy.jar (code to perform screenshot+reboot). You'll also need /system/app/CMScreenshot.apk and /system/bin/screenshot.

@Roland_73

To remove/replace power notification icons, you'd need to replace /system/app/SystemUI.apk with one that has your prefered layout for the notification area. You'll get a force-close message and need to reboot after replacing it.
[Motorola Droid 3] cobravnm13:
Schweet. Thanks. I really like the theming on your ROM so far. Keep up the great work!
[Motorola Droid 3] AkiraQc:
Will this rom work on the Xt860 ( canada droid3 )

Yes and very well too! Use the version that Endoroid put together for the xt860, back here.

Anyone tried any JB rom on the xt860 ?
[Motorola Droid 3] jakereeves31:
So, I put this ROM on my sister's phone and everything was working, but now after a reboot she can use the camera once and then every time after that it doesn't connect. It force closes Instagram every time she just clicks on the little camera button. So she can't even upload a pic. Anyone, know what's up?

THE BEAST
[Motorola Droid 3] cobravnm13:
Try redownloading and then reflashing.
[Motorola Droid 3] apronouva:
THIS! is so far the best Custom ROM I've ever been to. Installed v1.7 yesterday via Safestrap 3 and experiencing the smoothness. Not much to complain, however I would like to ask some newbie questions regarding overclock :

I tried to copy the overclock template to /data, uncomment all those lines on the second post (only whats mentioned on that post) of this thread and hook up ./02overclock from terminal emulator but I got error something like "line 6 'cpu' command not found " or something like that. I tried then to comment "cpu overclock" back.

Both (with "cpu overclock" commented and not) resulting in sudden reboot. Did I miss something here ??

Other than that, this rom is wonderful. I use xt862 with GSM only, I don't need to set anything elses other than my own APN and its just works. Keep up the good works.

Thank you in advance
[Motorola Droid 3] rblanca:
Hi, do you find what line must be added? Because I have the same problem that you...Thanks!
[Motorola Droid 3] thingonaspring:
That's an unintended line showing up in the 2nd post, I've edited it as shown below :-

First, uncomment these lines

#echo performance > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

#echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

#insmod /system/lib/modules/symsearch.ko

#insmod /system/lib/modules/overclock.ko

#echo hotplug > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

Do plet me know how you get on with overclocking - it's a tricky thing to get right and I have few reports so far of people succeeding.
[Motorola Droid 3] apronouva:
Thank you for the fast response. Okay, pardon my stupidity, the steps and outcomes are below :

1. Using Root Explorer, I copy 02overclock from /etc/init.d/ to /data/

2. Editing /data/02.overclock (the rest are commented so I don't put it in):

echo performance > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

insmod /system/lib/modules/symsearch.ko

insmod /system/lib/modules/overclock.ko

echo 3 1200000000 50 >/proc/overclock/mpu_opps

echo 2 800000000 40 >/proc/overclock/mpu_opps

echo 1 400000000 32 >/proc/overclock/mpu_opps

echo 0 200000000 26 >/proc/overclock/mpu_opps

echo hotplug > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

3. Run terminal emulator, su mode, go to /data/, execute ./02overclock

4. Sudden Reboot

Any good application suggestion to read system log ?

Anyway, thank you in advance for any suggestion
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Try reducing the overclock. Some devices can't handle it
[Motorola Droid 3] apronouva:
Tried 1100000000 50 for the highest clock but still rebooted. Does this means no go for the overclock?

Thx in advance
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
Are you still on the 890 kernel or did you upgrade to the 906? You can try flashing the 890 Opptimizer package here (look for solana and flash in SafeStrap): http://code.google.com/p/opptimizer/downloads/list

I had the same problem as well.
[Motorola Droid 3] apronouva:
It is said for CM, is it okay to flash it via safestrap 3? I'm sorry but I never do flash updates using safestrap before so I gotta be cautious.

Edit: anyway, its 906 kernel. Can it still be done?

Thx in advance
[Motorola Droid 3] AkiraQc:
Anyway to have the On-Screen Keyboard, I love the built-in Physical one, But sometime i only have 1 hand and wanna use the on-screen:p
[Motorola Droid 3] apronouva:
Try Hacker Keyboard, free from Google Play Market. Well, you could always try another 3rd party keyboard, though.
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
It is safe. Are you sure you upgraded to 906? Because it wouldn't be rebooting. Keep in mind unless you use Kexec the kernel will be the version stock ROM you have initially flashed.
[Motorola Droid 3] apronouva:
Please reconfirm.

Screenshot above
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
Hmm. OK well I don't know whats up unless it says 906 for the ROM base. Idk. It is acting like it is for the wrong kernel.
[Motorola Droid 3] apronouva:
I see, I'll try flashing up after I got home. Need to back some data up first. I'll report how its going afterwards.

Thank you in advance.
[Motorola Droid 3] thingonaspring:
@aprnova

As stated in the second post, those values are valid only for my specific CPU.

The silicon in your phone will almost certainly not work with them.

Instead start with the default settings (also present in the 02overclock script as a set of comments) and try adding clockspeed or removing voltage in steps to see what is/isn't stable on your CPU.

See defaults below :-

# Default clock/vmm values for reference

#echo 3 1000000000 61 >/proc/overclock/mpu_opps

#echo 2 800000000 55 >/proc/overclock/mpu_opps

#echo 1 600000000 43 >/proc/overclock/mpu_opps

#echo 0 300000000 26 >/proc/overclock/mpu_opps
