[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Hey guys, I asked this question in Jake's Q&A and got some good answers, but a little weak on the details, asking them for a few more details now.

I am still on 03/30 because it runs good and never has any problems. I just learned from official thread to turn on nav bar w/gravity box and turn on the keyboard cursor arrows,. Sweet! But, I don't want my phone to "get old" nor can I experiment with different roms to try and find a good one. Do you guys know of some "good builds" recently that run good? Late April that you have run for at least a couple of days with no issues?

Thanks guys. News like this we all really need and appreciate bad.

* The details I am requesting are:

Did you wipe the slot totally off and installed it clean from scratch with gapps, or just flash over what you had? Did you just update from Settings/About Phone/Cyanogen Updates? How much run time do you have on it (days) and did you have *any* problems at all? ...any? ...at all?

Because one person is on a snapshot build, his answer and everyone else using a good nightly is *very* important here. Details! Not crazy long details, just tell what I asked or anything significant. I speak for myself here but I believe many of the people here wants to install a good rom and not experiment with bad builds if it can be avoided and have the phone they depend on go out for important calls at bad times. I can't have the phone locking up or going black, losing signal, etc., when doctors are calling, jobs that I need for the money, etc. I need a working phone and try like heck to avoid builds that are not reported to be known as "good". Thanks for your time and cooperation! :)

P.S. I realize that I am using a "Nightly" build and if I want stable, go back to 10.x or something. I get it. But I have been blessed here with mostly good builds and good results, all because we all contribute, report, and inform each other of what we are experiencing. What can I say? All you guys are

*Terrific*!

:laugh:

UPDATE:

CrackerJack just came through with the details, he flashed M5 OTA and has nothing but praise for it. That is the kind of info I was asking for and for you guys that want a new, solid rom, this sounds very promising. Be sure to make a good SS backup before trying a new rom if you have a really good one now. I am going for it now. Wish me luck and good luck to you all! :fingers-crossed:

He is amazing! Michael and I have been talking, the poor guy is spread incredibly thin. The two group leaders left and they pretty much "threw the entire Droid phone" group on his shoulders. So he has to work on everything and nothing at the same time. Last thing he mentioned was a bug in the Motorola binary files with NO SOURCE FILES AVAILABLE! So, he is essentially working blind because Motorola has made a proprietary a portion of the Android code and only release the binary file. He would have to essentially "reverse engineer" the entire Audio Hardware Abstraction Layer. I just had a problem of screen going black every time I took a call, then could not see the screen to hang up, use Bluetooth, or speaker. The problem got into my build, I think it was 03/27, 03/30 works great. Never an issue. He requested certain system information, but since I had to flash over it, the information he needed was now overwritten.

Wow, pressure like that would break anybody! But he trucks on, man. The only thing he does not do is java. Looking at tomorrow's changelog and it appears that there are a few camera updates and he is squashing bugs in the code. I don't understand all of it, but there is a note about the USB host issue. That bug has been a killer for months! But it is all but gone now, thanks to Stargo. Vanwho recognized that bug in my phone when I did not even understand it because of the black screens. Michael confirmed it, Vanwho got it right!

It does look good, 2¢. I share your appreciation for Stargo. He is a very brilliant dude, major Computer Science right now. He is the development group leader now for our phones and he does not even have the official title from XDA yet. "Senior Member", can you believe it? :)
