[Q] Cyanogen on Droid 3?

I apologize in advance for asking a question that has no doubt been asked on here before and posted but I cant find my answer. I just recently came to Motorolla from HTC because I needed to switch to Verizon for work and the D3 was perfect. After looking around on here and on the CM site Im still very confused...Is there a CM download (preferably CM7.1) for the D3 or are people just trying to make something work on it. Im not even rooted yet because if I cant get CM Im not sure I even want to. If anyone can answer this for me and direct me to a download it would be greatly appreciated! Thank you all and I apologize again for asking a dumb question.

Yes Hashcode has a cm7 download in the Droid 3 developers forum....it's still got a few minor bugs but overall it's awesome I've been running it for quite sometime now...I don't have a link but look in the dev forum...good luck.

There's a somewhat 7.1 port posted, but hashcode is mostly focused on bringing the 9 up to being usable.

So this is good enough for a daily user? I need my phone for work so I cant use anything too experimental.

It, most certainly, is good enough to be used as a daily driver. I have been using it since he was able to work out the audio bugs. Around 11/15. It does take some setting up, but well worth it. Just read the thread and Hash's blogspot, you should find everything you need there. Good Luck!

i would like it if the droid 3 gets a officiel cyanogen mod.

If we got everything working the d3 could get official cm7, I think by the time Hashcode is done we'll have an official cm9, think it depends on the code he uses and the cm guys

the only that doesnt work is the camera i use it as a daily rom its great

I've read the external SD also doesn't work. Is that true?

That's fine with me, the camera isn't that great anyway but it would be nice to have. How about wifi and GPS? I had CM7 on my G2 and there were a lot of issues with that stuff. Bith are a big deal for me. What's the best bet as far as getting root? Is Psouda's one touch pretty fool proof? I would hate to brick my new baby!

Even if so, that's not really that big of a deal. The phones got 16 gb internal anyway, what more do you need? Lol

Both SD cards are working in both CM7 and CM9. It's their naming convention that throws people off:
/emmc is the internal emmc storage area (called "/sdcard" in the stock ROM)
/sdcard is the actual sdcard (it's called "/sdcard-ext" in the stock ROM)

And actually the camera will work. The hardware camera does not, but there are a couple software cameras from the market that will. I use camera zoom fx. With very little problems. If you're like me and the camera isn't that big of a deal, these soft cams will work good enough.

What do you mean the hardware camera doesn't work and software camera does?
For any camera soft to work the hardware has to be working...
Do you mean, you can't take pictures with the inbuilt camera app, and can take pics with camera zoom fx?
If so, then the camera works, just the default app does not...
Is this what you mean? If so, then great... If not, what're you sayin'?

Thanks for this information, very important.
What are CM9's shortcomings in usage on the Droid 3 in your opinion, based on experience? Drawbacks, when compared to the default ROM, any?

I think he means stock camera isn't working
xt860, android 2.3.5, Eclipse 1.1.1

so which camera to install.. all thirth party stuff i tried really suck.. some dont work at all some others have terrible quality some others only show half of the screen....

I like ProCapture. You can either buy it from the market or do some Google searching to "try it before you buy". (But I really suggest buying it if you like it.)

Bugs
it is very buggy, u can use face detection lockscreen, all gba dosent work, some apps just close simultanly (they are still open in background), video recording only 720p, is is still better than stock rom, the good part: u can use google chrome, and connect a wii remote controller

Sorry i'm not the coder of this ROM but i think with the next updates it will became stable.There are a lot of bug but the most important functionality work

will it will be easy to come back to CM7 as clean everything and flash the CM from CWM?

Is there a recent apps button?
My favourite feature on my Transformer Prime

Arcee hasn't guaranteed continued support for this build. We just have to hope for it.
Most general functions work anyway and battery life is pretty good. Been using it all day and the phone is faster than I've ever seen it.
Really hope he carries on this project until we have a fully working, stable build.
Edit: Hold home button for recent apps list.....yeh, it's there.... ;-)

There's no video recording at all. That's because there's no media encoding/decoding available yet. It will crash the camera as soon you start recording.

Make a nandroid backup in CWM of your current CM7 ROM. You can go back and forth between them. This is my second time on CM9. I'm trying something. Maybe I'll go back later to CM7 again.

Only issue for now is the battery consumption, which is quite high. I can't last 8 hours on it. Maybe it will improve over some charging cycles, but it's too cool to give up for now. Otherwise, everything seems to work quite ok, even a2dp works. Maybe FM-radio doesn't work, but I don't really care anyway

Damn awesome! Also I just cannot understand what is happening with my battery: yesterday after installing the rom i charged it full and then unplugged.
I still have 81% remaining battery after 19 hours of use between wifi, camera, music and like 30 minutes of calls. If isn't just a visual bug it is awesome!

What?? thats amzing really! The biggest issue for me (and others i suppose) is the huge battery drain. Can u take a look in the battery stats and tell what % u get for display? It tops my list with a rather high 85%

Indeed. I took it off the charger this morning at 07:30, and at 15:00 it was dead

I don't have any problems with battery drain. Haven't tried with a fully charged battery, but here after almost 9 hours I still on 71%, and the screen have only used 11%

I think that the Sharp rom has hdmi and camera and Radio working, it is 2.3.5. But you will have to revert to stock to uninstall. However it is not AOSP. It is a stock rom.

The Sharp ROM made endless bootloop, so im back on Aplha4.

Either you had bad upgrade or you hardware is slightly different than my u9000-81 Sorry.

I grabbed my Huawei U9000 and flashed to Taiwanese Sharp ROM.
Seems to be running smoothly except the speakerphone is strangely soft and blur in a phone call. It works loud and clear in YouTube/video playback.
Also, I find the touch screen a bit funny as it may not response to anything at random... then I switch off the screen and turn back again, everything's back to normal.
Could this be a hardware issue or a software/driver one?
Second bug is that the camera does not save saturation/sharpness/contrast settings.
Also, apart from the Taiwanese Sharp ROM, any modded ROM can make use of HDMI connection?
I've made this on YouTube, hope you guys enjoy it.

I had the same experience thats why i used Volume+ to increase dB
Dont set to full extend +12dB is like the limit. Going over would make no changes or may also result to distorted audio.

since we're on the same topic of 2.3 ROMs with camera and HDMI.. id like to ask, which rom has HDMI and can be overclocked?
As far as I have found so far, overclocking is kernel dependant. And so is HDMI.. that means I can't have a kernel that allows overclocking and has HDMI function right?

I'm kind of a "ROM-a-holic". I like to try new ROMs all the time. I really like SlimKat (by "jfbs"), but I've noticed that the volumes seem to be very low...even when I have them turned all the way up I have a hard time hearing the caller. Am I just imagining this or have others noticed this? I've been using it for several weeks and really like it, but will probably go back to CM11 for awhile (until SlimKat gets another update) and see if I notice differences in the volumes. If anyone else notices this issue maybe they could pass it along to jfbs. I love all the great work everyone is doing with the ROMs for this relic of a phone!!

I don't have slimkat, but I used slimbean for a long time. I had a similar volume issue there. What worked with slimbean was actually to click volume _down_ one click and then turn it up. Maybe that workaround will fix your problem. Good luck.

Another Comparison - RROS vs AOSPA

So you saw the description - which one is more stable / faster f. e. in app switching + gaming etc.? Battery and bugs are same I guess. Also I'm talking about newest builds .
EDIT: I using RROS 20172505 and I fine it very very smooth and fast! ))

Have you tried the latest update (August)? Stuff got fixed!

for me RR works really good. flashed latest update by emui 4.1.... no problem. I'll test when I'll travel tomorrow

yoo, does bluetooth work on RROS? cuz on aokp it turns on, finds devices, but cant connect, also video recording doesnt work as YouTube 720p 60fps

Yo, no, I haven't. I'm still lazy to roll back to stock EMUI then updating ?. I just wanna know, which one of them is better. I don't have priorities, just smoothness is number one for me. So I struggle to choose :/
