Does anyone know where i can get a working swype apk for my new droid? Ive had it on every phone for almost a year but havent been able to find one for the droid that works.
Shot from my level 60 crossbow of awesomness!

wondering if anyone has heard anything on anytype of rooting for the telus motorola milestone. its hard to search for due to the euro milestone out there that always pops up, apparently the bootloader is encrypted not allowing anything not signed by them digitally
ive gotten 2.1 gallery on the phone but not MT so i use the stock 2.0.1 media gallery, and i have launcher2 running perfectly. wanting to get into root to overclock and get rid of the white top bar!
on that note, its an amazing phone if anyone is looking at getting it or already have it, i used 2.1 on my dream and its nice to be on this fast phone with fully working eclair! i reverted back to 1.6 cm 4.2.14.1 ? newest cm + blue haze addon, i can still have fun with my dream but i want to have the same fun on my milestone!
If a dev has the phone then it will most likely get root but I wasn't even aware you guys were getting the GSM Milestone. Don't worry you should visit Modaco's site they have like every android phone there.

nothing there about telus motorola milestone's
motorola needs to release the damn digital signing codes so dev's can do their magic with the phone!
Is there any possible way to port that BlurHome.apk in the Droid X dump to the Motorola Droid, I couldn't find it in the forums.

There is a way by most likely porting the whole build over. But I'm waiting for the droid2 to come out which is supposed to have ninjablur running on froyo. It should be a very easy port since it's basically an upgraded droid from what I've heard.
Ok, great. thanks for the reply.

so, now that the droid 2 is out, r u working on a rom?
if I may interject, that may be hard due to the locked bootloader, but stranger things have happened, though I do wonder what you find desirable in blur. Not meant to be rude, it's just that launcher pro payed has awsome homescreen widgets for social networks, and to my knowlede one of the main reasons people root is to rid their phones of forced upon software like blur. Though if it's really uninvasive, I guess I could see how that could be usefull. (oh, btw hardware changes all the time, just because its the droid 2, don't automatically think its an easy port to throw onto the D1) Did you know the Htc Incredible was originally supposed to have 8 gigs of rom, and, I believe like 2 gigs of ram, too. Though you see how that played out, slap the droid label on anything and you can sell about half the actual device to people at the same price, but I digress. Basically, if you really, really want this ported, make some developer friends online, ask nicely on the forums, or, you know, become a rom chef.
Okay, been searching for the past 4 hours though countless threads....I know I've seen a way to change the background and the Verizon logo on the lockscreen but dont remember where I saw it. Any help would be appreciated.
Eris 2.2, CELB 1.9

Here you go, Android 2.4 Honeycomb's music player apk. Yes, Android 2.4. It seems to go along nicely with gallery 3d.

I tried pushing this to my phone a few days ago and couldn't get it running on my eris. It wouldn't let me do a traditional install either. Do you have it running? If so, what ROM are you running?

I have not even looked at it yet but for all I know, it may be HDPI only. That would be dumb of Google. I don't think many MDPI devices (if any) will get the official upgrade to 2.4 or 3.0, but rooters are like half or more of the user base right? I think google should be on the rooters side when it comes to this kind of thing. The G1 has gingerbread right? And that was not even supposed to get 2.0.

It probably has more to do with how much RAM this thing uses. I was reading reports of the guys in the original thread and they were saying it was sucking down 24-28mb of RAM, the Eris couldn't handle that drain, hell it pretty much takes being OC'd to handle the 3D gallery on these phones.
Hello. I will be receiving a Droid 3 as a warranty replacement tomorrow. It comes with ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich) pre-installed. I have been searching, and cannot find a way to root the Droid 3.
I am hoping I missed it. If someone can point me to the tutorial for rooting the Droid 3 with ICS, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.

Where did you hear it will come with ICS...? Because it won't.
I was told this by the Verizon rep. It is a warranty replacement. he specifically said it has ICS on it. No, I am not mistaken. Maybe he was?
Even if it doesn't, I have been unable to find a tutorial for rooting the Droid 3.
I can assure you that it will not be arriving with ICS, I'm sure he must have been mistaken. It will most likely be running Gingerbread 2.3.4 with the 5.6.890 system software.
Anywho... here is the tutorial you are looking for http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1240130
If you do get one with ics on it then I will be calling Verizon and having them replace my phone for one like that

If you get a phone w/ics system dump before anything else please, if you need a hand lots of people here will help (or on irc) but since moto still has the d3 listed as "evaluating" for ics and haven't even started working on a build I would say the rep is more than likely mistaken. Hopefully not but if moto had an ics build for the d3 I imagine we would have heard about a soak or something. As for your question I would probably try the root for d4 and if that didn't work check out what they're using on the nexus etc
If you do get ICS please tweet Hash. We really could benefit from it.

We would still have a locked bootloader and the same kernel issues though. I'd put money on the rep being wrong, but I'd like to be proven wrong.
so what version of android did you end up getting on the d3?

You folks were right. He was wrong. It has 2.3.4.
It runs pretty fast, compares well to the DX2. I wanted CM ROM on it, but none are completely working. Camera has issues GSM FCs and so forth. I just wish my DX2 would work. Haven't used a physical keyboard in a while either.
What do you folks think of your Droid 3s?

I bought my D3 FOR the keyboard. I came from an enV touch and the thought of a touchscreen keyboard that wasn't 100% perfect made me shiver. Looking back, I would definitely have gone with a SGS II. I didn't know anything about the D3's bootloader being locked and the full touch screen is definitely worth the unlocked bootloader. That being said, I still love the keyboard. It's better than any I have ever used.
I don't hate my Droid 3. It runs my ICS roms rather smoothly and the only thing that I wished worked is Google Chrome. I use the camera but I found that I have not wanted to use the video recorder since switching; even if it DID work.
If you want a CM ROM that is pretty stable, I'd recommend 7.2 found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1308924
It's a bit more stable than CM9, though it still has some bugs. Stable enough for a daily driver in my opinion.
My d3 is alright but if I was sent one now with any option of sending back either for a different phone or terminate a contract(within 30 days or whatever and setup a new one) I would jump @ the chance, just because its a little old, 1g ram would be nice but imo it's like dual core phones, 1 core is wasted 90% of the time, upgradable to ics would be very nice too, custom kernel would be nicest though(htc,lg etc etc). I guess what I'm saying is its decent but I wouldn't buy one now.

I'd say droid 3 is all about the keyboard. Without the keyboard, there would be many better phones. Phones with 1GB ram, unlocked bootloader and a better screen.
However, I'd rather have a keyboard than have those ^ things without a keyboard .
It seems to run faster, and more smooth than my Droid X2. It's ugly though, and it will take some getting used to a physical keyboard again. I have it rooted, radiocom hacked. I want to tweak the camera, but the thread is confusing me a bit as to which zip to use, or which edits to make to build.pro and the XML file. I would prefer to edit rather than install a zip as I don't really want a bootstrap on the phone.
App Brain is making me frustrated though, since Fast Web Installer will not log in.
So far, I am loving this.
Another heartbreak. If D3 doesn't gets ICS by July, I'll let it go.
