I just saw this! Follow @P3Droid on twitter for any updates! My guess by Friday Clockwork will be up!
Good afternoon everyone. According to a reliable source we have just been informed that the Motorola Droid 3 now has a fully functioning recovery. This is great news for those that want to have the flexibility that CWR brings to the Android line of devices. Currently we don't have the specifics regarding the method of installation but according to P3 more information will follow soon..
I know there are a lot of excited D3 owners and Devs out there hearing this. I also hope this means we'll see the X2 and the Bionic to Follow. Let the Backups and Flashing begin.

For real? That'd be epic and amazing!
Wow that's humongous!
does that mean people who update the leaked OTA on to their phone could potentially flash back to original stock?
Yummy.

Not really caring about roms. My main concern, right now, is if someone backs a backup of the bone stock pre OTA phone, with clockwork recovery, will i be able to install it on to my phone?
I think the best part of this so far is that nandroid is working (ie: backups can be made & flashed w/o the hassles of using RSDLite and waiting for SBFs). Great news! One step closer to Cyanogen.

I believe its possible, but not practicle or easy. You have to change a bunch of stuff to the backup and then I'm pretty sure you have issues with the esn and stuff, but I could be wrong. I remember it being discussed once, but that was many months ago.

There are still ways to get CM7 running on the Blur kernel. And overclock it with modular overclocking.
I hope to see this phone at 1.5 ghz someday. But what I really want is a stock themed debloated rom. Recovery means we're about have roms, so I can't wait!

Basically what it means is that you can install any rom made for the droid 3. Different "cooks/chefs" (people who cook or make roms) will make roms ranging from stock 2.3.4 (sans blur) to modified "improved" 2.3.4 stock droid rom to new versions that have leaked like the upcoming Ice-cream os and maybe even Jelly Bean.
Truly unicorns here. I remember when I had the D1 the battery life was barely better than what we have now. Liquid cooked up a rom that gave me a 2 day battery life with heavy use.
Not to mention hotstpotting and other cool things. I doubt getting past or fooling the Efuse is too difficult after the unlocked bootloader.
Look at how far development has come on the Milestone despite its locked bootloader; granted, it's been almost 2 years since that phone came out but it certainly is possible to squeeze way more performance out of these bad boys than is possible with their stock representation!
Can't wait to see what happens in the next few months!

I've rooted and flashed a few Captivates over the past several months. I am aware there are newer ways of flashing back to stock. I want to flash one back to stock and then upgrade to Froyo 2.2, in preparation of selling it.
So what's the best, easiest way of doing this now?
Thanks, Tomween1
i really dont think this deserves being answered.
Depends on the build number

Now that we have root...how long till we can get a new rom on there?
Never happy...
We need clockworkmod recovery first to even flash a rom. Probably looking at another week or two for the first rom.

As soon as we get a custom recovery, I'm going to try at ROM developing. I wanted to on my Eris for a while, but I never got around to it (I actually did develop one, but never released it and it wasn't incredibly good, so I stopped using it myself after about a day >_>), and this phone seems like a good one to start on.

It's not necesary. You can make and install ROMs without CWM, you just cant make it idiot proof like CWM .zips are
I want Webtop to run on the device.
I'm new to this and have it rooted, currently i have broken out with blitzkrieg, wondering where i could find any different ROMs
thank you
Depends on what software you have but BrokenOut is pretty much it unfortunately.

Not the other way around, bro.
****btw CM9 is STILL in development for our LG Revolution.
Sorry if I seem skeptical. Its just that there was talk about cyanogen last year and nothing much ever came of it, nor has much ever came of the other rumored Roms that were talked about. I hope I'm proved wrong because no Android should have only one developer.

Well.... there is Broken Out 3.0 which opened the door for roming on this device....
Eclipse Rom.... which was second
Black Plague 1.0 which is IMO the best of the options.... including the kernel that comes as a separate flashable zip .... it has the best on battery life as well as lagfree performance and undervolting.... also has a higher charge rate included.... and zram swap enabled....
There is also Holo 3.2.6 which is essentially a themed rom.....
Ninjroid is an option as well....
Oh and Plagued Optimus V1....
You can find all these here..... it just takes a bit of searching and you will have everything you need at your finger tips....
Oh and kernel wise .... there is a flashable blitzkrieg ..... plague kernel.... and popcorn kernel....
this is incomplete but it does list the best of the best

The leak ends in bricks and wiped IMEI blocks... No ics roms because the leak was too buggy .... It's fixable after wiping the IMEI but you get no 4g and almost no functionality

I'm having zero luck getting any of the CM 10.x ROMs to load on my Spectrum. Someone over at CM said to check for updated bootloaders and radios. Does anybody know what the latest updates are?
I'm running with CWM 6.x for recovery.
Thanks in advance for any pointers!!
ROM Porting
Why can't anyone work on porting these ROM's to the vs930
why post about the vs920 here?
i am curious as to why this phone does not have its own thread. it needs to be available in the device selection list and i intend to make it happen. i cant find it except by using the general search tool. i cant find old roms for the phone here (gingerbread rom files, mirrors or anything helpful to restore to stock) so that we can do something useful for it.
Been out of the loop for a while . What is the latest and greatest from for Bionic . I am looking for a clean ics with no bloatware.

I had a hard time dealing with the UI elements of Icarus. I had a better time with Eclipse 1.2. It wasn't perfect but it got a lot of things done.
What are you looking for other than "a clean ICS"? What "wasn't perfect about eclipse? Need more specifics about what your looking for and or not happy with...
I to have been off the ROM grid due to some issues with my device not connecting to adb over a few months but I just fixed it somehow, rooted, and I've been looking, for your needs try eclipse. That fitted the bill for GB so I'm sure is just as well on ICS

You can't flash ROMS on the ATT Note 3 yet. There is safe strap that is still in Alpha testing and is not yet 100% working. It however is not a true root and eats up a large amount of internal memory where the image file of the ROM is stored. There is a thread on Safestrap and how it works. Use it at your own risk. Outside of that it is IMPOSSIBLE to flash an ATT Note 3 right now..

The issue is that even with safe strap you can't flash any ROM. The ROM first has to be tailored to work with and around safe strap since it is not truly a ROM but a bootloader bypass and works a little differently. So until developers either jump on board and tweak ROMS to work with safestrap or they wait till the bootloader is unlocked, there are no ROMS right now to flash..

Incorrect. There are 3 roms that I have flashed myself. One based on mj5 and 2 based off xnote7. All 3 flashed to the stock slot with safestrap. Check the development thread and you will see.

I said you could not flash them reliably and have them 100% functional. There is still testing being conducted on all the ROMS claimed to work and no one has confirmed 100% functionality with all apps and hardware. So they are still not certified reliable like a real flash would be..
If you have tested the three you have used 100% on both hardware and apps then you need to get in there and say so because they are looking for 100% proof of function confirmation..
Not going to argue semantics with you.
I will say that I have flashed to rom slots 1 thru 4 and the stock slot and restored backups to them all with no issues. And am currently running the ported xnote7 with no issues at all. So yes, roms can be installed to AT&T Note3 phones.

Have you been actively participating in the development of this phone? I've been doing this for years and I'll be honest. 99% of custom rooms do not run 100% perfect or functional. That being said, instead of telling everyone we can't flash ROMS. Why not tell them what we do have and let him decide if it is what He is looking for.

HAHA nice!!! yeah i put the xnote rom on last night so far no issues at all runs smooth and i love it!! just wish everything didnt take up a bunch of the internal memory but hey its a sweet rom so whatever
I am just going by all the "this does not work, or this fails, or my apps no longer load" and the list goes one of post in the SS thread right now.. For some it maybe stable but it seems the majority is having more problems then they had with stock.
Can someone orovide the link to xnote7 that can be fkashed to att note 3 using safe strap please?
