Is there anyway to take an app(Footprints) from a droid incredible or dinc 2 and run them on a Droid Bionic? I have played with rooting and ROMS, but with school and everything else going on, I just haven't had time to research it. If not, can anyone suggest a similar app for the Bionic. Thanks in advance.

don't think that is possible the htc apps are made to run only on htc phones like footprints and teeter i am sure it could be tampered with to work but i am sure it is a lot more work than it is is work and i am not sure about related apps to that google it?? there for a reason
I just did a google search for footprints.apk and found a site where you may be able to download it.
Just remeber that you do this at your own risk. I also don't condone piracy so make sure this isn't a paid app.
I had found the apk download, but was nervous about issues caused by it being an HTC app. Thanks for the advice. Was hoping someone else may have already done this. Guess I'll break down and do the research. Thanks again

No offense to anyone here, but I cant even fiddle with his phone for more than 30 seconds before I get frustrated by it's sluggishness and just hand it back to him. It's phones like that that prevented me from buying an Android phone for so long, but now I have the Evo and love it.
So, what can I do to help him out here? It's fully updated. Mostly I'd want to look into some sort of overclock and removing the sprint bloatware. Nothing fancy, just something to make it more functional.
First and foremost you need to root the phone using universal androot or z4 one click root.
Get root explorer to remove the bloatware. Once it is installed open up root explorer navigate to data/FLEX and remove bloatware.
Then you can start speeding up the phone using sysctl config app in the market. We have a thread with recommended settings floating around here somewhere. VM Heap tool and BladeBuddy to turn off stagefright, you can also use apps like SD speed increase to gain a lil speed from your sd card. After doing all of that and dialing the settings in the phone should run like a dream.
Just don't brick it. We will not take liability in the case that the phone no longer functions properly or if the battery blows up or any thing that happens from modifying the phone.
Now before you go buck wild with your dad's phone please read more about rooting and sysctl but first question is, cricket or sprint?

I never had issues with the Zio mine was great on speed an UI, rootedfrom day one. I got a semi bricked one for free im trying to flash it back as it out performs the Optius...though nothing seems to work. Ive tried booting it at least 4-5 ways. Ive used original rom, custom rom, ive tried pushing the images for boot through usb as well. Anyone got any ideas? Id love make some some custom mods for it.

Please tell me you arent trying to push the roms / themes from here on XDA. They are cricket images and wont work on sprint.
Aside from that, you may need to get someone with a working sprint zio and try to perform a nand backup from a fresh hard reset that you can hopefully restore. I dont even know if CWM recovery will work for sprint but read the thread here and give it a shot to see if it boots.
My Zio is a cricket its NOT a Sprint...

But I promise you if it's cricket, flash the openzio rom once spz includes the kernel.
Sent from my Zio using XDA Premium App
OK, so the prob with this Zio is the last owner attempted to do the 2.2 over the air update and it failed, causing it to not boot right, then a Cricket Rep. Reloaded the OS and now it won't go passed the green droid at original start screen. Sure hope that kernel arrives soon. Thanks for all the help I appreciate it!

Have you tried erasing everything in fastboot and flashing imgs in fastboot?
Sent from my Zio using XDA Premium App
Everything is off it, I assume since the OS was reloaded it has no root, this is my first time with a difficult phone too.I have ODIN if someone would be willing to walk me through that process I'd be VERY MUCH appreciative, it's possible I've over complicated this in my head, if it has no root am I skrewed? PC won't recognize it in usb, and I'm new to adb so getting files to it is tricky for a rookie like me ={
Sent from my LG-LW690 using XDA Premium App
Scrapped that zio...even ODIN didn't help...trading that zio and this LG for an out the box brand new Droid Incredible...coming completely set up rooted,backed up,and with a tested custom ROM optimized for speed and performance! Thanks to all the awesome ppl who helped me try and get that Zio going ^_^
Sent from my LG-LW690 using XDA Premium App
Good luck with the new phone... sorry that the Zio is too complicated to use, unfortunately we only have a few devs around here... the incredible has plenty of support and everything will be easy. If you have trouble with that phone it will be user error.

Read the post at the url below. It describes how to get updates from Motorola cloud servers. It might be useful in getting unlocks for other phones. Please spread the word to anyone interested in an unlock for Motorola Android phones with Blur.

Time is what it takes, and it has to be made worthwhile for devs to spend their time on it. ICS is coming and lets face it many will be looking to that as the next great frontier.
I know from various forums that with the confirmed members who will put up enough coin a ambitious dev would get enough to easily pay for a D3.
Can the Droid 3 be used on T-Mobile if unlocked or rooted? I ask because I noticed a SIM card slot. Thanks..
So I called the number off this link below and they claim they can unlock the Droid 3 for AT&T and it would work on 3g. Also, they can do the same for T-Mobile but it would only work on Edge. Can anyone confirm this? Has anyone dealt with this site before? Thanks.

so i dont know but ive been derpin around and noticed a couple things....first off apparently there is a sdk that has been updated for the droid 3 over at MOTODEV site....i was looking through some settings and enabled data encryption which required a boot into some sort of recovery where the internal disk obviously allowed -rw access inwhich i was wondering if it would be possible to dump this process through ADB (maybe find handshake)....and a simple ls command thru term reveals bloatware galore
Have we looked at te exploit that the nexus users are using? They can root 2.3.3, 2.3.4, and now 2.3.5. Seems we should use their exploit if possible

Unlocked bootloader makes rooting easier. What works for them (unlocked) will not work for the Droid 3 (locked bootloader).

They say it's the XT860 which is technically not the droid 3 but the non CDMA version of it being deployed by Bell Canada (which should be easy enough to unlock for AT&T and T-Mobile)

Unless it's like the D2G, in which case it's locked from AT&T-Mobile.
Protip: call VZW Global Services and tell them you're going to India (no global plans over there - you have to either not use your phone or rack up a giant bill) and ask for the SIM unlock code. Account has to be in good standing and the device has to be on your line.
If you have 6 months of good standing you can just ask for an unlock with no reason given.

i switched to custom rom and noticed the nfl apk isnt there anyone know where to get it?
You should be able to get it off the market
looking at this question it seems dumb, but I'm glad it's on here.
I'm new to verizon and was wondering the same thing after I flashed eclipse. I remember looking for this on my evo shift and realizing it's verizon only.

It is Verizon only. Grab a sprint phone and search for it in the market. Its not there. Im guessing the market is carrier specific.

Um ok, but that doesnt help. Not trying to be rude but you could have at least pointed me in the right direction to learn "how to ask". As for those who ran across this with the same issue while i still havnt found a fix there is an app called pinger unfortunately you have to use a separate number but it does allow you to text normally so long as you have internet via phone network or wifi

On a side note if this forum is going to act like an apple forum where its exclusive and you cant get help unless you do things just right its going to turn a lot of people away. There's a reason we all chose android, because we didn't want to be part of a community that thinks its better just because it doed things a certain way. We like the freedom of being unique not part of the iclone group. I asked for help in the best way i knew how even waiting every 24 hours to post again even though the wait was killing me. Then the response i received rang in deafening tones just how "cool" you have to be to receive any help. You know "not trying to be rude"

Hey guyssssssss I live in Puerto Rico and my 4.3 update just got to me SEP/30
I used the standard process for unloocking bootloader /TMWP Recovery/ SuperSU/ and installed costom ROM. And everything is still working. If anyone else got the update please tell me.
Update:
A bit about my phone. I bought it from a best buy clerk that won it in a pre release of the HTC one ( promotional propaganda to push the phone as they came into market. CWM touch recovery don't work on my phone always crashes.
Here here not smoking nothing. 5 hours of semi bricked device and I am back. No joke I can't get back to stock. RUU's dont work so I cant replicate what I did in a video. The update came to my phone Sep30. Tried to update but since I had a costume recovery kept falling to update ( even though the phone was forcing me to update everytime) decided to use the original RUU and update all the way throu. At 4 updates later I finally had it. All the bloatware from HTC wanted to update and so did sprint. What I first ran to check was the VVM because I know is not working on 4.3 and in fact had an update. Extracted the .apk and .odex and are on other post. And whent ahead and unlocked bootloader wish did normaly. Next went to install recovery and so it did. Then installed super user. All good. Final step change ROM so I did. When came the time to do it all again I couldnt. When I relocked phone it erased side loaded ROM and RUU don't work. Hit error as is tries to identify version. Hope HTC releases the update. If anyone has any way of getting RUU to work please page me. I would love to replicate the update for you guys
A ~250MB update is going to be the 1.31.651.2 OTA. If it is anything different than 4.1.2 then please post screen shot of About Phone -> Software Information screen. Appreciate it.

I already posted the new Sprint VVM in hopes it will fix the problems people are having with the 4.3 roms. I dont know how to compile it so i added the .apk and the .odex if something else is missing please tell me.

I hope for your sake that you are just misunderstanding something because the mods have said that the next person to post a thread about a fake 4.3 update is going to get banned. The 4.3 update is not just 250 mb as has been said and is just the 1.31 update which is still 4.1.2.

Hey, they aren't hating. They just don't like being teased. This site sometimes has the worst trolls. I read your history. You seem reputable. It just seems odd that you have this update.
