1) yes
2) http://www.psouza4.com/droid3/ for rooting, check the roms for XT860 in the dev section. (i'm not very familiar with XT860)
3) I'm not sure for XT860
4) Yes there are ICS roms which are stable and working, but some features don't work like video recording, hdmi, and some bluetooth issues(?)

thank you sir appreciated. i hope somebody will answer question 2 and 3 hopefully
I believe that most XT860 ICS ROMs have a flashable patch which includes a fixed build.prop and libmoto_ril.so to get data functioning.
how to unlock this phone ? what is the way ?

Do you have an XT860, or Droid 3 (XT862), or both?
If it's the XT862, and I'm assuming you've used the SIM card from your carrier, not a US one, then you should check the Network Mode. Do this by going to Menu -> Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Mobile networks -> Network Mode, and make sure it's not set to CDMA.
If it's the XT860, that shouldn't even be an option.

I'm not sure whether they lock out the other carriers in Canada like Verizon does with AT&T/T-Mobile, but if that is the case, you'd probably need a SIM from somewhere else.
Here's what people have to do to get the D3 to work with AT&T and T-Mobile, though I don't know if something similar would work on the XT860.
Good luck.
man im screwed. i bricked razr xt910 so i bought this phone and now i cant even use this either. sigh
i have another concern,
i typed on my droid *#06# and it doesnt show up an imei number
in the back there is a sticker with the imei number but when i input the code or try to look through about phone section of the droid there is no imei number stated
what is that supposed to mean?

If it's Droid then it's for CDMA. I don't think it's a good idea to try it on Milestone.
This has been repackaged as a ROM. It will not work on the milestone, under any circumstances.
Could a moderator or the OP perhaps re-title this thread in light of the fact that the update in question will not work on a Milestone?

Question is pertaining specifically with the title. It specifically states "DROID" and the question addresses if this will somehow work due to it being signed by motorola.
Perhaps, it will be helpful if there is a developer who can torn the package not to include the radio which is the only difference of milestone to a droid.

The title of this post seems to suggest that we, the Milestone owners, can accomplish this installation and it would somehow invite us to do so.
Motorola signed the Droid firmware to run on a Droid, not a Milestone. There are additional internal hardware differences beyond the radio, and there are software differences that permeate several components of the OS.

If it were so cut and dried, we'd have custom roms by the butt load.
It isn't
I really wish people would stop assuming that life is simple because almost every other android device has custom roms...
The milestone could have custom roms right now and it wouldn't make a difference, because we couldn't load them.
Here is how to update your motorola droid to android 2.2 froyo FRF84B.

Per your request, title has now been changed.
Moved to general since it isn't related to development.
This will not work on Milestone, it is built for Droid which is CDMA. Droid and Milestone are two different devices, they require completely different ROMs. There is no Froyo ROM for Milestone out there yet, neither official nor leaked.
Please be patient.
Thanks
Hello,
I'm having a strange problem with my Milestone, i upgraded to the official ROM rentail 2.2.1, now it does not connects to the operator, but can browse the internet through 3G. How is this possible?
What do I already did:
- Master Reset
- I changed the baseband to Brazil (I'm from Brazil) through the OpenRecovery
- Use the tool BaseBandSwitcher
- Try different Roms
- I tested an older chip with the same operator
None of this worked, researched a lot and saw that many people have the same problem, but found no solution.
Please help me!
Thank you.

Thanks.

You can't change a kernel on the Milestone. The bootloader is locked so you can't actually flash a custom kernel. The overclock is because of the 10overclock file in /etc/init.d, which overclocks the phone to 1GHz, and 5 steppings, depending on the load that the phone has.
I would try calling tech support for your carrier and having them make sure you meid number (under the battery) matches the one hooked to your account. also check the number under settings/aboutphone/status on your droid.
Hello all i've installed Minimoto v1.7 XT862/XT860 in a Milestone 3 (xt860, personal, argentina) in safestrap and everything went fine.
The problem is i've lost 3g.
It's seems the rom lacks the baseband radio for personal argentina and no internet connection can be established.
It's not an APN issue, tried to load them manually, imported from the stock rom but doesn't work.
Anyone has a way to add basebands (or modify the USA band that only comes with the rom).
The rom works fluid and is very light and the battery is awesome (i cannot tell 3g because never worked, only wifi) but the battery last at least 24 hours using 8-10 hours of wifi aprox.
Thanks in advance
You should look around the mini moto forum in the development category. It involves flashing a different radio and different build.prop

Make those changes to the build.prop file in the system folder of the minimoto rom, copy the 'new' minimoto zip to your phone, wipe and reflash. That worked for me.
Sure its not an APN issue? Have you tried tried mannualy typing in the APN and username and password for your provider? I have Minimoto on a GSM network and it didn't work at first either but then I just added the right APN values that I looked up on the internet for my provider and then it worked.
Hi,
All you have to do is install minimoto for the xt860, it's in the OP in the minimoto thread. Then, having wifi turned on, install HiAPN (it's an app to automatically set apn's) from Google Play. Use it to set your apn and you're good to go. I'm using it just fine on Movistar Argentina.

I finally got my AHD rooted and unlocked, and I've seen people mention a thread about installing CWM manually and another for enabling LTE on various ROMs, but I can't, for the life of me, find those threads. Could someone point me in the right direction?
Also, I've already tried Batakang (not Rises) and Joker and neither found any signal on AT&T.
I see the AOSPizza and Batakang Rises (should) get signal on AT&T but I'm not sure.
Thanks, in advance, for the help!
They both should get signal problem. The thread for the razr to Atrix fix is.

When you say unlocked, do you mean SIM unlocked? If so, how did you go about doing that?

I'm sure he meant bootloader unlocked. There's no method we know of other then asking third party sites.

Yes, I meant Bootloader unlocked.
I looked in the thread you linked above and it doesn't have anything relevant to me. I don't (think) I have a problem getting LTE or wifi, just connecting to AT&T. I looked under Settings-More...-Mobile Networks, and the APN section is greyed out so I can't add AT&T info. Currently using AOSPizza, hoping to use it as a daily driver.
Hi All
I am trying to use a custom ROM for my Moto X. But in the available ROM's i tried the data connection or the phone did not work. My guess was , it might be the wrong version - developer edition.
My first question is, which variant of Moto X is mine? XT 1052? How do I know it?
Then , the next is are there any custom ROM's for my phone?
please note, I have unlocked the boot loader and my phone is not carrier dependent.
The following are some of the details I found from my phone, please let me know, if you need more.
Build # KLA20.16-2.16
SYSTEM VERSION - 161.44.16.ghost_row.Retail.en.EU
Appreciate any response.

Your phone appears to be the European version of the GSM unlocked Moto X.
If you look on the back of your phone, near the bottom, there MAY be printed a model number in very small print...
Since it is a GSM phone, the data connection will not work until you input the proper APN for your carrier.
The stock rom probably has the correct APN already added - and that is why data works on the stock rom, but not the ROM you have flashed.
You will need to get the APN settings for your carrier, and input those settings into your X. Search the forum for details on APNs.
Good Luck

I found my version is XT 1052.
Let me clarify, its not just the data connection, but the phone features, liking making a call or mobile data get disabled, if I try any of the custom ROM's like PACMAN or carbon etc, which are for developer edition (as they have a suffix _dt, my guess).
When I try to make a call, it says, please turn off the Airplane mode, when it is not in Airplane mode.
My question is : are there any custom ROM's available for XT 1052, if not, is there a way, where I can use the other versions ROM and tweak it, like use their KERNEL or something else?
I am not sure, what to do.. Please advise..
Thanks..
