are there no nice customized roms for bell like i installed steel droid rom GB version and i have to say its soo sweet im drooling all over myself.
so nothing customizable for bell ?

I have used every rom available on my bell xt860 and have never had that issue. Most roms need to have a patch flashed

These patches are for gb roms. Make sure you use the correct one for either bootstrap or safestrap

The patch should fix it. You need a different build.prop and libmotoril.so IIRC.

your phone is a xt862 or 860?

check your network settings, i presume you want to be ar CDMA-EVDO, NOT GSM, this may be the problem

D3 in Italy

So in five days I am going to italy for spring break. And I have no idea what fixes I need for gsm and what roms work for gsm. So with that being said could some one point me toward necessary files for gsm
Thanks in advanced.

So I assume you'll be using an italian SIM? Else couldn't you just roam?
For usage with GSM-SIM outside of USA you need to buy an unlock code (ebay, etc?)
Apart from that, you'll have a big change it'll just work.
If it does not:
1) you have an old SIMcard
2) you need to do some edits (e.g. vodafone)
3) stock rom is giving you trouble (for me sometime 3G wouldn't automatically turn on)
Just make sure your SIM slot is unlocked and you will be good. I don't think you will need the AT&T/T-Mobile hack.

Sweet thanks guys. I don't need any hacks and the sim card is already italy ready. But for ics roms is there a fix that I would need?

[Q]Droid 3 US Gsm ICS

How to get the Droid 3 on ics with US Gsm capabilities, i know this was possible on gingerbread, any ideas?
Hi,
The Droid 3 can be used only to Verizon in the USA even if you unlock the phone.
There is a thread for using it in tMobile not sure if it works. GSM will work only outside the USA. Flashing a Radio, recovery.. Etc are not possible in it because it has a locked and encrypted. bootloader... Only option is to use bootstrap..
If I'm wrong, please correct me...

Its possible
Use the Radio and build.prop from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1406812
There are two major ICS ROMs, one of them has better GSM support (can't remember which one)

It hasn't been updated with the ics build.prop
First, install the XT883 radio. Then, you can flash this zip I made to get it working.

So now you have the free choice to choose your OS did you want stock OS? Do you want GB or ICS Stock? Or you want CM or MIUI there are so many guides here that tell you what you need to do just say what you want.
Besides wouldnt it be nicer to have a OS that not labeled on a Provider?
I would like ics on it

Well ICS stock rom OR CM?
You should Consider changing the Bootloader to the ICS Bootloader some bugs are resolved in this. and most new ROMĀ“s are build for the new one.
So CM, MIUI or Stock based?
Stock

Actually wouldn't I need fido OS on it if I can reuse my code to unlock it again or would it be unlocked still.

This is because the T-Mo Modem should be edited for AT&T...
How do you edit modems?

I do not edit any modem, they are already modded, some great people here already did it for us. Since this post it kind of old, I do not remember who did it, but you can search in the thread.
Try going in to mobile network setting and registering in tmobile network.

Why would you want to do that? I am using Tmo service on an ATT Note with a ATT Rom and Radio. Runs flawless and I get 30 MBPS download speeds.

Which Att Rom you using and what modem you are using. I have i717 and I tried several rom's and modem's but still cannot find a good match.
If I load Tmo rom's, I can't even install them as the installation gets aborted before mine is i717 device which is att but I thought i717 and T879 same.
Anyways please let us know what's your combination so I can try it out too. By the way I am trying to use i717 with Wind Mobile in Canada which is same as TMO.

AT&T APNs

Im trying to use my at&t sim card in the t-mobile exhibit, and every time i try to add/save an APN, it never saves.
I've noticed I've only had luck with installing 1 RoM (cm 10.1 unofficial.. ancora etc.)
All other ROMS freeze after flash or have problems with system processes. Is there anything else i might additionally need to do when installing roms with no problems?
I flashed cwm, and stock-root. , then flashed roms: Is this how to root?
Am i missing anything?
Your help is greatly appreciated.

Try flashing your APN in stock then root and flash desired rom
Try
Thanks, will do.
Edit ** It still wont let me save any new APN on stock, try and see if any1 can save any APN. I highly doubt it will work.
Most likely, ill just buy an unlock code, If anyone knows where o get them chep let me know; so far I think they run $15.
