Hi, I am on an ICS rom and it's too problematic. I want to get back to a GB rom. Any recommendations for a fully functional one?
I like Eclipse 2.2.
Been running it foe a while without issue.

Eclipse is pretty much the only fully functional ROM available and its pretty awesome.

The developer has tweeted that an update to Eclipse based on the .904 leak is in the works and ready for testing
for now I would run the .902 eclipse
Eclipse most def.

I've been using Liberty for a while. I tried some of the Gummy releases as they are more or less the same thing but ICS, but the stability wasn't there yet. I just restored my Safestrap backup of Liberty I took before installing Gummy, though.
I went from AOKP to stock .902 GB.... Now im updating to .904 and trying gummy cherry
I'm running the .904 build if eclipse and its really awesome so far. only problem is the volume buttons don't work but that is remedied by a using an volume control program like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=rubberbigpepper.VolumeControl. but other than that its the best GB ROM there is in my opinion.
Edit... someone posted a fix for the volume buttons in page 6 of the eclipse forum. eclipserom.com/vforum/showthread.php?1612-ROM-Eclipse-Bionic-Build-01-4-26-12 i'm sure nitro will update the ROM soon with the fix.

I actually switched to stock and kept root, for me, this has worked out the best because I use the wifi tether regularly

Og droid with project elite 4.2, ruby rom 2.0.2 boot.img which contains the kernel, v6 supercharger rc5 option 3, and launcher pro is ridiculous. I know I promised a few the link which I'm working on, but if you want I can send it your way.

GB roms easier to locate at droidforums.net
Mavrom is popular and runs well on my D3.

Liberty3 2.0 allows you to remove the Blur launcher and use an AOSP one in its place. For the battery life especially, Liberty3 was my favorite GB ROM before I went to ICS.
Liberty3 2.0 ROM
I agree with pgzerwer, ROMs are much easier to find and navigate over at Droid Forums.

This same feature is in mavrom. Mavrom has continued support. Liberty does not. Just trying to help you make a decision.

Nice! Didn't know that! I wished Liberty still had support when I used it. I'd suggest Mav now that I have this knowledge, unless max battery life is worth trading support...even though Liberty seems pretty decent as it sits.

If you liked Liberty you should check out Gummy, it's ICS made by the same people.
Thanks im using mavrom now but im a flashoholic im going to keep flashing until I find the right rom or ice cream sandwich has face unlock whichever comes first but you guys have been very supportive thanks

I have seen these types of threads in other device forums that have been stickied so I figured I should get one going over here in the Bionic section. I will try to keep this updated as much as possible.

Just updated OP with Eclipse 3.0 by NitroGlycerine Rom Review!
I have a Droid 3 XT862 which has been running Liberty 2.0 for the last year or so. Now that an official Motorola update has been rolled out, I started wondering if it's time to switch ROM again, maybe back to the stock Droid 3 software.
I have some WLAN issues with Liberty 2.0, so I've tried a couple of times before to switch ROM. Last time it was to MavROM 4.0. Unfortunately, I've always had to come back to Liberty 2.0 because that is the only ROM (except for stock Motorola Droid 3) that will allow my bluetooth headset to connect.
What ROM do you guys recommend for someone that needs bluetooth headset support? Because of the WLAN problems with Liberty 2.0, I'd really like to try something else. Is the stock Motorola Droid 3 ROM my best bet?
Thanks!

Thank you all! I think I'll go ahead and flash the Motorola Droid 3 stock firmware and see what happens.
wondering what's the best rom for my droid 3 if I'm using spb mobile shell? I never done a custom rom before but I've heard they get rid of unnecessary apps and run faster. is there a rom with just the basics nothing fancy?

Right now all our roms are based of the Droid 3 stock software (due to a locked bootloader). Hashcode is working on a special system/method that will let us use full roms . As a result rom development has kind of paused until he is finished. I recommend any 2.3 based rom except Liberty's. He hasn't updated his rom in about 8 months. Team Haters, Maverick and Steel Droid are the most current ginger based roms at the moment.

Unfortunately it's running on the old 890 and it has caused problems for some.
Use Maverick. Its the most stable rom i have ever used. People say eclipse is fast but i had bugs every once in awhile with eclipse, while not major at all, i never had a bug with maverick. Also the dev keeps it updated with the latest updates.
I'm running mavROM v4.5 with TSF shell and it works great
Sent from my DROID3 using xda premium
I second the MavRom recommendation especially as a stock blur replacement. I'm running Mavrom in my /systemorig partition as a daily rom, which leaves the safe partition avalable to test the more bleeding edge stuff like kexec CM9
Thanks for the advice, I found the mavrom download but couldn't find hashcode's safestrap v1.06, but I found v2.01, can I use this or not?
