So with ICS on the way to OTA within the next few months, there's sure to be some custom ISC roms for the bionic, right?
Since JB is an incremental upgrade from ICS, will developers be able to get JB on the bionic before it's official announcement/release?

In order for JellyBean to be fully functional on a device, it needs a kernel that supports all the features that are a part of the operating system.
Since Moto's phones have a locked bootloader, it prevents the kernel from being modified by anything except official updates from Motorola.
If we see any JB ROMs on the Bionic, they're going to be incomplete and unstable (like how ICS ROMs were before the ICS leaks) because they won't be able to run with a kernel that supports all its features.
Imagine having a Nissan and wanting to put a Honda engine inside it instead. None of the connectors and parts are going to fit together properly and you're going to have to make a bunch of small hacks/mods to make it work, and you can only hope that it behaves properly once you put it all together. That's pretty much what it's like to force a kernel mismatch on locked bootloader devices.

This means almost nothing for the Bionic. The Bionic gets to be saddled with a kernel for ICS 4.0.4 which won't support all the upgrades and tweaks made for JB. If we get a JB ROM it'll extremely difficult for 100% of the features in JB to work.
Hash code has kexec fully working on the Droid 3 running his 3.0 kernel. He has a cm9 rom for it almost ready to be released. On his twitter he said that he plans to port kexec to the other phones he supports which would be this bionic and the Droid 4. Dhacker is also working on jb for the razor which he plans to port to the bionic in the meantime.

Good news, but we are still playing the waiting game. Kind of BS for a phone that I paid $300 for. Its "My phone", and should have been unlocked a looooong time ago as stated by Verizon and Moto. Q3 2011 if I recall correctly. Oh well, I'll deal with my ICS leak until its official as at least it saves me the frustration of wanting to throw the phone against the wall.

I'm not a developer but, its my under standing that CM10 is Kexec ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kexec ) which allows the JB kernal to run on top of the ICS kernal and bypass MOTO's signature checks and locked bootloader. They have just started developing CM10 JB for the Bionic so they are having data issues and the camera doesn't work. Another guy said bluetooth doesn't work. Its not ready to be a daily driver yet.
Now on the plus side it is FAST and SMOOTH!! Google Speak is AWESOME!! Way better then Siri (Siri still can set appointments GS can't). Even though this is in Alpha stage and it came out 2 weeks ago IMHO this is going to be the way togo very soon once they get a few bugs ironed out. It will get there. We still don't technically have ICS for the Bionic and I can almost bet my right arm MOTO will not release an OTA JB.
Once they get everything up and running I would jump on JB for my bionic in a heartbeat...Having ICS is nice (honestly I forget it's not the official build because the phone runs so much better already) but nothing is as smooth as butter.
agreed

Be patient. CyanogenMod is a source built ROM, it's compiled from source and the source code is a mix of AOSP from Google/Android and the CyanogenMod Team's own programming. Hashcode has been working very hard on getting the source ported so that it will compile and run on the Droid 3. He's also working on making it work in a "sandbox" area so as not to affect the stock ROM (easy to switch back and forth between the two).
All the current ROMs for the Droid 3 are modified stock ROMs. Some theme changes, app deletions/additions, a few build.prop edits, etc...

I am not that well versed on CyanoGen... I started off with a D2, and the flexribbon broke before I was able to see the dawn of custom kernels. Is cyanogen truly a custom kernel? If so, I assume we're trying to hijack the boot process to load dual kernels?

CyanogenMod on locked bootloaders hijacks the init process and runs on top of the stock kernel. No kernel replacement on locked bootloader phones.
Yyup, that's what I thought.
Also, according to Hashcode0f, well be seeing a CM7 beta in the very, very near future. He's going to be writing a dossier up on it shortly.

Even though it has a bootloader, that doesn't mean the development cannot take place. Why not develop now so when the bootloader gets unlocked, you will already have a pretty descent ROM to flash on!

Honestly, I don't believe the bootloader will ever be unlocked. It will have to be unlocked by Motorola and I just do not believe that they ever will.
So developing ROMs (from source) will require using the 2nd-init process CM7 is using to boot the "new" OS on top of the stock kernel. Kernel will remain stock.......

If the acquisition passes through (which likely won't be soon).. word is Google bought them more for patents than for anything else. If we're lucky, Google might make sure future phones are unlocked. However I highly doubt Google will do anything about phones already released.
Plus Moto said they would release an update to unlock the bootloaders where carrier approved. The other variations of the droid 3 may get unlocked, but I doubt big red will give their approval for unlocking the droid 3.

Doesn't help make a good ROM as any rom based off an emulator image is going to have issues.
What they released is an emulator image to help you when developing apps. It's an SDK (Software Development Kit) and not very useful to ROM building.

Sounds like the newly launched Droid Razr will get ICS in early 2012:
http://www.ubergizmo.com/2011/10/motorola-droid-razr-to-receive-ics-update-in-2012/
I imagine this means the Bionic will get it as well since its similar spec'd to the Razr (both have 1GB RAM), and unless RAM is an issue we should get it on the Droid 3.
Or else we will have to wait for a 3rd party ROM to do the job once the ICS source is released, if its possible with the locked bootloader. The OG Droid runs Gingerbread on only 256MB of RAM, ICS will probably run on 512MB of RAM without all the bloat of an OEM rom.

Hey brobeans. Just sayin, every Moto phone with 1GB of RAM has 512MB exclusively for webtop. That means Android never touches it unless it's in webtop mode. So those phones are actually identical to our D3.

Easy. SDK's are for software development (apps). It is support for coding apps on Android. Each version of the OS gets an SDK as new API's are added or updated, etc... It's only useful for writing apps for the version OS the SDK matches.
Software Development Kit - build apps
AOSP is the source code to the Android OS (ROM). It is what is used for those that compile ROMs from source (most devs seem to either modify the stock ROM off the phone or copy CyanogenMod's source tree and not Google's). Android Open Source Project is where the ROM source code is and you can use this to build ROMs (though you need a lot more than just AOSP).
Android Open Source Project - build roms.

Actually right now the CM10 is preferred to use safestrap instead of bootstrap since it's in alpha stage. I tried it with safestrap 2.0 while running .232 on safeside. Very smooth and responsive with WiFi only for data.
You might want to brush up on your bootstrap skills since the ICS leak roms will only be able to load up with it to completely run. The ICS leak roms will require a much larger partition to run on and safestrap doesn't provide it.
Hi, new to the bionic but have been flashing my x and x2 for a while. I'm on the .232 leak with safestrap 2.0 installed. I got as far as >safestrap menu>enable safe system but then a warning screen appeared saying something along the lines of "are you sure, this cannot be undone", which scared me. Obviously i would like to return to my unsafe side.
also, i have read this link http://www.droidforu...ions.html������ which says i must go to mounts and storage and format /system. however i havent seen that step anywhere else i've looked. I assumed once i got to the safe system i should just flash the cm10 zip and gapps then wipe the big three. this is preventing me from flashing cm9 as well.
in regards to the rom itself, any update on data, im in a pretty well covered 4g area. also, i use my phone as a hotspot around my apartment and was wondering if anyone could confirm the cm10 hotspot works.
thanks in advance if you can answer any or all of these questions

Yes. Be on an ICS leak, and if you use Safestrap you install it on the safe side.

Vague reply is vague and potentially FUD. If you could explain your comment about the safestrap partition size, it would likely be appreciated.
The way I understand it is that Bootstrap is required for custom ROMs based on blurry ICS. If you're flashing an AOSP/CM based custom ROM, then Safestrap is sufficient. The reason being that Safestrap stores /system inside the /preinstall partition since it's mounted on boot and the internal or external sdcards, I'm thinking, are not.
/preinstall is not large enough after the ICS leak has been flashed to store a full blur based custom ROM and the original /system
Why moto decided to mess with the partition tables is beyond me. I can only guess that they needed more room on /system because ICS is bulkier than Gingerbread and they robbed Peter to pay Paul by taking the left over space from /preinstall. Novel solution, but it causes problems with safestrap.
This remap of the partition tables would also explain why an ICS version of Safestrap and Bootstrap had to be made.
safestrapped over .232 no data and i have the screen rotation bug. still awesome though
anyone have a working link to this and maybe screen shots?

Thanks for posting the link. It has been removed from the developers site. From what I've read they want to button up there CM9 project so its finished and then they can put there full attention towards CM10. The latest Targa version was from 9-1-2012. They removed it about 6 days ago. I have it but haven't installed it yet. I don't have a way of uploading it if it works. I think data is better but still buggy in this update and so they took it down till they can get a better version out.
You can upload it with the dropbox app and link to your dropbox account for people to download. With android, there's always a way.

I'll post more details as it gets closer. Right now that build has some data issues that we're working through, and the camera is non-functional.
Either way this needs some polishing and we need to wait for an update anyway. I am going to keep an eagle eye on this CM10 project and keep everyone up to date as things progress. Thanks to the Devs Hashcode and dhacker29!!

What does it say when you go to System Settings > About Phone > Android Version?
If it's 4.0.x, then ICS; 4.1.x, JB.
It says 4.1.1
Things are getting stable!

I've updated the links in my OP. I'm downloading it now. A big round of applause for dhacker29 and hashcode for their hard work on this!
Will our get Android lollipop through Cyanogenmod?
I doubt it as we can't even get the official KK bootloader which may or may not be required for Lollipop.
I tried Android L on my Nexus 4 and didn't really like the new interface.

Im actually quite content with my custom rom kitkat with the Gem Flat skin on top of it. (really quite stable just ui crash twice per week).
But then the unthinkable thing happens with one of the oldest moto droid devices went from ICS to Kitkat without any official updates due to alot of developers.
Anything is possible

I guess its standard to question if we will see something BEFORE THE ACTUAL PUBLIC RELEASE HAPPENS AND BEFORE CYANOGENMOD, WHICH IS NOT MOTOROLA, GETS THEIR HANDS ON IT TO SEE WHAT THEY CAN DO ABOUT PUSHING IT OUT TO OUR DEVICES.
Btw, as far as that bootloader point goes, ask yourself this, do the older devices that got left behind on GB or ICS need updated bootloaders to run KK? B/c i can guarantee i can grab my Atrix 4G or my Droid X and see KK running on both of them with GB bootloaders.

Is this a signal?
I Think, yes.
Because, this night, someone did an Android L ROM For the HTC Evo 3D [POST]
I Remember, this phone has come to the world running GB, well, ROM Is still buggy, but see, that device more older than Atrix HD, I Don't know if that device has an ''updated'' bootloader [like bootloader for ICS or JB], But i think this would be a great news for this device.
I Already tried Lollipop on a Nexus 4 [Is the official update], an i really liked it. i think is better than KK, [ppl comming here and spammin' ''KK Is better'' in 3.... 2.... 1.....]
If HTC EVO 3D Has Lollipop, Our Atrix HD's can have Lollipop too :victory: , the only thing we need is hope, and a brave developer.
and please sorry about my bad english~ :silly:
Maybe.
Soon

our devices upgrade has to do with more than kernels I need to backport some ion commits to the new qcom branches lot of guess work to what is needed and what isn't. Basically have to make a custom qcom folder for jbbl. As for the kernel there are lots of ways to get this right but it will need lots of time and testing.
