I have an issue with the lapdock.
on stock roms, it works fine. (as fine as it can, without the webdock application). it mirrors the phone display. But on a custom rom, the lapdock screen shows only Moto logo.
how can i make the lapdock be usable with that custom rom? what application is missing from the custom rom?
the rom in discussion is Eclipse.
thank you.

HELLO ...i am new to the Android world but an expert in the windows world...... i do also love linux
i have a Droid 3 XT862 running Android 2.3 and i want to experience the freedom of rooting my D3
i had hoped my first Android phone would be high spec running the latest OS (or almost) but i am not ready to risk using a touch-screen only phone because i hav had some bad experiences with touchscreen keyboards....thats pretty much why i got the D3 instead of the RAZR or the DROID BIONIC
QUES #1:
how difficult is it to revert back to my original Android 2.3 OS if i find it difficult to use a custom ROMS?? i really want to use my camera so a chance to revert bak to my original V2.3 wud be nice
QUES #2:
is the phones ability to install apps affected in any way by upgrading the Android version ( FOTA) or rooting?? for example..... i am going to test run my V2.3 os for a while and install many apps, will these same apps be able to install on the custom ROMS?? ...... wat are some of the advantages or disadvantages for installing apps on stock V2.3 and then try to install the same apps on any of the below custom roms:
OFFICIAL CyanogenMod 10.1 (Android 4.2.2): [NIGHTLIES]
[ROM][JB] [4.2.2] Avatar ROM for Motorola Droid 3 (solana)
[ROM][4.2.2][OFFICIAL] LiquidSmooth v2.1 - solana -
[ROM] Official PACman Droid 3
[ICS AOSP ROM] "AOKP" (Android Open KANG Project)
[ROM STEEL DROID]
[Closed]RemICS-UX v1.3.1 - Galaxy S3 on Your Droid 3
.....ETC
QUES#3 :
BBM Messenger will be available for phones running Android 4.0 or higher this summer, I am interested in trying it out and i want to know if these custom ROMS will allow me to install it without much difficulty......
QUES#4:
I am assuming that once i root my phone and install a custom ROM using safe strap or a similar tool, this is the same as dual booting, in which i can switch between stock os and custom ROMS at will.......am i right ??
QUES #5:
How may Custom ROMS am i able to install while making sure my phone is stable ??
THANKS MUCH !!!!!.....

Reverting to stock is as simple as plugging the phone into your computer and flashing stock firmware with a utility. Custom roms and rooting shouldn't affect app installation, with the caveat of some video rental apps won't work on rooted devices(piracy prevention). BBM should install on any custom rom ics and up, but until it's released we won't know for sure. All that being said, sometimes a particular app may have issues with custom roms but it's the exception, not the rule. Yes you can switch roms similar to a dual boot, although data from one rom isn't visible to another, like app data, text messages, call log. Sdcard contents are though. Safestrap creates img files for custom rom slots, you can have up to 4(in addition to stock) I believe, although I no longer use safestrap so I'm not totally sure. The more you have the less Sdcard space available and the custom roms can be pretty buggy sometimes. Personally I just flash over the stock rom since its so easy to return to stock if needed. I also only run gb roms since I need the camera

Cant thank you enough bro.... just glad that i can run ICS apps on the custom roms and revert back to Stock when i need it ..... and i think it will be a good idea for me to install a GB ROM as well .......
you said "The more you have the less Sdcard space available"......... does that mean these custom roms are supposed to STAY on the SD-card ??
i thought after u installed the custom roms, you could do watever you want to the SD card
This may be a dumb question, but in another thread abt wifi issues, I mentioned that I'm on Eclipse and my wifi works fine. Another user said that Eclipse is a stock rom, not a custom rom, and that's why I didn't have the WiFi problem.
I had to flash Eclipse so I therefore assume it's a custom rom. If this person is correct, then my question is, what is considered a custom rom? And why is Eclipse considered a stock rom?

Some ROMs are based on Stock ROM.. Without bloats....
Some change everything including the UI... Those are Custom.
This is how I was told.. :3

Eclipse is a custom ROM based on a stock build. Eclipse has been heavily modified but everything that works on stock will work on Eclipse and more.
Whats up guys. Thanks firstly for all I've learned by reading here. I cant find anything on this though. Can I keep the stock camera on my 2013 moto x with a custom ROM? I love its camera and have little for cm camera or whatever all the Roms use. I'm sure there's something here I just missed. Anyone point me that way?
Eclipse ROM is stock based and stock everything works just fine.
I have some questions about flashing this phone(XT1092) :
1º Are all roms compatible with all variants (specially XT1092)?
2º What are the best roms ( I mean less bugs, highest perfomance, longest battery life, all sensors working) ?
Thanks in advance (Sorry if english is bad :silly: )
1) Supposedly they should work on most models except for the xt1096 and any other CDMA model. The xt1092 is gsm, so everything should theoretically work.
2) Stock rom, I don't feel the need or desire to flash another rom because the stock rom is already perfect. And with greenify and xposed you can do anything you want with the stock rom, so I don't see any benefit in moving to another rom.

I would have stuck with just stock and root, but my device is only 16gb and the stock roms takes up a lot of space which is why I flash Cyanogen. You shouldn't use use Cyanogen nightlies as a daily driver since it will have issues, but currently it have everything working, like the wave, flashlight and camera gesture. I would wait until the next Snapshot/Milestone/Release Candidate version of Cyanogen for this device. Otherwise, just stick with stock and root it.
The Cyanogen rom works with both GSM and CDMA version.
Are all Roms discontinued for this phone? Can anyone make any recommendations on a good stable ROM? Thanks!
The stock rom is best - it's the only one with everything working. You can get most of the advantages of a custom rom with xposed and gravitybox Also the updated stock rom has VoLTE, even though it hasn't been certified by the carriers yet so it doesn't work!
.. but stock ROMs were also discontinued, why?

They are not stable?
Whatever ROM I used from this site could no sign in to Amazon Music app.
How to revert to stock ROM?

No, stock Roms are stable, but the dev who was working on maintaining it up to current update level, no longer has the phone, so can no longer continue with it. But they are stable.
The Amazon app itself needs to be updated. Do a google search, for Amazon apps not working , you will find some information about a browser component that needs to be updated.
I have an extra, screen is broken but it works, I would let someone have it if they will get lineage or something working good for us.
