Breif History:
This ROM came to be by being bored and not sure what else can be modified with the software Moto so lovely gave us on our devices. I stumbled on the Droid2 SDK and gave it a look to see what was inside. To my surpise it was a clean ROM. No signs of Blur. I thought to see if it would boot on device and it did. The resolution was horrible and the device was so slow. I told Matt and we began to get the system up and running. In no time we had a more stable system. AOSP packages were created for our app folder and here we are now. Along the way Drod2169 asked if I needed some help porting it over to the DX so he joined up to help us create the DroidX version.
About ROM:
First Vanilla ROM for Droid2, DroidX & Droid2 WE!
First ROM for Droid2, DroidX % Droid2 WE that can be overlocked!
This is not an AOSP ROM but all stock packages are built from source. It is a complete set of vanilla Android applications. All Blur has been removed so it is the closest you will get to a true AOSP clean ROM for the Droid2/X/WE/Pro right now. This is not a themed ROM to make it look like AOSP ROM.
The purpose of this ROM was to remove all Blur and have a real Android experience. Please do not ask to add anything to ROM. Everything that is missing can be found in the Add On folder that was created when you installed ROM or can be downloaded from market.
The installed applications are all of your basic Android apps. Gmail, Voice Search, Car Home, YouTube and some other apps are missing since there are more updated versions on the market.
ROM has root, deodexed and zip alligned.
All downloads and support will be provided HERE.
It is hard to support so many different forums so that will be our new home base for now.
Thanks!

I think su has a permissions issue.... Oh well I was easily able to reroot. Just follow these instructions

If you just re-download super user from the market it works. Happened to me also.
Very minor point... can you remove the permanent bookmarks from the browser please?
Hmmm, not only lost root, but doesn't recognize usb. Great...
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
umm... there isn't anything wrong with root in this ROM. It's not part of the instructions but here's the steps for me to easily get root.
1. Launch Files or Astro from app drawer.
2. Browse to /sdcard/Fission/Essential_Apps
3. Install superuser.apk
4. While you're there, install DroidXBootstrap.apk as well to test root.
Hope this helps.

Those apps are worthless when you cannot get su permissions because you are no longer rooted. Even worse when you cannot reroot because phone no longer recognizes usb... don't tell me there are no issues. I have battery pulled, factory reset and still no usb. So unless someone can help me out, I am stuck with this rom that has no problems, due to the fact I cannot nanoid due to NO ROOT.

I haven't heard of that one. Make sure usb debugging is checked.
The only other option you have left is to flash the 2.2 ota sbf and start over.

Ok, I've been confused on this matter since Fission 1.0: I noticed the pics for this ROM on the topic linked to in the OP show an AOSP unlock screen, but I still have the normal one (with music controls) just themed to LOOK AOSP. Is this how its supposed to be? I was REALLY hoping for the aosp lockscreen, because for some reason the normal one bugs the crap outta me lol.
thanks for any answers
blah blah blah
lol.... everyone is taking everything way to personal! So the released rom had an issue.. 1st it was easy to fix and 2nd if you have gotten this far with your X you better know how to at least install root! Yelling at the developers who dedicate their time completely for free will get no one anywhere...
This is a great ROM and the developers should be commended for it!

Attn: Posting this mainly for rom devs. Most users here will have no use for this, so don't bother flashing. Instead, check out my Speedy thread >>HERE<< , which utilizes (and includes) this INIT.D Hack. Speedy dramatically speeds up your phone, improves battery life, and now blocks known Android/Moto User Behavioral Tracking, Logging, and Statistics.
----
This is for devs to include init.d in their roms to further add functionality, tweaks, mods, etc. that have to be loaded during start up. This INIT.D hack originally discovered by Naven!
Devs: You can test that this works on your roms by flashing and then checking for a ".ItWorks" file in /data partition. If you are using ES File Explorer or similar you will need to be sure to allow it to show hidden files, otherwise you won't see this file.
Download - <MODERATOR EDITED - LINK REMOVED> (This does not speed up your phone, check out speedy for that)
Nice to see you on this side. Thanks! I hope you dont mind but I posted in droid forums linking to the original speedy thread.
It works on Droid bionic running liberty 3 2.0 rc1. Just a heads up.

Bone stock, no.
Stock, rooted, with recovery, Yes.
Could you help me as to how? And are the benefits enough to bother? Cheers

So far, the speed improvements are impressive. Once app caches build back up, applications open almost instantly, homescreen scrolling seems a bit smoother, and overall functionality just seems better. I even loaded the resource hog that is Moto Blur, just to test speed and transition improvements, and I have to say, the Blur launcher flies now! No lag, no nothing, so I can only imagine what LPP, ADW, or the stock GB launcher would perform like. I can't speak on the battery life yet…I need to get a full charge before I test it out, but if you want functionality improvements, try this out!

1: Root your Droid 3 using the 1 click root method (search around XDA/Google)
2: Download Safestrap from Hashcode's website. - USE BOOTSTRAP IF YOU'RE ON STOCK/NON-SAFESTRAP ROMS
3: Install the .apk file using AppInstaller from the Android Market.
4: Start Safestrap (or similar) and allow superuser permissions - then install recovery.
5: Get Download All Files from Android Market.
6: Download the init.d hack.
7: Turn your phone off.
8: Press m + power, scroll down to BP Tools (volume down key) and select it (volume up key)
9: Scroll down to install zip from SD card (select using power button)
10: Go to internal sd card - downloads folder.
11: Find the init.d file, and install it.
12: Reboot the device (go to main menu on safestrap (or similar) recovery)
13: Done.

I'm sorry but my apps already 'almost instantly' load and blur launcher is pretty smooth too... (with ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 or V6 )
After enableing safe system my droid 3 wont boot anymore, so I cant use the flash option without safe system. Any other possibility to flash it?

I use Hashcode's tweaked Bootstrap, but I'd assume the Safestrap recovery would work just as well.
I wasn't trying to knock Blur before; it's always seemed pretty smooth, but there were certain things that would lag slightly, like the app drawer. Now, it opens instantly, and I don't have any redraw or lag issues with it. Also, since it is a graphically intensive UI, I would assume that a less "heavy" launcher would respond even better to these tweaks. Over all, I think that whatever launcher you run, this will make the experience a bit better…browsing is quicker, and more enjoyable, there's little (if any) load time with apps like Friendcaster and Bank of America, etc. I would say, just backup your current setup, flash this, and if you don't notice any improvement, just flash your backup... I find this to be pretty nice though.

Yes, it works with safestrap.
I am running SD3 with safestrap.
I made a backup with SafeStrap and flashed it on top of the SD3. Worked just fine.

Use Bootstrap. Its probably not booting because you need to install a ROM after you enable safe system for the first time.
Is there one out there for the Vivid based on the current HTC Sense ROM currently in use by AT&T? I have been looking for one that is stock with ALL of the AT&T bloatware crap removed without any additions or "improvements".
It would also be nice to have the ability for it to OTA update or at least whoever makes one to update it as needed.
If that's what you're looking for why not root it and debloat it yourself?

I am not opposed to that idea if there are directions out there on how to do it. I would love to know how to properly take the stock ROM and remove the stuff I hate about it from it and repack it.
If you root you can just flash a recovery, make a back up of the stock rom and then download an app like no bloat from the market and remove whatever apps you don't like or need. Not sure if that's an option for you.
Ess.boyer's stockish or Aus_ azn's lightweight on rootzwiki at both great ROMs.

I tried NoBloat on SIL's Verizon DROID BIONIC. There are a few Verizon apps it appears to not list.
Debloating is quite simple
Start with a stock rom (the rooted one "for chefs or whatever" will be perfect
Download and install "7zip" on your computer
Open up the rom zip using 7zip
Navigate to system/app
delete any unwanted apps (careful...some are neccessary fir the phone to run)
You could also add in any apps you want as well
The above is whqt got,me into deving fir android although i still dont consider myself a dev...still have much more to learn
The alternate route is to flash the stock rooted rom
Then install titanium backup from playstore and uninstall apps from there

Is there anyway I could download the stock ROM from HTC and convert it into an editable .zip? If not, I might give this a shot.
I knew we had something like this around. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583028) Stock ATT rooted.
Features:
ICS 4.0.3
Rooted
De-odexed
Zip-aligned
init.d scripts support (Currently only holding a test script)
All the original AT&T bloat you could ever dream of
Still has the bloat but at least you have something to start with and you could debloate from there.

Just use what es linked...its alot easier...turing a ruu into a flashable zip is a pain...you need linux so you can mount the proper partitions/system images and the extract...

Hey,
i really don't know how to title this question, but i love flashing new roms and try a lot, so i'm looking for a software suite or an app, where i can backup my important stuff(Whats App, xda,Pictures, etc.) and then can flash a new rom and recover the apps and other stuff back, so that i have a new rom installed but with my old stuff on it.
Is there something like that ?

my contacts are synced via google
my notes are in evernote
my picture and videos are saved to external sd card ... shouldn't be wiped @Flashing new rom ?! better backup to pc ?
the problems are all the 20-30 apps i install for a few days and than wipe again, titanium is no option because i have no root on 4,3(UB)
Can i say whatsapp, that it should make the backup on external sd ?
If you don't have root how are you going to flash a new rom?

Without root youre screwed, in all fairness you haven't installed everything properly, with an unlocked bootloader you certainly should have Root access to get the most of your phone, otherwise whats the point.
Do it all again, attain root access and then do what the user said a little earlier, although i prefer google keep for notes, it's lighter.
Titanium is a must have.
Since the beginning I was using Titanium.
But somehow I came over to Nandroid Manager Pro witch IMHO is just perfect and easier to use...

Hi Guys.
I remember on the Nexus 5 people were kind enough to offer flashable zips to reduce the height of the nav bar.
Is anyone able to do this for the N6?
Would greatly appreciate this.
I know that there are a few ROMs that have this in the options. I'm running liquid smooth, and it has this, and so many more customizations on top of it. If you're going to try a ROM, give liquid a try.

Mostly all custom roms have this feature. If I was op I'd just switch to a custom rom because even if someone made the mod (I can do it) then when the next Ota comes it's going to fail because you did system mods and then you're going to wonder why the ota didn't work.
Just make life easy for yourself and flash a custom rom. Find the rom that's best for you not because of what someone offered you. Each rom has their own unique experience. Some may have everything, some may have minimal and just what you need. Depends what you want.

I hear what your saying mate but flashing a rom would mean having to resetup all my apps and everything else.
With a flashable zip i could carry on using my phone without having to redo everything.
When an OTA arrives i would start start from fresh again but life would be easy as i use Titinium Backup to restore apps and data.

You just contradicted yourself, like you said you'd eventually have to redo it anyways since you're invalidating your ability to flash OTAs.

What im saying is i wouldn't have to do the apps as Titanium would store my apps, but not system apps.
When flashing a different rom that is a no no. On stock it isnt a problem.

Titanium can be used to restore user apps on any ROM. In fact that is the recommended course of action. Its not a no no. Only restoring system data is a no no, which you shouldn't do stock or otherwise
