then restore in safestrap 3.05
Is there anything else I could do by staying on the MiniMoto ROM?

I suggest restoring stock and see if gps still works, or try a different rom.
Ive tried other ROMS no luck. Unable to restore stock

safestrap does not see backup or restore fails?
GPS doesn't seem to work when I recovered stock

Likely hardware failure, and no fix.
You can try
Flashing XML firmware
Or
Take it apart, maybe a bad connection to antenna.

Okay I thought of something. I had this phone on the Chinese version of the ROM. It was Chinese stock. After installing minimoto which uses Verizon ROM (Debloated and modified) maybe if I go back to the Chinese ROM my GPS will work once again.

And I never even restored stock. I forgot Because I was gonna do it but fell asleep

Hey guys,
Out of nowhere 3g data has stopped working..the icons in the statusbar change but i can't use it in any way.
Any ideas why?

Try checking your access point.
If you have multiple access point, make sure the right one is selected.
I only have one access point to choose from..
And still not working
Thanks anyway

Well... on the worst scenario, you could root your phone, install Rom manager, and flash a custom ROM like Nova v8 to see if it works. Then, if it works, you can flash again to Lg stock ROM and remove both superuser and Rom manager. This process is not my responsibility and will delete all your data first, so please back it up before proceeding. This has, however, worked for me pretty well.

i already had my phone rooted.
I just remembered that i had made a backup of the rom a couple of weeks ago. Restored it and everything is fine again.
Thank you!
Glad to hear that, flashing ROMS also fixed my problems in the past xD

can someone please port liberty from the D3 to the D4? i think all it needs is the LTE support and a change in the keyboard lighting code.
Is Liberty already available as a Safestrap ROM?
Sent from my DROID4 using XDA
its been available for the D3 since 2011 works in safestrap
Safestrap for d4?
Sent from my DROID4 using xda premium
i tried installing it today (D3 version of liberty) and safestrap installed it and the init d "speedy" hack fine, but it wouldnt boot.
I'd really like to see sense roms ported. I had core cell for my hd2 and loved it. Miss it lol
Sent from my DROID4 using xda premium
Did you make sure you were using a Safestrap compatible version? Remember a safestrap rom is different than a regular rom.
Sent from my DROID4 using XDA
i just took the D3 version of it that i was running on my d3 and flashed it. didnt boot though.
Can you give me a link to the thread where you downloaded the rom you are flashing?

If you read the first post, it explicity says "cwm only". It is not a safestrap rom. Also, liberty is based on the Droid 3 stock rom. If you want to port it, here are the first steps:
1. Get an updated Safestrap rom that incorporates the lates Motorola patch. (We will want the performance and battery boost it gives the d4)
2. DeOdex the ROM from step 1.
3. Prepare a sort of blank slate to start with, by ripping out everything not necessary.
At this point, we can start adding the Liberty customizations.

when i had the D3 i was flashing it with safestrap no problem,
lol i dont have the capability to port this over, i was hoping for someone else to try. or even make an AOSP/de blured GB rom out of the D4

I am in the process of doing this. I am currently trying to work with Hashcode to try to put together a Safestrap version of the D4 stock ROM with the latest OTA patch. I'm going to try to deodex and deblur it.
For now, have you checked out my Motoblur LT ROM?

Is it your motoblur LT deodexed? If so that is what I have been waiting for. I love gummy but would go full stock if I could change some or the icons safely. like the green battery icon. It just looks retarded with the blue 3g, 4g and wifi icons. If I knew how to deodex a rom I would attempt it myself, are there any instructions available for doing this ones self? Thanks for what you have done and are attempting.

Unfortunately, it is not yet deodexed. I just spent the last 3 hours trying to, and the resulting update.zip looks fine, but it won't boot. For now, though, it is very debloated and slightly deblured.

Are you sure you need deodex? I used ROM Toolbox to change battery icon on stock Razr ROM.
Is it possible to load any custom rom on my bell phone and just revert back if I needed to turn my phone in?

Also what is the most stable rom out there and does everything major in ics work?
Sent from my XT860 using XDA
There is the bell fastboot files available, so if needed you can just fastboot flash back to stock
Sent from my XT860 using xda premium
okay, and if I dual boot ics and stock what does safemode do? like is it actually installed and use it as a daily driver? if i dual boot do my texts come in on ics and data works and everything? haha sorry for asll the questions. but i really hate screwing up my phone. i did that wih my atrix alot
That's the idea of safestrap. I think I've described it a dozen times so read up and download it URL="http://blog.hash-of-codes.com/how-to-safestrap/"]here[/URL].
TL;DR - you flash to a temporary /system and can go back to stock whenever.
EDIT: Read your last post. Safestrap allows you to flash a rom without touching your current system. Your flashed rom will become your DD as it's sort of a pain to switch over. The idea is to keep a stock rom intact so you can receive OTAs and such
Ahh. I installed safe strap and its pretty cool. Is there a fix for cm9 on calling? The speaker doesn't work

Hi, guys,
I am recently rooted. I am experienced in rooting (Eris and Incredible), but you all know the Droid 3 is a little different. I am gaining CM recovery with the bootstrap app. I flashed gummy 1.2.0 but I keep getting stuck in the animation. I am wiping dalvik and data, and I know I am doing everything right.
I flashed Gummy 0.9 last night and it worked perfectly except I had no 3g, so I researched and discovered 1.2.0 was released which fixed the problem, so I tried it to no avail. I LOVED Gummy 0.9, and I would really love to have Gummy on my phone. Any suggestions would be great.
And yes, I have been searching the site since last night.
Try flashing Safestrap instead.

Hey guys, I know that not every rom is made for xt860 so Im just wondering, when I Installed minimoto it wouldn't connect to bell, It found it but then said my similar isn't compatible with the connection. I used to be on mav rom but out of nowhere it stopped working kept force closing my texting apps. I don't remember if installed a patch to get my connection working or something. Lol thanks if anyone helps me out with this. I've been out if the scene for awhile. Also can anyone confirm if YouTube, Facebook and guitar pro tabs work on ics? I also read ics has glitches with calling and mms. I don't have time to read through forums ATM so it'd be cool if someone could help me out with getting g this stuff installed. If I absolutely need to edit the build.prop to get it working then ill do that. If you can call, text and use Facebook and the ultimate guitar app then I want to switch to ics. Thanks
Tl;Dr: I don't get a connection on custom roms anymore and used to be able to
