    Root Eclipse version 1.2 rom now available for ICS .246

    Nitro has done it again! I have installed his rom for the .246 OTA official update and love it! If you've ever ran one of his roms, things are a little diffferent. You have to be running safestrap version 3.05 to intall this new rom. This means you cannot have bionic bootstrap installed (CWM)...

    Help Wifi incredibly sluggish, suggestions?

    Alright, I dunno if the way I'm doing this is what's causing this, but here it goes. I just added the hotspot tethering to my account and am using it for my computer and my other bionic which is not activated. The computer seems just fine but the unactivated bionic running running from the...

    Root Clockwork mod and Bionic bootstrapper question.

    Is it necessary to to have cwm installed along with the bionic boot strapper? I ask because I never use clm for anything and always do things in bionic bootstrapper recovery mode such as back ups and restores. Is there any benefits to even intalling/flashing Clockwork mod? Does it somehow...

    I have a question, I'm building a guide to stop Verizon OTA updates to ICS and JB.

    It's not of popular choice, but there are those for what ever reason who do not wish to upgrade to ICS or JB. I put together a guide on the bionic forums and suspect all Verizon motos are the same. I think it's only fair that those who do not wish to upgrade have a choice and I wish to...

    Webtop 3.0 officially sucks!

    I may sell my bionic, any offers??? First off, I walk away and the music disconnects on my bluetooth headset when the screen goes to sleep. Second, I can no longer BLOG with even the mobile browsers.. F*ck you Motorola... They might as well just offer the mirror mode only! lol Damn, I knew...

    Root I'm not going to worry about verizon and rooting! lol (ICS Root checker)

    So like yeah. I fxz'd back to 905 stock unrooted and did the update. Before I rooted I figured I would check the root checker in the stock recovery menu. Guess what? It read "1/1"! For those of you that don't know, that's supposed to be this thing that alerts if the phone is or ever was...

    Any significant differences between ics .232 & .246

    Is there any significant difference between .232 and .246? The more I'm using ics on my daily driver, the more I like it (Still don't care for webtop). This is kind of a poll, so please be descriptive. :) I'm asking because I have not found any real side by side comparisons. If there's...

    Alright, I said would never run ics, but...

    I have two bionics, both blocked from the ota update. I went ahead and did a clean install of .232 and you know, I really like it despite webtop 3.0! People were right! this phone flies now! So far adobe flash appears to be working. All my apps work except Resco radio, no biggie. When...

    Gingerbread doesn't use both cores of the cpu??? Then my app is lying.

    I've heard it from more than one source that the gingerbread OS doesn't utilize both cores. I have an installed called "System Panel" It says different! If I go into menu/monitoring and move the screen up and down really fast to put a load on the phone, the first core lights up and the...

    Getting a little peeved at verizon... Going on my fourth replacement!

    My first bionic had connection issues, it got replaced. My second one developed connection issues, it got replaced (They sent me an htc thunderbolt by mistake and the next day sent my third bionic). It has dust under the camera lens and the voice quality is garbly and distorted. So my next...

    Help Hooking up an external hard drive to HD dock? Please help!

    I have not had much luck googling this info... What I did find is something to the effect of modifying the data cord. Would this idea work? I want to get a powered usb hub. I would get a double male ended usb cord and run that from the pc output to the droid bionic HD dock and plug the...

    Help 4g data keeps dropping to 1x

    I bought this phone for my wife because of the unlimited 4g data, text and talk. Verizon was putting the screws to me having her on my account! Lol Anyways... I'm quite sure it's just the typical metro pcs service, but maybe I'm missing something here... She'll have two bars of 4g signal...

    Why the "ICS" update may not be a good idea

    I'm the type that has specific uses for my phone. I own two bionics and will be ordering another one! I don't need Quad cores and gigs of ram, just a smartphone that does what I want. The Bionic wound up fitting the bill. With the ICS update there are risks (This is only my opinion and not...

    Root Bricked, fixed and re-rommed!

    Yup, I'm one of those who bricked my Bionic. Thanks to having a downloaded stock operating system (.902), people who made videos and instructions and rsd lite 5.6 I was able to return to stock! But that wasn't good enough... No... I had a wicked curiosity about running other roms. I...

    Officially saying good bye to Rezound

    I want to thank all the members that helped to try to get my Rezound working to my satisfaction. :) I found a buyer and was honest with him about the browser issues. He didn't seem to care! I'm loosing my *ss on this phone, but I am very specific for my needs and a perfectionist. Selling...

    Root reverting BACK from "No root required" ice cream sandwich, please advise!

    I went ahead and used the ics leaked rom where root was not required. Everything is fine, but the browsers still have issues. THIS PHONE HAS NEVER BEEN ROOTED! I may be able to get into a different phone, but not with ics on it. I found an ruu file on xda, it was just over 400 mbs. The...

    Root Rooted my first HTC!

    I finally got around to rooting my wife's Thunderbolt. It was kinda scary because I was used to playing around with my droid x. I learned how to find and flash different radios and custom roms. I like the liquid rom the best so far, but it's her phone. It was tough because of the updates...

    Root Loading gingerbread from scratch on rooted bionic. (Experienced with droid x)

    Alright, I had a droid x that I had rooted. Following some instructions it was incredibly easy to do! 1. My question is, can the bionic's operating system (Stock factory) be reloaded using ubuntu linux like it was done with the droid x? I understand Motorola isn't using sbf anymore...

    Moved from HTC rezound (Got my new Bionic last week)

    I guess I'll be poking around in the bionic forum section now! lol I've found more satisfaction with the Droid Bionic as compared to my rezound. I am not quite sure what I will do with my Rezound. So far I love the Bionic, it seems snappier and despite what the signal bars say, its keeping...

    Traded Rezound for Bionic

    Well, we'll see it how it goes! I'm nervous because I heard so many negative reports about the bionic... Knock on wood, so far so good. It appears to be snappier than the rezound and the web browsers all work great. Plus the webtop feature is what I like. The trouble I was having with the...

    Reconsidering the Rezound

    If you have a phone like the droid X, Hang on to it! This phone (The Rezound) is great for a first purchase, but not as an upgrade in my opinion... My Droid X did a great job... (Cries) Miss her... Maybe I'll sell this rezound... The "X" had it's flaws, but was faster in the long run...
