This is a very intriguing situation here. While I find nothing wrong with just having the Droid rooted, and it being crazy fast as is, the simple idea of having it look a little different may be cool, but I am actually using a different home launcher so it makes little difference to me. I know overclocking a dual core phone is possible (if done correctly?) but in any event, I will be keeping an eye on this one.

this is great. mostly because i dont want to have to wait 'till q3 for ics to be released officially. a ics custom rom in the coming weeks would be spectacular.

Sweet. I wish I had found out about CM when I had my OG. When I finally loaded the ROM, it looked AMAZING. Now I get to look forward to it for both the D4 and Bionic.

well this is great news the more that comes to the droid 4 the better. although i will not be installing or rooting till i get my hands on some fastboot files.

I'm pretty excited about this myself. Had CM7 on my xperia play and it rocked. On a side note, doesn't the CM roms require a custom kernel? So does this mean we will be getting fastboot stuff soon as well?

If the phone has a locked bootloader (which it does) the ROM works on the stock kernel. Has no choice but to. And even though a phone gets a custom ROM does not mean you will be getting fastboot files at that time. That's why a lot of people wait until those files become available before ROMing their device.

Thanks for the info. I'll be waiting until we get fastboot or something. I'd be too scared of bricking my device and no way to recover without it.

Yeah, this will be great, but useless until we have SBF or fastboot files to use.
