The one you gave me is a blue smiley face.
 
Was on 906 Stock after SBF. Rooted and installed Safestrap. Switched over to Safe system and did the following:

1. Wiped Data + Cache 3 times
2. Wiped Dalvik Cache (Which apparently I have none of in the first place)
3. Wiped Battery stats
4. Wiped System

Installed the 1.2Ghz build. I'm running stable on it, however I'm running into a big problem. Any connection to 3G is extremely EXTREMELY slow, especially the Google Play market. So I went through the following with no success.

1. Did a factory reset (Did nothin)
2. Installed a CPU tool so I could use that fancy power setting
3. Mucked around settings (Still nothing)
4. Not even the Moto power settings did anything
5. I never once restored settings from Google or Titanium Backup
6. Decided to wipe the entire phone, switch BACK to Non-safe system, switch back to safe and wipe everything except system and THEN flash... to no avail.
7. Maybe if I waited 10 minutes after flashing and letting the phone settle it would work > Nope.

By the way when I was on stock, my download speeds from the play store were rediculously fast (I'm talking something like 200kb/s stock vs 20 kb/s this rom. On a side note, my friend running Steel Droid 4.6 had moderate download speeds from the play store, not as fast as stock but not as turtle slow as this build)

So just as a warning to anyone flashing this, don't expect to be downloading much from the Play store, because that's where it hit the most. The browser was pretty damn slow too loading up sites.

Now, that was the bad. Here's the good. I love the Overclock, I was playing Fruit Ninja and I get no jitters or stutters whatsoever. My phone only soft reset once, but that was when I tried loading an app before it was done settling after a flash. All in All, I love this rom and if you can solve the issues I'm having with the network connectivity/packet loss then she's a keeper.
 
Your problems with playstore are with playstore and have nothing to do with the rom itself..
you are hitting the playstore at peak times or when maintenance or improvements or heavy downloads are occurring..
plus now that playstore has moved from just handling app to trying to be a music/movie hosted and anything else they can make money off of has become garbage..but that's just my opinion
I have had typical 3g speeds on this rom with no problems
on a side note you could try this fix to try to gain a better signal

Wrong UMTS signal indication on XT862 [Fixed!!!] - xda-developers

I've tested it over and over on Play store with two devices running different builds at the same time. Your theory doesn't match up.

Perhaps I should take a video to demonstrate if you still don't believe me. Same device. Stock 906 downloads things from the Play store and browses internet way faster than this rom. Both latest updates...

Edit: This is the situation from eariler.

Device 1: Droid 3 with Eclipse 2.2.2
Device 2: Droid 3 with SD 4.6

So I try downloading Go Power Master from the Play store: SD 4.6 finishes way before Eclipse 2.2.2
I uninstall and test it again: SD 4.6 finishes way before Eclipse 2.2.2 (At this point Eclipse is going only like 20kb/s while SD 4.6 is like 150kb/s or higher)
So JUST TO BE SURE I do it one more time with Google Voice: SD 4.6 finishes way before Eclipse 2.2.2

And one more time with osu!droid: SD 4.6 downloads it in like 6 seconds. Eclipse 2.2.2 was so sluggish in its download that after about a minute I gave up and hit cancel.

So at this point I figure "Let me switch back to my stock system and try it again."

Device 1: Droid 3 with STOCK .906 OTA rooted WITH bloat.
Device 2: Droid 3 with SD 4.6

On all 3 of my tests, .906 finishes ahead of SD 4.6 I also did some tests with the browser. The .906 stock device is still ahead of the game. Now at this point I figure "Ok, maybe it was just a bad flash. I'll switch back to safe system and reflash the sucker and see what happens"

At this point you get a repeat of what happened before. Look, I'm not saying you're wrong or anything, but the way this rom is designed, SOMETHING is keeping ME from getting high connection speeds over 3G. Maybe it was a fluke, maybe it was an entire coincidence that everything started working again when I was on the stock rom.

Then again, I've had issues on older roms with my Wifi. Sometimes it would play nice, other times it wouldn't want to work at all. Always depended on which rom I was on.

Any thoughts?

My market downloads are nice and smooth. Full restore of all my apps is quick even when im driving at work.

Pages load fast I never use the stock browser cuz I dint like it.


There's tweaks in the build.prop to make 3g faster.
