[ROM] [R3]BLURR3D V2.0 PBX MOTO Kernel (10/22/2011)
- Thread starter DroidTh3ory
- Start date
- Status
NO MATTER WHAT ROM YOU ARE COMING FROM
THIS ROM WILL WIPE NOT. IF YOU ARE COMING FROM ANY OTHER ROM YOU MUST ALSO WIPE EVERYTHING, AND IN CLOCKWORK UNDER "MOUNTS AND STORAGE" FORMAT /SYSTEM.
FOR UPDATES: ALWAYS WIPE CACHE, DALVIK AND FORMAT /SYSTEM.
INSTALL THE ROM AND WALK AWAY!!! LET THE ROM SETTLE!!! RUSHING THE KERNEL WILL ONLY CAUSE YOU ISSUES. AND THE BIGGEST WARNING... KEEP BOTH HANDS ON THE DEVICE AT ALL TIMES.
STEP BY STEP... FOLLOW THIS OR BE NUKED!!!
IN CLOCKWORK:
WIPE CACHE
UNDER MOUNTS AND STORAGE, FORMAT SYSTEM
UNDER ADVANCED, WIPE DALVIK
You may want to consider doing the "coming from any other rom" instructions and see what that gets you.

Just wanted to send you a huge thanks for posting the videos. Yesterday I applied the powerboost fully and successfully and Wednesday morning I calibrated my battery using the "Battery Calibration" apk on the market. I have never had better performance on the standard battery. I also took the route trying out the "Data Switch" widget, turning off my data and using Wifi at home, and leaving data off when i'm not actively surfing the web due to Text/Phone Calls still coming through with data disabled it's perfect. I took my phone off the charger at 4AM today and it just hit 19 hours on this battery and i'm currently at 47% (attached image as proof). This is with very little usage granted but still i've never seen this kind of battery life. Also with moderate usage on Weds I made it 15 hours till full drain. All of your suggestions have worked out great for me, Loving th3oryrom and all the added features and now new founded battery life.

I have been seeing people having several issues as far as how to install different thing's regarding TH3ORY's Rom's and other add ons so I am going to attempt to help and solve all your issues with a step by step straight forward way to do each individual task that you may be attempting I can say I have tested all of these and they all work like a charm as long as you follow the directions to the "T". I have strayed away at times and Bricked My Bionic a Few Times and I assure you if you just STICK TO THESE INSTRUCTIONS you should be just fine. Also I have installed the Latest Rom and The Experience and by Doing it Correctly I have found Zero Glitches also I will be touching on How Exactly to use PowerBoost and Exactly How to Get the Most Out of It. So without further Bologna let's get into this.
__________________________________________________ ________________________________
Step#1
So lets start with just the Basics like "How To Boot The Motorola Droid Bionic into Recovery Menu". I realize Most of you may already know but for those who don't here is a Straight Forward Explaination.
Power Your Phone Off, or if Frozen Pull Battery Reinsert and if it Won't Boot into System Then Either Power Off or Pull out Battery Reinsert and then:
Hold Down Both the Volume Up and Volume Down Key
While Holding Them Down Hold Down the Power Button and Release the Power Button and the Recovery Menu should Pop Up.
This is useful if perhaps your phone freezes up and you can pull the Battery but Can't Boot into System.
Here's a Video as well showing how it is done.
[video=youtube;QVfeXppqH6Y]http://youtu.be/QVfeXppqH6Y[/video]
__________________________________________________ ________________________________
Step#2
This step we will be covering how to Restore the Bionic to Original Factory Specs in case you need to Start from Scratch.
Here is a list of some things you will need to Have first.
1. Moto Drivers v5.2.1 (install to PC 1st)
2. RSDLite 5.5 (install to PC 2nd)
FXZ (specific for the Bionic)
3. Free Copy of 7Zip
You can find these here:
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...-recover-brick-using-new-file-format-fxz.html
7-Zip
Once you have installed the Moto Drivers and RSD Lite onto your Computer simply follow the steps in the Video and this will not only Restore you to Factory Setup it will also Bring you Back from Brick Hell!! Also make sure your phone is at least charged to 50% and it DOESN"T Wipe External.
Here's the Viseo Tutorial:
