[kshen1]

Shouldnt have to wait long. Im just trying to get stock Messaging app to work correctly, and fix the contacts FC error, and Im golden! Flashing my butt off! Ive used the "SBF" file on the D3 about 7 times in the past 3 hours! Its CRAZY!

OMG can't wait...I hope this is AOSP

Edit: Wow I never read...-__-

I'm very excited to try out steel droid. I ran it for a bit on my D1 and loved it. I cant wait to see how this runs with the D3's hardware. Thanks a ton in advance Chevycam94!

Have some patience people

Rom is broken for two of my testers. Can't get it to boot. Should be easy fix though. Patience is a virtue!

Do you think you will release tonight still?

 

[cLoAk3d]

Are you able to put the tether hack in this?

 

[chevycam94]

Yes, I still want to release tonight. The upload is still going to take about an hour, hotel internet is never speedy. I think I have the Messaging issue fixed, and it seems to be booting now! I will test a few more key parts, write up a new OP, and post it!

Granted, its not a HUGE change into the world of Steel Droid, but it DOES work, run smooth, and have a LOT of bloated crap removed. I will work on theming parts of it when I am sure its stable enough. I will be working horrendous hours the next 3 days, so don't expect bug fixes to come instantly.

To answer your question cLoAk3d, I will NOT be able to include the radio patch in the release. http://www.droidforums.net/forum/members/63522.htmlEven if I could, I wouldn't, due to possible legal ramifications from Verizon. (Are there even any)

I'm new to the world of ROMS and androids in general. Is this likely to work on the xt860? While I know the phones are basically the same, I believe the radio hardware is different. I do remember reading somewhere that flashing something to do with radio will brick your phone beyond recovery.

Or is this just a stupid question

No, sorry. ROMs are built for specifics devices ):
