[SELFKANG ICS AOSP ROM] CM9/ICS for Droid 3

Ya I read that but it kinda confused me lol I have safe strap on my phone now. So all I do is download the rom to my sd card boot into recovery, enable safe mode, wipe data, install rom, and reboot into android. Is this correct?

Yup your right, just like how people went from Froyo to GB on the OG Droid you need to wipe before installing, its a bad idea to mix data from 2 different system versions. And if you use TiBu be careful when restoring apps and such, as you don't wanna restore GB system apps.

Here's a good guide written for the OG for using TiBu between different system versions but is still good for us. LINK

What will happen if you do?

I'm not really sure how to choose what apps to restore.

Often time the data is incompatible and causes force closes and reboots. But this is mainly for system app. Apps from the market are ok to restore.

So if I were to restore my apps on the ROM, I would choose, "restore all missing apps with data? "

Or "restore all system data? "

Well.. To be 100% sure you can always hit the search key to bring up the filter menu and select user apps, then batch, then restore all apps with data.. You dont want to restore system data. ​I NEVER restore system data even if flashing the same system/rom, it just keeps the install a lot cleaner.
 
OK I just flashed it. Anyway to get portrait to work?
Also, my Wifi is downloading this VERY slowly compared to usual.

Other than that it looks awesome.
