What is your favorite CDMA ICS ROM for the RAZR and why? Post a link please!

I like Eclipse. It's just a ROM I've used since my X2 days. I've gone to so many different ROMs, but I always come back to Eclipse. Nitro (Scott) is really good at what he does. Updates come pretty quick when there are issues. Once the release is stabilized, a new version might not come out for months, but that is a sign of how stable the ROMs are. Also, HDMI still works with it. I haven't tested Webtop as I didn't have a dock. I just received my RAZR dock, so I'll have to try out Webtop tonight and see how it works, unless someone else can attest that it works.
You can get Eclipse for ICS here: http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/topic/2832-rom-eclipse-razr-ics-v11-62712/
The current stable release is v1.1. There is a 1.2 release candidate out there and you can get it here: http://t.co/kKlxqLPf

Does the eclipse rom allow themes? Like cm9/aokp themes from the market?

Can I not use clockworkmod instead of safestrap?

Most ROMs require Safe Strap on this phone.
I love Full Throttle AOKP on here. Does all I want and need.

Like the title says...
What is the most stable & lag free ROM out there for X2? I'm on Eclipse 2.1 & this wifi problem is killing me softly. I was on CM7 but I kept getting problems with it.
If you have a ROM w/ a certain version of it that you'll suggest, I'm all ears.
In what problem did u have with cm7? If ur willing to go back I'm sure we can help solve them, unless u mean HDMI.
Sent from my MB870 using Xparent Cyan Tapatalk 2
im looking into romming too and was wondering the same thing. I want a rom that is glitch free.
I don't really have any problems with CM7 other than wifi can take a while to connect...you may have to toggle it off and back on to get it to connect. I have not recently had any issues with it staying connected. I can't think of any other issues I've had. My wife has a DX2 stock and I used it for about 5 minutes today....that's enough to drive me crazy
Quick Note....Search bar. This topic has been raised twice in the past month.
But while I'm here I might as well put into it... I've been on CM7, MIUI, Molten and Eclipse and Eclipse is hands down the best. I don't know that bugs actually exist on this rom. Miui has seriously video issues, Molten isn't up to snuff over all, Cm7 is solid but the wifi connection is what turned me away, it is annoying as he'll even with the wifi fix scripts. Eclipse doesn't have a single on of these problems. Not one.

I'm on eclipse 2.1 now & my wifi keeps dropping & re-connecting from time to time. It's annoying. I heard the earlier versions of eclipse are far more complete than 2.1

When I was on CM7, when I reboot it gets stuck at the boot screen at times. Followed all directions to the letter & i had a wifi problem also like some ppl had. that's what drove me away
Are you sure you are on the correct android build? Cm7 is fairly stable but it foes have its share of issues, none major by any means though. I would say eclipse is the most stable for the x2, and that's comming from a guy who runs cm7. Double check that you are on 2.3.5 for eclipse and not 2.3.4.

I finally dumped cm7 after three months of the wifi disconnects. Aside from that it's my favorite. I'm running eclipse 2.1 and it is solid, zero wifi problems sooooo happy about that. I do miss some of the cm7 features (long press pull down widget, swipe away notifies, lock screen options, overall customization). So far I'm sticking with eclipse 2.1.

Those are all definite benefits of cm7 especially the lockscreen for me...that was a huge thing that I liked about cm7. I do agree though that eclipse 2.1 is the most stable overall...do wish it was completely aosp but it is what it is I suppose huh

Kinda makes you wonder why the /418 ud has the same kernel as /413 & not the popular /412?
Also my Mx2 port won't work w/o /413.
edit This may have come about cuz the /412 has kernel 00007 & /413 has 00008.
Eclipse 1.3 was very stable in every way. Does not have all the goodies in 2.1 but is very stable. Cm7 is good also with a little massaging lol

Yes, I've checked my version it says 2.3.7
CadenH is referring to your kernel. It is from a particular blur rom & unalterable.
So for example if the rom wants you on 234 leak . Your kernel will be ...00005... & the rom replaces all but that & other locked partitions.
Has anyone heard/know of a fix for the LP icon changing in the MIUI ROM, I would say by far that the MIUI ROM has the most features and by far is the sexiest and one of the better ROM's out there. I am brand new to Android and have been in the iPhone Modding world for too long.
Once I get these files systems figured out and learn a little bit more, Ill be building and tweaking ROMs for the DX2

well my kernel says 2.6.32.9-00007
Here is my list of 235 kernels but I have not been on 412 in a long time & I thought (edit 00007 is 412) was 412. Could some step in who is on 412 & confirm?

SORRY for my confusion but, KK did you want to be on 412?

From what I'm seeing from the link you've post. I need to be on the one with the working wifi. I don't know how I get on 00007, I followed every direction. I'm confused now.
Does anybody know if the install goes correctly, sorry if it's already been asked. I just don't want to brick my phone.

I didn't want to bump this thread, but I really want an answer. Sooo, anybody know?
For me on the .173 software it failed but did not brick my phone. But until the bootloader is unlocked/bypassed the razr can not run an aosp rom. + juice defender ultimate ran horribly for me, ive used it on many other phones that it worked wonderful, the razr it did not.

So that means that since my Razr isn't running an AOSP based ROM that it's highly unlikely that even on .181 it will be able to run, unlikely but not impossible?
Never mind, I put on my big boy pants and checked it for myself. It worked fine. And I love the new battery saving features.

Black Widow is a AOSP Rom, isn't it? And juicedefender runs very well on my razr for three months now.

A fully aosp rom includes the kernel, and since we cant boot custom kernels no rom for our phone can be built solely from the android open source project. I might have to give jd another try, do you guys still get the lag when it initiates 4g?

AOSP works for 65.1.40 2.3.6 asia stock rom.

What do you mean lag? I haven't botched anything service damaging like that. But I just set up jd and leave it.

But now we can boot custom kernels using kexec, right? Ok, second core doesn't work but a good ICS custom ROM with a good kernel running on single core beats a stock ROM which is running on dual core. So I think it would be nice if a custom kernel could be built.

It's been a while since I've tried jd, the last time I did I had horrible lag when I turned on the screen to data connectivity initiating. The dev might have updated since then.

Kexec is close, I can't use it on my DROID RAZR yet, but very promising. I'd guess most devs will wait for the official update to ics's source drop by moto, giving how hard it is to find/build drivers for the h/w.

Ok guys, I personally have a S3 and love it, got a custom ICS rom on it (cleanrom 2.1). And my mom just got a Razr Droid, Im thinking about putting a new rom on it, something stable yet not a clusterfck /easy to learn for her. Tweaks with battery life in mind, performance, and full functional (like picture text working etc) Any suggestions? I would also want to put google now on there etc. I guess I have some reading up to do on this forum.
Eclipse ICS. I recommend this to everyone If you're not familiar, it's completely AOSP with a blacked-out look. Really nice. All features working. Also includes improved battery (in my experience), notification drawer toggles, etc, with some small tweaks here and there. Fairly minimal and easy to use.

Thanks, i just installed eclipse 1.3 (his newest one, he hasnt posted it here yet), than google now, Up and running smoothly. Now I had installed safestrap, can i disable that boot up option?
There's an Eclipse ICS 1.3? Could I trouble you for the link? I'm only on 1.2; I looked but could not find a newer version, so that'd be much appreciated l As for Google Now, glad to hear you got that working! I forgot to mention it earlier, but some have reported battery drain from it, so look out for that...
And I don't believe you can change the boot up screen, unfortunately :/ But I personally never found it to be much trouble. Just make sure your Mom knows not to hit the menu key and launch recovery xD
EDIT: Never mind, I found the Eclipse update! ...I was excited enough to get out of bed at 3:30 and turn my laptop on
EDIT #2: Annnd then I realize that I am running a GSM device and therefore need to GSM patch it Which I unfortunately don't think is possible on the latest version *sigh* Ah well, back to bed...

Thanks for that, that's good to hear. I wasn't sure it would work, as the patch was labelled Eclipse ICS 1.2 in the thread. Do I have to re patch this then or could I flash this ROM right over the old version (doubt it... Just wondering)?

Hi all,
Call me stupid and/or lazy. I am looking for ROMS that are using the 98.72.16.x912 without having to change the kernel. Basically Flash and go. I have SafeStrap v 3.11 installed and want to see the ROMS that are 'current' or greater (4.2.2).
I am not looking for a wait or upgrade the kernel and then update the ROM... a out of the box ROM.
What is out there....Sounds like a SciFi ROM.
You can try cm10.1 its using a kexec kerneln, so it doesnt matter which kerbel you are on...

Try Aviator rom. It is easy on the battery and a really easy rom to download and install. Not much is made of this rom but it is a really nice one. One of my favorites.
http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/forum/156-droid-razr-roms-for-the-jelly-bean-kernel-xt912/
yes, aviator is good and also I recommend eclipse even though is with .8 kernel. use matt utility to get this kernel
Its been a long while since a new rom came out for Razr , we are getting bored with the same old one.
What're you talking about? The DROID RAZR is officially supported on CM10.1, AOKP, and LiquidSmooth. There's also AvatarRom and PACman. That's just AOSP-based roms. There's a handful of awesome stock-based roms floating around too (such as Rage, Aviator, etc). You just need to look a bit harder
What are the main differences between "stock based" and "aosp based" roms. I'm currently running rage 2.4 with the apex launcher and absolutely love it but it's a stock based. Was wondering if it's worth the trouble to try something aosp based.

yes it is definitely worth going AOSP. Don't really know why it'd be more trouble than doing a stockbased custom ROM though.
I'd definitely recommend CM10.1. I've been loving cyanogenMOD since the early days of the Droid2 lololol
Pretty sure stock based roms tend to be more stable whereas an aosp bases ROM might have a thing or two broken like cameras and what not. Just my typical experience.
