CyanogenMod 7 beta is up to try out
Hi what are your guys opinion on these ROMs? I am rooted but I just dont see it worth it to get one of these ROMs, because I am waiting for the "overclocking" feature. Opinions?

Due to the locked bootloader, OverClocking is not in the foreseeable future.
So your saying its totally IMPOSSIBLE? I thought it would just make the devs/hackers work a little harder to find a way. But damn if thats true that sucksss
I followed the restore method exactly (as quoted below) and got tons of errors on the droid screen that many files and files.img were not able to be loaded and it completed...said "Done" tried to reboot and is still stuck in Red Motorola Boot logo and will not restore.
What else can I do? Is there anyway to get this Droid 3 restored.
Unbricking/SBFing the DROID3 (Or returning to stock without a Nandroid)
So, you did something you weren't supposed to do, and now you're left with a brick (or you forgot to make a Nandroid, and want to go back to stock).
Download this One Click SBF rar file by psouza4 from XDA, and this SBF file.
This SBF will completely wipe your device and install software version 5.6.890 on your phone.
To use:
Step 1) Make sure you have the most recent Moto drivers installed.
Step 2) Extract the zip to a folder on your computer.
Step 3) Extract all of the SBF contents into the "files" folder in the folder you unzipped.
Step 4) Power down your phone.
Step 5) While holding the Vol + and Vol - buttons, power on your phone.
Step 6) Select "AP Fastboot"
Step 7) Once your phone says it is connect, double click "CLICK HERE - Flash Verizon DROID 3 OTA 5.6.890 to phone.bat"
Step 6) Wait for your phone to reboot, then are back on the Stock OTA 5.6.890 update.
Step 7) Enjoy your DROID3 and try not the brick it again.
Are you plugging your USB cable directly into your machine, or into a hub? I have seen trouble with some machines where the USB hub simply doesn't know how to do the kinds of things that the root program wants to do. Bypass the hub and go straight to your machine.Don't know what I missing but even with the cable that came with the Droid 3, the root program does not want to detect the phone after selecting USB debugging and then charge only.
