Thanks:
FABOLOUS for all his help on the DX port!
Thanks to Teamdouche for publicly posting the CM source, which I compiled some of my apps from
Thanks to Superteam and Dustin Jorge as Liberty-Laucher was forked from and based on their work
Everyone else who helped make this ROM possible - you know who you are


Features:
- Most all apps were built from source.... rather that decompiled and hacked apps via APKmanager!!!!! To do this I took the CM7 source tree and reworked the framework to allow apps to properly find resources after they were compiled.
- The only apps left from Blur are the Dialer, Contacts and Camera
- AppWidgetPicker - built byboombuler
- Ads blocked via hosts file -thanks to delta_foxtrot2
- 1% battery increments built in (Icons made by thanks to Nitro)
- Themed Dialer, Contacts, Task Manager by me to integrate into the stock GB look and feel
- Reboot options (Reboot,Recovery and Screenshot)
- DSPManager included
- Custom Launcher2 with extra hotseats and speed tweaks (lightest fastest launcher you will ever use)
- Liberty Customizer (choose to add back blur apps)
- Lockscreen options (rotary, sliding tab and music controls)
- Start-up Tweaks (tool to allow you to manager your start-up tweaks)
- Root Browser (full edtion that normally comes with the pro version of the ROM toolbox - no need for Root explorer any-longer)
- Root Toolbox

Amazing and hard work for the Liberty Team as usual! Brilliant work guys! I absolutely love love LOVE this ROM! It's fast, smooth, and packed full of features. It makes the locked bootloader of my D2 bearable and that's saying something!!! Haha. I waiting for a non-locked bootloader Fascinate (obviously because Samsung is awesome lol) that I ordered on eBay to play around with in the mean time that I'm waiting on the Galaxy Nexus but this ROM does wonders for my Droid 2. Thank you so much guys! :biggrin:

I downloaded liberty 3 from the rom toolbox and now once im in recovery i have no idea where the zip file was downloaded to? ive been looking for it for like ten minutes, not in clockwork or rom toolbox all i can find in the rc liberty 3 from before?

I have a two issues with this rom. First, whenever I switch from 3g to wifi, the wifi and phone signal icons turn white. This lasts until something forces the screen to reset (starting a full screen app, turning the screen off then on, etc).

Second, the new liberty customizer is really unfunctional compared to the functionality of the last one. When I used the customizer in the past, literally the only thing I did was delete most of the apps you could modify (clock, car dock, file manager, email, music, news and weather, terminal editor, etc). Now the only option is to switch between blur and AOSP/CM7, which is really annoying since I don't want those things on my phone at all. If there's another way to delete these apks, please let me know, but right now this is making liberty 3 worse than LGB 0.9 IMO, even with the awesome 1% battery icon and amazing battery life.

Use the Root File Browser and go to system/apps and delete the apps you don't like

Boot Manager

I'm using Jakebites mods now, they work great. You can download them through the rom toolbox. If you downloaded Liberty through the rom toolbox, just install it through the rom toolbox, no need to manually reboot into cwm, but the file goes into a folder named "romtoolbox." The rom toolbox also has an app manager in it that you can use to uninstall apps.

Awesome job guys, I've been a huge Liberty fan all along. I was getting worried before about your guy's development for the Droid 2 coming to end, very pleased to see you still supporting us. You guys know what you're doing with ROMs in general, but especially for this phone. Some other ROMs may have some different features or more themes are maybe a little faster or whatever, but I've still to find one that even comes close to matching the all around functionality of Liberty. With Liberty, my phone just works, and works well. Battery life blows all the other ROMs out of the water, with the exception of Apex, and all the features I have tried to use work perfectly so far, much more than what can be said about other ROMs I've used. Now I don't mean to sound unappreciative of the developers of other ROMs, because I greatly appreciate anybody working on making stuff for us D2 users, especially since this phone is old news now; but I have always had the best user experience with Liberty.

Liberty 2.0.1 was the first ROM I used, moved on to Apex, Liquid, MIUI, CM7, Liberty GB v.07-.09, eventually went back to Liberty 2.0.1 eagerly awaiting a final release of Liberty GB. I liked the new features of GB ROMs, but none were bug free enough for me to feel like using all the time and I'm less of a flashaholic now so I just wanted something I can throw on my phone and forget about it, hence my return to the awesome 2.0.1. Now with your release of the stable Liberty GB, I have upgraded, and this ROM is awesome, I couldn't be happier. You guys do great work, keep it up. I have donated in the past and will continue to do so, you guys are brilliant developers and we all very much appreciate you taking the time to help make our phones as awesome as they can be.

And I just used Titanium Backup to freeze the apps I didn't want. It is less functional than the old Liberty Customizer, but you can find ways around the lack of a system app removal portion of the customizer.
