Honestly, I'm confused...it's more complicated then my old droid 1

Stock based ROMs don't have a mount script built in.  You'll need to choose the "mount system" option in SafeStrap, after doing your wipes and prior to flashing.

To answer your question, you should be able to flash this on a locked BL, with SafeStrap.

 

rarely is RikRong wrong (despite his name and being a Cardinals' fan).

 

however, I'm fairly certain the file posted in the OP is flashable via TWRP/CWM only - meaning that the bootloader must be unlocked.  I think it requires a slightly different file to install via SS vs. TWRP/CWM.

 

so while this ROM maybe installable via SS, you may need the dev to create a separate file to do that.

 

but I could be wrong....

Hey, a Cards fan can never be wrong. ;)

However, you may be right. I thought I remember reading that people have flashed this with SS, but it may have been the previous version.

 do you flash via RSD lite like the droid 1 or do you copy the zip file to the external SD card?

Copy to external SD.  Heck, on my OG Droid, I still copy to the SD and just change the name to get it to flash.

I did exactly as the OP said. In that order and this ROM says Failed to install. What's up? :( I'm on a locked 98.18.78 RAZR M running Safestrap

I have not changed anything in terms of the method for flashing this rom since my days on safestrap, so all should be working in safestrap. What slot are you installing to?

Did you reboot recovery and then mount system? Also, some of ROMs will report a fail on install, but if you reboot, the install actually did work. IIRC, Eclipse was like this.

Yea I rebooted and then mounted again. When I mount do I check the boxes until they read unmount next to them and click the Mount USB Storage? If so then yes I did that. I'll try it again and reboot to see if it still works.

Just mount system, and leave it checked.

I am having some serious data and wifi drop issues with this rom, has anyone else had this problem? Suggestions? I am locked on stock kernel.

This was actually one of the best roms I had used as far as signal strength is concerned. Are you on the 78p baseband? It couldn't hurt to try a different kernel, either.

He won't be able to change the kernel, if his bootloader is locked.  However, when I did run this, my bootloader was unlocked, but I didn't have issues with dropping data or WiFi.  You might want to try re-flashing.

Did you mount everything before flashing? What baseband are you running?

Thought I mounted everything, not sure what baseband. How do I find out?

Ok...got the 3g/4g to work, but now I cannot send group message...well I can but any text i put in the group message or pictures even, won't send. And to add to that, I get individual texts from people I send group messages to instead of receiving them in group messages. It works on stock ROM, but not in deadpool...

 

...any fix to this?
