I love the cm7 and wish someone would make a cm7 rom for the D2.
Its pretty much impossible with the locked bootloader. Cm7 needs a custom kernel that the locked bootloader doesn't allow, so were stuck with stock.

well that sucks.
Try liberty, it's about as good as it gets at the moment. I think keyjar is also working on a gummyJar GB version, which should be a solid rom as well. There is a working UD port for D2, but it's still on RC2 and hasn't been updated in a while, though I ran it for a few weeks and it was pretty solid. Liberty GB is also in the works, though not publicly available atm. CM7 isn't really necessary for the D2, since most of what you would get can be had in other roms currently available, just via some different means.
any way to get the lockscreen gestures currently?
Cm7 DOES NOT need a custom rom. It will run better if it does but it's not required. But we don't have aosp Rome such as cm7 because the locked bootloader makes it hard to make things work

Alright I wanna clear this up.
Cyanogenmod is a custom rom. We can install those on our Droid 2/X devices with Koush's Bootstrap tool. That said, we cannot install a custom kernel. Thus, cm-kernel for Droid 2/X is probably not going to happen anytime soon. However, that is not to say that Cyanogenmod 7 requires a specific kernel. I see no reason why Cyanogenmod 7 could not run on the stock Motorola kernel.
Moving on, cvpcs is working on a Cyanogenmod port for Droid X (and thus also Droid 2). When the rom will be stable, however, is unclear. As far as I understand, it's not really working.

More importantly, this is the development section, not the request section. There is no request section for a good reason.

Ok, for those who aren't searching these days...
1 - Cyanogen won't come out officially with a D2 port until Moto unlocks the bootloader
2 - Cyanogen actually doesn't need a custom kernel to do what it does
2a - Go use Liberty..its effectively Cyanogen sans a 'custom kernel' and does all the same.
Me, I'm flashing back to stock for a while. Liberty 2.0 is causing me some headaches as of late and I can't download @#$ from the market it seems cause its like everything is fricken blocked now.

I thought Motorola stated that they would unlock the bootloader, but it was up to the carriers whether or not they would allow for it.
Jordan umts is the codename of the Defy... which is also locked.... and we are the 4th device in cyanogen 7 number of installs stats

Originally, yes, it was Motorola's policy to lock the bootloader, but they had announced recently that they would leave the bootloader unlocked, at least for phones on carriers that allowed it (so, I would at least guess that AT&T would be out of the picture, since they've even been controlling of the ability to sideload apps).
Working on it come help if you can:

So I've just got a droid x and I'm pretty confused here, as I'm used to other phones where it's just root->flash new rom. How does it exactly work for the droid x and what are its limitations? I know there's some kind of lock(s) or whatever on it but I'm pretty uneducated here, Like, why is there no CyanogenMod support, but there are other ROMs available? Is there a different process of flashing for the droidx apart from other phones? Thank you

The only difference is the locked Bootloader. That means (for now) that you can't have custom kernels, which Cyanogen usually has. The locked bootloader also means that you need a bootstrapper (available in market) in order to get clockwork to boot. Other than that rooting and flashing roms is pretty much standard.
Hey all,
my trusty froyo dx finally died on me, and today I received what looks to be a newer model dx. My questions are..
Are there any ways to tell what "gen" this new dx is? (subtle changes etc)
this device already came preloaded by Verizon with system 4.5.596, will i have any issues when I plan to root using z4?
Thanks a bunch
Yes, it won't work. If you want root, you have to SBF to froyo.

what makes it look like a "newer model".
It shouldn't be different? for the most part the droid X2 looks exactly like the droid X. so I don't think they would make changes to a phone that already has a successor
z4root will not work, you need to find a FULL sbf .340 stock and use RSDlite 4.8 and restore it to froyo. from there you can flash p3droid's rooted gb rom, which is essentially the same as the OTA
Anyone with luck flashing a Milestone X w/ a custom ROM?
Running Rooted 2.3.5 w/bloatware removed (but backed up) along w/ DROID X Bootstrapper.
Have made my first full system backup using this tool.
If complete ROMS could not be used, what components would I need to modify, replace, ... exchange to get it to work on C-Spire (say, Verizon).
I've heard that there are some ROMS that don't mess with the baseband and other communications settings, files, frequencies, protocol, etc... What are these type called if they exist? Where can I find them? Are these a safer alternative to full ROMS?

I would recommend staying off custom roms for the Milestone X until a working sbf for us makes an appearance. Myself and ngholson both had issues where we got stuck in a bootloop and the sbf just output more errors until a replacement device was needed.

agreed. [10chars...............
another thing to consider, since we cannot sbf at this time, is that the bootstrapper will break your ability to install any future ota updates. it modifies the logwrapper and makes a copy called logwrapper.bin, however, uninstalling the bootstrapper and restoring the logwrapper file does not correct the problem. best i can tell the only answer that i can find when this happens is to sbf back to stock... well you see where this is going.... currently we cannot do this, so unless you never want the ota upgrades i do not recommend installing the bootstrapper on cspire's milestone x.
oh well nevermind went back and re-read your post, you already have the bootstrapper installed. (at least you did it after ota)
here is a link to the post that has the sbf that is reported to work with cell south (cspire) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117885
maybe someone else can try it again and report back.

I can confirm that the old sbf it does not work after ota update. I had to get a new phone. I have rooted, but I am not installing a bootstrapper until a working sbf is available. Hopefully that will happen soon.
I am on C spire out of Byram, MS and can in fact confirm that "Droid X Bootstrapper" from the market indeed works like a charm on the Milestone X with stock versions 2.2.2 and 2.3.5.
I use "Super One Click" to root, then the same prog to "Allow non market apps" then buy "Droid X Bootstrapper" from market, run it. Reboot while holding camera button and power button,,,,voila

I dunno,,,, it worked for me twice. I tried to update cwm from the app using the flash for droid x and it messed up my recovery. So i updated to the latest ota from Cspire via the stock android recovery by naming the ota file to update.zip and running it like that.
I'm running CM7 nightlies for the droid x on the Milestone x....you might have to remove the line of code in the update file that asked for Kernel assert,,,,I can't remember, but seems like it kept giving me an error that says, "assert failed: run_program("/tmp/check_kernel") but after that all was fine.

Yea, the Milestone is a little more finicky than the Hero, and with Motorola's locked bootloaders, one could get in a fix..
I've ran the past 3 nightlies and currently on cm_shadow_full-154.zip.
I tell ya, they all have some kind of bug somewhere. It all depends on what you want to put up with. Me, personally, I like the stock ota 2.3.5 from Cspire. It works. Plain and simple. Now, I would like some of the CM7 options and spare parts.

Open the updater-script with notepad (new to this) and found no mention of kernel assert. Almost there...a bit more help would get me in.
It should be the top 3 lines, if I remember correctly.... I checked it out on my phone to make sure but,,,, duh, I already removed it (face palm).
It's in there somewhere.
Run install again and right down all the errors... Then try to find them in the script file.
I'm new to this also (as far as motorola stuff) too. And I take risks that most people wouldn't..... Hell, if I mess something up bad enough , just sbf back.
I'll try to help you more when I get off work... Maybe send you my roms that have already been fixed.
Make sure to turn off script and signature asserts off in cwm... Sometimes that helps.

the ota 2.3.5 is actually a good CLEAN rom, i do like the fact that it is so clean, just need a few tweaks as you said from the cm7 build, status bar tweaks ect..
may build up one.
built a rom for a tablet we are selling here, BIG learning curve but the locked boot-loader throws a real curve ball

Hey all:
So I'm really interested in changing my rom, but everywhere I turn I'm told I can't do so because the bootloader is locked on the droid x. I had always been under the impression it was the same for the milestone x since they're both motorola, and basically the same phone except the milestone is debranded and used on smaller cdma networks, rather than verizon... However, as I scour the web in search of enlightenment, I find a discussion about the bootloader, where it was implied that it was verizon, not motorola, who wanted the bootloader locked and that on the non-droid (non-verizon) x's this isn't an issue. Can anyone verify that the bootloader is indeed unlocked on the milestone x, our give me a "safe" way to do so? And if so, what roms would work?
Thanks
I haven't seen anything that says that the bootloader is unlocked on the Milestone X. Verizon may not want an open bootloader but I doubt the smaller carriers do either. At least mine wouldn't.

Hey, another kentucky boy. I'm assuming that means you're on app wireless, which means we should have pretty much the exact same phones. Did you take the 2.3.5 update around the end of last year? Have you tried any custom roms? found any that work on the milestone?
Yeah, I'm with Appalachian! Wireless. I played around with some custom ROMs before the Gingerbread update, but I haven't risked it since. I may give it another go once I'm closer to my contract being up. Now that would probably change if I could get a good SBF image to fall back to if I break something.

Yeah its pretty crappy that Appalachian has never released an sbf.. They're sort of weird about stuff like that... But I saw somewhere on the interweb something about a "generic north american milestone x sbf". Our phones don't seen to have any sort of model customization for app wireless, so maybe that would work?... I hear that the ics gummy rom works on the milestone x, but I haven't tried it yet. I'm new to all this hacking and modding stuff.. I finally have it rooted and found this ics launcher in the market called holo launcher that works pretty well, and I've been experimenting with some metamorph themes (got the r2d2 lock screen...oohh yeahhh...lol), so I don't know if I'll risk it. Maybe when my contact ends in november and I'm during outside the store at 4 in the morning waiting in line for the black friday sale, I'll cave and give it a shot... Lol

After successfully flashing my Milestone X with CyanogenMod I noticed my Google Market was not included. I found it and renamed to update... and placed it on my sdcard. No go, I later tried to replace the bootloader and bricked my X. They gave me another one and now I have Gingerbread. From what I read in the wiki I would have to do all suggested backup apn stuff and flash back to froyo or previous version.
The problem I had when I flashed the Shadow ROM, the kernel was not updated, so I decided there was no real benefit to all this and it might be easier to just keep the latest carrier update and install a new theme.
Good luck,

Hey! Sorry for the long delay. To give you an update, I WAS able to flash vortex RC1 without a problem. However, I wasn't crazy about the design and I couldn't get the Wi-Fi to work even with the Wi-Fi lib fix, so so I was forced to Nandroid back to stock. However, I tried vortex reloaded and not only did I like the design better, but the Wi-Fi worked!! I used it for a while, then did a Nandroid and downloaded and flashed liberty 3 v2, again without a hitch. I can't decide which I like better, so I just go back and forth between the two. I'm so indecisive... lol... but if you're you're interested, you can download liberty and RC1 from the same place. Just Google "blur-based roms on .621/.604" and click the top result, which should be rootzwiki. You can also find an apex rom there. As for vortex reloaded, you'll have to do a little more digging, but it shouldn't be hard to find...
As for choosing a rom, it's all personal preference. But the one thing I can NOT STRESS ENOUGH is that, when using a milestone x, the rom needs to be modified for the .621/.604 hack. As for 2nd-init roms, I have no idea because I've never looked into them. Hope this helps!!
2nd init roms can be used on .621/.604.
