There are various people working on it in different forums outside of xda. There is supposedly leaked source code out in the wild and there is a person working on some kind of non-HTC gold card type of exploit. Google "Root Motorola Cliq" and you'll see the various threads around covering this. Unfortunately there is no dedicated site yet like the Droid has to pool information to form a collective brain trust for this project . Hopefully there will be something for Cliq owners with in the next couple of weeks. Maybe sooner if that source code pans out. (crossing fingers)
factory restore image (dreamimg.nbh) equivilent?
I read a post from a guy (here I think) that stated he had a "factrory image" of some sort, the extension was nothing I had seen before, but it sounds to be the same type of file that HTC has, that when booted to recovery the phone will apply the image automaticly, which is how the dream gets downgraded.
I would think that if source is available and the image is too the only thing I could see stopping root would be a keyset other than the "real" one.
just like the g1 they may have a "dev keyset" that we can use on our fones and to sign updates which also blocks the "normal" updates out.
I have been searching daily for any info on rooting the morrison/cliq/dext, and haven't found much other than a couple forum posts and tweets. There are a few cliq fourms but none seem to have anything but "is root available", "when will it be rooted", "how do I gturn the phone on" type posts.

If he said he was taking donations for one, I'd help out . T-Mo has them at 50$ off right now too. But if he had a button in his sig that said "Cliq Donations" i'd log into PayPal right now =). The more advanced dev's that have them, the better.

same here. someone should let cy know he gots 2 willing. i got 20 on it. i dont even have a cliq and probably wont get one but if he wants one i am willing to help. he is way way to important to my daily use for me to not give what i can.

Id be willing to donate to Cyanogen. The real question however, is whether or not he'd be interested. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe parts of blur are not open source.... if that's the case, then cyanogen may not be interested.
In any such case, this phone would be awesome with some optimized firmware on it. Heck, id go for a straight port of CM 4.2.5.
willing to donate
Hi all,
I'm not interested in rooting itself but in to use my mobile as a modem and be able to enjoy a lot of unnofficial updates, the same way I did with my old HTC Polaris...
I'm not a developer, but I'm willing to donate and support testing and getting logs...
I already bookmarked this thread to follow it up.
REgards,
JM
Forgot to clarify... I still have my Polaris, but I'm about to get my Moto Cliq this weekend or early next monday, but I have already played with the one my wife got last week...
I will buy Cyanogen a CLIQ if anyone can reach him and verify that he's interested.

Hey, I'm just posting this as a little thanks to the VillainROM developers. More specified, Ninpo. One of the developers.
As many others, my Hero got bricked on the 2.1 update. Clueless was I were, I did not know anything of what I should do. Not very unlike other people on this forum. There has been som threads about this very problem.
Anyways, it was quite late at night. I personally felt I had tried everything possible, and were ready to send my phone in for service the day after. But that would cost me money, aswell as being phoneless for days. So I figured.. I'd give the VillainROM site a visit. To see if updating to their ROM could solve my issue. But as I said, I was clueless. And did not manage to do this on my own.
So I visited their mIRC channel, and told them what had happened to my phone. Luckily, Ninpo was in the channel. He literally helped me for 4,5 hours straight. And we managed to solve the issue at last.
Therefore I'm just posting this post to let you guys know that I'm quite amazed with how helpful the VillainROM developer team are. Creds to them. Really. I also tried the new VR v.12, and I must admit.. I like it better than the original rom. Not only because it does not brick my phone randomly while updating, but also because it runs faster, less unnecessary features.. and the general experience is basicly better.
So I just wanted to give them my thanks. Keep it up, really great with someone knowing what they are talking about helping me out.
--
Thought i'd add what we did to solve my problem. So people with the same issue can try that too. I were planning on quoting the post, but I'm not allowed to post out-side links (and the post contains a download link). So I'm just going to link to the post instead.
Edit: Werent allowed to add links. I'll add the link once im permitted to link.
Today was my first day trying VillainROM (12.0.0). Having just come from Modaco r5, I can say this ROM is noticably faster. Kudos to the VillainROM devs for delivering a great ROM.
Yes, this guys are FANTASTIC!!! With Villainrom 12 I can use my phone at his top with so many cool APP....
From myself as well
THANK YOU VILLAINROM TEAM!!!!!
Yeah villain team rocks to bad I'm cheap otherwise I would have donated

Glad you all enjoyed the VR experience. We are always happy to help.
And to the OP to post a link you have to have had 10 posts, or just post a broken link and let people make it themselves i.e. put a few spaces in e.g "ww w.villain rom.co.uk (remove the spaces)"
Hey everybody,
Over the past couple of days ive spent a couple of hours designing my site properly, Its finally complete.
Any feedback is much appreciated, and comments, bad or good are welcomed!
Please check it out...
I will be updating more regularly from now on (Not many updates over last few days since now a huge amount of progress has been made!!!)
I am going to bring back the 'best build' section asap (had a number of requests via email) I'm just contemplating where about to put it
Enjoy,
Rob

Your site looks good, if you are able to keep up with the updates I'll be all over it!
Looks good....

Wow, great site! Really helps to find everything in one spot, and with a really nice layout, updates and info on the builds.
Thanks!
Good job ! I think your site is very simple and straight to the point. I just hope you can keep it updated with the latest news !
I am now the new owner of this website and its for sale!
I offer $10
wtf is going on here???
lmfao
umm...wth is this? cant advertise other sites from xda lol, I guess I am the only one to find this distasteful lol?
First and final warning for spamming the boards here at xda.
closed and moved to general along with the two other threads he's opened on his site.
I find myself on this site all day long to see if there are any new updates or what is new. The only thing I do not like is I can not do anything at work since I am not an administrator on my pc. So all of it has to wait until I get home.

Glad you like it here. We have been rather... lively lately, haven't we. Not sure what the deal is with the Epic section, but there was never anything but solidarity over in the Raphael forums (where I lurked for over a year)!
I find myself checking on here all day as well. Haha. It's addicting. (and I haven't even gotten my phone yet) But I do enjoy these forums better than Android Central. It just doesn't seem as active. Especially in the Epic section.
I currently have a pre and I really enjoyed the PreCentral forums. I was hoping to find the Android Central just as awesome. But I'm glad I came across this one.

I have gotten multiple requests from a few devs in the past week, including myn to delete links to their mirrors posted by users. Today, I had to delete a full thread about these. Stop posting links to said nighties. Devs will release the rom when it is ready to be called "beta". The reason they have not opened a new thread about this is because some people perceive the threads like this as "feelers" or with the sole purpose to draw donations, which is by no means the intention of the devs.
This is a final warning about this.
Right on man the devs work there ass off and are always working on something new and fixing problems sucks when people on here jack there links and post them all over here and then take credit for it Happy you did something about it.
It is crap that people feel the need to do things like that. Personally, I don't mess with "nightlies" unless it says AOSP. Stoked about Myn's next release though.
I agree 100%. Glad to see swift action from the XDA Admins / Mods.
Question - Should all links of the new ROMs be off limits, including changelogs and such? For instance, I noticed a link in the Warm 2.2 thread for the changelog for Myn's Synergy ROM.

Changelogs for this rom can also be found in infectedrom as well afaik. If the link to the changelog has any way to link back to a mirror or a link to obtain the rom, then I would say it should be off limits. Please link me to the post in question if you can (myn's 2.2 thread is only a gazillion pages long and I don't have all eternity to look for it )
ehh, I think the issues is people don't understand that these rom's are for the experienced user. The Synergy is not released publicly yet because their is a risk some idiot will bork, brick, ruin their phone. also if you want it so badly go to the irc channel that's your best bet for getting the latest and most proper version some user's could think they're fixing something and share it on the forum and next thing you know 20+ dead device's
/end input and rant.

great point man.
Although I agree with their general intentions, some developers have not been acknowledging or giving access to the nightly builds even for those who have donated. It's been almost a week since I donated to a developer and have yet to even get an acknowledgement, let alone access to any nighties, and I've seen posts from others who are in the same situation. I know donating does not automatically grant access to the nighties, but I think the developers should also be more forthcoming to those who donated to them.

My point exactly. You don't donate to a dev and get automatic access to nighties. You donate because you feel like giving someone something for their hard work and should expect nothing in return. If the dev so happens to grant access in lieu of donations so be it, all the better for you. However, if a dev did post something along the lines of "donators will receive access to nightly builds and early releases", then that is where we would have to step in, as that is considered selling "money for a good or service". Sorry but if you donated, you donated and that is the end of it.
is it ok if i give someone who i know has access to like the myn links, the V links?? cuz right now myns links are broken, but V's arent....... if not, i will stop.... just plz dont ban me

I think we need more moderator here in the EVO 4G Forum area, because every single Development thread, you can only see people *****ing about the same thing that is already posted, PEOPLE here Don't READ even when your are installing something in your phone that can Break it. ( If you go to a Leak ROM thread, it is clear that you cannot install thoose type of ROMs, and people always are asking that they are having issues installing the ROM, LOL)
If you go to General you can see like 10 thread of the Same Thing, In the Evo 3d Area you can see like 8 topics of Release date, 4 of Root, etc, etc.
My opinion is that we need more moderators in the Forum, The XDA community everyday is becoming bigger, so you need to take that in mind.

There are 3 moderators assigned here, plus I am always around as well as other Senior Mods. This place has become somewhat chaotic as of lately, but we will control it to the best of our abilities.
Google is your best friend. That's all I gotta say. *Hint*
Ya alot of flame wars going on. Sad people were stealin links and posting the devs hard work and claming it theres. Glad the ADMIN stopped it.
If you've made it a rule to close threads involving the posting of links to nightlies at least somewhere on the site there could be link to the rom!
There is a link posted. Goto the Incredible section and get it there.
