Is someone working on custom ROM's for this device? It would be nice to know if someone is.
Also a CM7-port would be great, is someone trying to do it? (as it's just a small modification to the Desire Z?)
Moved to general
There are a few people trying but I don't think any of us have been successful yet. Within a few weeks there should be something kicking around.

Yes when neopeek got his new X5 later this week there would definitely be something for us to test/play with, get ready
i know that recovery for x5 has worked successfully,so if i flash desire-z's rom(like cm7) to my x5,what will it happen?
wait for it.
Ideos x5 is still a new phone. I think in the near future will be a lot of modifications. Our toy has great potential. I do not advise ROM combined with other phones.

Your phone will spontaneously combust.
No but seriously, nothing will happen other than you will need to do a complete reflash (purple screen method) then another reflash with the CWM backup. I have tried this before. It will sit at the Huawei logo, you will start ddms, the screen will then flash black and the huawei logo, freaked me out the first time.

I was running originally DamageControl Sense 2.1 ROM w/Espresso. FANTASTIC ROM!!! Like a **** i went against the cardinal rule "if it aint broke dont fix it". I decided to go to DamageControl v2.0r2. Big mistake. The speed difference was noticeable (slower sadly enough with my experience) and then I encountered the wifi issues, the sync issues, the overheating, my battery going to **** as a result. This upset me more than anything else because after the fact in searching through the thread after it was up for awhile more and more of these issues were coming up but the thread's title and most of the info on it still read 100% WORKING OMG WTFBBQ ECT!. This should have been changed. Neither here nor there. SOOOOO.... I decide to go back to DamageControl Sense 2.1 ROM w/Espresso which is what i was using before i switched to DamageControl v2.0r2. AND NOW THE BOOT LOGO HANGS. So I decided lets try Darch's v4.2.2, AND AGAIN STUCK AT BOOT LOGO. So I decided to go to Fresh again, I was using fresh 2.0 and loved it at one point so I flash the rom and O WAIT ITS STUCK AT THE BOOT LOGO. I see DamagedTrev rom and I would love for this to work. Its what Damagev2.0r2 should be. (IMHO of Course) AND IT GETS STUCK ON THE BOOT LOGO.
Here is the list of actions I have taken:
Between each flash I wipe both data/cache
Not using Apps2SD
Latest Version of RA
and as a last resort
I UNROOTED AND STARTED FROM SCRATCH!! AND STILL NOTHING.
Sorry if its a rant. I am not calling out devs. I am not ungrateful. I am not a noob. (I am just covering the possible flames) I just want an answer. Its not a single release. Its a variety of them. Nobody really came out and said it but in searching (yes again covering the flames) i can only guess it might be the PRI issue, If so please confirm.
I know you say you unrooted, but try flashing a 1.5 ROM, such as Pancake. Also, try downloading the ROM again, as I think the very first time I tried flashing the new DC, I got the same problems as you. I downloaded again, and it flashed successfully.

If my TF is bricked during flashing what will i need to do?????

Well, a brick is a brick, and since you've voided your warranty, you sell it as is on eBay to recover costs (while stating condition/for parts) and get another.
Sorry for my poor English, hope you'll understand.
I flashed my HD2 a lot and never got any problem even there was time I flashed a Desire NAND rom (I mean it's for the REAL Desire, not a based-ROM for HD2). As long as you can boot into CWM recovery I don't think your device will die easily.
Yesterday I bought my TF, happy but not enough so I rooted and flashed the custom ROM. First I only had a 128MB microSD and I made a mistake: I flashed the patch (US->WW) before flashing ROM. It stucked at the Eee Pad screen. OMG, but I know I still haven't bricked my TF.
A TF ROM is ~200MB, not fit my 128MB SD so I had to run in the rain to my friend's house and borrowed his 4GB SD.
And now, I'm running the 3.1 Custom Rom, it's smooth, fast (althought not the as fast fast thunder flash ).
BUT, please THINK TWICE before you do the FLASHING. Know what you do, and don't blame anyone for that if you brick your device
honestly one would have to pretty hard to totally brick one of these.
depends on if you can get the prompt to get in to recovery. If you can't then you're boned, if you can, then you're not bricked.
another misuse of the word "bricked"

Atrix died help me .. to upgrade 2.3 my screen freezes Atrix did not respond so I decided to reposition the rsd lite 2.2 and is no longer there and I get caught "fail boot" and I can not enter rsd support
if you upgraded to the ota and decided to rsd lite / sbf flash back to 2.2 then you are hardbricked. try to see if you can boot into fastboot by turning the power on while holding volume down.
okay do not see it immediately turns off the phone menu
Sorry to say I and into this issue last night, you hard bricked your phone and to my knowledge and a few hours of trying last night are pardon my french but your screwed. I had to get another Atrix since mine wouldn't boot into a fast boot mode.

So far the only known way is to play a fool and call warranty telling a lovely story that u were updating ur phone (OTA of course) then something went wrong in the middle of the process then... BOOM... ask for a replacement.
PPL must read mainly the RED lines... there are tons of ppl bricking their phone trying to use RSD to downgrade... RSD MUST BE UNINSTALLED from your machine so you will not put ur phone in dungerous situations....
RSD should be never used... it is a tool from Motorola and regular users shoudnt mess with it.
That, my dear comrade, would be known as a Hard Brick.
A thoroughly baked brick.
i dont understand why the situation would even arise where so many people are wanting to downgrade. once upgraded to 2.3.4, wouldnt you want to stay there at all costs? i thought the update was a pretty good one from moto this time.
why are so many people going back to froyo in the first place?

I think so many people have become used to flashing back on 4.1.26/4.1.57/4.1.83 that they maybe think they need to go back and do a clean install or something. The OTA shouldn't work on a modded phone, but maybe some people just think it's normal. We have been spoiled with what the devs have given us previously, and lots of people don't read I guess. Too excited to upgrade and flash and update and flash.......
My Driod Pro is stuck in bootloader. It was not rooted. It was completely stock for that past 1.5 years. I had it in my pocket and went to use it and it was on the bootloader screen. I took it to Verizon and they couldn't do anything so ended up upgrading to iPhone 4S but I still want to get my Droid Pro working again...
Any thoughts? I saw other models with the bootloader issue but am not sure if those solutions would work for the Droid Pro.
(hopefully I won't lose all my stuff on the Droid Pro)
Thanks in advance!
Can you post or type what the bootloader screen says?
P.S. why did you go with the iphone over another Android
Bootloader
03.0A
Code Corrupt
Battery OK
OK to Program
Connect USB
Data Cable
That's what they screen says.
Went with an iPhone to just consolidate and family and friends have iPhones.
If it was a Samsung you'd use Odin and flash a new rom on...
any moto experts care to give us a clue what should be used for this situation?
I was able to revive the phone!
Used RSD Lite and SBF files. Ran it. Restarted phone by pulling battery. Got the green Androind icon with yeallow exclamation so did a full factory wipe and the phone started up perfectly.
Took a few more hours of research and finding the SBF files but it worked.
Thanks.

you must install droid 2 bootstrapper from market....
open the app click on bootstrap recovery, then reboot recovery...
You must have your phone rooted...
I was going to say your best bet would be to sbf it back to verizon default following my instructions here but ignoring the root part. Iphone? Really??

Thanks bud! There's thankfully a few mirrors out there for it post megaupload now.
I managed to get CyanogenMod9 on it but that was by rooting and then doing the .zip over the top.
But this wouldn't be as thourgher as using a .sbf would it? I mean, the kernel is still old right?
It seems to be running quite well but one problem. When trying to use the keyboard the screen goes blank... how's that image for that kind of thing you reckon?
For anyone else reading this, CM9 ICS seems to work ok apart from that keyboard problem, but I'm running an older kernel.
Can I achieve the same usability as a i9000 on Ice Cream Sandwich...?
So i have this u8800 which i got, It came with 2.3 But i tried to custom rom it and ****ed up everything, SO i downloaded this thing from Huawei's homepage called
(HUAWEI U8800 Android 2.3 for beta.This version improves1,missing call issue;2,MMS attachment issue. (V100R001C00B526G001))
And When i boot it the first logo of Huawei shows up, then the animation of Huawei, Then It restarts there, and do so over and over again. I got in a couple of times, but all of those times everything stoppes working, and i get a question to stop the prosess.
I'm not sure what i have done wrong, and what i can do with this.
I tried almost everything possible, any help ?
Thanks!
