Okay the bootloader hasn't been cracked but don't let that get you down because the great Dev's have been working on it and now there may even be a workaround.
Bin4ry has managed to get his own kernel to load with custom image included, and although at this early stage the touchscreen and usb don't work this is definitely 1 big step closer to opening up our beloved x10's
Update - custom kernal has been loaded and touch screens working, confirming the workaround
I changed the title to better reflect what's been done

Wow, although I can't believe what I am reading if that is true...wow great news and thank you devs for your hard work

good luck to our saviours =)
"almost" is such a big thing... maybe there are some other problems coming, when TS and USB are fixed...
i hope i'm wrong
PS: don't forget bin4ry as VERY good dev i would say one of the best! he wrote that he wants to buy a newer phoneto play around but we won't forget him and his work

Wow this is awesome to hear!!!! I'm really excited to see how this unfolds
I believe that the bootloader is crashed out at some level, then the custom kernel is loaded, so it's more of a workaround but should offer the same end.
And definitely big thanks to All the Dev's that have kept working on solutions...

Hola
this is really good news to hear after almost of year of our dev team hacking away at this monster.
I do hope that Bin4ry will not get that new phone too soon
Moved as not android development
And way start this thread? If binr4y have news he can let us know? This thread is useless, and the information you provide us is already in the bootloader Dev thread.
Sorry don't mean to disrespect you in any way but this thread is for me spam..

Hey don't want to step on anyone's toes, but I Really think this is news for us x10 users. I felt that my post might inspire some people to hang on to there x10's. As for this being spam, no its not as the news is in the Dev's only forum while this is for general public, plus I don't think it's doing harm.
If Bin4ry has issues with including his breakthrough then I'm sure it will be deleted
PS, i Don't find it useless, not everyone reads the bootloader thread, so I think this may be very interesting

i'm happy with the news but it's kind of sad to read how just a little step after all these months make us all excited;when i just read last night that the htc thunderbolt bootloader was cracked after 2 or 4 days of its released.
i will support all the effort the dev and you ppl put into this but so disappointed wwith the way sony works,much like apple in my point of view.Is not bad coz they protect their products or intelectual whatever its call,but isn't the whole point of android os to be completly custumisible? if sony doesnt want us to do that or if in the near future the bootloadre is cracked,would they sue the dev?
why they don't create their own iphone then?
so disapointed,after using sony cellphones the last 6 yrs,this is the last for a while i think for me.but im so grateful for all the work and support of the dev and members.peace.
Im kinda on the fence with this post....but i have to lean towards the next "bootloader" post should only come when/if its cracked.

There's never been a phone with such a secure protection, and if this phone has an exploit then chances are new model's won't. This news though not complete is the closest the Dev's have come to finding a workable exploit. And what Bin4ry has done is show that we can have custom kernel's, this is a win in my eyes

I wouldn't worry about the Thunderbolt, I'm sure the devs over at the Atrix forums are having a harder time than us.
This sounds to good to be true.
It would be awesome!
Touchscreen working in the latest Kexec kit from bin4ry I guess thats closest to getting the bootloader hacked Though it seems temporary for now

Yeah, that's great.
Hopefully we'll have custom kernels with removed 32fps cap and oc soon.
Then my X10 would be perfect @ 2.1, 1.2GHz and super smooth, because of the removed cap

It is NOT hacking the bootloader it is just ignoring it... Like doing a side loading of the Kernel. Unfortunately if you reboot your phone the phone will boot as normal with Original SE files....
Never the less it is great news, if he can get a script to start the kexec tool in every reboot the bootloader will be totally ignored and we can load the custom kernels.

soo, please, I think this can break the bootloader of our atrix, but I don't have acknolegement to do that
I assume Atrix has different type of bootloader than SE X10a
May try after final exam

You can't just run their script and make it work that way, their exploit would have to be ported to the Atrix.
Hope this works, may I remind any dev that the is a huge bounty for this.

theres no such thing as atrix haters , theres moto haters , I been a moto fan since the startac , truth is motorola has spit in our face since the days of EZX phone where they would always find a way to circumvent gpl , I wish I could have an atrix , but as long as its locked , not gnna happen , fool me once shame on you , fool me twice shame on me , I am very tempted but I wont jump in just yet , I heard Tegra is much less secure then omap so theres your chance but it be a good month or 3 or 4 before anything happens to that bootloader , thinking otherwise woudl be greatly under estimating Motorola ...

there are Atrix haters as well as moto haters, i've debated and well as read comments from quite a few of them, but people that have the wrong attitude and give up so easily on the phone ain't helping at all(or people that never had the phone to begin with), but i understand some people have their needs or wants in a phone and the atrix may not be it for them, but don't bash it just because you may not like it, never even owned it but have negative comments about it, have a defective device or whatever, and no i'm not saying that YOU have done any of this, but i'm tired of seeing it.....
but back to what this topic is actually about, hopefully this topic catches the devs attention
sooo.. ignoring the differences in architecture between omap and tegra, were the two bootloaders secured in the same fashion?> signed? signed and locked? locked?

Even it takes 3 or 4 months it still gives us hope. I thought this whole signed bootloader mess was gonna be completely impossible! So I'm thrilled to hear this!
Nothing is impossible
Doesn't look like this is catching the eye of many people though, most likely from the 4/4 date.

Updated? The Tegra 3 chip is hardware not software. If you want Tegra 3 you will have to buy a brand new tablet with it built in.

Really? I somehow found this terribly entertaining.
You have to realize that perhaps this person doesn't research hardware and software the same way some others do. Maybe he/she thought Tegra3 was a software not hardware, or maybe they thought that the chipset might be replaceable hardware.

At least all the replies have been playful banter and not serious flaming. And the questions was answered in post #2, so it's not like OP didn't get a real response.
Oh, and if you're right and it is a child, then your profanity is not appreciated. THAT is what sucks on XDA. A little joking is just common social practice.
Maybe the person meant to ask if we will get a free trade in when the new acer tablet comes in instead of an ota update i mean did that odviously not criss anyones mind? But if that is the case then the answer to that in my opinion would be no cause were not paying for a contract so they got to get money somehow

That is a very legitimate question.I was considering asking myself.Op don't pay the fools no mind the t 3 update will be on sale at best buy prob before Xmas or shortly after the new year.Start saving your pennies. This upgrade will notbcome cheap.

Tegra 3 is the next iteration in the line of Tegra CPU/GPUs (code name Kal El) that are not only in most Android tabs, but quite alot of phones as well now.
You can read more about them here:
http://www.anandtech.com/show/5072/nvidias-tegra-3-launched-architecture-revealed
Is it true that Microsoft also wants their Windows 8 Operating System to function natively with Tegra 3 tablets?
If so does anybody here know if let's say I purchased a Tegra 3 tablet say next year with Ice Cream Sandwich the Operating System, could I then somehow flash with a ROM to Windows 8 ARM?
I'm new too, go easy still learning but willing to read links and anything else you advise.

Its actually quite likely that you will be able to get win 8 on even out Iconia.but of course there is always issues like drives and for the Iconia in its present state the issue of over coming the boot loader.Ms is known for having huge systems win 8 might require a boot partition much larger then the boot orR recovery partition of the Iconia.
So the short answer is Totally unknown until microcrap gets win 8 arm out.
Hope this helps.
