Used Droid 2 for Developer (Maybe) - Droid 2 General

Hi!
I would post the in the developer section, but XDA won't let me. I have a used Droid 2 that is in generally good condition except for part of the touch screen that doesn't work. I was wondering if there was a developer working on getting ICS running on the Droid 2 / Droid X that needs a phone to work with. If so, I might be able to send it.

I've been developing ics for the d2 for a while now. A separate d2 for development would be great.

Sense UI in Motorola Droid?

Does anyone know if Sense UI has been ported over to the MOTO Droid, in working order (able to make and receive calls, wifi and 3g working all that good stuff)? Just wondering if this was done successfully, and if it has been done, what is the process to implement this on my Droid?

Kubuntu mobile

http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu-mobile/ports/releases/10.10/beta/
has anyone messed with this. will it work or does it have to change the kernel
same ask from me too
From the kubuntu wiki it seems that this is still in very early development. Looks like the n800 is the only device supported. So long story short, not right now.

Yes, it's in very early Dev. I'm one of the Kubuntu guys helping out on the project and a few months ago it was ported to the Motorola Milestone. I am working on getting it put on my Droid 1 and once I have it I will post a tutorial on how to do it.
Stay tuned and I'll update when I have it working.

How about the droid 2? I'm surprised there isn't any more information about this.

JB for Droid X?

Hello guys.
I saw on the front page that someone had ported Jellybean to the X2. My question is, do you think some talented developer could port JB to the original X? JB on the X would be amazing and it doesn't seem that hard to do considering its already on the X2! I know they have different CPUs and GPUs, but would it be that hard to do?
Thanks,
wws12

C'mon guys, this would be awesome!
xx13thangelxx commented about this on RootzWiki. He said he owns both devices, and a simple port wouldn't work. Hardware is way different. DX is single core omap, while DX2 is dual tegra2, a simple port just won't work. If someone were to get it up and running on a Droid 2, which has the same hardware basically as the DX, a port would be feasible.
Ah but they have! It's for the Milestone 2 which is the GSM version of the D2.

Most new development and a lot of old development has ceased on the Droid X as many devs have moved on to bigger and better things (mostly shinier toys). Unfortunately I don't think our kernel can support a lot of the functions and to be honest, even if we came up with a 2nd Init JB for our DX, it would be even worse on battery life than the various ICS builds due to the fact that we cannot run custom kernels and the like to actually empower the hardware we have.
As far as JB goes, there's not a lot of real difference between it and ICS except a few different APIs and a bit of polishing as far as I'm aware, but again, we can't see the true benefit of these changes without a proper kernel and modules due to the locked down bootloaders forced upon us.
Unfortunately I'll also agree that most devs have moved on to other projects/devices. It's the nature of having to deal with a locked device and the fact that it's now been over 2 years since the DX was released. As a former DX owner, the SGS3 came out right as my contract was up so it made since to go to the next awesome thing.
I think p3droid and crew went to the bionic pretty early after it came out. I haven't really kept up with that bunch since they stopped releasing things for the DX. Also, cvcps is now the maintainer for the Cm10 builds of the SGS3.
When there was the big to do over the using of kexec to get around the kernel limitations I checked to see if someone would pick that up on the DX. Turns out that someone had, but the project was abandoned due to the difficulty of creating the various drivers needed. I had really hoped that the project would succeed so that my old DX would be useful into the future. However, it's now just a voip phone in my house.

There are still a few devs out here keeping up the DX's development. Nightly builds of CM7 for the DX are still being released almost daily. I know Wizard0f0s will be releasing an updated verison of his MIUI build any day now. CM9 builds periodically also seem to be leaking out. I wouldnt' be surprised to see a CM10 port from the Droid 2's alpha build making its way to the DX in the next few months. Not all hope is lost Give it time.
I'm happy with Gummy 1.20. Really it's too bad they killed it. Best ROM for the DX imo.
JB now works on D2 so yes, there are plans to port that to the X.

I second this!
From what I understand, Droid 2 ROM's work well on the Droid X with minimal re-configuration.
So please, please help the many users who are still holding on to their beloved Droid X's!
I purchased a Droid X and a 3800mah battery (china-style, but works great, 2+ days of battery life) for a total of 68 bucks from ebay a few months ago, and now I have Page Plus for 30 dollars a month (this and other phones work with no modding on their network).
Porting this ROM to the X would make my "just-like-verizon-but-way-cheaper" experience complete! THANK YOU SO MUCH AHEAD OF TIME. I WILL DONATE!!!
Lol give it some time. Like I said the dev is planning to move it over.to the X.

In the mean time gummy 1.20 has been updated to include HWA. It was tweeted out about a month ago by 13th angel.
I'm running it now and am very happy with the HWA upgrade. Battery life takes a bit of a hit but you can recover it with pimp my rom.
The Milestone 2 has received a JB port so it's now feasible to think that this could be installed on an DX. One problem though, the M2 is a GSM phone while the DX is a CDMA one. Is it easy to change it from wanting a GSM radio to using a CDMA one? Here's the link if anyone is interested.

[Q] Is there a ROM for Droid X with zero phone functionality?

Recently my wife and I switched to T-Mobile, my wife had the Droid X. Well now she wants me to flash a ROM to it where there is absolutely no phone function so that it will basically be a micro tablet of sorts for our kids (ages 4-6) to use and play games or watch movies on. I have worked on Motorola phones before, my last Moto phone was a Motorola Milestone and Droid 2 Global. For the last almost 2 years I have been on an Xperia PLAY (love that thing)
Anyways, can someone point me in the right direction if there is something like that? Thank you.
I think Dubbsy has a couple over on rootzwiki

If you search on RootzWiki (or Google) wifi only mod (I'll post a link when I get home) you can make any ROM a "WiFi only ROM"

LiquidICS v1.62 for Droid X

I know this forum is mostly dead and people have moved on from the Droid X, but it's still a great phone for those on Verizon MVNO providers.
I've been using LiquidICS v1.62 posted over at rootzwiki for a few weeks and it's the best ICS ROM for the Droid X available. Very stable and good battery life.
It would be nice if you didn't have to visit multiple forums to find out the best ROMs for older devices. XDA used to be the place to go but not apparently for older devices. Sad...

i'm still attached to my Moto X, thanks for the heads-up on that latest rom version.
