1.6 is the highest currently. Doubt anyone is going to push Eclair higher, everyones moving onto developing for FroYo.

Oh, too bad. My epic runs super fast at 1.6 ghz. With absolutely no problems. This epic CPU should do 1.8ghz with no issues. Can't wait! I noticed the stock sprint blue water live wallpapers rippled so much smoother at 1.6 compared at 1ghz. Beautiful powerful phone compared to the Htc lineup like the htc evo snapdragon. Snapdragon is just a paper tiger.cool name but no guts.

where is this diversity s kernel you speak of? a quick search and i no findie.
I have a question somewhat pertaining to this. I want to overclock, so I was thinking of flashing a custom ROM. I created a ROM of my system as-is, with the stock ROM. If I wanted to flash my backup ROM and get rid of the new one with a different kernel, will I be able to just flash my backup, or do I have to flash the stock kernel before I flash the ROM back?
Probably a stupid question, but I am slow, so better to ask than mess up my phone.

aye, its better to ask than brick, but even BETTER to search! but i wont be a total douche, if you backed up your phone with cwm, restoring your backup will restore EVERYTHING on your phone as it was when you backed up, kernel included, so no need to flash a stock kernel back first. did you backup with clockworkmod recovery or a backup app?

It does not backup the kernel. Flash the kernel of your backup and then do the nandroid restore
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I did the clockwork backup. So if I go download the stock kernel from the brick thread, than I can just flash the kernel with odin, then do a restore with the backup I made?
Thanks guys.
I use cwm to flash back to stock. Kernel and everythings gets put back in place again.i never have used odin. Cwm does a fair job.

1.3 Ghz is the highest overclock, the 1.6ghz are fakes. Yes you will get benchmarks scores that appear higher, but it is not real. Get a stopwatch and time how long it takes Quadrant to finish with 1.2 ghz compared to 1.6Ghz, interesting that the 1.2 Ghz is faster huh?

SBF is a recovery file. You use it to flash your phone back to stock when you foobar it.
Root method? Go to Droid 2 Development and it is stickied. It is DORoot or Easier 1-2-3 Root method.
All the ROM's are pretty solid. I use Fission, but ApeX and GummyJAR are also excellent. If you check out my website, www.kimete.com/video.html, there are review videos of all three.
Kernels. You can't do anything with kernels to the D2 at the moment. Locked bootloader...
There's Droid Overclock for overclocking. I highly recommend the recently released Liberty rom. Flashing roms on the D2 will be different from what you're used to because of the locked bootloader so follow the directions to the letter. It's not difficult, just different.
Sent from my DROID2 using XDA App
Yeah definitly get the sbf. Its beena life saver for me a couple of times now. Be sure to get the 2.3.20 sbf though.
Liberty is hands down the best rom for d2, and that's saying something because its only been out a couple of days now.
The droid overclock app is awesome. Its only $1.50 from the market and worth every penny. Loads of features.

Maybe someone can make O/C module for stock kernel, Then all you need is root to push the module. Ask doomlord, blagus or binary. they may be able to help
Unlocking the bootloader really is the best thing I have done to my Play, it opens up soooo many new options, custom roms, kernals, overclock, recovery etc!
My Play is running at 1.5ghz, it is so fast now! I did have it running at 1.7ghz but didn't want to over do it!

Loading the CDMA CM7 will allow the R800x model to overclock, but you lose the xplay launcher and verizon market. It's still a little buggy atm as well.
Hey guys. I'm currently using a Motorola milestone x (debranded droid x) on a small CDMA network called Appalachian wireless. Its been a decent phone, but its a little outdated and as a result it's been having some performance anxiety as of late- namely a lack of available ram. I would love to be able to root the phone and help alleviate some of these issues, as well as adding an upgraded custom rom. Here are my phone specs:
SYSTEM VERSION: 4.5.604.MB809.ACG.en.US
ANDROID VERSION: 2.3.5
KERNEL VERSION: 2.6.32.9-geadffa3
[email protected]#1
BUILD NUMBER: 4.5.1_57_MX2-34
ERI VERSION: 5
PRL VERSION: 10032
I'm Relatively new into the smartphone scene, and this is my first dive into the world of rooting, so please take nothing for granted. A step by step tutorial is what I need, and I haven't found one of those for the milestone x, so I figured I'd sign up and all for help. Tracks in advance for any help you can provide me.
I can't give you a step-by-step, but since you are already on system version .604, all you have to do it use the Zergrush v4 method (which can be found via a Google search).

Cool.. Is this zergrush a superoneclick root? And it won't disrupt my 3G coverage or anything? I read online where some users on the small regional carriers lost they're data coverage after rooting... Also, I read somewhere about how people who were rooting bricked their phone because of tripping some efuse that motorola had added through the 2.3.5 OTA update. This won't be an issue either?
So I was researching that zergrush method, and it talking about using an nTelos sbf file. Woul d I have to flash this sbf to root, and of so would it negatively affect my phone?
Sorry if this is a dumb question. Like I said, I'm totally new at this.

You wont have to flash any SBF files. Users not on .604 must flash the SBF file; however, since you are already on .604 you do not.
So just root with zergrush =D

And is vortex a 2nd-init rom that I would have to sbf to get back from? Because I currently have no sbf available from my carrier.
Yea just bootstrap install zip from SD and then factory reset/clear cache

Is this the MB809 Milestone X?
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,

I'm pretty sure the bootloader has not been unlocked. The kernel will remain stock no matter what rom you flash.

The generic .SBF won't work on our phones. It would sort of work prior to the Gingerbread update but after it will brick your phone. I think I have it saved somewhere though if your feeling adventurous.

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.
