Do you know who the people are? Is there somewhere we can go to check on how they are doing? Surely our heroes are discussing their progress somewhere.
I (along with others, I'm sure) would like to be kept in the loop--that's all.

I'm new to Android development, but I'm a software engineer with Linux experience and lots of spare time for the next few weeks. If you and your friends would like my help, I'd be happy to assist. All I would need is a point in the right direction for something to investigate.

You ain't kidding. I can't get permissions for anything although I am somewhat new to this game. If anyone has an idea they need someone to try I am willing to do so as well as anything to get root back.

well it's good to know that development is happening at the least.
thanks guys, i'll be 'rooting' for you.
Is the reason we can't sbf back to an earlier version because of a locked bootloader? If so is there a way to repack the older sbf with the new signatures? Enabling us to go to a rootable version.

Just wondering Will their be a Moto Milestone Section as im in UK and Droid phones would not work here
put this here becaese the phones are almost identical Thanks
oh and also do you think the milestone will get root because of motorola's locked bootloader and would it be possible to use a similar way to root like with the Milestone1 and it's locked bootloader
Thanks

The root used on the droid 2 should apply, unless google/moto patches it, cause its a hole in FroYo itself

I dunno about the original statement (although its not that hard to believe they woudln't want to...)
But cvpcs just recently started working with the cyanogen team, and since he had been doing GEM for the Droid lineup, he took it upon himself to do a cyanogen build for the X.

This will also mean no more having to bootstrap (mad props to koush for making it though!)
I have been really getting upset about my locked bootloader lately and I REALLY hope that this is the fix!
I want customization for my D2!

Since I have another year and a half with my D2 I am so happy to see this. Especially after playing with CM7 on my Nookcolor. Not that I'm really complaining about fission and apex; they both do a nice job with the limitations in place but I miss CM from my D1.
Assuming the dev's brick their phones trying to make it work; this is nothing but the best news this year (enough to even make me register finally)
Unfortunately, it looks like it doesn't work.

OK I'm currently on the rooted GB leak and I want to return to stock 2.2. Now I have bought the TBH app and I'm wondering which file I should download through TBH to return to2.2.
Thanks
Look for the master stock file. There are two so read them because one of them can't be rooted.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Or you can just download the stock .sbf file and rsd lite and flash it that way. Its how I did it.

Haha thats no the reason ive decided to return to stock. But my reason probably isnt any better. I actually switched back because I LOVED the stock DX 2.2 keyboard and i just couldn't live without lol.
But if someone knows how to get that keyboard on the leaked GB rom, id switch back instantly.
The only reason I went to stock rom was because I was on GB and wanted to go back to liberty.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
REMEMBER! if you ever want to reflash GB your must SBF if you used the monster zip to get back to froyo 2.2. The phone has issues otherwise?
Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk
See this is just nonsense, Motorola and Verizon would BOTH have to bring out new user end agreements in order to be able to look onto your phone without it being illegal. They have no rights to a device that you buy, which means they can't track you period. If they do you can sue their asses for privacy as well as just general illegal searching. Simple as that

ok so the SBF was released recently so is there a way or has anyone found a way to root on the 2.3.4 update? and yes ive used google numerous times any information would be appreciated
