Working on one and having one are two different things tho. You could be working on it for 1 day or 30 years ;P

That is sad news. Do you not have a d2 anymore, intentionally?...ie. tired of working on it :laugh: . If not, I can send you mine in a couple of weeks if you still have any interest in trying to get it to work.

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.

Kernels.

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.

but it is a cdma phone this is the biggest problem because we need GSM module to work, to do this we need GSM drivers compiled for kernel from droidX fw.
So if I flash a fw of droid x in my i9003,then then network would not work but will the rest of the features work?

May be in the near future as we get CWM recovery
CM7 is a distant dream, as none of the Devs have adopted this phone. To port CM7 we need a good devs support. Its a hard fact.
but phones like galaxy 5,optimus gt540 and galaxy 3 which are not so popular have cm7 support.... its not fair for us (i9003) owners..

The dev's most likely have one, or had one, and could thus support it. Buy them one to support, or stop complaining.
No idea why i'm still reading this forum, the complaining is getting old. :/

Both of you are right, if we need some support we need to donate the phone to devs.

No There are 3 ways:
1. Become developer

3. Wait for Samsung

If we are taking about CM7, samsung cannot help and becoming dev over night is not easy, to port custom firmware. St the max we can port a theme out an application.

now that the boot loader is unlocked...

Will there eventually be any roms that get rid of the webtop stuff all together? I have played around with it a bit and ultimately found it to be worthless and haven't used it since.
I want vanilla android! It sucks that is so much to ask for in this market. (I had Nexus S but cannot live with t-mo.
I'm sure there are devs working on porting ROMs such as CM7 or AOSP. Patience is key right now. I know some CM devs are receiving some Atrixes.
Give it a few weeks. ROMs don't appear over night.
Hopefully man I just want pure 100% android

Where was it stated that CM devs are receiving Atrix devices?
I would kindly like to stalk them. In private though... don't want to piss them off.

Me too. I could care less about CyanogenMod. I want PURE ANDROID!!
I just want my Tegra 2 dual core phone to HANDLE LIVE WALLPAPERS.
I also want the WIFI to work (stopped detecting WiFi altogether)
Will be posible to port any variant of Honeycomb? Honey can handle the DualCore module, is AOSP and has HighRes. I think it will be better than any 2.x.x. Motorola Xoom has a very similar hardware so I don't think that it's imposble, but all you are the genius here

Multicore works perfectly fine in the current version of Android on the Atrix, as well as Gingerbread. Honeycomb will not be backported. Look forward to Ice Cream Sandwich instead, which is the "new hotness" I guess you could say.
If you want better multicore support, look to the app developers to add it into their apps. Android can run multicore but without support in the app, as I understand it, it won't use both cores. I am sure someone else with more knowledge about the underlying structure of Android could shed better light on the subject.
Honestly, where does this misinformation stem from?

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.

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.
