You do realize that Motorola has locked down the Droid X so you can NEVER load non-moto software on it. It won't even boot past recovery it discovers a non-moto rom. It's part of the hardware.

Not only will it brick the phone if you try to mess with it, it will require a hardware repair (by motorola) to get it working again.
Yikes.

[Q] Is it still worth it?

Hi there!
I currently have a Samsung Galaxy Mini, and i'm about to sell it for about R$200 and buying a Motorola Defy (or Defy+) for about ~R$550. What do you think? Is it worth it, or should i get another phone. Phones here in Brazil are WAY to expensive, so this phone is what I can get for now.
I'm thinking it is great because of screen size and processor. It is also an armv7 phone, which supports full Jelly Bean/ICS experience, different from my SGM which is armv6 with an 600mHz processor.
Btw, how JB and ICS behave in this phone?
Thanks for your opinion guys, and sorry if it is the wrong section

Moved to Q&A, but I almost closed it because you also asked the same question in Off-topic. As you should be aware, double posting is a violation of forum rules.

Wait, what? This is my first post here in this forum LOL

Right, but you posted the exact same question in a different forum, which is called double posting and a violation of XDA rules.

I have had my Defy (from T-Mo usa) since it first came out and have had very good luck with it. Was thinking of switching to a Galaxy 3 but many people are having issues with the wifi-calling feature, which I need. However, I don't spend a lot of time playing games etc. I guess when I need it to do something it can't, I'll switch. BTW I also like that it is SMALL...

Its a pretty old phone. Though we have unofficial ICS & JB(gratitude to our devs) but the phone is somewhat outdated. I'd suggest you to go for Xperia U or Xperia Go(comes with the same IP67 stads as Defy), though not sure if those are available at the same price band in Brazil.The dual-core processor is certainly the +1 for Xperia along with official ICS (& JB by mid Q1 2013)

Hmmm, Xperia Go and Xperia U look quite interesting. Although it is ~100$ more expensive, if I wait for some months, maybe the price will go down. If it doesn't, I guess defy+ will be my choice. Thanks!
EDIT: Wow, it has frontal camera and face unlock... But screen is a little bit smaller... Defy+ is HVGA, right? And no SD card slot either :/ But i'll see, I have time to think

i actually just got a defy green lens almost 3 weeks ago for $120 USD from a friend 2nd hand in very pristine condition. i thought of playing with it for a while but after loading up CM7.2 and CM10 i was quite hooked.. i love small phones for portability and owned a HTC wildfire-s and Alcatel 0918N but eventually sold it due to lack of support from the community.. So if you can find one cheap like mine dont hesitate in getting one.. :cyclops:

Hey guys. Thanks so much for the help, but i've made my mind. I'm going to wait until December and get a Xperia U. Although it has locked bootloader and not that much of custom ROM's, it has official ICS, dual core cpu and stuff. And the price is about R$5,00 more.
Thanks a lot for everybody's help
Ciao

So, I'm going undecided

On what phone to get. I'm looking at a GNex or the Razr M. I love everything about the M, except, it isn't a nexus honestly. But the Gnex's battery isn't so great I hear. So I lean towards the M.
But I digress
my question is, are the chances the M will get Ubuntu high or low? I'd take the battery life drain and the Samsung plasticy feel for all the cool dev stuffs.
Is the dev community really active for this?

Fack, I didn't realize I was still in development, this may have been the wrong place to post this. My bad.
Sent from my HTC Droid Incredible 2 using xda app-developers app

I've owned both. Dev community for this phone is non-existent compared to gnex.
This phone itself is so much better than the gnex. Leaps and bounds on another level, they really don't compare. Battery life is insane, screen is beautiful, hardware/build quality is 10x better&more solid than gnex.
I am a crack-flasher (had the gs3; it got stolen) and the lack of roms fir this phone is NOT a deal-breaker because every other aspect of the phone is so superb.
Sent from my XT907 using xda premium

^^ Agreed. I also have both. Gnex was a cool phone but the M is a much better device where it really counts.

Third agree. I had a SGS3 and it was to Damn big, I was worried about the resolution on this phone but I can't even tell a difference. I had a Gnex before my s SGS3 and the battery was pretty bad maybe 2 and some change of screen on time. On my M it's more like 6 or 7 or 2-3 days unplugged with 3-4 hours screen on. My SGS3 got 3 on a good day and good luck not plugging it in every night.
The m is a very solid phone of you want something smaller and powerful.

Thread moved.
To chime in...
I had both as well. The GNEX's battery dies much MUCH faster in comparison with the M. Plus, the Gnex always lagged in the wrong places and at the wrong time for some reason. Just enough to annoy me. The M never lags... anywhere.

Well, it is a bit upsetting that the dev community is so small. But relative to the gnex, which has been out for at least a year, and is a google, it is expected lol.
I've had pretty terrible experience with Motorola and software/updates (had a droid X2) haha but if this is great stock then all I need is root and I should be great!
Ubuntu would be sick tho
I'm gonna go with the M and hope the dev

To be honest a lot of rom choices are cool, but honestly how many roms for the Gnex are the EXACT same thing with a different theme?
About updates, I think moto is better now that Google is behind them but it obviously isn't a pure Google device. But in all honesty I've had HTC, Samsung, and Motorola phones (even a BB, HTC titan, iPhone mixed in lol) and the one thing constant between them is they all update slow as heck because they don't make money off it. So ya any non Google device has relativity crap update times.
I'll probably keep the m until and Ubuntu phone is released provided it isn't over hyped like crazy.

Glad to see swimguy is on board now
Get the M. Does the GNex have a battery? (Joke people, don't burn me)
Motoblur is too bad once a million bloat apps are frozen. Our ROM selection is slim but quality. All are daily drivers. I had the same dilemma. I figured I get the M and when I drop and break it, I could buy a gnex cheap to use till I replaced my M.
Sent from my XT907 using xda premium

I just traded my Nexus for an M and couldn't be happier. Signal is much better and the quality of this phone was a big step up from my Nexus. I was a crack flasher but I'm happy with the setup I have on this phone stock.

Looks like I'll be getting the M today!
Thanks for the input, glad the community here is nice haha
Pretty stoked to get this phone now. How locked down is the consumer version out of curiosity?

We have a root exploit! And safe strap!....
No awesome kernels and and all that goodness. That's about it. We have enough to get by.
Sent from my XT907 using xda premium

I guess no new kernals is understandable haha since the M is about current with software for now lolol.
Do all the OG razr ROMs and exploits such port over easily?

Well there' no new kernels because we can't flash them. The bootloader is still locked unfortunately (unless you get a developer edition phone).

Ahhhhh, dang, wouldn't kexec help? The razr has it, shouldnt the M get it fairly easily?

Yes kexec is actually about to get a big jump. Hashcode just recently got the source for the jelly bean kernel for our qcomm devices(RAZR HD/M).

See, I got the phone because I figgured I'd be able to root it... turns out it isn't so simple with the Japanese version. Oh well... if you discount all the developer options, this is easily one of the most solid phones around. Long battery life, and it feels tough enough that I could chuck it at a wall... wouldn't try it, of course. Being waterproof is also nice.

[REF][INFO] Different Motorola Moto G (XT1032)

Hi everybody,
I recently (three weeks ago) had a new Moto G. My first one was bought in December 2013 (release month).
My new one was build in August 2014.

I have been using first batch XT1033 for 6 months and no issues at all.

Yes. Otherwise I don't see the point of this tread. I think most who might be interested in your findings would like to see what it actually is you discovered in the event their device needs replaced. I had a bad vibrate motor which was replaced with a new unit and the only side by side difference was the screen was a warmer hue on the new device.
