I'm sitting here, got the zip downloaded. I'm so freaking tempted to try getting into the blur cloud, but I'm a chicken lol.

Well, I tried it. I could not get the cloud button. Maybe someone else will have more luck.

!= means not equal to. Not sure what you were thinking lol.

Damn... I was on my phone and I guess I didn't see the exclamation point... Oh well...

Actually the Atrix and the X2 are nearly identical. That's why the CWM recovery for the atrix works.

You are right. Which is why I have been trying to use your kernel source. Sadly Motorola keeps releasing broken kernel source.

Sounds interesting

[Q] Droid X2 SBF file available yet?

I got a new Droid X2 a couple weeks ago. I wasn't happy with how slow the phone was so I attempted to root my phone and remove the bloatware. To make a long story short I now have a phone stuck in a boot loop. Apparently the only fix is to flash it with an SBF file. Does anybody know of it being leaked yet? Are there any good resources to keep an eye on where it may get leaked to?
nope. just pay attention to the boards here and elsewhere.
I've checked the forums in every category for the DX2 every day waiting for some one to say they got one.

<sigh> I'm looking here and a few other places every day. If I come across it somewhere else I'll post it here.
Is there a way to extract it? If you can give me directions I would be willing to pull it from mine.

Did you guys see this? Supposed boot loader unlock for the X2

Delete me please....just another useless thread after I followed the links. This used to have a link to a purposed boot loader unlock for the X2 but it is just a link to the Atrix instructions.
Mod's please delete this thread.
Looks like no one there wants to even try it. One guy said P3droid would've seen that already and commented on it if it would work. But who knows...

I kinda doubt he would know or not, it would be a lot of speculation on his part. He doesn't even have an X2.
Its only a theory, and i'm not promising anything
He got a pre-rooted GB for x2 without having one which is impressive.

As unfortunate as that may be (and it is really unfortunate) my CM7 work is going to be based on Moto's kernel because I have no choice in the matter atm. That being said, it only takes a few tweaks to make a new boot.img that can be flashed to the phone if and when we get an unlocked bootloader.

Wouldn't it work using 2nd init, similar to the OG X?

Just out of curiosity, For unlocked phones, is the cm7 ROM use the same kernel for all phones? Or is it tailor made for a specific phone?

Which phone do you think they will crack first? More then likely the Bionic, besides, its a much better device.
Don't forget there will be even better choices on VZW than Bionic b4 in a month or 2

I am glad actually that I have until the end of November for my contract to be up. There are a few devices I am waiting on and I am keeping my fingers crossed for a ICS Nexus device by XMAS.

Keep an eye on CVPCS's twitter

He said the X2 (amongst others) will be of discussion. Glad to see we aren't totally forgotten...

Correction he said the DX, DX2, and the Bionic.
Being able to flash without having to be plugged in would be nice. Not that I'm *****iing. A working recovery is better than none. And I'm assuming up for discussion is more for CM7?

Recovery reboot option(Request)

I've always appreciated having the option of rebooting into recovery on the "phone options" when powering off. Typically if I have already used the dx2 bootstrap into recovery previously I can just power down when im plugged in and ill reboot into cwm...and my old dx and other phones I've seen have it typically. Pretty sure its doable.
So if anyones up for adding it to your list of things to do id be extatic.
Thx in advance.
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
We don't have an official bsr. In order for the reboot recovery to work, i think the script calls for Koush's signature, or something like that, and our recovery doesn't have the proper sig. Not only is it a hacked up recovery, it's an ancient one. I don't see recovery ever being added, unfortunately.
Oh, btw, wrong forum.
Sent from my DROID X2 using xda premium
Xodus is correct.
We were all excited for a while when koush got an x2 bout a month or two ago thinking we would finally get a "real" x2 recovery option. Its a little frustrating to see almost EVERY moto phone except for us have that option. And the only "real"x2 difference between our phone and others is our tegra2. I can't see that being the reason we can't get this option. It Has GOT to be doable if someone would just put the work/time into creating it.
Well, don't they have one for the Xoom? We need to see if we can port some of the Xoom hacks. The only difference REALLY are honeycomb and the screen size(right?).

For inquiring minds they're don't know, an unlocked bl allows you to flash cwm to become THE recovery; no bsr or hacked jobs needed.

Cuz XOOM SHIPS with unlocked bootloader of.course
This is what the x2 needs desperately if we ever want to see some.permanent fixes for.performance issues we have had.
I swear someone needs to unlock this caged beast. @Motorola I'm looking at you. STOP LETTING VZW BULLY YOU INTO PERMANENT LOCKED BOOTLOADERS. THEY ARE BREAKING THE LAW!! AT LEAST LEAK US SOME.OPTIONS OR.PUT A METHOD OUT THERE FOR US TO USE...doesn't even need to be official on their website....just send it to a newb in the x2 forum and let em spread the news lol....AAAAGGGHHHH

Ya well even though we aren't unlocked...it would seem that some sort of autorun sequence for the two commands in the dx2 bootstrap could be programmed to run one after the other in the background at the push of a button on that menu. But it couldn't really be that simple -_-

Logic seems airtight. I mean, if you can push the button in System Recovery and it'll boot to charge mode or recovery mode then why can't the same commands used to perform that action be used as a reboot recovery option. I'm no dev. I would imagine if it was that easy, it would've been done by now.
"Reboot widget" from the market is a good alternative for now....

Seems to me the charge mode is the weakest link in the chain. The normal boot sequence is dependent on encryption and system checks, the battery animation doesn't require so much security. It would make sense to me, after reading the cvpcs blog about 2nd init, they could use 2nd init to hijack normal boot, but that sounds like a total pain in the ass.

ya XOdus...with nitro and masta being basically the only two devs for the dx2 I figured I'd just throw this out there and hopefully someone reads it. If i were savoy with making roms I'd be all over it, but hopefully just my train of thought may help someone with their endeavors in making their rom worth while. Nitro put our bootstrapper in his "eclipse parts" so I would imagine he might be interested in advancing farther.
We have it on the bionic. We're locked plus have to use a bootstrap. Ask around in that forum....
It's on Th3ory's ROM.

I can do it but you still have to be plugged into the wall. I found it kind of pointless since you need the app to toggle it back to charge mode if needed.
