subject: Motorola: Droid X is not a dev phone buy Nexus One, if you want ROM [print this page] So the bootloader on Droid X is locked So the bootloader on Droid X is locked . We know it. For many developers and hackers, its a bit disappointing as the original Motorola Droid has become the de facto phone dev, since the lead time for Android 2.0, and had unlocked bootloader. This allowed them(and us) can easily flash ROM on the new phone.
So what is going on with Droid X? Motorola Lori Fraleigh explains last blog back in February:
understand that it is a community of developers interested in w Android beyond Application Development and experiment with Android System developing pment and re-flashing phones. For those developers, we recommend that you obtain or Google phone ADP1 author or Nexus One, which are intended for these purposes. At that time, the Motorola Android-based phones are designed for consumers and Android developers, and we are now decided not to go to the business of providing a fully unlocked phones author.
The security software on our phones, thereby preventing the image is not loaded-ROM Motorola, has been our common practice many years. This practice is driven by a variety of business factors. They deviate from our normal practice, like we did with the robot, there is no particular reason activity in this field. We understand this can lead to misunderstandings, and apologize for any frustration.
In this way, he wants Moto, and yes it will. For now, it looks like Nexus One Googles phone will remain an official dev. It is also a sure bet that the community of hackers Android will descend like a swarm of X when they are released, so Im not afraid. And it also has to understand unannounced Droid 2 You can see these same functions.
Our question: Is it breaks? Do not even wait to get your hands on the Moto and Verizons new hotness?[ MotoDev by Android and Me ]
