Well the guy sounds like an android hater for one.

How do you follow a conversation on twitter between two people? What a PIA
It almost sounds like Beesly has him talked into doing it but hard to tell from twitter

BTW read from the bottom up

  2. @nenolod what you are saying about providing support. It takes up a lot of time if you let it. One of us would happy to put it out for you 10:57 AM Sep 17th via web in reply to nenolod

  3. @nenolod Why dont you "ghost" release it so you dont have to put up with support? I completely understand, I only mod build.props and I get 10:57 AM Sep 17th via web in reply to nenolod

yeah I was in that discussion, its was the great read for droid x users, and no I did not just look at the link he gave:D

it is also really cool that he looks here, so _mrbirdman_ if you are reading this then I love you:)

that member, izomiac, always post some really good info. I remember him from the encrypted bootloader thread.

Yes and it lead to so very interesting reading. :D
I kind of wish these guys would keep this stuff under wraps and make Moto work to figure out what they did. They should be hush hush until they release it. Because once moto knows they can patch it. Maybe they (moto ) will throw in the towel and do like they did with the D1. Claim it was a biz decision. :D
If there isn't enough of us that do the hack before it's patched I can't imagine lots of devs working too hard for a handful of user. :(
I hate bots

wait so you don't think alot of users will use or want this
and even if they do patch it we have the sbf, so... we can just flash back and we are fine

There is one way they could do it, but it would still get leaked eventually
I don't want to say it in case Moto is listening

NO I didn't say that but depending on how fast it's patched would possible limit how many get the hack. Are you sure a sbf flash would undo the fix? I'm not. If its that easy then Moto might as well say forget it you won. Then release a statement claiming they unlocked as a business decision and for the users which they so dearly love. Wouldn't that be nice? (Hey I can dream can't I?)

I see you agree with keeping it hush hush ..PM me the method your thinking of will you? We may want to write all our post in secret hidden text to throw them off also. <--secret message not here:rolleyes:

yeah, when you flash the sbf it downgrades the bootloder
2.2 is 30.01, it think
2.1 is 26.something

They are different but flashing the sbf doesn't change it, it will stay at 30.01. @wadeivy said that he has downgraded back to 26.xx it but isn't releasing a method until it is actually necessary for something.

Smart. Good to know it's possible, though.

oh really...hmm
I swear I saw a tweet by @b16a2smith that said it does downgrade the mbm, maybe he was not talking about the sbf
 
flashing the sbf we have now does not downgrade the bootloader it stays at 30.01. I tried it yesterday.

try what, I have flashed the sbf before, I will try anything though, I wish I knew birdman...I would test anything for him

Yeah but you need to do it again to see if the boot loader is rolled back. If not as soon as its patched everyone that hasn't done the hack (if we ever get one) will be left out.

Never mind though I see OMJ has already done it and confirmed it doesn't.:(
