Bootloader crack a near future possibility...

Meanwhile, Birdman's twitter's gone missing and @alldroid posted this yesterday, so who knows:

Looks like @koush is about to prove our time a waste unless it turns out we have a better method. Since he didn't want to work together ...

Twitter / AllDroid: Looks like @koush is about ...

They've been working on a custom recovery method since they got this dev phone, meanwhile koush has been doing his own this whole time. He didn't want to work with birdman or rainabba and now he's got his own thing possibly releasing soon (he was first to release pictures with proof of concept) and I get the feeling Alldroid team is a little upset about it. Sorta a bad situation...

But their little friendly (unfriendly?) competition is good for us users.

It is, but a collaboration could also benefit us. Someone will do it.

if kush does the recovery, doesn't that mean all we have to do is download rom manager to flash the recovery?

If they stayed in good spirits and were just working towards their cause and not a "first" yes its great for us. However thats not the vibe I'm getting from this right now...

It almost feels like Bird and Rain have given up because of Koush's strides he's made on his own. They seem disappointed to me and since they're some of the best in the boat right now I really hope they stay motivated and on the project

It is sometimes hard for those that receive such praise to put their egos aside...just sayin'

All very true.

Let's just get this done guys.

It does sound like they're getting pretty close now though, not cracking the bootloader but getting us some custom ROMs (minus the kernels).

Bird and and Rain needed a day off. DXR is still coming. Bird is still working on Froyo.

So it seems they're still there they just needed a break. Let's hope all remains well.

now kush twitter this:
Nandroid worked on the Droid X. Trying to figure out why I don't have adb in "recovery" now though.

This is a prime example if why them not working together is crappy. I'm pretty sure Birdman had this problem and got it up and running.

your right birdman had adb running in his video, if they would have worked together we would have custom recoverys on our DX already

Does anyone know if they have unlocked the Milestone bootloader???

Milestone still locked. Droid X still locked.
