now that Google has brought over Motorola Mobility, do you think that an unlocled bootloader for the milestone will become available?

So it starts again, the bootloader issue..
Motorola has released a tool for unlocking the bootloader of certain devices. Milestone is not one of them yet.
Do you think Motorola will support the Milestone in the near future?
Or maybe this tool can somehow be exploited to unlock more Motorola devices? Any thoughts?
This is the thread about it.
No chance. I believe alsmost none from the existing lineup, especially those from 2011 and backwards (as our Milestone) will get their bootloader unlocked.
Motorola sucks in the development/openess department.
Since I got my Xperia Arc I can see what are the real pros of an unlocked bootloader.
If it wasn't for nadlabak (mainly) we would still have a FroYo (and a buggy one...) ROM flashed into our devices.
Milestone !? I don't think so.
For all flashing intents and troubleshooting purposes, is the A855 the same as the A853 or at least similar enough to use ROMs and apps intended for the A853 on the A855?

No, do not flash an A853 which is the Motorola Milestone ROM or anything else on the A855 Motrola Droid these phones are very different and you will brick your phone. Only flash Motorola Droid A855 ROM's on the Motorola Droid. Let me know if you still have questions .
Hi just wondering if anyone knows which model numbers of the moto x have an unlockable bootloader i see on the cyanogenmod download page that there is cm for the xt1053, xt1058 and xt1060 does this mean all of these are unlockable or are some of these using safestrap? also does it depend on which region you purchase the phone from? thanks guys and girls

All XT1053 's are unlockable
All XT1052 's are unlockable
All XT1050 's are unlockable
All XT1055 's are unlockable
All XT1056 's are unlockable
All XT1058 's are unlockable EXCEPT AT&T
Only the DEVELOPER edition XT1060 is unlockable
NO XT1049 's are unlockable (except nTelos)
Basically, they can all be unlocked EXCEPT Verizon (though the DEV edition can be unlocked), AT&T, and Republic Wireless.
You can NOT use CM or any other non-stock-based custom ROMs with safe-strap. Safe-strap is for stock based ROMs ONLY.
This is all completely accurate with the exception of the services of the "China Middleman" (use search).
The middleman sells unlock codes for some of the locked variants. While many are successful at unlocking, many are unable to receive codes as well. See that thread for further details.
You are an absolute legend thanks so much, i spent ages looking for that info
Hello, I wish to know if the Pure Edition has an unlocked bootloader ? The Moto Voice and others Motorola features are they presents in the Pure Edition ? Someone know if in Europe the MotoMaker version is only a Pure Edition ?
No it doesn't have an unlocked bootloader, I will never buy a phone with a bootloader already unlocked when shipped, which is insecure.
It, however, does have an unlockable bootloader which you can manually unlock through Motorola website: https://motorola-global-portal.cust...e/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a/action/auth
Whatever default Moto X features should be included in all the variants. The Pure version for US will not have LTE bands support for Europe and you will only get 3G.
Yeah I mean unlockable sorry for the mistake. Thanks for your answer !
Hello all.
I have bought an unlocked Verizon turbo and I'm using it internationally with a foreign Sim card. I have tried to search the forums and google if there is a way to install Moto maxx firmware on droid turbo. Appreciate if you can help me out or if someone can direct me to the right thread.
Thanks all
Till the bootloader can be unlocked i don't think so you'll have to wait until someone unlock the bootloader and the develop for turbo begin
Is not possible at the moment because turbo bootloader it's locked, so you can't flash anything
Thanks guys. Guess I will have to wait and see. The call divert function is useless as of now
