5.9.901? - Motorola Droid Bionic

It appears from threads all over other forums that people are starting to get 5.9.901 pushed to them. Has anyone here seen that yet? It would be...interesting...to get ahold of this release so those of us that are...off the beaten path...could try it and see if it helps us.

Agree totally....as I stated on DF....we need this file to check it.

Looks like a small crowd just may have been thrown into developing or being sh!+ outta luck

He backtracked on that post in his Twitter: "I applogise for any confusion about the efuse crap, i got caught up in it and didnt really do any homework! bad birdman bad! #fail"
More tweets, if you're interested: http://twitter.com/mrweeeedbirdman
That said, as a new Droid X owner, I wish that the Android dev community would be a bit more receptive to the Droid X. There are people -- plenty of them -- out there who want root on their Droid X. Besides, what better way to show up Motorola than to hack their unhackable phone? Getting mad at Motorola is great and all, but it doesn't do much in the long run.
Ohhhhh I just saw that...

I couldn't agree any more. Great post.
I have been talking with birdman and we have come across something but before we or i say anything more, i want to make sure we are correct and we get more resources, i will get more info out if i hear anything, really need to get the hackers together for this one.
glad to hear it b16a2smith
I suggest you guys set up an irc room and even a private wiki to generate a community of devs for this endeavor
I guess the community would want to start documenting the layers of the boot process with hard- and software hooks (which may be an adventure in itself) to start looking for any possible exploits, keeping in mind the interactions between the sbf and the bootloader
Of course get up to speed with the milestone exploits and methods like the kexec, and see how much (if any) modifications they need to be applied to the dx
best of luck, we're counting on you!
Fingers crossed! I'm pretty let down by the EVO...
Me and steve bird are trying to flash some stuff, so far no luck
Flash? Sooo brick or no brick?

Well according to a post on Engadget Motorolla says the efuse will NOT brick phones......hooray!
Now maybe I'll end up snatching one up.

Haha yep. Its great news for all of us! I mean the efuse has been in multiple phones and done nothing so let's hope it doesn't do much, if anything on the droid x

Yea it doesn't brick your phone, but it will put it into recovery mode until you install Moto approved software

Bootloader progress

Was wondering if there was any news or updates regarding the bootloader. Im thankful for all we have so far, plus im a donator to some projects so I help with what I can. Anyone heard anything or have any good references to follow? And whats up with people going to incredibles over x's? I hope no one is giving up on development for the x.

If anyone is working on the bootloader it would be birdman. But until now all he is talking about is the new Flyx rom he is working on.

It almost makes me wish I wouldve kept my Incredible now that they have custom Roms running but the X is much more fitting and better for me. I felt the same way about the Incredible when I had it, didnt think Root was gonna make it and wasnt sure how long it would take to get custom Roms. I jumped ship because of that and a lil bit in part to bad battery life and soon after they got Root and now have custom Roms running. We just have to be patient as we have and hope that it soon comes. I agree with you and am thankful for what we have and we can play in the sandbox just not with all the toys.
Anyone know if the Unrevoked Team has gotten their hands on a DX yet? If not it might be time for another DX donation thread to give this Team a crack at the bootloader.
According to a post at the android forums, birdman is working on something that has to do with the mbm. It think it was Lexusbrian that gave a little tidbit that birdman might have some news for us in a couple of days from now. So be patient becuase it is being worked on.
Sweet. Well lets hold strong dx'ers, give support and donations, eventually well smash this efuse.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Considering how FAST we got root compared to the Dinc and how the whole "efuse" panic basically provoked folks into wanting a DX just to prove the bootloader can be hijacked, I think we'll have something soon.
Birdman has been shooting out some occasional tweets that suggest that he's working on it, as well as on FlyX. I expect we'll have a significant breakthrough soon (a few weeks, in my estimation.... I'm being conservative here... it could be faster), if not a working bootloader hijacking process.

Apparently the documents and code to do this are out there now. All that needs to be done at this point, is for someone to put it into an Update.zip format.
Apparently it involves some kind of exploit with NVRAND while Flashing a new baseband. I'd say within 2 weeks, our phones will be open.
Great news...,looks like ur claim on the android forums was correct LexusBrian

do not release this yet...
I think you should wait to release this until after the Bionic has been out for a few days so they don't/can't patch it closed before it ships - I suspect whatever process you used will work there as well.
You're my hero right now If I had anything to donate to you I certainly would, for now all I can give is praise for your wonderful work though. If I get anything extra though I'll send it your way.

It's absolutely up to Dan to decide about a publication, but he is a security guy, I don't think it fits in his philosophy to keep something hidden, secret.
Keep in mind, exploits can be used on malicious ways as well. So I always back publications of vulnerabilities and thus enabling developers to fix them. It gives us more secure devices.
Otherwise said, I do not blame Motorola/Verizon for fixing all the vulnerabilities, I blame them for locking down devices!
And, like another one said before, it is highly unlikely Bionic will have a patch for this. Bionic users will benefit from this exploit, I'm sure.

Its cool guys. Not everyone shares the same personal values as everyone else. Theres bound to be some arguing somewhere along the line. But if your going to complain, please, make it a valid and useful point. If its not constructive, like pointing out a bug, keep it to yourself. I am willing to hear what everyone has to say, as long as its in moderation. I will throw up a thread here for all you D3 owners, so its on this forum as well.

I've been running this since he released it this morning. very snappy and I havent had any issues pop up.
In case you do have issues, just have the restore process ready to go, I doubt you'll need to worry about booting your DX.
I'm going to try Jewremy's MOD later and see if it works with this (since its 5.6.890 based). I'll report back on how that goes.

As long as you have a stock recovery and not a custom one you can take an OTA. You will probably loose root though.

How are you going to ask that but then not see his reply about him apologizing for not seeing it because he got the notification and came straight here. So get the hack out of this thread and quit trying to be cool by an attempted flame that already apologized AND answered your "flaming question" before you even ask it but then you ask why he didn't see something?

haha for real? here's a response formatted in the long run-on sentence structure that you like to use because I fear if I don't use it you won't get my point.
"How are you going to flame me but then go on to say that it's not cool to flame when you clearly don't understand what the point of pointing out this kind of lazy behavior is? So go troll somewhere else and quit trying to be some sort of pseudo mod by trying call out legitimate criticisms of other users because you don't understand that apologizing for doing something wrong while performing it doesn't make it right ESPECIALLY considering the facts the OP gave us about not turning his phone on for a week. Who would come on here and assume they are the first to get an update without thoroughly checking? and make a thread in the dev section so rashly? The OP would. So I called him out on it. So he won't be inclined to make the same mistake twice. I can only hope that this post will be as beneficial for you.
good day.

Well hot dang....
I am currently on trip and have not turned on my phone on for the benefit of my family. I was in the airport when I first turned it on to see what I missed. Since it came up when I turned it on, I came here first as I've been dying for an update and I was willing to bet that others were in the same boat. I did what I would normally do with updates and download them and upload them somewhere for safe keeping. Then came here and posted my screenshots and moved on. It wasn't until I got into the plane that I saw that its been about a week, that its been out, and that development goes on with or without me. Sure I didn't have to apologize in advance and sure I didn't have to put the disclaimer at the bottom that if what i posted up was old news then please delete. I would of been fine with the thread being deleted or moved in which case it was. I've been here for so long and have contributed to numerous threads and development to know that if something new comes out, jump on it and share the info with the everyone. It wasn't to flame on the threads, it wasn't to spam and clutter the dev section. The mere fact that this happen show immaturity.
A simple note saying please move thread to general discussion would of suffice, not bring hatred and ignorance into a community that is devoted to acquire knowledge and to share it.
While some of us don't have that pleasure to get updates first, I have been blessed with having on time or in Moto case, Moto feedback team which I have always participated in. Again plain and simple I tried to help by providing info and supply for devs out there to work on. Yes It would of been simple for me to thorough look thru the threads and see whats been going on. And I did that after posting and did see that I was not first. Thats fine. It wasn't laziness that brought this, it was something that jumped on in the hopes to help out. But take the hatred else where as if your going to take offence in someone trying to help then you dont belong here, plain and simple.
