EDIT: 09/09/2010
The Wiki is comming along nicely, a thank you is in order to everyone who contributed. Of course it can always be improved, as such I am keeping the original post below. While we still don't have a great following for the DX on XDA we at least have a nice and organized page in which you can find links to the major breakthroughs and how-to's. If you are new to the DX and are looking for a place to begin, thanks to the fine people on this forum the XDA Droid X WIKI (Found Here) is a great place to begin
As new things are discovered for the Droid X we encourage you to add them to the Droid X WIKI, it can always be removed later if need be. It is a great start however. Thank You all, and good work.
From Sleuth255: Just a quick (slightly off topic) note to also say that XDA mods are here to help. The basis of XDA-developers is after all, development, and it is within device specific development forums such as this that all the magic happens. So here is my promise to all Droid X/Android XDA developers using the facilities of this forum: If you need help keeping a development thread "on topic", PM me and I'll place XDA's cosmic moderating powers at your disposal. Obviously, there's give and take here; we're a community based on idea sharing after all, but the point remains: Let's work together to make the Dx something truly amazing.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have more reading to do so I can further acquire "mad Dx/Android skills" without having to resort to noob tactics.
Original Post:
So I have just come from my Droid Incredible... Yesterday as a matter of fact... And could not help but notice the complete lack of organization of all significant breakthroughs for the Droid X. As well as a lack of anything at all in the WIKI.
It actual made me miss the XDA Droid Incredible forum, which was a joke in comparison to the XDA Droid (original) forum... Point being it doesn't say a lot for our Droid X Forum...
SO! I figured I would put out a request to get this forum a bit more organized, even if that means doing so through the XDA Droid X wiki. At least here we can place links to the most significant breakthroughs, etc. I will start working on it myself as soon as I locate some of the more important breakthroughs, such as root, bootloader, Froyo upgrade and downgrade, and any others.
Find the Droid X WIKI Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=File:Motorola_Droid_X.png
I invite everyone to help, after all not everyone was reading the forum from the start, and just for kicks some time, try searching "root" on any of these forums, you might as well just start scrolling through the pages without searching, because you'll get about the same number of results...
EDIT: So I have decided it is not the lack of effort for this forum as much as the number of occupants. Even the Droid Incredible Development forum (which is considered to be a phone lacking development backing) is being viewed by around 200 people at the moment of writing this. Ours (DX Development) currently only has 20 occupants... I have yet to see a phone in which XDA was not the main forum used for communication, perhaps this is the first?...

You are correct.. I am sad as well coming from the HTC touch where the XDA following was huge...
There isn't so much love for the X here on XDA and you are not alone in hoping it changes!
I'll help out when I get back in town tonight. This place is not user friendly.

**EDIT** - I just updated it with some standard info... more will come soon.
BUMP!!!
This thread needs to be stickied!!!
Yeah I agree... Seems like a popular enough phone, apparently not with the devs though. So, I have decided to go ahead and start building my own rom. My first theme is almost done too...

Ill give a helping hand...
I agree, with everyone who has posted so far. I'm bummed that there aren't people flooding these X forums... I'm not great at development or anything, but have done a decent amount of information compiling for the Wiki at the server lab I manage, and would be willing to help contribute in any way I can!
Agreed.
I usually lurk around in XDA, but it is the first place I check out DX info.
I'll help with whatever I can.
NOOB would love to help
Although I am not new to XDA forums, ( I owe my sanity to you guys for getting me through some of the hairy spots in the WinMo days), I am totally new to Android. I started with the HTC Aria, then got tired of AT&T's BS, so I went to Verizon (where I now have 3G in my home!!). I started there with the Droid 2 but I wanted a better screen and the extra memory so I just picked up my Droid X (after waiting 3 weeks) today. I'm excited, but I know that there are deficiencies - such as no update yet for the DX.
I don't know what I can do to help, but I've always learned that the best way to get acquainted with something is to sometimes just dive in with both feet. I'm just a lowly System Admin Manager for an IT company. DROID X excites me and we truly do need to bring in whatever is needed to get our membership to a level that's worthy of Moto's 'flagship' phone.
Just let me know what I can do to help and I'm there - as I said, I owe you guys big time.
Maraming salamat (many thanks),
Miguel
Now that this is stickied... you should change the title and first post to something along the lines of: "Look Here First" "New to the Droid X" "Noob ALERT!!"
Lol, ok.. maybe not the last one but something similar. Then edit the first post to something explaining the wiki or just the link.
It will help out on confusion in the threads and open ppl eyes to things that are going on and getting lost in the shuffle.
The biggest issue I have seen, is that XDA is an HTC forum, and the Devs dont mess with the Motorolla devices. Other forums have devs that work on the DX and that is where the traffic is. P3Droid, Koush and Birdman have completed the most significant breakthroughs, and they are not a part of this forum. I wish this place had more of a DX following too...for now, I stick with MDW.
Well I just recieved my DX yesterday. Thanks to this great wiki and the people behind it, I was able to root and do some modifying with in the first hour of having my phone, and I didn't have to tear through the forums. Thanks for all of the effort and keep up the good work.

I like MDW alot as well, man, but I DO notice that a good number of posts there will link back to something here in the DX forum on XDA. So, it seems that the higher ups at MDW do at least lurk or contribute here as well.

nice!
after 2 months, I still want to keep my 2.1 OS (in case I want to start some coding on it & 2.1 is a safe version to test on). But I will definitely upgrade to official 2.2 OTA.
btw, is there a list of reasons in the wiki to root & upgrade to 2.2?
Hi! Thanks for getting this wiki and DX forum organized, CaptainTaco and all! I'm relatively new to Android, the DX, and rooting, and all that entails, and was looking for a place to start... and here I am! Have been hearing about XDA for a while, and look forward to learning and contributing as I can!

Welcome aboard. Just make sure you read everything you can before asking a question. I usually ask Google first before I post in a thread. You can also use the hand search feature at the top of the forum.
I say this cause ppl can get pretty heated for threads started asking questions or posting information that has already been answered or giving.
You can always pm me or hit me up on gtalk. A lot of ppl do and I enjoy turning the light bulb on for ppl lol
I've been lurking since I got my new phone, glad to be here. I'm rooted on 2.2 OTA and have learned some about the signed boot loader and latest updates via lurking and searching different forums each day. The wiki looks very complete as far as I can tell, great job!
Thanks for all the work on the Wiki. Great stuff!
I'm coming up to speed on Android/DX now. Very cool platform. I'll be helping more/developing for the Dx soon.
I may not post here much but I try to pay attention and read as often as I can.
P3droid is also a member here as jimmydafish.
Motorola devices will always be second class citizens on this forum...just the way it is.
So here is the deal. I have been rocking a x2 for quite a bit of time and during most of that time the Eclipse Rom is what Ive been running. Its my favorite blurless rom ever. Ever since I got my droid bionic I have wanted nitro to bring his eclipse goodness over to the bionic world. He recently agreed and stated that if he was able to get a droid bionic he would start developing eclipse roms for it. I am starting this donation page just out of curiosity to see how many other eclipse lovers are out there in the bionic world. I also am starting out the donations with the first donation to nitro in hopes he can get a bionic soon. Cheers
Here is a link to Nitro's profile page and twitter info

Oh i almost forgot to mention.... He already gave us the 1% battery mod for the bionic which has rocked my world.

Just do a search for "Is it rooted yet?" and "Will our bootloader ever be unlocked???" and it should take you right to the forum.
I just picked one up.
I really don't feel at home here in "General Discussion" begging for root access, and thus strongly support the creation of a forum as well. I need to be amongst my people, so that we can all be upset together about not having root access to our day old phones yet. I really need an avenue to start a new thread with a title like "How long do you think it will take?" or "Why don't 2.3.5 exploits work on 2.3.6?"
In the meantime, I think I'm going to duct tape this thing to the back of my Galaxy Nexus and create the ultimate QWERTY slider phone.
(In all seriousness, +1 on a Droid4 forum )
You know there's going to be one eventually, just be patient.
Going from the original droid to this is incredible. Well worth the wait!! Completely different phone and I love it! Eagerly awaiting a nice present in the form of a Droid 4 forum
In the meanwhile, you could go to droidforums

I was wondering if you mind to search before posting.....

Hello people, im here in order to talk you about my latest work...
I have been making roms based on gingerbread modding apps and ui to get almost a full holo experience, in this case i have been working modding flix123 20s rom and i have almost a few bugs but since i seen that ics updates will roll out in some weeks i see useless to mod gingerbread so i ask you this:
Would you people, really like me to finish my work?, well the community work since it have some devs parts such as status bar look...(of course i ask everybody to use those parts in TecnoBread)
In case you ask, why TecnoBread? Easy, Tecno because the techno look, but in my place its called tecno so it sounds better like that...and bread because its based on gingerbread
TecnoBread does not only feature a better look, it also have lot of new features such as:
New fonts
New bootanimation
New launcher
Latest Gapps
Removed some LG apps
Build.prop tweaks
New sounds
New ui
New transitions
New locker
New wallpapers
And more things that i dont remember now
Also for those people who thinked that a 15 yo boy cant do nothing i just say that "age is not important, knowlegde is" so next time think about it, i leave you all with some screenshots of the current work wich can also be found on my album in my profile
Thanks you all and hope you like what you see
Good luck

Hi,
the screenshots look very good, you really should go ahead and finish it :good:
Keep in mind that *hopefully* end of September final ICS for SU660 will be out, BUT this doesn't mean we (P990) will receive it at the same time.
Just publish your ROM, if there are 2 weeks between your release and ICS it's enough - people's interest or let's say people's feedbacks on a specific version of a ROM begin to decrease drastically some days after the release. If you don't publish a new release of the same ROM in time, two weeks after the first release nearly noone will post anymore new feedbacks or posts in your ROM thread.
That's completely usual, just look at Temasek's CM7 thread - once he stopped (nearly) no more postings in his thread.
So what I want to say is: try to release your ROM some time before ICS, 2 weeks are enough, enjoy the big interest that will be there in the first days and if you want to keep it that way, just update your ROM every once in a while so that users will keep posting and being interested, until ICS finally comes out

Thanks, i will think about it...lets just say that im not full of free time...im planing a big party, i have school, in case i try to finish, it will take some time to fix those glitchy bugs

The screenshots are sure quite nice, so why not finish the job and publish it? I'm pretty sure some people will like to use it, and chances are that many won't upgrade right away to ICS / JB until CM releases a fully working, stable CM10 for us so I'd say you still have plenty of time to work on your ROM.
Keep up the good work!
I think it would take quite a while before a complte bug-free CM9/CM10 arrives even after LG releases ICS for our P990. So meanwhile there will be so many eager users who would like to test/taste your ROM.
Personally, I really liked the screens you have posted. The only thing I hate about Gingerbread is the in-call screen and I would definitely give it a try if you have remodeled the in-call screen as well in your ROM.
Looks like a ROM I'd like to have as a daily ROM until a fully usable CM10 is avalible.
Keep up the good work and give us something we can test
Even at 15 you look quite promising, present us with a bug free rom, we are waiting eagerly
Eagerly waiting mate.good things are always appreciated...so come
O2X with Magical ROM and supersonic kernels from my buddies
Looking very promising, nice screens!!
Keep thing simple and functional is
the key to a great rom.
A great "before ICS" rom.
Why u all treat my like a five years old boy?... i dont know how 15 boys look in your place but im not a baby lol

Siempre y cuando no te montes una gran fiesta como la de Proyecto X, todo bien :laugh: jaja
The Rom looks nice, I think you should finish it, at least for yourself, so you can say that you finished your project, then share it with the world
Something that I think might make your Rom more useful is if it has a swype menu in the notification bar top area and if the notifications are deleted by swyping as well. Those are features from CM7 that will also be in the official ICS release that I can't seem to live without.
So whatever you decide, you know there's people interested, and even if the ICS update comes a day after your build release, at least you finished it and it helps you in your formation, so you can develop good ICS based Roms in the future.

What? Noone did that, ppl just gave you the feedback you asked for.
Also maybe if you wouldn't mention your age and that you don't want to be seen as a child in every second post it would be a lot easier to think of you as a mature person
post 1 - mimimi age is not important, tell me if I should finish my work

Oh boy you just got some additional beginners advice, who you obviously are as this is going to be your first ROM release, and you are confusing this well-meant additional advice with being treated like a baby.
However having this posting of you in mind in my eyes you clearly are an immature, whiny boy, who's always misinterpreting and whining around about how 15 yo boys look in other countries WTF WHO CARES? People gave you the feedback you asked for and you keep whining and whining ...
Please keep the problems with your age which you obviously are having out of the forum.
Things could be so easy:
to avoid prejudices, just don't tell your age in every post. don't tell it and people can't judge you on what they don't know.
do not just TELL people that you are soooo mature and no baby, but ACT mature instead, The things you posted here are not mature at all...

I wanted to post that I love what you did to the GB ROM and to continue your work.
Then I saw your post where you complained about other people treating you like a young boy. I checked and didn't see a single post where anyone is treating you "like a baby".
Being a developer myself I think the feedback you got was good and if I would be the OP I would have been glad about the encouraging posts you got.
Now you made another ridiculous post stating that people explain everything you didn't ask for to you like a 10 year boy. I don't see anyone doing that? WTF are you talking about?
There's just one person who isn't treating yourself as an adult - and that person is you.
The reason that you image people to make posts treating you as a boy does indeed make you one.
So bottom line is: as long as you see every normal post as a threat to your age I don't need your ROM. As soon as you get mature enough to not misinterpret every single post and stop trying to read things between the lines which are not there: I'd be glad to see your ROM out here.

I did not know of carburano's work with the LG Optimus 2X for GB but with ICS I do have to say I really appreciate the time and effort he has put into the development. His thread in the development section is one of the most read and posted thread. I believe it is almost as large as the JB threads and in some cases larger. Even his old GB thread is still being posted to and growing monstrous in size.
I have tried to keep up with his ICS thread but it is so hard with the large number of posts everyday, some seeming to be constant repeats of previously asked questions or small replies to others. In some cases people just quote someone else and add lol. Everything I see points to carburano being very dedicated and committed to his work and followers. I can understand the difficulties he has sifting through the posts looking for good feedback and positive replies to his hard work. I am certain that he reads over every post and each one takes up some of the time he sets aside for us all.
Being such a large and popular thread I was surprised not to see more threads on DjangoManoucheX (yes I even used the search feature) where people would discuss everything from how a particular ril performs to which baseband people are using with his rom. But than again without them being started by the creator of this fabulous rom few people may take them seriously and in some cases may not take the time to search for them.
@carburano thank you for breathing life into my phones have never worked better. I have 3 LG2X's and some nights I may install roms with different kernels to see how they work for a few days, taking note of particular things I like better than others and how things are implemented. I enjoy this type of playing with the phones, I spent many years as a electronics and computer technician and finding something that keeps me this excited is beyond words to explain. Yet after many tests I keep coming back to your rom as the standard.
Please take the popularity of your thread and rom as I hopefully believe it is meant to be, a positive show of how much everyone appreciates your work. Some people may get over excited like kids in a candy store waiting for the store keeper to restock the shelves and sometimes this may lead to them typing to fast or some things lost in translation. Seeing your work and any new release you put out is like Christmas time all over again.
I would have tried to post this on the DM rom thread as I could find no other thread praising your work but 2 things stopped me
1. I am new so can not. I have lurked in the shadows for to long watching and
2. I need to try and figure out what the "on topic" topic's are. So hopefully in the general area is where I should put this.
Thank You again carburano I believe things could not be better with you keeping the phone and your followers so well looked after.
Heya, I'm glad you liked his ROMs but the thing is carburano is not a developer, he is a "rom cooker". . He "cooks" a rom using the preferences/addons/themes etc.. he likes.
Other than that, I support this post. I think he is a great contributor to this community.
thanks carburano.
Thanks
I appreciate the clarification in terminology. I am behind and need to catch up some.
My main goal was to try and express my gratitude and maybe others for the work he puts in to make our life and phones better and easier.
Hello...
Carburano is a great cooker, and even so good that we could say developer, at least he's able to give Roms as good as he was a 'developer'.. And a good person as far as I 'know' him
But the community deceived me a lot theses days because they didn't really understand the meaning of XDA and of what he is doing, for FREE.
He would not provide his update to everyone because some have though his thread was a general/Q&A thread... and what some replied ?! "Ok, no problem, we don't care, if you don't provide us a even better Rom every week we switch to an other". But boys tell me, what's are the problems that 'everybody' encounter with the 1.4 ? It is fully and absolutely working, stock based and theme with a kernel that LG was dreamimg to build but wasn't even able to.
So what do theses guys want... every developer deserve respect for what they are giving to our phone which was at the beginning made for the developer's phone only, so you can't complain of anything about what Carburano is doing
@Carburano: Thank a lot for what you gave us, giving our old phone an extended life

A sad day it is.
When we take something for granted that was given for free and than expect to be treated like we paid for it.
carburano and other developers / chef's / cookers already have enough things to do with there own life that their free time and evenings should be spent doing the things they love because they want to and not because people try to make them feel bad about not giving all their time to one thing.
I have stayed off forums on many different websites and out of the conversation because I am more than happy to patiently wait for the next release or happy to work out all the bugs that I can on my own before I bother anyone, but now it is to late I should have joined earlier if for nothing else than to click on the thanks button.
@carburano because of the great work I have seen in your rom it has peaked my curiosity to maybe give it a try myself and see what I can do with my phones. It is a good thing there are high quality developers and chefs on XDA that I can try to seek guidance from. I would expect there are alot of people who do create their own custom roms but also keep them private to avoid the stress that seems to be taking over.
I learned from playing addictive online games that Real Life takes priority and you need to take the time to ensure it does not slip past you while you look at the computer screen.
No problem man.. You are absolutly true, the community have been really disrespectful towards you and your life that we all know very busy, and I really hope that your decision will make some minds change..
Again, thank for your work..
Hi carburano, i really reeeally reeeeeeeally love your work on DMX. I always come back to your rom when i try others rom's. That speed, smoothnes, battery life.
Well, now its over because some idiot's. :banghead:
But if you relese newer version's of your DMX, can you please send me links?

Take the advice of your quote and live well, your work speaks for itself. If you decide to share any further work I know there are dedicated people who are more than willing to provide positive feedback to what works and does not work. My wife gets mad at me when I change her phone because I see something I want to test out on it so I will have to just keep playing with my other 2 LG2X's for now.

Not for me. I want my O2X to live forever.
I've just had my power button replaced, and I'm even considering buying a new battery for it just so I can make it feel new.
Welll guys...
Life goes on.....
Thx Carbo,one more time...
:good:
Carbru bro what I am seeing this?

Man, this is sad because of a few stupid guys, we lose a great dev like you ! :crying:
I've been a fan from your first ICS release, I loved your jokes during install, like the cookie recipe and the fake windows install !
Now I have DM X1.2 and can't update anymore
Can you send a link for us who enjoyed all your hard work ? :good:
Thanks for your time and work Carburano, don't let stupid people upset you !
But Carburano, why so many of us have to be punished this way like the bad ones? I'm still at Stock 2.3, when I see the news about DjangoManouche X 1.5 I see the perfect rom to my phone. I just hope some day I can use your rom, because to me, your rom seem to be the best one. We will miss you man!

Hey mate,
I do have one suggestion which you might want to try.
Create an Q&A or userthread in the general section, where people can post more freely.
Add big fat red lines at your op stating that every kind of offtopic needs to get posted there and only posts for bug reports etc. are allowed in your dev thread.
Then consequently report users who break the ground rules.
If someone does it continuously ask the mods if they could hand him an infraction.
This forum is about development and contributions - not about dumbasses who can't keep their mouth shut and think they need to clutter threads in the development section.

I tried to find Waldo and failed
Well I looked in the official release thread for DM 1.5 link and I think I found the post where carburano had placed his link but I think it has already been removed or maybe moved to a new post due to the problems that thread was having. No one wanted to be subjected to the same problems he was having. That is sorting through all the extra off topic posts.
For some people I hope it opened their eyes to the problem, for others all they could do was complain about it even though carburano posted the exact page where he shared.
I'am happy playing with 1.4 it works great.
@carburano good job in the way you posted the link, if even a few people now think twice before they post threads or where they post them I would say you accomplished the task of educating them.
I will keep looking in my spare time, maybe get lucky one day.
I need link for Dm1.5?Thnks.
