this loads a seperate kernel once the stock locked one loads so we can run a custom kernel for our roms.

Well, we won't necessarily have it in a few days. It will take a lot of work to port it to our devices because of hardware differences, and we would need someone very good at coding these types of things.

it wont be as hard as it seems, we have the same internals as the razr minus the 1gb ram. i dont know if the kexec is the same (it should be for the omap 4430) but the only coding that would be different is getting the kexec to take the modded kernel. once its released for the razr within the week im sure hash is gonna have some fun with this.

There was some discussion of this over at the Razr forum in that thread. The differences between the GSM and CDMA versions of the Razr are alone enough to cause major pains in porting it between the two devices, and it was originally developed for the GSM version.
i would think that since its a nice sized topic in our razr forums its gonna work for CDMA too. the dev of the work around won a developer contest and recieved a CDMA razr along with kejar.
Yay gsm!

Pardon my ignorance on the topic, but this allows us to use another kernel on top of the stock one, but not replace it right? Is the only downside a longer boot time? Also will this be relatively easy to port due to similar hardware or will that another challenge in itself.

so far the longer boot time is the only downside but its not a bad thing considering we reboot only to flash roms or refresh the phone a couple times a week and since it will let us have a fully working rom. this lets the phone boot with the gingerbread kernel behind the bootloader, then after the M splash screen it will boot into the ICS or modified GB kernel that is loaded.
we would have to have hashcode or anyone that has any kind of knowledge of how this really works tell us the time frame. as it stands we dont know anything other than it works on GSM razrs, and the dev has a CDMA razr he is porting it to and its days from release. we need to see the details on how to approach porting this to the D3/D4/bionic. it may not be that hard since its designed to do only 1 thing and hardware is mostly the same.
OP you are being way too optimistic in this thread. Chances of this being ported for D3 is very low as aboves has stated. It won't be anywhere as easy as changing the string "RAZR" to "Droid 3" in the kernels

like i said we have a few guys in here that have experience with coding. if it could be done with the cdma razr it can be done for the rest of them.

It's taking quite a long time to be ported from the GSM Razr to the CDMA one, though. There aren't many hardware differences between those two devices, but for those differences it's taking a large amount of time. Now imagine how long it will take, and how complicated it will be to port, with all of the hardware differences between the Droid 3 and the Razr (and not to mention the different models of the D3; I assume a kexec module for the XT862 would not work on the XT860 or XT883 without changes). You are being a bit too optimistic here, especially with your thread title. It's less a bootloader bypass and more a "we're just gonna load our own kernel after the bootloader loaded the default one, but we still can't change anything about the boot process."
I hate to be the bearer of bad news and the one to shoot down everyone's hopes and dreams, but at the same time I don't want people to get too worked up over this and then get incredibly disappointed when it doesn't come or takes ungodly forever for it to come to use.
Well, you went to the other extreme and assumed it's impossible to port and that even if it could be done it would suck or something like that.
I'd like to take a more neutral stance on this and
a) be exited that this approach is being taken on locked devices.
b) be exited that a relatively similar device to the D3 is getting this kind of attention. because it could make things easier for D3 devs to port it to this device.
c) wait patiently, with no ETA expectations and offer to help with whatever I can to the devs.
I think it's much better than waiting for someone to crack moto's keys.
It's at least a chance.
Hope devs can ( and want to ) do something with this : )

My two cents;
If you like ICS and the 10 inch size the TP is great! I have a Kindle Fire running ICS which I really like but I find myself using the TP much more often. It is faster, smoother, and more storage.
WebOS is a really cool OS but the lack of apps pretty much ruins it for me, I never use it other than just messing around with it to learn more about it, I have very few apps for WebOS. If you want a wide selection of cheap and free apps for kids, Android has plenty of these.
No idea on the usb modem, but it tethers great to every mobile wifi hotspot (android phones) that I have tried.
Battery life is good if you ask me. Maybe not as good as my wife's Ipad 2 but I use the TP a lot more for video than her, which eats battery.
I like the TP so much I bought a second one so that we now have a tablet for every kid on road-trips, it's fantastic

I think ICS runs great on it. I have not run into any problems that a quick search on xda didn't fix easily (and most of those were caused by me screwing with things just for fun that I didn't fully understand).
It works flawlessly enough that my kids (as young as 4) and wife (as tech savvy as the 4yr old) use it all the time and have never had a single problem. They are able to install and use all the apps they want and more.

I personally believe that if you don't give it a try, you'll be short changing yourself. There are a few VERY good ICS ROM's out there right now. The only reason I ever change ROM's at this point, is because I am a flash whore. The current ROM I am on, has NOTHING going wrong with it, aside from the camera not working yet(it is being worked on). That for me is a non-issue, but may be for others. I can honestly say that it is more solid than the ROM's I run in my phone.
Hey guys,
It turns out my Atrix 4G is eligible for the Motorola trade up program and the Atrix HD is the only high end Motorola phone on AT&T. Is the phone rooted yet and are there any roms available? I did a search and there doesn't appear to be official Cyanogenmod, or any other roms for that matter. The main reason I would want to flash would be to get rid of motoblur ... if there are no custom roms is there at least a way to get rid of motoblur and return to android stock UI?
Its rooted and there will be official jb coming out soon! (beta already out)
Motoblur is only in traces, it got phased out.
I'm a flashaholic myself but I'm actually enjoying the Atrix HD just the way it is. Upgraded from the Atrix 4G as well and I'm definitely glad I did. The jellybean leak is very well put together and the 4.2 apps available for download definitely adds to the greatness that is the Atrix HD. The Razr MAXX battery mod increased the life of the phone big time.
Sent from my Jellybeaned Motorola Atrix HD MAXX
I've had my AHD for about a week now, and I'm usually a flashaholic, but honestly I don't see any obvious reasons to need to flash anything. I loathed Motoblur, and thankfully it's not here. I did root though, for obvious reasons. I can tell you that I am extremely picky about phones, and can name probably ten phones I've used this year, and this is my favorite.
Okay cool, thanks for the info guys! Looks like the Atrix HD will be my next phone!
You won't be disappointed!
Sent from my MB886 using xda premium
Yeah same here, I was a flashaholic as well, probably been through 6 or 7 phones this year already and once I got my hands on the Atrix HD, I am completely happy.
Agreed that the stock jellybean leak is very well done, feels like vanilla jb with a few nice tweaks. Of course once we have recovery working there will be ROMs and kernels hehe
Do keep in mind that your SD card can not be used to install any apps on to it nor can it be used to install a game and then the game installs any extra data.
A working recovery is almost here guys. Hashcode is working his azz off to finish it right now!

Sent from my LG-P990 using xda app-developers app
the P990 is like heaven if you want to try custom roms
Even if you manage to brick it, just install a Stock-Rom with NVflash, and it is back alive in 95% of all brick-situations. The only way to destroy it is the hardware-side, like smacking it with a sledgehammer
Very large user base all over the world, and a wide bandwith of CustomRoms that run stable and nearly bugfree.
The official ICS-Stock-Rom is also running pretty good with it But if you ever used a custom rom, or tried one once, you never want to go back to stock on any device
When I ask about ICS is because I've seen some posts where users say that ICS update for this device comes with some bugs and that was worst than previous version.
But when I see all yours answers I believe that this is good phone and good choice.

If you get a locked phone, regardless of brand or carrier, it is easy to unlock - just identify the original carrier it was locked to, get the IMEI, submit that info plus $8 to cellunlocker.net, then boot the phone with any other SIM inside, and enter the code
Good job on getting the One X, great buy and way better than the P990... I like my P990 but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone in 2013, even those on a budget, since the better models from late 2011/early 2012 would be at a decent price by then.

I've bought it very cheap for that reason and for some small scratches. The only ones that i have some scare are in the front of the camera... the worst case scenario is i have to change the phone case, but i don't think this scratches affect pictures as they are in side and not in the middle.
So far very happy with it :victory:
Hi,
I got this phone after i sold my 3GS.I really enjoyed the extra core and the hdmi out(i even sold my htpc as i didnt need it anymore!)
but missed the smoothness and attention to detail of the ios.
Having said that it took me 5 days of reading to jailbreak the iphone and around 10 minutes to root the 2x.
I kept it stock because life is short and i didnt want to loose warranty.
I agree with the friend who said its a galaxy s2 class phone.I was considering the s2 ass well but the lg had a better bang for a buck at the time.
IMHO there is nothing wrong with it except for the never ending progress of technology,its just not top dog anymore.

the droid 4 is not avaiable outside of the USA, you have to buy it e.g. via ebay.
but pay attention, the phone may not work directly in your country / with your provider, so you'd have to GSM-patch it, but there are some good explanations here.
These phones suck anyway...save your money. Major software issues, locked boot loader.

JayH, then why do you post in this forum? If you don't like it, don't buy it.
The phone is definitely great if you can handle it, not the best and the newest, but it has the most awesome physical keyboard I ever used, and the support for the roms getting built is also very good. Thanks to safestrap, the locked bootloader isn't a downer. (at this point: THANK YOU HASHCODE).
There are good stable ROMs for this phone. Eclipse ICS + olegfusion's GSM patch or Olegfusion's version of the stock 217 ROM are the ones to go for if you want it to just work. The ports of Cyanogenmod etc. aren't quite there yet, though they are getting close.
There's also one in the dev section now that appears to be stock but with additional languages including Italian.
But yes you'll be needing to buy one from the USA. I got mine from Devices Now and would happily recommend them, especially since they will ship you the phone already upgraded to ICS which takes out most of the work of making it work on GSM.
I posted because I own one of these phones sadly... Hash has done a great job but you have to use up valuable memory to load custom roms due to the locked boot loader. I came from an HTC Evo 3D(sprint) to this phone and the HTC was far superior.

well, some people like it, some people dont.
I came from a Galaxy Note, but I was willing to take the burden of going to a lower screen resolution because of the very nice hardware keyboard.
I had the HTC Desire Z ( / G2) before my note and I'm very sad the leading manufacturers haven't found a way to make a good phone (maybe not as thin as others, but less bulky) with a full keyboard.
