Do you think this will ever get cracked? I'm almost at my 30 trial ending. And if its not looking possible them I would like to exchange for the incredible.
I can tell you it isn't going to be hacked in 30 days. The milestone has been out for how long and it still isn't hacked.
You can send me your DX
Nick - I have both right now trying to decide. Do you have any questions? Happy to help if I can. I started with the inc and now I'm trying the X. I think I'm going to stick with the X

If you think getting custom ROMs on this phone will be possible before you're of retirement age why don't you ask a Milestone owner how they like CM6?
i was going to till full root/rom's etc befoe i got my x. i am glad i did not. for now i am happy with at least being able
to remove bloat. i am sure the best people are working on it right now. even with being limited to what i can do with this phone, i am happier with it than i was with the dinc.

So a lot of people here have programming skills right?
Would it be possible to develop a [email protected] type of program ([email protected]) which could brute force the bootloader encryption? I would GLADLY participate.
I'm sure there are some clues from previous devices or looking at this one which would reduce the amount to look for.
Might be impossible but I wish somebody would do the math on it, with say 1000 computers, how long could it take min/max?
I sent back an HTC Incredible for the X because it's obviously a superior device, but I've been reading through the HTC Incr forums and am questioning my decision to switch. The HTC apps (light, etc), 2.2 already, and no encrypted bootloader bs. I really hope the droid X gets unlocked, and soon. It's like buying a car but they weld the hood shut so you can't mess with the engine then saying, "We do that because you might mess it up" even after you inform them that, "I own it!?!?". There is no legal reason to lock the bootloader, no intellectual property to be given away. And reason #1, it goes against the principals of open source and takes away KEY features of android. Google Android devices potential can only be realized once the developer community tinkers, optimizes, destroys, and reinvents the phone and its contents, this amazing process won't happen with the Motorola Droid X because of its bootloader lock, and that's sad.
My humble opinion: Google (excellent reputation), Motorola (decent reputation), fix this with GOOD press, First page on all android sites shows "uggggg, Motorola locked up their new device". seriously Motorola, you KNEW this was not going to be well received by your customers.
Oh yeah, good news for the Droid X. Saw somewhere where somebody talked to some verizon store staff (reliable source, i know, hah) who said that the X was planned to come with Froyo, but was rushed a month early (because of the HTC Inc delays, which were very real) and forced to throw together 'blur' for 2.1. Whether this is true or not is a toss up, but I sure do hope so. I just don't see why this wasn't publicized. Can't wait for this 2.1 virus to get off my machine (kiddin').
Come to think about it, Motorola's 2.2 might blow our socks off, and could even potentially unlock the damn bootloader, damn I'm tired of saying bootloader.
I love this idea. Can you start a new thread on it?!
If it was that easy and you'd just have to gather a few PCs together to brute force the encryption, we would have decrypted Playstation 3s and Milestones today. Sadly, it's not that easy if the key is 128 Bit long or so.
And I'm also doubtful that Motorola will just give in. The omission of the WiFi-Teather function in the Droid's Froyo Update as well as the soon-to-be-released Droid 2 that has this feature and the locking of the bootloader on the Milestone with absolute disregard to all people complaining about it - even going so far as to tell them to buy HTC phones - shows that Motorola doesn't even want us "advanced users" as customers.
5 Dollars says HTC starts doing the same sooner or later.
I wouldn't be too surprised if it'd happen, either. Still, they don't use TI-OMAP-Processors with their cool (read: horrible) "High Security" mode. So it'll be a lot harder for them to pull something like this off.
Imo it is more up to the carrier. T mobile seems really lax about rooting and custom roms. While all verizon android phone have been fairly locked down. Except the droid one. But even the eris and incredible by htc were tough to crack.
I think verizon doesn't want people messing up there phones and exchanging them as well as all the bandwith from tethering. They charge 20$ a month the tether so obviously they have an interest in not wanting you to get that functionality for free.

That just begs the question as to why the Milestone is locked down, which isn't even exclusive to any provider as far as I know.
And forcing people to use the free option (root + WiFi-Teather) instead of a payed option (Froyo-Teather) doesn't make sense if they want to gain extra money.

My goal is that if this project would take 2 months, that means we will have the bootloader key by the first of october, which would be GREAT.
If I were going to require signatures, I'd go with public/private keys with a far greater length...
I could be talking out my wazoo here because I am not an Android developer, but it would seem to make more sense to use 1024 or 2048bit RSA keys for the signing...
EDIT: Additionally, has Motorola actually encrypted anything, or are they just requiring a valid signature on the software that is to be booted and the public key is used to verify the signature made by the private key?

The keys are almost definitely 2048bit, a 128bit key would be cracked in a matter of hours. I'm going to be getting an X in the mail in a few days, so we'll be taking a look at ways to get around the bootloader signing.

I have lots of respect for the unrevoked team, please kee us informed and let me know if there's anything i can do to speed this up (i guess we should wait for froyo first)
Ok, i 'think' i've located the eFuse chip, any chance of bricking my phone if i physically remove it? Alright, took the chip out, how do i know if its unlocked?
Excuse my ignorance but is the eFuse thing the source of all these problems or is it unrelated
Also, read something about the new encrypted processors, it said one possible way to crack them could possibly involve heating up the chip hoping to get some useful faults or something to that effect.
Sounds like a good time let's get all our built computers and have a bbq android meet and crack this thing.

Have you ever owned an HTC Eris? That thing took over 7 months to crack. The only reason they had root was because a rooted update "leaked" into their hands.
HTC's are already locked down. Pretty damn good.
It seems that a lot of people think that situation with DROID X being locked is somewhat new.
It is, in fact, not.
That is one of the official Motorola rep posts that summarises situation pretty well: http://community.developer.motorola...OMs-and-Motorola-s-Android-Handsets/ba-p/4224
In short - Motorola always dedicated significant time & money investment to signature lock their Linux kernel-based phones. They did it for several years, even before they started producing Android phones (they started using Linux kernel even before that). Since significant investment was spend into that, they will not just "unlock" it any time soon - because the management person who will have to make that decision will essentially have to take responsibility for all previous time & money spent just have to be thrown away. I dont see this realistically happen.
Also people fail to realise that it was DROID that was an exception for being unlocked, not the other way (confirmed by Motorola),- and Motorola will do anything in their power to prevent this exception from happening ever again.
Now about "cracking the bootloader". Recent OMAP platform that Motorola uses implements almost full TPM-hardware security model. It was not designed by stupid people, and, since it's a hardware security, it will have to be cracked on hardware level - unless some stupid vulnerability will be found at the very root of trust chain (and this is very unlikely, since root is hardware-based, and it's security-polished to perfection). Another possible attack is if private key will be stolen/leak somehow - very unlikely (but higher probability then cracking 2048-bit RSA encryption used anyway )
To prevent yourself from suggesting stuff that was long tried before, you really should familiarize yourself with this wiki, mainly dedicated to attempts of bypassing Motorola kernel security - http://and-developers.com/
There is a nicely classified database of attack tried, and why they didn't work.
Okay gang - here's a twist for you...
On the Nook Facebook page, they posted this on March 24th:
You asked, we listened. This spring, use your NOOK Color to send e-mail and explore popular apps like Angry Birds, Drawing Pad, Lonely Planet Phrasebooks, and Wine PhD. Stay tuned here for news about these exciting new features and when the firmware update will be ready. (P.S. Yes! We said Angry Birds!) What apps would you love to see on your NOOK Color?
Now - go take a gander at Drawing Pad - the minimum is Android 3.0.
Hmmmmm.....
Very, very unlikely. The Nook does not meet the hardware requirements mandated by Google.

Honeycomb isn't really ready at this point (Xoom aside). It's been announced several times that the update will be Froyo, although Gingerbread would be nice (but there is always CM7 for that).
the B&N update may just be 2.1
On Apr 6, BN posted this on the Nook developer site:
"What version of Android is supported for development?
Simon Walker posted this on Apr-06 18:43
Your application should be optimized for Google Android SDK Platform 2.1 API 7"
This would imply that the update is a most likely a patch with a very restrictive BN apps market.
However, some very smart guys on XDA think that it's 2.2.

the reason why people believe it to be 2.2 is because b&n have announced that it will have flash support along with the b&n market.

Windows Blue is the next big update wave across Microsoft's assets including Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8. It's expected during summer/fall of 2013 (I'd guess rather fall).
Until then I suspect that we will see another smaller update bringing CardDAV/CalDAV support as it seems Microsoft is working on it after Google anounced to cut EAS support in GMail and that after Microsoft intervened Google pushed back the cut off date to July. That's all based on what little information we have.
The whole IT industry seems to have moved to a model of not giving us exact information on roadmaps so no one can give you a definitive answer.

I hope more OEMs take this route, just makes CRM seem like it is truly taken seriously in this industry, which is what I have been wishing for many years now.
tk is legit.
also here a suggestion for samsung rather than the samsung note 4 team (if you know anyone at a higher level) :
you have 5 (or is it 6?) versions of knox like you have fifty different phones. you should have one samsung knox with all the enterprisey stuff included and consolidate it all into two pricing models - below 250 seats free, above 250 seats pay per seat. it would make things easier rather than trying to chose between myknox, knox express, knox premium, knox entrpise, knox government etc. etc. they all have the same basic functionality - why not just combine them ? sometimes even your knox guys have no idea what they are doing (e.g. knox express for small businesses has DoD CAC functionality from knox government enabled), so just have one knox for everyone.
also: another note 4 suggestion - support for RAW camera saves with no processing done. in stock camera app.

Would you like me to post the email communication that I've had with the engineers regarding your inquiry?

You don't have anything to do with cell providors like Tmobile? You are strictly Samsung. Are those updates engineered Internationally or here in the USA since I see you are from Georgia? Just curious. Thank man.
My wishlist:
1. Bring s voice back to alarm (stop, snooze)
2. Ability to re-map Recent Apps softkey button as an option button.

That would be great if you don't mind it will help put my mind at ease.
I hope more OEMs take this route, just makes CRM seem like it is truly taken seriously in this industry, which is what I have been wishing for many years now.

I work strictly for Samsung and T-Mobile is currently my cell service provider. Updates are engineered for all devices including all carrier variants. What I am doing on this forum is gathering information about the userbase and their wants/needs. After a week, the "base" update will be created remotely using our proprietary software by 12 software engineers from each region. "base" update is an update that can be installed on any Samsung devices carrying the same prefixes.
I am currently in Atlanta, GA working and collaborating with the engineers remotely.

Awesome
Thanks a lot man, again apologies if I was rude.
Finally feel like we are part of the development of our phones, the sad part? I can't think of anything else I'd like to see done, lol.
Thanks again!

tk is legit.
also here a suggestion for samsung rather than the samsung note 4 team (if you know anyone at a higher level) :
you have 5 (or is it 6?) versions of knox like you have fifty different phones. you should have one samsung knox with all the enterprisey stuff included and consolidate it all into two pricing models - below 250 seats free, above 250 seats pay per seat. it would make things easier rather than trying to chose between myknox, knox express, knox premium, knox entrpise, knox government etc. etc. they all have the same basic functionality - why not just combine them ? sometimes even your knox guys have no idea what they are doing (e.g. knox express for small businesses has DoD CAC functionality from knox government enabled), so just have one knox for everyone.
also: another note 4 suggestion - support for RAW camera saves with no processing done. in stock camera app.

Thank you for your kind suggestion! I have forwarded the details to our KNOX level 3 customer retention department.
RAW functionality is currently under extensive testing. The image processor currently in the Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 variant of the Note 4 is encountering delay issues while using RAW image when taking pictures. I'll update you on this as soon as I receive more information.

please please enable on exynos versions since i have a 910U.
also 2 more suggestions - neither of them from me but from other people i know who own note 4s - but which may not be possible -
1. Good help manual on the phone itself. Help manuals are available to download but a good help manual when you boot up the phone (preferably as a continuously updated app as the device is updated or a pdf in the current language of the phone which gets downloaded on language selection or something). But it should have a nice standard question mark help icon which i can click on to read about all the features on the phone.
2. Simple one click backup/restore to PC tool wirelessly. (Background : This person used to use a Nokia phone which had a one click tool (ovi?) on the PC which downloaded wirelessly the phone, all its apps, all its settings and all files on all SD/internal storage into directories on the PC. I know kies cant do that without root for the app settings and files. This would also be useful to me if it backed up the knox container in encrypted form and could restore it).
