I swap between my reZound and RAZR all the time. The micro sim actually stays in place really well with no adapter.
Not sure the mytouch will work though.
I've been using my unactivated Droid X2 just to try different ROMS on. After sbf'ing your asked to activate which obviously doesn't work if it's a unactivated phone. I remember seeing "how to bypass activation" questions at least twice on here so hopefully this helps someone.

Same steps work for Eclipse btw.
Nice find..thanks for sharing.

First, thanks for all of the help in rooting my Droid x2. Where I ended up was with 2.3.4 and the latest official update 45.621.10.MB810.Verizon.en.US. A few questions:
1. Should I update to 2.3.5?
2. If so, how do I do that? I understand that I may lose my root, which is concerning considering the trouble I had gaining it in the first place. (I have the update downloaded to my phone.)
Thank you in advance,
CheapDad

45.621.10 is for the Droid X not X2

Very little reason to update the Droid X2 to 2.3.5, there is no 2.3.5 for the Droid X

I purchased this phone from eBay and understood I was getting an x2. I only paid about $50, but did I get snickered on the model?
As a PS, I refreshed the firmware to be able to root. Is it possible I used the wrong firmware?
Snickered
Go to Settings/About Phone/Model number. It will say Droid X2 if it is one. $50 for a Droid X is too too much; for a Droid X2 you could have done better, I have been buying them for about $25.
The Droid X and the Droid X2 are getting dated. I rooted mine and tried all the roms (Liberty, Molten, Eclipse 2.3.5, CM7, CM10) All have their ups and downs. Eclipse was the best for me. I sold about 10 X2 phones on Ebay with CM10. It was a headache, flashed most of them back to Eclipse 2.3.5. Android 4.x (CM9, CM10) is problematic; Netflix doesn't work, video camera doesn't work, won't go into deep sleep. Eclipse is a solid rom.
Suggest if you were suppose to get a X2 and they gave you an X, complain to Ebay and get your money back. Go to Boost Mobile, port your number to get a new Moto G for FREE with a $40 Unlimited subscription for one month. After a month, decide if Boost is for you, if not, flash it to Verizon and used it on Page Plus or Straight Talk. FYI- Verizon's Moto G will not work on Page Plus.
I liked my Droid X2 but it was a lot of trouble getting it to where I liked it.

It is not possible to install wrong firmware.
If the phone has a camera button, it is a droid X, the X2 has no camera button.
Otherwise they are identical on the outside.
The droid x2 never really lived up to it's potential, software was always lacking, stock and custom.
