I really think they will have everything in there, no reason not to really. I'm sure this is going to be an exciting week this week, even more exciting than the week we got both unlocked BL and root.
Calling all DEVS??? lol

I ran it over night and had real problems charging it and getting into recovery. After the millionth time trying to get into recovery (every method known to man) I luckily got in and haven't looked back since. If I bricked my $500 phone, my wife might make me eat it for a new one lol.

Wanna help make your phone better.

Even if you have no coding experience at all, you can help. Testing is the easiest way to help. There are millions of lines of code and ways to set up these phones. Testing is the most important part of the development process. Without testers bugs will roam free. There are two separate major test categories, kernels and roms. Then minor testing such as mods/themes/etc. Kernels are the brains of the phone. Roms is the body. Both need to be tested and both need to be improved. When you test please do more than just quadrant. Make specific repeatable comments that will help some one fix the issue. Thanks and happy testing

I do have a project i want tested. On the razr forum there is a project call debtop. Can someone flash my newest hardvfp kernel and test debtop on the photon. I believe i got the kernel to support it.
Edit gentop not debtop
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
Ok - I'd love to help, but I'm not sure what your kernel is or the gentop is? I've rooted my phone, messed with a few simple things here and there, but other than that - I'm still learning. I did install a custom ROM on my old Hero, but I haven't messed with the Photon.
I do have time though - I work a lot of night shifts and if shown how to do something, I learn it quickly! If I can be any help, message me and I'll do what I can to help out!
I gotcha bubb. I'm in a 4G area if you you are still working on the bootloader
Hell I will even let you remote control my computer. Just don't go into the folder that says mmmm lol
No need. I actually know how to install a 64 bit operating system. Lol. Im slowly working on it. Its not a bootloader problem. Motorolas official engineering phones with real unlocked factory bootloaders dont have 4g. So obviously we gotta look elsewhere. Its possibly recovery related or some form of security check. Once we find exactly what it we can fix it. The best way is to dd everything. Like dd / lol. Once with stock, then after unlock only then recovey change. Once all three is pulled. Someone needs to run a diff, or physically cross check everything, eek. Once the culprit is found we will squash it. so obviously you can see this will be time consuming. Way more time then I ever get. I would have to take a vacation just to get that kind of time. I can do the squashing after the fact but atm im stuck trying to blindly fix it

Okay this is to everyone wanting to help. Find me cool patches. Remember your looking for arm no neon stuff the kernel is 2.6.32.9(kinda). I might update to .50 if I can ever find those patches. Most stuff I can manually patch and do, but 2.6.32.* patches are huge and I need .patch's to do that. If you find kernels from other phones with cool stuff please make sure they actually post source. A bfs 400+ patch for 2.6.32.9 would be awesome, so would proper autogroups. Post findings here.
Thanks and happy hunting

I'm not a programmer but I would like to help if I can. Picked up my MoPho 3 weeks ago, rooted it, and did a couple buildprop tweaks but nothing else. Haven't unlocked it yet, either. I would like to flash a different rom and/or kernel but want to do more reading first. I also need to get the right sbf and such, too. Currently system version 45.3.6.MB855.sprint.en.us; Android 2.3.4; Baseband N_01.28.07R; Webtop WT-1.2.0-160; Kernel [email protected] #2; Build 4.5.1A-1SUN-198.6

Not sure if I can say much on here but try to move the signal to Verizon.
I saw on the zumocast advert on the motorola website the photon was sporting the LTE icon. Maybe a minor error with one of the artists or maybe a hint...

That should literally minutes for them to write a script that should work in recovery, IF the old one didn't work, which it might. You will still be able to unlock the bootloader, I think people forget that with a OEM unlockable bootloader, there is no cat and mouse game necessary.

Won't mean much for this phone since it doesn't have a functioning AOSP RIL.

Well if you mean towards jelly bean, yes and no. I don't think we can get aosp jb as their wont be a kernel for it. I think since JB is closely related to ICs versus the big difference between GB and ICS that it wont be as hard to go from one to the other
Correct me if I am wrong here. Trying to answer based on what I skim and read.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
Actually yes, Chad is working on the kernel/RIL issue. I talked to Dmaedows on twitter informed him of it, it was the first he heard of Chad's working on it. Tweeted back later, it seems the two are going to work together, or at the very least Dmeadows is going to merge his fixes with Chad to make something useable.
But as always, remain cautiously optimistic, no promises.
http://www.twitlonger.com/show/i7dae2
I doubt we'll get a fully working JB port any time soon, few months at best.
Last I read on the ICS RIL was the kernel source was needed so we are stuck waiting for the update to be release and the source to be posted on HTC's dev site shortly afterwards...
No idea if that's truly the hold up, just something I saw awhile back.
guys yes rils are done. Currently waiting on kernel source to do anything.

If you could donate amaze phone who would you give it too? Dev names?
Also be somebody that you think wants to help us and not just receive a phone just bc.

I have a few guys in kind but not of the Amaze era.
adlx, br3ttu, ngiordano and HandlerExploit (but he goes by a different name now.)
I sent my spare phone temporarily to a dev a few months ago, and I doubt there's gonna be anything from it, I haven't heard that he's done anything, so I feel like that was a bust.
I doubt I'd send it out to anyone else, not worth it, but at least he and I tried.
I'm in a similar position except that my phones screen is badly cracked. The keyboard doesn't come up to unlock at first boot and idk if it had usb debugging enabled so that I can mess with it. Phone is stock. So I figured if a dev receives it shouldn't be a problem bc I dont have the time to s off and so on
If your talking about sandvold well idk of him except what ever updates he's been letting us know on that thread so I'm hoping for that.
I'm looking for someone that can get us data and sense 4 / aosp. Team virtuous did it for the desire hd, and team blackout did to. Other than that I was thinking show-p for kernels as well.
Our forums development seems to have reached a halt. No offense sports and eclipse ziggy craig others but I think we've reached our limit as to what we can do with what we have. It seems now were just throwing different launchers on top. I don't have the time to help but maybe I can donate/ sell a phone to someone who can.

It'll be on its way back soon, the guy was cool about it, it just didn't work out. I won't say any names though, no point.
But to everyone though you've gotta understand concerning the lack of dev at the moment, the only devs we've got currently are young and are in school, so considering school just started again, you've got to give them some time to settle, and if they have time I'm sure they'll get something going. School is way more of a prioroty then putting out a rom, so I say be happy with, and make the most of, what we've got at the moment.
