@clockworkmod: If you want a D3/DX2 bootstrap, let me borrow me a phone!
Shared via TweetCaster
Oh This Is Too Cool, I Knew It.
Good to hear. I mean its nice to have one now, but one that's specificly for our for phone & not a patchup from another phone would be great. Even better if we wouldn't have to plug it in every time you wanna flash something
The one on this forum works for me. you might not be able to pass it which file to update to while into android, but i got eclipse installed without an SD card. Tryin to find a reason to believe in the x2 instead of my bolt. worked nicely. The one click root on droid-life for moto devices works like a charm too. had to use that instead of gingerbreak like the thread specifies.
Awesome news!

I'm confused as to how this works.
I originally had the MOTODX2 Bootstrap Signed apk installed which requires you to ensure the X2 is plugged into a wall outlet to boot into a recovery menu.
I just purchased Rom Mananger and saw that there was a Clockworkmod recovery for X2, so I downloaded it, but how do I get into it? I can only get into the MOTODX2 Bootstrap recovery menu. Or, is that what the Clockwork Mod is?
I'm usually adept in doing these things (I had no problem with my LG Vortex). However, I don' t know exactly what the purpose of the Clockworkmod Recovery is versus the MOTODX2 Bootstrap recovery I have. Anything? How to do I boot my X2 into the Clockworkmod Recovery?
Thanks!

And, is there a way to boot INTO the Clockworkmod recovery? I can't seem to find a way to do it on the X2.
Any help would be appreciated.

I don't think MIUI is available for the X2. Check the X2 development forums. The SBF thread in particular. The answer yo your questions are there.

I think the naming conventions of Droid's has caused a lot of confusion. Many things have been released for the Droid X and the Droid 2 at the same time, leading people to post about updates to the Droid X/2, which in fact is not the Droid X2.
I know MIUI is available, it is on ROM manager on my X2. And I found out about the imminent GB update on the X2 general forum.
So unless there are a lot more people than me "confused" by the names of Motorolas Phones, than I think it is probably true that GB will be here as a 2.3.4 build soon enough. I think that is why not much development has been done on this phone, why develop on Froyo when GB comes out so soon?

I haven't heard of any X2 owner using ROM Manager. A far as I can tell, to date, there are only derivatives of that chinese ROM floating around. I would research more before you flash whatever you see in ROM Manager. Unless you are skilled enough to un-brick your phone.
But hey... Let me know how that works out for you.

Rom manager its probably seeing your phone as the atrix. You don't want to download a rom for the atrix, it will not work and you will be forced to sbf back to stock. There is currently only one rom fire the x2 and at least 3 others in the works.

Actually it doesn't. We kinda have to work around a few of the flaws that our recovery has to get it to work "properly." If we ever got CWR, we'd have a bit easier time flashing ROMs. Plus, it's built a lot better, and is more stable.
I have it. However, If the phone is powered down, when I plug it in it boots into recovery. Turn off the phone while plugged in, and it reboots into recovery. Other than that little irritation, it works great.
"You have it' is that system recovery? On a X2? The std one?
Or do you mean the Bionic version?

Maybe as you are a dev you know things I don't, but to say an official version is more stable when it doesn't exist is a stretch. The only drawback is having to plug it in. I've never had any issues flashing anything so from a USER standpoint it is fine. Your post also fails to address the original post which should probably just be answered with a 'dont use cwm unless it is the one for your phone.'

I said IF we get one. From a dev standpoint, it's a little difficult to work with. We can't use all the update script commands we want, for example. Also, ADB is broke from the recovery side, so if we did want to do something manually before/after flashing, we can't.
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
The current recovery for X2 is flawed. If I want to install a new ROM and a wipe is required, once that wipe is complete entering CWM is NOT an option. The recovery apk must be reinstalled to enter CWM. This is a problem if the ROM doesn't properly install, leaving the user high and dry. Only option is to enter stock recovery which is limited.
It's 3:05am in NC and as I was getting ready to leave work in go to check for the update in About phone and it is a available now. I have to unfreeze, remove scripts, and backup my phone then I will let the update install. Just thought I would mention that the OTA update has started. I am not in the soak test either.

Got the update last night when I went to bed at 12am. Since I just got the phone two days ago, I was only rooted on 2.3.3 with nothing else done to it. It updated no problems, but I had to re-root after the install was done. Only things I've noticed so far is that everything seems a lot laggier than before. I still need to install recovery and debloat though. I hope that will help.
I'm trying to use Rom Manager Premium to install ClockWorkMod. It down loads successfully, but then never installs. This is with a rooted Droid X2. Has anyone seen this problem and found a solution to get the install to work?

I've always appreciated having the option of rebooting into recovery on the "phone options" when powering off. Typically if I have already used the dx2 bootstrap into recovery previously I can just power down when im plugged in and ill reboot into cwm...and my old dx and other phones I've seen have it typically. Pretty sure its doable.
So if anyones up for adding it to your list of things to do id be extatic.
Thx in advance.
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
We don't have an official bsr. In order for the reboot recovery to work, i think the script calls for Koush's signature, or something like that, and our recovery doesn't have the proper sig. Not only is it a hacked up recovery, it's an ancient one. I don't see recovery ever being added, unfortunately.
Oh, btw, wrong forum.
Sent from my DROID X2 using xda premium
Xodus is correct.
We were all excited for a while when koush got an x2 bout a month or two ago thinking we would finally get a "real" x2 recovery option. Its a little frustrating to see almost EVERY moto phone except for us have that option. And the only "real"x2 difference between our phone and others is our tegra2. I can't see that being the reason we can't get this option. It Has GOT to be doable if someone would just put the work/time into creating it.
Well, don't they have one for the Xoom? We need to see if we can port some of the Xoom hacks. The only difference REALLY are honeycomb and the screen size(right?).

Logic seems airtight. I mean, if you can push the button in System Recovery and it'll boot to charge mode or recovery mode then why can't the same commands used to perform that action be used as a reboot recovery option. I'm no dev. I would imagine if it was that easy, it would've been done by now.
"Reboot widget" from the market is a good alternative for now....

Seems to me the charge mode is the weakest link in the chain. The normal boot sequence is dependent on encryption and system checks, the battery animation doesn't require so much security. It would make sense to me, after reading the cvpcs blog about 2nd init, they could use 2nd init to hijack normal boot, but that sounds like a total pain in the ass.
