Im looking for a Rom that is as similar to stock as possible with WiFi tethering available. I'm doing this for a friend and I don't know much about the droid x2. I am experienced with HTC phones though so I'm not a noob.

Eclipse is the most stable rom out there with some blur components (stock).

If all that you are looking for is the wifi tethering you can simply root and install the .apk

I tried that with stock Rom and it errors out saying the kernel doesn't support it. The phone is stock 2.3.4. I just downloaded CM7.2 for it and am going to install that to the device pretty soon. I have been taking things slow to make sure I do everything correctly because this is much more difficult to do than my droid incredible 2.

You can try that, but that is SO far left from stock ROM since there is no BLUR in it and all the apps are AOSP.
Also, HDMI doesn't work under CM7, so if you still want that, you won't have it. It's still a great ROM and it's pretty darned fast, but it does still have some issues with apps hanging once in awhile. Otherwise, it's not a bad ROM at all, especially since it was just released a few weeks ago.
I don't have much choice considering there aren't any roms that close to stock. I've had experience with CM7 roms so I know some of the issues that will rise with its use. I was trying to avoid using the 2.3.5 sbf and rerooting to use eclipse.

It's as close to stock as you can get without being stock. It is itself a 2.3.4 rom, so if you are on rooted 2.3.4 now then download, flash, reroot and enjoy.

I will have to reroot after I flash it? If so Im not going to be able to do that right now. I'm returning the phone today and I won't have time to take it home to my comp so I can root it again. A link to the page would be nice to if you don't mind.

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.
Sent from my DROID X2
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.

My DX2 is rooted on 2.2.2 and at least twice a day there's an update thing that pops up in order to update to 1.3.232 and I can either install it now or postpone it. I've been postponing it for a while now. I was just wondering if I try to update it, will the phone be fine. Will my root access just go away and the phone will be updated? Sorry if this question has been asked already. I looked around, but couldn't find anything about it.

Just accept it, what's the worse that can happen? You have to SBF? Doubt it. You'll probably have an unusable SU icon in your drawer, but the 1-click root will fix that up.

yeah make sure everything is unfrozen. If you deleted apps you'll have to SBF. Which at that point you could just SBF to GB and avoid the OTA all together.

Yes, it will update with root but you will then lose root. But all you have to do after that is use the one cluck root method. I would make a nandroid. Backup after that so it will save you time if you start flashing ROMS and need to restore again.
I don't even care about having root access anymore. I just wanna update, but it still fails even after unfreezing all the frozen apps I had:/

You must have a few tiny changes still there that you forgot about. This is what happened to me on my og DROID. Just sbf P3's rooted gingerbread and you will be set. If you need help with sbf there is like 5 threads on it on this forum.

Yeah, root sometimes does some tricky stuff with your phone. And it isn't all that complicated to sbf, download the files plug your phone in and click start and your done. Its super easy.

And um I think you can go into your build.prop and change your forward facing android version, so it tricks the phone into thinking it doesn't need to update. That is if you want to stay on froyo, look around on google if you want to go this route.

Here's my dilemma, I just went out and bought myself a Motorola milestone x2 which I have through a local provider. I believe this phone is the same if not very similar to the Droid x2. My problem is the fact I got it with the android version 2.3.5 and can't root with any sort of one click root off my computer. The plan is to sbf back to android version 2.2 or 2.3.3 but am not sure if I can use the Droid x2 files contained on this site and don't wanna turn the phone into an expensive paperweight so any input would be great. I've search for earlier versions of the milestone x2 but only can find phones w a slide out keyboard n don't wanna chance it.

I would try to find specific files for that phone. There seem to be significant differences between the Milestone and the X2. I would check over at androidforums.com, they have a few milestone forums, but nothing for "milestone x2." Can't quite find that phone anywhere actually. I'm almost 100% that the x2 sbf file won't work properly if you flash it on that phone.
Thats odd..I had the choice between this and the htc merge...went with this because of the duel core, 1ghz processor and bigger screen..plus I had some problems with htc phones in the past. I wouldn't have figured this would be so difficult to root

To the op: could you post a screen shot of your system version thru build # on the about phone screen in portrait mode(or post the equivalent)? It could be you could try update.zipping the latest 1.3.413 of 235 found here in the "cheesecake" thread. You would do it from stock recovery and if it let you do it it might be the safest venture. Not recommending it as yet though.

Just post in the OPs that its for the Milestone x2 and one of the guys will index it for you in the stickies. Also, PM me when you get it rooted, and flash another rom. I need to see if something changes if you dont mind.

If it can work without Safestrap, it also can work as 2nd-System in BootMenu.
I will try this tonight but i need help. I have become fairly familiar with the RAZR. I came from an inc which i loved. The only sd i have is from the inc and its only 2gigs.

R3Ds Themes
Battery and 1% charge hack
After spending more than 12 hours I managed to install ICS leak 6.14.79 and than followed the steps precisely got R3DS Rom into my phone and was very happy at first but as soon I installed and set GO Launcher EX act by default instead of HomeScreen and shut my phone down waited for 30 seconds and then turn the phone back on I was unable to statr phone sucessfuly, just was getting icomplete lock screnn and toching buttons did nothing. So i ended up using DroidRazrUtility 1.7 to get Gingerbread back on and then installed ICS 6.16,211 in recovery modr from external SD card. So now to my question: Is anyway possible to have battery you have in post #2 (battery #2 is my favorite) plus 1% charge into system I already have without installing separate app from the Market since it can't replace system icon but adds own one?
Thanks

I don't believe so, as I'm fairly certain it needs to be deodexed to work, which stock would not be. I could be throwing around false information, though.
I have a noob question of my own; is it possible to flash this from the OTA ICS update or must it be done from the leaked updates?
