Eclipse question - Motorola Droid X2

Ok so I understand 2.3.4 is not supported on Eclipse. But I have read of numerouse people using 2.3.4 with it. I am wondering what your experiences have been and what issues there have been of any?

I ran Eclipse 2.0.2 on Gingerbread 2.3.4 for 4 or 5 days when it first came out. It ran fine. Not an ounce of trouble from it. The only reason I didn't stay was, well, I'm kind of a Liberty fan and went back to it.
At the time, I figured I didn't have anything to lose as long as I made a nandroid of my Liberty setup. In the end, I was right (at least in my short term use of it). Won't promise the same for you though. My guess is it'll be fine but there's no guarantees. You have to make the final call.

I guess my sign doesn't show up from my phone my bad. I'm running eclipse 1.1
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
Eclipse 1.1 is on 2.3.4. Did you make sure you sbf'd to 2.3.4 before you flashed to Eclipse 1.1? If not then you're still on 2.3.3 and that will be causing the error.
If you are already on 2.3.4,, why don't you try flashing Eclipse 1.3? That has a bunch of bug fixes. Also, there v2.0.2 that's for 2.3.5 if you want to try that.
Yeah Im on 2.3.4 that's what I first rooted on. I'm gonna try and SBF to 2.3.5 and run eclipse v2 this weekend. Hope all is stable with it. I had issues with 1.3 from Pandora and such and I've never sbfed so this should be fun lol

Interesting..I'm not sure why the bluetooth is giving you that problem. SBFing is super easy haha. I was nervous my first time and now its like second nature. There's a great guide in the development section.
If you're going to 2.3.5, make sure you follow the guide in the development forum so you don't miss any steps. Good luck!
Alright ill be sure to look them up. Hope eclipse 2.0.2 is amazing =)

Which ROM is number one?

Ok so I read about eclipse,molten,liberty,etc....but which ROM is the best I'm thinking about eclipse but just seems hard to apply, you know go to 2.3.5.then reroot which I wouldn't mind doing but can you guys tell me its it really smooth, for rite now I'm rooted, froze sum bloat, and I am supercharged...looking for friendly advice...
Sent from my DROID X2 using xda premium
I've used all three. My top two are molten and eclipse. Liberty needs to get updated (IMO), it needs to be fixed up a little. I've had only like 1 or 2 problems with eclipse and it's nothing major, I can live with them; Eclipse makes up for it with speed. I'm running the 2.3.4 eclipse. Too lazy to SBF and i love it. Otherwise, molten is a great choice as well. Its up to you.
My suggestion is to flash the SPEEDY V7 script and the build.prop. They really make the phone so much better.
Hope this helps =]

Is whatever YOU consider the best if fits your needs. What's best for you can be number 1,000,000 to other. These kind of threads are redundant and they don't really get to nowhere. Also is posted in the wrong section.
On that note, thread closed.

UGH, anyone else having a flash withdrawal?

I definitely need something to flash before I go crazy!
NOTE: this isn't a "what should I flash onto my phone now" type board, this is just a "I'm bored and realized I'm going crazy cause I don't have anything to flash."
by the way, I'm definitely not asking for any ETA's for any new roms.
Lol I know the feeling. My wife has a bionic and she finally let me root it and debloat it. But she will not let me put a custom rom on it. I so want to flash dhacker ICS on it I would put eclipse on it also but she is on. 902 and nitro is still working on the new version.
I switched back to my Samsung fascinate to cure my flash addiction.

haha, nice nice. i have many phones laying around but I definitely want to flash something on my daily driver (x2). I'm on CM7 right now and I'm really thinking of porting over a ROM and trying it out just so I can flash something to it..
I think i'm too impatient for my own good. :/
I know its dumb but I want to play with 2.3.6 no I don't have a Milestone, nor am I a developer just that freaking bored. The last flash I did was in a local Walmart. I scared a bunch of people Yelling OMG CM7 is Fking Awesome!!!! Tomorrow I will see if I need my old droid to get by till I unbrick, or not. LOL.... Something to do.

I am a courious person not sure why I know 2.3.5 & 2.3.6 files won't work. I actually want to poke around with the Atrix Port files to see if I can figure out what it will take to port it. I'm pretty good looking for different things that link a common denominator. Whether or not I can do it is a whole different story. I have never developed. But I have played around with the xml files with and without Hickups.
Smali and Java I have not tried yet I would like to try out of boredom. It would be cool to drop down toggles built in for an app that can be changed out for another. Like I said Just Bored thats all. Probably long run I will defiantly crash and brick.

How sad is this? I was on cm7 and then sbf'd to stock 2.3.4. Things didn't run too bad, but then I couldn't stand it anymore. It just felt...dirty.
So I nandroided back to cm7. I feel guilty, like I was cheating.

haha, I definitely thought of that, but I also thought of taking 2nd-init and stripping away blur to make a total vanilla GB stock rom...
I wonder if I can do that with Mastafunk's (I think that's who made it) Naked ROM that was based off of 2.3.4. hmm..
I was running CM7 and installed miui on top. Didn't really like miui but restoring CM7 backup seemed like cheating. So I installed CM7 on top of miui. CM7 on top of miui on top of CM7. Interesting.

Seriously, you'd work on explaining SBF to your wife? I don't think I'd dare try it. ~Certainly not my MOTHER~! I don't like messing with other peoples stuff, then I'm responsable for it. You were the last one to touch it!
Dropped off a VCR/DVD combo to my Aunt's house a month ago. Waiting till the first time they go to use it and can't watch TV after... it'll be my fault. lol
Well we're in the brink of two really great ROMS. Dragonzkiller is working on CM9 and Ace is get close to releasing a new MIUI beta. From the looks of Ace's twitter it should be here very soon

Best & Most Stable ROM?

Like the title says...
What is the most stable & lag free ROM out there for X2? I'm on Eclipse 2.1 & this wifi problem is killing me softly. I was on CM7 but I kept getting problems with it.
If you have a ROM w/ a certain version of it that you'll suggest, I'm all ears.
In what problem did u have with cm7? If ur willing to go back I'm sure we can help solve them, unless u mean HDMI.
Sent from my MB870 using Xparent Cyan Tapatalk 2
im looking into romming too and was wondering the same thing. I want a rom that is glitch free.
I don't really have any problems with CM7 other than wifi can take a while to connect...you may have to toggle it off and back on to get it to connect. I have not recently had any issues with it staying connected. I can't think of any other issues I've had. My wife has a DX2 stock and I used it for about 5 minutes today....that's enough to drive me crazy
Quick Note....Search bar. This topic has been raised twice in the past month.
But while I'm here I might as well put into it... I've been on CM7, MIUI, Molten and Eclipse and Eclipse is hands down the best. I don't know that bugs actually exist on this rom. Miui has seriously video issues, Molten isn't up to snuff over all, Cm7 is solid but the wifi connection is what turned me away, it is annoying as he'll even with the wifi fix scripts. Eclipse doesn't have a single on of these problems. Not one.

When I was on CM7, when I reboot it gets stuck at the boot screen at times. Followed all directions to the letter & i had a wifi problem also like some ppl had. that's what drove me away
Are you sure you are on the correct android build? Cm7 is fairly stable but it foes have its share of issues, none major by any means though. I would say eclipse is the most stable for the x2, and that's comming from a guy who runs cm7. Double check that you are on 2.3.5 for eclipse and not 2.3.4.

I finally dumped cm7 after three months of the wifi disconnects. Aside from that it's my favorite. I'm running eclipse 2.1 and it is solid, zero wifi problems sooooo happy about that. I do miss some of the cm7 features (long press pull down widget, swipe away notifies, lock screen options, overall customization). So far I'm sticking with eclipse 2.1.

Those are all definite benefits of cm7 especially the lockscreen for me...that was a huge thing that I liked about cm7. I do agree though that eclipse 2.1 is the most stable overall...do wish it was completely aosp but it is what it is I suppose huh

Kinda makes you wonder why the /418 ud has the same kernel as /413 & not the popular /412?
Also my Mx2 port won't work w/o /413.
edit This may have come about cuz the /412 has kernel 00007 & /413 has 00008.
Eclipse 1.3 was very stable in every way. Does not have all the goodies in 2.1 but is very stable. Cm7 is good also with a little massaging lol

Yes, I've checked my version it says 2.3.7
CadenH is referring to your kernel. It is from a particular blur rom & unalterable.
So for example if the rom wants you on 234 leak . Your kernel will be ...00005... & the rom replaces all but that & other locked partitions.
Has anyone heard/know of a fix for the LP icon changing in the MIUI ROM, I would say by far that the MIUI ROM has the most features and by far is the sexiest and one of the better ROM's out there. I am brand new to Android and have been in the iPhone Modding world for too long.
Once I get these files systems figured out and learn a little bit more, Ill be building and tweaking ROMs for the DX2

[Q] Rooting Droid X2

Hey guys,
So I'm probably asking the everyday question but I've rooted in the past (my Droid X) but I eventually get a free replacement which turned into a Droid X2. I'm currently running 2.3.5, un-rooted.
Can someone point me to a tutorial to root it so I can toss on CM9 or another ROM (unfortunately new Alpha JB ROMs it looks like for X2). All of the tutorials I saw say 2.3.4 or earlier.
Thanks guys - sorry for typical dumb question.

So, I rooted my DX2 and flashed it with Eclipse 2.3. Do I need to do anything else, or is the assumption that there won't be any more OTAs for the DX2, hence no need for preserving root etc?

Yup, your work is done. Enjoy your rom. Moto has long moved on and is no longer supporting this device. If there is another update you can restore root and accept it but more than likely it will lock your phone from being rooted again so you won't want it anyway. Moto will not remove blur software which is the root of the issues on this phone. With their razr series phones they have revamped their os and stopped calling it blur and they have made it clear that this phone isn't getting ics so.. It's safe to say that no other developments are happening on this phone.

No more updates for us. Our phone is done for in the eyes of Motorola. So if you are up and running, you are good. Just remember that if you ever want to try any of the other ROMs we have, you need to get back onto 2.3.4. Thats the only thing I dont like about Eclipse. Its the only one on 2.3.5.

While I'm completely new to rooting/Rom flashing and smartphone hacking in general, I have spent countless hours of studying and reading up on this forum and others about hacking my Droid X2. Then, it took me additional days and weeks to work up the courage to jump in the cold water and actually do it. Why did I do it? Because my X2 on stock ROM/Blur and 60 apps was coming to a near crawl.
Anyway, to make a long story short: I think at this point, I'm more comfortable with Eclipse than any of the CM ROMs, purely based on what I've read about the current outstanding CM issues on the DX2.

CM9 is more problematic since we have a locked bootloader. Which means we cant run it on a kernel its supposed to run on, so its still stuck on a gingerbread kernel. CM7, however, is still based on the Droid X2's default kernel. So it doesnt have all the problems that the Ice Cream Sandwich based ROMs have. People say they have wifi issues with CM7 but I have never experience them when I was on it. Trust me though, eventually, curiosity will get the better of you and you will want to try out other ROMs. lol
Cm isnt the issue its the kernal that causes our ICS woes, cm7 is my daily driver 8o% of the time
Please don't post questions in the General section
