is there a way i can retain 4g and use cybiks cm7?
i dont like blur, plain and simple, but i like cm7 and would like to use 4g and cm7
One does not simply retain 4G
On an unlocked bootloader

Either post in cybik's CM7 thread or in General or Q&A.. Dev section is not the correct section for this thread..!

What he said. Can't be done. You have to unlock to run cm7 or any custom rom, and once unlocked, you no longer have 4g. Sorry.

Think OP may be referring to the old school way of unlocking then relocking, but I don't believe that will work with CM7.

Only works with ROMs can use the stock blur kernel. Cm7 does not and can not.

nope, seeing as everything is the same as what we have already. VZW switched their network back to what it was before the outage a while back, that could be it.

thats exactly what it is
so which radio is useable with CM7?
I tried to flash it last night running the MR2 radio and that didnt work. I had no signal whatsoever even after doing the procedure in this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13348917&postcount=1
please help. CM7 looks so wonderful but i cant even get it to work
CM7 works just fine with the 2.5 - 3.5.
the latest 3.5 (802) however produces poor 4G performance. it's best to use 2.5 for 4G.

This is saying it's all locked down and encrypted. I really hope HTC doesn't go down the Motorola way.

I always hope for someone to make a mistake when reporting these things.
This sucks!
so basically we have to use the stock version????
me sad
ok, dont bite my head off but............
what does this mean exactly?
cant root?
cant load apps?
sorry, i'll always be a noob at this stuff.
well, with my Atrix, until we get our bootloader bypass straightened out, we're just running Pseudo-ROMs right now (AOSP SMS, Gingerbread theme, etc.)
I'm not sure how this will affect your root though? I know that even my Inspire was a b**** to root, and all I had to do for my Atrix was SuperOneClick.

It'll be like the DX/D2. No custom kernels, no totally getting rid of Sense if you don't want it, etc. With root you can remove bloat from /system/app. But like I said, not sure if this will affect root or not.

Yes, but look at the all the development for the Motorola devices. The Atrix, it seems like, is the only device that seems like it has a chance to run custom kernels besides the OG Droid.
The Defy has 2nd init running, which allows for ROMs, but not kernels.
Evo 3D devs have a lot of work to do if they wanna crack this, I think.

We should be able to get partial root, similar to what was originally released from unrevoked. No custom kernals or ROMs, but you will be able to run any app that requires root as well as remove anything from the ROM that requires root access i.e. remove from system/app

We are all keeping it a secret and not posting about it.
Lol, just curious if any devs have news about this, like if it is still in the works, and possibly done, just not posted yet.
I'm with deeds on this one. With all of the recent updates and new kernels and whatnot, its hard to decipher exactly where we stand with this phone, as far as progress. A quick recap of whats been happening would be great.
I love your screen name, it is so awesome, lol.

Link or where to find this ? I would unlock. but I live in a good 4G area.....
Update, its not fixed yet. Limited time plus lack of help= slow progress. However by unlocking you can have cm7, miui(oops secrets out), oc kernels, and other awesomeness. Imagine 60% increase in speed while increasing battery life massively. Thats how we mophos roll.

Same here, no ROM on my phone until there's an unlocked bootloader from Motorola/Sprint that keeps 4G. For now, its just a rooted phone with ADW launcher.

better than stock to me
point me in the right direction!!
I have the photon with an unlocked bootlaoder, I had it rooted but for some reason couldn't flash cwm. So I tried unrooting and returning back to stock following qbking77s how to video. But it told me process failed and phone would just stick at motorola dual core screen. So I reflashed the unlocked version I had and can't undo it! Please help.

I suggest that you start your own thread, (I don't have an issue with you posting about this here), but you'd get more responses for help if you post in a new thread. The only people that will read this are the few with bootloader news, like I said, the few. But, if you ask for help in a new thread, chances are, you'll find what you're looking for. Good luck!
You can unlock your bootloader, flash cm7 (or your rom of choice), and relock your bootloader, and then voila.
CM7 with 4g.
But dont use those as exact intructions LOL.
Theyre are threads about it. Look in the dev section.
You might want to try that out before you suggest it.

I was actually going to post my own thread for devs to give 4g updates hehe
I really appreciate what you devs are doing! Ill always be open to help if you need any, im not a developer but interested in learning and am pretty damn good at the basics of rooting/build.prop recovery etc..
One question (even though i should prob make my own thread im not in a hurry to get the answer plus its half the same subject) i have the cmw RECOVERY, ive been out of town and since im normally in kansas city (sprints headquarters, so perfect 4g everywhere) i just wanted to check, if i have cmw RECOVERY does this mean ive lost 4g?

I love my photon with a passion except for the bloat ware. I want the stock android launcher on my phone. I hate the moto crap. I want to run everything straight google on my device with out rooting. But if their is a 100% vanilla rom out there that be nice too.
U could compile one for it?

This can only be done with root. But honestly rooting takes 5 minutes and can be reversed so there is no reason not to. Universal deblur, compliments of lokifish.

Okay will this root work with a stock 2.3.5. I've been reading around and more then a couple people reported that you cant root a 2.3.5. I hope this isnt true.
you can very well root a stock 2.3.5. Look for the thread all things root and you will be able to do it

Not possible, if you are on the latest OTA update. And you'd loose 4G if it was possible

He's right. That is an unlocked rom, and you can't unlock if you have taken the 2.3.5 update.

Is there a rom that webtop and 4g works on?
Thanks.
Stock?
Look at lokfishmars' posts. I believe he has a locked rom with a working webtop.
An unlocked Photon means no 4G period. Not gonna happen
Locked phones do have 4G and very little rom selection.

Mof is your only option. But Mofs rom is kindof one step below the definition of a 'custom' rom due to the use of stock kernels. Its more of a modified stock rom. But for what youre asking for, its worth it.
