hey fenuxx, nice to see you helping out the xda community, most people here still think fission is the only rom the d2g has
Just trying to get the word out about it. Angel and I are posting it everywhere we can.
Hi,
I'm using it (v1.0.0) almost 24 hours now on GSM and it's rock solid.
Even adding phone numbers to exchange contacts works now (didn't work on Fission).
Great ROM!
Regards
nice rom, i did think that fission was the only rom, will have to check out droid forums
thanks
Awesome! Thank you

Awesome! Thank you .....
Awesome! Great ROM, does what it needs to do, and fast. no lag, no reboots, no bugs (that i've come across in 2 days of use).
I guess there is one thing I could mention... maybe its from a deleted cache or something that isnt replaced. When I flashed this, only my purchased apps in my market were showing up. Coming from a droid1 with lots of ROM testing, I was used to having my "free" apps backed up as well during data sync. NO BIGGIE.
Props for the great work
can this ROM work with GSM network ?
can some replicate this:
enable GSM only in Network n Wireless (network mode)
go to GSM/UTMS option and untick Use Only 2G network
press back one time
Network mode changed back to GSM/WCDMA again
how do i enable GSM only?
just installed will report back ...just in case how do i go back to stock 2.2 if need be ???

Using a Droid 2 Global I've gone through all the steps and am using Rom Manager to install it and it just reboots my phone and doesn't install. I've set it to all the correct options, etc and it just reboots.
Any ideas?

rom manager doesnt work, you need droid 2 bootstrapper, just google it, it should be easy to find
I used that and installed the file from the main post, it installed and it has been at what I assume is the logo for the ROM, a flashing X thing for a while now?
Should I take the battery out and factory reset or is this normal?

turn it off (or pull the battery) open up the keyboard and hold down x and turn the phone on, you should get into the recovery, then just push the magnifying glass button on your keyboard and wipe data/cache (also known as factory reset) and it should boot.
Am itching to flash this rom to my wifey's phone (just bought her a D2G, which remains unrooted and fully stock) but she seems pretty happy with stock
It's such a good room, so smoothly.
Big thanks

Finally there is some interesting news for Motorola Droid X2 owners as Droid X2 bootstrap recovery app is now available for download. The credit for this discovery goes to c21Johnson, who unearthed this gem while skimming through some Chinese forums discussing Android development; most probably GoAPK. There are certain users and developers at XDA not giving their consent to this build but there are users who have successfully installed Bootstrap recovery and also made and restored backups. There is a lot of controversy going on regarding this bootstrap build and we would like to stay away from it by just reporting what’s going on. According to some folks, this recovery was in reality written for Atrix 4G before it got modified and was made compatible with Motorola Droid X2.
For those who don’t know, installing this app will allow you to flash custom bootstrap recovery on your Droid X2. You can flash ROMs, partition SD Card, flash kernels, backup / restore your current ROM and do numerous stuff on your phone once you have a custom recovery on board. In order to install this bootstrap recovery on your Droid X2, simply download the file from here, unzip and then copy the APK to your phone. After you have copied the APK, use any file manager like Astro to install. After the installation is complete, tap to launch the app and follow onscreen instructions to detail in order to flash bootstrap custom recovery on your phone.
There is heated discussion going on regarding legitimacy and intellectual copyrights of this app, so please head to XDA thread here to get involved. We haven’t tested this app and you will be on your own after flashing it. Extreme caution is advised.
And if you are the developer of this recovery, please let us know in the comments area and we will be happy to add credits.

In the first step of many to freeing up a Motorola device, our friend Koush has released a bootstrap method compatible for the Motorola Droid X2 With that comes the ability to install and run a custom recovery. Everyone’s favorite – Clockwork – is also now available and ready to go. Things are looking up for the hacking community there. We’re still some time off from custom ROMs but be sure to follow along at XDA to be a part of all the excitement. [XDA via Droid-Life]

If you are using your phone please do not use stock browser as it has troubles downloading files. Feel free to use your favorite browser, but I highly recommend Boat Browser, it is very light-weight, quick, and offers everything that is to be desired.
Boat Browser download:
Android Market (FREE)
You will also need a file explorer outside of stock; I highly recommend Root Explorer.

Background:
Initially, I had heard that p3 had announced that X2 users would be, in fact, getting some Gingerbread love. After seeing this tweet, I became inclined to believe that p3 had a leak of what he said is 2.3.4. So, I went on the search to find this leak. Knowing the ins and outs of Google search, I was determined the find this file using what I thought would be the update name in a zip file. After trying dozens of search combinations, I stumbled upon something interesting... A search that lead to nothing but Chinese websites. Then after clicking a few and finding no useful information, I found a website listed with a renown name: GOAPK. I ventured into GOAPK forums where I found what seemed to be a ROM for the Droid X2. Dumbfounded by the idea of a ROM being available, but no recovery, I then went on the search for the method of accessing recovery. Luckily, I found it quickly in the same forums. Even more blocks were soon to come though. I mustered through all the Chinese and was able to register on the forums. After I registered, I was asked to post a reply to the thread before I could download. This brought me to a halt, as when I posted, I had to enter a security code and answer a security question. The question was illegible even while using Google Translate (which did a rather poor job on the website all together). So, after copying the filenames, I began Google-ing again. Finally found the files, and found the way to successfully download... That is, after waiting about 4 hours for the download to complete. I was pretty fearless in jumping onto this and seeing if it would work, but I was ready for X2 development to begin, because, honestly, the phone as stock contains a lot of software problems, some which cannot be resolved with a simple root.
Before getting started, it is important that we have root. In order to obtain root and superuser permissions, we must use Gingerbreak. Before we begin, me must make sure we have an SD card inserted and mounted. After that, be sure to enable "Unknown sources" (settings > applications) and "USB debugging" (settings > applications > development). After this is complete, install, open, and run Gingerbreak. Your device should reboot if the installation is successful. Once the device has booted back up, be sure to check for Superuser in your applications, this will ensure you correctly have root. Note: Intallation may take a few moments, so please be patient. If your phone locks up, pull battery and try again.
Gingerbreak APK download:
Mirror 1
After obtaining root rights, you're free to install the Droid X2 Recovery.
Instructions:
Download Droid X2 Recovery. This file will most likely be in .rar format, so, unzip it using your favorite method. After the APK has been successfully installed, launch it (if you do not immediately launch it, it is titled "System Recovery" in the application drawer). It will appear to be the Atrix recovery, but this file has been modified to work with the Droid X2 device. There are on screen instructions, but I will additionally post them here. First, you want to see above for having device root. Second, install recovery by clicking the "Install Recovery" button at the top of the application. After installation, wait a few seconds to ensure it is complete. Now, hook you device to the AC CHARGER (not USB to computer). And click the "Recovery Mode" button to reboot the phone into recovery. The "Charge Mode" button will also reboot the phone, but instead of going into Android recovery, it will boot you to default charge. Many have speculated that this is an "oh **** button." This is not the case, it's just to bypass recovery and go directly to charge. The device will also charge at the recovery screen, so, no need to worry about the device becoming discharged and not being able to boot.

In the recovery menu, we will use the volume rocker to navigate up and down. The power button will be used to confirm/make a selection. The options you will be allowed to choose from are as follows:
Reboot system now
- This will reboot the device and skip recovery.
Apply SDCARD:update.zip
- This will flash an update.zip file located on your EXTERNAL SD card.
Apply SDINTERNAL:update.zip
- This will flash an update.zip file located on your internal memory.
Wipe DATA/Factory reset
- Clears the data portion of your device. As stated, is the same as a factory reset.
Wipe CACHE partition
- Simply clears the cache partition of the device as stated.
Install zip from SDCARD
- Allows a .zip file to be chosen for flash. Can be chosen from internal memory or external.
Backup & restore
- Allows creation of a nandroid backup. After backup is created, will allow restoration of said nandroid.
- This is one of the first things you should do when entering recovery. It can really save you some time and headache to have a nandroid on hand in case things do not go as planned.
Mounts & Storage
- Allows mounting of storage locations and allows wiping of those locations.
Advanced
- Miscellaneous options for your device.
+++++Go Back+++++
- Returns to the previous menu.
Also discovered was a Chinese developed ROM. Note how I said Chinese. It is fully flashable, and for the most part, functional. I don't necessarily recommend installing it as I haven't had the time to dig through it and determine what is actually included/changed.

I deserve no credit for developing this. I was picking through chinese websites when I stumbled upon it. It seems to be a modified Atrix 4G recovery that works on the Droid X2. Everything is in English and it works great.
Oh my goodness. Making a back up now. I just came in my pants.
And my post was deleted?!
I guess just message me for download link.
Unsure. I received no PM pertaining to an explanation why it has been removed. I'll post it here once my count allows.
1 more... Apology for spam. First post will be updated shortly with download.
EDIT: Original updated. If a mod wouldn't mind cleaning up this thread of my spam, I'd appreciate it.

Please define the differences between what you have and what has been released here. This one works flawlessly to all of my testing. I have flashed a ROM and it worked great.
For those wondering, it got removed from DroidForums because it APPARENTLY has affiliation with p3, and they were unsure whether or not this was the most stable version in development. I say apparently because I, personally, do not believe he was involved with this APK.
I have tried using this and it does not work. You can try for yourself if you like. If you see my previous post I have linked back to the thread that it supposedly came from and Eric also confirms this isn't legit.
Seeing as it doesn't work I would define this as not being legit.
Please post screens as I am unable to get it to work. The custom recovery that was provided in the link was for the Atrix.
Thank you for posting Johnson!

I really don't deserve thanks, but thank you. All I did was poke through some chinese and discover the download. I am working on the screens. I assure you that this is working for me and I have successfully flashed a ROM from the same chinese website.
What kind of rom was this? Can you post it too?
So is this what gets us past the so called "locked bootloader"? Custom roms from here on?
The ROM is titled "Quens_DX2_CHS_update_signed" You should be able to find it using Google. I'd rather not post it because I don't exactly know the contents of this ROM. All I know is that it made my phone extremely chinese. It installed a few chinese APKs, replaced the original keyboard with a chinese/english alternative (that is actually extremely nice), and appeared to have changed the LCD density. I didn't do any deep digging as a few things have come up this evening that have taken me away from the computer.
I am going to SBF the phone, and do it all over again while hopefully providing screenshots, and then I'll also be able to tell the exact changes of this ROM. But do note, this ROM installed flawlessly.
If a video is what everyone is wanting, I will have one uploaded to YouTube hopefully by 10pm EST.
Works great. Did a backup successfully.

We simply just seem to be getting mixed reviews pertaining this APK. I know most people already realize this, but you must be root.
Atrix 4G Stock 2.3.4 ROM + Ports and Development Thread
As some of you may know I have been doing some work to port us some ROM's from the Atrix 4G on AT&T. Originally, I was going to port just one, then I thought I might do many, and then I said I was going to release them all at once. Well, that is a lot of work . Please vote in this poll for the ROM's you'd like to see on the Droid X2 first. This is currently only specific to BLUR based ROM's. Not all features, modifications, or applications will be included with ROM ports. Please see post #2 (jump to Post #2) for the stock 2.3.4 Atrix 4.5.91 ROM, all other ROM's will be posted in their own thread.

General Port Notes
Q: Need to activate? Need to update your PRL? Dial *22899 in the dialer and call out, this will automate your activate request (instead of having to choose an option). This is needed because there is no keypad for *228.
Q: I'm having problems with the Market, what's wrong? You should clear data for the Market. Go into Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All, search for Market. Then clear data for it. The market should load right away. Otherwise, count it as the market just being finicky.
Q: I tried to go into the Bootstrap Recovery, but my phone just got stuck at the red orb? You didn't install the recovery to your phone. You need to select the "Install Recovery" button before you actually go into "Recovery Mode".
Q: My phone is having all sorts of issues, why are things FC'ing? You most likely need to do a data/cache wipe. Go into recovery and wipe data/cache. Also, check the "Android" and "data" folders on your SD card (internal and/or external) and delete them.

Yes, anything in Post #2 is completed work. They may receive patches, but that is it.

lol, no problem, you don't have to do that though. When you flashed the ROM you undid the 2nd-init anyway. So you basically did it twice.

ROM is great. Not going to lie though, not too impressed with the theme selection for the Atrix - most that I've found are pretty tacky (for my taste)

I'm presuming. Personally, even if it's just an ROM update, I wipe the 'big 3' every time. Too many issues are caused by people trying to cut corners and not wipe data. For me to get back to where I was before wiping, it literally takes maybe 15 minutes with tibu and a settings restore with GoLauncher and Go SMS.
Cheers to you Naven!! Downloading now but I have to wait to flash at work tomorrow morning.

Just downloaded & wondering the same thing... Naven thank you sir for your work
Naven, the atrix port is pretty sweet. Lots of visual goodies, 2.3.4 (!). Would be awesome to tie this into a new version of eclipse. Kudos to you sir!
BTW: Boot animation, very nice.
Tried flashing a Atrix theme (I'm an idiot) and now my phone doesn't get past the moto logo...gonna SBF back to Froyo and start all over again.
Anyways, from the few minutes I played with it, it's awesome. My above problem is just my stupidity.

How to install CM7 (Cyanogenmod) for the Motorola Droid X2.
Please note that with all ROMs, you have the possibility of bricking your phone. Use caution and ask questions! I, dragonzkiller, am NOT responsible for what you choose to do with or to your phone!
YOU MUST BE ON Gingerbread 2.3.4!!! This is the only version I will support! I have implemented a method to check for what version in the install, so you'll know. If you have ever upgraded to 2.3.5, you must SBF back to 2.3.4 as this check checks the kernel. This is the second BETA release, so that means most of the issues have been fixed, however there may still be problems! Please let me know what problems or issues you run into so I can address/fix them.
Now, onto the good stuff! It MUST be done in this order!
1. NANDROID BACKUP!
2. SBF to 2.3.4 unless you are already there. See MoonShadow-NM's guide: HowTo: Perform a SBF ("factory restore") of your Motorola Droid X2
3. Root your Motorola Droid X2. See MoonShadow-NM's guide: HowTo: Root your Motorola Droid X2 - UPDATED [14DEC2011]
4. Install the Motorola Droid X2 Bootstrap Recovery (BSR). See MoonShadow-NM's guide: HowTo: Perform a bootstrap (or nandroid) backup and recovery of your Droid X2
5. Put the Google Apps zip, the CM7 zip, and my patched BSR apk on your EXTERNAL sdcard.
6. Boot into BootStrap Recovery. (You should know how to do this... See item number 4 above as a reference.)
7. Install the CM7 zip.
8. THEN the Google Apps Zip.
10. IMPORTANT! Wipe data and cache (factory reset) and wipe dalvik cache!
11. Boot your phone into CM7. (You will probably have to activate if you didn't after you SBF'd and setup your Google account here.)
12. Install the patched Motorola Droid X2 Bootstrap Recovery (BSR). (This can be found in the download section of this post. Once you have CM7DX2 installed, you MUST install this BSR!)
13. Go into the Superuser app and update the su binary.
14. Go into the Android Market and update the apps on the phone. Keep in mind that once you update the Superuser app, you cannot update the su binary. (Looking into this, however, it might be a Superuser issue and not a CM7 issue.)
15. Sit back and enjoy CM7 on your DX2!
16. Never user RomManager! (Yes it's included, but that's a CM7 thing and won't work with the DX2.)
17. NEVER DELETE ANYTHING FROM PREINSTALL! The hijack requires files in there that are installed with the BSR. I don't know why any non-dev would be messing with those files anyway.
NOTE: If you get a hang on the M after the Google Apps Zip is flashed you didn't follow these steps. But you DON'T have to SBF! Try getting into stock recovery by having the phone off, pressing the Vol Down and Power Buttons until the "Fastboot" appears on your screen, scroll DOWN until you see the "Android Recovery" and press Vol Up. You will then see an android with an exclamation point. Press BOTH volume buttons and scroll down to "Wipe Data." Press the power button to select it and scroll down to "Yes" and select that. Then reboot and WAIT! The initial boot takes the longest. If this still doesn't work, THEN SBF and follow the directions above EXACTLY.
Using the Patched Bootstrap Recovery With CM7DX2
In order to get into recovery with CM7DX2 you ABSOLUTELY MUST download the patched BSR APK located in the download section of this post! There was a problem with the "hijack" name. It is conflicting with the CM7 hijack. NEVER install the original BSR while in CM7DX2! This is a guaranteed way to boot loop your phone! It might not boot loop the first couple of reboots, but it will... Eventually!
FIXED ISSUES!
init no longer hogs 100% of a core
Bluetooth WORKS!
DSP Manager WORKS!
Torch (flashlight) WORKS!
Google Voice WORKS!
Dock Settings Re-Added
Battery Fix (battery files from 2.3.3)
Both SD Cards work
WIFI and USB Tethering WORKS!
WIFI sleep issue MIGHT be fixed in Beta 2
Updating SU binary WORKS! (After update from Play Store)
Known Issues!
WIFI might still have some sleep issues. If this is the case, I'll look into it later.
Currently Disabled Features (Because we don't support them)
Reboot Recovery
Reboot Bootloader
HDMI - There is no native code for HDMI in CM7, so this probably won't be fixed.
FM Radio - For now. Might be a fix later.
This post will be updated as time goes on.

I'd be stocked if you couldn't!!! It set everything to the way it would be if you'd done a full sbf.
Awesome! Thanks so much.
SBF'd from Tron Mod Rom X2

Even though I'm long gone from the X2, I came in here to say congrats. I know you've been working on it for a minute!
Nice job Dragonkillaz....
this thing is running smooth so far! thank you for the hard work.
Super smooth so far I have run into no issues yet.
One question though. Where can I get the keyboard that came with the eclipse 1.3 rom?
Sent from my MB870 using xda premium
Awesome work dragonzkiller! Wish I could have been there. I'll gladly test bluetooth stuff if you need. I use it and gps throughout my day every day
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
Installed just fine, giving it a run through right now.
I'm wondering, is there going to be an official bug/discussion thread?
If I remember correctly Civic, there should be an apk you can pull and install from eclipse. Maybe it'll install though.
LaserChicken: At this moment, your in it.
Hitman: Gps works
Bluetooth doesn't work atm, neither does googlevoice, It'll crash.
Default keyboard in Eclipse is Swype Beta.. you will have to remove everything Swype from the ROM and reinstall with Swype's beta apk. I wouldn't try it right now though.
Nice work dragonzkiller
Anyone know how to spoof the Mac address on a Droid x2 running cm7? I've tried several different suggested (for other devices) terminal commands but they don't work or they don't do anything.
OFF TOPIC: quick sidenote, anyone know how to get to BSR on dx2 cm7?BSR Solved
Just install it again.
