Cool An idea for Developers

last i had an idea tht might help in unlocking the Bootloader of Milestone. we have to flash the Vulnerable Recovery by GOT whenever we flash our mobile with the Stock ROM to use custom Update.zip files... i guess the developers might get some help by investigating the GOT's ROM and Recovery image....

so the u guys will be able to make custom ROM image file...


this is just a thought no offense to anyone....

There is no special GOT recovery its just old recovery made by moto which got a bug that allows to apply custom update.zip. There is no problem in flashing any kernel u want, there is no protection for that. Protection only exists when u turn on the phone the signature of the boot partition is being checked by the bootloader ( mbm ) and if u flash not properly signed boot.img ( partition with the kernel ) phone wont boot it. http://and-developers.com/boot:boot_chain

It's kinda sad that you think that developers are that dumb... Do some research before you post, especially in the development thread.
