Tip: Once someone comes up with a root injection kernel, get a system dump ASAP. Root that system image and find someone who hasn't obtained root via kernel injection to flash the rooted system image and dump your stock kernel.

Usually the first rooting of a GB device is via an insecure kernel - but then everyone wants to root by any means possible, so everyone blows away their stock kernel, making it hard to retrieve the stock initramfs.

Getting a good clean system dump AND a kernel dump will require at least two devices, and potentially one person willing to risk hosing their device until a good kernel dump can be obtained.

I'm debating whether to hit the AT&T store Sunday... I really shouldn't...

An excellent post on "noobs vs. developers"

A few opinions on kernel development "good practices"

Note: I have chosen not to use XDA's "friends" feature - I will reject all incoming "friend" requests.
