[Project Cheesecake] Unlocking the DEFY bootloader! - ABANDONED

[bharaththeunique]

Not fr me though.....they have begun unlocking devices.....buildquality is the best.....only a more powerful galaxy s4 or d next nexus phone can trump the pros of an unlocked Moto phone....especially when backed by google

So the unlock project is stopped already?

It's been dead for a long time.... Like samcripp stated before this thread lost it's propose a long time
ago..... It was mean to find a update in the moto servers on a previous update that might contain
an unlocked rom or something by was not found... Instead this thread became a talk about what
techniques can be used to unlock or bypass the bootloader like using kexec....

Guys, i know the thread is abandoned, but someone tried the new moto website?

https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a

When you register and everything it starts you to take this:




DEVICE ID AND UNLOCK KEY
To unlock your device, you need to retrieve your device ID and obtain an unlock code.

I. RETRIEVING YOUR DEVICE ID
Put your device in fastboot mode (Power+Vol Down) and connect over USB
Open a command prompt or Terminal session
Go to the Directory where you installed the Android SDK tools, and type:
$ fastboot oem get_unlock_data
This fastboot command will return a character string. This is the Device ID which you will be using to generate your unique unlock key.
$ fastboot oem get_unlock_data
(bootloader) 0A40040192024205#4C4D3556313230
(bootloader) 30373731363031303332323239#BD00
(bootloader) 8A672BA4746C2CE02328A2AC0C39F95
(bootloader) 1A3E5#1F53280002000000000000000
(bootloader) 0000000
OKAY

To generate your unlock code, you’ll need to paste together the 5 lines of output into one contnuous string without "(bootloader)" or white spaces.. Using the example above, the line you’d send us would be:
0A40040192024205#4C4D355631323030373731363031303332323239#BD008A672BA4746C2CE02328A2AC0C39F951A3E5#1F532800020000000000000000000000
Enter your continuous string into the "Request Your Unlock Key" section below.

Someone tried this, anyway? I can't get in the fastboot mode anyway, it just shows me the classic android with exclamation at it's side.

There is no fastboot for Defy. Only way is via RSDlite while flashing sbf as to my knowledge.

Ok sop maybe the command prompt part will have to be done while flashing a.sbf file. Maybe we could try it with a fixede .sbf

Yes, read their MotoDev blog or ask them using Twitter. Ive asked and they say that they wont unlock BL for older devices than Photon Q

Seriously, don't expect anything coming from moto. Until GOOGLE don't take full control of that company, don't expect anything on older devices...

Please, Google, don't be evil

Google will sell MMI next year to Huawei.

Google doesnt have any influence in Motorola Mobility board and managing, they only own it by stock market.

 

[pjgowtham]

[kryptonitiko]

Moto unlocked the bootloader of some device at unlockmydevice.Com if I remember correctly.....Do you think defy Will be added TO the list?

 

[Boss442]

cant patch a bootloader file in /dev/block?

 

[skeevydude]

Anyone seen this yet???

MS2 successfully booted a custom kernel with 2nd-boot and working radio I'm going to test it on my Bravo as soon as I can (currently using my Phone's wifi to upload PA...) Apparently it has some issues, but who cares since its a custom kernel on a locked bootloader with radio, 3g, and wifi

Could somebody test it ,maybe this boot.img.p is without signature? And how convert boot.img.p to boot.img?

I've downloaded the update you linked.
Basically, boot.img.p is an img file and .p extension may stay for "patch" (or similar). The update-script flash it as a normal boot.img!

Anyway, according to the project cheesecake instructions, under linux shell you have to run:

strings bootloader.img | grep -i unlock

If something is found (i.e. the command print an output).
I tried (replacing bootloader.img to boot.img.p, obviously) and nothing was found, so this update doesn't unlock our defy.
