Possible Ways to Crack the Bootloader

[kptphalkon]

@UNC,

Locking the bootloader in no way prevents malicious apps from being installed. It is the user who installs them, whether or not that user knows what he or she is actually doing. As far as cracking or exploits,

Well I sir enjoy rooting my phone and taking those risks so I can have the control over my device to be able to run it properly, with decisive command, and efficiently.


@Wugfresh

What you're suggesting is that if we do not take action, and we all just sit down, and do nothing about our wish to be free, and the desire mainly to have our phones completely usable by US THE USERS AND CONSUMERS, phones and computers will just be so locked down that we could only run say, government approved programs. On a bland singular operating system. No hard drives, personal storage, itll all be cloud based. No freedom.

I am with FreeMyMoto until I die or Moto goes bankrupt. You sir have my pledge

Really can they Sue us for trying to break the bootloader. That's like sueing an NFL player for thinking about a helmet to helmet tackle. That just doesn't sound right to me. Now if do break it and start to create custom ROMs it should be made that you must make a donation and proceeds must go to Moto just so they wont Sue us or something of the sort

I don't know... but thousands of people running hash colliders to break SHA-1 might not be illegal, but I think its safe to say it falls in the "sketch" category.. lol

Yes that's very sketchy. But what if the person clicks like an I agree button or something. Then we have their permission to do this so it should be okay.

If I were to deploy that...
A - I would have to actually calculate how many people we needed and if it was even possible...
B - I certainly wouldn't base anything on guesses... I would seek advice from someone who knew the legal code. And yes.. there would probably have to be a disclosure agreement.. but honestly those don't stand up in court as well as you think they would. If I was in violation of anything... they would try and hit me with the harshest penalty.

I think we need to consult with a professional/lawyer about what we can do that will be in the "safe boundaries". That way we will know what we are doing is legal.

Keep the comments in that thread coming, it should be relentlessly bumped IMO...

Just Crack the Damn Bootloader Already! LOL!

But seriously... if my OG Droid wasn't so slow and choppy, I'd go back to it. But I love my X. And I would love to ROM it even half as much as I did my D1. I'm scared to try any of the current DX Roms out there. Oy.

Include a link to that petition in the app?

I think you that should be in its own thread. That way everyone can see it even if they don't look at this thread they will see the title and sign.

@PalmerCurling
That might be the way to go. Let's consider that petition the app for now so that this doesn't lose any momentum... get sigs! The app can simply be another platform to spread that petition... plus the other features I mentioned.

That petition already has a voice so it would be silly to cause a divide. Let's blow that thing up.
