Possible Ways to Crack the Bootloader

lol. Sorry. It's my fault for even providing a solution. PM me jickracer007, or start a new thread.

While you're here in this thread... any thoughts on cracking RSA 2048 encryption? lol.

I forgot something else, another trick we used to use on other motorola models (up until around the V9 where the game changed a bit) was to make use of "test point" locations on the physical pcb, which when shorted would result in the phone dropping into a "blank" mode when powered on, allowing bypass of all security entirely. Used to use this method to unlock the V3re and several other models back in the day. Problem with that is that this method generally applied to GSM phones, I never saw TP methods for CDMA devices. However, given that there was never much need to get around the encryption on older cdma devices, it was probably never fully explored or went poorly documented. Knowing moto, there is probably a similar method. Finding it though would be an entirely different story. First, we'd have to reverse engineer a schematic, etc, etc, etc... not to mention find someone with a MB810 or A955 board they are willing to donate to science.

Does this idea seem plausible?

I just read the same thing while browsing through my rss feeds. It looks hopeful since the x will be hitting eol soon. We might get lucky and get an unlockable bootloader sooner than later. Let's keep our fingers crossed but not hold our breath as I don't want people passing out at the keyboard. Lol

I know this may sound silly but, Is their anyway to replicate the verification process? Like, copy the boot process and pre-load it into a custom os/rom? In other words, dupe it?

Nope, the only way we can dupe the bootloader is by getting the signing keys, I wish someone within Motorola HQ would just leak the keys already.

Maybe once this phone reaches it's EOL, the keys will get leaked...

I know you said leaked but...

How will Motorola force us to buy one of their new phones? Except noone will buy it because they don't like that the bootloader is unlocked.

I really am fed up w/ this unlocked bootloader, I can't even use google maps w/o it lagging up every minute or so.
