Sapphire ROM For Motorola Droid

I just received word on IRC about this ROM for the Motorola Droid.  It is a themable vanilla Android ROM built from source.

It looks very nice and very promising:

While most ROMs are not technically development releases but rather hacks and tweaks based on an official (or leaked) update.zip, Sapphire is completely built from AOSP source, with minor additions. What does this mean? This means that Sapphire can support features that require a much lower level of modifications, such as additions to android framework classes and alteration of basic android features.

From what they’ve told me a new release will be hitting shortly after the new OTA drops.

Droid X Rooted

I just got word from a reliable source that the Droid X has been rooted.

I have not been able to confirm this report yet and no other news sites seemed to have mention it up to this point…  but I’m sure information is on the XDA forums somewhere.

I will put more information here as it becomes available and only as time permits.

While root is now possible on the Droid X there is no way yet to flash a custom recovery.

Update #1:  You can now get information here and here.

X, WiFi Issues???

It has only been a few weeks and already the Droid X is having a slew of problems. The latest is that the X has a hard time connecting to WiFi and once connected, crappy throughput to say the least. This comes on the heels of Verizon reporting that some Droid X owners are going to well, have horrible display issues. Yes, Verizon actually admitted to some of the devices having defective screens.  This is bad news for anyone who looked forward to watching HD on the device, bummer. Let us not forget the biggest pain in the ass for anyone on this website. E-Fuse and the locked boot loader, those two things alone will keep you from hacking your phone for a very long time. Do you guys detect a little bit of excitement in the article? Glade I am an Incredible owner. Hit the link below for the full article.
