Lol

That's the beautiful thing about disclaimers :D

In theory it isn't good.

But it depends I guess

Is it 100% of the time its running maxed out?

If not all should be fine.

Its less than overclockng :p

And the real danger comes in when the temperature stays over I believe 150-160 F on the cpu...then u might wanna cool that bad boy down :)

Edit:: here is some temperature info for ya :D

[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Yeah, My phone gets pretty hot when I try to stream videos. I had to turn it off for a bit. I didnt like that. lol
[Motorola Droid X2] onefix:
Well, I'm not...since I discovered what it was doing, I have been running SetCPU with rules that lower the maximum speed to ~400MHz when the phone is in sleep, in call, or if the CPU temp gets higher than 50 degrees celcius. :D

---------- Post added at 10:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:29 PM ----------

Presumably you should be able to write a simple rule in tasker that reduces the CPU's maximum speed when you are playing videos, since the video is being decoded by the Tegra2's on-board decoder rather than the CPU.
[Motorola Droid X2] drapp:
Same if not more. On eclipse was running about 100-105mb free. Been running since yesterday afternoon and its at 170 free right now
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
The heat is most likely generated by the 3g radio streaming constantly ...which seems to be located near the cpu since the cpu gets hot when pulling a lot through 3g.

[Motorola Droid X2] Romans8vs1:
Does anyone know if we will be able to flash the beta version over the alpha version? Or will we have to sbf again?
[Motorola Droid X2] rbellis:
thanks for asking this. I was wanting to know the same thing!
[Motorola Droid X2] RyanThaDude:
I would assume as long as your on the 2.3.4 kernel all you would have to do is the Big-3 Wipe.
[Motorola Droid X2] rbellis:
Awesome....thank you!
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
I would agree as long as you are on same kernal you should be fine.
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
I'm not even gonna wipe data on first try as bsr will be trashed. On most roms you can get by the FCs to privacy data reset and so doing sure of rebooting just fine.
[Motorola Droid X2] rbellis:
i know that it will be done at my own risk but are you saying that you are going to install ontop of alpha and do a factory reset once everything is loaded? and by doing this...BSR wont be messed up?
[Motorola Droid X2] jimenez:
anytime theres a update for a rom i just flash it over the previous version that is already installed and just reboot, unless it requires of a different kernel of course. I never had a problem or ever got force closes with this method but we shall see
[Motorola Droid X2] rbellis:
thanks gus! I love the XDA group!
[Motorola Droid X2] onefix:
No, the heat is likely the init bug that is about to be fixed.
[Motorola Droid X2] rbellis:
Dragon just twitted "Anticipation... :P".....I hope this means something will be happening soon
[Motorola Droid X2] Android.Ninja:
Just an FYI...

Just an FYI....

I wouldn't apply the update over the Alpha build.

dragonzkiller hasn't sent down his instructions yet,

but rest assured I believe he will reiterate the same thing. ;)

It is always possible you can update with out wiping data, cache, Davlik etc,

but then there's also a certainty that you will have problems. :eek:

Remember this was an alpha build. Moving foward to a more stable and reliable build, :p and with these changes comes a change in files and structure. :)

Why risk a flashing a good build over the top of a build previously with known issues? :rolleyes: No disrespect to the developer is intended. Dragonzkiller is well known for his quality of work. However if you know that alpha build has certain issues why would you flash a more stabke release over the top of a unstable base. Not a good idea at all. :( Those are the ones we wiil be reading about in this forum as it progresses.

The link is gonna drop soon, So be ready and do things the right way the first time, this way you dont experience those unexplained issues later, anjd end up SBF'ing anyways. Just my thoughts from 20+ years in developing.

Whatever instructions dragonzkiller provides I would suggest following his instructrions. However as a positive rule of thumb; I would suggest to always:

1. NANDROID BACKUP!

2. SBF to 2.3.4,

3. Root with zergRUSH.

4. Install the ORIGINAL Motorola Droid X2 Bootstrap Recovery.

5. Put all updates / zips on your sdcard.

6. Boot into BootStrap Recovery.

7. Install CM7 and updates.

8. IMPORTANT! Wipe data and cache (factory reset) and wipe dalvik cache!

9. Then sit back and enjoy your new and STABLE CM7 on your DX2!

[Motorola Droid X2] Stuckinabox:
That was odd. I pressed the power button on my phone and it woke up but the screen didn't turn on. I either managed to shut it off or it crashed, because it rebooted, only when it came back on it said I was roaming. After another reboot it went back to normal.
[Motorola Droid X2] Romans8vs1:

Why does my download speed choose to slow down now. Thanks dragon!
[Motorola Droid X2] Android.Ninja:
CyanogenMod 7.2.0-RC0 X2 BETA - Nake sure to follow the OP instructions exactly

Now, onto the good stuff! It MUST be done in this order!

1. NANDROID BACKUP!

2. SBF to 2.3.4 unless you are already there. See MoonShadow-NM's guide: HowTo: Perform a SBF ("factory restore") of your Motorola Droid X2

3. Root your Motorola Droid X2. See MoonShadow-NM's guide: HowTo: Root your Motorola Droid X2 - UPDATED [14DEC2011]

4. Install the Motorola Droid X2 Bootstrap Recovery (BSR). See MoonShadow-NM's guide: HowTo: Perform a bootstrap (or nandroid) backup and recovery of your Droid X2

5. Put both the Google Apps zip, the CM7 zip, and dragonzkiller's patched BSR apk on your EXTERNAL sdcard.

6. Boot into BootStrap Recovery. (You should know how to do this... See item number 4 above as a reference.)

7. Install the CM7 zip.

8. THEN the Google Apps Zip.

9. IMPORTANT! Wipe data and cache (factory reset) and wipe dalvik cache!

10. Boot your phone into CM7. (You will probably have to activate if you didn't after you SBF'd and setup your Google account here.)

11. Install the patched Motorola Droid X2 Bootstrap Recovery (BSR). (This can be found in the download section of this post. Once you have CM7DX2 installed, you MUST install this BSR!)

12. Go into the Superuser app and update the su binary.

13. Go into the Android Market and update the apps on the phone. Keep in mind that once you update the Superuser app, you cannot update the su binary. (Looking into this, however, it might be a Superuser issue and not a CM7 issue.)

14. Sit back and enjoy CM7 on your DX2!

15. Never user RomManager! (Yes it's included, but that's a CM7 thing and won't work with the DX2.)

16. NEVER DELETE ANYTHING FROM PREINSTALL! The hijack requires files in there that are installed with the BSR. I don't know why any non-dev would be messing with those files anyway.

NOTE: If you get a hang on the M after the Google Apps Zip is flashed you didn't follow these steps. But you DON'T have to SBF! Try getting into stock recovery by having the phone off, pressing the Vol Down and Power Buttons until the "Fastboot" appears on your screen, scroll DOWN until you see the "Android Recovery" and press Vol Up. You will then see an android with an exclamation point. Press BOTH volume buttons and scroll down to "Wipe Data." Press the power button to select it and scroll down to "Yes" and select that. Then reboot and WAIT! The initial boot takes the longest. If this still doesn't work, THEN SBF and follow the directions above EXACTLY.

Using the Patched Bootstrap Recovery With CM7DX2

In order to get into recovery with CM7DX2 you ABSOLUTELY MUST download the patched BSR APK located in the download section of this post! There was a problem with the "hijack" name. It is conflicting with the CM7 hijack. NEVER install the original BSR while in CM7DX2! This is a guaranteed way to boot loop your phone! It might not boot loop the first couple of reboots, but it will... Eventually!
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
So once I get into CM7 it will allow me to use my old BSR to open and flash the new one?
[Motorola Droid X2] MrWilliams2:
You don't have to flash the new BSR. It's an APK. Just download and install.
[Motorola Droid X2] maggard5:
You should install the new one from your sd card just like you installed the old one. You do not flash it.
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
thanks for clarifying

I am in I see MY CM7
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
Well this is the safest route as you got "booting to cm7" so a wipe will trash cwr but not sys boot. Once back from stock wipe then do the other stuff.
[Motorola Droid X2] rbellis:
CM7 installed and booted. LOVE IT!
[Motorola Droid X2] bigreds747:
just fyi guys, if you were on the Alpha with the patched BSR already, you can just wipe data/cache/dalvik while in that recovery and install beta over alpha. no need to waste time sbf'ing back to stock 2.3.4. i am running beta like a boss!
[Motorola Droid X2] jwats1973:
OK so I am at the update binary step, is says downloading manifest....okay!

Parsing manifest...Okay!

Latest version = 3.0.3.2

Checking installed version =

And from here it just freezes and says working on the bottom but it never does anything.
[Motorola Droid X2] bigreds747:
same here for me man
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
Nice android ninja

Let's hope it gets followed

Why do people constantly want to risk having issues I will never understand
[Motorola Droid X2] bigreds747:
ok, true, but if alpha was based from 2.3.4, and so is beta, there shouldn't be any problem with just wiping data/dalvik/cache and installing beta. i am running like a charm man. i completely respect dragonzkiller's work, but to me it seems like the instructions are for people who are still stock, without the tweaked BSR and all that stuff already. you know what i mean? i guess if i have issues i will give you credit for being right, but for now, im going to do what ive done with all other flashes (many) in my day, and thats wipe data/dalvik/cache and install the .zip. haha, ill let u know if i have issues then
[Motorola Droid X2] MrWilliams2:
Can anyone tell me where to set up the custom toggles?

+1 ashclepdia

True so true. I guess they may think taking the shorcut is quicker to save a few minutes, Then they end up spending hours in the forum getting the same conclusion...

SBF'ing all over again. LoL :D
[Motorola Droid X2] jwats1973:
So I was not on the alpha and followed the instructions in the OP to the letter, any ideas why my SU wont update the binary? Says im on version 3.0.3.2
[Motorola Droid X2] bigreds747:
also, it shouldn't matter either because anything in the /system folder or anything to do with the system is overwritten. when you wipe data/cache/dalvik, thats only deleting apps and user data, so nothing in the /system folder will be carried over from alpha, so no issues should arise.
[Motorola Droid X2] dust.:
Hmm, my sd card is still not being read...

Edit: Oh nevermind it's just listed as emmc... is there any way to change this?
[Motorola Droid X2] Android.Ninja:
Hey no problem here and no disrespect intended. :) Just trying to save you from troubles down the road.

I can tell you one thing for sure. The changes he made Will definitely make a difference if you didn't follow thru exactly how it was mentioned. Some of the files that were modified will not play nice when installing over the previous. I'm just telling you this cause i've been dev'ing for 20+ years. But i'm not always right, just experience speaking. :)

Remember in one of dragonzkillers twitters he mentioned the following:

dragonzkiller:

Bluetooth was an easy fix once i spotted the problem. All I did was rewrite the bluedroid lib with some code from Motorola. Testing now.

Modifications like this if you dont follow the OP's instructions will give you unwanted & unpredictable results

Just trying to help you out. :D

Android.Ninja
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
Experience shows that when people don't follow install instructions they are the ones bringing up issues no one else encounters...

instructions are written by the dev who created them for a reason.

they wont support issues for people who didn't follow instructions also.

YES u CAN get away with it sometimes

the point is its NOT recommended to do it that way by the DEVELOPER.

That isn't saying u wont experience issues. Its saying that if u do u gotta start over to even figure out if its the install method that caused the issue.or if its an actual rom issue

((Im not trying to attack..im just explaining....:p)
[Motorola Droid X2] MrWilliams2:
Custom pulldown toggles anyone?
[Motorola Droid X2] bigreds747:
ok, i understand. i appreciate it. i guess i know what to do if i have issues.
[Motorola Droid X2] lordforex:
This beta ROCKS so far. I had the Alpha loaded so I just did a Nanoid restore of my rooted 2.3.4 backup, copied the needed files to my SD card, booted into BSR, wiped the big three, and installed CM7 beta and google apps. Worked like a charm. :):)

Thanks for the hard work.

[Motorola Droid X2] chrislewissd:
Trust me when I tell you, make the switch. You will be absolutely amazed at how smooth this rom is. I am not sure how familiar you are with CM but the ability to customize the status bar, scrolling effects, overall theme of the phone, and more without flashing anything makes it waaaayyyy better than anything out there.

Just because its on 2.3.4 doesn't mean its a steep down in fact its a leap forward.

You wont regret switching

Keep in mind Quadrant hasn't been updated in almost a year. The scores for the galaxy nexus are probably bogus. Seems even the old Droid X is getting better scores... Still, 3k is pretty damned good for an X2.

Installed over Liberty. Wiped data, cache, dalvik cache. Loaded great. SU wasn't working so rebooted and is working fine.

Google voice works fine for me too. I skip the setup after picking the account because even on official, it would go to voicemail settings and hang there.

Thanks.
