Motorola Droid A855 Upgrade to Droid A955 Keypad?

Keep us updated on your progress.... Because I was wondering the same thing, because I really don't like how close the keys are together on the hardware keyboard.... I have big thumbs and always hit more than one key when I use it

I guarantee it wont work.

If its that big of a deal why not just get a Droid 2 and have all the benefits of an upgraded phone?

Ah, all the benefits including....a locked bootloader

I guess....I would rather have all the hardware upgrades of the D2 personally. I have the X now and could care less that the bootloader is locked, I can do everything I need to with it, any mods I want, overclocking, custom ROM and theming and the phone screams. There is nothing I could do with my old D1 that I cant do with the X.

I think people make a much bigger stink about the bootloader just because....

Do you think this would happen? Basically this would be my findings indefinitely if this happened, making me just put a Milestone keypad back in it's place.

Ah. good.

Just to avoid any problems incurred with my personal ESN mobo, I will first attempt to put the keyboard into a D1 with a bad ESN, this should avoid all problems with losing my main phone. God knows I have enough of them from parts phones in that cell parts bin.

Well that product was just the keys and not the board and ribbon. So I will keep an eye out still for the whole setup.

This picture shows what I thought would be the actual keyboard. I was under the impression the "keyboard" was just glued to the phone and a ribbon cable (from the ribbon harness) plugs into it. Are you saying the ribbon is permanently attached to the keyboard and the keyboard is more than just what is shown?
