Well, let us know if you succeed as it will be big news for users of a lot of phones (D2G, Droid X, Droid X2 and more to come). Lots of methods have been tried, including, Pete's One Click, Droid 4 (motofail), zergrushv4 and others.

motofail seems to come close and i bet it just needs a tweek
OK, hope you can make it work! Just remember while hacking that there is no working SBF for the latest release, and you cannot SBF back to an earlier one.

Unlock Motorola Droid 2 Global

I need help. Sorry for my bad English. I am from Russia. I bought this phone, and now I can't unlock it. Are there people who have a contract with Verizon? My phone's IMEI is higher than 353650047xxxxxx and I have a problem with getting unlock code. I had a turbosim in the box, but for some unknown reason does not work:frown:

Hello
I have the same problem and I can not find a solution yet: (If anyone can help please write. Thanks in advance

Hi,
I'm going to be buying a D2G & I just want some assurance that if I sink the money into it, I wont be stuck with a " brick ". Because, income is next to none...
I have a sim from Bell, witch recently has upgraded to the HSPA/HSPA+ network ( 850/1900 mhz ). I am in Canada, & I'm just wondering that if I were to buy this phone, root, then sim unlock it, would it work? ( I'm not too concerned about the data. I'll just be using it for texting/calling. )
I apologize if I have resurrected this thread & also if this is a FAQ question... I've been trying to do my research & I haven't found much about this phone being used in Canada...

that is a problem
seems you had update 4.5.629 not 4.5.608
nothing can be done, till new sbf is found
look for these threads in my collection
Bricked. (SBF after .629 update, bootloader, etc)
Another update? 4.5.629 update.zip .629 Root Exploit Development
Has anyone who has soft bricked his phone tried this?

Thanks for the quick reply :)
I used a rom that you have posted above in the forum! I can not update to 4.5.629 when it does not exist yet. I wrote my version of the data before you flash your rom and they were ones I wrote above 4.5.608, android 2.3.3. So I think if he can do something. thank you
