Thanks Warped1987!

Just going kinda line by line it seems pretty close to what I have now. Is there a place where someone has listed the line by line or details on the differences between the ROMs that are available?

From what I understand, the makers of those apps pay verizon to pre load them on the phone. Verizon makes a quick buck,99% of people who buy phones don't care about the bloatware, and we're the complaining 1%.

yeah, a huge percentage of people buy these smart phones just for the TXT, calling, and maybe install a cool app or two...well that in my opinion, is not what smart phones are all about. And having all this bloatware shouldn't be what it's all about either, taking up all this space, and not allowing me to do with the phone as I please.

So, I uninstalled Bootstrap. Using Estrong, I don't see the hijack file in /preinstall or system/preinstall.

I may have to SBF... but I would prefer to use Estrong to delete what I don't need, any ideas?

The hijack file is under the recovery folder in system/preinstall
Battery pull a couple times, see if custom recovery pops up
And you did delete the bootstrap logwrapper and rename logwrapper.bin to logwrapper, right?
If all those are done, and clockwork's gone, I think that's it.
There's an adb way but I have no clue how to run that (tried once, computer...refused)
EDIT: There's another logwrapper under preinstall/recovery, I think that has to go aswell, not sure
Just wait, try the update without deleting that one, if it fails, delete it, give it another take
I'm out for the night now, exams...

I bought Root Explorer (I was long overdue anyway), and saw the files I needed to modify/delete. Thank you so much for the help! The phone is rebooting as we speak!

Over at motorolas website you can sign up for a "feedback program"(not 100% on the name) and you sign up for the forum at their site. You provide your info and take a quick survey and after your done they'll contact you if anything comes up.
I definitely did not expect to get an email for the soak test, they say not to talk about it but that's not gonna stop it lol

I signed up yesterday but didn't realize that there was a second registration. Most likely its too late but hopefully we all get to taste the bread soon. I'm still not sure if I want to upgrade to stock gb.
