More shocking news in from the cell phone community. Motorola and Verizon have apparently decided to bring the hammer down on the Android modding community with the introduction of eFuse. One of the big draws of the Droid X is it's use of Android 2.1, an open-source and highly customizable OS. With eFuse, if you make any changes to the OS or firmware that it can't certify as factory original, it "kills" the phone requiring a hardware fix to reactivate. Normal rooting may not be able to get around this as it starts certification before the bootloader so it will detect *any* changes.
Needless to say, the natives are restless...
