What 2nd-init? 2nd-int allow us to boot our custom init scripts which wasn't a easy job on a locked booloader. |

Locked bootloader? Now what the heck is it? Motorola usually locks its phones bootloader which in simple language means it doesn't allow customization. Here is where 2nd-init comes to play, this little awesome app kicks in right after the Bootloader and allows the XT to load a different, non-Stock Android. With this, you can also install a Custom Recovery, which runs from the Internal Memory, and is not ran from the Recovery Partition (remember: locked, not accessible) what does this means? That even screwing up your phone, deleting all your stuff, or screwing /system partition the phone can still get into Recovery, be recognized by RSD Lite in Bootloader Mode and be flashed with a Stock or modified Rom (more on this later) and it will come back to live normally. Thanks to this locked Bootloader, is really, really hard to Brick your XT. |

You've already messed up with your phone.
Now if something happens don't point your finger to me.
All I can do is to laugh at you, as loud as possible.
So always keep in mind that you do changes by your choice.
Thank YOUQuote:
