I can't think of any other PPC issues that I have seen so much internet speculation over in recent times. I see so many people just blurt things out that they have no idea about. I really urge anyone that has any (actual) knowledge about how we can get this working to come forward if for nothing more than just give a little push so that the really driven people of this site (at a minimum) can make this work. I think that if we gt someone from Broadcom to shed some light on the subject that we would really get some where on this.=D> Lets go PPC Geeks!

I'm not really sure how to take this post, however I will asssume it was meant in a positive manner.
I have been working on this issue for a while, and have tried numerous front end approaches that have been successful in other attempts to hack various items. However I can say this, as an embedded developer I have discovered that the initialization calls to the BCM4325 are not made in our TP2 cdma devices at the time of bootup. If I had a board support package for this phone I would be able to make the correct calls to the microcontroller, and compile a new bootloader as long as I could get it signed by a cert. Thats in Olinex's department though, and I'm not sure they're working on it though. So as a previous poster said, it's probably going to remain locked until Sprint or Verizon decide to compete with the GSM versions of this phone or the iDevice. It's there, but just not turned on at the bootup of the device. It's not off my plate though.
I have board support packages for the microcontrollers on the TP2 and SDK's for the BCM4325 , and am working on getting other development resources together, however Qaulcomm is not very forthcoming with their stuff. So if anywone can offer any assistance in getting additional items together, I'm sure we can do this. I know how to do it, I just dont have all the tools.
