- 2 locked status codes
- 2 unlocked status codes
- VENDOR FLASH MODE?!?!?!?!?!?!? HOLY HELL!!!!!!
- Work in progress battery stat detector?!?!
- A whole crapload of text related to device unlocking!

I noticed this looking through also... didn't want to excite anyone.

Out in the open now I guess.

Those are all partitions which we see in the fastboot files.

By the way those Customer Verizon MOT_AP stuff you see are the signatures on the files.

Signatures? Odd. There are only a few that share the same endings.

It looks to me like Moto is trying to get a way for us to unlock the device. If it's possible, maybe there's some way to enter Vendor Flash Mode.

It's possible they're throwing us a few hints a la Samsung, but I wouldn't get too excited just yet. Remember, this is apparently an early engineering build, as evidenced by all the Chinese language stuff in there, the early timeframe of it, possibly the odd build number, and certainly the fact that it was pulled within hours and they said it was a mistake. Granted, it's quite possible it was a "mistake", but I would expect things referring to an unlocked bootloader to be present in software intended only for engineering devices. Can it get us anywhere? Again, maybe, but for now just be glad to have fully functional Jellybean. It runs great, everything works, and the phone is no longer noticeably slower than my S3, which is saying alot because the S3 rips.

Chinese? There's not any Chinese, that's just because the hex code is being represented in ANSII.

Also, other than the status codes, anything related to unlocking the device is commented out.

There are some things in the software that are Chinese. There is a Chinese Input.apk, for example.

check for chineese in language & input under "MOTO Chinese input" i unclicked mine.

That's even included on the Razr M and HD.

Hello zeklandia, 

 

Do you have any progress or additional information about this ? I've checked what's inside the files like you did but i have no specialized logic to do the job. 

[Zeklandia]

Neither do I, but I have noticed that in one of the files it lists several different boot modes, including factory ones. Maybe somebody with more experience can tear this apart.
