Most you have probably heard about the Droid X and its eFuse, which prevents messing with the bootloader.  Sadly, that is still giving Android fans trouble, but they have recently gotten one step closer.  A procedure for rooting the Droid X has been discovered, allowing people to modify things on the phone that cannot normally be accessed.  Will this first step eventually allow people to load custom ROMs onto the Droid X?  Only time will tell.  Check out the step by step instructions to root a Droid X here.

After weeks of details leaking out, the Droid X has finally been made official at a Motorola Event. Beyond the normal smartphone specs, the Droid X brings with it HDMI out, DLNA, and a 4.3 inch screen (Full specs below). It will ship with Android 2.1 with a 2.2 update coming sometime during the summer. Skype will be integrated on the phone, and Swype will be the default keyboard onboard. This phone is coming soon, with a July 15th release date. It will be priced at $199 with a contract after a $100 rebate.

It looks like the Samsung Galaxy S will be released as the Samsung Vibrant through T-Mobile.
