Yesterday I simply mailed Motorola Developer Technical Services asking whether they provide tools for skinning motos. I knew there isn't any,but I just wanted to know will they respond to it. I've also mentioned about the modding sites developing skins. To my surprise,they did respond to me and this was the answer..

"Hi Jithin.

I am sorry, we do not support skinning our handsets currently.
Therefore we do not supply tools for doing this I am afraid.

Best regards,

Alex Ralph."


They didn't say a single word about modding sites.
Just thought of sharing this incident here Smiley

if there would be a perfect phone designed by motorola... and let's say everyone would be pleased... after a couple of years some other phone models will appear better than the "perfect" one and people like me and you will want better performance or better software... and guess what... for doing that we'll have to mod our phone... so it doesn't matter if now some certain phone model is the best... after a couple of months/years there will be a better one. it's simply technology evolution

I don't think they hate modding sites... if they hate us - they will shut us down for no time (they have the power to do that, trust me)... I think that they are "keeping us alive", because we are doing great advertisments for them..

LONG LIVE MOTOROLA Smiley

What Phil said is absolutely right I think.. Its due to the modding abilities,we are buying Moto..And motorola knows it. Else,they could have taken legal actions against all modding sites for distributing their proprietary firmwares. Right,Phil?

I think what Moto doing now can be described with a chinese phrase:close one eye open one eye(sorry,direct translation)...they just acted like modding site does not exist and do not care what modders are doing...i think Moto could be more supportive,like Google,they made SDK for their new linux platform...Moto realise that modding site are helping them to sell their phone,and they do not dare to shut the modding site down...
