Mark explained it.
>Upon turning on the phone and registering it on the network you must agree to the EULA. The only difference between your phone and a MOTOBLUR device is that you don't have a user created login. A random login is created for you to optimize the setup experience. If you don't connect any social networking applications your phone doesn't connect with our servers.
It involves a hardware ID, and a profile that is created when the device is initially synced. It may also send a "firmware flash counter" but it wouldn't be necessary.
- bcoates 13y agoBut the OP said he was using cyanogenmod before, is he claiming that the hardware phones home even when he's not using the motorola firmware?
- fnordfnordfnord 13y agoI don't think so. I think his claim was that the hardware phones home under the Motorola firmware, and that the EULA hadn't spelled that out clearly, and that Motorola had not been as forthright as they should or that they may even have been deceptive.
