Wouldn't it also mean losing the sd slot for that matter?

Presumably, yes. And you'll be stuck with all the bloatware. I'll be in two minds IF it turns up.

It's curious how they seem to want to block root access.  I can understand, to a degree, why they want the bootloader locked.... But blocking root?  Why?

Is there something we're missing do you think?  Some sort of security loophole?

Have had similar thoughts about the seemingly daft decision to deactivate the SD card slot.

It was a serious security hole in the Android backup & restore process that allowed root. Google patched it in the code so obviously any future updates for the San Diego phone have the exploit patched. It's nothing Intel, Orange, Xolo etc are doing and they certainly are not trying to prevent us from rooting.

Looks like Jelly Bean is really going to come

Here is a conversation between a Xolo user and Xolo support which I found on a facebook Xolo x900 group

"Dear Sir,
Everyone is saying Xolo x900 will not get jelly bean update. Is that true?
Please, I'm waiting for your positive answer.
Thanks."

Future-how long?

[BlueMoonRising]

How long's a piece of string?

[grizzlyflea]

In my case that piece of string is only getting shorter

[Cowgers123]

Lol

[topcat07]

Unless someone tied another piece of string to it

[Cowgers123]

Now we have 2 pieces of strong yay!

[grizzlyflea]

Time to burn the string

[flibblesan]

So the same Xolo that said they won't bring Jelly Bean to the X900 have now decided they will? Does anybody at Lava/Xolo know for definite?

What a mess.

[Cowgers123]

I agree it is a mess. Just need a simple answer. Lol ....

probably, as they have already made it and that was quite some time ago. They just haven't released it yet.

[BlueMoonRising]

They have made it, since Intel have been using it for months now. I can't see any earthly reason they couldn't have already released it. I may be wrong(I hope so anyway) but I've got the sneaking suspicion that they couldn't be bothered with the inevitable CS calls when people mess it up so have abandoned us. The bean counters have spoken...

[utternoob]

What could we mess up though?
