I have a verizon motorola droid. I have no issues loading my apps onto it for testing/debugging. The only issue I run into is not being able to find a 1.5 or 1.6 ROM to test my apps on older devices. The phone will not need to be rooted but if you want to switch between 2.0, 2.01, 2.1, or 2.2 you will need to root it.

I'm looking doing some Android development, and I'm wondering what would be a good test device, and whether it should be unlocked. My current cell service is with Verizon, and I could no doubt save several hundred if I get a Verizon phone -- is that a good idea or will I likely have problems loading test code onto the phone or getting access to all features of the phone? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
