+<h3>Contributors</h3>

+<li>Ross Schulman</li>
+</ul>
+<h3>Current Status</h3>
+<ul>
+<li>Kernel builds</li>
+<li>Trying to boot the kernel with <code>fastboot boot ...</code> freezes the phone, as does using <code>pmbootstrap.py flasher boot</code></li>
+<li>Trying to flash the kernel with <code>pmboostrap.py flasher flash_system</code> or <code>flash_kernel</code> results in a <code>remote:not allowed</code> error, although this may be related to a corrupted partition table on my particular device.</li>

+<h3>What have I tried so far</h3>
+<ul>
+<li>Pulling flash offsets from two different dlx ROMS. Both match each other and what we're using.</li>
+<li><code>adb push</code>ing the .img file and attempting to use <code>dd</code> to write into the system partition. Only succeeded in mangling the partition.</li>
+<li>Reflashing CM-12 just to be sure that the phone isn't totally bricked, but CM installs just fine and boots properly.</li>
+</ul>
+<h3>Some theories</h3>
+<ul>
+<li>Ross Schulman's particular HTC Droid DNA is individually broken and/or not unlocked properly (but see the ability to flash and boot multiple different CyanogenMod versions) </li>
+<li>Somehow the offsets are incorrect (haunting feeling this is it, but numbers were taken from previously mentioned CyanogenMod boot.img)</li>
+<li>The dlx doesn't actually use the m7's kernel at all (this doesn't seem plausible given the number of places that have indicated it is true)</li>
+<li>Ross is just mis-executing commands in some fundamental ways (the most likely of the bunch)</li>
+</ul>
