RSD Lite
What's RSD
RSD stands for Remote Software
Download, but it's used to refer to the interface Motorola uses to flash the
devices and any software that implements such interface (usually software only
available for internal use by Motorola). RSD software includes RSD-NetConnected
(see installation guide and user guide),
RSD Lite (see below), Motorola Software Updater (MSU, available for costumer
use) and RSD-NPI (no further information available about it).
What's RSD Lite
RSD Lite is a firmware-flashing
application by Motorola. RSD is able to flash two kinds of firmware formats:
- SBF Files
- SHX Files (for an older format called HS, unrelated to
the Milestone)
RSD Lite vs. RSD-NetConnected
It seems one of the main differences
between RSD Lite and RSD-NetConnected is that the latter has DBS support, which
means it is able to cryptographically sign data blocks on the phone when the
correct credentials are available (but it's only middleware, since the
particular DBS code to be written to the phone is fetched from the DBS server
at Motorola). RSD Lite, on the contrary, only seems to be able to flash
firmwares. Another difference is that RSD-NetConnected is able to automatically
unlock Subsidy Locked phones, but only if a hardware dongle is connected to the
PC and the correct credentials are entered. On the other hand, RSD Lite isn't
able to unlock Subsidy Locked phones (it will silently fail to write over
protected areas).

User [mbm] has created a Linux
program that might be able to flash SBF files into the Milestone. It has been
tested successfully with the Droid and Milestone. Check it out here.
