it is rumored indeed, but i believe that 10.000 request make a beter motive than 4.000
we just have to keep rasising the pressure against htc.

I signed it AND I tweeted it. Sparky will sign it when He gets home...(even though He has NO CLUE what a bootloader is )

Looks like its unlocked now
I use swype so expect bad grammar and errors

I wish now they had an update to unlock all the bootloaders. I can't for the love of whoever you pray to root my damn G2. And yes, I did try like 3 different methods, and yes, I did successfully root other phones.

We made it

It really is awesome news. How will it work for currently released phones with locked bootloaders though? I really want to buy a sensation.

I had to laugh when I read this!
Since it's German, I'll try to roughly translate it:
Slowly, this is no longer funny.
My son has (better say 'had') an iPhone and was happy with it (although after the firmware update, it was somehow totally slow, but I don't know much about such things).
But after he was flamed several times in the school and was recently beat up by a group of (as he said) Android rowdies, he wants to give it up and in the meantime switched back to his old Nokia.
Now he wants an Android phone and I can flog the iPhone on Ebay. Realy great!

I lol'd.. Android Rowdies... new type of clique violence in schools now I guess then!
Thanks for the translation!
haha
................
Too bad here in the city more people use iCraps. I think I need a special skin that makes my N1 look like an iPhone, so I don't get beat up by iPhone rowdies.
Haha yeah scary bunch they are don't worry though they wont beat you they think they got an app for that and I think they prefer the term iRowdies haha

Why have you started a new thread when there's obviously others exactly the same?
The answer is no, not at the minute. Google or a search within the site would have told you that though. Even if it was available, nobody is going to spoon feed you the steps, you'll have to use the sites stickies and search tools like everyone else.
Audio is right, think logicly, why should you have to search so much for such an big thing (if it would exist),
my hint for the next time: just use google, do it, as long as its free
seriously, you dont have to wait till someone postet an awnser !
I had also the same question like you but 5 mins. googling and I got every information that I needed !
Is this it?

No links on that page what so ever. It talks about the HD7 as if it's already got Android on it. I think it's a fake website that just wants you to download some worthless pc programs that are all malware

i know that most people here are members at other sites as well. I thought i would just inform people that android central forums are under attack. If they are getting attacked then other sites may be getting hit as well... its a heads up to be careful about the places we go to. The best method to make sure we never get an infection is to never turn on the pc to start with.

Symantec has cautioned about the BlackHole toolkit, which has a powerful set of exploits and is spreading like wildfire. In a release issued on Monday, Symantec said that at present, it is the most prevalent exploit toolkit in the wild and can easily be compared with the likes of Neosploit and Phoenix in terms of the number of affected users.
Symantec recently reported the increasing utilization of sophisticated toolkits by criminals who would otherwise lack the technical expertise for cyber attacks, fueling a self-sustaining, profitable, and increasingly organized global economy.
Toolkits account for 61 per cent of all threat activity on malicious websites
In recent times, BlackHole has clearly emerged as the most used toolkit among hackers. The following IPS graph proves this fact, since more than 100,000 malicious hits are reported each day:
So, is LulzSec at it again?

Fake Twitter Account
I am definately not the one behind the twitter account, in fact i don't even have a personal account. I do not feel the need to update others on what I am eating, when i am working out, or whatever crap others post on that stupid site.
Thank you,
God bless you all
and sorry about your jealousy issues due to the fact that I have my phone already.
You're an idiot. Your parents are probably idiots, too.

Yeah, i thought it was pretty bunk that he made a "worlds first" out of it when I loaded the bootloaders onto my phone about a full day before he got involved.

You better be getting a slice of that $40 pie he is selling. Honestly, I think that is absolute garbage. This guy is taking advantage of many users offering what should be a donation service because of the work you and others have done.

Now Mobiletechvideos provides a professional grade, top notch technical service. He runs a business and that's his source of income. We text each other for technical advice once in a while. Even if I wanted to, I could not possibly keep up with his workload and do my own job as a hospital electronics technician. We have a deal worked out where he will eventually buy Rebellos a replacement phone via PayPal donations. He's a guy running a business. I look at the business aspect as a downfall of his ability to support himself with technical expertise. All I'm saying is technically its not a worlds first as Android isn't booted and I was running the bootloaders first.
