Good News!!!! - General Topics

now i didnt red this on facebook myself but i found this in the sensation thread...
"There has been overwhelmingly customer feedback that people want access to open bootloaders on HTC phones. I want you to know that we've listened. Today, I'm confirming we will no longer be locking the bootloaders on our devices. Thanks for your passion, support and patience," Peter Chou, CEO of HTC
postet at the official fb page of HTC
if it is true its great news for all of us htc fans
if it is wrong please forgive me for posting i know you guys have been having trouble getting root and thought you would like to hear and look into it more

That's old news bro.

Yeah this happened a while back. But I was browsing the sensation forums and one of the guys posted a reply from htc that confirmed they were working on a retroactive way of unlocking the currently locked phones.

If you look at their twitter feed, they say the same thing about unlocking them. however nothing has come of this as of yet. Hopefully they live up to the promise.

Anyone want to buy my Galaxy 4G?

Because honestly, the development sucks on this phone. Also, it appears any kind of development for this has been abandoned....I just can't keep a phone that I cannot modify..and yes, I am too busy/ignorant to learn the development on my own..
Please do not flame me, I am being straight up
Thanks
Wah. Don't complain about people not developing for it when you are too lazy to do it yourself

I agree with you that's why I got me the Nexus S 4G and dump T-Mobile and their bull mofos where giving me edge every 2 weeks since I got the SGS4G ... and never gave me my mail in rebate ... also they give more promotion power to crap phones like that Nokia. I think if I saw 1 ad for this phone it was a miracle ... but that's my beef with T-Mobile ... back to the phone I think it could have been great. But I'll again compare it to the Sega Dreamcast bad ass died young ...

I'm the same way. So as to why that guy is being a jack ass to you is the real question here... like has he done anything to help the SGS4G community? I don't think so... and the ass trying to shut down the thread mike has made. Probably has not heard of freedom of speech?

Hey Mike.
Thank you for not posting this in the dev section.
Guys relax, if you aren't interested in buying the phone, don't respond.
Like mentioned already I would look at craigslist to sell the phone. Hit me up on twitter and let me know if its still for sale i will tweet it for you and see if there are any takers.
Everyone else, We are still just really waiting on some final mods within the CWM. Once that is all figured out then ROM's will come out.

Unlocked Bootloader OTA in August

Well, it looks like HTC is gonna make me eat my words.
http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=10150305151453084
**We’re thrilled to announce today that software updates to support bootloader unlocking will begin rolling out in August for the global HTC Sensation, followed by the HTC Sensation 4G on T-Mobile USA and the HTC EVO 3D on Sprint. We’re in the testing phase for the unlocking capability now, and we expect it to be fully operational by early September for devices that have received the software updates. We'll continue rolling out the unlocking capability over time to other devices as part of maintenance releases and new shipments.**
How about using that search feature? Did we really need another thread about this? Like the other 3 don't get the message across?

How did I flame him by saying to use the search feature and telling him we really didn't need another thread on this topic because there are at least 3 already that were created before his? Umm that's not flaming.. I wasn't rude or nasty. I just said "how about using that search feature? Did we really need another thread on this topic? Like the other 3 didn't get the message across?" How is that flaming him? I didn't name call or put him down in anyway, just it seems in this forum(sensation) people create more duplicate threads then the other device sections I frequent. It clutters up the forum with redundant information and makes it tougher to shift through all the same crap to find a useful thread.

Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
You know I have noticed more and more rude and sarcastic and flaming remarks as of late. I wonder if short tempers and faultfinding could be attributed to the following:
1. Locked Boatloader ( No definite time frame for resolution)
only vague promises and comments
2. No permanent root(temp root only)
A. No S=off for the majority so no custom roms etc.
3. Htc making vague statements and time frames(even the last blurb gave no real time frame for the US Sensation) and no realistic end in sight.(Hypothetically at least 2 months or more away, at least) Which leads to Feelings of hopelessness..
4. A great phone but many many issues(lots of returns and replacements)
5. Indecision as to whether to keep the phone or not.
Just some thoughts I know I have felt this way and if some of the above were addressed and accomplished I would have a better feeling about keeping the device and a better outlook about the situation in general.
Lets not take the circumstances surrounding the phone out on each other.

The point was good, the netiquette questionable. People just don't get "text" is NOT fully expressive. What do they say about not being able to have a picnic w/out ants?

(Tools) Alpharevx S-0FF or F-0FF

Lol mod delete this.
I'll admit the op had some rage in it. Although people are wondering why they killed a team and then haven't released. Maybe I was wrong, but I know a lot of people were thinking the same ****. Anyways, give us a reason you have yet to release the exploit or why not.share with other.devs to get this done in a reasonable amount of time.

Team Freedom, please continue your work. Obviously, alpharevx team enjoys not releasing. It's seems to me alpharevx.team is waiting to have HTC release the OTA unlocked bootloader. So they can claim they unlocked the bootloader HTC released lol. Anyways, keep acting like dicks and not releasing the s-0ff being pompus. So S-0ff or F-0FF. You are a dying breed with new policies on unlocked bootloaders.

Now your talking trash
Usually, I find experienced users who refuse to cut people slack the most annoying. This is beyond annoying, though.
You're demanding to see someone else's work before they think it's ready. Work that they're doing for the community. Work that you put nothing into.
They'll put it out when they want to. Or, they can decide to never put it out. It's not for me to judge. I'm grateful that talented devs have taken an interest in my phone.
I've stayed away from most of the impatient conversations so far but what you're saying is ridiculous.
Sent from my **** using XDA Premium App
I gave it a THANKS for the play on forum labeling procedures and for his outrage at why Alpharev has taken so long. I don't actually remember ever reading any reason from Alpharev specifically saying why they haven't released S-OFF yet if they indeed do have an exploit.
I HAVE seen a lot of reasonable people,, reasonably assuming that the exploit must not be stable enough to release. Seems a bit weird that AlphaRev doesn't want to play nice with other teams to get this thing done faster.
I think the thread is out of place and probably should be locked soon enough but thanks OP for saying things that many of us have been thinking.
hahhaa what a morron... close thread please!

I think you droidskulls missed my point...S-off has been out a week and my point IS, that there's been no time to HONESTLY develop a better rom...
