Not yet. Only the EU variant has unlockable bootloader so we'll just have to wait and see what we can learn from that version. Hopefully it will help other variants.

[Q] Update for locked devices

Hey,
I got the 8X from Bell in Canada (same as AT&T in the US). Anyone knows when the update's going to be released?
Also, would unlocking my phone with an online service make my phone an international unlocked phone? Or would it still be a Bell phone but unlocked?

You should be more specific. Which update? What version do you have at the moment?
AFAIK the latest version currently is 8.0.10211.204.

It should make it an international unlocked phone. But note this is only a simlock, other lock types like interop-, root-, full-unlock are not yet made (if even possible) for windows phone 8. Only developer unlock is currently possible.
Also, be sure to be careful which site you use, others in the forum experienced difficulties: thread 2101075

Sorry about that, by update I did mean Portico, I'm still running 8.0.9903.10.
So by unlocking my phone, would it allow me to perform an OTA update?

Got my AT&T update today. So I would think that yours is coming soon. As far as unlocking your phone, I don't think that will make any difference as far as the update is concerned. The update will still come from Bell.
Yea, it doesnt matter whether its unlocked or not. The update still comes the same way

P905 rom into a P905M device?

Anyone knows if can I flash a P905 rom into a P905M device? I see no differences between them since both are LTE capable.
Thanks in advance.

No one has any experience on this matter?
I have never tried this, but flashing a ROM for the wrong version usually bricks the device, I wouldnt recommend trying.

At&t variant unlock bl

Can this one be unlocked bootloader? And the steps rooted and ROM? Anyone know what quarter we see Nougat?

On At&t variant you can unlock bootloader, steps to root is similar to every other phone, flash twrp and then superSU. You cannot install a custom ROM on the at&t variant unless you convert to another model. I wouldn't ever expect nougat to come to the at&t variant, once again, convert and flash nougat ruu for the us unlocked variant
But there is a slim chance for Nougat?

I believe they actually made a statement saying that they would only update non-htc phones somewhere on a Twitter comment @att

S10e G970U snapdragon Root 2023?

I recently bought this phone and didn't know that this model G970U is the US T-mobile version so it's **** useless to me + network status locked because I live outside US and I hope if there any way to root it but for free ofc!!!
Sorry, Not for Free! Besides later firmware updates locked out the ability to root.

I believe the Japan carrier branded phones have the bootloader locked and unable to to unlocked. As such the only thing you may be able to do is flash firmware from another phone model. Please be warned that some of the carrier branded phones have different hardware features and may not work with other firmware models.
