Re: [PSA]Bootloader, recovery, and kernel lockdown? Confirmed.

Was looking so forward to this phone as well. Unfortunately it's a deal breaker for me though. At least until hopefully someone can help solve rooting.

I have to agree with uofajac, I hate being stuck on A TPII but at least i can custom the phone the way i want it..... maybe ill find me a cheap EVO 4G phone...

EVO 3D Deal breaker for now

Re: [PSA]Bootloader, recovery, and kernel lockdown? Confirmed.

Aren't they locked down at the carrier's request (or requirement)? In which case complaining to them would be usless. I'm guessing its a done deal anyway??

Deal breaker for me too...

probably.....I'm sure w/ data usage continually rising, Sprint may want to nip the tethering. But someone else had a good point....with all the leaks lately, rooted EVOs (and other HTC phones) are getting updates they normally would not get, causing a possible loss of sales for new handsets.

I'm surprised more ppl are not lashing out @ Sprint

Re: [PSA]Bootloader, recovery, and kernel lockdown? Confirmed.

Is there another phone with equal specs on any carrier? If there is a comparable phone, then this is absolutely a deal breaker.
