Can someone explain the Hard-SPL Licensing?

I understand that there is some licensing mechanism behind Hard-SPL. I think it is suppose to be free to individuals, but businesses must purchase licenses. How exactly will this work? What if I get a replacement phone and need to unlock again? Will the license be tied to my phone number? My computer?

Re: Can someone explain the Hard-SPL Licensing?

im a total noob, so I have no clue if my thoughts are correct... but im pretty sure the HSPL tool that the Gods are working so hard on will be released free to everyone. And then you can use that tool as many times as you need, for however many TP2's you have.

This is just my guess. Ive been in the ipod touch hacking community for a few years, and this is how it works over there. Some genius pumps out a jailbreaking tool, and then releases it and we all go crazy and rejoyce.

correction: i guess technically speaking im a lurker.

Re: Can someone explain the Hard-SPL Licensing?

It's more than a rumor. Take a look at the GSM HardSPL. I think that's where the information and associated questions are stemming from.

Re: Can someone explain the Hard-SPL Licensing?

Technically, I don't think they can charge for it. It is modified HTC code, so the owners are HTC.

Re: Can someone explain the Hard-SPL Licensing?

For example, here is the page for the Topaz GSM unlocker:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520312

THIS IS NOT THE RHODIUM UNLOCKER!!!
I am just trying to give you an example of their license and instructions. It is tied to the individual, but assuming you just broke/replaced the phone I'm sure they'd be happy to help. They simply don't want people making a service out of unlocking phones using their software and hard work.

Re: Can someone explain the Hard-SPL Licensing?

The info about licensing for the HSPL came straight from CMONEX. The latest excuse of why the unlocker isn't released yet is because they are waiting for the licensing server to be working. That's right people...the HSPL is finished, tested , and ready for release. We're just waiting for this crap now. It's always somthing...

Re: Can someone explain the Hard-SPL Licensing?

Well, I'm one for licensing... prevents every Tom, D1ck and Habib from going into the unlocking business. Won't stop the smart ones, just the dumb ones.

Re: Can someone explain the Hard-SPL Licensing?

So they are licensing it. Right. I'll just pass that on to HTC and see how they feel about it.
