Ironically it will be done exactly right after everyone's 30 days are over...(in August)

not saying they won't do it..but why can't companies do things within the 30 days :/ (PS this goes for all companies)

I'm just happy they acknowledged us and gave us a date. I can wait until August/September for an unlocked bootloader.

Forgive the newbie question, but when they release the update, does that mean setting up everything on your phone from scratch? I can live with it if that is what it takes, I just thought I'd find out. I guess my question is more exactly when someone comes out with the root or whatever they call it that allows my phone to tether, will that require a reformat?

Thanks

Prolly not. You would only need to dump your data if you decide to install a custom ROM. Otherwise rooting will just grant you full access to the phone.

Thanks. I don't really store any data on my phone so that isn't a concern. I did spend quite a bit of time customizing and installing apps but I can live with that again provided it gives me the ability to tether.

don't really understand why unlocking the bootloader would take so long. it's a password.
