If anyone was curious I wrote a letter to Motorola, I know it may be a snowballs chance in hell they work with us but its worth a try right?
Ill be posting their reply here.
Hello,
I have a Droid X that I would like to unlock and install custom Android images on, however to my dismay I noticed that the boot loader is encrypted preventing it from being unlocked. As this is my hardware I have purchased, I respectfully request that I be given the information I need to unlock my device's boot-loader. The action of locking the phone in such away goes against the opensource spirit of Android which your device uses.
I have also contacted Google regarding this matter, and am looking forward to your cooperation.
Thank you
Maybe they will lake the apple route and mail u a phone case lol!

You're wasting your time. Motorola has every right to do what they're doing. Asking nicely isn't going to change their mind. Especially when you're implying a threat by mentioning that Google was contacted. If you ever looked at the phone, you would notice it says "with Google" on the back, meaning the phone is approved by Google.
Hi,
I just came across this thread at engadget.com:
http://www.engadget.com/2012/01/06/motorola-unlocked-bootloader-petition/
It's just another petition but for me reason enough to sign it. I think this should interest you, too, when you are still looking for some more freedom!
http://www.change.org/petitions/motorola-mobility-inc-unlock-all-smartphone-bootloaders-2#
I already signed that. Though it is probably not gonna do anything for our MS2, I still think all Moto owners should sign it.
Signed that one too. I still don't give up hope for Motorola to make me stay as a customer
Hello everybody!
I'm a LG G2 user, but i'm trying to unite all dissatisfied LG users to sign up to my petition, for more informations check my G2 thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/petition-possibility-to-unlock-t2832013) or just read the quote from it:
Hello!
I don't know, maybe someone remembers me from P880 forum
Whatever - in that time the 4X HD had locked bootloader which no one was able to unlock it, so I decided to make a petition about it (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1852721). We succeed and we could unlock the bootloader via fastboot oem unlock in Jelly Bean update.
Now LG did it again, their G2 and G3 flagships as well as some other devices are locked as hell again. I decided today to reopen my petition and share this message to You guys so maybe we could get the unlockable bootloader again, or at least a way to unlock it like it is for example HTC phones.
Here's the link to the petition:
http://www.change.org/petitions/lg-...opportunity-to-unlock-bootloader-in-lg-phones
Let's have at least some hope for it, so we could get easier development and also G3 development could rise.
My reopened petition has 4031 supporters (for now) so it should be a little visible

Individual emails have also the meaning. If You have a minute, please send emails to these addresses, also don't forget to mention about our petition:

(to moderators: yes, it's my copy/paste i make on few LG phones' sections, I don't spam, I just share the message to LG users and want to do something for community as I did in the past)
EDIT: I'm posting in G3's petition thread to prevent (my) spam, also G3 community is the most active, so that's why I decided to keep posting and updating there:

Great idea! I'm in...

If they unlock it we will be able to flash a GPE rom and get updates directly from Google.
Is a big dilemma for them.
PLEASE READ!!!
I'm taking this action to the next level, I want to make this as public as possible, so maybe LG finally will do something!
Please upvote this reddit topic on /r/Android, everyone has to hear about it, LG must change their behaviour like Motorola did!
Here's the link:
http://pl.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/2h8edy/support_the_petition_to_force_lg_to_release_the/
we need to push it to the mainpage!
If you want to have a chance of getting lollipop, then sign this petition!
The more signatures the more power we have over samsung!
Go onto Change.org and search for the petition (I havent posted enough to get a url)
I am new here so please tell me if I am in the wrong forum or if this post should be taken down.
It's already been mentioned here before. It won't change nothing though. Samsung is too big to listen to us little people...
Hi guys,
I've found this petition in the g 2015 forum. This petition is going to be delivered to Motorola asking them to release the blank flash files for all Motorola devices. I request all of you guys to sign it as there are chance that it'll be helpful to you some day. I'd also like to thank @kawaii.beans for starting this petition. Hopefully Motorola does listen to us and releases the required files.
Here is the quote from the original thread:

Hi ,
As we all know that there are a lot fo motorola devices which have got their gpt partition and bootloader corrupted due to some ota update , flashing , wrong flash etc, which reduced their device to a paper weight . Most of them(including me) were unable to reverse the corruption due to the lack of required files . It may take motorola simply 2-3 hours to release these files for almost all devices but they have chosen to stay silent and do nothing . It feels really bad to throw away your phone costing hundreds of dollars due to a minor corrpution which can be fixed easily by Motorola. Its time for us to speak , its time for us to ask for what we deserve . Motorola should listen to us !!
Sign this petition on Change.ORG with as many signs as possible so that we can get our devices back ! Please co-operate .
Maybe this havent happened to you yet but may be it will one day , we all need to come together and ask for what we deserve from Motorola. Sign the petition so that Motorola will hear our voices.:crying::crying:
