[Petition] Unlock the bootloader for the Asus TF300

Hello ASUS brothers and sisters,
I'm sorry to be invading your forums again , but we 300 Pad owners would appreciate if you would help us by signing a petition for unlocking our bootloader, just like you guys got for the Prime.
If you are interested in helping please visit the following link:
http://www.change.org/petitions/asu...oader-for-the-tf300-tablet-and-future-tablets
Please share this with everyone in the android community.
Thanks in advance
*The petition was made by user wideopn11*

Let's push for NVFLASH first.

This won't hurt to try. At least it'll let them know 300 owners are concerned with having unlocked bootloader also. But there is no proof the original petition worked for Prime. According to Asus, they had planned to unlock Prime well before petition or any talk of it was made. There's alot of legalities involved in unlocking bootloader. This is why it took a while for it to release. It isn't as simple as them just saying OK, then unlocking it for everyone. They have to cover themselves, legally, from any fraudulent warranty claims resulting from unlocking. There are alot of people who brick their device from trying out stuff and try to make warranty claims on it. Although Asus completely unlocking devices, by adding NV flash would let people who Brick their device, get it back working again. So once 300 unlocked bootloader tool does release, whenever it does, expect it to be on same conditions as prime as to where it voids your factory warranty. The tool will take your serial number and send it to Asus to put on a blacklist for people who unlocked and warranty voided now. There are also flags put onto your prime which, if prime is sent in, they will still be able to tell you unlocked, aside from serial number.
good luck. ill support the cause. ill check the link out sometime today.

Fixed the link, now you can go sign
EDIT:
Mod moved it out of the Prime forums T_T, just ignore this post then.

Thanks for the thought. I knew that would happen which is why didn't post there and a lot of others places to begin with. Maybe the MOD can help get XDA to promote it. (wishful thinking)

They have released the unlock tool already

[LG G4] [H815]- [Official Bootloader unlock by LG]

God it Exists
Thanks to the Codefire Team and thanks to LG we have from some minutes ago the official steps to unlock LG G4's Bootloader:
Here
VERY IMPORTANT
1) For now this procedure is only available for H815 International variant (but LG page it says: "We will add more devices with unlockable bootloaders unlocking permission progressively")
2) doing this will void your warranty
My advice is : we have to support codefire Team ( @autoprime @thecubed @jcase @IllegalArgument ) much stronger to have a bootloader solution that will not void warranty and give us always root availability.
Codefire Team is our real hope to be always masters of our devices
G4 with official unlocked bootloader - screens :

Would be nice backing up these partitions once(and possibly other) in order to revert to locked.
Don't have the g4(yet) but will donate for sure

Its probably worth posting this in General too!

Great. I wonder when can we root the g4?

Awesome but not being able to lock it again worries me :S.. I'll wait a little more.

For sure.
Only if Codefire can play on real devices we could have relock feature for bootloader and clean drm partition too i think

Me too, will wait alittle more. Just got the device not gonna risk without warranty that soon

LG was offering their warranty for unlocked and rooted devices... What happened now?
Not able to relock it? LG is the new Sony now with DRM and similar?
I'm very disappointed.

Unlocking BL may have side effects. If you experience an erection lasting longer than 4 hours, please call your doctor immediately...

Who does my doctor contact if he has an erection lasting more than 4 hours?

i never had a device blocked for more than two hours ...got my G4 yesterday and just made my donation 5 minutes ago cmon guys:good:

This is embarrassing to ask. Does having a locked bootloader mean you cannot flash RomManager or TWRP? or something else?
If I only wanted to root and keep OEM rom do I still need to unlock the bootloader. Im in the T-mobile G4 LG-H811

Correct, locked bootloader means no TWRP or custom recoveries.
Root is possible with a lock bootloader after finding an exploit.

Tmobile is unlocked right?

LG unlocks officially the bootloader

So it seems that LG is finally officially unlocking the bootloader.
So far only on some G4s but i think this will come also to the G3.

Hopefully this gives us a UX 4 port sooner, at least until I save up for the G4. [emoji14]

Very good news thanks LG ..but are this will come also to the G3.????

So i was just curious...
Is there anything we can't do with bump unless we have unlocked bootloader?

Maybe A different operating system like Win10. or change boot screen to remove Powered by Android?
Many possibility by unlocking Bootloader

I hope so

Here is LG's Bootloader unlock website. I guess keep an eye out here for when they add more devices, hopefully they add the G3.
http://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev?resourceId=RS00000875

So what(if any) implications will an official bootloader unlock have for those who have Bump'd? Will ROM dev's have to provide two versions of their ROMs - one for official unlock and one Bump'd?

I guess we can all use flashtools unroot unbump and start from scratch, if we do get a boot loader unlock from LG

This will never come to the US due to carrier restrictions. If you are outside of the US, there might be a small glimmer of hope.

US997 Model bootloader unlock some supported & some "NOT">>> WHAT GIVES??

US997 Model bootloader unlock some supported & some "NOT">>> WHAT GIVES??
So this is some what of an SOS in the form of a discussion..
I recently puchased the LG G6 US997 unlocked version.. At first I wasnt jumping on the root bandwagon immediately due to slow development.
As of lately things are starting to pick up so I gave it a whirl only to find out per the LG development site that my version (US997 "Z" is what LG called it) was not supported.. After multiple attempts and being advised form the LG site that I woul be locked out after 9 try's I bailed after 4..
Has anyone esle ran into this wall? If so whats the "work around"? (IF ANY)
Ive searched google for days and the dedicated thread by @autoprime and unless im missing something I keep coming up empty handed.
Any insight on this matter is extremley appreciated.. Thanks in advance:good:

No use, that version​ (US997z) is not supported!! Only the US global market variant US997 (without the z) is, and the Global Euro variant (H870)... Everyone else can't get root or bootloader unlocked...
Unfortunately, that's how LG rolls.

Didnt know that when i did mine it listed us997 no different variants thanks for the info

The exact thing happened to me. I thought I was buying the US unlocked phone. Nowhere in the software or on the box does it list the phone as US977Z. '
Turns out it's the US Cellular variant of the phone. If you'd like, commit to the bounty thread for this phone. It's our only hope.

Looks like I have the same problem with the US997U. I thought that extra U on the end just meant Unlocked, but that tiny difference is preventing me from unlocking my phone. Lame.

[bootloader Unlocked] LG G6 H870DS Custom rom and other development?

since the lge devs are allowing us to unlock H870ds. I would be great to see some port for this model too. Ive just unlocked my device and looking forward to root it using twrp. Since there are little to no ports available for ROMs I'm saving that for later. hope some would port some of the famous ROMs into this too.

where did you find the way to unlock H870DS?

Just went through the normal unlocking procedure. Devs send me the unlock bin. Ive installed some twrp but none seems to work properly.

Unfortunately, your device( Singapore, (ARROW(SINGAPORE)), LGH870DS.SEA )does not support unlocking the bootloader.

Try emailing them.
I sent them my IMIE and this Kind hearted Dev registered my device.
After than I was able to fo through remaining process of getting the unlock key. I can upload the unlock key if you want.
Anyway those devs over there knows only the community could save the company.

It's cool that they unlock boot-loader when people ask by email, but like they say in the faq, they will not have the time to treat each individual demand. If the procedure to unlock involve an unguaranteed(everybody is not sure to have it) way of doing it, it's going to be hard to have proper community support ^^'. (Btw I have too a h870DS DAC + 64gb + lineageos is kind of a dream ahahah)

Lg developer email id

I tried --> Respond :
"Hello,
Thank you for contacting us.
This email address is no longer used to respond to inquiries about unlocking the bootloader.
Please refer to FAQs on the following link:

You can find a new support email there.

Wich is [email protected]
The spam on their mail adress caused by their stupid unlock policy ^^
Btw I've seen some activity on github for the h870DS.

Much thanks!
