request to unlock the bootloader for all variants of G4
as I saw a post about it I decided to create one
I clarify that I did not create the request in change.org

Dear Jun-Ho Cho,
We've started a petition yesterday on Change.org in an attempt to gain the attention of your company. We have gained over 250 signatures in less than 24 hours. There are many of us who feel it would be very beneficial to have the option to unlock the bootloaders on our G4 mobile devices. I understand you offer the option on one European model. We would like to respectfully request the option to unlock the bootloader on all models. This would benefit the development of your phone fiercely!
I am aware the results of your sales for the G4 are far below the projected sales volume. I can guarantee, the unlocking of the bootloaders would boost your sales significantly.
Please Mr. Cho, consider our request.
Respectfully Yours,

Rightfull efforts should not be taken as spams, no matter how much we have faith in the future of it..
The companies build their plans about what (not) to give their customers, not only over the demanding people but also the un-demanding people.
So, do demand. That won't kill your cat.
Just a suggestion, I would rename this topic to "Please sign the petition to LG, to unlock the bootloader for all G4 variants"
....and unlock bootloader for all but WITHOUT loose warranty !!! it's really possible ???!!!
And they can make this effort because it's daylight robbery ,scandalous, to buy a phone with a very big problem of hardware ("bootloop&dead" illness)
mine is still work but i sympathize with persons who have had this serious problem...

I respect the forum but this topic same as many other..So useless...
Look :http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/petition-to-lg-to-unlock-g4-bootloaders-t3142782
Guys keep in mind!!!! Only chans devs.LG never help ......
But good look and hello spam topic....(sorry)
I do know we are a minority here on XDA, compared to the whole mobile phone market. However I also know that many of us are asked when a friend or a relative tries to decide to a new device. So we actually have the power to influence enough amount of customers and shape the market. I, for one, have been doing this for many years. Now, there is no single person in my life with a Samsung device. I have talked them into other devices.
I know that this is a technical forum and needs to be well-organized. But in this case, just to show the power of us, customers, a few extra topic wouldn't hurt anyone.
I remember the times when companies backing off to "ok, we will honor the warranty because it is a manufacturing fault, so it has nothing to do with your device being rooted" and giving new phones to the rooted users couple years ago. And the reason behind it was the topics here, on XDA, about many people having the same problem.
So, long story short, showing how we are feeling about our devices and their companies (and also carriers sometimes) is necessary in the way I see things.
I think, more power to topics like these everywhere.
Whether you think it helps or not, switching off a light bulb that you are not using in your house, our sending a dollar somewhere in the world when you can spare it, makes a difference.
It's those people who start something that eventually save us all.
Onward.

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

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:

Thanks for the initiative and for showing us that your last petition was worth it.
We, lg users, are incredulous to changes regarding lg's posture towards the community.
I'm all in. Got nothing to lose in signing the petition.
Hope we have massive adherence from lg users.
Thx once again.

You product and sell phones. Group of your customers whishes you to do something you didn't intend to do. It's not a matter of your will - if you agree, you are to measure with thousands of dead phones. On the second hand the "pettitioners" have already bought your products. Will you agree? Of course. NOT!!!!
@wjazdbitu
Ya got nothing to lose signing the petition.
Besides, your arguments are logical.
People are not. And LG people are the ones to make that decision.

Could you specify the E980 in the list of devices on the petition. The reason I am asking this is because when Motorola released the bootloader unlocks for their flagship devices the Atrix 2 never got an unlock so I am worried they will do something similar to the users with the E980.

Good to see you're still on this. I was on board the last petition. I actually saw you were up to some more activity over on the G2 forums (Little brother just got a G2) so I was awaiting your update over here. Needless to say you haven't disappointed
Anyway I'm going to make a reddit just to upvote you. Best of luck on the LG unlock and thank you for doing this!

Oh okay. I'm worried that it will only happen for recent flagships as Motorola did
Noob here! Apologies if there's already a thread about this, but I've scoured the internet since Boost has been extremely crappy about not letting me use a phone for which I paid full-price. They wouldn't give me an unlock code when I talked to them on the phones earlier, so I sent out a support ticket although I have little hope anything will result from it. So my question to all of you is, am I going to have to bite the bullet and just go to one of those pay sites, or doesn't someone know of a workaround?
I'm generally proficient with computers and electronics, so if it's moderately complicated I should be able to manage.
EDIT: Sorry, it's a ZTE Warp 4G, not HTC.
what do you want to achieve?

Hi again
is your simcard blocked by boost mobile??
The sIM card shouldn't be, no. Even if it was, I already have my new one from Cricket with the number transferred over. I was just trying to figure out if I'd be able to unlock the phone itself so I could use it with my new service provider.
Than. You can buy a unlock code on a website or you can ask it by your provider

My provider refused to give it to me, and every pay site I've tried hasn't been able to do it.
Ah well, it was worth a shot. I've given up on it and have ordered a new phone that will be compatible with my new service. Thanks anyway!
This thread can be closed, oh great moderator!

You should research what root is, before deciding you want it.
You don't really need a "mentor" for this kind of thing. XDA is a wealth of information for the taking. Just take some time to look at the numerous guides, index threads, FAQ threads, and familiarize yourself with the concepts, benefits, risks, etc. Take the time to learn and understand before trying anything. If you feel like you've made a reasonable effort to search and research on your own and still have questions, by all means come back and post those questions for us to answer.

this man is legit
he unlocked my sprint s6 edge plus and now im using it with t mobile:good:
Thanks for the hard work but:
We all have personal stuff on our phones and giving you the root or remote access to the phone means that you can have access to our personal items , plus having access to the IMEI, MEID, contacts, pictures, remotely wiping the device or conducting a factory reset, altering operating system settings and even remotely changing the PIN for the screen lock. Not a safe way man , can't you just post it here?
Don't worry about donations, if this really works then you will get donations from us.
Thanks.
Is this legit or what people this is exactly what I need it right at this moment anybody else experience and I'm not trying to insult you I'm just trying to discern whether or not this is phishing or not... I agree with the gentleman say that there's a method to the madness then why should we go with the madness and if you willing to do it for free why don't you let us try and everything you did for me will be more than having my shiny new portable personal micro Computing device just die... thx to any into all who can shed some much better brighter light here thank you...

That's correct.
Last year I had to travel for work so I unlocked the international sim support. I haven’t renewed my contract for more than 6 months and I don’t owe Sprint any money on the phone since I purchased it cash. I called Sprint customer service yesterday and asked them to unlock my phone for the domestic sim support since I own the handset. They checked my account and said since I own the device and I’m off the contract (month to month) then they will do it but it is going to take 4~5 days to generate the case and send the signal.
The support guy said he is going to send the domestic unlock signal to my phone. I believe if you don’t owe them money on the phone then they will unlock it for free.
Just wanted to share it with you guys.

So I got a great deal from sprint about half off a S20u And I jumped thinking I'd be able to root it. it's already been 30 days and I'm going to return the device since I thought it would be able to be rooted. will a root ever be available. What device can I purchase from a US carrier that is able to be rooted and remove the bloat.

Don't hold your breath waiting for Samsung to offer an unlocked bootloader on any US variants. There are no US Carrier Branded or US Unbranded devices which can be unlocked. If you want no bloatware then the US Unbranded device is an option but if you need root you'll have to consider a Snapdragon International or Exynos Global variant. On these devices Carrier Aggregation and Warranty Repair would be challenging at best.
Dose one plus make devices that ship with unlockable bootloader?

Will the bootloader be unlocked in the future, is that a possibility, haven't been on the forums in 7-8 years. This phone is incredible, but the bloatware makes it useless kills battery can't disable apps. Someone help im over 30 days and don't know if I wanna return. I'm paying $15USD/MONTH FOR 18 MONTHS with buyout for $250USD so it's quite an offer to refuse. But I need root access and a custom rom on THIS baby!

The only one who can answer this is a well placed Samsung Executive, certainly not a CSR. No one has a crystal ball in this regard but I doubt it's going to happen anytime soon. Bloatware is the downside when you acquire a Carrier Branded Device and the $$$ you saved lose their value in the long run. Nowadays most carriers offer decent pricing on month to month prepaid without a long term commitment. Better off IMHO to wait a few months for price drops and feedback before purchasing any device. Saving a couple hundred on a smartphone you really weren't suited for doesn't add up.

Well, it answers the OPs question, if it's legit.

So, your entire post was to show YOU have root, but not to provide any information at all on how you did it...when OP (and others, myself included) would like to know how it's done?

point is to show its absolutely possible. And I cannot post something that A, isnt my method to post and B, its not allowed to be posted on xda. So take it how you want doesnt matter to me.

Wow. Disrespecting elliwigy is not good. That guy has provided things for the public in the past and thats how you do him? Its because of people like you that xda gets tainted. Hell I wouldn't release it.
And one last thing:
ITS NOT HIS WORK TO SHARE!! READ

Who are you, his girlfriend? Go away.
To me it just seemed like a post bragging about him having root when others can't get it and obviously wanna know to do so. But if he can't or won't share how he achieved it, then whatever...it is what it is. But nowhere did I see him say he needed you to defend him, especially AFTER he already responded.
I'm done with the topic now though... moving on...

just because someone achieves something and let ppl know it is possible but cant provide details for understandable reasons such rules is not in any way bragging about anything.
I dont make the rules on here, in fact I support the rules and enforce them even considering I am a moderator.
Just because someone doesn't want to tell you details (because its simply not allowed) doesn't give you the right to judge people and post negatively about them in public. If you have any issues with me or anyone else I suggest you send them a PM next time.
Showing people that it is possible gives hope to those who feel it is imppssible and hopefully encourages them to keep at it.
I have no reason to lie to anyone and as you can tell uf you did any research on my past activities/posts you should see that every time I achieved root I posted freely to XDA so everyone could take advantage of it. So hopefully you understand if I could post publicly I would have already done so.
I did try to help people out and had them PM me and was advised not to do so even via PM because it is a paid service of which selling these types of services are not allowed on XDA. It is a paid service because the means to unlock the bootloader requires a purchase from a third party. There is no way to provide a "free" method as well as said service is device specific so there is no universal method and each unlock is tied to one device.
Think of it similar to those websites that offer sim unlocks. They are paid services tailored to one specific device. Paid services are not allowed on XDA since typically people use these methods to profit and in the past there have been a number of shady schemes hence why rules were formulated.
I hope this clears things up and you refrain from name calling and negatice remarks to people such as your last comment I quoted.

Instead of complaining take the initiative and hit someone up on telegram that you know has done this and im sure they would be glad to guide you too the proper place. Like elliwigy said it’s against xda rules to post such stuff here so why complain about it here. There are threads in s10 and s20 threads with people posting stuff for US unlocked bootloader phones. Hit those people up on telegram or outside of xda because people want too abide by the rules of xda and xda does not want this stuff posted on their forums.
