Those who are regular OSM readers and have followed developments for the Droid Bionic may remember that we have wondered for some time whether the Droid Bionic bootloader will come unlocked or not, for those who like to customize their smartphones. Sadly the chances of an unlockable bootloader for the Bionic seemed to worsen further when the Motorola Droid 3 was also released with a locked bootloader. However an article we spotted today has given us renewed hope of an unlocked bootloader for the Droid Bionic. It’s still good news though for those waiting for the Bionic as it would seem the odds for an unlocked bootloader are now improved. If the Droid Bionic doesn’t actually release unlocked it’s plausible to think that it will be unlocked shortly afterwards and of course Droid 3 owners may also be benefitting soon from unlocked devices.
News of the Photon 4G bootloader being unlocked by a developer came to us from Droid-Life and if you want to unlock your Photon 4G head to this XDA link. As the release of the Bionic is now rumored for early September we may not have too much wait to confirm news on its bootloader status. Are you waiting for the Droid Bionic and hoping it will have an unlocked bootloader?
