unlocked bootloader

Products

We’re happy to announce that the MOTOROLA ATRIX™ HD will be available in a Developer Edition and also be a supported device in the Bootloader Unlock program. It has the same features and specs as the regular MOTOROLA ATRIX HD, but allows the infinite customization possibilities offered by an unlockable bootloader.  Unlocking a bootloader isn’t for everyone, but for some, it’s a must-have.

For a full list of devices that come with an unlockable bootloader, check out the motorola.com/unlockbootloader page, where you’ll also find step-by-step instructions to unlock your device. Contact @MotorolaSupport on Twitter, or the Owners’ Forum for questions you may have.

You should only unlock the bootloader if you’re comfortable with the process and know exactly what you’re doing, since you will be voiding the warranty and risking data and functionality loss.

While unlocking a bootloader isn’t for everyone, for some people, it’s a must-have.  Which is why we’re so happy to announce that a special Developer Edition of the DROID RAZR M is now available (or available for pre-order, depending on when this is posted). The device comes packed with all the same features and specs as the DROID RAZR M while also offering  the infinite customization possibilities offered by an unlockable bootloader.

Additionally, the DROID RAZR HD will also soon be available as a Developer Edition. For a full list of devices that come with an unlockable bootloader, check out the motorola.com/unlockbootloader page.  There, you’ll also find step-by-step instructions to unlock the bootloader on your device.  Contact @MotorolaSupport on Twitter, or the Owners’ Forum for questions you may have.

You should only unlock their bootloader only if you’re comfortable with the process and know exactly what you’re doing, since you will be voiding the warranty and risking data and functionality loss.
Make sure to pick up your Developer Edition of DROID RAZR M and tinker to your heart’s content!

We have some news for the community of people interested in unlockable/relockable bootloaders. Today, we announced a step forward in Europe with the availability of an unlockable version of our most in-demand product: the Motorola RAZR™ Developer Edition. This solution allows us to continue meeting our carrier and regulatory obligations, but also meets the needs being expressed by our developer community.

In the coming months, we also plan to introduce an unlockable developer device in the United States through MOTODEV, Motorola’s global developer network. Stay tuned to Motorola’s Developer site for additional info.

EU-based consumers can pre-order the Motorola RAZR Developer Edition through the Motorola Shop. Post-purchase, the MOTODEV site will contain all support info for unlocking, relocking and locating build files, as well as access to additional developer resources. The Developer Edition will have all the same great features as the Motorola RAZR: an impossibly thin design, hyper-vibrant Super AMOLED Advanced display, KEVLAR(R) fiber and more.

Ice cream and bootloaders and Motorola – oh my!

October 24, 2011 : BY Motorola

Without a doubt, the Ice Cream Sandwich upgrade and bootloaders are two of the hottest topics in our world right now, and we want to make sure you know where to go to get the latest information on each.

Ice Cream Sandwich: Check out the Motorola Android Software Upgrade News page on our Support Forum for the latest information, including products slated for the upgrade and the timing of those upgrades.

Bootloaders: It’s our plan to offer an unlockable/relockable bootloader, currently found on the Motorola XOOM, in future software releases starting later this year, where operator and channel partners will allow it. Going forward, check out MOTODEV, the Motorola developer network, for the latest information.
