No one is sure yet only lg knows. There is no link with the info just an email which states abt unlock of bootloader in the next os update by LG.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] dfreake:
many have ask LG about unlocked boitloader and they said unlocked bootloader will come in the next os version meaning Jellybean
[LG Optimus 4X HD] juanacevedo:
From what I've read it doesn't matter if you have a euro open optimus 4x or a Taiwanese 4x, or any other country O4X, you can just flash the european files on your phone so you'll be able to unlock the phone and get jellybean.

A little update from me: https://twitter.com/CM_arcee/status/290858276038508545

We have confirmation from Ricardo Cerqueira that he'll officially support our 4X when LG releases Jelly Bean with unlocked bootloader.

LET UNLEASH THE BEAST (SOON.) :cyclops:

oh and... i'm still waiting for reply from foil (xda Nexus4 forum) who probably has access to whole LG servers, he isn't online for longer time. hope he'll come back soon and maybe help us to get the Jelly Bean alpha/beta.

[LG Optimus 4X HD] reas0n:

[LG Optimus 4X HD] Dexter_nlb:
I wouldnt be too excited about the information or statement from him.

LG has yet to provide us the open bootloader, and people do not like closed source people or companies and those keeping us from getting it.

Similar

Cerqueira has been having the source and cyanogen tree for the cm10 for our device since developer model got released, but kept it from others.

as one example, team hacksung dropped supporting new samsung devices because they would not release sources, and someone else stepped in and was of another opinion and GNII still got a CM10 public release, even if one team tried to avoid something like this from happening.

Cerqueira makes a statement with his action and words, i doubt he got many developers supporting him with actions against global companies where he can do nothing but hit those that feel most, namely the community needing support.

Do you see something similar in that statement? no matter if you are a company or a single unique person.

Keeping freedom of the open source community and just showing "we do it, because we can, we don't because you dont" is the most stupid act of any activist, not working together with the community but just against them.

Next, im sure Cerqueira, he will appear and ask for donations because of his opinion on keeping sources closed, and that if you do not pay, he will not provide you anything, although statement state "sure, i will make cm10".

He is nothing different than LG trying to keep their development private to earn money contractwise, so if you blame LG for anything, remember to blame Cerqueira for not distributing and making contributions to the community which already could benefit from that release.

sad, but true.

remember, no unlocked bootloader, no contribution from Cerqueira

it is called opensource without limitations for most developers working with it.

Politics is not one of the good arguments and a locked bootloader is a political debate and is all about money.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] RuedasLocas:
Agree with you and I had that thought before, and some others... doesn't matter.

But he's not the only "smart one", and if someone else find out the same that he did and publish it for free, just to show

that is possible and how?...

All that RC have won't be good for nothing anymore...

And in this matter things can take time but sooner or later they will appear. If not by one "hand" it will be from another.

I`ve got a question about the Update.Im from Germany and i have the DEU Version. Will i have to use this kdz thing to update or will i get an OTA update ?

Sorry for my bad english ;)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] muellersmattes:
Germany was always first to receive updates and it's the same as Euro_Open, so you'll get it when the Euro_Open is released (probably 3 days later because FOTA is always a bit delayed).
[LG Optimus 4X HD] friartuckme:
if you have the update tool downloaded from the lg website you will see a folder for lgmobile support tool - open that then click lgmobile suppor tool and connect you phone to your pc and it should automatically check for updates for you,

Is something wrong with "Linker"!

Even the V10H is not found... Due to this I start to have my doubts about V18x, V30x, etc...
[LG Optimus 4X HD] reas0n:
I said that x times, v30x links are for 2X, Black and probably 3D, not for us. v30x would be Key Lime Pie 5.0 (or Jelly Bean 4.2?) for 4X

With linker it's everything ok.

And v18x is true, these are alphas of jelly bean 4.1.2 as i said in the past, next will be v19x betas and then official v20x
[LG Optimus 4X HD] RuedasLocas:
But V18x only when Germany is selected, right? They didn't said that JB will be Euro_open?

V18x don't appear to Poland at least...
[LG Optimus 4X HD] reas0n:
Well, betas don't appear in every country's server, maybe Germans are working on that update, or..

And about that mail about unlocked bootloader in Jelly Bean: Euro Open firmware is just a basement for most european countries' firmwares, so only branded european firmwares won't be unlocked. And.. i think Jelly Bean should be released for all countries, right.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] RuedasLocas:
But based on firmware reference unbranded don't mean euro_open ( I know that as firmware is the same. Apps/functions and languages).

E.g.:

Poland:---------http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGP880/APOLBK/V10H_00/V10H_00.kdz

Euro_Open:---http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGP880/ANEUBK/V10H_00/V10H_00.kdz

Or they make some kind of confusion in those e-mails, or how they're thinking to upgrade the phone?

And why exist a difference between unbranded european phones and the so called Euro_open phones?

As far as I know, Spain, Portugal, Poland, etc... are european, and once the phone is unbranded should be open. At least following some logical sense...

Maybe I'm not smart enough... or LG is too bright :eek:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] reas0n:
I had Polish firmware (APOBLK ?) on my phone at first, and the name of compilation was "EUR *a date* blahblah", that's why i'm thinking that other european unbranded firmwares are just Euro Open firmwares with some changes (for example with aplications like Google Books when available in a country).

For me Euro

Open

=

base

for another firmwares.

But with branded firmwares is another thing, they are changed by cellphone operators' developers, they are adding some 'sh*tty' applications, lame bootanimations, making simlock and often bootloader locked when it's weak protected (like Samsung or older SE phones) Well, i don't know about these things, there are only my thoughts :D

OT: Dammit! 115k views of this thread, i hadn't thought that it will be so popular before i decided to organise this bounty etc. :D

And... i don't even know why i set this scary Shiro's face as avatar, lol.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] muellersmattes:
lol, I just thought "who's that guy" because you changed your well-known avatar...

By the way, I think the European firmwares are all Euro_Open. They all got the FOTA upgrades at the same time in the past, so I think they'll also get the JB update at the same time. Don't know why UK is so much behind with v10h.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] EdisDee:

[LG Optimus 4X HD] reas0n:
It will be something like it was with 2X, when beta firmware with new bootloader had been released, then someone did a ROM with it (as i remember) and then everyone could flash it, but... they have also unlocked bootloader by theirself before.. so.. i don't know.

Anyway, we can flash the euro open on most GSM phones, but.. whatha bout Canadian P880G? O.o

[LG Optimus 4X HD] Dexter_nlb:
Optimus 3D got unlocked because LG was too stupid and released the developer keys as part of the opensource they placed on the servers. their mistake, so they also included the source for the bootloader as well. so wdpark could also hijack the bootloader, compile a new bootloader and sign it with developer keys they forgot to remove.

A sourcecode for our bootloader is different since we got tegra3, and the fact we cannot hijack APX mode without the key, makes the trick wdpark found on optimus 3d not possible, since platforms and technique to do it is different.

so even if they did release any signed RSA keys, we would still need the SBK to write our changed bootloader, as no one made a kdz unpacker or repacker for that matter.

so looks good, but worthless information on our mobile.

do note NO ONE cracked the RSA key on tegra3, but they found company failures making the SBK visible which it should not have been. that is not a hack, that is simply bad developers, since you can search and find the key in memory.

when you open a safe with the key, it does not mean you cracked the safe and got around its locking mechanism, but simply used the right key. if you blew up the safe and the door open, it means you hacked it and got around the safety around the safe ;)

note,

we already got told that the APX protocol can be gotten around, by writing a new binary communicating with the device in apx mode, skipping the need for a SBK at all. wether LG left that door opened depends, since HTC didnt even include APX at all. so it could be possible if those guys had our device. but they don't, kholk do.

[LG Optimus 4X HD] kholk:
Tried this too, the APX bootloader expects encrypted communication :|

Btw, HTC didn't remove the APX mode. APX resides in the T3 BootROM and _can't_ be removed at all. They just made difficult to access it.

@Everyone else

I told you I could succeed - or not - prior even opening the bounty on my website. You really can't blame me for this.

I've tried my last idea on there exactly 5 minutes ago and, at least for me (but since I'm really sure of what I did, I'd say for anyone), there's absolutely no way for unlocking the bootloader here by hacking anything. It's secure and they've (LG) set the right things.

The only way to unlock it is to get a (key/bl) leak from LG.

I'm sorry.

Note that - from what I know - the bootloader will be unlocked with the JB release (also tried to get it). In that case, as you know, I'm a kernel developer and I've already built a really-really-really decent kernel for my main device, the HTC One X. Being a T3 device, most of the modifications made on there can be ported on the O4X without spending lots of time like I did when I've developed those things for the first time.

Now, tell me what to do, I can try to start to port CyanogenMod, wait (and try to leak it from somewhere) for the new BL and port my kernel on the O4x or ship the device to another guy.

Re: [DEV FOUND!] Bootloader unlock bounty

Cant blame kholk! He said it can be dont or then not. Maybe kholk could have give more information on his doings, but its not the main thing about his doings. His job was to TRY hacking the device, and sadlly it didnt work out. We just have to deal with it, i think he did his job anyway! Thanks kholk for trying! :)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Dexter_nlb:
im all in for you doing a full build for O4X, my "build" is as you know nothing but a pure port, where i binary hacked, copied binaries of other builds and something got something ok (not perfect at all) but ok .

much better than any circary showing off on youtube not wanting to share with community before a possible unlocked device gets served.

anyways this section miss a real custom build, and i can see that drivers can be found all over. p970+oneX+nexus7 alot with our hardware combined except the xxm62xx modem, which seem different primarily because of the rsa key it gets injected during init.

but that will for sure be appreciated, i see already quite a few being happy with the small achievement i done, you can still deliver something and improve on this if/when a unlocked bl appear from LG or someone gets a unofficial beta.

that's my 2 cents :)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] stigb1974:
I say you should keep it! And do what ever you like with it, not what any other tells you to.

Why? Because I think you will enjoy experimenting and developing on the phone a lot more that way, and thus the switch from OneX to 4X as main phone will happen automatically. :laugh:

Thanks for the effort so far!
[LG Optimus 4X HD] kholk:
@Dexter_nlb

It's not about finding the drivers.. and the modem is an Intel (X-Gold) XMM6260, I've already studied something :P :P

Lots of things are the same on both the HTC One X and the LG Optimus 4X: Tegra 3 is a SoC and it does contain "lots of chips" -- or I should say "lots of sections". By the way, from the ROM side, that's not really-really-really important... about this, it's all about the kernel side ;)

@Säx

Thank you...!

@stigb1974

Thank you too!
[LG Optimus 4X HD] reas0n:
Well, the most important thing is bootloader, we already have the 2nd init port (thanks Dexter!) so it's better to start seeking the firmware w/ new bootloader if not, to prepare everything and when 4X gets unlocked, then everythin' would be ready.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Norax:
Re: [DEV FOUND!] Bootloader unlock bounty

Don't you worry. I think we all thank you your effort :). We were worried about your work because of the null feedback. But at this momment there is nothing to blame about. We now know that the only way of getting the bl unlocked is waiting.

Help us anyway to develop! The reason I bought thisone and no othe device was not only the better screen but because it's much more fun!!

Where everything is done you just test and accept. Here we have but a huge green field to play ^^

I ve been following this thread since the beggining and I dont even own this device. All I can say is good thing that kholk finally sent to you guys and good thing that LG is unlocking the bootloader. The LG O4X has a very decent hardware and you guys can get the drivers from other similar devices. I hope that this will make LG more popular here in XDA :p and also it seems that LG finally learned how to do things right.

Thanks, kholk, for telling us about how things are now. I've always hoped that he could do it, but as he said before, he didn't promise anything. So I'd like to see you helping out with custom rom development and after bootloader unlock with great kernels. So keep the device for that, it'll help us after the unlock.
