If LG provides a way of unlocking the bootloader will the bounty be given to them? :p
[AT&T LG G3] force70:
It never should have been locked to begin with, if they provide an unlock its like fixing something you broke in the first place.

LG will get "a" bounty in a sense of more people buying their phone since it's unlocked.

This is why T-Mobile is the king of carriers IMO.

Until you realize the service and customer service is better on AT&T. I've tried T-Mobile several times over the past years and always stick with AT&T.

[AT&T LG G3] TheKnux:
I was on AT&T for awhile back in the day and ended up paying over $300 a month for 2 lines. I was done with that. $50 a month for a gig of data, unlimited minutes and messages is just fine for me. That and they don't lock their bootloaders down and they let you pay payments on all of the newest phones. $24/month for 24 months isn't bad and an upgrade every 6 months.

I bought an AT&T G3 and paid $10 through imei-unlocker and unlocked it. I go back to the T-Mobile dev forums from time to time and sulk in how much development is already out for it. I had a T-Mobile S5 and G3 but I got tired of Craiglsisters lying to me or not providing the right IMEI and having them blacklisted. So I got on eBay, got this G3, and I'm anxiously awaiting the BL unlock.

I just wish it was like my Z1 where they found out how to root it using the stock kernel or the S4 forums and had roms that you could flash with locked BL's. Oh how AT&T and Big Red are BS.
[AT&T LG G3] 903tex:
If T-Mobile ever get there coverage to where it can play with the big boys then don't be surprised when they start asking for their phones to be locked as well.

And in my area I've never ran into anything bad on craigslist. But then again I have the people meet me in the att store to verify everything. If they can't meet you in the store they trying to rip you off.....
[AT&T LG G3] vibsOveebs:

Lets get back in topic here. This isn't a who is the best carrier OP please go do that somewhere else.

I hope this unlock comes soon, however I am more than happy to wait for the devs to do it correctly because I know how much work it is to do.

To clarify I intended the comments for the members who were arguing about which carrier is the best not the OP. I do not like to argue if read about debates unrelated to the OP. I'm not trying to start any arguments so let's please get back on topic.
[AT&T LG G3] THEbigSWEEN:
You guys are still waiting to UNLOCK your bootloader? You didn't see the KEY in the bottom of the box?! *buh dun, tss* :silly: (did that lighten the mood?) :D

That key only came in the T-mobile box. [emoji12]
[AT&T LG G3] Will32:
The 3rd paragraph of the disclaimer found in the OP answers this.
[AT&T LG G3] Ker~Man:
Hence the smiley emoji at the end of the question, I'm quite confident that they were just joking. Not really hard to notice that, IMO... :rolleyes:
[AT&T LG G3] Will32:
Yes, I saw the smiley, no need to point that out, no need to roll your eyes either. I wasn't trying to be rude or anything. Just tried to give a valid answer to what could have been a valid question. [emoji106]
[AT&T LG G3] Coycaine:
The tension is thickening in here lately! I think we're all ready for this phone to reach its full potential, and are getting a little case of flash fever!
[AT&T LG G3] samg77:
No way. Says in the OP, if LG unlocks bounty is invalidated.
[AT&T LG G3] dmobbjr:
If LG unlocks the phone I will gladly give them my pledge. Assuming they collect it.
[AT&T LG G3] Ker~Man:
Relax, Will. I wasn't talking down to you. Didn't mean anything by it. An emoji is just a goofy little smiley face - not a real emotion, for me, at least. I wasn't literally rolling my eyes at you. No offense intended and I apologise if you took it such a way.

EDIT: And regarding the thickening tension, we just need to remind ourselves that we are human beings/adults, and our beloved device is just that - a device that does almost nothing without the power of us people. No need to bunch up our panties, yet simply realize this is, in the biggest sense, more about fun than anything else! :highfive:
[AT&T LG G3] Will32:
Ahh, the high road, well played my friend. Your post seemed condescending, if that wasn't intended, my apologies. Emoticons are used to express emotions where we can't speak face to face and hear a tone of voice.

So, now that we've rooted all the G3's (and pretty much every LG phone now) with Stump, it's time to crack down on the bootloader.

I hope you guys can hold on just a bit longer - work's ramping up here for me, so I'm not sure how much free time I'll have this weekend (gotta do some stuff at the datacenter over the weekend, kind of a bummer). But, as usual, I'm confident in an unlock.

Hold tight, and keep watching our twitter accounts - tylerfixer (me) , utoprime (autoprime), teamandirc (jcase) . Who knows, we might have something sooner than later.

loki has been patched for and thus not an option. ;)

If you go back quite a ways in the thread I believe it was [MENTION=1157052]thecubed[/MENTION] who said that the solution they are working on will provide a full unlock.

They should combine this thread and the 'why don't we have any updates for our ATT G3's???' thread... :D

Can't you picture the ATT dev on their monitor hitting F5 on this thread just waiting to release an update that patches whatever unlock exploit the masterminds are working on so they can screw it up for the rest of us?? :p Reminds me of the old iOS dev blog where every iOS update would patch the latest redra1n or whatever jailbreak they were using at the time and the cat and mouse game would continue. I'd rather wait for an ATT update that fixes current issues then release a possible unlock.
[AT&T LG G3] Alienuser:
Granted, I'm a head in need of a brain. What is the best root procedure. Cleanest with the best chance of going back to stock without problems? I'm ready to do it. I can't wait any longer.

If we have unlock devs may be able to iron out some of the bugs for us so we wouldn't have to wait for ATT. Custom kernels could vastly improve the overall experience also. I'd rather have unlock.

Ive never helped with an unlock before, I have a att g3 and work at verizon so I have access to verizon g3's as well. Ive made custom roms for the note 3, and also have some experience with some other stuff. I wouldnt mind helping assist with this if someone wants to pm me.
[AT&T LG G3] Pure+:
Alright guys. In an effort to ease the tension here let me try to clear things up.

This thread serves multiple purposes.

-for people to pledge towards the bounty

-for the devs working on unlocks to provide updates IF AND ONLY IF THEY WANT TO

-a FRIENDLY place to hangout out and voice what's on your mind while we wait for an unlock

Note about that 3rd item: if "what's on your mind" is going to start a riot, anger people, be a smart ass, or anything to even bring the slightest agetations to a boil then don't post it.

I think that it's fine for us to go off topic as long as things stay friendly. If we can't stay friendly towards eachother then the mods will continuosly be asked to clean the thread and we'll never get anywhere.

I don't think asking you all to stay friendly is to much to ask. Let's make it happen.

Like any forum there are those who are brash and over demanding, sometimes just flat rude. No different than the entitled drivers on the highway. But many like myself are just quietly pledging and patiently waiting for those who have the tools to find the time.

Far far more people on XDA appreciate the knowledge developers/hackers etc share and know ourselves that real life and time are precious.

Just an update: we're still working on it. I've disassembled 50% of the bootloader in IDA so far, we've found the actual security interface command that's being called, and we have a general idea what application is responsible for checking the unlock status. Next step: disassemble that application and figure out where it gets it's data from.

Don't worry, we're not dead, or defeated, just busy with life and work :/

[AT&T LG G3] thecubed:
Okay guys, simmer down over here...

To put some things out on the table:

- We do *NOT* have a working unlock yet, as soon as I do, believe me I'll be posting pictures and teaser videos of it the second it's finished. If anyone has a hard time believing that, check my history with Stump or PurpleDrake or IORoot, or FreeGee, or RevoToolkit, or Monster Root Pack, or really anything else I've worked on. Honesty and transparency are my #1 priorities.

- Regarding the bounty: personally, I am not too concerned with how much the bounty stands at. As we put on all our posts, we don't do this for the money, we do it for the lulz. Any donations we receive whether it be $0.01 or $10.00 is just a bonus to us and it shows how much you appreciate our hard work. If I was to receive $0 in donations after releasing an unlock when it's found, I wouldn't stop releasing unlocks or working on phones, it isn't what motivates me. I would never 'game' the bounty by sitting on an unlock until the bounty was "sufficiently high" either.

I do enjoy posting on XDA to give you guys updates and let you all who aren't on IRC know that I'm indeed still around and haven't been eaten by a pterodactyl (spelled that right the first time!) or given up on the project. I try to limit how much I post on XDA in these threads unless I have something to release, as it seems to get people riled up.

I'll be sure to let you guys know when and if I have an update, as usual.

Is it just me or does it seem like people are posting to see how many times a moderator has to come in and clean the thread and post to keep on topic. I believe this is a thread to tally bounty for unlock not how much we can annoy moderators and members.

My 2 cents.
[AT&T LG G3] mrhaley30705:
I know it's early, maybe too early for questions, but here goes. When we get the unlock (not if, but when), will we be able to relock? I only ask because of potential warranty stuff that may arise after unlocking.
[AT&T LG G3] TheKnux:
Why would anyone want to spend the time to relock a bootloader even though it was unlocked in the first place? I mean I get the whole warranty thing, but I'm pissed that even though I'm through T-Mobile, I'm stuck with an At&t phone that's locked. :(

What the heck's a "peter-o-dact-eel"?! Dunno what part of the world you're from, but we don't have themz kinda crazy fish in 'Merica!! :cowboy::p

That gives me an idea (@Pure+ feel free to weigh in here too) Since everyone plays nice for a while then things just spiral out of control for a few pages, if you HAVE to post something off topic in this thread then add $1 (or more) to your pledge! I know this sounds good in theory but would hard to regulate and getting people to agree to actually pay, but it would be a win-win to keep the thread free of clutter and support these amazing devs even more! Just a thought.

And on that note.... I got $20 on it!! (I know it doesn't matter except for the totals on the first post, but on Verizon G3)
