I would like to get everone to email them and maybe we can get them to act on this a bit quicker.
This is the response I got;
Good question, Mike. We definately understand the concern regarding the phones with bootloaders that are currently locked.
Unfortunately, prior to the decision to refrain from locking bootloaders, the devices had already been shipped to their appropriate vendors, and it was too late to change the software on the phones.
As much as I would love to provide you with a solid answer regarding when the encryption/lock will be removed from our bootloaders, headquarters has not made any official announcements regarding this. Though, once this decision is made, we'll definately also announce this through our website, as well as Facebook & Twitter, as well. Stay tuned; we'll definately let you know, as soon as the information becomes available.
Thank you for taking the time to contact us, Mike.

Dear Roque Perez,
I understand the importance of having your device perform to the fullest of its ability. The applications you describe were removed from the production model of the Sprint EVO 3D at Sprint's request so that it would function as intended. I do paologize for any inconvenience.

HTC is just holding us off with generic answers. I believe they are going to back out of this and not unlock the EVO 3D.

Hey guys, just a quick question,
deedscreen here, just wondering if anyone is interested in a new XDA Signature image, if you look below at my Signature, this is the quality of which I can create images, sometimes better than this.
If anyone is interested in an image like this, or a custom image of your choice, please let me know by commenting below. I will create a Signature Picture image for anyone who wants it.
Let me know what you think below.
Even if you are not a Photon Owner or Sprint Customer, you may feel free to request one, please just let me know how you'd like it.
I'll take one
hmm I will when I get some money could be awhile though

I don't think Junior Members can create a signature, ask XDA for the minium requirements, but I will make you one so that you have one when you can post it. When you contact XDA, just say your message needs immediate attention in the drop down menu.

Verizon pulled the rezound from HTCdev in the beginning like they are doing here, but we bugged them with emails, petitions and any other public ways to let them know we wanted it available to be unlocked and they finally cracked so let them know how you feel and tell them often and hopefully we will get the support back

OK got my first e-mail out, lets everyone get crackin on this!
We really should come up with some standardized format. I'm going to modify the HTC One X petition to fit our needs, as follows:
I am a proud owner of the HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE. It is a beautiful device with powerful potential. All I ask is that Verizon allows HTC to issue unlocks to owners of the Droid Incredible 4G LTE that choose to unlock it.
This phone has the potential to be an excellent platform for development. I consider the ability to modify the software running on the phone to be an essential feature. The current inability of the Droid Incredible 4G LTE to accept custom firmware is already dissuading some from purchasing this phone, and even causing others to consider returning devices that they have recently bought.
Once purchased, the Droid Incredible 4G LTE is our property alone to modify if we choose. HTC CEO and President Peter Chou promised that all HTC Android devices launched after September 2011 can have their bootloaders unlocked if the owner chooses to do so. And here I am, asking for that promise to be fulfilled.
Unlocking the Droid Incredible 4G LTE helps the development community do what they want with their devices. By unlocking the Droid Incredible 4G LTE, HTC and Verizon are supporting open hardware and software, the way it was meant to be. Please respect our freedom to do what we want with our devices.
Please allow the bootloader unlock.

This morning while I was simply just surfing YouTube I got a prompt asking me to start downloading a firmware update. I accepted and let it download but have no idea what it is. It's a 228 mb file. When it finished downloading nothing happened. Went to the AT&T Software Update menu and it says "Continue Update" but when I hit it nothing happens. Anyone have a clue? Could it be the 1.29 update?

This guy is about to get my second ever ignore on XDA.
Likely all he did was Force Stop/Clear Data on the Google Services Framework and push check for update a couple of times or some other equally easy/well known method of force checking an update.
Or (most likely) he's a pathetic piece of crap that's begging for money on xda for something he's made up.

Well you guys have echoed the sentiments pretty well here.
OP, we don't hold information ransom for monetary remuneration. We do this because we love development and helping others.
Normally I would say something humorous and sarcastic and close with a zing, but today I am going to kindly ask that you re-read the rules and realize that this is a live and close community, and as you can see from the replies here the community does not take kindly to efforts to extort money for information, files, beta access, or anything like that.
We are here for further mobile development and maybe have a bit of fun while doing it
Thanks for understanding.
So it looks like I somehow have the ability to give out 50gb of free storage from box.com. Not sure why its letting me or how many people it will let me give it to but if you want it just leave an email and ill start sending em out in order until it wont let me anymore. Just didnt want it to go to waste. 50gb is a ton of storage and you can also grab the box.com app from the play store. Peace out my ninjas
UPDATE: I have not forgotten about everyone. Something is wrong with the page where you input the email addresses of the people you are sharing the promo with. Apparently the 'box' people are aware of the problem but have yet to fix it. In the meantime there is a work around. Sign up for the standard free account and after you have done that send me a pm with your email so I can foward it to box.com support people and they will upgrade your account to 50gb and it happens rather quickly, within a few minutes. See the link below and read the comments so you can see this is the way it is being done right now and it appears to have worked fine for everyone so far. I've noticed a few people worried about being spammed since I am new. YOU ARE NOT GOING TO GET SPAMMED. Just trying to hook a few people up that's all.

Nobody is gonna get spammed. Something is wrong with the promo page where u input the email addresses to of the people ur giving the promo to. This is confirmed here https://support.box.com/entries/234...nds-and-Co-Workers-Today-page-is-not-working- and it is still not working. You need to sign up for a regular box account and once u have done that pm me your email address that you associated with you box account and they will upgrade the account to 50gb manually.
