Guys we did it!!!!!!!
VZW got our petition and my letter, as a result they allowed HTCdev.com to work to unlock our phones!
go to www.htcdev.com and follow the instructions.
good job to all who signed the petition, what an awesome victory!
here is the letter I sent:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20764858&postcount=107
Thank you to everyone who participated
Please read sign, and share the following petition.
http://www.groubal.com/verizon-wireless-allow-unlocking-of-htc-boot-loaders-on-your-network/
With enough signatures, this can work. This is the same method that was used with HTC and resulted in the acknowledgement by the CEO, and the promise of unlocked boot loaders for all phones from now on.
Verizon is trying to protect us from ourselves, they claim that allowing the phones to be unlocked would "hurt" us, as we would not be able to get "excellent customer service" should we ever need troubleshooting advice from them.
We all know that we understand the risk associated custom software and roms, as well as unlocking and changing critical software. We can choose to participate, or choose to leave our phones as Verizon shipped them.
We want the ability to CHOOSE what we do with our phones, not to have VZW protect us from ourselves. Giving us the option to unlock is not the same as shipping the phones in an unlocked state... We simply want the option.
Basically what Verizon is saying is that since it is so easy to root and un-root with virtually no trace they don't want this to be easy because they have replaced thousands of phones already that were "bricked" by the users.
I wouldn't mind a minor lockdown making it somewhat difficult to modify the phone, but this type of lockdown is a little out of hand.

the current lock down in place can stay in place. We just want them to allow HTC to unlock our phones should we choose to use their unlock tool, created and supported by HTC, for HTC phones.
nothing has to change except that.

I'd rather petition HTC on providing unlock keys. Verizon already knows how to ignore us.

Ah, I didn't realize there was an HTC tool to do that. I am new to HTC phones, my previous two phones were Samsungs (Fascinate and Charge) and they were both ridiculously easy to unlock.
Will you be posting this on other websites? Rootz perhaps? Is there a rezound specific website to post it on? Come on people, only 7 of us want our phones unlocked? Sign, sign, sign.

Well its been a year and our bootloaders are still locked. In 2011 moto promised to embrace the dev community and unlock all the bootloaders on their phones. HTC started offering unlocks but moto hasn't said a word. I personally think it has something to do with Google's purchased of Motorola mobility but I'm not sure. They haven't issued any type of statement regarding this issue. Lets take action! We need EVERY one in the photon forums to take 3 mins and fill this out. This petition is flying around teh interwebz extremely fast. Its definitely going around XDA as all moto owners are joining forces, let's get in on it! I hope moto responds I really like them as a company now...

It is our intention to offer an unlockable/relockable bootloader, currently found on MOTOROLA XOOM, in future software releases starting in late 2011 where operator and channel partners will allow it.

The Google deal still is being held up and there is a chance that it may still get kiboshed. So I don't think it's that..

With the bounty of almost $4,000 (last time I checked) you would think that someone/recognized dev or team, would step up to this bounty of unlocking the bootloader on the Verizon variant of the S4. Even since the ME7 update, (mid July?), I am surprised! I thought I would put in my 2 cents of the topic. There is a website called change.org, which is an online petition website. I'm sure some of you have heard it.
Anyways, I saw a petition of the LG 4X. A guy made up a petition to unlock the boot loader. Soon enough, the amount of required signatures was reached, and LG came out with an update and BAM. Boot loader unlocked. Here is the link: http://www.change.org/petitions/lg-electronics-seoul-we-would-like-to-get-the-opportunity-to-unlock-bootloader-in-lg-phones
I'm going to create an petition for the Verizon S4, and hopefully, this works. Just a little bit of hope for you guys, I want it just as bad as everyone else.
You need to create an account on change.org, also you can use your facebook details. Doesn't matter. but make an account and sign!
Here is the petition, let me know what you think guys! :fingers-crossed: If I need to edit anything, let me know.
http://www.change.org/petitions/samsung-usa-and-verizon-wireless-unlock-the-bootloader-of-the-verizon-s4-sch-i545
EDIT: We've reached over 50 signatures! Keep em' coming guys. Thank you.
Verizon won't change their stance. That's why they attempt to please us by offering developer edition devices. That LG device you referenced to was a GSM unlocked device. It wasn't tied to any carrier specifically and therefore LG could directly appease those demanding change. Verizon offers the explanation in this article in regards to why it's locked and it's probably the same response you'll get. just my 2cents
still doesn't hurt to try. I'm in.
i think everyone who likes to mod their phones should try this petition.
Exactly what black_label said. It doesn't hurt to try. I see where you're coming from, but let's just see what happens. This petition is booming in the last hour.

I have started a petition on change.org about the so talked 3D drivers on HTC EVO 3D. Let's hope this will do something.
https://www.change.org/petitions/ht...-s-drivers-sourcecode-related-to-3d-functions
I hope it is written well and all of it makes sense. If anybody wants to me to add/change something feel free to add suggestions.
Feel free also to discuss anything else around the whole 3D drivers issue here.
Last but not least I'd like to ask you to spread the word about the petition and if it's possible I'd like to ask XDA to give some help on it, it would be pretty intresting to see what comes out of such thing.
Thank you everybody!
UPDATE: 100 supporters reached! Thanx everybody!
Thank you for taking the time to do this. Signed, and I added a reason as well (to see if I ever buy HTC again).
To be absolutely honest, I believe that it isn't such a big deal releasing those drivers as much as HTC acts like it is, too much trouble for something really simple that affects nothing. Why, oh, why HTC?
Thank you
You're welcome, actualy there's no reason to thank me, if that petition does anything we are all winners here, HTC too.

If it does not comply with Android's GPL system the patent is in violation of it, so we can claim breach.
You can't do anything you want with your hardware since you are forced to have available it's sources, you can patent your product (law will protect you) but not releasing the source for your patent inside the Android ecosystem is a breach of Android's policy on OEMs and it's GPL.
Not really. Even Google is moving a lot of their stuff closed source. There's hardly anything interesting in AOSP anymore. Gmail and Google Now aren't open source. You can mix open and closed source very easily. Sadly.

You can make thousands of points here but whatever that point will be it still it won't be a reason to not show HTC that it's one of their last chances to show that they care about their costumers and the ecosystem themselfs entered willingly before everybody else will not [care] for them, in the end of the day this is what 50% of the petition is about.
You can sign the petition only to show that you agree, the outcome of it (and any other petition) is another part, you don't enter something only to get what you want because you just said so, (this is the way a 5 year old stubborn child thinks) but you enter because you believe it is correct and you want others to know, whatever their move will be.

Thank you everybody, let's hope that HTC will understand the importancy of the matter as much as we do and take responsibility.
I don't think the Problem is HTC. HTC get the driver for the Snapdragon MSM8660 from Qualcomm. And Qualcomm didn't develop the new driver. So HTC can't support us with an new android version ...
