Did you already update or did it come with 4.1.2?

[tmyinc]

Put me down for $10.00 for the time being. If I can add more later I will update satman. I haven't done much for the community lately due to personal reason so I need to start giving back. And thank you to all that have donated already!

It's an interesting question. Verizon seems pretty hard up on not wanting unlocked phones on their network. If they won't sell them, they certainly can tell us they won't activate one. I don't support dev phones myself. I prefer phones that are either unlockable or have been unlocked by the development community. To me, buying dev phones is playing right into their hands.

I agree with this person about Google/Motorola. Google owns Motorola and for them to continue to inhibit access to an open source operating systems is enough for me to switch brands in the future. I would also suggest that every phone has an exploit, they will never be able to lock it down entirely, especially with a sideload adb commands from Linux Shell. Anyway, I am at $20 and going to raise it soon, Droid Razr HD 4.1.2 . Perhaps Dan can update us on his progress and let me know where to donate. I am also curious which Android Phone brands are easily exploitable, please advise. Cheers

Switching brands will hardly help. You need to switch carriers. VZW is preventing Samsung as well as HTC from allowing unlockable bootloaders as well.

It's all about the money. With an unlocked phone you can work around paying for Wi-Fi tethering. Problem is no one has a network as good on coverage as Verizon. If course I could be wrong about this. But I have a friend on Sprint and he always gets dropped. Even in large metropolitan areas.

Thanks for the replies . You're right, Verizon makes big $$ royalties by OEM'ing these bloatware apps and has to promise the apps will run on all their phones to maximize profits . ATT isn't much better , what an annoying situation . Agreed , networks are basically a monopoly , so only have a few options . I am so mad to lose root , the upgrade went at night and for some reason OTA lost su backup. I feel violated
