Is there a way to escape this Kafkaesque hell? Otherwise I will send the phone back, obviously. Unlocking the bootloader, apparently requires first accepting google ToS and updating the phone. Unlock bootloader without accepting Google ToS The Productsīooting the phone gives me Google Crap.
Why working approach for unlocking was abandoned in favor of “online” codes?Īnd additional question - is Fairphone sharing “unlocked” IMEI numbers with any external party? Will they be used for any kind of “blacklist” or marking my phone as “dangerous”?Ĭouple examples of unlock support - I’d like to ensure FP4 will NOT look like this in the future: ZenTalkįairphone 3+. These phones were capable of being unlocked earlier and this was taken away from phone owners. It is not a hypothetical question - I suggest to read as example ASUS support forums where people beg to help them with unlocking older phones - which ASUS decided to be “unsupported” and the only answer phone owners get is “this model will no longer have any maintenance (including server)”.
This is my big concern, as inability of offline bootloader unlocking makes this phone heavily dependant on your service running - thus if any day you will go out of business or you just will stop supporting this phone - I will be locked and unable to change my phone OS anymore. Please explain me why did you chosen this way of unlocking FP4 instead of offline unlocking? I was considering fp4 as my next purchase, however I have doubt about unlocking bootloader.Īs I have read - currently for FP4 there is online service which every time generates new unlock code.
