EVO 3D shipping with locked down bootloader, but HTC may reconsider policy

We now have some excellent news and a few bad news. Let’s do the bad news first: very similar to the feeling, Thunderbolt, and Incredible S, Android Police has confirmed that the approaching HTC EVO 3D may also be sporting a locked down bootloader of comparable fashion, meaning custom ROM modders can have a difficult time glamming up said phone. Not that any one has to be surprised by this finding though, given the sorrowful trend. That said, there’s still hope: earlier today, HTC announced on Facebook that it’s “reviewing the problem and our policy around bootloaders” — seems like someone’s pulled a page out of Sony Ericsson’s good book. If all goes well, we’ll just need to be patient whether HTC will beat Motorola to creating their fans smile again .
