Help unlock bootloader

signed posted on there facebook AND emailed them just to get the copy and pasted auto response that it was forwarded to the appropiate people blah blah blah

has anybody looked at the src they posted for the phone? might it be possible to find something there?
 
Hey I was wondering, would it help if we emailed Google? (I don't even know if that's possible) but if we can, maybe they can put a little pressure on LG?
Just a thought

probably if you possibly got google to do that. doubt they would tho. google asking them to do that might hurt lg and googles relationship and i dont think google really wants to take a chance with it, lg been around for ever i remember i had one of their phones in 1996. they'd probably tell google to suck it and develop their own OS lol
 
WTF!!! When I first signed it the thing only need like 500 signatures, now it is at 10000. We are never gonna unlock it lol. That is why i am switching to sprint for the nexus in janruary.
 
Hi all

So LG did not make this phone for us and we are not their customers, they made it for Metro PCS, and then Metro sold the phone to us, you bought the phone from Metro not LG. LG is not obligated to us at all.

LG probably locked the boot loader at Metro's request, and will probably only unlock it at their request.

LG made the Nexus 4 for Google, and that did not have a locked boot loader, because Google probably told them they did not want one.

Metro probably has to pay LG for any changes or updates to the firmware that were not bugs to begin with.

So maybe we need to put pressure on Metro somehow for this. We need to find a way that we will be the most irritating to them, and it will be a benefit and a relief for them to give us what we want. Maybe a petition is not enough, maybe we all need to start calling the Metro support number for it, and demand to speak to a supervisor every time. If they keep getting a lot of calls about this, eventually they will pay LG to make the new boot loader or un-locker.



Edit:

When you call Metro and they say "we did not make the phone LG did"

Tell them it says in big letters on the back of the phone METRO PCS, and I bought the Metro PCS phone from you not LG
