Verizon explains locked bootloader stance in letter to FCC [telecom] open original image

by Dan Graziano - March 2, 2012



In a response to the FCC following a formal complaint, Verizon Wireless has outlined the company's policy on locked bootloaders. An irate Droid-Life reader became fed up with the carrier's consistent locking of bootloaders on its flagship devices and decided to file a complaint with the Federal Communications Commission. The reader claimed Verizon's policy was in violation of the "Block C license," an agreement the company made when it purchased its 700MHz LTE spectrum.
