Revolutionary? Why the name? Well, this tool is revolutionary in a couple of ways. It’s the first major collaboration between two development groups that we know of — and in honesty, we’ve stood on the shoulders of other giants, too, in building this! It’s revolutionary in some of the mechanisms by which we gain S-OFF; we have worked quite a while to build this, and we think that we’ve come up with a robust solution. And, we’d like to think of it not just as a revolutionary tool, but as a revolutionary itself! Over the past few months, our community has successfully convinced HTC and other vendors of the need to provide unlocked bootloaders for their phones. As we build this tool out to work with the unlocked updates, we’re excited about the next wave of innovation that this tool can help spark.
The tool is still in what is being called Developer preview status. Which means that if you are absolutely or mildly clueless on what you are doing, don’t do it. As with anything out there that unlocks your phone, you assume all risks and responsibility.They process and end result are not 100% yet, so expect a few minor bugs here and there. If you are ready to get all the relevant information, head on over to Revolutionary.io to get started.
I can’t wait to see what the developing community can do to these devices now. It should prove to be a very interesting 6 months to a year.
