The company finally committed to opening the devices properly. I am honestly drained by this process but relieved to see the work result in an actual change for our community. Keep testing your hardware to ensure they hold up their end of the bargain.

On another note, their stand on the battery vs. thinness debate is ridiculous. Obviously we want more battery!!! Who cares if your phone is razor thin if it doesn't last long enough to enjoy?!

The emails I get from those of you who just want to use the hardware you paid for keep me going when this feels like shouting into a void. I am still digging through the technical documentation to prove exactly how these locks are restricting us. It is exhausting work but we are not backing down until they actually open these devices up.

My phone dies by 2pm every single day. Stop making them thinner and give us some actual power.
HTC used to be for the power users. what happened???
Sick of these locked devices. I paid 700 bucks for this thing I should be able to do what I want with it.
Total bait and switch. stop calling it unlocked when it clearly isnt.
The battery life on my M8 is a absolute joke. fix it or give us a real way to optimize the system software.
