HTC has released a tool to unlock the bootloader in some of its Android devices, the company announced today. According to a posting on HTCDev, HTC will allow the bootloader to be unlocked on every phone it releases going forward, and will also be working backwards to make unlocking tools for phones released prior to September 2011.

Note though:


Of course, "allowing" is different than "supporting." HTC warns customers that unlocking their devices may mean they're no longer covered under warranty. The company also notes that unlocking the devices may cause unintended side effects, including overheating.
