T-Mobile/Metro

  • Verdict "Safe for now" :trollface:

In general, T-Mobile generally lets you unlock your bootloader, even if your phone is still carrier locked, likely related to the fact T-Mobile has always supported Android (they were the first carrier in the world to sell an Android device), way back in 2011, T-Mobile said on Twitter that CyanogenMod (a very popular custom ROM, now known as LineageOS) was great, and they were excited to see what Cyanogen would do for T-Mobile's new phone. T-Mobile has also seemingly forced certain manufacturers to make their bootloaders unlockable, as phones like the LG G6 (normally not unlockable), is unlockable via the standard unlock procedure for T-Mobile models. Do note that this does not account for phones made by T-Mobile, these phones have a number of different OEMs, usually Wingtech for newer models, and HTC for older models, however they've been made by a varity of different OEMs, including TCL, Samsung, Sharp, Danger, LG and Huawei.
