>how can it be "locked" then?
The same way a computer running gnu can be locked with a password. Open Source does not place any limitations on how the software can restrict the user at runtime.
And it's trivial to unlock it (on most phones), you just go in to settings and press a button.
This is equivalent to having a bios password on your computer. its useful to protect thieves/police from overwriting your firmware with a rat or keylogger.

 №9323

>>9321
then why can you not simply bypass that lock by booting up something else and changing it?
>trivial on most phones
so if you brick something and have an unbootable system but a locked bootloader, you essentially have an expensive paperweight?
do android niggers really...
>bios password
there is no such thing on my computers, because there are no proprietary bioses
>useful to protect against thieves
maybe, but they can just take out your drive or look up how to use the backdoor that is in basically every single proprietary bios
the same goes for the police

if the bootloader is locked it won't boot the 'something else'
>so if you brick something and have an unbootable system but a locked bootloader, you essentially have an expensive paperweight?
its quite hard to brick an immutable system, with a/b updates
>there is no such thing on my computers, because there are no proprietary bioses
bios passwords have nothing to do with whether your bios is proprietary or not, its a security feature to prevent people with physical access from tampering with shit
>maybe, but they can just take out your drive
Well yes, but no thief, probably not even the police is going to go to the effort of cracking open your phone, desoldering the flash chip, and flashing a new bootloader. Newer phones might have security chips that would prevent this from happening in the first place.

>>9332
so its effectively bricked from the factory?
lmao
can you even flash it externally with an SPI flasher by taking out 8 screws and attaching a 2$ clip?
i don't think so.
>muh soycurity
even doe you can bypass those passwords in 99% of all BIOSes by unplugging the CMOS battery or entering the backdoor password
>newer phones have "security" to prevent this from happening
not so "free" anymore, huh?

This. If you have a real use case like taking care of a relative or having a meme job, you're fucked. I would say to buy an oldfag's Nokia 3310 and install a battery kill switch, but (((they))) dismantled GSM and CDMA. Too bad all FOSS phones are smartshit

you mean by shoving proprietary firmware up our asses, scamming us, and selling us soldered overpriced chinesium garbage for 4000$ per piece, which is even more overpriced than crapple?

you have no phosphorus, you have no vacuum, you have no modelines. you are a forcefully progressive piece of shit twisted by non-strobed, blurry, and fixed-res images into a mockery of visual perfection. all the "validation" you get is half hearted and comes from gaymer faggots who cry about VGA ports missing from "their" modern GPUs. behind your back CRTs mock you for your disgusting motion blur, latency, fixed resolution, ugly unrealistic colours, full backlight without good blacks, or burnin. VGA ports are utterly repulsed by you, and even if you manage to trick a gaymer fagot into buying you, you will be thrown away a year later whenever he manages to get his hands onto a real monitor you will never achieve a low latency. you will never achieve zero motion blur. you will never have a freely scalable resolution, or refresh rate. you will never interlace. you will go back to the liquid crystals you came from, which is unmistakably plastic chinkshit. this is what you chose, CRTs are out of production, there is no going back.
