HTC plans to unlock HTC Sensation bootloader in August

HTC has just posted an update on the unlocked bootloader issue which has been one  hot topic as of late.  HTC’s development team is hard at work and they have plans to roll out an update to the HTC Sensation in August which will unlock the phones bootloader.  The HTC Sensation 4G (T-Mobile USA) and the HTC EVO 3D (Sprint) are next in line, but HTC has not given any specific time frame for the two updates.  While unlocking the bootloader on a phone may sound like an easy task for a manufacturer, HTC must create new software builds for each device and do extensive testing to make sure nothing breaks along the way.

We’re thrilled to announce today that software updates to support bootloader unlocking will begin rolling out in August for the global HTC Sensation, followed by the HTC Sensation 4G on T-Mobile USA and the HTC EVO 3D on Sprint. We’re in the testing phase for the unlocking capability now, and we expect it to be fully operational by early September for devices that have received the software updates. We’ll continue rolling out the unlocking capability over time to other devices as part of maintenance releases and new shipments.

While an August release may seem like it’s light years away, we really may only have about 3 weeks before the update is pushed out.  We’re extremely excited about the update and hope the development community will take full advantage of it once it is released.
