On December 31, LG closes its mobile developer site and withdraws from mobile telephony. You only have a few days to unlock your phone.
Recently, LG announced that it is leaving the smartphone market. The company is shutting down its LG Mobile Developer website, which means this is your last chance to unlock your bootloader.
If you go to the corresponding LG Mobile Developer you will see this announcement:
LG has made the difficult decision to close its mobile business to focus on other businesses that will offer new experiences and value to consumers. We hereby inform you that the service of LG Mobile Developer is scheduled to end on December 31, 2021.
Upon termination of the service, all information provided on the site and version of the bootloader unlock key will not be available. The personal information collected for the provision of services will be destroyed. However, we store personal information for a specified period of time, if required by applicable laws and regulations.
This means that anyone with an LG smartphone who would like to unlock the bootloader to install a custom ROM or root their device must do so before December 31, 2021, when the site will close.
Of course, he will still be able to use his LG phone for a long time after December 31st, but if you ever plan to make your own device, unlock it before 31/12/2021.
