Just thought I'd throw it out there for anyone on VZW with the S3, The bootloader has now been cracked! Let the nutball modding begin!

I did the harder method which involved a lot of crossing fingers but its nice to see the phone fully unlocked now. I checked out that app and it is indeed legit! If you don't feel comfortable using ADB this is the best solution!

Yea you should be able to just take it in (or call) and say that you're going abroad and they should unlock the roaming. But your bootloader will still be locked.

have any of you guys gotten the iphone 5 yet? i've been trying to find it at at&t store, apple store, radio shack, etc. and they're all out of stock for the past two weeks now.

at this point should i pre-order and wait it out for the next few weeks? or keep hoping they'll get some in stock?
