Break out the bubbly — HTC CEO Peter Chou just announced via Facebook that they have heard everyone and will no longer be locking the bootloaders of their devices.  Were assuming and hoping this will start with the EVO 3D and the HTC Sensation, and users buying these new HTC phones will no longer depend on luck and skilled hackers to get them more open.Said CEO Peter Chou, via Facebook:”There has been overwhelmingly [sic] customer feedback that people want access to open bootloaders on HTC phones. I want you to know that weve listened. Today, Im confirming we will no longer be locking the bootloaders on our devices. Thanks for your passion, support and patience.”No word on exactly what this will mean for current models that have shipped with bootloader restrictions, or exactly how the new bootloaders will be “unlocked.”  Were reaching out to HTC, and as soon as they give us a statement, well let you know.
