A few years ago, many were the users who were dedicated to installing custom ROMs to be able to get the most out of your terminals thanks to the community that is dedicated to creating these types of versions. Unfortunately for some time now, some are the manufacturers that have begun to change their minds and are beginning to limit this possibility.
The last one to join the bandwagon, and also without prior notice, has been Nokia through the security patch for the month of August and that it has made available to its users for a few days. This security patch, in addition to solving the different security problems that have been detected during the last month, also blocks access to the bootloader.
Nokia has not made this announcement officially, but it has been the community of users that have been affected by this measure, a measure that so contradicts the words of the company itself, since a little over a year ago it stated that that I would never block it. Fortunately, this update it does not affect all those users who already had the bootloader unlocked, so if you find yourself in these lucky ones, you can update without problem.
Of course, if one of the reasons you had in mind was to be able to install custom ROMs on the terminals of this firm, you can now change your optionUnless you have the possibility of being able to get a model that has not yet been updated with the security patch of August, something that should not be very complicated considering that it has been available for only a few days.
Taking into account the number of users that take advantage of the bootloader of their devices to fully customize their terminal it is very small, it can be understood that the company has decided not to complicate life and close this door for everyone through an update.
