Secureboot on Lumia devices has been cracked, all Lumias have now been bootloader unlocked
The Lumia lineup has been cracked wide open.
The Windows Phone aficionados amongst you might remember Windows Phone Internals by XDA developer and Windows Phone god Heathcliff74, a tool that allowed users with specific Lumia devices to flash custom ROMs with the help of a Secureboot exploit. While the memory of the hacks it achieved may be lost in your memory – seeing as the last version of Windows Phone Internals was released 2 years ago – the tool has remained in active but covert development; and today, Windows Phone Internals 2.2 has launched with a truly momentous claim to fame.
You read the title correctly. Bootloader unlocking via secureboot bypass is now possible on all Lumia devices, including the X5X generation.
