bref, 17 May 2018How useful is this when you can't unlock bootloader?What do you mean?? There are several guides on XDA to unlock nokia 3 bootloader traditionally. There is also mtkclient, it allows u to unlock bootloader in any mtk based phone. It doesn't even wear your data.

AnonD-576767, 17 May 2018The golden time of rooting and custom os era is over now ... moreI don't see a reason to be cheerful. Custom OS meant extended life for certain devices, as they kept getting unofficial support and security updates way after the official support ended.
Why should I buy a phone every two years when my current one serves me just fine? That was the cutom roms main power.
With treble it should be easier though, provided there's a way to unlock bootloader and enough devs work on it.

AnonD-576767, 17 May 2018The golden time of rooting and custom os era is over now ... moreEspecially the phone that officially support it is not the hottest phone around now like htc, sony
On contrary, oppo, that used to be developer friendly has gone with the herd of not allowing it, and seeing how popular devices with locked bootloader are, this won't change anytime soon
There's also the downfall of cyanogen, and the supposedly spiritual successor, lineageOS, doesn't perform well enough

Geric.770, 17 May 2018Lol. So this phone is like Lenovo's? Well, that's bad.Well they said months ago that they would consider an option for interested people to unlock bootloaders but that hasn't happened so far. And I doubt it will happen anytime soon.
