- Samsung appears to be disabling bootloader unlocking in One UI 8 on more devices than before.
- Previously, only US models lacked the OEM Unlock toggle, but the restriction now seems to be spreading to global models as well.
- A contributor on XDA Developers discovered that Samsung is likely stripping out the necessary code to unlock bootloaders entirely.
Samsung might be quietly locking down its phones even more tightly with the One UI 8 update. A new report from an XDA Developers contributor reveals that Samsung appears to be removing the ability to unlock the bootloader on more devices, including international versions that previously supported it.
