Hey there guys. These days Motorola announced their new web site, where you can "unlock" your bootloader. I've registered and tried to follow what they say, but I can't enter the fastboot mode.
When you enter in this link: https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a
You click "proceed anyway" at the bottom, register and gets to a page that says this:
DEVICE ID AND UNLOCK KEY
To unlock your device, you need to retrieve your device ID and obtain an unlock code.
I. RETRIEVING YOUR DEVICE ID
Put your device in fastboot mode (Power+Vol Down) and connect over USB
Open a command prompt or Terminal session
Go to the Directory where you installed the Android SDK tools, and type:
$ fastboot oem get_unlock_data
This fastboot command will return a character string. This is the Device ID which you will be using to generate your unique unlock key.
$ fastboot oem get_unlock_data
(bootloader) 0A40040192024205#4C4D3556313230
(bootloader) 30373731363031303332323239#BD00
(bootloader) 8A672BA4746C2CE02328A2AC0C39F95
(bootloader) 1A3E5#1F53280002000000000000000
(bootloader) 0000000
OKAY

To generate your unlock code, you’ll need to paste together the 5 lines of output into one contnuous string without "(bootloader)" or white spaces.. Using the example above, the line you’d send us would be:
0A40040192024205#4C4D35563132303037373136303130333 2323239#BD008A672BA4746C2CE02328A2AC0C39F951A3E5#1 F532800020000000000000000000000
Enter your continuous string into the "Request Your Unlock Key" section below.
Someone with an "extra" Defy that is on the stock GB, wants to try this? I can't enter on the stock recovery/fastboot mode to try this. But the hope still. I know that Moto says that only Xoom and Razr Dev Edition can be unlocked, but we should try.
Hope someone can retrieve and key and send to moto, to see what happens.
Rock on! o/
