I see. So it was just many in the community that hated this? That's not so bad. I think its fine too, so long as its electricity and service that they pay for and not oclHashcat.

bonus points for people pointing out a single proper english sentence by the thread authors.

lol. I don't know how I'd feel after months of exposure, for now I just think its just amusing. But yes, very poor language. However many simply be from non English countries. Then, naturally get frustrated and start flaming when they cant get help or can't formulate a sentence capable of attaining help. Wrong yea, but devolving into hate, ridicule and such as I saw from my searches of SL3 is just as bad. If I didn't want to help I'd just ignore the threads, maby a single link reply.

After a lot of deliberation it was just decided that it would be removed. This solved all the problems by removing the people causing them, and further obsoleting the software due to requirements from drivers etc.

Was It really so terrible? Is it really that people were just sick of SL3 support so it was removed because it was the easiest option?

Ah! Makes more sense now. Perhaps this is why SL3 removal seemed overly abrupt.

So with a bit of elbow grease hashcat may still work? What are the others? I had a look but there's so much rubbish about buying time on peoples SL3 server it seems impossible to have a proper hit on Google.
If its posted here people from Google may at least be able to find a reference on their quest to unlock their phones. Since I know many of my hashcat queries have similarly been solved by coming to these forums from Google.
