It won't be until Motorola and anyone similar to them dies in a fire. I cannot tell you how much having made the mistake of purchasing a Motorola phone has made me absolutely loath those MBA-led jackasses. Get an Android they say. It's open source, they say. Oh, you didn't know about the locked bootloader? Oh, you expected software updates and bug fixes? LOL. Enjoy your abandoned phone and thanks for the purchase. Android has been far from anything Linux-like so far. The term "Android" does not equate with the types of control over my devices I expect from something that is Open Source. I did learn my lesson and my wife has a Nexus. This Android = Open Source lie is completely misleading bullshit, though. Nobody sells AOSP phones except Google's Nexus line.
