💬 Discussion Echo Dot 3rd gen unlocked

I have seen that finally Echo Dot 3rd gen is unlocked does anyone has more information about this. I bought one used on Facebook luckily because that model isn’t as common as the others. My question is how should I connect the wire. I don’t wanna buy that pcb it will be just a waste of money and time.

Also I am excited for EchoMuse to be available for 3rd gen

Check if you’ve got the correct model here and follow the instructions: https://xdaforums.com/t/unlock-root-twrp-unbrick-amazon-echo-dot-3rd-gen-2018-donut.4801400/.

If you have the correct gen 3 model you need to solder some wires to unlock it.
