So I am on a Macbook Pro and have been following the above steps in the sticky for unlocking my bootloader in an attempt to take that big boy step and root this beeotch.
When I copy the platform-tools file over into the terminal and then go on with the ./fastboot oem unlock command I get a "waiting for device" prompt and get stuck. Also, after clicking on tools-->android in my sdk folder to get the platform tools folder to appear, 'fastboot' is already a folder inside of the platform-tools folder. I have tried copying and pasting the folder with both the original fastboot in that folder as well as removing that and replacing it with the separate one I downloaded from the same site shown in the mac tutorial sticky video...both still give me the "waiting for device" prompt.
Someone please help, on top of this being my first time unlocking and rooting I also recently made the switch from PC all of my life to this being my first mac, so I'm still adjusting to that as well. Thanks in advance for your help and patience.
