There are some tools here in XDA to do that. Try to find in P20 pro thread.

you don't need to lock your BL if you want to receive OTA ! anyway if you lock it you will be not able to unlock it again! my BL is unlocked and OTA update work perfect ! last OTA for L29 is 128 firmware but not 128a !

I understand. I replay to your answer.
I said you to look here ==> https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20-pro/development/tool-tool-one-driversunlocktwrpfactory-t3779416
Or use FunkyHuawei tools.

Do you have a stock recovery or a TWRP? As I've read somewhere on the forum you have to be on the stock recovery to flash OTAs. But let someone confirm this cause I don't have the P20 PRO yet.

I don't have my bootloader code anymore how can I still relock it

Without the unlock code you cannot relock.

Is it simple enough to do? And did you relock the bootloader when it was complete?

Yes, it's pretty simple. I made it because I wanted to transform my P20 pro single sim to dual sim and it worked !
After procedure the new bootloader become re-locked. You can't use anymore the Huawei code to unlock boootloader and you can't root the phone or install twrp.
Until Funky find a system to unlock without code.

I had heard that using any of Funky's procedures relocks the bootloader and the Huawei bootloader unlock code no longer works. But like a lot of people, I purchased my unlock code from a 3rd party. So it would be interesting to see if it survived a Funky method.

I didn't know that we can buy unlock codes.
But surely your code do not work after procedure!
Because Funky firmware chanche your bootloader code. And so unlock codes doesn't work anymore.

Yes there are a few sites offering bootlocker unlock codes. https://ministryofsolutions.com/huaw...-new-firmwares does them for 30€, although they only accept so many paypal payments per day. https://global-unlocking-solutions-...es,_Choose_Model_Below/p5093122_19186756.aspx is €35 but has no limitations on paypal payments. I believe that both are totally legit, according to P20 onwers here.
Funky Huawei is a strange one. If you use one of their options to, say, change your region, model number etc, it will lock your phone again and make your current bootloader password useless. And the bad thing about this is, they don't offer an unlock service. Unless you pay for their unlimited use pass, which costs $132. Then they throw in a free bootloader unlock. I'm not sure if the relock and code breaking is a deliberate act by Funky Huawei but personally speaking, they should be giving a new working code to anyone whose unlock code they've trashed.

Are there currently any ways to unlock the Mate 10 (/Pro)'s bootloader?

After Huawei killed their bootloader unlock website, users have been left unable to unlock their bootloaders. Is there something like dc-unlocker for the Mate 10 (Pro)?

Yes dc-unlocker

As far as I know there's only one for the Lite, it didn't detect my phone

DC-Unlocker not supported the following devices:
WARNING:
Huawei P20 EML-xxx all versions not supported
Huawei P20 Pro CLT-xxx all versions not supported
Huawei Mate 10 ALP-xxx upgraded to Android 8x not supported
Huawei Mate 10 Pro BLA-xxx upgraded to Android 8x not supported
Huawei P10 VTR-xxx upgraded to Android 8x not supported
Huawei P10 plus VKY-xxx upgraded to Android 8x not supported
Huawei Mate 9 MHA-xxx upgraded to Android 8x not supported

DC-unlocker works if you're on BLA-L29C432B142 or lower. They did something in B145 which fixed dc-unlockers unlock code generation and the backdoor they use with DC-Phoenix. And you can't use FH to downgrade either (Not tested on B145 but on B148-SP1).
I'm not sure what builds are on other custs, but this is the Night Shot update on C432.

F*ck, my phone was 142 and I have updated in 145 just out of the Box...
Damn.

Dc-unlocker Give it a crack might still work, you just need to make sure you put the phone into management mode so it can read it phone. Just unlocked mine last night. Running magisk v16 working decrypted twrp and emui 8.0

For future updates you will likely need the full ota and the nocheck recovery img from HWOTA8

The question is from 148 is this possible to Downgrade with Funky Huawei to lower, 142 for example and Root with DC unlocker ?

No it is not, at least one user couldn't (I know it's not much, but it's a friend of @Pretoriano80). I think someone in the Funky thread tried too.
It finds update and that but stays on 0% forever. He was trying to downgrade to both b145 and b142.

I have mate 10 pro running 8.0.0.141(c636) and I just tried dc it didnt work just got unknown error 375 everytime it tried to read it.

Has anyone tried BLA-A09 8.0.0.119(C567) I cant get dc unlocker to even recognize my phone.

Used DC Locker today on BLA-A09 8.0.0.111 fresh out of the box.
I followed these directions:

https://www.dc-unlocker.com/how-to-read-huawei-bootloader-unlock-code
The one issue I ran into was fastboot oem unlock wouldn't work initially. I went into developers options to find the oem unlocking feature greyed out. To fix this turn off automatic updates in developers options. Then put your sim card in and restart your phone. (I was keepoing the sim card out to prevent updates) I was able turn on the OEM unlocking feature after this.

I got it to work. I just had to change it from modem to phone

Guys, i just bought mate 10 lite and i have bunch of noob questions. Instead of starting new thread i wanted to ask here.
So my phone on RNE-L21C185B142 version. I read the forums and got my bootloader unlock code from dc-unlocker before its too late. So i am able to unlock my bootloader and root my phone right now.
1- Should i unlock my bootloader? I was using cyanogenmod and lineageos on my previous 2 phones. I like customize my phone thats why i install custom roms.
2-If i unlock my bootloader am i still able to get official updates somehow (like flashing from adb or twrp) without relocking bl?
3-If i install custom rom or root can i go back to stock 8.0.0.142 version so i can unlock my bl again?
Thanks in advance

Current Mate 10 Pro root possibilities?

Hello guys
I'm searching for a way to root my mate 10 pro.
My actual version is BLA -l29 8.0.0.157 C432
I searched the whole forum and saw that the DC solution does not work with the newest Android version. I'm really tired after reading so much guides but no guide will work.
Do you now the current solution to root my phone ?

Same here...
Hi,

If you already unlocked your phone, flash TWRP (see Attachments) in fastboot using this command: Flash recovery_ramdisk twrp6.img. Go to magisk official topic and download stable magisk release and flash it via TWRP.

I bought the login data for DC unlocked but if I try to scan it says error 375 .. what should I do now

I am just in contact with Ministry of Solutions to get an unlocking code. Fingers crossed... I will let you know how it goes. Not cheap at 30 Euros but oh well. He requires "friends and family" payment via PayPal, IMEI, and serial number.

Is this TWRP 3.2.3-0 is works with EMUI9?
Anyway thanks for sharing newer version of TWRP.

I got a solution.
As DC unlocker admin said, we should try the IMEI unlocker code option
Can someone test it ?

Ministry of Solutions worked fine for me on BLA -L29 8.0.0.157 (C432)

Hello,
I need to know if the latest Magisk is working with fw 8.0.0.146 C432 and above as a read about boot problems after upgrading the FW some time ago.
Maybe this only was with older Magisk 17.xx versions?
I would be happy if someone could tell me that latest Magisk is working now with my fw.
Thank you

v18 working for me on 8.0.0.157 (432)

I just received a refund from Ministry of Solutions, as they can no longer provide a code for my Mate 10 Pro. Not sure whether this applies to earlier firmwares (mine is BLA-L09, 8.0.0.137).
EDIT: Apparently the service is back up and running. I have since paid again and received an unlocking code. I haven't had a chance to test it yet.

Just to confirm I have unlocked bootloader with Ministry of Solutions code, and running magisk and TWRP. BLA-L09.

can also confirm received a working code to unlock my Bootloader from Ministry of solutions.

You need an unlock code from Huawei to unlock the bootloader, but since more than a year ago, Huawei doesn't provide unlock codes anymore

Huawei have stopped giving away the bootloader unlock codes, and most of the "3rd party" websites don't actualy provide this - those that promise the code are mostly fake and you should avoid giving them money (unless you like to giveaway money to scammers)
Anyway, even with the unlocked bootloader, you still don't have a TWRP port for the most recent updates of the Mate 20 Lite....

yeah but then probably huawei was giving the bootloader codes and now they aren't and it is very unlikely to get it. And you need to unlock bootloader if you want to root your phone.
