Hi to everybody.
After soft bricking my sim-unlocked X8 due to install attempt of the lates tGingerbread v23 rom with alfadons and overclock-module, I had to use SEUS to flash an OEM rom and baseband.
Now I tried to re-root and unlock the bootloader several times but unfortunately the last string in cmd window is: not recognized simlock... or something similar.
After doing a lot of forum search there are plenty of hints telling that there's nothing to do. no possibility to install custom rom.
I tried it anyway and still soft brick (SE logo appears and nothing else..)..
So I decided to re-flash the OEM Rom and use the phone this way BUT......it works fine only WITHOUT a sim card inserted. If the sim card is inserter no icons appear, no button working. The only thing you see is the background immage...
Can anybody help me??????

No, you dont have to buy a new phone.
Just go to the store and say that this happened when im updated my phone with pccompanion.
My buddy did that twice and they did believe him, and hes phone got repaired for free.

Unfotunately that's not possible as yhe phoen is an "3 italia" sim-locked phone bougth in italy obviously and I moved to germany now..... The bill is still at home in Italy....
3 Italy would immediately notice the phone has been sim-unlocked...and I would have to pay the whole listing proce of the period when I bought the phone and would have to pay a high penality too...
That woudl be more than 400 euro in sum.....not worth....
Thanks to everybody who tried to help me

Have you tried re-locking your phone? ONLY IN STOCK ROM, PLS!
How can I sim-lock it again?

Don't take it to the 3 store. Take it so the Sony Ericsson store and tell them what DevStaffAndroid said. You will need to have warranty though.

1) Download the original stock rom. run flash tool to flash the stock rom.
2) Run S1 tool, press " RESTORE" button!
At the stage, no harm trying!
Hi folks!
Sorry for the post (I know it has probably been asked before) but I could not find the answer by seaching so I have to ask again...
My friend has a Galaxy S with stock german T-Mobile software on (he does not know the version). He has forgotten his unlock pattern and the phone does not recognize his Gmail login! He has accepted the fact that his data is probably lost but when I boot the phone into bootloader and select a factory reset the handset is still locked when booting up again?
I have never encountered that problem before so I really hope you know the solution I am a WP7 man myself so my knowledge of Android is basic (know how it works but have never tried to flash new firmware etc.)
/Anders
Boot into dl mode and flash an unbranded stock fw using Odin. You'll find many tutos on how to do that.

factory reset will not work, you can use ADB , How to guide on My Android Collections link below, or flash a kernel or do the whole thing as Dark Knight suggested earlier

May not vibrate, but should have a message on your screen saying something like "super user..."
I managed it on my phone :good:

Hi all,
I have the same problem .
I want to root my razr i (because of several notification ads) but I can't. I can't unlock the bootloader via the motorola web page ("your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking"). So I have to use motofail2go.
Everything is fine until "trigger a bug report"... Nothing happens when I press both power and volume up buttons... So the root doesn't success.
I accepted a few days ago the update 81.5.40002.XT890.Retail.en.EU
Can you help me plz ?
Thanks :good:
My english is not perfect so if I missed something I would be happy to know what :highfive: Is there an option to activate reporting bug ?

They probably patched the root.
Thank you for your answer.
I tried again with motorola website. I put the same key and I didn't get any error message this time, so I was able to unlock the bootloader. And my phone is rooted now with your package. I don't understand why but it's OK now
The bug report still not working but it's not important now :good:
Thanks.:victory:
You can't root 40002 with motofail2go as far as know.
I tried it about one hour and it's definitely not possible to root the 39002 and 40002 without unlocking the BL. No one here in Germany was able to root this Updates without unlocking.
And BTW: If you're locked, DON'T try to downgrade with RSD. You will fail!
I get asked a lot how I rooted my Huawei Honor Note 8 so I thought I'd do a basic how to from memory on how I did it. It's relatively easy to do.
You'll need your phone's bootloader unlocked.
The files from Huawei's forums http://club.huawei.com/thread-10828573-1-1.html or https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwyaxIga7s0qc0ZKRGtsdndwV3M/view?usp=sharing
The app is in chinese but has some english on the buttons.
To unlock bootloader:
Got bootloader unlock code with the app on the playstore "DC Huawei Bootloader Codes" (took about 8 hours to get)
Enable USB debugging on the phone & connect it to the computer.
Unlock the bootloader with the program downloaded. Use the first button on the first tab labeled bootloader. Put in unlock code in the pop up box & click ok.
To root:
Enable USB debugging on the phone & connect it to the computer.
Flash the recovery_twrp.img file with the program downloaded. Use the 2nd button on the first tab labeled recovery.
To change twrp into english, click on the 3rd down 2nd row button & then click on the globe button. The globe is really hard to hit! Keep trying till you get it Then select English.
Install SuperSU with TWRP
Should now be rooted!
Question. Is there anything I should do like backup my bootloader or something before starting this process?
benmeroff said:
Unlocking your bootloader will wipe the device; factory reset for sure, and I believe it also erases your internal storage (don't quote me on that though, not sure for this phone), but your OS will remain whatever stock version you had installed until you flash something else.

I did not backup anything.
Ok thanks.. I appreciate it
I have a question, or making a root and unlock the bootloader is associated with a full reset your data and settings that can be done root without losing data?
Nope

Hi guys
I unlocked my note 8 successfully . In startup screen show your devives is unlocked and can not be trusted every time i restar the phone is it normal?
Second thing i flashed twrp by clicking on recovery button then after restarted i clicked on 3rd button of second row to change to english but it didnt say click on english
How to enter twrp recovey i tried pressing power button and volume up nothing happened
Plz help
Yuppers.. not trusted cuz ya unlocked it.
Should be volume up & power. You can also do it with the app. The 2nd tab... recovery. Will boot it into recovery too.
You have to click the globe button on the far right to get to the language. It's a ***** to hit! BTW... TWRP has reverted back to chinese a few time now for some reason on mine. It's kind of annoying considering how hard it is to hit that one button.
Questions about the root process
1) why do you need the unlock code?
2) Where can I find SuperSU for honor note 8? Can someone please provide a link?
3) Has anyone succeeded rooting?
Thanks in advance for the answers.
Please Help!
Everything was find, I unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP, when I flashed SuperSU it bootloops!
Can someone please help.....
I'm not sure why it would be boot looping. I'd flash it again. Might even try a factory reset before flashing too. You're the first I've heard of with that problem. Make sure you're on version 22.

Glad to hear it worked out!

Please help
The Huawei ID used to apply for the unlock code has not been used on the device for more than 14 days. Huawei site error
DC Huawei Bootloader Codes not working
please help
Hi,
I read of the possibility of the root of honor note 8 through oneclickroot, kingroot, etc.
It must first be unlocked bootloader or the software will to unlock?
For unlocking the bootloader you must use to force pay program dc-unlocker?
Thank you

in the app, there is another way to get it. choose not by imei.
write the developer of the app you did not get the code and you want a refund, and pay for the second method. this is how i did it.

Great! Many thanks for your quick reply! I contacted dc-unlocker support and thats what they replied..
Hello, this codes is from factory DB. Sorry, but there not all phones present in this db.
This happens frequently if phone has MEID .
But you can read code by cable, we support almost all huawei.
If reading by cable not acceptable we can do refund.
Im waiting for their next answers at my qustions, what exactly have i do..
I have to download their soft probably and make everything there..
I had no time to check their forum yet, im sure there will be instructions..
EDIT:
Oki so i used DC-unlocker software, received these codes and unlocked Bootloader successfully!
I have rooted both phones already!
I had an issues with ADB drivers on Win10 and on Win7 as well, could not find my devices in devices manager but i have solved it!
TWRP 3.02 with preinstalled SuperSU works fine on B027.. In one of my phones i had B029 so i had to downgrade to B027..
On B029 doesnt work flash command in cmd.. Stuck on "waiting for device"..

As of right now me and you are the only two that seem to have this issue.when I get home from work I'm going to go ahead and I'm actually going to relock my bootloader and and do everything and then I'm going to unlock it and see what happens.I can let you know in this thread if it works for me and that way you don't have to waste your time unlocking and relocking
Yes please
i would say lock and unlock again and just install everything again

So i locked the bootloader ,then unlocked it and did a fresh install of 11 and i have face unlock back

I locked the bootloader then rebooted back into the boot loader and unlocked it and then flashed
Works for me too.
In past issues with face unlock, the fix was to perform a factory reset (Settings - System - Reset options - Erase all data) before flashing a new rom. Supposedly the chip that face data is stored is not cleared until you do a factory reset. Unsure if a full wipe clears the chip. You can try this next time ... may be easier than doing a bootloader lock/unlock.

Hi, My face unlock is also messed up after updating to Android 11 (it keeps saying “fit face into frame” without letting me register my ugly face...)
Did you encounter the problem after rooting? I’m trying to figure out how to solve this, as I had no success with factory reset or flashing OTAs and factory images

I had the exact same problem as you. face unlock became unreliable after the Android 11 upgrade, so I deleted face data and tried to set up again. It keeps saying 'fit face into frame' no matter the angle or the lighting. Did a factory reset and no improvement. I have never rooted or unlocked the bootloader on this phone. I informed google support and they are sending me a replacement.
Just to share an experience with the community: After android 11 update I was having glitches with face unlock. (Totally stock, no root & all latest ota) This got worse until it wouldn't work at all. Deleting face & starting over didn't work as it just refused to even acknowledge trying to register anything. Then the auto brightness starting flicking up and down and finally half the screen disappeared under green flickering. A factory hard reset made no difference. I even did it twice but the welcome screen on rebooting was still covered in green flickering. Searching for a new phone reluctantly. I picked up my pixel 4xl again to see if I could think of a way of selling it for any purpose & it was fine! Set up & reinstalled a backup & everything including face unlock works perfectly like new. What was all that about!?
Can you describe full algorithm for noob, please?

I've done relocking bootloader, but it didn`t help, face unlock still not working, OC is stock, latest.
I dunno what's the situation of you guys
But let me share my experience
I was having lock screen lags in Android 11
So I flashed the previous Android 10 image
It broke the face unlock and still broken even after flashing the full Android 11 image with wipe
What I did was flashing back to Android 10 again
Then update to Android 11 through OTA
This also was the method in r beta to fix face unlock issues

This is a known problem, and so far Google has not fixed it. Unsure if they ever will.
