[Q] Bootloader Unlock - LG Optimus 4X HD

I have issues installing the drivers needed to unlock the bootloader. Please help.
How do I install the CT_HsPhone_General drivers? I've double clicked the install.exe but nothing happened
I've also run the filterdiverinstaller.exe. I dont understand chinese so i clicked both options and nothing happened.
Thanks in advance

There are so many tutorials for unlocking bootloaders so search for them please!

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!

finally i saw 'unlock bootlaoder?' screen on the last step, selected 'yes' and rebooted.
but my device is still locked.
ive tried all process once again but 'unlock bootloader?' screen on the last step doesnt appear on my device anymore....
i got token again and again but all of them didnt work.(even first one doesnt work anymore: unlock bootloader screen doesnt appear)
ive tried re-lock my device with this command: fastboot oem lock
my device re-locked successfully(RE-LOCKED appeared on the top of screen at bootloader menu)
and then, i tried to unlock again, 'unlock bootloader?' screen successfully appeared on the last step.
i selected 'yes' and rebooted
BUT IT IS STILL LOCKED.

Here you go buddy - follow Mike's guide here - works fine , all I had to do was choose a different custom back up than the one posted in the guide and not change the name to recovery.img , but leave the one you select as named - like recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.3.1-m7 , so your final command line would would read fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.3.1-m7 , see the guide and you'll understand what im on about
you can search XDA for the custom recovery you want and also have a look here

Bootloader Won't Unlock

Soo, trying to unlock my C6603 bootloader via adb however I'm having some problems.
- I'm getting "Failed" and then if I try a second time "Okay" (connected properly, returned version 0.5)
- Then I'm stuck in a bootloop and cannot turn my phone back on and need to wipe my data.
- Note: Bootloader Unlock Allowed: Yes
Any ideas?...

Which operation system are you using? Did you follow the steps on the sony webpage?
4.3 Rooted (Using the steps on this forum.) I did try to unlock the bootloader previous to rooting the phone and still the same problem..
Here are screenshots of my settings and (cropped) service menu for reference.
(Sorry for double post, the app will not let me edit...)
Yes, I followed all steps on the unlockbootloader Sony webpage, exactly.

I meant the os on your pc, if it is Windows 8 or 8.1 you have to do some tricks. I can't remember though what tricks, you'll have to search for it

I also tried the Flashtool's built-in Bootloader Unlocking Tool. Exact same deal..

Alright I have no idea how I did it, but I just put my phone in flashmode and kept disconnecting the USB and reconnecting it and messed with Flashtool.. Somehow I ended up unlocking it... I'm so angry but happy right now. I wish I could provide a solution.. But I can't... I think my bootloader was just corrupt or had an error..
Anyway, now I'm running the Pac-Man Nightly 4.4 KitKat ROM . Yaaay.
I was considering learning Java and just tinkering with this.. But.. This has been so frustrating... Taken days.. Gah..

[Q] Extremely Slow Xperia SP

Im really sorry for posting this question, but im really really noob at this.
I Have a Xperia SP C5303 with stock Android 4.3 and 12.1.A.1.205 and bootloader locked.
My phone is getting extremely slow at everthing, all applications take huge time to load, sometimes even crash, i cleared all cache on applications, even deleted all my messages (1.5years) and nothing worked. Started in safe mode and its pretty fast.
Im tempted to update my SP to a custom rom 4.4.x or even 5.xx .....but i really dont know nothing about it. Dont know how should i proceed and what steps should i take to backup and prevent any problem in case of something goes wrong.
I already used the "towelroot" and installed SuperSU from google playstore and it says its rooted, but already read somewhere that towelroot doesnt actually really root.
I really really appreciate a huge help on this if possible.
Thank you very much.

first of all (search for doing this !! )
take a TA partition backup and then unlock your bootloader .....then install the recoveries on the stock ROM>>then replay to me after that
Ok. Thank you.
Already did the TA Backup with Backup-TA-9.11, now moving on to search "unlocking bootloader"....

I think unlocking your bootloader resets everything so backup your apps for re installation once your are done.
I unlocked my bootloader the good old fashioned way via fastboot :
1 - Check if unlocking possible by typing *#*#7378423#*#* in the dialer and going into Service info > Configuration.
2 - If it says something like Bootloader unlock allowed - Yes then its unlockable. If its already unlocked, it will say something along those line as well.
If neither option appears then it isn't unlockable.
3 - Get the unlock code from Sony after filling the necessary details along with the IMEI no. of the phone.
3 - Open command prompt in the adb & flashboot folder by holding Shift + right click and selecting the "open command window here" option.
4 - Type fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version to check if device is connected properly.
5 - Type fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xKEY. Repalce KEY with the code that was received from Sony and hit Enter.
Alternatively the BLU option in FlashTool can be used to simplify things as it automates most of the above procedure. It can also be used to relock your bootloader.
There's also a new app called Kingo SONY Bootloader Unlock that apparently unlocks your bootloader with one click. Check it out.
I was doing that at the moment. Im using Fastboot also ....since i didnt find other ways
Already made a copy of everthing i can remember and used Titan backup also.
My phone says "Bootloader unlock allowed : no" , but im still trying doing all the thing....i read somewhere that sometimes works.
At the moment im stuck in connecting the phone in the computer with volume up ...and testing the fastboot getvar version to check if the phone is connected....but stays there....waiting for device...and nothing ...

If it says no then dunno what the chances of success are.
Came across this Youtube tutorial : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Li8Eim6gugw
Don't know how legit it is since its been posted a few months back and there are no comments at all so please proceed with caution and of course don't blame me if you brick your device
Also did you try the Kingo unlock app I mentioned?
Nothing works...cant really connect in Fastboot mode...i tried everthing...even in 3 diferent computers...nothing works.
Dont know if "bootloader unlock allowed : no" means that i cannot enter in fastboot mode....or if im doing something wrong...
Just install some 4.4.4 lbl build, for example cm11 by mateo337 is really good and even up-to-date.
You will not be able to unlock the boot loader i had XSP that said no and i was not able to do anything about it.
Dont use 5.x.x builds, they are really outdated and have a lot of bugs.
So, then i suppose the next step its to install a LBL Recovery? So i can boot in recovery to flash the custom rom....right?

No you should still be able to enter fastboot mode. Are you using the latest version of FlashTool and have you installed all 3 required drivers? Does your phone show up in device manager when you connect it in fast boot mode?
I am not sure abt the last 2 procedures I posted but the first 2 require your phone to boot into fastboot and stay there till the job's done.

Yeah. Since your phone's rooted now, you can follow a LBL procedure for flashing a custom recovery to allow you to install custom ROMs.

Huawei Honor Note 8 root

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.

Click to collapse
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.

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"..
