I dont remember where i read, but i think the CODE maybe expired. Try to get a new code.
Also, be sure you got dev mode enabled and... another spam from guides:
"2- Connect your phone via data cable to PC.
3- Switch it off and then by pressing volume down and power together make it in fastboot mode (in this mode you will see "Phone locked" in red color at bottom of screen)
4- Click icon on desktop for "Minimal ADB and Fastboot"
5- (A command terminal will open indicating directory where adb is installed)
6- Type in command without quotes "fastboot devices"
7- If you can see serial number of your phone you are going right."

Maybe get a new code, and:
1-Use the command "adb-reboot fastboot"
2, Wait 'till it boots
3, use "fastboot oem relock code"

Hi,
I looked all over the place but could not find a way to unlock the bootloader of the latest version of my device. Currently running Android 6.0 H81120p and rooting this version as well!

did you click on screen when you gave the command to go into fastboot it shows some sort of numbers and leters and asks you if you want to allow phone .??/ did you
Yes I did allow the computer to have access to the phone, when i typed the command to reboot to bootloader it did, but then when i type the command to fastboot oem unlock it gets stuck on waiting for any device. I tried doing it again just to check, after i get to bootloader, i typed adb devices it doesn't show any device thats connected

I checked the oem unlock, and the USB debugging thing is checked as well. Developers Options is on but same issue. I installed the latest USB drivers, installed Google USB drivers. I went to device Manger and I can't see that my device is even connected!

i came across this try it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69339003&postcount=2
Use Linux dude, also try different cables. My stock g4 came with a bad cable that only charged.
I've had exactly the same problem as hammy88. Is what is referred to as "fastboot mode" the same as download mode? I know it's relatively easy to get into download mode. But "adb reboot bootloader" doesn't work for me.
Fastboot mode ≠ Download mode
If you did tick "Enable OEM unlock" , and adb reboot bootloader doesn't work, then I guess is BL is locked now.
I tried the method , i found that Android Bootloader does not have a green light, so i went to device manager to try to update the driver but it wasn't even there, clicked on view to show the hidden items or whatever then found android device, when i clicked update the driver i could not find the Google fastboot thing to update it with, all i got was either LG usb or ADB interface even thoough i downloader google fastboot usb drivers few days ago

Brother, be calm. Find the fastboot drivers. And update.
You will figure it out. Just do it.
Hi everyone,i have purchased xiaomi mi5 from AliExpress and i told the seller to not open the box,and thats what he did,he didnt open the box,so the phone came with stock Chinese stable miui 7.something,and when i updated,it updated directly to miui 8.1,no updated in between, straight to miui 8.1,but i want to install the global stable rom,the bootloader is locked,i have requested to unlock it but so far no news,i tried to boot in edl mode by holding the vol up,vol down and power and cable in at the same time and it boots in some mode but idk if its edl,as far as i know edl mode is with black screen with "Qualcomm HS-USB QDloader 9008" on the pc com ports,but in my case there is no such thing,and there is black and white phone with usb connect on the phone screen,but nothing on the pc,do i have problems with drivers or i dont enter edl at all ? and do any of you guys now any other method to install the global rom except the other one with the engineering cable ?, I really need your help guys please help me if you can,thank you in advance and have a great day
I've successfully updated my mi5 to global stable using the updater app even my bootloader is locked..however, when I got my mi5 2weeks it's on miui 8 global beta(dev rom) not chinese. Not sure if it will work on your device. Here's what I did:
1. Download global stable from xiaomi's official page
2. Reset the phone. (Settings > Additional settings > Back up & reset)
3. Transfer the zip file to phone (doesn't matter which directory)
4. Connect to a strong internet connection (this is important to verify the update package)
5. Open updater app, tap menu (upper right corner) then tap choose update package
6. Locate zip file and it will proceed with decryption process
Note: You need to be connected to a strong internet connection all through out the process or the verification and decryption will fail and get "can't verify update" error
Hope this helps. ?

I will try first what you tell me,if that doesn't work than i will try installing global beta if that works than global stable,thank you very much
No i didnt work with both beta and stable,now i will try to flash Chinese beta and after that i will try to install global beta or stable,i hope that works because i am out of ideas.
Screenshots:
Nope,nothing it didnt work unable to install global rom stable or beta,looks like i will wait for the bootloader unlock if any message comes at all i just hope they will let me unlock it,they definitely need to change the way bootloader is unlocked.
Coz you'r phone still has miui 7 (don't know in miui 8 coz never try it)..so i think you can try go into edl mode by adb command while in home screen.. "adb reboot edl" (don't forget to activate usb debugging in developer option first)

You don't need cutting you original cable..you can buy it like this one in aliexpress here , this already has converter too for usb type C
Sorry..i don't realize that fastboot oem edl just for unlocked bootloader..coz mine already unlocked, but i have some another way before you using deep flash cable to go into edl mode..but i can't testing it..coz mine already unlocked.
- I've read your first post about using hardware key to go into edl mode by pressing and hold vol up + vol down +(you said you're pressing power too, i think in this step you're wrong) then connect the usb cable..what i know..the right instruction is , pressing and hold vol up and down at the same time (without pressing power button)..then connect it via usb cable to your pc..then you can see in your device manager that success detecting as qualcom or not.
- In xiaomi redmi note 3 device you can go into edl mode through fastboot mode with command "fastboot reboot-edl", but this command only can apply with minimal adb that are already modified, you can download it from here
Are you sure @vlatko98 that your request to open bootloader is not granted? I made the request, waited for SMS for two weeks but nothing... So i navigated again to en.miui.com/unlock, logged in and I was able to download the mi unlock app. And the unlocking process was successfull.
If you havent, check if you can download unlock app and try to unlock your device with it.
How long ago have you made your request for unlock?

Sorry i didnt mention that i have tried with the vol buttons only as well,it didnt work,the phone boot up to recovery,same as holding the power button,soon i am trying with costume deep flash cable,there is no need to cut anything just to shourt ground and data from the usb connector that connects to the pc,i just dont understand why xiaomi if it plans to make global rom why not make it simple to change it,why users have to figure things out,we buy a phone to use it not to experiment with it,you hear me xiaomi ?
btw thx for helping me out.

If you already received sms that unlock already granted from xiaomi..there's another problem that sometimes your account not already correctly sync with xiaomi server..even already sync correctly still can't unlock flawlessly..
You can try following step and trying to unlock again and again..but just this time..just trying every day..if this day doesn't success too you can try it again tomorrow.
To make sure and minimize that everything is correctly:
- Make sure you're already at the latest china developer / beta rom..
- Enabling find device status at mi cloud in your phone..also just try login at i.mi.com (just this time try login with your acct number id) and activate find device too to make sure everything is sync correctly.
- Activate usb debugging and unlock in developer option in your phone..
- Trying unlock again with mi unlock..just this time try login with your acct number id too.
Hope it's help..and your phone can soon unlocked..

Hey guys,
I have recentley purchased a used Lenovo ZUK Z2 PRO from someone on Ebay, Later I found out that the original rom of this phone only supports English (mixed with chinese) and Chinese language, the whole Software looks too Iphoney for my taste so I rather have clean Stock android, prefferbly 7.1 8.0 or 8.1 as long as its stable and doesnt drain the battery too much, will someone be kind enough to help me out step by step? prefferbly via KIK messenger or something?
I've downloaded root checker to see if the phone has been rooted already it says root access is not properly installed on this device? see image below.

Hi, you have unlock bootloader . Maybe you have twrp . Just restart your phone and when you see start menu , press volume button and choose recovery . If you have twrp , just read Aex or RR threads , how to install the latest roms . It is bit difficult because of treble project . There are all informations about "how to install"

It isn't available in Zui 3.1 . You needn't unlock bootloader . When you restart your phone and see menu start ( for 5 sec ) use vol button to choose fastboot or recovery . Check it , maybe you have already had a Twrp .

In that case you have two ways to unlock bootloder
1. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rqcY7WyYi6AN9MyfUqVWwm1CMCe7Tbmv/view
2. put this file in your phone and rename it to update
https://mega.nz/#!lgxXCBpA!4OlvXDYaeof__h8TPHwXDUUKAijP-qn8lHgfOdVPBfw
run update app tap three dots at right upper edge and choose recovery . In recovery choose english and update
After that you get oem unlock in developer options .

for the 1st method the instructions aren't very clear, i see not 1 but different recovery images where can i get both? do i need both? and where can i get the txt file with all the commands? and the video ends at the 3rd or 4th command, does it mean the remaining commands are not important or what? and will this method help me get pass the OEM lock on my current ZUI 1.9 ?
for the 2nd method, do i have to unzip the zip file after i download it or no? and should i put it anywhere on the storage or does it have to be a specific map in the root or something>?

Downgrading Huawei P Smart, Unlocking bootloader and installing TWRP
Hello! In this tutorial i will show how you can, downgrade you phone, installing TWRP + root!
Why you need downgrade? You need to downgrade security patch to read bootloader unlock code.
Lets start!
Note: This method will cost 4euro/dollar. You need buy 4 credits to DC unlocker. Just google for it.
Note 2: Backup your important files. You need reset your phone twice.
Note 3: Im not resposible if you success to brick your phone. I can always help, if you have Discord you can contact ScaryG#8540/B] or just ask in comments
Note 4: Twrp wont work with custom roms :/
Also if something missing from tutorial, please tell down. I will fix them as soon as possible:good:
Part 1. Downgrading
You need 16 GB SD card. First format it to extFat. Then download firmware from androidhost.ru, i used FIG-LX1 8.0.0.128A(C432) Download it. ( Links below! ) Then find dload folder from zip and extract into SD card (Remember to format SD Card into extFat)
Wait until it extracts. Now put your SD Card into your phone. Call *#*#2846579#*#*, locate for software upgrade and press SDCard Upgrade button. Now your phone is installing the update. Wait until installs. After install, you should get bootloop. In this part Press Volume UP + Power button, go to recovery and do factory reset. Now wait until boots. Go to settings -> about, and you should see version (128A). Boom! You have done downgrade...
Part 2. Unlocking Bootloader
Okay. Now get DC Unlocker ready, select auto detect Huawei Phones. Now go to again call to *#*#2846579#*#* and enable manufacturer mode. Try auto detect. It should detect your phone. Now simply, press the Unlock button. You should get your bootloader code, take it up. Enable developer options on your phone, go to USB Debugging and turn it on, also turn OEM Unlocking on. Then open cmd and type cd (same path as dc unlocker folder). Type adb devices It should start ADB daemon. Check your phone, you should get ADB trust popup, Allow it! Then check again adb devices, your device should be there. Now type adb reboot bootloader After it type: fastboot oem unlock (your key) ex. fastboot oem unlock 12345678. Check your phone, and press yes. Yeet! Your bootloader is now unlocked! Type fastboot reboot to reboot! Now goes kinda easy part!
Part 3. Installing TWRP
Download TWRP for Huawei P Smart. I put links below.
Move file to same folder as DC Unlocker and rename it to recovery.img
Anyways, your phone should be resetted again...
Go again enable developer options + enabling USB Debugging. Then again confirm...
Now do again adb reboot bootloader now type fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery.img Now it should be flashed. Get into TWRP by pressing Power button and Volume up. Now you can root and flash zips!
Thats it, i hope it helped :good:

You need download the update, then extract all from zip. Not only update app.

Hi ! Hope you saved the unlock code somewhere
If yes, you can upgrade any way you want. Just redo 'fastboot oem unlock xxxxx' after successful upgrade. (Worked for me on EMUI 9.0.1.115)
It will unlock and wipe again..
As for me, this is the point I'm stuck at :
- latest EMUI FIG-LX1 9.0.1.120 (C432)
- bootloader unlocked
- can flash twrp, allow it to prevent being overriden, then flash Magisk 19.3 without error in the log.
After that, phone boots ok but Magisk Manager says 'not installed' and TWRP must be reflashed again.
Anyone can help further ? I've read about patched boot images to be flashed with fastboot. Are they just Magisk patched or some additional security level hacking required ?
Thanks XDA
Hi.
Just FYI, afters hours, I managed to finish the procedure and restore full root/magisk under latest EMUI 9.1.0.120 (E)
I had to use magisk uninstaller under TWRP, then reflashed Magisk 19.3
Now everything sticks :
- TWRP 3.2.0_1
- Root access
- Magisk is detected as installed and running
I mainly use "systemless hosts" with Adaway and it's OK.
Did not test any other module yet.

Just unlock bootloader with same way on emui 9.
Hey there! I've tried downgrading but i instantly get the message "Software install failed." before it even starts to install. Any ideas?
Can't downgrade from android 9.1, everytime said Software install failed
Thanks for the tutorial. I was able to install the older EMUI 8.0 version and unlock the bootloader of a FIG-LX1 (C432). Two tips:
I was able to use a uSD formatted in FAT32, I did not need to format it again using ExtFAT
When using the DC Huawei Bootloader Codes app from PlayStore to buy the credits, select Android 7 to get charged for just 4 credits, otherwise it will try to charge for a 3-day license
Make sure the phone has 8.0.0.128A or older, and DC Unlocker 2 recognizes the phone properly before buying anything (if it is not the correct version, it will tell you to use the test/probe point method)

Downgrading Huawei P Smart, Unlocking bootloader and installing TWRP
Hello! In this tutorial i will show how you can, downgrade you phone, installing TWRP + root!
Why you need downgrade? You need to downgrade security patch to read bootloader unlock code.
Lets start!
Note: This method will cost 4euro/dollar. You need buy 4 credits to DC unlocker. Just google for it.
Note 2: Backup your important files. You need reset your phone twice.
Note 3: Im not resposible if you success to brick your phone. I can always help, if you have Discord you can contact ScaryG#8540/B] or just ask in comments
Note 4: Twrp wont work with custom roms :/
Also if something missing from tutorial, please tell down. I will fix them as soon as possible:good:
Part 1. Downgrading
You need 16 GB SD card. First format it to extFat. Then download firmware from androidhost.ru, i used FIG-LX1 8.0.0.128A(C432) Download it. ( Links below! ) Then find dload folder from zip and extract into SD card (Remember to format SD Card into extFat)
Wait until it extracts. Now put your SD Card into your phone. Call *#*#2846579#*#*, locate for software upgrade and press SDCard Upgrade button. Now your phone is installing the update. Wait until installs. After install, you should get bootloop. In this part Press Volume UP + Power button, go to recovery and do factory reset. Now wait until boots. Go to settings -> about, and you should see version (128A). Boom! You have done downgrade...
Part 2. Unlocking Bootloader
Okay. Now get DC Unlocker ready, select auto detect Huawei Phones. Now go to again call to *#*#2846579#*#* and enable manufacturer mode. Try auto detect. It should detect your phone. Now simply, press the Unlock button. You should get your bootloader code, take it up. Enable developer options on your phone, go to USB Debugging and turn it on, also turn OEM Unlocking on. Then open cmd and type cd (same path as dc unlocker folder). Type adb devices It should start ADB daemon. Check your phone, you should get ADB trust popup, Allow it! Then check again adb devices, your device should be there. Now type adb reboot bootloader After it type: fastboot oem unlock (your key) ex. fastboot oem unlock 12345678. Check your phone, and press yes. Yeet! Your bootloader is now unlocked! Type fastboot reboot to reboot! Now goes kinda easy part!
Part 3. Installing TWRP
Download TWRP for Huawei P Smart. I put links below.
Move file to same folder as DC Unlocker and rename it to recovery.img
Anyways, your phone should be resetted again...
Go again enable developer options + enabling USB Debugging. Then again confirm...
Now do again adb reboot bootloader now type fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery.img Now it should be flashed. Get into TWRP by pressing Power button and Volume up. Now you can root and flash zips!
Thats it, i hope it helped :good:

I can only thank you hugely for this clear concise instruction. Well worth £3.41 to DC Unlocker developers! Finally an unlocked bootloader on my wifes phone. I'm a definite Xiaomi phone fan compared to the ridiculous hoops Huawei make people go thru with their locked down phones. Gave up with Samsung years back too for the same reason. Cheers
Hello , I have model FIG LX1 and I want to flash roms. I need to follow this guide ?
And basically I have to pay ? What the hell
