Unlock Bootloader Android N - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I wonder how can I unlock bootloader in new version of Android 7.0? Nexus Tool kit should work to unlock bootloader Nexus 6? I'm in version MM stock locked bootloader.

The unlock methods haven't changed. ADB, Fastboot, the USB drivers from Google, and a keyboard are all you need to get unlocked.

i see on this site 3 ° i Will do ... Needs fix flash manual on fastboot i dont know this fixhttp://www.androidsage.com/2016/08/25/3-ways-to-root-android-7-0-nougat-on-nexus-running-official-aosp/

There are tutorials in the general forum, such as the Nexus 6 all-in-one guide, you could follow, rather than some other site people may not have heard of.

How to remove google account on Nexus 6 Nougat ?

I have a problem on my Nexus 6 with android 7
i can't flash downgrade other verison because can't unlock bootloader ,
i can't choise unlock OEM because it have google account ,
everybody can help me !
EDIT: My original comments were related to bypassing Factory Reset Protection, based upon the post's mention of not being able to OEM unlock because of the presence of a Google account. Taking a second reading of it, the situation may not be that cut-and-dried.
Unlocking the bootloader doesn't require a Google account to accomplish. All that matters is being able to get into Developer Options and then using fastboot commands in the bootloader. Unlocking the bootloader I do believe can be done with the toggle grayed out in that position, but I believe you would need to sideload an Android 6.0.1 OTA to do it.
Check out this post and see if that helps you out.

Hi, sorry that this is old, but I've had my XT1900-5 for a few months and want to start rooting it finally. But I haven't bothered much because of the issue I've read about unlocking this bootloader. What signed ROM etc. ? Any help to get me started would be useful.
no complexity,just follow the instructions in moto website , copy the code properly(use the moto recommended tool for accuracy) & you are good to go,for twrp & root see the forum.

can we unlock the bootloader

It ws esy unlocking the bl in g5s+ , what about the z3 play, wife surprised me with this phone, im liking it already, but would like to unlock the bl and eve tually gain root/custom recovery ?
Anyone?
Depends on the model you have specifically, certain ones cant be unlocked such as amazon version. But the steps are the same as all other android phone bootloader unlocks, Steps can be found on motorola website:
https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a
The basics consist of:
enable developer mode
enable "OEM Unlock" in developer settings
fastboot into phones bootloader and run OEM unlock commands
copy unlock code from phone that you get using oem unlocking commands into motorola website
receive email from motorola with unlock "password"
enter password into adb terminal
phone will be wiped and bootloader unlocked
Thats what i thought, i went there just to see , looks the same as for my G5S+ , ill likely do this. Is there guide somewhere on instally magisk as im outdated ( an old chainfire guy) just need some hints , doesnt look like twrp works , what about clockwork mod? Thats fine as well, , any good roms? Think 9 is comming?
Magisk root is straight forward. You can either get a working boot.img for your device from a firmware package and patch/flash it yourself. Or boot NOT flash the twrp images from the twrp website and install the magisk zip that way. The twrp for this device hasn't been compiled for flashing. It boots but flashing it to your device will boot loop it. No custom ROMs that I know of but I'm just using stock with magisk and it's fine once you have root to delete the bloat ware apps and install tweaks from magisk.

will we ever get a Nokia 8 custom ROM?

The official bootloader unlock method has been out for a while. Its almost 2 years since the phone has been released. I was hoping by now maybe some developer would have picked this phone up and put it to use. Is there a reason why nobody has bothered to start development on this phone and build a custom ROM? I think this phone has great potential given its specs and price. It would be nice to so further customizations beyond those allowed by rooting the phone.
I could do it too if I had any amount of knowledge about Android development, but sadly im a noobie.
What are your thoights?
It's not possible I guess. And Nokia has locked down. Unlocking bootloader. I have Nokia official app and it says Device not support.

No, Nokia hasnt locked it down. The bootloader unlock method only works up to the November Oreo security update. Just downgrade to Oreo November security update then unlock the bootloader, and then upgrade back to Pie.
See this thread for instructions https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-8/development/unofficial-official-nokia-8-bootloader-t3898418

How to unlock bootloader on Oneplus Nord N100

Hello everybody
I need to know if there is a method to unlock the bootloader for an Oneplus Nord N100 but the BE2015 model (Metro PCS by T-Mobile) because I have not found out how to do it in this Forums
My smartphone is running Android 11 by an update (version 11.0.9.BE82CF).
My goal is to unlock the bootloader in order to install TWRP for a future custon ROM
Thanks to everybody and excuse my English.
Happy 2023
If I understand correctly you have to have the phone for 180(?) days and then "OEM unlock" will be available in developer settings. Then you have to request en unlock token from T-Mobile. (I don't have an american phone, I'm not 100% on the method)
You can get an unstable TWRP for this phone, but it will have very limited functionality. And custom ROMs is basically a forgotten dream on this phone.
Basically what you can do is sideload Magisk through TWRP (you have to use adb sideload command) and some people have installed GSI ROMs.

Really I bought the phone already unlocked, it has the "OEM unlock" function in the "Developer options". Because I didn't buy the phone directly from T-Mobile it's impossible to request the unlock token, so better I continue using it normally until I can buy another phone (I didn't comment but I live in Cuba...)
Thanks anyway for your answer...

I think you might be able to load a European/Global ROM through MSM tools. Then you can use OEM unlock command without token. Rummage through the N100 forums here and you can find guides.

I already searched and the ROMs are for BE2011/BE2013 models and mine is BE2015. My fear is to brick the phone in the process because it has a modified ROM especially for T-Mobile, thanks anyway

If all you want to do is unlock the bootloader I think you can just do this.
** WARNING: YOUR DATA WILL BE WIPED **
1. enable developer options -> oem unlock
2. start adb
3. adb reboot fastboot
4 fastboot oem unlock
if step 4 fails then try
5. fastboot reboot fastboot
6. fastboot oem unlock
The phone will show a screen to confirm unlocking. YOUR DATA WILL BE WIPED.
7. fastboot reboot
The phone should reboot. Unfortunately It will display an annoying message warning the bootloader is unlocked for quite a while before it boots into system from now on.
BTW: I had problems with twrp 3.5 for Nord N100 floating around these forums. Latest is twrp 3.7 which I'm still suspicious of. All of my flashing using TWRP on the N100 has resulted in bricking.
My successful flashes have been with fastboot.
I use TWRP on another phone and it works like a dream.
Hi,
In step 3, do
adb reboot bootloader
This will reboot in the ancient fastboot, not fastbootd. This is in this mode that you can unlock the bootloader.
