Unlock bootloader - Huawei P9 Questions & Answers

Hi y'all
I have tried unlocking the bootloader through official Huawei channels, without much success. I've tried entering with my EMUI user login, but being informed that the service is not available in my region. (By the way, I'm living in Norway)
Anybody had more luck using the official channels...?
A guide or link would be greatly appreciated

It doesn't work, save yourself the time and effort of messing around with 'official channels' and cough up the couple of euros it takes to get the unlock code from DCunlocker

Yeah---
I used that one to unlock mine... Was quick and paid using paypal. I just had to do paypal payment 18eur, mail them my IMEI code and a few time (less tahn 1 hour) after the unlock code was mailed to me... Just needed to enter the "foregein" sim, pda asks codes, me enter all done! lol!
But in general I was a bit suspicious about other sites since they didn't provide too many info and asked for weird payments methods like western union...

re above post
merely an adjustment, to pricing, that would benefit everyone in the forum, and deprive the profit making organisations of what should rightly be going to the forum instead of their pockets.
NO MENTION OF MEMBER/S MAKING PROFIT, Please read post clearly!
Btw : As per post on site www.htccode.com
Price: 22 USD / 18 EURO/ 15 GBP
Another vote from me for HTCcode.com
I just unlocked my Touch HD which was previously locked to Orange and is now happily running on O2
I had the unlock code within 30 minutes of making payment and they answered a question I emailed them within 5 minutes.
Great service!

Excellent service and response. Could communicate "live" via MSN. Even corrected me when I gave the wrong IMEI number.
Great service doesn't come cheap but can be relied upon. Highly recommended.

Don't bother your self, I've tried dc-unlocker a few days ago, and it ended not supporting my Huawei P20 Lite, and their support sucks, I've seen some posts on Reddit from people who contacted Huawei's support on twitter, and they positively responded with the code, try your chances.

Is there any method to get unlock code on Linux? All of the mentioned applications not working on Linux (tried with Wine). Maybe there are some cloud solutions that generate unlock code online?

You can try the DC Unlocker through a Virtual Machine, you better try it on a Windows 7.
@update, their technical support ( the contact form on the huawei's website ) can get your bootloader unlocking code, the only issue is that it takes a few days, til you receive it.

In the good, old days it was just a matter of submitting info like model, device id, imei, e-mail address via an on-line form to Huawei - hence not depending on the PC and its OS
You can try the app (Playstore tells me not available in my country)

Is there any working method (free or paid) for unlocking the bootloader of P20 Pro?

Hi everyone!
I am wondering if there is still a way for unlocking the bootloader of P20 Pro.
Basically, as you might already know, Huawei has removed the "bootloader unlock" page from its website. The paid service (DU-Unlocker) also does not have the device listed in its supported models.
Is there any working method now in 2019 whether it is free or paid or as a service that can unlock the bootloader of this device?
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
I used this guy on eBay:
https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/fonzdirect
It took him a few days to do it, but it worked great!
Cheers

Hello, pardon me for inquiring further if you truly meant bootloader unlock code for p20 pro from "fonzdirect" on ebay, the seller you mentioned, as he does not provide bootloader unlock codes. His service only unlocks the SIM card to be used on other mobile phone carriers outside of U.K. "02 network", Vodafone, and perhaps others. I did not find his store to provide the service in which this thread is referencing. For the sake of accuracy, might you be conflating the two?
I have paid MinistryofSolutions the 30Euros on Christmas Day for the p20 pro bootloader unlock; however, that was the week his unlock services went down. I was refunded my money that same afternoon and have noticed the website reflect his no longer being able to provide the codes. I cannot justify paying a cent more for FunkyHawaii for what I will use it for. I simply want VoLTE and VoWiFI to be enabled on AT&T through property flags. Cheers.

Anyone tried HalabTech?
I've never dealt with them before and I don't want to risk paying to mess up my phone.
I'm not allowed to post links but googling "halabtech p20 pro bootloader" should get you there if you feel rich and brave.

1080 hours (45 days) required for unlock!

Hey guys,
I am getting the message that 45 days are required to unlock my device.
Is there any way to get the unlock faster?
If someone would be willing to share their MI account for instant unlock, I would greatly appreciate it!
Nope there is no way. Just wait like us.
Try another version of mi unlock

So did creating a new Mi account and associating that with the device work (aka 'only' 360 hours) ? Otherwise I'd actually contact Xiaomi support if I were you; 45 days sounds kinda excessive ...

Where do I contact xiaomi support?
I haven't tried contacting myself, but
1) Check out the 'support prequisites' at: https://account.xiaomi.com/pass/retrievePassport?type=pwd&_locale=en_US
2) Now try your most suitable (it's region-based) option on: https://www.mi.com/global/contact/
Searching through the Mi Forum and it's successor Mi Community, there is no specific solution mentioned, just 'wait it out'.
Which Mi 9 version do you have; the Chinese, Global or EEA (European) version ? Most topics about it seem to concern the Chinese version, that's why it might - or not - be relevant ...
I was able to get it unlocked with the help of an awesome XDA member!!!
Could you please send pm/write in thread who help you? I get the same problem. 42 days left ?

Jealous. Is there a work around or how was it done?
waiting period is for account, not for device. so what you need is an account already pass the waiting period.
The person who helped me just used their account to log into my phone and the MI unlock app to do the process. I am not sharing the name with anyone since I have not asked for the person's permission to do that.

Re-obtaining a bootloader code from Huawei

Hi all,
Back when the P20 Pro was released and Huawei was still offering codes, I obtained one.
However I cannot for the life of me remember what I did with it, now a recent flash (my fault) of a service firmware, relocked my bootloader.
Do you think Huawei will give me my code again? Seeing as they aren't actually unlocking a new device or one out of the grace period back in July?
Who would be best to contact to check?
UK based.
I doubt that. But anyway, Huawei is doomed and so i suggest you wait. Maybe they will reopen bootloader unlocking

I'm not trying to obtain a bootloader code for the first time.
Simply trying to have the same one they have provided again.

If they replaced your motherboard then they changed the IMEI too, which means you need a new bootloader unlock

Ok so, i highly doubt they will give you the unlock code for your phone since they don't provide bootloader unlock codes, but you can give it a try using Hicare

What are you talking about?
I did not say I sent my device to them? I said I couldn't find the unlock code they sent me??
You're making things up.
Please don't worry about replying. This thread already looks mental.
I'm in the same boat. I'm so sure I saved it somewhere, but just can't find it now.
And what the heck is The Restless Soul on about? He's either on drugs or having a stroke, it's really weird.

Next time I call I'm mention I'm not alone. Calling tomorrow
So the unlock code depends on your IMEI, serial and product ID right - so it doesn't matter if the OS is upgraded?
I have my unlock code from March 2018 when I got the phone.

That's correct.
However if you rebranded by funky Huawei then your code will have altered and you won't be able to reuse it..
If you didn't, or you used the guide I worked on then you'll be fine..
Can I ask, how did you obtain the code? What method of delivery did they use?? I've checked every email I own and found nothing..
So it must have come up on screen during the unlock process, im annoyed at myself for not making a note, I didn't imagine I'd ever need it again..
That being said, this is my data which I obtained from Huawei and by law in entitled to a copy of it.
So they are obligated to assist.

I think it was around then, but perhaps end of April? I know I got in before anyone else.
There did use to be a website which would generate the boot codes for around 10EUR I think?
