Faith for Note 9 AT&T Root possibility ?

Who here has hopes and dreams for their note 9 to have root ? At this point there's no point of asking for a UL Bootloader.. Just faith for Root ! I feel like someone will crack this for this phone.

Not gonna happen.

Why do you say this ?

I have ZERO faith.

I think this is the first phone I am not looking forward to root. Android came a long way with all the features it offers I haven't thought about rooting my Note.

Development for all US models has almost stopped. Other than adaway and a couple of other things that require root, what more do you need root for?

Exactly. There isn't much you need root for nowadays.

There is really no real reason to root.

Zero chance for root/unlocked bootloader.

Why not sell your Snapdragon Note 9 and get a Exynos Note 9 ? Swappa is a good place to sell your Note 9 and purchase a Exynos from clove uk they ship to USA..

Bruh what? Evidently you haven't had a Galaxy phone in awhile. You'll grow very old waiting for root on the Snapdragon version... BRUH

Not if you're a developer. For example, in my app, I need to turn on hotspot programmatically, but since srtWifiEnabled method is private, even with reflection, it need privileged permissions, i.e., root. Even Tasker fails to toggle hotspot due to this. Only root can fix this.

I have had galaxy s8 plus , 7 and 4 and 5. i rooted them all ! samfail rooted s8 plus ! so i don't understand why people keep saying you can't root snap dragon. i think the only one that isn't rootable at all is the s9 plus ? right ? cause i rooted every single S i had.

I was fine with the 80 percent, with all the tweaks and bloatware you can remove it's pretty good with just 80 percent. i mean it's basically at 100 but says it's 80. BTW google pixel is done lolol they don't even have a headphone jack.

Everyone said the Note8 wouldn't be rooted and that happened rather quickly. I wouldn't hold my breath, but it's possible.

[Solved] Victim of a Fraud from Ebay seller

I purchased Lg G6 unlocked t-mobile from ebay India on a half price of original "this is what I was patting my back with pride for" for a while though. Well, today I got a prompt on my phone screen that T-mobile temporary unlock period is expired, please reboot. I could smell the issue by now and as soon as I rebooted another message said "Network Lock". Now my sim does not have network signals. It is as good as a brick because I do not have t-mobile sim nor I think this phone was outright'ly purchased before it landed in my hands.
Looking for options:
1) does flashing custom rom (If available) release the network lock?
2) are there software available that can unlock without t-mobile sim?
3) are there paid unlock services available for foreign network?
4) any other that I am not aware of?

Sadly only option is to return/get a refund for the phone I’m sure eBay will work in your favour due to this.
Try the network unlock app (purple icon) and request unlock that way. Make sure your on WiFi.
If that doesn’t work only solution is to buy a app unlock on eBay which usually varies in price. And that’s only if the phones imei is not blacklisted

Thanks for the guidance.
I contacted my local market repair shop, he tried unlocking with his software but failed. He tried unlocking by sending a request to some recognised network unlocker but failed. Now he is suggesting a solution that a modified software flashing can be done to revoke the network lock from it for which I'm unsure about.
While surfing for the resolution, I have come across 2 options,
1 - flashing a ROM for H872 from this xda post.
2 - Have gone through several "GSMHosting" forum pages and people are doing network unlocking at ease with logs as proof. Is this all legit?

1. Flashing a rom is not going to unlock it.
2. No it’s not legit to unlock a T-Mobile phone unless T-Mobile themselfs unlock it. But there’s plenty of app unlocking services on eBay between $15 and $30 usually. And if they can’t unlock it it’ll just be a WiFi only device.

Its not that I read your post after a month but I responded late cuz been busy with my stuff and 2ndly your phone still works. I have helped about 21 people so far who have network lock issue, few came back to me to say it worked for them and few dint. All I know is that it worked for me and may work for others too. If my intention was just to keep it to myself I would have already wiped out my relevant posts.
However, thats not the point, point is this forum have ample of info already to understand how to fix this issue but all it takes is to read through all the pages and posts which most people dont take pain for.

Do you want me to post the solution in public? I thought that is what YOU DIDN'T want?
Listen, arif238 just decided it was ez'ier to quote everyone who posted asking you a question of the solution, folks who were basically in the same boat with him. What do we call this...lazy fingers. My response was calling this out, if you didn't realize. He too should have written you a DM for the solution, right?
BTW again thanx for sharing the solution with me. I didn't pursue it though. I decided to return the units and got a US997.

Please helpp!!
I have the same problem. I got my phone online for half price too! At first when I entered my local sim, it was working. The phone was new so I wanted to explore it and opened the device unlock app to see what it was about. Tried pressing permanent unlock but it said failed. Then tried temporary and it approved. 2 days ago, it said that the unlock period has expired or something and it the network tag said "network locked". T-mobile lets you temporarily unlock your phone twice a month. So I've unlocked it for another month but won't be able to do it again. Please helpp!!

I will find these addresses and post them here in the next few days.
In the meantime go to Huawei site send mail to the address there then go to all the other localized ones and do the same. ex. huawei.co.uk huawei.ca etc. (these examples aren't correct but that's the idea ... can't exactly remember right now)
Tell them you are developing apps or something and need access. Maybe if we all do this a lot something will happen? Let us know what they say to you.

Dear Lloyd,
Thank you for contacting Huawei Support UK.
In response to your enquiry, we would like to inform you that the unlock code application service has ended, as of July 25th 2018, to ensure user experience and safety. Huawei used to provide users with corresponding unlock codes to meet personalized requirements due to the usage of different ROMs, which was an extra service.
However, due to possible problems caused by unlocking your device (such as system built-in function failure, device freezing, and power consumption increase) we will no longer provide the code.
We are sincerely sorry for any possible inconvenience and we wish you a nice day!
Best regards,
Sandra
Huawei Support - Customer Care UK

Now it's possible to get the bootloader unlock code.
But cost is around 30 euro

That site looks like it was made by a couple of guys who just emailed people about a massive amount of cash that the king of Wakanda has decided to give them they just need to send their passport number and bank details over
Looks dodge but hey if it works then fair play to you.
What info did they require, if it's an IMEI then that's not great.
Should just be serial iirc.

I have unlocked bootloader on first go for 2-3 devices. And I can help you only by sugeesting you some steps before you unlock bootloader next time. I dont know anything about bypassing that time limit. I guess you have to wait now unless someone comes up with some method. I suggest you watching a video about unlocking bootloader of Technobuzz/KTNtech etc.

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

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.

No idea mate, but if he wants to share some of them there drugs I'll clear my schedule..
Did you call them?? Are you UK based??
They said they'd call me back but nothing.
Sorry that you've got the same thing but I'm kind of glad I'm not the only one..
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 haven't rebranded at all.
I wrote to Huawei customer service:
I got an email on 12/04/2018 from [email protected] from 'Sandra'
Does that help?

So to confirm you obtained a bootloader unlock code via email?
If so then that's good. That's a definite communication and I can obtain that from them for myself.

So I think there was meant to be a self service page
It never worked for me so I emailed them and gave them the above info. They wrote back with the code in an email, yes

Ah I see, the self service page worked for me first time.
Either way it's still a correspondence so I'm still obliged to have that information..
Cheers.

Date 12th April 2018 , for the correspondence. That was the time they closed giving bootloader codes out.?

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?

I don't think those avenues work anymore.
