Hello
I would like to use google pay, but the application informs about phone modification and can not be used.
The phone has unlocked the bootloader, I do not have root. I am on the CLT-L29C432B131 using the HuRUpdater method.
In google play information - no certificate. Is this a problem and how to avoid it?
Same issue here
Unlocked bootloader and now Google Pay isn't working
Unlocking the bootloader breaks safety net. Relock it & you should be ok.

Used to root etc on old phones, taken a long break from it all but I have sent a request to Huawei to get my unlock key for my P10 VTR-L09C440, however I have a few questions I hope can be answered.
1. Can I re-lock my bootloader after unlocking, and if so does it say anything like "bootloader relocked" or anything like that or is it completely back as it was?
2. Can I use restricted apps (I know I couldn't use Barclays and I think one of my betting apps and Google Pay were restricted), has this changed now or can Magisk etc actually hide BL unlock / root / whatever it is it doesn't like?
I would like to know that too

1. No, when you manually relock, the bootloader status is "RELOCKED". To lock the bootloader you need to use HWOTA8, FunkyHuawei or FirmwareFinder and update to the newest version. Both will cause factory reset.
2. When you rooted with Magisk most apps with Root detection will work, when you enable "Magisk Hide". I use it on my bank secure tan app and Mario Run without any problems. Some friend are using Magisk Hide with other banking apps without any problems, too.
I haven't rooted and unlocked myself but I read about an important part of the process.
First of all you have to enable oem security in developer options, otherwise you risk the FRP lock.

If I'm wrong, someone please correct me.

OK great, thanks for the info. I have actually finally just heard back from Huawei so code should be imminent. Unfortunately my battery as stock seems to be awful so I need to try something to make it last a day at least.
Does Magisk hide make Android Pay work too?
I think I'm right in thinking that banking apps and the like often check bootloader status rather than just root. I assume Magisk doesn't hide this?
If I go back to stock and relock bootloader, will the apps also still register that the bootloader has been unlocked and still not work?
TIA

Can someone confirm this please? Does anybody use Android Pay and Barclays confirm Magisk makes it still work with Bootloader unlocked?
Hey, for a reasons I needed to do ota update (reflashed stock recovery[extracted from matching update] before doing so), now when im trying to reinstall TWRP i've noticed that my bootloader re-locked on its own.
Was this supposed to happen? iirc people keep telling you that you can't relock bootloader without it's backup from locked state.
It's quite annoying that it happen since I did pay for unlock via DC unlocker and now huawei stopped distributing unlock codes so I'll probably need to pay DC again.
Cheers!
edit: DC unlocker did not even allow me to Unlock bootloader, only thing i saw was Lock bootloader, but there was option to "Read bootloader code" (no credits needed) and I managed to unlock bootloader again using fastboot and this code

This is a flag in OTA update, it may be present or not (now seems to be always enforced, new Huawei policy) that OTA locks Bootloader
You cannot disable this flag in OTA package
Bootloader is not relocked but really locked (better for those who go to service under warranty)
Bootloader code is unique for your device.
No matter did you obtain it from Huawei or DC, you have TO KEEP it, you don't need to pay, read or ask again, just use the same bootloader code for the same phone for the lifetime of your phone

thanks for the answer, didnt know about flag nor that bootloader unlock code can be used multiple times(and that its paired with HW)
nevertheless, as I said in my edit I managed to get my unlock code for free with dc unlocker

that's what I suspect, but sadly can't confirm or deny. I think I didn't even see the code itself when I used it for the first time due to the fact that unlock process was automatized within DC unlocker's client app, so all I had to do was to prepare the phone and press Unlock Bootloader within the client

I used DC client once (4 Euros), I obtained the code (saved it for future) and used in Fastboot to unlock Bootloader just like previously for the other Huawei phone whose code I obtained for free from Huawei (before they closed this service)
I have an unlocked SM-N9600. Is there a one step method (like an app you install, and it roots the phone without a computer) available?
No there isnt since rooting requires bootloader unlock and unlocking the bootloader will permanently disable Knox forever which means Samsung pass, Samsung pay and secret folder will be disabled since they require working Knox chip to function and even encryption might be disabled aswell
I want to root my device and in order to do that, I need to unlock the bootloader. However, when I try to unlock the bootloader using Xiaomi's unlock tool (https://en.miui.com/unlock/) it says that the fingerprint recognition will be disabled. Will there be any way to re-enable this once I've rooted the device?
I unlocked the bootloader with adb/cmd and fingerprint works normal. No problems so far.
"Xiaomi unlock tool" is not for Android One devices

No, that's not true. It probably applies to other Xiaomi devices, but this line of devices is special. These come with Android One, which runs Google's pure OS rather than regular Xiaomi devices that run MIUI.
I'm going to unlock and root (hopefully) mine. You shouldn't face any problems with the fingerprint.
I have a p10 vtr-l09 8.0.0.327(c654) security patch nov 5 2018. I live in Canada and am getting sick of these Amber alerts waking me up at all hours of the night. (In Canada all alerts are sent as presidential) So I want to root and remove the cell broadcast apk. I have not done anything with this phone as of yet. I have rooted all my other phones to date. I got my bootloader unlock code from huawei before they stopped giving them out. My questions are as follows. 1. with my security patch level at nov 5 2018 will i have any issues unlocking my bootloader. I saw people having issues with unlocking the bootloader and using dc unlocker to get the code. I assume because i already have the code i should be fine? 2. After unlocking and installing twrp is magisk the best or only method of root? 3. After installing magisk removing the desired apk , is removing root by magisk easly done? . 4. Lastly Do most leave their bootloaders unlocked? I have with my sony phones in the past, just wondering. Thank you
You don't have to unlock bootloader to uninstall app. Only root will do. Do something like kingroot, and then uninstall unwanted content trough app. Of course be wise and think before what do you wipe. Some core and google apps are inportant for funcionality.
Is it Posible to Downgrade The Huawei P10Lite anyway to Root it and unlock bootloader than?
I need to install Custom Rom on P10Lite the Stock Firmwire is Sh**!!

Does kingroot modify the system partition? Reason being is I don't want to have Google's safety check flag it so I can't use specific apps. That's why I was considering unlocking the bootloader flashing a custom recovery and flashing magisk. I guess what I'm looking to do is either a hidable root, or a root and remove APK , then unroot. Banking aps are my concern, I don't want to root then not be able to use them. I used root cloak with xposed to hide it before. Not sure if it's still an option

Does Kingroot work with Oreo and unlocked bootloader? Is it how you got it working on your phone?
