Hi guys, i got a Nexus 6, bought to a friend, but i did a factory reset and now is asking me for the last account used in the device, i ask to my friend and dont know (the phone its a gift from his father). Android 5.1 and there is no way to know wich account were used in the device.
Please someone can help, the bootloader is locked, cant unlock because "android debbuging" is off. Can i flash a special stock images or something?? or what can i do to pass this vrification?
thanks.
@fernando2610
You have to enter the username and password for the last person who used the device. There is no way around this. If you can't get that information, then this device is useless.
If bootloader is locked you're Sol!

As @cam30era said, there is no way around this security feature. Without the password from the previous user, the device is useless. Sorry.
Thanks to all you. Maybe un future someone invent something to resolve this. Fuc..ng locked bootloader.

No offense to you but let's hope not. It is a theft deterrent
have him ask his father. his father would know his own username and password. if his farher doesnt know, then id say that there's something fishy going on with that phone..
Thanks again. I ll ask his father, maybe he can talk with Google to solve this.

I still don't see the problem. On every PC ' father ' can login to his google account. And when he has forgotten his password there is a password recovery protocol.

If the phone belonged to the father, there is no problem
Has he changed his password lately? I think you have to wait awhile correct me if I'm.wrong
if he resets his password for you because he doesnt know it you will have to wait 72 hours i believe before you can even log into that phone.

I understood from the OP that the father didn't even remember his password. So he won't be able to reset it. Catch 22.

Even if you have it unlocked, encrypted device wont let you log in. Its better than iCloud ^^

Not sure on that. Though if you have an unlocked bootloader, the device protection is useless anyway as you can just flash it back to stock and if you're rooted / modified, locking the bootloader is quite a dangerous thing to do (if you get in a bootloop and cannot get into custom recovery, with a locked bootloader, you're screwed).
I get asked a lot how I rooted my Huawei Honor Note 8 so I thought I'd do a basic how to from memory on how I did it. It's relatively easy to do.
You'll need your phone's bootloader unlocked.
The files from Huawei's forums http://club.huawei.com/thread-10828573-1-1.html or https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwyaxIga7s0qc0ZKRGtsdndwV3M/view?usp=sharing
The app is in chinese but has some english on the buttons.
To unlock bootloader:
Got bootloader unlock code with the app on the playstore "DC Huawei Bootloader Codes" (took about 8 hours to get)
Enable USB debugging on the phone & connect it to the computer.
Unlock the bootloader with the program downloaded. Use the first button on the first tab labeled bootloader. Put in unlock code in the pop up box & click ok.
To root:
Enable USB debugging on the phone & connect it to the computer.
Flash the recovery_twrp.img file with the program downloaded. Use the 2nd button on the first tab labeled recovery.
To change twrp into english, click on the 3rd down 2nd row button & then click on the globe button. The globe is really hard to hit! Keep trying till you get it Then select English.
Install SuperSU with TWRP
Should now be rooted!
Question. Is there anything I should do like backup my bootloader or something before starting this process?
benmeroff said:
Unlocking your bootloader will wipe the device; factory reset for sure, and I believe it also erases your internal storage (don't quote me on that though, not sure for this phone), but your OS will remain whatever stock version you had installed until you flash something else.

I did not backup anything.
Ok thanks.. I appreciate it
I have a question, or making a root and unlock the bootloader is associated with a full reset your data and settings that can be done root without losing data?
Nope

Hi guys
I unlocked my note 8 successfully . In startup screen show your devives is unlocked and can not be trusted every time i restar the phone is it normal?
Second thing i flashed twrp by clicking on recovery button then after restarted i clicked on 3rd button of second row to change to english but it didnt say click on english
How to enter twrp recovey i tried pressing power button and volume up nothing happened
Plz help
Yuppers.. not trusted cuz ya unlocked it.
Should be volume up & power. You can also do it with the app. The 2nd tab... recovery. Will boot it into recovery too.
You have to click the globe button on the far right to get to the language. It's a ***** to hit! BTW... TWRP has reverted back to chinese a few time now for some reason on mine. It's kind of annoying considering how hard it is to hit that one button.
Questions about the root process
1) why do you need the unlock code?
2) Where can I find SuperSU for honor note 8? Can someone please provide a link?
3) Has anyone succeeded rooting?
Thanks in advance for the answers.
Please Help!
Everything was find, I unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP, when I flashed SuperSU it bootloops!
Can someone please help.....
I'm not sure why it would be boot looping. I'd flash it again. Might even try a factory reset before flashing too. You're the first I've heard of with that problem. Make sure you're on version 22.

I have a rooted device too.
Thanks for your answers!:good::fingers-crossed:
Glad to hear it worked out!
i downloaded "DC Huawei Bootloader Codes" then i entered my Note 8 IMEI and waited for 8 hrs and got an email telling me it is failed and i tries the other IMEI "since it's dual sim card phone" but no luck, same message.
Please help
The Huawei ID used to apply for the unlock code has not been used on the device for more than 14 days. Huawei site error
DC Huawei Bootloader Codes not working
please help
Hi,
I read of the possibility of the root of honor note 8 through oneclickroot, kingroot, etc.
It must first be unlocked bootloader or the software will to unlock?
For unlocking the bootloader you must use to force pay program dc-unlocker?
Thank you

in the app, there is another way to get it. choose not by imei.
write the developer of the app you did not get the code and you want a refund, and pay for the second method. this is how i did it.

Great! Many thanks for your quick reply! I contacted dc-unlocker support and thats what they replied..
Hello, this codes is from factory DB. Sorry, but there not all phones present in this db.
This happens frequently if phone has MEID .
But you can read code by cable, we support almost all huawei.
If reading by cable not acceptable we can do refund.
Im waiting for their next answers at my qustions, what exactly have i do..
I have to download their soft probably and make everything there..
I had no time to check their forum yet, im sure there will be instructions..
EDIT:
Oki so i used DC-unlocker software, received these codes and unlocked Bootloader successfully!
I have rooted both phones already!
I had an issues with ADB drivers on Win10 and on Win7 as well, could not find my devices in devices manager but i have solved it!
TWRP 3.02 with preinstalled SuperSU works fine on B027.. In one of my phones i had B029 so i had to downgrade to B027..
On B029 doesnt work flash command in cmd.. Stuck on "waiting for device"..
Hey guys,
last weekend my Huawai P9 battery got empty over the night and on the next morning after charging i noticed that the phone ask me for a password. Before i just used my finger sensor to get back into it but as you know after a complete restart it ask for the set password.
The problem is that i do not remember it in any way and right now i am @ 1 hour waiting time between the attempts.
I really don't want to delete and reset the phone and loose all my data. So i hope someone can help me to solve that problem to get back access to my phone without loosing all data.
Phone data:
Name: Huawai P9
Model: EVA-L09
Latest official available Android update installed.
No Root, No Modification
What i have tried so far:
1. Google Android Manager
I logged into my google account and tried to reset the password but google tells me it cant replace the password because its already active. So looks like that reset way only works for pin and gesture phones but not for ones that already have an active password.
2. dr.Phone
I have downloaded dr.phone toolkit for android and tried the unlock locked screen option but it tells me that the phone is not supported.
3. ADB / Fastboot
I installed ADB and fastboot on my system and tried to connect the phone to delete the password.key file. ADB is running on my windows but it does not get any connection to the phone because the phone has no developer option enabled and i am not able to enable it because it cant access it.
Fastboot does detect my phone but yea i cant delete a file with it right?
Greetings,
Chris
I would pay for a working solution so please help me to find a solution.

-I could only imagine that you are able to unlock your bootloader with DC Phoenix (normal bootloader unlock would cause data loss and u would need DC Phoenix for the oem lock)
-Maybe u are able to flash TWRP recovery with DC Phoenix and backup your files from there but i dont know if TWRP works without an unlocked bootloader.
-All in all DC Phoenix is a risky tool.

Stop stop stop.....
Is your phone under warranty? If it is, dont touch the bootloader or flash anything. Send it back to Huawei to fix it.
If its no longer under warranty, is it requesting a password to unlock your phone or is it the password for decrypt storage? And last question, do you use the finger print scanner to unlock your phone?
only solution with bootloader locked is the wipe data/factory reset inside erecovery
Hello all,
I am sort of new to this, so please excuse me if this is an 'easy' question, but I am sort of freaked out.
I bought the Mi8 with the bootloader already unlocked and a chinese ROM.
Today I wanted to install the xiamo.eu Rom via twrp, however I faced some problems during this (did not boot properly into TWRP).
At one point I tried to use XiaoMiFlash to put a stable version of the ROM on it, however, apparently the standard setting in the program is to lock the phone again.
When I am booting normal now I only get into Mi-Recovery 3.0 since he apparently can not install this MIUI version on this device (that's the error message I am getting).
So I can not boot this ROM, but also have no open bootloader. I can go into Fastboot, but without unlocked bootloader it does not help me right?
Since the seller already unlocked the bootloader, I can not unlock it again as far as I understand. Is there any help for me or is my phone now just a brick?
Thanks for the help
"At one point I tried to use XiaoMiFlash to put a stable version of the ROM on it, however, apparently the standard setting in the program is to lock the phone again"
When u flash ur phone with mitools
What u choice ? "Clean all or Clean all & Lock" ?

U phone is Lock and u need go to contact Xiaomi CS to help u out..
sorry if im wrong..

I did not see that you have to select something, but I realized in hindsight that 'Clean all & Lock' was selected by default. Thus my bootloader is locked.
You think Xiaomi CS does help? I have read that they have to grant you authorization, but I am not sure if they actually do it.
The other method would be the Testpoint method, there are some services there to remotely do it..
Not sure what to do yet!
But thanks for help

That happened to me too, some months ago. Xiaomi CS will do noting at all. In my case I returned the phone back to the seller asking for the original global version I paid for, but it was a lengthy procedure. If I am not wrong a guy in 4PDA can unlock your phone. Just search the forum.

I bought my phone 3-4 months ago, don't think it will work anymore.
The 4PDA forum is fully in russian, so I don't think I will be able to locate him. If you have more info about it, let me know.
Update: Fixed with test point method and flashing CN rom (requires authenticated account for that - bought the russian service for that!). A pity Xiaomi does not give out authenticated accounts that easy (or allow easier unblocking of device).
Anyway, happy that it works now again, but unfortunately stuck with chinese rom (I think).
Hi guys!
I have the redmi k20 pro premium china rom, but its currently stuck in a bootloop so I cant get past the booting-up screen nor can i use the fastboot feature.
However, I still really want to get my photos from the phone, I don't have any cloud services connected.
I was wondering if there was any way to retrieve the photos since to get out of a bootloop I need to factory reset which will delete the memory.
Im willing to tear apart the phone however I doubt that will do anything?
Thanks in advance!!
(I wrote this question in the normal thread but found out there's a k20 specific one.)

Hey
Depending on what you did if your bootloader is unlocked you can use Mi Flash Tool and flash the Fastboot ROM if you can get to there. Just make sure to select Save user data. If you can't get into Fastboot Mode it is possible to get the Phone working anyway on another way but everything will be deleted.

When you turn on your phone, is there a lock sign? If yes it's unlocked and if no I don't know what to do because unlocking bootloader needs erasing everything. Maybe you can go to a repair shop which gives you somehow the photos back.

To unlock the Bootloader, the owner has to do procedures...
install tools, register account on the Xiaomi side, request unlocking, wait 7 days...
If you bought the phone from Xiaomi (not a second hand or from a reseller) and you are not familiar with all the above, then your BL is for sure locked
In Fastboot, run the command and it will tell you if the BL is locked or not:
fastboot oem device-info

Yes, but like I said it'll delete everything and the phone needs to be working to associate a Xiaomi Account via Mobile Data.

Of course it will delete
But I said, if you IN THE PAST did not unlock Bootloader and did not buy it from a previous owner or reseller who did unlock, then the Bootloader is for sure locked since Xiaomi sells the phones with locked Bootloaders
Besides, if you cannot boot to the System, you cannot initiate now the procedure to unlock the Bootloader

Yes. I guess his photos are gone. Anyway I'd recommend for any rooted phone (I know his isn't) to use the Unlimited Google Photos Magisk Module.

Photos can be also automatically stored to Mi Account
But most simply, from time to time, connect the phone to PC by USB cable and copy /DCIM/Camera folder to the PC
No need for unlocking Bootloader, no need for cloud accounts, etc

Mi Cloud has 15 GB and Magisk Mod gives you unlimited. That's why I mentioned it. But without doing anything like that, you're right.
So theres no way to retrieve it if the boot loader is locked?
