Open the dialer and press this *#*#7378423#*#* to open the service menu
then go to service info, then configuration
Then if under rooting status it is written bootloader unlocked : yes , that means your bootloader is unlocked
thanks but it only says that it is allowed to unlock the bootloader. but i want to see that i have sucsessfully unlocked my bootloader.

if it says it is allowed to unlock bootloader that means it has not been unlocked you still have to unlock it

The answer is in your post. Your bootloader is unlocked, you never relocked it. Put your phone in fastboot and you will see a violet led...
Yeah it seems your bootloader is still unlocked.
No my phone bootloader not unlocked now, and when l connect my phone in FASTBOOT mode the flash is blue
And also l cannot install cm12.1 because bootloader is not unlocked
Sorry, my English is not good

can i flash latest stable rom via fastboot and set relock ? I read a lot about bricked devices during locking again
If you're device it's a china version china rom with locked bootloader if it's a global version device global rom with locked bootloader.
China version->China rom locked bootloader ok!
Global version->Global rom locked bootloader ok! /Unlocked bootloader=ok!
China version->Global rom locked bootloader =brick! / Unlocked bootloader=ok!
Global version->China rom locked bootloader=brick!

can uh tell how to unlock bootloader MI 8 M1803e1a model..????
Any work-around?
Was purchased with WW ROM.
Switching between CN/ WW not an issue (via flashing RAW).
Also can upgrade/ downgrade within the CN or WW firmwares. Copying an older FW .zip into Internal Storage but renaming it to a newer FW name (same naming format) allows 'system update' to downgrade CN to CN/ WW to WW (may need a re-start to detect the FW .zip file).
OEM unlocking option is completely missing under Developer Options.
I assume OEM unlocking option is still there (even if greyed out) in Global variant ROG 3??
No luck unlocking Bootloader (and therefore getting Root access) via:
- ASUS Unlock tool --> App looks to work fine but restarts system with BL untouched/ remains unlocked.
- Tool_All_in_One by mauronofrio --> ROG 3 not listed in supported device list; device seems to be recognised by this tool; unlock BL attempt results in failure/ proprietary lock message.
- fastboot oem asus-lock (or asus-unlock ?) --> fails as not authorised/ unlock token missing.
- Flashing RAW 'open ROM' (inside EDL unbrick tool folder) --> allows OEM unlocking but cannot switch to CN/ WW ROM; nor allows BL unlock as per above methods. Needed to flash RAW CN/ WW to get back to normal FW.
Is it possible to get modified WW FW or RAW with patched Boot.img injected in?
Or any other work-around for unlocking BL or Root? (besides returning the device!!)
=================================================================
UPDATE
Tencent (CN) ROG 3 with WW ROM pre-loaded @ point of purchase as new --> definitely able to unlock Bootloader and Root the phone.
I managed to do it after flashing the latest CN .zip version (at the time = 0.78). Other people have done it after flashing latest WW .zip ROM.
Used the official ASUS unlock tool to unlock Bootloader (may take several repeat attempts). I then flashed (from CN) to latest WW .zip (no need if already on WW).
There will be no "OEM unlocking" option under developer options (no need).

Can you OEM Unlock and boot loader unlock with flashin by EDL? Or I don’t understand very well

There's a RAW file in EDL folder - flashing this results in an 'open ROM' (looks like a pre-release/ developer testing ROM)
--> booting into this ROM gives option of OEM unlock which can be toggled to on (as well as USB debugging)
--> however still cannot Bootloader unlock using the methods I listed above.
The only solution is to unlock using third parties , there is a guy who unlock for 50 usd a greedy chineese , he is legit but he is a jerk ,my friend unlocked 3 devices using him .
Pm : for his telegram but you have to negociate for the price .
yes, you guys, here use Ark with this 100% unlocked, I unlocked my tencent strix, I advise you to try to download from the off site just for strix tencent !!! further link here >>>>>https://www.asus.com/Phone/ROG-Phone-3-Strix-Edition/HelpDesk_Download/

If unofficial way exists to unlock Bootloader (on Tencent variant that came with WW), I'd rather await XDA help.
Thanks for letting me know anyways.

What's Ark?
I've already tried this tool - did not unlock BL for tencent variant with WW (it was non-strix though).

Your Tencent is Strix or non-Strix?
Did it already have "OEM unlocking" toggle option under Developer Options?

It's the non-strix and it did not even have the oem unlocking toggle on, oddly enough it still doesn't.

That's interesting - I thought my OEM was missing all along because of Tencent with WW (therefore Bootloader relocked).
Which version of WW firmware were you on when you BL unlocked?
Did you use the link above for the (Strix) Asus unlock tool? Do you get a "PIN password missing" pop-up message when you press the unlock icon using this tool?
How did you know BL unlock was successful? Did you confirm that BL is unlocked?

I'm on the latest firmware 9/30 which I got from here https://www.asus.com/Phone/ROG-Phone-3/HelpDesk_BIOS/ and I used the tool provided from Gayrat1999. I get the warning that the bootloader is unlocked when restarting the phone and I confirmed with the All in One tool from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/as...sus-rog-phone-3-zs661ks-files-unlock-t4154141 (I had to delect ROG Phone 2)

I think the issue was the FW(?) as needed the latest one (or Asus have managed to sort the issue out @ their end) --> I have just now managed to finally (yes!) unlock my bootloader.
After several attempts, I managed to do it on latest CN (.78) with the CN Asus unlock tool.
(Looking at Asus unlock tool names/ versions on CN/ Global websites including the Strix version - They all seem to be the same ones).
The BL unlock sticks when I flash back to WW (latest @ .78).
Will be rooting now!
Looks like Tencent variant (with pre-flashed WW at point of purchase) is BL unlockable & Root-able indeed!!
Confirmed.

Happy rooting/ modding.
Hoping for Viper4Arise module to utilise potential of the excellent stereo speakers.
Hi, I also have the tencent version with latest ww firmware. I was also able to use the asus unlocker to unlock my bootloader. I've been out of the android rooting scene for a while though and was wondering if I could have some help with root. What root method did you use? I used Magisk and was able to create a modified boot img, but when I flashed it (and it confirmed the flash was successful, this was after a failed attempt before using asus unlocker where it said device was still locked) but checking with root checker, the device still seems to be unrooted. Did I miss a step, or should I use a different method altogether? Thanks.
Nevermind I figured it out. Flashed in TWRP, used that to install magisk zip, then installed magisk manager, done. Disregard.

@elmor0 i'm on .100 firmware tencent... can i flash a RAW WW .78 firmware to convert into global at the same time downgrade?
if yes, i'll just have to change .78 to .101 right?
or do i have to downgrade CN .100 to CN .78 by changing the .78 to .101 and put it on internal storage.then flash WW .78 to convert my device to global?

Hy there,I can only tell you how to unlock bootloader you can try going to settings about phone buld number press it 7 times and you will be a developer then go to developer settings and open bootloader if it doesn't work try using fast boot method by writing this command fastboot oem unlock
Then it will unlock bootloader
