does anyone know how to unlock bootloader on huawei phone? i know they stop doing that back in 2018. just wondering if there's still a way.
Unfortunately, Huawei stopped giving bootloader unlock codes on 5/25/2018
Without said code, it is not possible to unlock the bootloader, unfortunately.
This is the reason Huawei gave for the change:
In order to deliver the best user experience and prevent users from experiencing possible issues that could arise from ROM flashing, including system failure, stuttering, worsened battery performance, and risk of data being compromised, Huawei will cease providing bootloader unlock codes for devices launched after May 25, 2018. For devices launched prior to the aforementioned date, the termination of the bootloader code application service will come into effect 60 days after today’s announcement. Moving forward, Huawei remains committed to providing quality services and experiences to its customers. Thank you for your continued support.

Unlocking Agreement
Thank you for your support for Huawei Device’s products. Huawei Device has granted bootloader unlocking permission for its latest mobile phones’ and tablets’ official firmware. Unlocking the bootloader enables you to burn third-party firmware to your device.
However, unlocking the bootloader carries the following risks:
1.Huawei has optimized its products’ hardware and software, but after you unlock the bootloader, Huawei cannot guarantee the best product performance or the normal operation of all functions.
2.Most third-party firmware has not been adequately tested and has poor compatibility with Huawei devices, which will affect your device’s stability or even cause damage to your device’s hardware. For example, the power consumption may become so excessive that your device’s standby time and battery life are reduced, or the RF performance of your device may degrade, which will lead to network search failure or poor call quality. Even worse, your device may fail to start and cannot be repaired. In other words, your device may no longer be usable.
3.The third-party firmware may be vulnerable to malicious software attacks, as a result of which your device’s security cannot be assured. For example, Your personal data such as contacts, messages, and locations may be disclosed. Malicious software may control your device to send messages to subscribe to paid services or make calls in the background, incurring charges secretly. Malicious software may even monitor your device.
4.Some functions will no longer work after you unlock the bootloader. For example, the Digital Right Management (DRM) security password and digital contents you have purchased cannot be used any more. Software upgrade using Firmware Over-The-Air (FOTA) or a microSD card may fail or your device may not function properly after the upgrade.
Unlocking the bootloader will cause unexpected negative impacts on your device, including but are not limited to those listed above. You are at your own risk if the device malfunctions and cannot be recovered. For software and hardware failures, Huawei repair centers can provide and charge for maintenance services.
[ Warnings and precautions ]
1. As determined by your service provider, custom devices may not support bootloader unlocking. If so, contact your service provider to unlock your device’s bootloader.
2.Unlocking the bootloader restores your device to its factory settings and all of your personal data will be erased. Back up your data before unlocking the bootloader.
Before you unlock the bootloader, ensure that you are fully aware of all the risks and that you master the required skills.

Hello xda's!
I unlocked the bootloader on my Sony Xperia z3+. It worked just fine, but after a sertain time (I think it was after I rebooted the phone first time after unlocking) it now says under "Service info->Configuration" the following:
Rooting status: Unknown
HW Config rev.: Unknown
Remote Lock State: Not Lockable
Security Configuration: Test
When I check status either using "Emma" (Sony's own flashtool) or Flashtool, they both indicate that the phones bootloader is locked. I tried running the same prosedure using the Sony Android SDK to unlock it "again", but the command return a fault indicating it has already been run succesfully once and of course can't do it again. I have tested the "Remote Lock State", and it works (unlike what the Service info. reports). I can't seem to find anyone that have similar problem. Suggestions for a solution?
How did you unlock your Z3+ bootloader in the 1st place? The official site (http://developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/unlock-yourboot-loader/) does not even list the Z3+ as one of the supported devices for unlocking.
Found partly answers to my questions.
Before I unlocked the bootloader I forgot to deactivate the "My Xperia" (Xperia Theft Protection = MXTP). It is all explained at "developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader : After unlocking your device, you should not enable My Xperia (found in the settings menu under security on some devices running Android 5.0) as this might cause the device to malfunction". As mentioned, "My Xperia" was already active before I unlocked the bootloader. It was probably not the wisest thing of me not reading the instructions thoroughly anough. But at the same time can a serious company offer unlocking the bootloader and at the same time having one of their own proprietary programs causing the phone to malfunction? Then I think they should not offer that kind of service at all.
I was wrong when I said that I was able to remotely lock the phone in that satus. If u remove your google account on the phone under "accounts", you can just restart the phone after locked state shows up and the phone will work normaly. But, you will not be able to remove/deactivate the "My Experia" and the bootloader seems to be in a locked state (even if Flashtool reports it as unlocked in flashmode).

...the Z3+ is just not yet officially suported. If u trough the " developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader " site, choose for example the Z3 together with the IMEI code and u will be provided with a bootloader code.

Hello Rookie!
Sorry, no change in status. I guess we have 2 wait for the more experinced ones 2 come up with a solution, if there ever will be. Another downside to this is that the DRM keys are also lost. You will notice that on the cameras problem 2 autofocus, especially on close up objects. Apart from that, the phone is working just fine. "MyXperia" is not someting I will miss, apart from being that tiny safety.
you are lucky the device is still working
@T.ghouas
From what I read here (maybe a bit sensational journalism) and these guys know what they are writing about:
http://fxpblog.co/2015/07/03/dont-destroy-your-unlocked-device.html
They have bricked their devices beyon soft repair so they need to send them in.

Hello DHGE!
Thx for the info. I'm not sure how they managed to brick their devices the way they did? Cause it seemed to me they did pretty much the same mistakes I did. My phone as resaulted more in the way that the MXTP is not working, lost DRM keys and an uknown status of the bootloader. Phone is working just fine, apart from that.

It's amazing that Sony is embracing the open devices meme but does such a bone-headed thing as to allow one of their own apps to permanently lock down a device if inadvertently activated. These Xperia's have really nice hardware design but they're a real challenge on the software side of things.
The first thing I did after rooting my device was to delete the MyXperia app from the phone thanks to the public reports from those unfortunate enough to have fallen victim to Sony's apparent obsession with locking down phones. Having owned only Samsung devices for the last 4 years or so, I complained bitterly about Knox. However, they're neophytes when stacked up against Sony's shenanigans.
I wish these manufacturers would get it. I don't give a sh1t about their software. I just want a device with cool design and decent hardware. I'll put my own software on it thank you very much. And the degree to which they lock it down is inversely proportional to the phones desirability to me as a customer.
Ha, rant over. Sorry for running off on a tangent.

The same problem does not yet have a solution?
Hello Seriousstas!
Most likely it will never be solved, according to Sonys respond to my question on this matter. You can send it in for repair, which means replacing the motherboard. That will be approx half/60% of the price of a new phone. Don't want to sound to negative, but for me there is no more Sony on the basis of:
1. Unlocking boot loader vs MXTP prob.
2. Unlocking boot loader and loss of DRM keys and the effect that has, especially on the camera.
3. Z3+ has the same rear glass probl. has the Z3, it breakes easily. This has happened to boths phones (Z3+) where I work, incl. my own. 1000 of ppl reported this on the Z3. Sony would not admit that this was a serious production error, which ended up in ppl having to pay for the repair them self. Of all the ppl I have talked to, that encounterd that problem say they will never buy Sony again.
4. There are always some annoying prod. errors with their phones, which at least I always think is either that they don't care about or that they are not checking the product thoroughly before it is released.
(5). Bloatware.
Sony phones usually come have really nice feauters, like good camera, IP67 certificated and nice design. But, as mentioned there are to many repeating draw backs. Sony has been asked a few times why their phone sale does not "take off" and that they are considering stopping the phone prod. I think a good deal of it comes from to many dissatisified customers that easly find comfort in other brands, and stay with them. Its hard to clear a bad reputation. Yes, I think they should stop selling phones.
I'm sorry for the offload here, and its questionable if some of my views belongs to this tread. I just say this so that you and others in same position should not have to high hopes solving the "main issue", cause there will be no help from Sony.

This is the phone: https://shop.simplemobile.com/shop/en/simplemobile/phones/sm-moto-e5
1. Is there a way to root it?
2. Where can I find the stock firmware for it?
I can not get anything on the internet about this model
I have done quite a bit of searching online and prodding at this phone in various ways and have found no way to root it unlock it or even get third party manual camera controls.
It appears to be a Tracphone remarketed E5 with a lower resolution camera and a few other locked features (mostly software things). I can only picture that a lot of our problems rooting this phone and getting support (specifically in English) have to do with the fact that "technically" the US isn't even supposed to have an E5, but the E5 play and plus. Which is why we have a Nora Baseband, 8MP camera, Android 8.1, etc. All the features (That may produce or interact with radio emissions) are mismatched to match other "authorized devices".
There is a thread here that lists all the Nora devices as Plus models but "1920" from the same master list is a play model. This model is also listed only with non-contract carriers (appears to be mostly CDMA) woth remarlably little information on it and has a small customer base since most just get the plus.
Even Motorola won't touch it with unlock codes and such like they (supposedly) will the plus model. So I don't think this specific model will get much attention anytine soon, or possibly ever. But again, this is all "from my understanding". So I could definitely be completely wrong. There are guys here who know substantially more than I do on the matter.
This of course isn't to say I havn't enjoyed the only Snapdragon 400 series phone not to be completely piled with non-removable handcuffing UI clutter.
Same question about NETWORK UNLOCK.
So, first to correct myself. This model is now being used for other non-contract carriers, too.
Second, referring to the carrier unlock. That depends on exactly who your carrier is. Some are known for unlocking the day you pay for it in full, others are known to never unlock them even when you meet the requirements by delaying giving codes, rejecting authorization, or removing the ability to submit the code in the phone's firmware. However, most carriers fall in the middle and usually require some number of months of operation of the device on their network and it be paid in full etc. etc.
So, check with your carrier and if they won't unlock it you'll have to meet the requirements or wait for someone to come up with new methods to modify the partitions on the device and/or find a way to unlock the bootloader. Some people (once boot unlocked) have had success with flashing different carrier firmware to gain GSM sim unlock and use with other networks. I did it with an old Samsung ON5 once but our devices don't have near the unlock, root, and rom support lol.
Good Luck though! I hope you figure it out if I don't.
Hello,
I negotiated a Galaxy Note 8 (SM-N950F/DS) through a site of collective purchases in Brazil, with invoice and all the accessories.
I did all the tests in the device and I decided to buy it, because it seemed reliable.
The device already had the factory settings, but with Android 7.1.1.
I activated automatic update in order to upgrade the android to 8.0.
I received the update and installed it. When restarting the phone, I started the settings normally, I was able to configure the Samsung Account, but when I was starting the configuration of the Google account my phone blocked.
After trying several unlock passwords, I made contact with SAMSUNG which instructed me to send the device for local service.
When I arrived at the service it was verified that my device had "transport block" and who is responsible for unlocking the device is the store in which the device was purchased.
I went to the store that was described in the purchase invoice and there informed me that the store does not perform any kind of unlock or block, so I could not solve the problem.
After several discussions with Samsung and the store, it was verified that my invoice was exchanged and that it was possibly not true.
It was from there that I realized that I was deceived by the seller of the device, because when I try to contact him, my calls do not complete and he blocked me in the social networks.
The only information I have about him is his name and the phone number that should have already been discarded.
Anyway, I realized that I would have to try on my own. Because of this, I am doing this post. I apologize for the long text above before passing the technical information, I had to explain what happened, because I do not want to pass as a thief.
After doing several research I found that the lock was being triggered by RLC.apk which is located at "/system/priv-app/Rlc/Rlc.apk" in stock firmwares.
I found an instruction that guided to freeze the performance of this app with application Ice box v3.1.9.1.
I tried the instruction, but it did not work on devices with Binary 4 (which is my case). The device continues to locked.
I talked to some technicians who told me that this is a block known as SEDA_LOG or DNP 0001. There are some companies that unlock remotely, but it does not have support for Binary 4.
With rom COMBINATION I can use some applications installed by adb, even my data network works perfectly.
The IMEI is normal, unlocked, and is out of the blacklist.
Other information is that the RMM State is Lock, FRP ON, OEM LOCK ON.
Also, when the lock screen appears a few times the message "Silent Log is not allowed for commercial version, please get the EM token".
Through the Samsung Account I can make the phone ring and even locate it, but it does not unlock.
Some failed attempts:
- flash a rom from another region (the device region is ZTO, I tried O2U)
- wait 7 days for the RMM State to disappear (not disappeared, continued locked)
- freezing the RLC app
- enter several PINs to try to unlock.
- login with my samsung account on rmm.samsung.com to try to unlock rmm, but I can not access.
If anyone can help me, or can guide me in what to do, I am very grateful.
Well, if you got scammed by some nasty person, strictly talking, the device in your hands was illegaly traded, as such, here in XDA no solution will be given or support offered, sorry, these cases appear often, and the moderators usually close the threads
