Hi there,
I recently found my Honor 9 lite LLD-L31.
I want to be able to remove some software and also have the ability to install a custom rom.
After searching, I found several bootloader unlock solutions, however, I don't know which ones are reliable.
If possible, I would like to do it easily and for free.
Here are the different solutions found:
- HCU customer (link) -> 19€
- ministry of solutions (link) -> 15€
- Potato NV (link)
- Kingo Root
- Towelroot
What method do you recommend?
Finally I noticed the FRP lock, is it a bootloader unlock issue?
Thank's

1. HCU-client (4euros) - but you have to downgrade to EMUI 8 via HiSuite and then downgrade to the build number with google patches april - june 2018 via dload method
2. PotatoNV
- King Root and Kingo Root doesn't work on android 7 and above
- Napkin Root - ???

or give me a link with an explanation?

Okay, download service ROM
Link
Unpack, find dload folder in "Software" folder. copy the dload folder (without unpacking it !) to the root directory of the SD card. Turn off the phone, press and hold Power and both Volume buttons .
With .132 you should be able to use hcu-client.
Gerat
I will use update with *#*#2846579#*#*, it's OK ?
Thank's your help.
I test that

Hello,
I did not understand this sentence, but I still tried to move forward
1) I successfully downgraded with the SDCard Upgrade option.
However, the update bugged and it was repaired in version: 8.0.0.046 (0CAS).
Does this version allow the use of the hcu-client?
2) I still tested to use hcu-client with their tutorial (Link).
I connected the phone via USB, was in *#*#2846579#*#* mode to put the phone in "manufacture Mode" (1. Background Setting, then 2. USB Port Setting)
Here, I manage to connect, however from step 4, I am constantly asked to connect and gives me an error:
(I have the same thing when restarting in production mode)
I tried to connect to find the phone in "manufacture mode" instead of "Fastboot/Xloader"
And there, I have no error and the information is displayed:
Here, I am restarting with hold Power and both Volume buttons.
In the latter case, I'm not sure what to do to unlock the bootloader.
Do you have an idea?
[EDIT]: I find this link for reading bootloader (LINK). This is the better link for unlocking the bootloader?

Select "Unlock" and then press "Read Bootloader code".
Maybe you get an Error because of the wrong build number.
Btw, everything can be found in tutorial. With photos

I read all this post. and, I read this post too (link) and I think use the tutrial on this video (link).
In this tutorial, the phone is with EMUI9. Can i keep my bootloader number and use it with this video indication?
Or it's limited to specific version of EMUI 9 ?
Hi,
I managed to use the commands:
./adb devices
./adb reboot-bootloader
./fastboot oem unlock 4453XXXXXXXXXX
My phone is unlocked,
But I can't use this command:
./fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk "TWRP-9.1.img"
this command returns me: < waiting for any device >
Do you know what the reason is?
[EDIT]
After reboot-Bootloader, I have :

problem with emui page in english
hi,
tried to follow the instructions, but unfortunately get stuck at stage 1 about the unlock code obtention page
Reason is the url advised there yields a totally blank page: (emui dot com)-en-plugin-hwhomepage-homepage (replace dashes with slashes, sorry I'm not allowed to post urls yet)
-> Did any one else got the same behavior and succeeded passing through successfully somehow?
I tried changing "en" by "cn" in the url, that somehow works as it leads to Emui homesite or something (in chinese) but then I could not find any invite to login and/or getting to some "unlock code retrieval" menu down there...

That's why I suggest opening the English and Chinese pages next to each other so you can guess the position of the buttons to press on the Chinese site by looking at the English site.

This is incorrect. My Product ID is an 8-digit number and totally different from the serial number.
You might try installing the Google dialer?

Can anyone else confirm that this works? Steps 2+3 anyways.

Hi Flavio,
I can confirm that you get the product-id with an additional dialer on a wifi-only tablet.
I have installed the PixelDialer from google and with that code *#*#1357946#*#* I got the ID.
So, now I can try to get the unlock-code and unlock it via fastboot (a simple "fastboot oem unlock" dosn't work) and thenn I will follow step 2+3.

I will pack twrp for m3 in my tool and release it later . coming soon.
Works!! thank you

Can't seem to get trwp to work either. Posted about this on the greatlson's mod thread but the OP there doesn't seem to care. Hopefully someone else can put a working TWRP together on our device.
First things first.
I have too low amount of posts to post in dev sections so its there.
None of described software belongs to me. And im not responsible for damages.
!!! MI FLASH TOOL BELOW !!!
http://en.miui.com/unlock/download_en.html
Okay so me and probably others have/had problems with unlocking your Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime.
These are simple steps to succes.
what is needed: Redmi 4 pro, ADB drivers
1. Sign to Xiaomi and apply for unlocking http://en.miui.com/unlock/
It is important to add correct data.
2. Connect to your Mi account on the device and enable Find Device option under Xaiomi cloud
if it is done correctly u will be able to find ur device at https://i.mi.com/
3 Wait for permission u will receive SMS message.
4. When permission is aquired and device is connected to Mi Cloud we have to try to unlock the device.
5 . Download Mi Unlock software ( added to post up there )
6 .Enable developer settings
System info -> couple of clicks on MiUi version
Back - > more settings -> developer settings - > Enable OEM unlock
7. Reboot to fastboot ( Vol down + power ) till some (russian?) bunny appears
8. Perform unlock from Mi Unlocker and press
Left button
enter Login(email) and password to mi account
Connect the phone and press the button !
9 Reboot. You should be done Congrats !
You can install miui global now or any other rom. to Perform you have to :
1. Boot to fastboot
2.Download Brigudav Recovery https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-4-prime/development/recovery-twrp-3-1-1-2-brigudav-t3656372
3.connect the phone

I dont know but if you have installed non original rom isnt ur phone already unlocked?
Probably you can unlock your phone just make an application you can probably check the bootloader state from fastboot by
Code:
fastboot oem device-info
in fastboot mode

You need to flash a official China Stable 8.0.5.0 ROM to unlock - tried it with different phones and methods...
I have not activated the "find device" and is still unlocked.
Hi
I have recently purchased a Redmi 4 Prime phone that came with the vendor rom and I wanted to flash the latest china dev rom, but am stuck in bootloop. cant enter DL mode, but fastboot is OK. unfortunately none of the adb commads work, the phone is recognized under "fastboot devices" but not under "adb devices". I have tried the fastboot2edl v2 method but is goes straight into bootloop. can you please suggest what to do and help me out?

Try to turn it off and press volume down + up and power until the LED flashes red and connect USB - it should be recognized as Qualcomm ******
If not, then build your own deep flash cable or order one on ebay or something... - with that u can reach the DL mode on nearly every Qualcomm device

Flashed the Developer Preview Rom and it worked
usually the issue with unlock is a different username used to login. use the same, either email, number or name on both.
should solve it.
Can anyone translate this to English?

Hi there.
I decided to post a guide on how to downgrade and unlock the bootloader of "Huawei P Smart"
I've seen a lot of people now knowing how to downgrade, to a unlockable firmware.
Please note that "Bootloader unlocking" costs 4€ using this method!
I do not take responsibility for any phone that Is bricked or damaged In any way, by using this guide!
Required Stuff:
Huawei P Smart (any model)
Charging Cable
Windows PC
DC-Unlocker (easily found on google)
Firmware Finder Huawei (found on Play Store)
And of course 4€ If you are unlocking bootloader.
Downgrading
Here Is my current firmware:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
First of all we need Firmware Finder:
After that we open It and It should have a button with your phone model.
In my case I am using a FIG-LX1
On the list of firmware's I selected FIG-LX1C432B129 (8.0.0.129)
Now you should get to another menu and select the eRecovery option.
Then you should get this handy message with a DNS Address you need to enter In your Router.
In my case I found It under basic settings, and my default gateway was 192.168.0.1
After this Is done, disconnect, and reconnect to your WiFi on the phone.
Then press the "Open QUERY" button, on the same page as we got the DNS address.
Make sure the website looks like this.
Now press next, and you should get a "check availability" button
Should say this.
Press OK and press next.
Now press the "Register Update button.
Should come with a small popup saying that you registered It.
Now press next, and press OK on the second pop-up.
Now you need to power down your device.
Then you simply Insert the charger and immediately start holding volume up.
Release once you see this screen.
Press the "Download latest Version" button.
Then you should get into this screen.
Here you just need to press the "Download and Recovery"
It should connect to WiFi, and should start downloading like this.
Remember to check that It Is the 8.0.0.129(C432) Firmware!
After this Is done you should get into a bootloop.
This Is easily fixed by holding Power + Volume UP.
Now you should be In normal recovery.
Just press "Wipe Cache" and then "Factory Reset"
Now your phone will reset, and should boot into first time setup.
No need to set It up completely If you are going to unlock bootloader!
Here Is my Build Number after his procedure.
If your phone Is like mine, congratz on the Downgrade
Bootloader Unlock
Now for the bootloader unlocking.
As mentioned before you will need 4€ for this procedure!
First of all.
enable developer options. (press Build Number 7 times)
Then make sure USB Debugging, and OEM Unlock Is enabled!
Now we need to go to the dial pad, and enter In the number: *#*#2846579#*#*
It should get you to a menu like this one:
Once in that menu, go Into "Background Settings" and select "USB Port Settings"
In there select "Manufacture Mode"
Now plug In your USB, and open up, DC-Unlocker.
On the left Select "Huawei Phone", and press the Left button.
Then It should detect your phone like this:
Now you need to press the "Buy Credits" button, and go through their form.
Remember to buy 4 credits (he cost of bootloader code).
Even easier, you can get the DC-Unlocker app from the Play Store, and get credits through that.
They will send you a password for your account, once payment received.
Now press the "Server" Tab and login.
Then go to "Unlocking tab" and press "Read Bootloader Code"
It should give you your bootloader code.
Now comes the easy part!
Go Into the folder where you downloaded DC-Unlocker
In the address bar, type "CMD" (without the "") and press Enter.
You should get command prompt up like this.
Now you simply enter these commands.
adb devices. (make sure your phone Is listed)
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot devices (make sure device Is listed)
fastboot oem unlock *KEY* (replace *KEY* with your bootloader code from DC-Unlocker.
now you should see a "Yes or No" screen on your phone.
Press Vol up/down move and Power to select.
Now your phone will reboot, and automatically reset Itself.
All data will be erased.
After this It should pop-up like this, and then boot Into Android.
If everything went according to plan.
You should be unlocked and ready to flash some Roms
I recommend flashing OpenKirin roms, since they are specific for this chipset!
Sorry for the VERY big pictures, and hope you could use this tutorial :fingers-crossed:

Is it okay to install firmware for the FIG-LX2ZAFC185 on my FIG-LX2C185? Firmware Finder can't find any software for my device. Edit: Yes it's okay, I had no problems!
Also, I can't put my phone into Manufacture mode; when I enter the dial code the dialer just resets :/ Edit: After downgrading Firmware it worked
Thanks so much for the guide man!
Nova 2
Hello,
Thank you so much for your tuto.
I have a problem with firmware finder. I'd like to downgrade my Huawei Nova 2 to Nougat so I chose one of the firmware proposed with EMUI 5. But when I click on "check availibility", It send me to the first page where I have to chose my phone model.
Please help me... I really need to unlock my bootloader, I thought I would succeed with your tuto I was so close...
Tell me if you have some suggestions.
Thank you so much.

Sorry for late reply, currently working on some stuff
I don't have a Huawei Nova 2 so I am not the best to ask
This guide with bootloader unlock is intended for Huawei P Smart.
That being said try: reinstalling the app, and select the earliest firmware for the phone
When i tried downgrade not working. Is there any new solution?

use only full OTA stock update you downloaded from internet on pc using chrome but download from creators of firmware finder team MT... then global search in XDA for hurupdater.. follow instructions to apply stock rom sd card.. doesnt matter if it's a downgrade it will flash
But if i use hurupdater, do i need bootloader unlocked.
So now my bootloader is locked and can i use hurupdater?

I paid a guy who did it all for me downgrade and bootloader £9, if you can downgrade yourself it's only 5£ for bootloader unlock. I've been around a while but I class myself as a noob. The website is called MOS ministry of solutions. However now I've been there done unlock, root, twrp which was only last week I'd say it's a waste of time, unless you really know what your doing but even then these guys in here have gone full circle back to stock. I've gone full circle not just to stock, removed root and back to stock recovery. Only thing I took from root was I managed to make the speaker louder as one of my motivations for root was viper which don't work on Huawei or specifically psmart for sure. So sorry to say this but at this stage there isn't much development for psmart which is because Huawei have made it difficult. I'd advise against mods of any kind at this stage. I was rooted less than a week and multiple resets, soft bricks and not much success with magisk modules that count like viper.
i used erecovery method also, i think my version block all methods using firmware finder. my version FIG-LX1 8.0.0.163(C432). Any one have success downgrade with this version?
Finally, yesterday i bought new sd card 16gb and dowload a firmware which is old one from androidhost ru. And downgrade is completed. I bought bootloader unlock code reader from google play store dc unlocker and happy ending

with this method your firmware will be changed like 8.0.0.046.
when your bootloader unlocked succesfully.
VolUp + Power and use Erecovery to dowmload correct version

This is true, unless you plan to install a custom ROM like Open Kirin, then there is no point

Yes, i used aosp 9.0 but battery performance was bad. I turn back stock version. I could not find custom rom with better battery performance.
Did someone tried to unlock P Smart 2019 model?

Great! I also have this problem...
Does unlocking in this way factory resets the tablet?
Is the "firehose" file version sensitive (i.e., if I use the S001016 file in a S001014 TB-X304F will I have any kind of trouble?)
Thanks!

After unlocking, when u Boot into system it asks for a password, even if u didn't set one to start with (atleast in my case).
So you need Boot into recovery and wipe data.
Short answer: yes, factory reset is necessary.
Regarding file version, I hav no idea... May be u can give it a try...

But there are many videos on the same procedure for other Qcom phones, you can get some hint from that.
If you are very new to this, i suggest you not to do, unless your are confident.

Can u tell where u got stuck ??
Work! You're GENIUS
hello,
I already root some device but here I'm stuck because I don't find the port number in device manager :-( drivers installed and "lenovo tab4 10" displayed in device manager. in properties I have : port_#0002.hub_#0005
I tried use 0002 or 0005 as port number but the .bat script failed each time. do I have correct port number ?
[EDIT] I have "failed to write hello response back to device" message and my tablet is in FFBM Mode.
[EDIT] in FFBM mode, my device is recognized in device manager (but i'm not sure to find the correct port and the script don't work) and in FastBoot Mode (first menu), my device seems to be not recognized in device manager. I guess that the script must be launched in this mode but I miss a driver. I install "adb drivers" + QDLoader-HS-USB_Driver_64bit_Setup drivers. What do I miss ?
So recently I purchased a Redmi note 10 Pro Max and it's pretty nice so far but yea there's one problem MIUI. I'm not really a big fan of it so I really wanna change it but I've been trying that since couple of days now I can't really use any miunlock tools because I'm on Mac. I've tried every command to unlock ./fastboot oem unlock and whenever I use this command it says this (FAILED (remote: 'Token Verify Failed, Reboot the device')
I've turned oem unlock thing in developer options and turned on usb debugging.
and ./fastboot flashing unlock (this one doesn't work at all) so is there any way to unlock the bootloader so I can install twrp then a custom rom. And there was also I thing I would like to know does installing a custom rom or recovery void your warranty I mean like in future if my phone's display stop working or some speaker problems would they still repair it ??? Thanks a lot

Depend on your country/region Xiaomi/Redmi warranty policy.
If warranty is void after unlock bootloader, then no.
If warranty is not void after unlock bootloader, then when you need warranty support for hardware, better flash official MIUI back into phone. The recovery should also change back to official ones.
Xiaomi/Redmi/Poco warranty is different between countries and regions, so you have to lookup on their website yourself.
Thanks a lot. I'll definitely check it out also I'm thinking to install Pixel Experience do you think it is a good rom for this phone?

I had this error too. And i figured out what was wrong. It's easy:
1. Log in on your xiaomi account
2. Enable developer options in Settings > About Phone by repeatedly tapping MIUI Version.
3. Enable USB debugging
4. Go to developer options and enable "OEM Unlocking"
5. Also in developer options is sth like "MI unlocking status" click on it, and scroll down to button "add account and device", click on it, you need to parry phone with your xiaomi account
6. Use tool to unlock device/follow instructions in that app. ( default one - miflash unlock, or - XiaoMiTool V2). I dit it using miflash unlock,

Here are the exact steps if you need it. The instructions are for linux, but similar steps worked for me on both linux and windows. I skipped steps 4 and 5 and just used the gradlew included in the repo. You can find more info and troubleshooting here but feel free to PM me if you run into issues.
I recompiled the program but I am blocked at phone detecting. Perhaps there is no way to do this
