I've this setting in developer setting. If I remember correctly shouldn't be there if it's not unlockable? My motherboard was replaced in warranty if this help.
One more time - this just allows you to run unlock command, but you still need unlock code for it. And for now Nokia does not officially gives those.
Hello I have a new Moto G6. I have enabled developer options and I've enabled OEM unlocking. But it doesn't seem to stay enabled between reboots? I just bought this yesterday. I'm trying to unlock the bootloader, but I can't unless OEM unlocking stays enabled. Am I missing something? I know there's currently no root for the G6, but still I think I should be able to unlock it, or am I mistaken?

That just allows the bootloader to be unlocked. You still would need to actually unlock it following the unlocking guide thread in the guides section

Yes I know this is not root, this is just unlocking the bootloader, yes I do have a key from motorola. But I can't do anything if OEM unlocking will not persist between reboots. I'm just trying to unlock the bootloader. And yes it is unlocked for sims.

I said nothing of root. Unless I am missing something from your original post, "Allow OEM unlocking" just allows the bootloader to be unlockable. After you tick it, reboot directly into fastboot mode (not back into android, that'll untick it again).
[GUIDE] Unlock Bootloader - This states after enabling OEM Unlock in settings (from within Android) to reboot into the bootloader (This guide says power off and then power back on while holding volume down, if you have debugging on you can just "adb reboot bootloader"). Rebooting back into Android with the bootloader still locked I believe does untick the OEM Unlock option.
ok thanks, I'll try again.
I have the XT 1925-6 US unlocked version. One of the first things I do with a new phone is to enable Developer Options and toggle OEM Unlock even though I may not Unlock the Bootloader right away.
The OEM Unlock toggle has stayed persistently on through numerous reboots with the Bootloader still locked.
Hmm.. Well I could have sworn I had seen what was described before, however it has been a while. I unlocked mine all in one go so I can't say. If it's supposed to stay on then I'd really be curious why it isn't for jloh

I tried it again and it worked, thanks. I guess I rebooted android at first. Thank you.
My redmi 4x (santoni) have twrp installed and I it is running on miui pro rom. But it's bootloader locking automatically after enabling usb debugging and switching off the phone. I can't boot into recovery and system, can only boot into fastboot mode, and I have to use mi flash tool to unlock bootloader again.
If someone face this problem, is there any solution of this. Please reply.
Thank you.
Bootloader can only be locked on all available official MIUI ROM, it can not be locked on modified MIUI versions.
There is no way that it'll get locked by itself by turning on USB Debugging and switching off phone. to lock unlocked bootloader one has to clean flash from Mi flash tools and needs to select lock bootloader before flashing.
I don't know how are you able to unlock bootloader on Mi flash tools because to unlock it official way one will need Mi unlock tool with permission from xiaomi(depending on region)
First make sure you are not on fake MIUI if so then flash official one through mi flash tools and then unlock it by mi unlock tools.
Once it is unlocked as i said earlier there is no way that it will get locked itself unless you choose to lock via mi flash tools.
about unlocking again
sorry for mistake, I have to use mi unlock tool again with my mi account signed in to unlock the bootloader again. And can't unlock by fastboot command "fastboot oem unlock".

I have a similar issue and came across this thread, usb debugging suddenly stopped working, it was working perfectly till yesterday. So when I went to developer options, I saw that the OEM unlocking option is clickable now ( it had remained grayed out ever since I unlocked the bootloader ). The Mi Unlock status option tells me that phone is locked. Toggling usb debugging is not making it work. When I restart the phone, I definitely see the unlocked padlock icon on the boot screen. So I am not sure what is going on. also, magisk is working fine.
In the screenshot you can see that it shows the device is locked. But from the status bar you can make out that exposed is working. I'll have to get another device though to get a picture of the padlock icon though.

Toggle OEM unlock enabled doesn´t mean that the device is unlocked, it only means that the bootloader can be unlocked, there is other item just lines after to check it; Mi Unlock status, enter to it and confirm it.
Also, you can confirm the bootloader status through fastboot with fastboot oem device-info

Yea as I mentioned, the mi unlock status tells me that phone is locked.
Just check via fastboot, and it shows that phone is unlocked.
So do I just believe fastboot, or wait a month and then try to again unlock the bootloader via the mi unlock tool?

You said "In the screenshot you can see that it shows the device is locked" but unfortunately the screenshot didn´t reveal that, I wonder, what exactly it says in the Mi Unlock status apart.
In older days, users share an aboot image, this served to unlock bootloader automatically without make the official process to unlock it, it could be that you flashed the official stock images, and it got re-locked. Anyway, we don´t know what happened with the fastboot command or with the Mi Unlock status section, so no respond to those points.
For the part you say to wait a certain time, definitely, no, the bootloader process is not monitored any more, for older devices, they can be unlocked instantly.

My phone is about a month old, so it does tell me to wait. Contradictory screenshots attached below. After the boot unlock, I did flash flash a magisk edited boot.img and vbmeta.img to disable it. If I remember correctly though it was fine after that.
Hey guys,
I've searched the forum but nobody seems to have reported the issue I'm experiencing. The way the posts are worded, unlocking the Tab S8+ is a given. I know the US S22 has no OEM Unlocking officially supported. I've followed all the workarounds to get the option to appear to no avail.
My only theory is that VZW hasn't yet unlocked my S8+ (if it was ever locked to begin with, nevertheless I've owned it less than 60 days). Can anybody confirm if this model can be bootloader unlocked by conventional means either prior or after carrier unlock?
Hi! I'm going to try to find the other user's post who enlightened me in this section, but I might have trouble finding it.
Effectively, no U.S. carrier's version of previous and current Samsung Galaxy Tabs can have the bootloader unlocked - at least that's what I remember them telling me. You have to buy the Wi-Fi only version to be able to unlock the bootloader.
Now - SIM unlock, I know nothing about on the Tabs. Normally no matter what U.S. carrier, that I'm aware of, once you pay off your device (if financed), they'll SIM unlock the device, and although you can relate the two things (SIM and bootloader unlocking), they are completely separate and it's only certain U.S. phones (not Samsung phones or tablets) that getting SIM unlock enables you to also do OEM unlocking, and therefore be able to unlock the bootloader.
Verizon never allows the bootloader to be unlocked on any kind of device, no matter what, and all U.S. Samsung carrier devices - both phones and tablets, are never able to get their bootloader unlocked. I'm not including the rare exception that there's a hack to be able to get root - but most hacks circumvent the locked bootloader - they don't often actually allow the bootloader to be unlocked, and this sort of thing is rarer and rarer anymore.
Edit: I believe this is the post, by @googlephoneFKLenAsh.
Thank you for your thorough explanation. I was expecting the Tab to be the same situation as with the U.S. Galaxy phones, I just wasn't able to find confirmation of that.
I know Verizon is hostile to bootloader unlocking (case in point Pixel). So it was either gonna be my carrier and if not that my region.
Tablets do on rare occasion are exceptions (iirc ATT doesn't carrier lock tablets) so barring an explanation elsewhere I figured I'd post and have that question answered for myself and those concerned.
I don't understand the motivation behind it given that unlocking is already a process that can't be exploited by malware/spyware and carries a myriad of drawbacks/risks.

You're welcome!
I'm not sure I understand what you're saying here, or I'm not sure if you meant to say it differently.
An unlocked (or unlockable) bootloader can definitely be exploited without our awareness.
I agree that I don't understand the motivation - at least in contrast to AT&T and T-Mobile which apparently do allow bootloaders to be unlocked once their phones are paid for and SIM unlocked. I also don't know why or if AT&T and T-Mobile would not allow Samsung tablets to be bootloader-unlocked while allowing other brands.
Overall I think the motivation is the prevention of potentially more problems that users will have and also potentially brick their device and then they wind up with an unhappy customer because the carrier won't consider the device under warranty since it had been fiddled with in a way they're not willing to support (understandably).
Additionally, root malware would potentially be using their mobile network for nefarious purposes.

I have the same s8+ 5G model and I'm unable to get to the unlock option from download mode. I have however managed to turn on the OEM unlock from android. It is very fiddly to get to the OEM unlock option, and it will disappear afterward. The method I used is to quickly go to the developer's options before the tablet fully started after a reboot. It will let you toggle the OEM unlock.
I'm waiting if someone found a way to get the bootloader unlock from download mode. Obviously I have tried all other methods ( e.g> cable + up+down volume )
It's actually not possible to unlock via download mode. Download mode is only used for Odin flashing and the like.
You have to get to the bootloader which I believe is power and vol up WITHOUT using the cable afaik.
If by some catastrophic reason you can't get into the bootloader after that, you can boot the device, enable USB debugging, plug into pc, and run adb reboot bootloader or adb reboot recovery.

Have you been able to get the OEM unlocking switch to reappear after you've already toggled it?
If so, is it still on when it reappears? If it is then there's a high likelihood the device can then be unlocked.

yes, it remains as OEM unlocked. I even tried to see if this could be false positive by flipping OEM unlock back and forth. It has shown the setting is persistence, if you set OEM unlock it will stay unlock. If you set it back to OEM lock. It stays as OEM lock.

You are supposed to boot into bootloader mode and then use the fastboot tool to trigger the unlock.
Either fastboot flashing unlock or fastboot oem unlocking. Something like that.

These are the necessary steps on this tablet to unlock the bootloader - it doesn't involve Fastboot from the Platform Tools. I am aware that on standard Android/AOSP that it does involve Fastboot since for my phones I choose Google Pixel devices.
skrowl said:
Step 1 - Prepare your Tablet (only necessary for first install on unrooted device)
While Frija is downloading the firmware, prepare your device by doing the following:
Settings > About Tablet > Software Information > Click Build Number 7 times quickly
Developer Options (just below About Tablet on the left column)
Turn on USB Debugging
Turn on OEM unlocking
NOTE: If the OEM Unlocking option doesn't appear, connect the device to the internet, wait a few minutes, then try again
Power tablet completely off (Hold volume down + power button if you haven't changed the Bixby settings)
While holding volume up and volume down, plug the tablet into your PC via USB
Let go of volume keys as soon as the blue-green screen shows up
Press and hold volume up for 5 seconds, the screen will change to a confirmation prompt
Press volume up again to confirm, the tablet will reboot
Unplug your tablet from USB
Go through initial setup. Don't bother copying files or installing anything.
Skip signing in to your Google account and Samsung account. You won't be using them for this step.
Settings > About Tablet > Software Information > Click Build Number 7 times quickly
Developer Options (just below About Tablet on the left column)
Turn on USB Debugging
Reboot the tablet

Ah I wasn't aware that some devices do not require fastboot to finalize unlock and instead immediately unlock when toggling OEM Unlocking.
Is it possible to confirm the unlock by getting the bootloader vars using fastboot however?
Alternately, what's the easiest way to confirm the bootloader is unlocked?

According to this post, you should have your bootloader unlocked now. Could you try following the instructions listed and report back?
Could you also explain in more detail how you can get the OEM unlocking option to appear?
I seem to be having no luck. You do own a US model, correct?

Actually, although the instructions don't make it clear without the context of seeing what's on the screen, steps 5 through 7 are what unlock the bootloader. OEM Unlocking still only (normally) enables unlocking the bootloader:
5. While holding volume up and volume down, plug the tablet into your PC via USB
Let go of volume keys as soon as the blue-green screen shows up
6. Press and hold volume up for 5 seconds, the screen will change to a confirmation prompt
7. Press volume up again to confirm, the tablet will reboot

Also, just as on the Google Pixel and many or all other devices, the easiest way to see that your bootloader is unlocked is the (IMHO) big honking stupid advertisement when you reboot or turn on your device that the bootloader is unlocked and the (paraphrasing) "hey thieves, if you just stole this device, you're in luck because you can hack into someone's account easier since this device's bootloader is unlocked" that stays on the screen seemingly forever.
I know that if they're actually technically savvy they'd be able to find that out anyway, but all this forced pre-boot screen does is punish those who unlock their bootloader. End Rant.
Ah I see what you mean, so It's been stated that US devices either resist BL unlocks e entirely or require alternative solutions.
That being said, has there been reports of UI bugs causing the option to appear on USA models under certain circumstances?

No. I've read every post in this section starting from when I pre-ordered mine (February?), and the only post I've seen about being able to enable OEM Unlocking was from @killerzac.
Too bad that doesn't easily lead to actually being able to unlock, even if the OEM Unlocking aspect was widely reproducible.

Have you found a solution?
I'm in such a weird place. I'm in the UK my first Tab S8 Ultra unlocked originally but after relocking the bootloader I can't get the OEM Unlock to reappear. I needed an unlocked tablet so I bought another one and this one has never had the OEM Unlock option. Waited many sets of 7 days trying different Samsung accounts and Google accounts. I do notice like you that if you get to dev options quickly after boot OEM Unlock is there but it definitely hasn't loaded properly at this point and changing it does nothing. Tablet never gives the bootloader unlock option when you go through the process.
The only thing ive noticed is on both devices the KG Status is Active (Viewed in Download Mode). My S22 which has the OEM Unlock option shows it as inactive. Samsung have told me that I can send the tablet to them and they will look at it but I can't be without it at the moment. Don't know if both my tablets are wrongly reporting that they are in finance and MDM is locking it potentially following my Samsung account to the new tablet I bought.
Really annoyed with Samsung now spent hours on web chats with them where they keep making you reset the tablet and won't escalte it.
Even more annoying they won't look at my first tablet because it did unlock initially so the warrenty is void now that it won't unlock they have said they will replace the mainboard for £800.
@Jono0907 That really sucks! I'm sorry to hear about all the trouble. I "swear" - customer service these days. Someday, companies will just stop even having the (mostly) nearly useless customer service that they do now, and they just won't have any at all.

Hi Jono,
I haven't look at it since and I'm pretty sure your finding is very much same as mine, Quote "Table never gives the bootloader unlock option". I gave my s8+ to my 5 years old son as his toy now. Piece of garbage without ROOTing for me. I'm reverting back to using my tabS6. You might hapend to see me on the northen line with my TabS6, very rare scene.
Hi Guys
Need your assistance, its a complete mess here.
I found android 14 pre releases in developer options -> DSU Loader -> Installed GSM+ARM64. Thought it will install android 14 pre release (Saw in one of youtube video -
).
Post restart phone it went to system has been destoryed.
1. OEM unlock option was not checked (Bootloader locked)
2. Only booting in fastboot mode.
3. Flashing through EDL/ Flash Auth not working.
I can only think of unlocking bootloader may fix this issue but problem is bootloader is locked. Can't unlock it because oem unlock is not enabled under developer options.
Please help me bypass OEM unlock check so that I can unlock bootloader & probably flashing TWRP or Orange recovery will fix the problem
Thank you
This tutorial is for those who have the bootloader unlocked (see the video at 3 minutes 38, the padlock is open).
What did you want to do?
The phone is bricked, nothing to do with the locked bootloader, see a Xiaomi repair center.
Hi
I missed that it is for unlocked bootloader.
So if bootloader is locked, it should not update the partitions & if so it should roll back to original miui if it fails.
But instead it bricked my phone.
So if someone can help me unlock bootloader I can try flashing recovery & then rom.
Or suggest better option. service center people asked to replace motherboard.
hi!
If there is any way to fix it, unfortunately it is paid.

It is imperative to unlock the bootloader with a xiaomi account where unlocking is authorized and associated with your smartphone. Without it, not worth it...
So unlock the bootloader and apply one of those countless FAQs that you'll find on XDA or youtube.
For me, settled in an hour.
Good luck,
