you cant root or unlock (the bootloader) as the hboot from 2.20 update unless you already had your bootloader unlocked from previous versions.
as for the sim, i have no clue
This bootloader never has been unlocked, this is locked I can't find the roof for the 2.20
whats the first 4 digit in you serial number? HT24, HT25, HT26?
you phone more than likely in too new

What happened? ..
I can unlock it to use a sim from my country.
I bought unlock codes from cellunlocker.net and cellunlockerpro.com with negative results, no code in the databases.
Now I bought a manufacturer unlock code but no answer yet.

If you see a date above imei number, this means sim unlock code not available. The "second method" refers to an alternative for Sensation users only, doesn't work on DS unfortunately.

As Vodafone probably sold the phone (locked) for a very low price, I don't see that as unacceptable, maybe you can't afford it, but that doesn't mean Vodafone is doing anything "wrong".

The phone was, in fact, bought at a reasonably lower cost due to it being part of a deal for a new subscription, and I'm not saying that they shouldn't charge money for unlocking it, because it's well within their rights to do so. It seems to me, though, that this fee is much higher than what is regularly charged for this service (from what I read on these forums / asked other people).
Whatever the cost, though, being able to do it for free is better than having to pay for it . That's the reason why I asked about the method 2 from the Sensation forum. It seems to me that we would only need the .nbh file appropiate for our device (a PG88DIAG.nbh instead of PG58DIAG.nbh), but I don't know where anyone would obtain such a file, In any case, it's something worth researching. I only wish I were more experienced with this sort of hacking / exploiting, perhaps someone more capable than me can look into it.
There was a thread with some technical document about our DS here. The source was a Chech website for mobile phone diagnostic and repair. I think there was a Diag file among the other downloads. You can search for it
EDIT: I have typed PG88DIAG.nbh in Google and got pretty much hits

I wonder if it's the right file or if the people on the Sensation forum modified it somehow to suit their needs. I tried using one of the PG88DIAG.nbh files I found here on XDA, but after following the exact instructions from the Sensation thread, my phone got stuck on "Error writing CID" (or something). It could have been because of the HBOOT (I was using the 0.98.2000 ENG HBOOT) and I could try it again on revolutionary's S-OFF HBOOT, the thread mentioned it needs radio S-OFF, i'm not sure if it has that.
I found another solution to this, and a Desire S owner in the threaed claims that it worked for him (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1681145).
However, in my case it didn't work, My guess is because of the way Vodafone locks their handsets, which seems to be different than the way HTC locks them. Oh well, back to the Internet for more solutions. I hope this one helps some of you.

Desire S doesn't have radio S-OFF.
The most convenient way to achieve full (radio) S-OFF and SIM unlock on Desire S would be to build a Froyo kernel that will run on it and allow executing ADB daemon. It doesn't need to boot Android, just to run. But it's something that a good kernel developer is required for.
Given such kernel, Desire S owners could use gfree.

Unfortunately I'm no where near Germany right now, and I doubt I'll find a helpful XTC Clip owner in Romania, so I decided I'll just give the money to Vodafone and get it over with. I want to gift this phone for Christmas to someone who's on Orange, so I'll just go ahead and pay up. Thanks for the offer though
Well for 50€ you could also buy an XTC clip and you could unlock nearly every HTC device then
They are sending it via FedEx express btw
I'll keep that in mind, thanks for the info

When you re-lock what's generally the best and safest accepted practice ? Flash all stock images, reboot, make sure oem unlock is checked just incase, reboot to bootloader, then oem lock ?

I realize that... it was kinda the point in the thread. Was wondering if anyone else who recently purchased had similar experience. Was kinda hoping Verizon has quit making bootloader perma-locked.
Yea there have been a few others on here and Reddit lately that got them from Verizon and were able to unlock. Verizon will never change its stance on bootloaders so I'm guessing it has something to do with them being backordered all the time and maybe they aren't worried right now with locking them
Wow not bad. Myself, I don't have Verizon, I just have a regular pixel I unlocked.
I recently purchased new Pixel on eBay and it turned out to be a Verizon model. It came with 7.1.1 February patch and phone updated to March. OEM unlocking is grayed out at the moment.
is there any way to force to unlock the bootloader today? because depixel8 0.3 doesnt work for me right now

My understanding, not as a programmer by any means...is that the phone needs to have an unlocked bootloader prior to even having the ability to gain root. If the service provider (Verizon) doesn't unlock this, root cannot happen in a traditional sense. Carriers such as T-Mobile have a root for this phone as they come with unlocked bootloaders. You wont see root on the Verizon variant.

no there isnt hope unless u figure it out the "experts" have tried time and time again
the bootloaders arent locked they are signed with a very special key that would take ever computer together in the worl roughly 200000 years plus to brute force into. verizon and att are the worst
now you all know. as said before if u wanted to root you should have studied before buying a "locked" device
if u want root either get a rootable device or figure it out on your own
as with the g4 there will more than likely never be root for these "locked" devices
not being an ass just the cold hard truth

they cant unlock the bootloader or it would have been done
lgs verity key prevents this through qfused motherboards highly encrypted partitions that the bootloader verifys and if one thing is off bam lg secure boot error.
which again is basicly hardcoded into the device.
no one is going to waste their time trying a 99.9% impossible feat
The phone is just not popular enough the Verizon Galaxy S7 I believe is unlocked for the bootloader. If the phone is popular enough a developer will work on it.

You need to be on marshmallow or have anti-rollback to be 0 which <1% of ppl have. Also, it's not a complete root, so although you have root permissions, it's unstable and you have no root manager (SuperSU/Magisk/etc.)

I've successfully got a working bootloader code for my M5 and it worked. I am now running generic system image and it is working beautifully.
For the record, I am owning a 10 inch M5 (not pro), 64 GB wifi-only version. Bought from official Huawei online store in China. I don't know if this would work on other versions but it is worth a try.
Note: The unlock service from Huawei will terminate on 23 July. It is highly recommended to get a bootloader code if you plan to use custom rom in the future.
Edit: Seems that images are missing. Here is the imgur album link: imgur.com/a/FaaGNkL
I'll try to fix the images. Sorry for any inconvenience!
Requirements for getting the code
A Huawei M5 tablet of cause. 3G or wifi version
A desktop computer
The tablet must login into Huawei cloud for at least 2 weeks
The final requirement is not listed in English version. I am not sure if that need to be fulfilled in English version or not.
Link to unlock form: emui.huawei.com/en/plugin/unlock/index
(Sorry but XDA disallow me to post outside link. I would update this post once I got the permission)
================
1. Go to the link and login with the same account on your tablet
2. Accept the terms
3. Select "Since EMUI 5.0"
4. The "smartphone" cannot be changed. It is by design (or a bug)
For 3G version owners, follow the instruction and fill in the form. I am not owning 3G version and therefore I could not proof if the form is working or not.
================
For Wifi version, the process would be quite tricky.
Seems that Huawei did not plan to make a new wifi-only tablet when designing this unlock web page. We could not skip IMEI field in this form.
...Unless we do some tricks.
This tutorial uses Firefox browser. Chrome does not have resend request feature which is required for our purpose.
Enter the following sequence in offical calculator App
Code:
()()1357946()()
The displayed window should give you all information needed except the IMEI.
It is time for some tricks. Press F12 on your keyboard to bring up developer tools and navigate to Network panel.

Update veri to new verification code in the window
The reuslt sould request body should look like this
Code:
before5=0&sn=YOUR_SERIAL_NUMBER&checkCode=SOME_NUMBER&veri=VERIFICATION_CODE&needimei=0&_form_key=c934efde48a3
Click send and a new check request should show up in the developer tools panel. Inspect it and check the Response tab.
The blacken part is the bootloader unlock code for your device.
================
I used this code for unlocking my device and it workes.
Hope this guide helps!
Worked like a charm! Thanks. I am in the US and got got the US/English version in the mail today and its already unlocked. Dont forget to enable developer options and oem unlock toggle like I did. Thanks

Oh my gosh forgot to check the oem unlock option. Luckly my device still works
You absolutely rock. Thank you!!!
Are you saying if you have a US version, the tablet is already unlocked and I can root?

I can't get this to work. I keep trying the method above, but it always says SN and IMEI are mismatched. Could it be because I've only had the tablet for a couple of days?
I unlocked my tablet immediately after unboxing and it worked.
You Sir, deserve a medal!
Marvelous, thanks @holi0317 !

Sorry for the late reply. I did not receive notification from XDA
I don't own an US version. But I don't think there will be much of the difference in terms of bootloader locking and unlocking strategy.
The tablet should be locked by default and you have to unlock it before rooting.
Thanks for the reply, I got it unlocked, now I'm trying to root.

The response I get is "imei_notbound_account"
I called US support and they referred me to China support because I have the SHT-W09 C432 variant (I thought this was European). I emailed that support line and hope to get some direction back on how to unlock the bootloader. Everything I've done online so far via their webpage and this tutorial does not work. Anyone have any ideas?

Use DC unlocker instead. I have the same model was getting the same response and Huawei support was useless.

Worked like a charm... minus the massive issue of getting the device to be recognzied. Thank you for the suggestion.
i tried it then i got the code but when i write it and click commit i still end up with SN and IMEI are mismatched WTF?
btw i wasnt connected in the cloud until maybe a week so pls tell me that this has nothing to do with the fact that it didnt work.
PLS HELP

No. It's only 4 euros! It is practically free.
This worked great (SHT-W09). Thank you!
How do you log into the huawei cloud. I'm on the Mediapad M5 and I can seem to find where to log into the huawei cloud.
Rejoice people, Nokia just released an official bootloader unlock method for Nokia 8 confirming via a tweet from Juho Sarvikas.
Please check the tweet or Nokia website for more information, I am not yet allowed to post links/urls on XDA threads yet.
I will not definitely do that! Cause, it is a high risk to unlock a device with a cronic image retention problem. I don't want to make my warranty void until I can completely trust this device!

So, A big question to all participants. If we have already unlocked bootloader via unofficial one, do we need to unlock it via official method?
I want to know if it poses no big deal if you have already unlocked bootloader previously using unofficial method.

Simply speaking: the result is the same, because unofficial method calculated the same keys official does. You don't need to unlock again as it's unlocked already.
btw just would like to put this in this topic where it belongs: official announcement post about unlocking https://twitter.com/sarvikas/status/1045298106818949120
