So i was following these steps mentioned (developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/unlock-yourboot-loader/) hoping to unlock the bootloader...
It says i need to connect the mobile to the PC in fastboot mode by connecting the phone while pressing the volume up key...
But always it seems to enter in charging mode
I wonder if it does even work, so my question....
Has anyone of you tried it, does it work or is it still a dream to unlock the bootloader in xperia c.....?

bootloader != fastboot.
Fastboot is accessed through Android 2.3.X SDK.
http://www.pdasoft.cz/files/root/obrazky_k_clankum/2011/Google-Nexus-S/31-Nexus_S-bootloader.jpg
thats the bootloader. So yes, you're already in the bootloader.
If you want fastboot to work. Look for the rooting thread stickied and follow those instructions. You also need nexus s usb drivers for fastboot to work.
EDIT:nvm i fixed that.
thanks

I have bricked my inspire 4g eng s-off i was just trying to root my inspire 4g without unlocking bootloader noob i just know nothing about unlocking bootloader i used htc quick root software when the process start the software requested me an hboot image and unfortunatly i located to recovery image and phone turned off now when ever i try to turn it on it gives three vibrates vol down +pwr five vibrates please help m
volume up +voldown+pwr button five vibrates and a stable green led vol down +pwr three vibrates and red blinking led just pwr on button three vibrates red blinking led
If your bootloader wasn't unlocked, I don't see how you could have bricked it. Also, do you know if you had usb debug mode turned on? You couldn't have flashed an image with a locked bootloader and the scripts won't work either since the adb/fastboot utilities cannot talk to your phone if debug mode is off.
At any rate, pull out the battery for a few minutes, reseat the battery, connect the phone to your pc, hold down vol- and power and see if you can get to a bootloader screen. Even if it seems to boot but hangs at the green htc logo, you should still be able to issue adb commands and recover.
Once the phone boots, on your pc, open a command prompt and type the command "adb devices" without quotes to see if your phone is recognized. Let us know the status then.

Qualcomm mode is what happens when you hold volume down instead of up while booting. A common issue with the inspire is the volume rocker malfunctioning and becoming "stuck". Usually it is volume up that gets stuck. Either way you will have to probably repair the volume rocker by replacing it. With the age of the device though I don't think it's worth it to spend any money on repairs. It's almost 3 years old now. I know it seems concidental to happen at the same time your trying to unlock it but it can happen. If it is something that went wrong while you were trying to unlock it your pretty much in the same boat. If it only goes to Qualcomm mode there is nothing you can do.

Then something happened when you tried to unlock it. If you can't access the device via fastboot or adb then it is not fixable. Reflashing a boot img or hboot would be what you would want to do if you could gain access.
Hi I'm hoping someone can help or at least point me in the right direction if i've missed a thread, i'm on Windows 7 64bit.
I appear to be stuck in a boot loop on my original Shield Tablet, stuck on nvidia screen when i try to go into recovery mode i get the "dead android" picture.
I have tried to unlock the bootloader and i get FAILED <remote: <>, device shows up under fastboot devices command, device shows up as Android Bootloader Interface in Device Manager.
I've searched the forums and seen this problem but everyone else seems to be able to unlock easily, this is the same but no replies https://forum.xda-developers.com/shield-tablet/help/nvidia-shield-unlock-bootloader-failed-t3178865.
Any help anyone can give me would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Check the recovery images section for your device here: https://developer.nvidia.com/shield-open-source
Instructions to unlock the bootloader:
Unlocking the Bootloader
Your SHIELD TABLET may have shipped with a locked bootloader. To update the device,
you must unlock the bootloader using the following:
- fastboot oem unlock
- Press the "Volume Down" button to select "Unlock bootloader" option on device
- Press the "Power" button to confirm the unlock. Your device's bootloader is now unlocked.

You need to already have adb set up and the Shield connected to the PC to do this. If you don't have USB debugging enabled, this may not be possible, but you should still be able to get into recovery by booting the tablet with Vol- and power button (hold volume - and then just press the power button, don't hold both at the same time).
Yes I've tried that (I know the steps of unlocking the bootloader) that's when i get the FAILED error. When I try to enter recovery I get the "dead" Android picture.

Hello, ShaineDiaz.
Can you enter to the dload mode by pressing Volume UP & DOWN key simultaneously while restarting?
How can I get my Galaxy Note 20 Ultra out of stuck at 'entering fastboot mode'?
Hold down power and volume down until it reboots back to recovery. I got stuck there last week and that's what worked for me.

Is this problem solved? I cannot boot into bootloader mode, thanks!
Switch off the device. Then hold volume up and down buttons and insert the USB cable plugged to PC. You will get to download/odin mode

Download mode is different from fatboot mode, I can enter, and works ok download mode. However, fastboot does not, it gets stuck in entering fastboot mode and no fastboot command works
I got same issue here, I've tried rooting via TWRP and after data wipe and "reboot to recovery" it got stuck in same thing and doesn't move at all, if I hold power and vol down it just boots the device which i dont want since i need to flash magisk as a last step. if anyone encountered this or knows how to fix it i'd be helpful
I'm not rooted but I've had past Samsung devices that I was able to root and if I'm not mistaken Samsung phones aren't able to boot into fastboot mode because Samsung removed the ability to. You can run commands via ADB mode but I think that's about it

it gets stuck into fastboot entering if i try to do it the old fashion way .. please help
Guys, turn off the phone, press volume up and volume down together, and plug the usb cable while pressing volume up and down, and wait until the phone enter in downloading mode. This work for me.

Since we can"t enter into fastboot mode is it possible to flash boot.img with adb commands?
I m having the same problem with a21s(a217f). I can t enter download mode using key combinations and the other way launching it from recovery doesn t work, it stays stuck at,, entering fastboot mode,,
The ROM is already bricked, it says in recovery when i try to factory reset the following error:,, can t mount. /system (structure needs cleaning)
Even with,, apply up. with adb,, doesn t work, it just doesn t get detected on my computer when i checked with adb tools.
! The only thing that works is that I can access my sd card and apply a update from sd card but I don t know where to get the update file. (I ll edit if it works to flash stock rom from,, apply update from sd card,, )
Anybody got some ideas or should i burn my motherboard and replace it?
sorry for bad english
Honestly plug device into PC.
Power off device
hold all 3 side buttons. Volume up and down and power/bixby.
Should usually work.
After in fast boot you must press a button Volume button to find via odin.

I already did that, unplugged the battery, reconnected it after 1min, connected my phone to the computer and pressed all 3 side buttons, still doesn t work. I guess the download mode is deleted or something..
Volume up & down, no side key, then connect to PC. Works for me. Connect to PC first does not work for me.

It wouldn't be deleted as it's a safety protocol if the device has a bad update and freaks out.
Maybe try to person above method.
Normally I can enter download mode with any of these methods if you cannot I'd suggest trying to get the device replaced due to software malfunction

Samsung phones use a tool called Odin to flash firmware. If you're flashing custom firmware firmware you'll need to have your bootloader unlocked.
I got mine into download mode just now. It's a Galaxy A13 .. Like stated above, try to hold all three buttons down and connect to USB. I had to let go before it showed the battery charge icon. From off. If not from off try from charging. I think that's what I did just now. Plug the usb -> let it show the charging icon (from powered off!) -> hold all three buttons, let it power on, let go. DONE.
just follow this video it helped me a lot to unlock my boot loader
