I have a nexus 5 running on android 6.0.1
I was trying to root it when I found that the 'Enable oem unlock' option present in the developer options is missing on my device.
The nexus root toolkitv2.1.0 also failed to detect my device. If you have any knowledge regarding this problem and how to solve it, please feel free to share.
Thanks in advance!
Thread moved to proper forum
It doesn't exist on the N5 with MM. Just boot into fastboot and run the fastboot command fastboot oem unlock and use the phone's button to select "yes".
And if Nexus Root Toolkit failed to detect the phone, it might be a PC driver problem. Use the "install drivers" button to make sure that everything works.

I am trying to root my HTC One M7. I have done the research, and I know how to go about it. I have running into a few snags, though. I joined htcdev.com, and read the tutorial for how to unlock the boatloader, but Step 5 wants me to access the command prompt on my PC and enter a command so that I will receive my identifier token, and then I should be able to unlock bootloader, and continue the process through Kingo successfully.
But, my phone is not appearing in the command prompt on my PC, only the line for C:\Users\Username>
MTP is enabled on my phone, I believe that could be the culprit, because my computer is reading it as a mass storage device. But, I am unable to disable MTP mode, or even switch to PTP mode. I have tried every possible way.
Also, under developer options in my phone settings, there is no option to enable OEM Unlock.
Someone please help, I may be missing a simple solution, but I've been at this all day and have no dice.
Thank you

No access to Devlepoer options for USB Debugging
Hi I have a Huawei Mate 9 which is FRP locked, I have gained the unlocking code from Huawei and have all relevent software and instructions to unlock Bootloader and remove the FRP protecton but I am really struggling with connecting the device in CMD with adb.
I have drivers installed and have allowed connections to phone with HiSuite on device and PC, I am unable to get into Developer settings due to FRP protection bur according to what I have seen in every walkthrough shows that this should not be a problem, even though I am unable to enabe USB debugging. Anyway I did have it connected once but have not been able to since so if anone can tell me where i might be going wrong I would be grateful.
After resetting phone and following instuctions via Huawei to prepare device I hold Vol- and plug in USB to Boot into Fastboot/Recovery mode.
Open CMD and execute Adb.exe in command, after that I enter command \adb devices which gets deamon running but showing no device.
I have tried going into what settings I am able to enter and enable USB in any way possible but still to no joy.
I have looked at posts on here but not found anything that seems to help as yet or I have just not looked in correct place.
Please can someone help as this is frustrating. Thanks Stew.
If you entered fastboot already try "fastboot devices" instead of adb
Did you go into about phone and tap the "build number" 7 times to enable developer options? If so you should be able to access and enable USB debugging

Hi, I'm trying to unlock my phone so I can install Kali Linux on my A466BG. I've read a lot on the web but came to a problem. I've got Android SDK on my PC and installed platform-tools. My device shows up after entering "adb devices." I've enabled developer mode and usb debugging and OEM unlocking. My problem is...I can't unlock the bootloader and use fastboot. After pressing power and up volume I get into the menu (and I actually reset my phone to factory settings so I'll have more space) but I can't find bootloader. My phone shows up fine on my PC and under devices, but when I switch to the other menu (with reset options) it doesn't show up anymore. Not even under "adb devices." I tried entering "adb reboot-bootloader" but it just restarts and goes to the normal android phone screen. I tried "fastboot -i 0x1bbb oem device-info" and it says "waiting for device." I'm not sure how to boot into fastboot and unlock my bootloader. Or why my phone doesn't show up on my PC after pressing power and up volume. Please reply with instructions. Thank you
Hi, me again. I found a video on YouTube on how to install Kali Nethunter on Android phones. I got it and now I'm installing Metasploit. It's just the command line but that should work. Check You Tube on "Nethunter without root" if you want to know. Thanks
I'm back...Not satisfied with Nethunter on Termux. I would like to know how to root the phone and install Kali. Can anyone look at the above question and reply with how to root my Alcatel A466BG? I'll check back tomorrow. Thanks in advance!
Yes, I have searched the whole forum and after finding mixed answers I decided to post a question myself. I have used the Huawei Bootloader Unlock app from the Play Store in a P10 Lite and it worked fine but it says P20 is not supported. I have read on methods like disassembling the device but that's out of my range. So the question here is: Is there ANY way (apart from the disassembling one) to unlock the bootloader?
Thanks.

I asked DC_Unlocker Support if they could Unlock my Bootloader on my P10Lite with android 8 ! And they told me after Android 8, and Emui 5+ the P10Lite Devices aren't Supported now.
If their would be a Way or if anyone has an other Idea... DLoad, Flashing Roms Rollback didn't worked for me.
But i would really like to try other Ways if their would be a Chance for a Working Way to Rollback on Android 7. Couse than DC-Unlocker would Work and could Unlock the Bootloader and Root the Phone, Flash TWRP and Doing much other things.

I'd love to know... I have my unlock code, but I have no idea how to use it. I got my code from Huawei before they stopped providing them.

First of all, enable the Developer Option
1. To Enable the Developer Option, Go to your Settings –> System -> About Phone -> Now Tap on the Build Number 7-8 Times until you see a toast message “Developer option enabled“
2. Now go to Developer optiosn in the settings and Enable OEM unlock
3. Download Minimal ADB and Fastboot
4. Turn off your phone and Press Volume Up and Power button simultaneously to open Fastboot mode or enter the command [to enter command, you need to connect your phone to PC using USB Cable]
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
5. now unlock your device’s bootloader with this command line.
Code:
fastboot oem unlock *****************
You need to replace the ****** with the unique unlock code.
Once it is done, you can reboot your phone. Now you can install TWRP Recovery, Custom Kernel, Root or even install Custom ROM. Enjoy!

Hey, I'm pretty new to this way of customizing my phone (adb, root, roms etc), and I'm trying to root my phone with Magisk. I have a patched boot.img, my bootloader is allowed to be unlocked and I'm doing exactly what the root guide says (https://www.mobilewithdrivers.com/magisk-root/blu-g60-64gb-3gb-ram) but it wont work, I keep getting different errors and I see all my fellow droid users so happy with their rooted devices, I want to root mine too. So what I'm asking is; Can someone with an actual brain (Mine wont work) to try and help me out or walk me through step-by-step?
Thanks for reading!
Some of the issues I have:
"adb reboot booter" and "fastboot reboot bootloader" both reboot the device but in the top left corner it says "fastboot mode" and just freezes, when I do any command it just says "device null" but when I reconnect the USB cable, it just powers off.
"fastboot flashing unlock" results in "FAILED (remote: Not implemet.)" Yes, spelt like that.
"fastboot oem unlock" says, unkown cmd...
Wrong driver in use. Use the one provided by BLU suitable to your phone.
i couldnt find any drivers for the exact device, only google ones...
any ideas?
If you have a mac, you could try that. They usually don't require drivers.
