[Q] CANNOT UNLOCK BOOTLOADER USING htcdev.com

i have registered on htcdev.com.
i followed the steps to the point where i had to execute the fastboot file to get an identifier token using a cmd command.
for some reason it say "waiting for device"
it has been like that for hours.
tried it about 3 times. I had a problem with rebooting into bootloader using VOLUME DOWN + POWER button so i ised abd and it worked
exact command i typed was "fastboot oem get_identifier_token"
PLEASE HELP ME
You don't have the right drivers for fastboot, it seems.
Find a guide and install them.
I always run ADB devices or fastboot devices first to check that I'm connected to the phone, before running any other commands.

fastboot cannot unlock bootloader

Hi,
I got into a frustrating situation, I installed Oneplus OTA update after that phone is stuck in bootloop, only thing I can access is fastboot, after reading many articles, I found that unlocking bootloader can fix my problem.
But unlocking bootloader has become worst nightmare in OnePlus one, when I run # sudo fastboot oem unlock, it will reboot phone and goes into 1+ logo, then I reboot the phone again boot into bootloader and situation is still the same bootloader is still locked.
I also tried OnePlus toolkit, onplus toolbox and oneplus tool for linux, nothing is unlocking the bootloader.
Phone is not enabled for adb (debugging mode).
adb shows "offline" mode while phone in bootloop logo.
is there any way I can atleast force the phone to unlock boot, any help is appreciated?
I am a linux user, but I aslo tried in windows, samething.
Thanks
I think you need to sit down and re-read the guide on how to unlock your bootloader because you're not having a good understanding on what you're supposed to do.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2788632 Read that thread and adjust accordingly to Linux unless you do it on a Windows-based machine.

Hi,
Thanks for reply, I have followed the complete guide to unlock bootloader, I updated the android sdk to the latest with android drivers.
Find the attachment how I have done that, but still the bootloader is locked.
In device status it shows that device temperted: true, is there any way I can change that to false using fastboot command?,
maybe that is the thing preventing me to unlock the bootloader.
Your help is appreciated.
Thanks
Dani
I only used 15 second adb installer on my PC for adb drivers. That way I don't copy paste files into SDK folder.
Anyways fastboot OEM device-info gives back tamper true and what is the other flag?
Make sure u don't put in typo like your op "ulock" lol fastboot OEM unlock should bring up wipe options on your phone :s

Hi ek,
screen shots are attached with the reply to zephiK's message (all flags can been seen), however, fastboot oem unlock doesnt bring me wipe option (though I am ok to wipe).

After the fastboot OEM unlock command look at the phone, that is where the wipe stuff appears. Or it should.

[UNTESTED] Bootloader Unlock On Nokia 5.1 Plus

Hey guys,
I think I found a way to unlock the bootloader on the Nokia 5.1 Plus. I didn't do it yet, but can someone please try it and see if it works?
Instructions:
1. Boot into recovery. I made a guide on how to do that in case you don't know how. Here's the link:https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-x5/how-to/guide-how-to-access-recovery-global-t4054561
2. Select reboot to bootloader.
3. Run fastboot oem unlock from adb terminal and see if anything happens.
PS. Running adb reboot fastboot from pc doesn't work-the phone just restarts-but rebooting to bootloader option from recovery actually gets it to fastboot mode.
If it works please tell me in a reply.

Hey don't post guides for other if you don't know what it means, You will get other people phones bricked.
FYI Nokia phones requires permission to unlock bootloader.
adb oem unlock doesn't work now a days for most of the phones as you know many companies has made rooting and changing roms difficult. (excluding OnePlus and Pixel).

For me it gave an error (FAILED (remote: unknown command)), where
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock
gave me an error on the device asking me if I wanted to unlock flashing or to cancel. I don't know if this helps anyone anything but it seems to have worked because if I run
Code:
fastboot flashing get_unlock_ability
I get the message (bootloader) unlock_ability = 1

Sure it will work with subject device?

Pc can't communicate when in bootloader(tried everything)....

I just purchased a OnePlus Nord N10 5G (BE2026)
Originally it was running OxygenOs 10.x.x.x
Following guides from oneplus website and here on XDA I was able to successfully unlock the bootloader and of course ADB worked fine as well as Fastboot in the bootloader etc...
After unlocking the bootloader I realized that OxygenOs 11.0.2.BE86AA was available via OTA. Which is now what the phone is currently running.
***MAIN ISSUE***
after unlocking the bootloader in order to gain root access via TWRP and Magisk my PC fails to find any devices while the phone is in Fastboot mode... ADB still works just fine but as soon as I run "adb reboot bootloader" or boot to bootloader via buttons the PC will not detect the phone any longer while in the bootloader or Fastboot mode...
I have triple checked that:
SDK USB drivers
ONEPLUS USB DRIVERS
Windows Universal USB drivers
USB Debugging
OEM Unlocking
PC is granted developer access
newest version of ADB & Fastboot
and everything else I can find on this issue searching Google & XDA for the past 3 days
* one issue that I found strange, only when the phone was booted into the bootloader Windows device manager showed Android as an unknown device. Which I could only solve by using Zadig and installing Winusb driver... but still running "fastboot devices" while phone is in bootloader / Fastboot mode still shows no devices....
I've been trying to solve this about 4 days now scouring the internet for any information I could find and nothing seems to work. But everything worked just fine before I unlocked the bootloader / flashed OxygenOs 11 via OTA and now windows to see the phone while in the bootloader....
When phone is got booted into bootloader / fastboot mode then phone can't get seen / accessed by ADB. Point.

@jwoegerbauer not entirely sure what you are trying to imply with your message...
If you are trying to point out that ADB doesn't work in bootloader / fastboot mode, I am completely aware of this. And never mentioned otherwise in my original message.
With my phone booted up into Android
And I run "adb fastboot bootloader" the phone will reboot into bootloader mode but my PC still shows waiting for devices... Or if I boot into bootloader / fastboot mode manually and run “fastboot devices" it shows no connected devices. And no fastboot Commands work either... I am not trying to run ADB Commands in fastboot mode.
AFAIK starting with Android 10 the command sequence should be as this
Code:
adb devices
adb reboot fastboot
fastboot reboot fastboot
fastboot devices
...
fastboot reboot
because fastbootd got moved to Android's userspace.

Enabling OEM Unlock in Developer options doesn't unlock the bootlader, it simply prepares the bootloader to get unlocked via fastboot command.

Only I have a small problem I don't unlock my bootloader via fastboot when it doesn't work :/ It immediately jumps to my system when I boot fastboot, even with a command like ,,adb reboot fastboot"

I have new thread, where i am writing all info :/ https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/zte-blade-a7-2019-fastboot-mode-missing.4462035/
I don't know if you are still interested in accessing Fastboot but you can access it using a specific firmware version.
Still, let me tell you that unlocking the bootloader is virtually impossible. Since the well-known generic method doesn't work for the SoC SC9863A, you need to have a special Fastboot's program version and a dedicated private key that only they provide.... and I emphasize the word "dedicated" since apparently ZTE did not use a generic key to sign their ROMS. At least on this device.
Unless they decide to release the key or give support to unlocking the bootloader, all we can do is wait for them to change their minds. Because they don't want to provide it. I know because I tried to order it several times.
