Hey guys, i have the following problem.
So I want to unlock the bootloader of my Moto G but to do that I must use USB debugging. But if I use the command "adb devices" it gets always shown as offline. So I did a little research and found out, that since 4.4.2 a Pop-Up should show up to allow USB debugging with the connected PC.
Problem is this Pop-Up won't show up...
Could you please help me. I couldn't find a solution. Really frustating
Have you enabled USB debugging in Developer Options in settings?

For my XT1031, I had to use the Motorola USB drivers for ADB to work, and Kush's Universal ADB drivers for Fastboot to work.
And if you are using Windows 8/8.1, then you have to disable to forced signature verification in order to install the Universal ADB drivers.
Also, for ADB to work in Windows, I had to set the phone's USB computer connection to Camera (PTP), instead of Media Device.
I'm using Motorolas Drivers. I downloaded them from the official website.
My ADB is also on the latest version (1.0.3.1). Also tried to factory reset my phone. Nothing works, the pop-up wont show up...

Dude, you need to follow the instructions step by step and provide more info about what's going on.
1. Is your "Enable ADB debugging" enabled? You said yes.. does your phone show "Android debugging enabled" icon when you plug it into your computer? If not, you don't have it enabled !
2. If you see the notification, go to Device Manager (hope you are using Windows, or I can't really help you), then can you find your device there? If the USB drivers are installed correctly, then you should see "Android Device" then a "Motorola ADB Interface" inside it. If not, you will see a yellow exclamation with something like "Motorola device"..
3. Did you change your phone's USB computer connection to Camera (PTP)??
If adb says that the device is "offline" but you see its ID, then you didnt authorize (on the phone) the pc to access USB Debugging, its a new feature of 4.4.When you connect your phone, a prompt should appear (check the status bar if it doesnt), saying a computers with RSA Key XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX requested access to USB Debugging.
good luck
First of thanks for your help, much appreciated
1. Yes I have USB debugging enabled. If I plug in my Moto G a icon appears in the Notification-Center which says "USB debugging activated"
2. Yes if I go into the Device Manager I can see Android Device
3. Yes I ded change my USB-Setting to PTP
Any other ideas ?

Actually you do not need adb to unlock the bootloader only mfastboot which does not need adb to work all you do is boot into the bootloader then follow this

As mentioned above (first post of the thread) I know that I gotta allow my PC to connect properly to the phone. But the problem is that pop-up thingy wont show up. So I'm not able to allow USB debugging for my PC...

Everytime I try to do this i get the errormessage, that those commands or not known even if I'm at the right folder with the fastboot.exe within it. Because of that I thought I would need the connection to be online (I'm kinda new to all of this ).

Hmmm... so.. what do you see when you type "adb devices" ?
Also, in your Device Manager, is the Motorola ADB interface properly installed? (no issues)?
And yes, to unlock the bootloader you just need Fastboot... when you boot to Fastboot and type "fastboot devices" do you see anything?
Okay, I will Unlock my Bootloader tomorrow but I would like to fix this issue, because I might encounter it in the future :/

Well, are you sure you fastboot works?
If so, it's very weird why adb won't...
And yeah, ADB is very useful... if not lifesaving...
Okay I'm sure fastboot works, cause I just unlocked my phone. So got anyone any ideas how I could Allow USB debugging ? :/

Couldn't wait till tomorrow to unlock the bootloader huh?
Hmm... Did you use the Motorola USB drivers from the Motorola Device Manager 2.4.5?
And everything is properly installed in Device Manager? No devices with yellow exclamation?
And ADB devices shows no list of devices attached?
So weird...

You can revoke all authorized devices for adb access.The option is right below the USB Debugging switch in Developer Options.
Then reboot your moto g and try again.

Even if you revoke, you should see the device listed if you run "adb devices"...

If I use the 'ADB devices' command the ID of my device shows up but as already mentioned it's offline.

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
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!

Wow thanks! I'll get on that this weekend!
So I want to unlock my phone's bootloader to flash a custom ROM (I know how to), but whenever I open the unlock tool with the phone connected and in fastboot, it says phone not connected, any problem? I've been getting the 'invalid input' error before, I just uninstalled android stk to temporarily fix it, is that the problem? Or do I have to factory reset the phone?
It's running Android 9 MIUI 12.0.1 PEKMIXM

Absolutely. I con run ADB commands perfectly.
Did you try an older version of the unlock tool?

I tried the version that was released when the phone was released, but it didn't even have an option to unlock my phone, so I tried a third party app called XiaoMiTool V2, and it came so close to unlocking the phone, but it kept giving an error: Failed ADB connection.
Have you enabled both oem unlock and usb debugging in developer options? If you haven't do it now(the developer options are accessible from setting>about phone > all variables> click 7 times miui version and you can access that in settings>more settings)

If I didn't, how can I run ADB commands?? And yes, I did also turn on OEM unlocking, and associated Mi account with the device, though I did not wait the 7 days.
I have the same problem. I have waited more than 7 days actually. Any solution ? Thanks
