For an easy way to unlock & root your X2 here are the steps you need to take. This has been requested by a number of you so here it goes:
1) Unlock your bootloader. There are three steps you can take. The first two are free. The third method requires you to pay a few dollars but it works and is the fastest way. I would highly recommended this method. This is confirmed working on all models.
Option 1: Send an email to [email protected] Email them the following. They usually email you back and tell you to do option 2 or never email you back:
Hello. I keep getting an error when trying to unlock my phone on the unlock page.
Model: GEM-703L (Or whatever model you have)
Serial: Put in your phones serial number here. (You get this in About phone, Status)
IMEI: Put in your phones IMEI number here. (You get this in About phone, Status, it's IMEI1)
Product ID: (Go into your phone dialer and dial *#*#1357946#*#* and it will give you your Product ID)
Thank you for your help
(Your name here)
Option 2: Make a Huawei ID on your phone and stay signed in for 14 days and then go online to unlock your bootloader and it should work on the website.
Option 3: If you want to unlock your phone immediately and don't mind paying a few dollars this is the best and easiest way. Thanks to kpcheang2 for the original information. Visit here:
https://www.dc-unlocker.com/how-to-read-huawei-bootloader-unlock-code
- Download the DC Unlocker Software
- On their site buy 4 credits. https://www.dc-unlocker.com/buy I used PayPal. It cost me around $4.38 USD.
- Follow the instructions in their tutorial. Make sure you put the phone in Manufacture Mode. Choose "Read Bootloader Code" in DC-Unlocker to get your bootloader code.
- Put your phone in bootloader mode (plug into the computer and hold in power and volume down with the phone off) and do a fastboot oem unlock xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx where x is your bootloader unlock code the DC Unlocker program gave you.
2) Download TWRP recovery from here if you're already on Android 5.1.1
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862716585
2b) Download this TWRP if you're on Android 5.0 (Now in English!)
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767151055
Put your phone into Bootloader Mode and fastboot flash the TWRP recovery file you downloaded. (extract the img file from the rar file first) I'm not gonna go over how to use Fastboot here as there are many guides on many different websites on how to use it. Then do a fastboot reboot. When your phone reboots shut it back down and then hold in volume up and power until it turns on and keep holding in volume up until the phone boots into TWRP recovery.
3) Root your phone.
In TWRP flash SuperSU:
After flashing, reboot your phone and you will be rooted. If you want to manually upgrade to a specific Huawei build or flash back to stock, flash one of my modded Kangvip ROMS or visit bark1234's or eenapps thread for the downloads and instructions. Thanks to bark1234 and eennap for their threads and downloads.
Still nothing
So I've been trying to root since I was able to unlock my bootloader, which I was able to do from the website method.
I could not get adb to work with the other method listed on here.
Now with fastboot, my device is identified per the fastboot devices
I am able to run command fastboot flash recovery twrp_cn.img and it looks successful
so I restart and shut down
hold vol up and power and it vibrates and restarts and vibrates and restarts.....
I go back and flash the default recovey and am able to access this with the vol up and power, but cannot get to the twrp recovery. I have tried flashing a couple of versions and no custom recovery can I boot to.
Any help would be appreciated.

What model are you using? Also, what are you on, B106? When you boot into TWRP, I'm sure you already know this but make sure there is no cable plugged into the phone. Mine vibrates once after installing TWRP but I remain holding in volume up and it boots into TWRP the second time.

If you want, send me a link to that version of TWRP and I'll add it to the OP.
I wrote to [email protected] several times but they did not reply.
I do not understand why.

I don't know why they aren't responding to you. I'm starting to worry that when my new X2 comes (I ordered a second one) they won't respond to me either. I'm sure there will be a workaround.
I've been e-mailing them for almost two months and I haven't received one reply from them. I have the 703L and I've tried their website over and over with Google Translate's help. I always get the same error about the log books not being older than 14 days. I just can't get anywhere with Huawei and it's super frustrating that they don't support the U.S. that well.
What I did
Just signed up for the huawei cloud service. And after 14 days I was able to get the unlock code. Worked first time after trying the email way and waiting.

How were you able to sign in to the cloud service, every time I try I get that the Network is not available.
I went to this page with chrome http://www.emui.com/plugin.php?id=unlock&mod=detail and let it translate for me. It took mrme to a login page and I bit the bullet and signed up. 14 days later I got my unlock code from the same page.
Can anyone confirm that dual sim works after using this root method. When i use boot.img root method, dual sim stops working.
Thanks in advance guys.

I'm not rooted on the new X2 yet. I'm waiting for my unlock code. If I were rooted I'd let you know.
Updated the OP with a link to unlock your bootloader. It worked for me.

I can use new OP to succesfully unlock my phone.
Does anyone know if these instructions would work on the Mediapad M2? They both use the same SoC and the display resolution is the same, though the M2 is 8" and the X2 is 7". The M2 ships with Lollipop 5.1 instead of 5.0, but I don't know if that makes any difference here.

DC Unlocker should work to unlock your bootloader but I'm not sure about everything else. I would imagine if you could find a build of TWRP for the M2 you can use the root method in the OP and it should work.

I have been trying to look, but I have yet to find TWRP for M2. I guess it's just too new yet and/or not popular enough to have garnered much support from the community. Thanks anyways, I'll just proceed with unlocking the bootloader for now.

Yes, your bootloader is locked.. try again via fastboot to unlock it.
You'll need the original key when you are trying it
the Command is something like "fastboot oem unlock *key*".
I know that. Have you seen my problem?? but, thank you anyway! I need to no why i get "wrong password" and what means "frp unlock".

I tried it again. It doesn't work fu****g huawei...
I have taken 4 picures when i tried it. Can you find an issue? I don't think that i have made something wrong...
Thank you
I've had the same problem and it turned out that the first bootloader code i used ( with DC unlocker) is different from the one i got on the Huawei website.
So what i did eventually was to pay for the DC unlocker again.
I also downgraded back to MM, because i did not manually relock the bootloader before updating to N, which apparently locks the bootloader in a different way.
So I suggest dowgrading to MM and unlocking there plus relocking it before updating again,
IF you are sure you have the right / original bootloader code you used before,
or
use a 3rd party tool like DC unlocker to get the code.
You might have to downgrade to MM as well with this method . Not sure
Edit: Fyi, never post your IMEI online

It should either be an exe somewhere or just a bat file.
This tool does the same thing as a command window in the sense of unlocking the bootloader.
As far as I know it won't help with your problem.
Frp ( Factory reset protection) requires you to sign with your google account if enabled or you can't use the phone. ( Theoretically that is, I'm i noob myself so no idea)
But it was "locked" ( same as in your pics that is ) for me as well anf I didn't have a problem with it.

Safety is the enemy of freedom!! -.- Sounds very complicated! (sorry for my bad english). So, i was on android 6.1 and unlocked and rooted it. Than had my problems with root again (maybe the wrong supersu file, or something) Then i have downloaded update.app from hihonor and installed it from the external sd card and everything is working fine on my phone. but i can not unlock it. maybe i have the wrong software for my location ore something like that?
FRP unlock means "You have to unlock"? if its unlocked there will be "FRP unlocked"? i am right?
Maybe i should try the whole procedure from beginning. rollback, update etc.. and then try to unlock. or should i contact huawei?
Thank you and a nice evening *cheers* ^^

So finally after reading all posts , plz do downgrade to mm and try to unlock
I have the same trouble, I obtained my unlock key from huawei (I'm not going to give my imei to someone else), but I get wrong password.
How can I downgrade to MM? I'm on linux, so I cannot use that multitool (also, I prefer to make thing manually).
Thank you!

For downgrade you need a rollback package..
What is your model number and build number??
I have an honor FRD-L09 with build FRD-L09C432B394
I understood that I nned to rollback to emui 4.1 (android MM), then unlock, but after this step I cannot receive ota's so how can I return back to Nougat stock? And you have a trusted download for the needed packages?
I just want to use Titanium Backup to restore all my stuff... and some modifications (pixel launcher, magisk with some modules, viper audio, ad block, something this simple), nothing usually complex!
Thank you!

For downgrade process you don't need to unlock bootloader..when you downgrade you will receive OTA updates..
To use TB you need root..which is required unlock bootloader..
Why you want to go back to MM BTW??

Hi,
I have a single sim MATE 9 MHA-L09
I was on NRD90M Test Keys Built, so wanted to flash stock firmware
so in order to get stock tried changing OEM info to c432(my previous built) using HWOTA (Update.bat)
i don't know what went wrong, on computer it says SUCCESS but checked it in HUAWEI MULTI TOOL
it shows
Found Phone : MHA-L09
Model : Huawei phone in fastboot mode
Serial NR. : UGM0217216001969
Firmware : NRD90M test-keys
Now am unable to recover using dload( Gives error at 5% )
No luck using HuaweiUpdateExtracter and HuaweiMultiTool as it ask to unlock my bootloader
Don't want to use FUNKYHUAWEI as it charges money and does not guarantee UNBRICK.
Phone is stuck on erecovery which shows update using wifi but doesn't detect anything end up with reboot and shutdown.
IS there any way i could be able to get product id so that i can unlock bootloader and proceed with flashing?
Any other way to recover my phone?

Any help would be much appreciated
Thank You in advance.

If you are sure about whether your partitions are set up for Android N or Android O and use the correct update.app file, FHUnbrickFlashTool will get it booting again for you. The lack of guarantee is because a percentage of people use the wrong update.app file, and destroy their phones in the process.
If you rebrand you need to flash firmware twice in HWOTA. First select "rebrand", after this you need to unlock bootloader again and run HWOTA, but select "same brand update".

You can use this tool: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/help/how-to-product-id-bricked-p9-t3561156
Direct link to tool: http://rootjunkysdl.com/files/?dir=Huawei P8 Lite (Download Huawei Product ID Generator.exe)
Follow instructions in first link. I have tested and it generates a valid Product ID, I even tested on huaweis site to get my unlock code (which matches the one I get using my own Product ID)
Just make sure you follow instructions.
Edit: To get serial no, just boot to fastboot and use cmd to enter command fastboot devices
the number to the left is your serial no.
In my case:
C:\Windows\System32>fastboot devices
AHK0217111000149 fastboot
AHK0217111000149 is my serial no.
Edit 2: Oh, you had serial no already. I'll leave it in case anyone else finds this.

Are you selecting Huawei Y300-0100 in the generator? It doesn't work with any other model. And then you have to select "before emui 5" on the emui website and select phone as Y300-0100.
And try both IMEI.
If youre willing you could PM me your IMEI later and I'll try. I'm at work but home in about 6-7 hours.
If CMD states ur bootloader is already unlocked, u could be flashing to the wrong partition.. Are u using android N or O. Android O uses the updated twrp version so u will need to flash that version to the correct partition then u be able to boot to twrp and load ur OS

I've experienced it saying it's unlocked, but it's actually not. Have to fastboot oem relock xxxxxx
Then fastboot oem unlock xxxxxx
Xxxxx= password.
But one would need their unlock code for this.

Are you selecting Huawei Y300-0100 in the generator? It doesn't work with any other model. And then you have to select "before emui 5" on the emui website and select phone as Y300-0100.
And try both IMEI.
If youre willing you could PM me your IMEI later and I'll try. I'm at work but home in about 6-7 hours.

Hmm. That's the one I tried from your other thread. Do you still have the mate 9 box? Could you check Serial number on it?
I read somewhere that the serial number fastboot shows might not always be correct.

you have to get into TWRP , make a back up of the OEM infos (on ur sdcard) then download the correct c432 oem infos , copy then to replace previous saved oem from twrp you ve done earlier ... then run htwoa and - if not enough - do the way as suggested by Ante0 (twice hwota / change brand for 432 then same brand)

If you rebrand you need to flash firmware twice in HWOTA. First select "rebrand", after this you need to unlock bootloader again and run HWOTA, but select "same brand update".

Hi thanks for your reply,
I have all the information IMEI, Sno, but am unable to get product id:crying::crying: in order to unlock boot loader
in fastboot CMD it says its already bootloader unlocked but unable to flash twrp or boot up the device.
Is there any way to get product id except dialer method?

https://imei24.com/ give you product ID. just paste it your IMEI number.
Update> Currently I recommend this method only for unbrick, if you are going to change regions or install stock use this new method: Here
>> Need bootloader unlocked <<
If you want to unbrick or flash stock, you must download the package corresponding to your device and RUI version
1. Download the .zip package and extract the .ofp file
Packages:IndiaRUI 2.0 Android 11 A.07: DownloadRUI 3.0 Android 12 C.03: Download---------------EuropeRUI 2.0 Android 11 A.06: DownloadRUI 3.0 Android 12 C.02: Download---------------ChinaRUI 2.0 Android 11 A.06: Download---------------Russia, Middle East, Africa, Latin America, and other regionsRUI 2.0 Android 11 A.02: DownloadRUI 3.0 Android 12 C.02: Download---------------
2. Download and Install OppoRealme-OFP-Flash Tool: Here
3. Place the extracted .ofp file in the same folder as the program.
4. Run OppoRealme-OFP-Flash
5. When running if you have placed only one .ofp file in the folder it will automatically select it.
6. Choose the region you want to install, if you don't know you can search on google country code, or go in automatic mode by adb (if your cell phone isn't bricked).
7. Then it will ask if you want to keep some partitions (if you're doing it for bootloader lock you can't keep any).
8. Accept the terms and then plug the device into fastboot mode.
9. Done!
Note: after this process if you want to lock the bootloader, restart again in fastboot mode and type the command "fastboot flashing lock"
At last! Thank you! Will try it as soon as I have some free time to do it!
One quick question please. So let's say I want to go from Europe to India rom. I need to unlock bootloader and start the process you described. Do I need to take backup any partition in order not to lose IMEI or something? And after flashing to relock bootloader only type "fastbook flashing lock"? Some people were saying there is no official method to relock the bootloader again that's why I'm asking.

almost that, you don't lose the imei, you lock the bootloader I've already tested and proven it, but I don't recommend doing it without the rom that comes on your device.if you want to test, but it can happen hardbrick.

You mean lock the bootloader with the rom that my device has already? So if it's europe it has to stay europe and do the lock if I understand correctly.

That's right, I don't know if blocking with a system from another region would work, it could even work, but it's risky to test, only if you have 10usd to pay for the hard unbrick.

Listen, the thing is that I wouldn't even bother to test another rom. I already have made a thread here asking for some help because I have problem with incoming caller ID on 4G/5G with VoLTE enabled. Since no solution has been found, even after contacting Realme, the next thing to try was another (stock always) rom to see if it would work. If I would try to change rom I have to be VERY careful because there are absolutely NO service centers of Realme in my country. That's why I'm asking these questions. I want to know how safe is to "transfer" from another rom and if it is posible to return to my stock rom again with locked bootloader.

It's with my tool, it's totally safe, and it's easy to return to your region of origin, she has some protection so that nothing serious happened.

Thank you man. Totally appreciate your effort. Just to be clear one last time. You can do w/e test you want by changing roms/regions with unlocked BL and then after if you want to return your phone to what it was from factory you flash again your initial rom and lock BL.

correct
great work thank you
Sorry if I may ask for clearer steps. The steps is kinda vague like you did not mention anything that need to be prepared from the device. And, if we change to another region rom, do we get future OTA official update form realme? Thank you in advance.

Thanks for your reply. One more thing, for other region, does it come with Google? Mine was chinese rom and want to see if changing region will get Google service preinstalled. And, can you help me to check the Widevine level as well. Hope I'm not bothering you

I just successfully change my chinese rom to indian rom and thank god all google services are working fine. I will test everything first and will update here again. Thank you so much for coming with this!
Hi, im from europe and i have realme gt neo 2 europe variant. Just for information:
i unlocked bootloader, flashed chinese rom and locked bootloader again and everything worked like a charm.
No hardbrick.
PS. i relock bootloader because my bank accounts didnt worked with unlocked bootloader.
PSS. OTA updates works like a charm too on chinese rom.
