Bootloader still locked after 'unlocking' - General Questions and Answers

Hey guys
I have an issue where I tick the option in developer settings (oem unlocking) to unlock bootloader. Later I've checked on my pc if it's unlocked (fastboot getvar all) what I get is
<bootloader> unlocked: no (basically still locked)
Please help.
Thanks

That option in developer settings doesn't actually unlock the bootloader; it just allows it.

Stuck after unlocking bootloader?

Hi everyone,
Today I decided to root my Mate 9.
I started out with turning 'OEM unlock' on and usb debugging. With ADB installed and the huawei drivers, I began to unlock my bootloader. On the 'EMUI Huawei' homepage I filled out my device details and obtained an unlock code. I opened ADB and checked with 'adb devices' if my device was there. It was. So I continued with typing 'adb reboot bootlader'. After that I typed 'fastboot devices'. My device was still showing up. I typed 'fastboot oem unlock CODE (with the code). On my screen I pressed 'Yes'. Bootloader unlocked.
After this step I tried to flash twrp with the command 'fastboot flash recovery xxxx.img'. I couldn't continue because every adb/fastboot command keeps failing (remote: command not allowed). Now when I boot up my phone it shows 'your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted'. Phone=unlocked, FRP=locked. I can't do anything.
Device: Mate 9 L29C432B198
What did I do wrong or what did I missed? :crying:
I had this issue at first to had to redownload the original rom via the phone recovery this will fix the frp lock then u have to unlock and flash twrp 3.1.01 that is linked in the threads on here
Did it format after it unlocked?
You can try fastboot oem relock UNLOCKCODE
Then go to Settings -> Dev options -> enable OEM Unlocking
Then unlock again.
It probably will fail though if FRP is locked, but worth a shot.
Edit: It's supposed to say
PHONE Unlocked FRP Unlock

Oneplus 7 pro GM1915 Unlocked / but cannot unlock boot loader?

Hi Experts,
I just bought an unlocked OnePlus 7 pro.
I confirmed that it is unlocked. If I go into settings, wi-fi & internet, Advance (Network Unlock) ==> It says the following "This mobile device is permanently unlocked and can be used with any carrier!".
So now, I turn on the developer mode, USB debugging, OEM Unlocking, and boot into Boot Loader mode.
In boot loader mode, I see at the bottom of the screen that it is locked.
Now I try the following command from my machine (connected via USB to the device) ==> "fastboot oem unlock"
I get the following error ==> "FAILED (remote: 'Please flash unlock token first.')"
So what am I doing wrong?
OR is it that even if it is SIM unlocked, I still need another UNLOCK for boot loader?
I saw the method to request it from T-Mobile via OnePlus website,
But my question is if it is already carrier unlocked, do I still need that "bin" file for boot loader unlock?
If that is true, then I suppose I have to request it, wait 7 days right?
Is there any way to do this, without this craziness?
Use the msmtool here. If you haven't already.

How do I unlock bootloader of a android device without enabling oem unlocking option in settings?

How do I unlock bootloader of a android device without enable oem unlocking option in settings?
I installed twrp in my device and accidentally locked the bootloader.
Now I am stuck in a bootloop. So I think if I unlock the bootloader and flash the stock recovery so my device will unbrick.
So how I unlock bootloader without enabling oem unlocking option in settings..?

MSMDownloadTool messed up my phone

Used MSMDT to reset to TMO firmware on KB2007 (OnePlus 8T) and now bootloader is locked and unlock token doesn't work again "FAILED (remote: 'Error - Verify Failed ! (4:-2)')" and my bootloader is permanently locked. Any help would be appreciated.
The MSM Tool returns the device to the way it was when you took it out of the box and booted it for the first time. Do you have USB Debugging enabled in Developer Options? You only need the token once. Have you tried using ADB to unlock the bootloader?
I checked oem unlock in the settings, and then tried to flash twrp and got an error saying the device was locked, tried fastboot oem unlock, and it told me to flash the unlock token, but it won't accept the token.
Try requesting another through OnePlus Support then.
