Has anyone been able to sim unlock the Bell Sensation?
Sites that have the code for T-Mobile Sensation don't seem to have it for the Bell version. I actually got the Bell Sensation 5 days back and been trying to unlock it since. If someone knows where to get it unlocked, please let me know! I know the code would be available shortly (hopefully soon, but I want to know if anyone has been successful and where)
These are the sites I've used and every one of them has been unsuccessful:
1. unlocking .com
2. gsmliberty .com
3. mobileincanada .com
4. htcimeiunlock .com
5. htcsimunlock .com(took my money, did not result in code and never refunded it back, I've contacted them 4 times and they never reply, its been like 3 days now, you might wanna be careful with these guys)
6. cellunlocker .net (I didn't try to unlock my sensation with these guys, but tried to unlock a different phone and they sent me the wrong code. I asked for a refund, they asked me to provide them video proof, i did that and its been 7 months no refund)
7. cellunlock .net (different site from cellunlocker)
I have checked on more websites that I can't remember at the moment.
This?
Hope it works...
What's the first IMEI digits?
Does Your HTC IMEI# Start With "3577790" or "3578410" or "3526660" or "3539230" or "3538330" or "3589910" or "3523140" ??? They can do it... supposedly.

Nope, my IMEI # Starts with 35644
I know this is off topic but can you confirm if your bell sensation has a camera lens flush to the casing, like it is not recessed. I was at the source looking at a dummy phone and it has a lens flush with the casing.
I am trying http://www.unlockallcellular.com right now... dunno if that will work
Please let us know how it goes. I'm gonna try theunlock.ca

oh god, i have a feeling for the next few weeks the sensation thread is going to be spammed hard by bell users having problems with their sensations :/
unlock codes will take a couple days for the BELL sensation, as bell is NOT a fan of their exclusive branded hardware going to other carriers, even if you buy off contract or in another store
But I can't wait a couple of days, I have to use it now!! Just kidding, was actually hoping I'd be able to unlock today, guess Ill have to wait. Hope we wont have to wait too long.

haha i hope so, cuz after its carrier unlocked, you still gotta wait for S-OFF, root and CWM
As soon as someone gets their Bell Sensation unlocked, let us know which site you used!

According to this ad on kijiji, it's unlockable...

I just emailed him, lets see what happens. He said he did 2 bell's yesterday successfully and one did not work.
Kijiji Guy can't do it for a week. If you know someone with a bell account they will do the unlock for $75 bucks, seems like the only option right now.

Did he say his unlock codes would be available in a week?
I've never actually owned a device on launch, so is that generally the rule? Unlock codes usually take up to a week to obtain?
Thanks for the info by the way.

cellunlocker .net has stolen my money before, I'd never use their service ever or recommend it to someone else.
No, no luck. They charged me for the unlock codes but refunded me within 2 hours with an email that said "Not Found".
They have noted on their website that their HTC codes only get updated once a week, so I guess we just gotta wait!
As many of you will know Huawei pulled the unlock bootloader site. People have since had mixed results emailing them directly for the code. I emailed them for the unlock code yesterday (11th June 2018) and recived the reply copied below.
It certainly clears some things up. Interestingly the bootloader site is back up, albeit for a limited time! You lave 60 days from 24th May before they stop the service! https://emui.huawei.com/en/unlock_detail
When you go to unlock via the link they give you this warning: Screenshot https://photos.app.goo.gl/2kcJ2J9gXWpwE8XN9
Personally I think it is a bad move on Huawei's part . If you've not unlocked bootloader and intend to do so I'd jump it it ASAP!
Thank you for contacting Huawei Customer Care.
In response, we would like to inform you that starting May 25th and until July 25th (for 2 months) – the EMUI website will get back the bootloader code search function, for products released before May 25th.
Starting July 25th 2018, the Huawei official policy (as per HQ decision) is to not offer bootloader codes to customers anymore in order to avoid issues that may appear due to ROM flashing, and thus maintain the user’s experience.
The website can be reached here to obtain the bootloader code : https://emui.huawei.com/
We hope this information should prove useful. Should any questions arise, feel free to contact us again.
We remain at your disposal for any other inquiries that you may have.
Best regards,
Ben

Oh I'll crawl back under the rock from which I came haha
Does *applying* for the code alone void the warranty? OR can I apply and receive a code, but only void the warrently the moment I unlock it?
Aye there's a few threads about this, I've got one myself.
And I agree with everything in your OP mate.
They'll probably in the future start allowing unlocks.
No one wants a locked down android phone and when it hits their pocket they'll know that.
Unfortunately for p20 pro owners the damage is done and the lack of ROMs is testament to that.
Perhaps if they'd just released one damn variant without all the madness they've forced upon us there would be less problems flashing ROMs I mean look at Oneplus, they actually had twrp as a part of their official root method on their site for the longest time haha and here's Huawei putting their finger up to the people who've done more for Android than anyone.
Apparently we're only 1% of their customer base?
I promise you they'll lose more than 1% sales when the next flagship is released as there will be zero ROMs on here when it does and none of the enthusiastic users here to create a buzz about it.
Beginning of the end and the birth of another Apple.
They'll learn, just like HTC did, if a little late.
Hi everyone,
This is my first post here but I have been swimming through your posts since ever I think
I have a Chinese P20 Pro (CLT-AL01) and I have been trying to obtain the code from the EMUI webpage but no success. I entered all the info that demands but it doesn't give back the code. It shows a message like if you have any problem with the unlocking process just contact us. Maybe it's because the phone is Chinese? Happened to someone?
I contacted them via huawei email today, I will wait a few days and I'll see.
Btw I am trying to rebrand it to the EU version.

Dear xxxx,
Thank you for contacting Huawei Support.
We are unable to send boot loader code via email and can only be obtained through our website.
If you would want to unlock your phone, you should meet the following conditions:
1. Please register your Huawei ID in our official website xxxxxxxx on your phone.
2. Log in and logout your Huawei ID continuously for 14 days.
3. Each Huawei ID should not apply for the unlock code more than fifth time within 6 months.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I think the conditions are a bit demanding idk, I am thinking about returning the phone asap. What do you guys think?
That's rubbish, this is reply I got regarding unlock code
Thank you for contacting Huawei Support UK.
In response to your question, we inform that requesting the bootloader will not void the warranty, If you use it, then yes the phone will not have warranty anymore.
Should you require the code, please provide us with the following details:
Device model:
Serial number:
IMEI:
Product ID - dialing *#*#1357946#*#*. If not available, the invoice should be attached.
Reason for the unlock code:
We are looking forward for your reply and let us know if you have any other questions.

They are making excuses for not giving me the unlock. The worst thing is that I registered the huawei account on the phone yesterday, so in 14 days it will be July 24th and that day they will stop giving the code
Huh?
Can't you just log into the EMUI-Site from the first post and request your code there? It worked for my device a few weeks ago. It was quick and easy.
@walkerx Huawei Support Germany insists that even requesting the code voids the warranty. Of course this is bull and not even legal, but whatever floats their boat I guess.

I got that email response from their UK Helpdesk and told them the reasons for it was due to the lack of updates for the devices, incompatibility with certain apps and that they allow UK network operators to take over your devices even when purchased as sim-free, unlocked out of contract and unless they change their attitude towards the UK users and not reverse the unlocking bootloader decision then I will no longer purchase another Huawei device.
I may not unlock until after I swap phones to another model, but I always want that option and do not agree with it being locked down.
I'm also thinking of logging a UK petition online to prevent network operators in the UK from taking control off our devices and re-branding them and deciding whether or not and when we should get updates as these should be left to google or the manufacturers not the network provider. Also like with Apple devices wifi calling features should be standard and work for all networks not just limited and they should not require a specific firmware supplied by the operator for these to work - should be done by network setting only
I'm totally with you on this point. Fortunately, in Germany, most (not all!) providers don't force any unnecessary crap on an unlocked device and don't mess with the firmware. Some do, however.
I would also prefer to be able to unlock an reflash whenever I want to, or get rid of the forced on G-Apps, or fully use tasker to control the device (which you need to be rooted for some certain things).

Hi folks,
So like many I am in the boat of wondering what Huawei's current future is and not wanting to wait around for any more bad news.
I have searched hi and low for a service that is actively providing bootloader unlock codes and have spoken to each and every one of them that I could find and all I have found are dead ends.
Logically speaking, these codes were being made/generated one of two ways.
1st - Someone who worked for Huawei was providing them and making money doing so.
2nd - There is indeed a way to generate them, with the right information.
The second seems to be the most logical answer truthfully, otherwise I could e-mail support and bribe someone lol. Anyways I refined my search to looking for bootloader code readers.
This came up - http s:// octoplusbox.com/en /products/huawei-tool/
( had to put weird spacing so that link would post, remove the spaces.)
Now if links are not allowed in here, then it is the Octoplus dongle that claims to be able to read bootloader codes for any Huawei device.
It claims to be able to
Supported Operations and Features*:
Read Info
Direct Unlock
Read Bootloader Code
Reset FRP
Reset Huawei ID
Factory Data Reset
Repair IMEI A/B
Repair Bluetooth MAC
Repair Wi-Fi MAC
Repair S/N
Repair Board S/N
Repair Vendor Code
Repair Country Code
I was wondering if anyone has encountered them? Has this worked? Its 90$ and truthfully if I knew it would work I would go for it, but I'm not dishing out that much money without knowing something.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

As an update!
I spoke with several authorized Huawei Service centers and they said no they cannot specifically because they were authorized by Huawei to repair phones and that they could not alter the phone in that way.
With that being said, I spoke to someone who was on the level about unlocking the bootloader, and he recommended I call a place locally.
Spoke with their software guy and he said yes they can do it. I am going in to try and will update once I find out if he is for real or not.

Bootloader unlocking from Huawei will not happen again unless they get hit financially, which so long as people keep buying locked down devices simply won't happen..couple that with the bans in place and honestly I can't see it..
As with the bootloader code cracking. I'd say it's possible but you probably need a key which generates it, not sure if they'll ever be available..
The vast majority of p20 pro owners have either accepted it or moved on.
Shame as it's not a bad device.

Basically lol, or they are hoping that the ban will fall through and things will calm down.
I will update once I find out if this guy really can do it.
Other perk may be that if Huawei releases their own OS, they may unlock the bootloader, in theory it would require to.
Here is to hoping.
I am curious if that guy unlocked your bootloader.

Well that was my question. I emailed them and have not heard back yet.
Something like that
It looks like the Octoplus Huawei Tool can't read bootloader code. I have checked https://octopusbox.com/eng/features/models but the CLT-series only support reset FRP lock. You can see this by hovering your mouse over (or tapping) the model.

Omg
Oh my god, such a suspense... Did you manage to get the unlock code ?
I am so desperate to find it. Hoped DC unlock client would manage to do so
but it failed pathetically.
Unfortunately for P20 Pro only "Reset FRP" feature is supported.
FunkyHuawei has now the Huawei bootloader unlock service available again.
Can it be trusted? Price is now 190 USD

Not so much the question of whether it can be trusted, but who the heck is going to shell-out 190usd just to get code?!

No point, the phone is hardly worth a free bootloader unlock as there is nothing you can do with it.

OnePlus 8 for me.
One thing to note though, if funky has unlock codes then others should too.
I have the direct number for someone who did have unlock codes so I'll reach out to him and see if he has any..prices are a lot lower..
There are still some decent ROMs for the P20 Pro, AOSIP, Lineage.
Which is more than enough for most people..
No idea what this would mean if you went to EMUI 10 though..
The chap I have seen says they haven't got codes so I would not recommend paying anything
He has said that they have had a lot of luck with unlocking the bootloader via a tool.

So now that the beans are out of the box, let's hear more, #1 does it need to be bootloader Unlocked or we can drop OP broken Unlock Token site and go straight to conversion?
#2 how does it work? Are you getting the OP OTA like the original international version?
#3 what's the ETA when it will be available for the public?

From my experience had to unl bl then cross flashed. And yes afterward local update is now in my settings and u was able to take latest OTA sent out afterward(11.0.2.3 I think)
But I think the reason it has not been released yet is bcuz the bl unl is still a little sketchy and needs more perfecting.
When I first read this thread I just wanted fellow users who were skeptical of getting the 8t(tmo) to not be held back bcuz of no chance of being able to achieve bl unl/crossflashing/root on tmo varient. I will find out when this will be published

You can't Bootloader Unlock without the stupid Token and you can't get the token since OP site is drunk, I wish this comes out pretty soon and we will be able to just avoid OP token site and just convert it into international version.

Is there anything I can do to help with the conversion testing. I have my phone SIM unlocked and OEM unlocking is available in my settings.
Here's the thing on converting Tmo to Intl
Yes it requires a bootloader unlock.
Yes it's possible to unlock the bootloader
Yes it can be done without a token (however this is very hacky and isn't anywhere near ready for public use)
Yes some people have it done for testing
No it's not public yet.
No I didn't find or make it
Theres a lot going into this right now with limited options of how to proceed with unlocking. That paired with no twrp makes things kind of a nightmare to deal with.
unfortunately I can't give an excess of information, as im only testing/developing, however I will confirm these things for you.

Just FYI, it seems OnePlus' token/unlock site is working now. Late last night I successfully submitted my token, and I believe a few others were able to do the same.
The thing is though, it says I know have to sit tight and wait one to two weeks for an email with the token...but I'll call this progress, none the less.

That it definitely does! T-Mobile also makes it easy to pay off early as well.
I managed to get Affirm, oneplus's financing lender, on the phone. I spent a good hour, advocating my case. I told them that I would have love to buy the phone outright, if I had the means. Rep said the underwriters make the final decision. I argued further and stated that if I knew what Affirm looked for in their lending criteria, I could make an educated business decision, still said no.
With that, went to TMobile, threw down my down payment.

BTW gang, I got my sim unlock (not bootloader, but sim unlock) done already. Bought my phone on November 1st and now it's sim unlocked. Just waiting for the unlock code from oneplus.
