I've seen that before. When you enable USB Debugging and OEM Unlock and try to reboot bootloader it still wont work. There has to be a way to get to the bootloader..

Nougat OEM Unlock

I received the 7.0 update yesterday (NRD90M.N920VVRUC3QB9).
I'm Developer Options, I can turn on OEM Unlock, which says "Allow Phone to be OEM Unlocked."
Any chance this means anything as far as root or unlock?
*Giving my hopes up.*

It was there before the update.

I know that toggle. But nothing happens when it's flipped o or off. So what you mean it doesn't work like everyone thinks?

Everyone wants to think it will do like it does in stock Android where you enable that and then fastboot oem unlock to unlock the bootloader

On Verizon that doesn't unlock the bootloader all it does is prevent the FRP problems when you do a factory reset.. If you factory reset with oem unlock off then you'll need the original Google account to get the phone running again after factory resetting but with oem unlock on you don't need the original Google account it's basically for security against theft and what @tylerlawhon said is also true.

Question How to unlock bootloader?

I just received my Flip3 (SM-F711U1) and would like to unlock my bootloader. However developer options is missing the OEM Unlock option. It's completely missing not just grayed out. I read a few articles about needed to change the system date but none of those guides changed anything. Can someone help?
Also, I attempted to call *#*#7378423*#*# to double checked that it wasn't already unlocked and I got a popup saying "Unabled to process the request."
Thank you.

I have no issue unlocking developer options. As my first post said the OEM Unlock option is missing from dev options.

Have you tried through fastboot? (fastboot oem unlock)

Oh, got you. Sorry!

As far as I'm aware samsung devices don't support fastboot. I did attempt to connect it in case I was wrong but was not able to get fastboot to recognize the device.

You can try directly unlock without ticking the oem unlock. By boot into download mode. The other thing is your device or carrier or country wont allow your flip 3 to be unlock. There last step you can try is clean flash via odin with your latest firmware.

I can get into download mode fine but don't know how to use that to unlock directly. Can you give more details?
I tried a clean flach with my latest firmware but it didn't change anything.
It's a US carrier unlocked version I bought directly from Samsung. CSC of XAA. Currently using a T-Mobile SIM.

If you had them enabled on your last phone and you restored from your Google backup, developer options will be enabled. Has happened on all of my phones since Android 9

They support bootloader unlock. samsung dont support using fastboot unlock or command at all

if you're in North America, Canada etc Qualcomm chips there do not support bootloader unlocking, at least the Samsung one's don't, not sure about other OEMs.

They used to, so there was always a possibility it returned.

I recently read this article on XDA about unlocking the boot loader on the Fold 3 which results in Samsung disabling the camera (WTH?), Is this a thing on the Flip3 too?

My device is rooted. I have always been able to find the OEM unlock option under developer options without any constraints.
My camera is NOT affected. I can still use it without any issues.
I have an European device (SM-F711B).
Hope this helps some of you to track down whether this is a location or carrier based problem.

Hey Redhatter,
Out of topic question, but are you getting Tmobile 5G just fine?

Question Any way to Unlock the Bootloader on the 2022 Moto Stylus 5G?

I Have been trying on the Motorola website and it says that the phone is ineligible to be unlocked when i put the Device ID on there site. I mean, why would the phone even have an OEM Unlock option if there was no way to unlock the bootloader? Just asking if anyone else has found a way around this?

Do you really have a moto edge+ 5g? And from ATT? And bootloader unlocked?
ATT doesn't sell your "BOOTLOADER UNLOCKABLE" MOTO EDGE+ 5G.
No single att branded Motorola phone is EVER eligible for official bootloader unlock.

If you want an unlocked bootloader you should only buy it directly from Motorola

Depends on who you bought it from. If you want an unlocked version always buy direct from manufacturer instead of a carrier or Amazon... They always Lock down anything they sell.

You can continue to claim you unlocked the bootloader of your att version moto g stylus 5g and call it a day.
att never sells MOTO Edge+ 5g. So either you don't actually own a moto edge+ 5g or you bought an unlocked version from somewhere else like bestbuy but not from ATT.
I am enjoying my bootloader unlocked moto g stylus 5g 2022 and you are begging others to help you with unlocking your att branded moto g stylus.

May you provide proof please?
Other than bought directly from motorola.com (unlocked) or some T-Mobile version, all other US variants cannot have bootloader unlocked.
Have a nice day.

ATT never sells moto edge+ 5g. There is no att variant moto edge+ 5g at all.
For Motorola phones, usually only unlocked version, t-mobile/metro, t-mobile MVNOs, boost mobile, us cellular and google fi versions are eligible for bootloader unlock. ATT, tracfone, ATT MVNOs, verizon and verizon MVNO versions are never eligible for bootloader unlock.
Visible version used to be fully unlocked version and eligible for bootloader unlock but after visible enforcing 60-day sim-lock policy, visible is shipping dedicated visible version or verizon version motorola phones and they are no longer eligible for bootloader unlock.

So sorry but you are sol! Never buy a device from a network provider because they are locked down! Always buy directly from device manufacturer if you want to unlock it!

I have always been able to unlock T-Mobile/Metro this is my first time dealing with a Verizon bootloader. So basically there is no way to accomplish this.

T-Mobile/ Metro by T-Mobile are bootloader unlock eligible almost immediately, though I have heard of people running into trouble with it before successfully unlocking a few days or a week later. T-Mobile requires the phone to be paid for before SIM unlocking for use with another carrier, and Metro requires you to keep service for 6 months before they'll allow you to network unlock.

Its because that feature is always built in to any android device, but it is up to who you bought it from that decides if they will allow you to unlock it or not!

try flasing wtih the tmobile file
download the coverter.bat to platform-tools folder and also extract the zip of the tmo firmware
click on convert.bat to creat a flashfile.bat
put your phone on fastboot or bootloader mode the same when you turn off you phone and hold volume down and powre together when you get to fastboot screen
just click the flashfile.bat
and it will flash your phone then try the above i mentioned to unlock bootloader instructions
thats how i did it
i have tmobile service so it worked out for me
maybe after unlock your bootloader you can reflash the same way for your service like
att, boost mobile, cricket, retus, tmobile or tracfone
again my phone is the xt-2131 version
also everytime you reflash something and have the option to go to the phone setting you have to oem unlock
and adb debuggin on so that you dont brick it
