At the moment there is no way.
Unless you want to pay $ 190

Yes,Huawei has not released unlock codes since 2018.
It is then only possible to buy an unlock code if there is someone

I once bought an unlock code here but I don't know if that still works.

Good luck!

Thanks for this man, but i think i am better off selling this phone and then buying one that i can mod, i dont even know why i bought this, it was probably that this was on discount.

Questions about the bootloader

Hello,
I'm writing today to get more informations (if anyone know, obviously) about the actual bootloader status.
I just bought a Huawei P20. It's a good device, before wanting to root it.
As you know, the bootloader 16-digits number is no more acquirable thanks to our deer and beloved Huawei company, this means that you can't root your device since may, and not only the P20, also other huawei and other devices. :victory:
I think this decision is really anoying : I buyed an android device to be the master of my device, if I did not want, I would have bought an apple device... But it's like they can't assume Android...
That's why I write, to ask, first, if the bootloader unlock is definitely dead, or is there hope ?
If Huawei don't get the bootloader back, do you think someone of the community can release a way to root the device ?
I almost want to refund the phone because of this...
Thanks
DC Unlocker still offers codes. It'll cost a few bucks, though.

I unlocked my P20 the official way, while it was still possible.
I used DC Unlocker (can't remember which one) to unlock a friend's Mate 10 Pro.

I checked, apparently the P20 is not supported by DCUnlocker 1.00.1403 (Latest version)... I could be wrong

I wonder if I can now sell my P20 on eBay at twice the price of a new one, just because I have the BL unlock code for it.

To be honest, though, this device is perfectly usable unrooted, as long as you can live with ads.

I bought it with my phone plan, so if i try to give the phone back they would make me buy another phone that i don't want like s9 or something...
Maybe someone will release something to unlock bootloader without the site ? Nah ? Please give me hope...

Unlock bootloader of Mate 9

Hi! I just got a Mate 9 and was wondering if there's an alternative way to unlock its bootloader since Huawei doesn't allow it anymore.
Maybe something through FunkyHuawei from what I've read here.

True that. I didn't continue.
Try using Dc unlocker? Some people say it works in oreo. I think it depends on your firmware version. Huawei was being strict with modifications. Even firmware finder does not work with current firmwares.

Bootloocker unlock for 8!

Hi Guys.
I was able to unlock my bootlocker for 8 bucks. I waited 24 hours to get the code.

This is for unlocking mobile network not bootloaders. Don't waste your time and money people.

You can choose bootloader unlock in the dropdown on the right... price is 7,99
The price is reasonable, has anyone tried it?
Yeah, i'm gonna call BS on this..
keep us updated 8 bucks is a fair price...

Here u are. Search for P20 Pro. After select Bootloader Password on the right side.
https://imgur.com/a/kOF74nM
OK now I do see the option for bootloader "password" in the select network drop down but can they get that with just imei? Or do they follow up requesting the other info required for bootloader unlock? I see it listed for $9.33.
Any other buyers?
Just place an order and lets see!

You may want to post the steps to unlock so any developers if any can possibly work on a recovery.
Not sure. It state L29. I think it is international or global version.
It came unlock when I got it. Let me ask how they manage to unlock the bootloader.

Hope we dont get penalized for being early adopters (maybe like htc cid change?) Hardware should be the same right?
Stupid and probably unlikely to work but can we restore the UK backup? The hisuite has rom flashing in it natively also.... There's also an option internally to flash/upgrade

May have to go the funkyhuwaei route and try to rebrand. However I'm not sure it's possible with a locked bootloader.

This is one response I got the other day. FYI this is my first Huawei device so I'm learning a ton as I'm trying to figure out other things so sorry if I'm a tad off on anything. The project menu has USB options too...

This unit is a beta prototype for testing/developer and hence it is not locked. The actual commercial set will be locked.
This option is possibly shown due to prototype while I was exploring the phone. My apologies and hope that clarify
