I returned to the Emui 4.1, tried to unlock and it did not work.
There is no OEM unlock option under development.
Drivers are ok
USB depuration OK
Adb reboot bootloader Ok
Anb unlock bootloader CODE ... Fail

Nothing security settings activate
Why not unlock bootloader???

My Honor 8 no have option unlock OEM
You're not looking under Developer Options?
You go into "Settings" -> "About Phone" and tap "Build Number" a bunch of times until it says "you're a developer."
Back out to "Settings" -> "Developer Options" and "OEM unlocking" should be about the seventh option down with a toggle option.
where to find my unlock code
First of all: Is it normal for my OEM unlocking to be greyed out with status "Bootloader already unlocked" on this device after unlocking the bootloader? On my pixel2xl the option is not greyed out even after unlocking the bootloader, so I'm confused.
More info: Trying to set up a Pixel 2 64GB unlocked version from google store, it came on 8.0 November update. I was able to unlock the bootloader, had trouble flashing to the latest February 8.1 straight from November 8.0, but was able to boot back into 8.0 and let it do the OTA to 8.1 February update successfully. I factory reset after updating to 8.1 February update and have been connected to wifi and have a sim card in while setting up (if that matters), and now the option for OEM unlocking is still greyed out with status "Bootloader already unlocked". Not that it really matters I guess since I want the bootloader to remain unlocked, but the fact that it's different on my 2 pixel devices makes me think I did something wrong somewhere or misconfigured something.

But what if I need to re-lock my bootloader? Don't I need this switch available?

Nope.
To lock the bootloader, connect via USB to a computer that has the SDK Platform Tools on it, and reboot to the bootloader.
Open a command prompt in your "platform tools" folder and type:
Code:
fastboot flashing lock
This will lock your bootloader and wipe the device. I believe this also sets the "get_unlock_ability" flag to 0 (which the OEM unlock switch corresponds to).
To explain this a little more simply:
There are three components in play here.
First, there is a firmware flag that determines whether the device can be unlocked at all: "ro.oem_unlock_supported". If this is set to 0, OEM Unlocking will be greyed out and unlocking is not possible.
Second, there is another firmware flag that determines whether the bootloader can be unlocked:
"get_unlock_ability". This corresponds to the OEM Unlocking switch - off is 0, on is 1. If the switch is on/flag is set to 1, the bootloader may be unlocked.
Third, there's the bootloader itself. If the "get_unlock_ability" flag is set to 0, the bootloader will refuse unlock commands. If the bootloader is already unlocked, it will override the flag.
Hope this helps and makes sense!

I FRD-AL00 B391, i want to unlock bootloader, follow https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/guide-unlock-bootloader-install-twrp-t3554789 But Step 6, i cant't found OEM Unlock in Developer Settings, and Rommco05 said Chinese models don't...

The guy had the same problem. In the forum the guy tried to downgrade to android 6 to get bootloader unlock i think. There may be a way to get oem unlock by android 6 emui I think. Maybe you could find a way to downgrade to android 6 using dload. Try to downgrade to android 6 using dload and then the oem unlock option should be available.
Then when you installed android 6 twrp, you could use hurupdater (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/tool-hurupdater-0-4-flash-official-firmware-in-recovery.3769279/) to update to android 7 without losing bootloader unlock
I have a Nokia 5.1 plus (x5) devices. It updated on android 10 and I cant turn on OEM unlock to unlock bootloader. Can you guild to me how to unlock bootloader it?
If OEM Unlock option is present but greyed then bootloader might be already unlocked.
If OEM Unlock option isn't present at all then bootloader can't get unlocked.
