EDIT:
fastboot boot and fastboot flash WORK even though
fastboot oem device-info shows thebootloader is NOT UNLOCKED.
If that still doesn't work try to flash some other compatible stock rom for your model with qfil and try the fastboot boot and fastboot flash commands again, don't care about unlock status, it worked for me successfully flashed twrp and a custom rom.
Hello!
My Lenovo VIBE K5 A6020a41 refuses to unlock its bootloader.
Output of fastboot oem unlock:
FAILED (remote: 'oem unlock is not allowed')
I have enabled developer settings, usb debugging and Unlock OEM setting.
I found some posts of people with the same issue and smartphone model and they said they fixed it by flashing another stock rom (they didn't specify which).
I have flashed two or three other stock ROMs with QFIL, one was for A6020a40 model and the other two were for my A6020a41 model.
Again, I enabled all the necessary settings and still couldn't unlock my bootloader, showed the same error.
Then I tried flashing TWRP through QFIL, but when I rebooted into it, Lenovo logo showed for a second and then a black screen forever, I also tried to see if adb was able to detect it as a device in recovery, but it didn't.
Then I managed to root it with KingoRoot(I know it is not secure and it is bad and all, but I just want to flash a custom rom anyway), so I installed the official TWRP app and an app called Flashify, both flashed TWRP successfully, but I couldn't boot into the TWRP again, Lenovo logo for a second and a black screen.
Do You have any suggestions please?
Thank You.

Already did. This device supports the older one only. (Should support)

Hi ,
I have recently purchased a Yu Yuphoria 5010A. I thought it had cyanogen mod but found to have just Android OS.
I have searched this forum for unlocking OEM and installing recovery to install cyanogen mod. I activated allow oem unlock in developers options and then tried to unlock via fastboot . fastboot detects the device but I am unable to unlock oem as it says "remote : oem unlock not allowed " . I was able to temporary boot into cwm recovery using "fastbbot 0x2A96 boot recovery.img" but it was not able to further install the mod.
Can you help with unlock the oem and install cyanogen mod. coz all the steps mentioned in this site and others have failed.
Thank you
Hii I also bought same model and also want cynogenmod os. But I don't know if its possible to flash cynogen os . but I rooted my phone an d its working perfectly. I had same problem of can't open bootloder not allowed to open bootloader. I checked the allow to open OEM in developer option. I guess this model has already unlocked bootloader cause I just rooted it even when it said can't unlock bootloader. You can try it but download stock ROM before if anything goes wrong. And please tell me if I can flash cynogen mod is it safe

Hi, I've got the 6045Y model which I've been trying to install twrp on, but I can't unlock the bootloader; it says oem unlock is not allowed.
I've tried on os x and linux with sudo but it's the same on both sides. As my phone isn't carrier locked, I don't understand why it's not allowing me to unlock the bootloader. There's also no oem unlock option in the developer options.
Any help?
You must do something wrong?
Can you trY with Windows
You need Alcatel Drivers+Minimal Adb and Fastboot
connect device you must enable debugging and then
-type "adb reboot-bootloader" to reboot into bootloader. The device should reboot to the screen showing "alcatel onetouch...powered by android". This is bootloader mode.
-Then type "fastboot -i 0x1bbb devices" should show some numbers and "fastboot" after the numbers
-Type "fastboot -i 0x1bbb oem device-info" shows device info including bootloader status (e.g. locked).
-Type "fastboot -i 0x1bbb oem unlock" to unlock the bootloader; after this you should get, for device info,
-Type "fastboot -i 0x1bbb oem device-info" and you should see "Device unlocked: true"
-To reboot normally: "fastboot -i 0x1bbb reboot"

I tried on windows just now and the same thing happened: "FAILED (remote: oem unlock is not allowed)". I should mention though, I flashed twrp before unlocking the bootloader. I wonder if this is what's causing the problem.
I dont remember if this option was there, but you can try. Go into Settings/About Phone, scroll down and click on “build number” continuously until you see a toast notification telling you that you've enabled Developer Options. Go back to your Settings menu and enter Developer Options, scroll down and click on the “Enable OEM Unlock” checkbox, also make sure you enable USB Debugging while you're in the Developer Options menu.

Same problem with same UK model and installed that patch too. I managed to flash TWRP and install PAC ROM still bootloader claims to be locked.
fastboot -i 0x1bbb oem unlock
FAILED (remote: oem unlock is not allowed)
fastboot -i 0x1bbb oem device-info
(bootloader) Device tempered:false
(bootloader) Device Unlock:false
easiest way is to download stock firmware with flsh tool for panasonic eluga switch (rebranded idol3),. Flash it with using the included flash tool. then unlock bootloader. Then use mobile upgrade Q 5.0.6 to go back to stock. And you are on stock uk firmware with unlocked bootloader.
I flashed someone's stock 6045Y(Europe) Firmware: 5.0.2-010 03 but couldn't unlock it either. After that I flashed 6045-i806-DCZ. I was really surpriced it let me do that while claiming to be locked and untempered. After that I did factory reset and flashed PAC-ROM. I'm not sure why should I bother to unlock bootloader if I already have TWRP and PAC-ROM flashed. I've no idea how can I even flash rom's with locked bootloader? Maybe oem device-info is bugged.
Anyways I download panasonic eluga switch firmwire, gonna test it after taking backups.

the Panasonic firmware flash also the aboot partition which has bootloader unlock enabled. without unlocked bootloader you could end with bricked device and the only solution is mobile upgrade q.
I did as you said and finally got bootloader unlocked, yey! Hopefully I don't have to go thought that process anytime soon. Thanks and thumps up!

1-You didnt wrote phch model do you have.
2-newer heard of this issue . Install the drivers from the eluga firmware app, reboot, turn off your device, connect device to computer, run the download form the eluga firmware app.

That is the point from my previouse question! If you flash TWRP, your bootloader is unlocked by default!

It looks like MM update dont include aboot with commands for unlocking bootloader. You have to use mobile upgrade Q PC aPP, or Panasonic eluga firmware flash tool (for 6045Y) to go back to 5.0.2. Then unlock bootloader, and flash update to MM (or when on panasonic firmware youhave to use mobile upgrade Q to go back to stock). When on stock, wat for OTA MM or flash MM from XDA thread.

because they have erased this command/s from aboot partition (bootloader)
I've tried online guides to unlock bootloader, but messed up in some point and now I'm stuck.
1st. Download indepth test and reboot to bootloader within the app.
2nd. Tried adb devices successfully
3rd. Fastboot oem unlock nor Fastboot flashing unlock run (output: fastboot oem unlock failed "remote unknown command")
4th. Decided to make a factory reset (just becase I had to make an stupid desition)
Now I can reboot into fastboot again, because in depth test app won't install anymore. Installer says "Installation failed -An app with the same signature has already been installed"
I've unsuccessfully tried to flash stock rom from recovery but thein depth test seems to be "installed" without front user interface, also fasboot reboot bootloader get stuck in waiting for any device.
Can someone have a solution I already tried anything that comes to my mind.
Thanks.
I was able to solve the problem installing extractly the same apk.
The "fastboot oem unlock" dont work for me
What work on me 5pro is "fastboot flashing unlock"
Then flash twrp and vbmeta
