Can you provide me with the actual CWM or TWRP recovery please?

did huawei release kernel for Honor 6 plus

Hey. Has anyone managed to get the unlock code out of Huawei for the Honor 6+ PR-TL10 recently I've read that people have had an issue with it and noticed that at least one other poster here had had an issue getting one off them. I get an error on the site saying I'm to email them, from what I've read on other threads though they haven't been forth coming with the unlock codes. Did anyone manage to get it out of them or find another solution. I'm trying to root my phone and such things but without the code from what I've read I won't have much/any luck. Cheers

There's no quick and easy guide because the phone is chinese and there's no official support for it in europe or anywhere else. If you wanted easy rooting you should've bought a nexus phone. That IS the rooting process, provided you have unlocked your phone with the code from Huawei first. If you read the author's post he mentions it at the first step and there are other threads about how to unlock your phone. It needs to be unlocked before it can be rooted. You can do it from Huawei's website if you are in the countries they send codes to or if you're not (like me) you can do what I did and email them. Here's the thread on that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2800079 . To save you the time of searching how and where to email them here's what I did (original post isn't mine):
Email them at [email protected]. DO NOT email from a gmail account they won't reply to you:
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am not able to generate my bootloader unlock code for my Honor 6 Plus. Please send me the unlock code for my device:
Model: PE-TL10
SN: XXXXXXXXXXX
IMEI: XXXXXXXXXX
Product ID: XXXXXXX
And hope they will reply to you. I also had my wife send it in chinese from her QQ mail and they only replied to her because I used gmail. In case you want the chinese version here it is:
你好，
我需要我的荣耀 6 plus的解锁代码。但是因为人在国外无法从网上获取，请问可以发给我吗？ 谢谢
Model: PE-TL10
SN: XXXXXXXXXX
IMEI: XXXXXXXXX
Product ID: XXXXXXXX
At the thread I mentioned earlier there are solutions for getting the code via different emails: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2800079&page=395
I suggest you create a QQ mail or a weibo account like the fella in the thread above.
Now about the rooting process it doesn't require any chinese knowledge that's why I've put the steps there and mentioned all the sub-steps you need to do. In case you don't know what "root folder" means in the steps it's the parent folder when you connect your phone to the pc. It's called root folder in linux/android.

Spare the crap and tell me the unlocking bootloader method again.

Whatever the thing is. First of all tell me how to get unlocking bootloader code? Secondly the author of the post mentioned the steps. OK! But then again, if he is an expert that he actually wrote the article for rooting the Honor 6+ phone, then how come is simply showed the screenshots and just got moving like as if he was on a rollercoaster. He should have explained all the steps in great details. Thirdly he was so absent minded while writing that in his first initial post, wherein he is explaining the whole process, he forgot to paste the link(s) for the tools we need to follow his steps. He mentioned in furhter down the line post, the link where we can have all those files. Fourthly, the tools names are bit changed against what he used himself in the tutorial. Fiftly I have installed the ADB tools, will somebody tell me how to do that fastboot mode or whatever crap that is? I am stuck.
So kindly, if you are that much expert, just explain to me in layman terms. By the way I am not a fool, I have used samsung and sony phones before and rooted them multiple times.
Thanking you once again.

Fixed step 2 in the process, refer to it.
I have already mentioned in detail how to get the unlock code from Huawei. The link to Huawei's unlocking page is here: http://emui.huawei.com/en/plugin.php?id=unlock&mod=detail . On their website it's quite simple if you create an account you can just put your serial number and request for code if Huawei supports your country. Otherwise follow the email process I mentioned above.

Ok! I have recieved my bootloader unlocking code. What's next?

I have got the bootloader unlock code from the huawei support team at my gmail account in just first attempt. anyhow. What to do with that CODE?
Secondly can you tell me which option to select from this screen? Why you did not mention the details about which option to select and which should not be selected.

There's no option to select in your screenshot, it says "PRESS ANY KEY"!!!
I wouldn't suggest you go ahead with your phone rooting if you can't follow simple instructions cause you might end up bricking your device. You will have to do a lot of research on how fastboot, rooting and adb work then come back and try it again.

What simple instructions you are talking about?

Did you even tell me what to do with my UNLOCKING CODE for BOOTLOADER? yet you say I will brick my device. I told you that I have rooted phones before, and if this one is new for me, OK, explain things so that I will do it once and then be on my own next time with any huawei device. Tell me first what to do with the bootloader unlock code which I have recieved from HUAWEI. Secondly I am going to post you the second picture of the tool after PRESS ANY KEY TO CONTINUE and you be the judge of what the heck its trying to say in the chinese.
1- successfully installed ADB drives.
2- Ran this fastboot tool 点这里开始.bat from "Smart unlock tool" folder and the step 2 gives me the WAITING FOR DEVICE message and after that its long gone and no response. What should I do here? Which Mode should the mobile be in during all this step 2?
but before doing step 2, tell me should I connect my phone in normal MTP DEVICE mode or should I Power it off and boot into recovery or flash kind of stuff mode?
just tell me first 2 steps then I can manage hopefully.
and first and foremost, do not forget to tell me about what to do with the bootloader unlock code.
Thank you sir.

How did you root devices without knowing how to fastboot a device or use adb tools?!?! I've already sent you the link to the thread with the full guide for unlocking the phone I won't go through it again here just because you haven't gone through the trouble of reading it.
As far as the message goes it says "Waiting for device" that implies your device isn't recognized either because it's not unlocked or you haven't turned on usb debugging mode in developer options. I won't explain to you how fastboot and adb work here there are plenty of guides out there which you should've read already. Do some research and read the threads carefully before replying.

Unable to unlock bootloader please help

I have old mi account which i used to unlock my redmi note 4 which i replaced with Note 7 Pro.
So i used the same account on Note 7 pro and tried to go to miui unlock website and it redirects me to the download page. I also tried to unlock bootloader but it failed and it gives unlock error-1.
Then i created new Mi account and logged in on Note 7 pro with this new account, but again when i visited miui unlock site it redirects me to download page instead of filling form page.
Please someone help i need to unlock bootloader.

Go to developer options and turn on 'OEM unlocking'. While you are there, go to 'Mi unlock status' and follow the instructions EXACTLY as stated. Use your old Mi Account (which you used to unlock RN4). Download Mi Unlock from the download page and run the software. Follow the steps EXACTLY as stated.
Make sure you have adb drivers installed and working correctly, and also that you have permission to unlock the bootloader.
If you are an active miui forum member (diamond or above) you can unlock your bootloader immediately.

It doesn't work that way anymore (no more forms), first go to your developer settings and enable OEM unlocking and USB debugging, now go to the Mi Unlock option and bind the Mi account, now download the MiUnlock tool and right click and run as administrator, now it should detect your device, if not click on the settings icon in MiUnlock and select install drivers, now once the device is detected, click on unlock device, it would stop at 99% and give you a waiting time of 360hrs or more or less after the waiting period (it usually takes only 7 days) try unlocking again, this time it would be successful but it would format your data so better take a backup

Can you try downloading MiFlash and check if it gets detected in that? It's a different tool from Mi Unlock

Question Have you unlocked it yet?

Have you unlocked it yet?
Can you help me unlock it!

Hi I'm trying to unlock the bootloader, but when I log in to the Xiaomi Unlock Tool, I never received the verfication code that's supposed to be sent via a text messages to my linked US phone number. Other text messages went through fine so either XIaomi didn't send the code or my carrier (AT&T) blocked it. I tried a few other numbers and none worked. Did you guys need to receive the text message to verify your account when using the Unlock Tool? If yes, did you use a Chinese phone number or something else? A tried 4 different US numbers and none of them could receive Xiaomi sms. Thanks for your help!

Hi! How do I know when it's passed time enough to unlock it? Do I have to verify from time to time on the tool?

Sorry but I must be doing something wrong and different from the way I always did unlock bootloader. In Android 12, With Vol down + power the cell phone enters a different screen "Bootloader" that always allowed unlocking.
mi unlock software does not allow clicking the unlock button, fastboot devices and adb devices commands do not work in this mode.... How to unlock with these changes?

Run the unlock tool again, it will tell you how many hours left. Normally it tells you that 168 hours left at the first successful attempt, it also tells you do not logout miui account or try to login another account on your phone. Just be patient.

Question SOLVED: Unable to verify Xiaomi Account on Newly Unlocked Device

I've recently unlocked the bootloader on my Xiaomi device and have encountered an issue getting past the 'This device is Locked' screen.
I have access to the Xiaomi account that was linked to the device, and have entered the correct information, several times using a combination of both with WIFI and without (mobile data) using two different sim cards, and my email address to verify the account using the 2fa on the device.
Unfortunately the screen just disappears for a second before re-appearing and I'm stuck trying to enter the prompts again.
Has anyone encountered this? Does anyone know how I can bypass this screen to continue with the setup process?
I'll try attaching a video that shows the process of what Is happening and I apologise for the sound -- it's hard trying to juggle two devices and record at the same time.

Check here that your device appears and that the phone number matches, otherwise delete the phone from your account and try again.
Or use the reset after deleting the device from the account.
Disregard the i clicked on it wanting to click on the video link.

The device appeared originally and I removed it from the account yesterday in the hopes I could get through this barrier.. I've been two days on this being blocked by the 2fa limit in 24h. Unfortunately removing the device didn't seem to help.
Should I look to do a fastboot reset of the device? Do you think that could help? I could try a flashing the xiaomi.eu rom again.
And no worries. I've found it pretty funny past few days how ridiculous it is.

To summarize you have unlocked the bootloader then install a Xiaomi eu rom from a stock rom, right.
What stock rom?

Yes, It was Chinese stock.
I did the steps to unlock the bootloader, unlocked, waited for reboot, encountered this screen.
First night I tried to unlock on stock rom -- encountering the same issue as in the video.
Second night I tried after flashing Xiaomi.eu. After 2fa ran out I tried deleting the device from the account.
Tonight, same issue after deleting the device from the account.
I've also tried to submit my request to unlock the device to Xiaomi, but it says I'm unsuccessful as current region is different from frequent sign-in regions (though my country isn't in the dropdown and only 'other' is available).

Flashing a Xiaomi Eu rom on a locked device after unlocking the bootloader is not a good idea.
The account and the sim card must be the same as the one used for unlocking.

or flash the same CN rom as the origin with this tool. (do not lock the bootloader)

You could try fastboot erase frp command and see if that helps. Thats the command for removing any account locks.
But flashing a new firmware on a locked, or re locked bootloader is generally a big no

Thank you for your support. I reflashed the stock Chinese rom using the flash_all.sh script and unfortunately have encountered the same issue as shown before in the video. To be clear, this issue was happening on the stock rom, then I flashed xiaomi.eu and problem still persisted.
I've used the same number as was used in the unlocking process -- same result occurs it just loops at the unlock screen. Is there anything else you could recommend I do?
The device is no longer linked to my account and I still receive this message upon opening it.
EDIT:
Issue was resolved either by Xiaomi, or by going to Xiaomi Cloud and Find device, selecting the device, selecting the erase device option, then the delete device option from the hamburger menu. Device now seems to be unlocked and setup is appearing. I guess after removing the device from the Xiaomi account it persists in other aspects of the Xiaomi ecosystem.

Question Couldn't unlock Xiaomi 13 Bootloader

As title suggests,
I have had the phone since 10th March, and since day 1 I bound the account in Mi Unlock Status in developer settings successfully, enabled OEM unlocking and USB debugging.
However, I have tried the Mi Unlock tool version 6.5.406.31 and 6.5.224.28.
I even tried XiaomiToolV2-99.9.9 (the one on github)
They all say the same message
Couldn't Unlock

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I have followed what it said multiple times, and I get no error messages, just a added successful message.
I'm at a loss on what to do, I've never had this issue before on any of my previous Xiaomi phones since Xiaomi Mi 6.
For some scope, I got the phone from WondaMobile 12GB Ram 512GB Storage China model.
I even contacted Xiaomi Customer service, they said "I've passed this on to the technical team" then ended the chat haha
Can anyone advise what I can do?

Yep, believe me, I've tried both.
I have used two versions of the Mi Unlock tool as seen in the original post: I have tried the Mi Unlock tool version 6.5.406.31 and 6.5.224.28.

Yep, tried it all. believe me, I'm good at this stuff, been doing it since 2010.
And I'm also a Software Engineer in my day job.
Just this one is being a little b.
I made sure my phone wasn't using a VPN, or a DNS as I do often use both.
But I was wondering, (I've never come across this myself) if because it's a china version that I might need to use a china vpn?

Others have CN devices and not this problem and others with Global were never able to unlock the bootloader.
And/Or

Yeah I've seen.
I've already tried everything you've suggested,
Login via email on both phone and tool,
Login via phone number on both phone and tool,
Login via account number on both phone and tool,
Login via QR Code on tool from phone.
I've already used the locate tool in the browser multiple times, can confirm I can locate all my Unlocked bootloaders xiaomi phones including this one.
I haven't changed my account, but I'm unsure why I would need to do that since I've never had issues with it before since 2014.
I'm worried about doing a factory reset because it's a china rom, which has english language support. but will not have Google play installed. I know I can install it, but it's hasle. I'd rather do this as a last resort, so I may login with a new account if I still can't unlock it later.
Unless theres any other suggestions.

It seems to me that for recent phones, framework and play store are included.

have you tried different ports? I know when i unlocked my bootloader mi 10 pro I had to use a different port usb 2.0

I've not wiped/formated the phone, I only set up the Xiaomi 13 on the 10th March. 4 days ago.
I've had my xiaomi account for at least 6 years.
I bound the account to the device on the day I got it with no error messages.
and have tried each day to unlock in the Mi unlock tool with the same message

I saw this somewhere else, but I have not seen an actual source for it. If you could find a source I'd greatly appreciate it.
This must be a new thing because I've never had this issue before. I created accounts and successfully unlocked bootloaders within 168 hours successfully.
On my main account it usually unlocks within 15 minutes. But this time, it's not taking to the binding.

There is a waiting period for unlocking yes but that's not the OP's problem. My phone got recognized in the unlock tool minutes after adding it in developer options. Never seen this issue before on any of my Xiaomi phones.
