I think it does, but it should go away after allowing OEM unlock in the developer settings

Thank you. My bootloader was not unlocked and the setting "OEM Unlock" was not selected in Dev Settings. I went through both the phone settings and the Dev settings, could not locate this FRP setting.

Hello! I've been searching the net far and wide for a way to root my Alcatel idol 4. Its the cricket model. I was able to unlock the boot loader and turn on USB debugging but besides that I haven't had any luck rooting my device.
Has anyone tried and has success or know any methods that could work?
Thank you!

How did you unlock the bootloader? I'm not able to do it. Fastboot doesn't see the phone when I boot to bootloader.

It's in the developer options called "OEM unlocking" 5th option down from the top.

That's been done since I got the phone. Still doesn't make a difference, fast boot commands have been stripped from this phone.

try this SETTINGS>BACKUP AND RESET>DEVICE RESET. this will restore all settings to default state while keeping dev-ops and all apps and data
Sorry if I'm speaking out of turn, as I'm not highly experienced...>BUT, I went thru what your referring to with my OnePlus phone. The option in the developer options that says "OEM Unlocking" for bootloader is nothing more than an option in the Android system that allows the bootloader to be unlocked should the mfg allow it. Whether this is on/off makes no difference for this being unlocked. It just has to be turned on for the unlocking to work. I had this Idol 4 for a short time but returned it due to the fastboot commands being removed.
Just wondering if the bootloader on the Rogers Pixel is unlockable? The setting is there under Developer Options. Do I just need to tick that off?
Thanks!

Yes
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.
Curious...what is the oem unlock bootloader option in settings developer for? Have not seen mentioned to tick this b4 bootloader unlock thru HTC Dev.

And for select HTC devices with Android Lollipop and all devices that receive Marshmallow, you will need to first manually enable OEM unlocking in Developer options in order to allow the bootloader to be unlocked and proceed with the next steps. To access the OEM unlocking setting on your device, open the Developer options in the system Settings.

So I cannot unlock my Google Pixel every time I try the commands in ADB it gives me this error...
c:\adb>fastboot oem unlock
...
FAILED (remote: oem unlock is not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.012s
I have tried a few other commands and they didn't work either. And before anyone asks YES it is from Google Store not from Verizon. If anyone has any ideas it would be greatly appreciated thanks!
Did you enable developer options and check allow bootloader unlocking?
Assuming OEM unlock toggle is active in Dev Options...
Replace "oem" with "flashing".
fastboot flashing unlock

If it's connected to the internet and still greyed out, sad to say you most likely have a Verizon model.

If oem unlocking is greyed out then unfortunately you are stuffed. You can't unlock your bootloader. Especially if you are already on Oreo. If you are on Nougat it's possible but don't know if you can downgrade and try. Maybe? You need search the forums for unlocking a verizon phone. You can't unlock on EE in the UK and possibly other carriers around the world too.
At this point if you bought it from Google call them. The either sent you a VZ phone or the one you got isn't in their database to allow unlocking. I suspect the latter.
