To unlock bootloader download platform tools on you pc and boot into fastboot mode. Then connect your device to the pc and open cmd in your platform tools directory and run fastboot oem unlock. Then use volume buttons to navigate and power button to select.
Ps: All your data will be lost when you unlock bootloader. So backup all your data before you proceed.

You'll also need to enable "OEM unlocking" in the developer settings.

I no longer have access to the developer mode, because I am no longer an operating system
Does it show up when you type fastboot devices?
What guide did you follow?
What steps did you skip?
If you see your device in fastboot devices you can go to guides and use the fastboot rom thread to get it working.. That works if you managed to unlock the BL, I'm having a hard time understanding if u managed to unlock it or not...
Don't waste your time

Just Use Unbrick tool, it takes 5 minutes to bring any OP6 back to stock with locked bootloader, then upgrade back to Android Pie.

If in phone's Android -> Settings -> Developer options the option "OEM unlock" is available then enable it and re-start phone afterwards.
On PC-side you also have to install Oppo F9 Pro MediaTek VCOM Driver

Wondering - because you stated your phone doesn't have a bootloader what OPPO officials confirmed - why then you try to unlock phone's bootloader?
BTW: ADB commands operate on Android OS, not on phone's bootloader what in fact Fastboot commands do.
Example commands sequence:
Code:
adb devices
adb reboot fastboot
fastboot reboot fastboot 2>nul
adb get-state
ok bro i got my answer thx

Pixel 3a - OEM Unlocking is active but no option to unlock bootloader

Hi Everyone,
I'm having some difficulties unlocking my Pixel 3a to install a ROM.
I have activated developer options, activated OEM Unlocking, but when I get into the bootloader, there is no option to unlock the bootloader itself...
The only options I have are :
Start
Power off
BarCode
Recovery Mode
Restart Bootloader
I have no idea what's happening and haven't found anything online that would even hint at what is wrong. Does anyone have any idea about what is going on with this ?
Thanks for your help.
when booted to bootloader you need to execute the command
'fastboot flashing unlock'
see here:
How to Unlock the Bootloader on Your Pixel 3a
The first thing you'll always have to do before getting your customization game on with most phones is to unlock the bootloader. Doing so opens the true potential of the device, allowing you to root, install TWRP, Magisk, custom ROMs, and other mods. No matter your wants or needs, there's no way...

To Unlock bootloader
- Install adb and fastboot on your PC. https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
- Run through the initial setup if you haven't already, if you haven't don't bother logging into your google account.
- Enable dev options(settings>about phone>build number>tap it 7 times).
- Go into settings>system>advanced>dev options>oem unlocking, click the toggle.
- While still in dev options scroll down a little and enable usb debugging.
- Plug your phone into your pc. If or when the phone asks you to trust the computer make sure to check the "always allow this computer" check box.
Open up command prompt type into the cmd window
adb reboot bootloader
The phone will reboot into fastboot mode.
Now type into the cmd window
fastboot devices
See if it lists a device, if not you need to install the drivers I linked to. If you had to install the drivers try the fastboot devices command again after installing them, it should list the device now.
type in:
fastboot flashing unlock
You will then have to use the phone to select yes to the unlock. you use the volume keys to select and the power button to confirm.
Your bootloader is now unlocked and you follow one of the root methods.
reboot your phone

Question unlock bootloader

I tried to by this instruction https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/bootloader-unlock-realme-gt-neo-2-rmx3370-all-variants.4391679/ But I don't have "Apply" as in paragraph 4) but there is as in the picture. What does this mean and how to unlock the bootloader in this case?
it says that you already joined in depth-test programm. So just boot your device into the fastboot mode and connect it to the pc. Then open up the "adb programm" whit the cmd/terminal and type: "fastboot flashing unlock". Them your device will reboot and show warning and use the volume button to select "Yes Unlock Bootloader"

If it looks like this, is the bootloader unlocked? I did not do anything with the phone, it is like that from the box.
yes it is unlocked!

"SECURE CHECK FAIL : boot"

I just unlocked bootloader on my S7 and was installing magisk and did everything and got the AP patched magisk file etc, and got to Odin and started flashing only for it to fail with this error
Im not sure what to do as this is the correct verison firmware, I unlocked the bootloader, and flashed everything occardinginly
Did you follow the Magisk Installation Instructions?
After unlocking the bootloader, you have to let the device boot and confirm that OEM Unlocking is still available. Vaultkeeper/Knox Guard are still active even after unlocking the bootloader.

Hmm yeah that's what I thought but thought it was already so because...
I unlocked bootloader in dev options but when I boot into download mode it doesn't give me the prompt to fully open up the device it's just normal download mode :/
I tried booting into recovery and "restart to bootloader option" doesn't even exist, so I had to do it via pc
What should I do?

The OEM Unlocking toggle in Developer Options does not unlock the bootloader on its own. It's simply a "safety" that when enabled allows you to unlock the bootloader.
When you're in download mode, do you see "OEM LOCK" near the top of the screen? Does it say "On"?
To unlock the bootloader, unplug any cables and shut the device down.
Then, hold both VOLUME buttons, and while holding them, insert the USB cable from your PC. The device should start with a prompt - Volume Up for download mode, long press Volume Up for unlock mode, and Volume Down to cancel. Follow the prompts to unlock your device. This will wipe all user data.
Once you've unlocked the bootloader, follow the instructions in the link I posted to ensure Vaultkeeper/Knox Guard are fully disabled.

When I boot into download mode it just shows a normal download screen with no text in the top left, no nothing, it's just normal download. I don't get the option to unlock the bootloader as I've said in my last post
