So you got the Edge S and want GApps? Basically you unlock your bootloader, root with Magisk, then install MagiskGApps.
DISCLAIMER: UNLOCKING YOUR BOOTLOADER MAY VOID YOUR WARRANTY, AND DOING ALL THESE THINGS IN THIS GUIDE MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE/BRICKING YOUR PHONE. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING YOU DO TO YOUR PHONE. PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK.
1. Unlock the bootloader: that should be doable with their global bootloader unlock website here.
2. Download Lenovo Motoroa Smart Assistant (Rescue and Smart Assistant), and follow its instructions to "rescue" your device. It will lead you to boot into bootloader mode and download the firmware. Find the firmware file via the LMSA's downloads (should have a "show folder" button). You'll need the boot.img file for Magisk.
3. Download Magisk, then follow its instructions. You'll have to copy the boot.img to your device, then use Magisk to patch the boot file, then copy the modified one to your PC.
4. You'll need fastboot. If you don't have it already, you can download the Android SDK platform tools here. Then go into the folder, Shift+Right Click the folder, then "Open Command Prompt" or "Open PowerShell," you should have something close to one of those two. Copy your Magisk modified .img file to that folder, then you'll want to input:
fastboot flash boot [modified .img file]
Once that completes, you should see in large text, "Start" on your phone next to the power button. Press the power button, and it should boot, and you should have root now.
5. Download MagiskGApps to your phone, open Magisk on your phone, click the button that looks like a puzzle piece at the bottom of the screen, "Modules." Click "Install from storage," locate the MagiskGApps file, and install it. After that it will ask you to restart your phone, do that, then you'll just have to be patient as it takes time once its restarted to load everything. You also may need to update some or all of the apps, then you should be able to use the notification to finish setting up the phone with Google Setup.
Thanks to Motorola for making it easy to unlock their bootloaders
Thanks to the whole Magisk team for making an easy, awesome root (and more!)
Thanks to Wacko1805 (and team?) for making MagiskGApps. This is really awesome.

Magisk has a "Magisk Hide" which will allow it to pass SafetyNet, and most things which check on device security will think the device is secure. But unlocking BL and rooting does make the device less secure, and therefore incurs its own risks apart from bricking or damaging the device.

Google Pay works. But according to the Motorola website you should be able to relock the bootloader if yours doesn't work. But there's never any guarantee. If you need your device secure, recommend don't unlock bl or root, or wait to see if there's a root option without bootloader unlock that can be easily undone.

I saw that someone’s edge s had unlocked the BL and Flash G100 firmware and everything worked normally, and then tried to lock the BL again, but it was unsuccessful and the system could not start. The flashing tool does not recognize the machine.

That's not good. Hopefully they can restore it back somehow. With this guide to unlock and flash gapps why would you need to flash G100 though? This seems to be itright now without one of rom developer's releases to get root & apps. For me this is all i would look for. Titanium backup on it and restore.. done until PE rom comes out.

I would think yes, if you flash different firmware, locking the BL would likely cause problems. It's very difficult to do anything w/o unlocked bootloader, except sometimes rooting is doable. That's pretty much the behavior I expect. If they come to this subforum, we might be able to help.

thank you. They did not ask for help. It seems that the lock BL is a self-verification switch, and then performs a verification system integrity.

I'm curious,If you unlock and flash other firmware and then flash back to the original firmware, can it be locked again?
Mine doesn't let me unlock its BL. I've got unlock code from moto and did a factory reset with SIM card in slot 1. After enabling developer mode and debugging the switch still is greyed out. So no chance to unlock it.
Has anyone got an idea what to try now?
Moto support answered yesterday to my request but also no solution since I told them that it doesn't work
Device is not branded. I got it from Amazon so no provider branding.
If this won't be able to be unlocked and rooted I'll have to return it and switch to a Google Pixel.

I had the same issue, you need to factory reset WITH your sim card in the phone, this will let you open the OEM unlock slide thing in the dev mode.
Then once its done you can fastboot and unlock the bootloader.
I did so, maybe I explained not so well. SIM was inserted and then I did factory reset by starting it from settings. After restart it's still the same - switch / unlock slider greyed out.

On my OG Pixel XL, I had to wait 7 days for the slider to become normal. By the time I got around to do it on the Edge S it was about the same time.... could be related
Now as you said that I remember that thingy with another device. Maybe a Xiaomi I think... With that I had to wait several days until the unlock code was delivered.
But there was a message, too, when trying to get it sooner, which said you needed to wait some more time.
Not sure if it's the the same for Moto devices? Then again, when thinking that you experienced the same with a Pixel, too...
Did anyone else make such an experience with his/her g100?

Make sure your on the latest OTA, Lenovo made a mistake on previous versions with the OEM Unlocking function not being enabled. They fixed it in latest ota.
RSA tool said the file I uploaded yesterday is the latest one available (and it's exactly the same as the installed version).
The device was released just a few days ago in Europe. Perhaps they fixed the unlock switch in other regions and still need to fix it in Europe..
Will wait until weekend if they come up with a solution. If not I'm afraid I have to return the device as I need it personally AND professionally, too - I'm field agent, so.... :/

I just received my Flip3 (SM-F711U1) and would like to unlock my bootloader. However developer options is missing the OEM Unlock option. It's completely missing not just grayed out. I read a few articles about needed to change the system date but none of those guides changed anything. Can someone help?
Also, I attempted to call *#*#7378423*#*# to double checked that it wasn't already unlocked and I got a popup saying "Unabled to process the request."

You can try directly unlock without ticking the oem unlock. By boot into download mode. The other thing is your device or carrier or country wont allow your flip 3 to be unlock. There last step you can try is clean flash via odin with your latest firmware.

if you're in North America, Canada etc Qualcomm chips there do not support bootloader unlocking, at least the Samsung one's don't, not sure about other OEMs.

They used to, so there was always a possibility it returned.
I recently read this article on XDA about unlocking the boot loader on the Fold 3 which results in Samsung disabling the camera (WTH?), Is this a thing on the Flip3 too?
My device is rooted. I have always been able to find the OEM unlock option under developer options without any constraints.
My camera is NOT affected. I can still use it without any issues.
I have an European device (SM-F711B).
Hope this helps some of you to track down whether this is a location or carrier based problem.
Hey Redhatter,
Out of topic question, but are you getting Tmobile 5G just fine?

If the previous owner possibly still owes money on it then you can't unlock the bootloader. You'd have to get the unlock app from TMO and they'd have to authorize it to make it unlockable bootloader, which TMO won't do if there's money owed on it.
You should be able to unlock it. The exception is if the previous owner relocked the bootloader. In that case, the bootloader cannot be reunlocked.

I am also having a problem. This seems to be a problem with their website. I tried different browers, computers, and connections. Get that error every time after submitting the device key.
I tried with my new G100, and I have the same error. Any idea of a workaround?
I am having the same error with my Motorola G Stylus 2020 it has to be with their websites ive tried different browsers, computers, they need to solve this issue!!!
same error, i pray their system is down temporarily, G100 with different browsers.
I tried all methods that involve the motorola website I found on the forum but none work. I contacted motorola support, I'll keep you posted if I find anything.
Same here. I called and finally got level 2 support which said they couldn't help. They sent me to the motorola forums where I've asked about it. Will post if I get a reply as well.
Here is a link for the motorola unlock bootloader thread. Post your device ID there

I asked support and they told me the site was down and should be up in a few day. I re-tried now and it worked. I got my code. But the OEM unlock option in the developer settings is still grayed out. Apparently I have to wait which is stupid, I'm very close to just return the phone.

Yep. i did it just now and the site seems to be working again
confirmed working again
Ok, for reference, as there are some different things scattered alongside the forum.
I have a G100, german model (I'm in switzerland, but it's considered german).
What I had to do:
- go here <https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a>
- contrary to what customer service told me, the global portal works, even with a german model
- the website was down, but it's up now, if it's down for you, I guess you'll have to try again, customer support did not help me
- BUT, to be able to use the unlock code with `fastboot oem unlock <code>` you need first to activate "OEM unlock" in the Developer settings.
- To access this settings, you need to activate the phone. Some says it works on wifi, but I used LTE for the initial setup, just to be sure. After the setup, I did a few calls, I don't know if this is significant, but the first call took like 5 minutes to connect (I say this because you might be tempted to turn the phone off right after the activation). I applied all the updates, left my phone on my desk, and after 72h this settings was accessible (not grayed).
- After toggling the setting, you can use `fastboot oem unlock` and proceed with lineage installation
I just successfully bootloader unlocked a Moto G 5G (2022) using the website. It took them about five minutes to email me the unlock code after I submitted the string on the website.
Keep in mind that you are referencing two different things: network locks, and bootloader locks. The device may have a clean IMEI and be network unlocked (you can use any carriers SIM in the SIM tray). This doesn't necessarily mean that the bootloader can be unlocked for purposes of flashing custom ROMS. You'll need a phone that is both network unlocked and has an unlockable bootloader.
that's why wiko is better........
I'm having the same issue but with my xt2131-1 model. I received the unique code via email and it says failed to validate code.
I Have been trying on the Motorola website and it says that the phone is ineligible to be unlocked when i put the Device ID on there site. I mean, why would the phone even have an OEM Unlock option if there was no way to unlock the bootloader? Just asking if anyone else has found a way around this?

ATT never sells moto edge+ 5g. There is no att variant moto edge+ 5g at all.
For Motorola phones, usually only unlocked version, t-mobile/metro, t-mobile MVNOs, boost mobile, us cellular and google fi versions are eligible for bootloader unlock. ATT, tracfone, ATT MVNOs, verizon and verizon MVNO versions are never eligible for bootloader unlock.
Visible version used to be fully unlocked version and eligible for bootloader unlock but after visible enforcing 60-day sim-lock policy, visible is shipping dedicated visible version or verizon version motorola phones and they are no longer eligible for bootloader unlock.

I have always been able to unlock T-Mobile/Metro this is my first time dealing with a Verizon bootloader. So basically there is no way to accomplish this.
T-Mobile/ Metro by T-Mobile are bootloader unlock eligible almost immediately, though I have heard of people running into trouble with it before successfully unlocking a few days or a week later. T-Mobile requires the phone to be paid for before SIM unlocking for use with another carrier, and Metro requires you to keep service for 6 months before they'll allow you to network unlock.

put your phone on fastboot or bootloader mode the same when you turn off you phone and hold volume down and powre together when you get to fastboot screen
just click the flashfile.bat
and it will flash your phone then try the above i mentioned to unlock bootloader instructions
thats how i did it
i have tmobile service so it worked out for me
maybe after unlock your bootloader you can reflash the same way for your service like
att, boost mobile, cricket, retus, tmobile or tracfone
again my phone is the xt-2131 version
also everytime you reflash something and have the option to go to the phone setting you have to oem unlock
and adb debuggin on so that you dont brick it
I can't seem to get the OnePlus n300 bootloader unlocked,, I do a"db reboot bootloader" it just reboots. I can boot into fastboot mode. I can't seem to find out how to boot into bootloader. Help? Suggestions?
I wasn't sure what thread to post this in if I was wrong please move it to the appropriate thread. Ty
I'm having the same problem phone won't go into brom mode either
Same here. I got mine from T-mobile. I had an A50 from Sprint and they prevented the oem unlock option from showing. And I think this is the same tactic they are doing. I hope someone figures something out. I've never gotten my A50 rooted. It sucks. My N300 only goes in "recovery mode" that just lets you wipe data, power off, or reboot. I bought a case and screen protector already. I might just find someone on e bay and send mine out for someone to figure out if nothing happens. This really sucks.
Edit: I just Contacted OnePlus and the guy checked my IMEI and said my service carrier has to unlock the device to activate the bootloader menu. I don't know how true that is but I called Tmobile and the lady checked my IMEI and said she can't unlock it because there is a contract attached to the device. Even though I got the phone for free. Then later she said she couldn't because the phone is not activated yet. Which I told her that I want the bootloader unlocked before I activate it. So now I don't know what to do. Any help, still, would be much appreciated. );
For context: Phone is similar to the Oppo K10 5G/A77 5G. (No, not trying to unlock BL, just trying to add some clues)
On the t-mobile issue just activate your phone and tell the person that you are a dev and need it unlocked (that's what it o read on XDA re: n200) so i called them saying i didn't want it unlocked for any reason other than to root it. They kinda ho hummed around said they couldn't and later that evening there was an app on my phone that allowed me to oem unlock it and i had it rooted on unofficial twrp oxygen os magisk that night. Planning same as i just ordered n300 will be here today plus already asked an agent at t-mobile and she said she would unlock it.

The problem is not oem unlocking because the option is available In the developers options. The problem is the phone will not boot up in fastboot mode. But please, if you have anything that can help, please post. Thanks.
I don’t know if people still do this, but…
BUMP!
Lol
Have to unlock phone, then get unlock code from OP
For the N200 we could run this to ungrey the OEM unlock toggle:
Code:
adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.qualcomm.qti.uim
Have you tested to see if this works with the N300?

The N300 is a MediaTek device, and the code you showed looks to be for Qualcomm.

Oof. Yup, that’ll do it. Didn’t realize that. Yuck!
Looks like I'm getting the phone back! Did we ever figure out how to get fastboot? Anyone make a twrp for this phone yet?
I was wondering about it also because MetroPCS told me after 180 days my phone automatically is unlocked...so does that mean the bootloader can be unlocked as well or does anyone know if MetroPCS even allows that?
