Trouble unlocking the bootloader of a Samsung galaxy a30s - General Questions and Answers

The problem here is that I can't access the download "menu". The phone has volume buttons and power button, nothing else. I can access the bootloader using recovery mode, but it throws me to the "download" section of the download mode, instead of the "menu" section of the download mode. The download "menu" can unlock the bootloader by long volume up. The download menu "download" can't do that. I have OEM unlock enabled.

Samsung allows unlocking the bootloader on the international versions of their phones.
Have you successfully enabled OEM Unlock option?

I have it already on, so yes, I have it enabled.

The root process or custom recovery on a Alcatel OneTouch SHINE LITE (No bootloader?)

Hello, and before I get into it, yes I have tried many ways. Using adb, using one of those root tools for PC and Android. Etc
And yes the bootloader is unlocked in developer settings
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I think the error is the bootloader
This is too see if we can find the bootloader on this phone.
I have tried "adb reboot bootloader" that just restarts the phone,
I've tried rebooting into recovery and selecting the reboot into bootloader option.
That again just starts the phone.
I also found that with the recovery menu adb option my pc does not recognise it, so maybe there is no drivers for the adb in recovery mode if someone could find drivers for that that'd be great :laugh:
I am currently stumped on my progress on this phone. And would like some help

"Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted." after trying to install TWRP
Hello everyone,
I was trying to install TWRP and flash an image to my Honor 6X but at some point it just wouldn't want to reboot anymore and just stayed in the following screen.
Image:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

}
Does anyone know what to do now? Just booting into the OS would be enough.
Edit: Just left it charging and it booted, lol
Edit 2: after trying to reboot into bootloader its stuck again :/
Edit 3: It booted again after like half an hour. there doesnt seem to be any logic behind the reason it boots. Sometimes it does sometimes it doesnt.
Power off device by Holding power button
Then boot into bootloader by holding volume down and plug usb
Then Flash elite twrp

Hello. I recently got a Pixel 4a and have been trying to unlock bootloader and install Magisk to no avail. I can't even toggle the OEM unlocking option. As far as i know the Verizon version might be impossible to unlock bootloader. But i have no idea if my device is Verizon or not. After checking the device's cid adb return 000000. Am i out of luck here or is there something can be done? Thanks

OEM unlocking of Pixel phones requires internet access.
In my case trying to do OEM unlocking without internet access was the reason for the same greyed out button.
Did you setup internet access and restart the phone afterwards?
If yes, then I am out of ideas.

Flash Fastboot without unlocking Bootloader?

Hey, I am using Redmi 4 prime. I wanted to unlock my Bootloader. But Mi unlocker and adb says it's locked. So I want to flash the fastboot rom to fix it. Any suggestion?

Screenshot provided shows phone's bootloader is unlocked.
FYI: Fastboot is integral part of phone's bootloader, hence you must flash nothing to have it working.

It's actually not unlocked. It only shows it's unlocked. It's like a fake rom problem

Question Can't unlock bootloader and flash TWRP on Samsung Galaxy A12.

Hello, everyone.
Today I'm trying to root my phone, but I am not succeeding to do it because I can't unlock the bootloader and flash TWRP.
Currently, on the developer options, I've activated and grayed out OEM unlocking, and also I have unlocked the bootloader on the download mode.
Is there any reason why can't I unlock the bootloader, and why is this happening?
