I bought my Z2 from EE in the uk and i was very sad to find out that EE and other carriers stop you from unlocking the bootloader. So if i sim unlock my phone from EE, will i be able to unlock the bootloader? If not is there any other way i can make it say yes??

No and no.
This has been answered before. If you bootloader is locked, there is no practical way to unlock it.

Hi all
Unlocking bootloader with RDSLite makes Sim Free for any carrier uses or not?
No. Bootloader unlock and carrier unlock are entirely different.

No,
Debranding is Software
Unlocking is Hardware
To Debrand all you did was remove the AT&T crap. If you want the phone unlocked you must either buy the unlock code or call AT&T since their supposedly giving them out for free-no contract.
It doesn't matter what ROM your running and whether or not you have HSPL sim unlock is hardware and you must get that code.
Hi gents,
I ve got a sk17i , branded T-Mobile, servis menu says: Bootloader Unlock Allowed: NO
I want to put CM11 but I have to unlock bootloader first. Is there any possibility to unlock bootloader?
Thank you so much for help

I had the same situation I went to the guy, he took off me simlock and unlock the bootloader unlocked this way :laugh:
Only removing SIM-lock is not enough.
Depending on when your phone is manufactured, it may be possible. Check the manufacturing date, it is under the battery. If it is before 12W11 (year 2012, week 11), then it is possible. Otherwise, no.
There is 11W36. Do you know some tutorial for unlock this "unlockable bootloader" ?
isn't it dangerous? does it work?
I did it via wotanserver, but it's not free.
No homemade way??
Hello everyone, I hope someone has an idea if I can unlock the bootloader or its impossible, because I've been trying more than a month to find a way to unlock my bootloader to root the phone but not a single chance and my phone is Canadian was locked to bell but I unlocked the phone.
Thanks
I'm planning to import a brand new Japan version of Pixel 6 from a shop. I was told that the phone is not locked to any specific carrier and can be used on any network. Since the phone is not carrier locked, is that mean the bootloader can also be unlocked? Is there any relation between locked carrier and locked bootloader? I wanna buy a phone which can have unlocked bootloader. The shop people said they won't be able to check OEM Unlocking status.
you can unlock the bootloader. I have Japanese version and i changed the model to International and again locked it.
Have a look here.
Cheers
Tom
