Hello, Thank you for this proposal.
For now I have no idea of how to save the bootloader or the recovery.
But i think it was blocked because i have a bootloader locked and no recovery.
The only way seems to be a full write of the memory with the meizu tools.
I have test with a android rom but they don't work "token sign failed".
If you can upload the bootloader.img and the recovery.img, i this, you can save my phone

I have the exact same problem. And that 16 there in the screenshot gets incremented on every subsequent call to
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
until it reaches 256 or something, at which point the device shuts down.
Initially in fastboot mode my device would say that the bootloader is unlocked, so it was not like that from the start. But I locked it by mistake (lets say ) while trying to figure out how to make ubuntu-device-flash work (by shooting in the dark, mostly, rather than reading). Had no idea it will not let me unlock it after that.
Also before that there were some
Code:
fastboot flash all
so basically there is no OS no recovery, no nothing. Just barely getting the fastboot mode - otherwise totally useless.
Really looking forward for ideas

Help unlocking bootloader for Huawei Y6

I couldn't find anything specific for this phone. All the tools/videos were made for other Huawei phones, so I'm skeptic to try them out.
I'm looking for a tool for PC which will help me unlock the bootloader on my Huawei Y6. I already got the code from the official Huawei site.
Also, recommend drivers which I'll need.
if you already got unlock password for boot loader now what?

I need a script/exe whatever to input the code so I can unlock the bootloader from my PC from what I saw in the videos I watched.
Don't trust that.
Install minimal adb and fastboot from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
Go into that folder, press shift and right click, then click "Open command prompt here"
When it opens, write "fastboot oem unlock xxxxxxxx" where xxxxxx is the code you received.
It should say "waiting for device".
Shut down your phone, connect it to the PC and turn it on using VOL UP + POWER.
Fastboot should do it automatically and unlock your bootloader.

Thats nice, but you're requesting in the wrong site. Have you tried a google site request?
I just did this tonight on my Huawei Y6 ATU L11.
Follow this guide first: dc-unlocker.com/how-to-read-huawei-bootloader-unlock-code
Then do this:
dc-unlocker.com/free-huawei-bootloader-unlock-tutorial
It's not free but it's worth it imo as stock on this phone is quite bad.
Can anyone make a tutorial on how to unlock the bootloader on this huawei Y6 with/without unlock code. Though I best prefer w/o unlock but even with unlock code will do. Thakns.
Did anyone find a rooting method for y6 2019 pro??? I've hunted posts everywhere to no avail, also tried getting bootlocker unlock code directly from huwaei, however, apparently they stopped giving these out a couple of years ago, I'm using this y6 2019 pro just now but it's pretty whack and they won't even upgrade it to andy10. Fookers playing god with their bootloaders. Give us em? any luck with it guys n gals?
Can you send me the code?
Pls send me the code sir/maam i really do need it i dont have money to use dc unlocker or any other kinds of $ hugry programs
If your kind enough send it to my email ?

There is no code because huwaei do not provide unlock codes, therefore each device including the y6 2019 remains with a locked bootloader, sell it and buy a Samsung or pixel

Should I panic? Phone status already "unlocked" when bought new.

I ordered a Redmi note 4 through Amazon India, came out alright, all properly sealed and everything but one thing caught my attention is that on developer settings the phone unlock status says it's already unlocked! How can this be possible?
That's weird. Did you call a customer service centre? If I'd receive such product my first though would be to confirm if the Mido I got is a refurbished one or 1st hand. And even if it's one, then the Xiaomi guys should have relocked it... Maybe it's a software bug, try restarting. And the ultimate way to confirm is to use your PC, and you know the rest I hope.
Well, if you feel you can replace it (maybe) talk to amazon guys and confirm if they cover such thing in their replacement policy. Good luck.

How to check if it's refurbished via PC?
Maybe you have RN4x, it is default unlocked... You can check your box, if it is with chinese language you have 4x, if you have with english lang. it is RN4 Global version and it is locked default...
Edit: also check if it is Snapdragon 625 version or maybe it is MTK?

You have to check if the bootloader is really unlocked or not. For this download this zip - https://drive.google.com/open?id=13Sjej5zIJPm_yiJQOVR4rEocwbhDc9oh
Unzip in pc and inside the platfrom-tools folder hold shift and right click.
In the menu it should say, open command prompt here or open powershell here.
click on the provided item (whatever of both it shows)
now, boot your device in fastboot by switching it off and holding down the power and volume down. Once the fastboot mode is open, connect your device via cable to your pc.
Now if you opened a command prompt window then type in -
Code:
fastboot devices
This command will show the connected fastboot devices. If nothing is printed on screen on executing command, then try reconnecting.
then type -
Code:
fasboot oem device-info
But if you have powershell then type in
Code:
.\fastboot devices
and
Code:
.\fastboot oem device-info
This will return some data and now you have to check the first two parameters saying "device tampered" and "device unlocked".
If device unlocked says true, then that means someone had actually used the device before. and if device tampered says true, then definetly someone has tested out your device, by doing all kinds of stuff like installing roms etc.
Use the mi flasher and flash the most current xiaomi rom. Your rom is probably a vendor rom, which is bad.

Thanks for making it easy for me. ?
Sometimes sellers unlock bootloader to flash other roms version. It's usually on online selling where there is Chinese roms on devices and buyers want global version.
As allready ppl stated, check by adb fastboot to see if its really unlocked.

You should contact xiaomi for this. And the seller from which you bought it. Because 98% of companies aren't allowed to sell phones with unlocked bootloader. Just leave it as it is. Tampering it by yourself would mean that you yourself did something to phone, which u haven't (not much, what u did is ok) . So getting in touch with the company and the provider would be a better option.

Or you can just unlock the bootloader once again to possibly make the phone functional

You need to flash the phone in EDL mode. Take it to a service center or find online service which can do it remotely.
use this

I too am having the same issue.
I recently wanted to try Android 12, I took a chinnese version of it and my phone is unusable, literally all chinnese.
I want to downgrade, I enabled Debugging and Oeam Unlock in Dev options but I get the ''remote: 'Flashing Unlock is not allowed"" when I try to fastboot oem unlock, I tried different USB ports, I keep updating all my drivers for ADB but nothing is working. I'm panicking a bit cause I don't have a phone to use, and not many people work with ONEPLUS in my country.
If someone has an answer, please save me lol

have you tried the code above ??
cant you just download the official original firmware and flash that ? im not familiar with the oneplus flashing techniques, ive always had samsungs except for the htc evo 3d back in the day
I tried them all, nothing seems to work
I'm stuck at 'Flashing unlock is not allowed'. I've set up everything I need to in Developer Options, I made sure they're all enabled.
It's really weird, could it potentially be a software issue? The software itself will not allow me to unlock OEM even though the check is turned on?

how does the one plus flash firmware ? for samsung we use a tool called odin, do you not have a similar tool for your device ?
I don't recall having any toolkit like that, but in order for the toolkit to work.. do you need to have an unlocked bootloader?
Cause the main issue is that I can't unlock it.
i dont think so, if your flashing an official firmware, but for your device i cant be sure of that
?
did you try running your commands as an su , is your device rooted ? you could try sideloading an update.zip maybe
what does it say when you flash this command ? true, true false ?
C:\ADB>fastboot OEM device-info
maybe this will help https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...us-2-back-to-stock-100.3269543/#post-64279667

Just to check if your device is showing is oem locked or unlocked, it will display with a true or false option. I can't really advise to much as I don't have experience with that device
You could also try
fastboot oem unlock_critical
Not sure if that will work for your device though

If the flashing starts, and fails, the os would be overwritten and you wouldn't be able to boot. So what you mean is the process trys to start but fails, right yh then I don't know what else I can say to try and help, let's hope mtkclient is an avenue you can pursue

As far as using mobile data, MI account already recognized my device & successfully passed the "Add account and device"
During unlocking, I made sure to open a hotspot from the phone # which is registered with the MI account.
*edit: it's a Wifi only Pad.. so.. though I do have a choice of Wifi or hotspot during the unlocking process
I have also tried the exact unlocking method from technobuzz link you have provided. Thank you for sharing.

I was ecstatic!!! when i first saw the pic
I've got this.. pic with an unlock. Does it mean bootloader is unlocked?
if i choose the second option and enter WiFi information, then choose the first option, it boots as though factory reset has been done (goes through the initial setup) BUT all the data is there. and status shows it's STILL LOCKED.
Now the 2nd time, i let the locked icon stay and boot into fastboot and try installing TWRP, it failed :-(
this is the error i get:

upon connecting the cable to the device (in a fastboot mode) the Unlock tool does NOT see it as being attached eventhough the bootloader drivers are there and shows that device is connected. when i type "fastboot devices" my device shows up as well
*the global Mi Unlock tool takes me to the account info (where i can change password/email/other details
i've tried various versions of MI Unlock tool.. (including batch unlock ones) all give the same result. Just like to add.. i have successfully unlocked Mi Note 7 using the Mi Unlock tool (at the time I didnt have to wait eventhough there was supposedly a 7 day wait)

Have you enabled USB debugging?
Are you using a usb 2 port?
Is the Mi pad usb port 2 or 3?
The Mi Unlock folder must be at the root of the hard drive.
Try running Mi Unlock as administrator.
EDIT:
ANOTHER TOOL

Im so happy, NOSS8! Thank you ever so much!
moving the folder to C:\ must have done the trick AND running it as admin.
there's a 120hr wait then what recovery do i install when there are no officially supported ROMs either

Glad it worked but if there is no recovery or rom for this model, why unlock the bootloader?
You can install a stock Global or other rom but without locking the bootloader and rooting to have a certified play store.
