Bootloader Unlock for MTK device(MT6592) - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Greetings, I own a tablet that has MT6592 Chipset. It has CPU (Cortex A7) and GPU(Mali-450).
It runs on kitkat 4.4.2. I want to flash a Custom ROM on it.
I have the Custom ROM File, but i am unable to unlock the bootloader to install TWRP(Easy TWRP maker).
Using ADB i tried to unlock the bootloader.
I typed in the command : fastboot oem unlock ,
Then i get a message on my screen saying, "Press Volume up to unlock (This will void warranty)"
When i do so, it shows a fail message.
Image 1:
{
"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",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So any help would be appreciable
PS: I tried consequently 5 times, still no hope.

I still get the same fail message. Please give me a another solution. I need to unlock the bootloader to install twrp and then flash Custom ROM

I think you haven't installed correct fastboot drivers.

This "bug" is known at some MTK-devices. There are some solutions for a few devices, by using patched boot.img, but none for this. Did you find a solution yet?

Root for Xperia X with 34.0.A.2.292

I've just purchased a Xperia X with FW 34.0.A.2.292 installed. I'd like to root thid device and found instructions on this thread . I've downloaded the kernel file, successfully installed all required ADB Drivers from here and followed the instructions. Unfortunately i allways get the following error message:

I've also tried to use flashtool but get the same error message in flashtool.
Any ideas how to proceed?
allow OEM unlock option under development options
Thanks, i have no OEM unlock option allowed, still getting the same error message. Does this require an unlocked bootloader?

Ah OK. What's the best way to backup the Xperia DRM keys before unlocking the bootloader, and how to restore them afterwards?
it's currently not possible to backup DRM-keys so you will lose them. there are kernels with DRM-fix which will restore the lost functions after unlocking
i got a problem, checked OEM unlock, deactive my xperia function, but bootloader status still "not allow", idk but when i deactive "my xperia" its not need to use my google account(not like my other Z4), i thing cause of its so bootloader cant be turned : yes

Did you buy your Xperia sim-unlocked? If not, it probably comes locked by carrier and this won't let you to unlock the bootloader.

Fastboot tethered recovery error on T4 (Nokia N1)

Hey,
I recently got a cheap, slightly used chinese version Nokia N1. But because without the Google Services its pretty much useless to me, I want to root it and install a custom ROM.
I followed 2 tutorials:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-n1/help/nokia-n1-root-t3125771
and
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-n1/general/play-store-howto-t3118965
But I always get stuck on the part with the Recovery Launcher.
{
"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",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
To give some background, here are the steps I did:
Because fastboot and the launcher won't see my device if its in MTP or PTP, I disabled both. That seems to work fine.
I "unlocked" oem in the developer settings and also allowed USB debugging.
I started the Recovery Launcher with admin privileges and used option T4.
It boots into recovery mode, but I just get errors all over the place bacause the device is still locked. So i just typed "fastboot oem unlock". Then T4 again.
Thats where this error occurs. From what I read, this should put me into a CWM recovery session. But it doesn't. It just stays in the fastboot mode window.
I'm pretty new to this android modding thing, so don't expect to much knowledge from me.
with much thanks

The thing is, there are no other solutions out there I really know about. I searched google up and down and got no real result.
I think my problem is that my android version isn't 5.0.x, like almost every english tutorial suggests. It is 5.1.1.
oh God... my fault sorry

If you are unable to get into recovery mode does this mean bootloader is unlocked?

Hello.
How are you?
I have a phone Redmi 4x and I planned to root it. So after I purchased it , I checked if the bootloader is unlocked with two methods, from pc and from Setting menu and at both places , it seem unlocked.
I saw the device has no recovery mode installed.
So can someone please confirm if the bootloader is unlocked or no?
If you can't access recovery, that does not mean your bootloader is locked, they're 2 different partitions.
In fastboot, do "fastboot oem unlock" and see what that tells you.

Bootloader locked or not, recovery mode is always accessible. If you can't nail the button combination, use a method that will always word - adb
open adb
type:
Code:
adb devices
confirms your phone drivers are installed.
Code:
adb reboot recovery
you ll boot to recovery. If you can't see anything means stock recovery doesnt have an interface. Then just flash another recovery.
To check bootloader:
Code:
fastboot oem device-info
To unlock bootloader :
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
reboot:
Code:
fastboot reboot
to temporarily flash a recover.img :
Code:
fastboot boot "path/to/recovery.img"
Thats everything you need to solve your problem.
Hit thanks if it helped

You will have to find a stock rom for this device is the oem even released one. Just a heads up. Just because you got an android device doesn't mean it can be modded. Do your research first.

how do i install it
First thing to do is to check wether the bootloader is unlocked or not
If not unlock it
Get an official rom from huawei website
http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1276/g104/v83920/f1/full/update.zip
Use huawei extractor
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454
and extract boot.img+system.img+recovery.img
Then reboot in bootloader (vol - + power)
Connect to ur pc with proper drivers
use fastboot to flash them properly (fastboot ,drivers could be found in google )
In terminal
Fastboot flash boot c:\boot.img
Fastboot flash recovery c:\recovery.img
Fastboot flash system c:\system.img
Reboot u're now back to stock
Fastboot reboot

You have to take it to service center. Once you unlock bootloader, dont relock it unless the realme flash tool is available

they will fix it with fees or no
Last night I unlocked my bootloader and installed twrp recovery but somehow my mind changed so I thought to revert back changes and i download stock recovery of Realme 5 pro from somewhere(can't remember source) and after flashing it without checking it I ran a need command "fastboot flashing lock " and after that I rebooted my device and now it shows "the current image (boot/recovery) have been destroyed and can not boot " and now I can't even boot into fastboot mode to do something to revert back it .....At last, I'm here for suggestions on how can I make my device run normally.
