Unlock Honor 9 STF-AL10 not possible. Pls help. - Honor 9 Questions & Answers

Hello Guys,
iam sitting here since about 8 hours and try to unlock my new Honor 9 which i received today. But its not working so i need your help.
My Phone bought in China:
Device: Huawei Honor 9
Model No: STF-AL10
Android OS: 7.0 Nougat
EMUI Version: 5.1
Firmware: B190
Build Number: STF-AL10C00B190
Memory: 6GB / 128GB
I've installed all related driver, adb etc. Got my unlock password within 2minutes. Ive also checked that with IMEI 1, IMEI 2 and the MEID. In every case i received the same password so the password cant be wrong.
But when i try to unlock my phone with "fastboot oem unlock MYCODE" i receive the message "FAILED (remote: check password failed!)".
I noticed that i cant see the message "frp locked" on my phones screen and i really wonder why. Of course i enabled usb debugging but i dont have any oem unlock option under developer settings. Its not there. But ive read a lot and removed my fingerprints, my pin and made a soft reset. Still not working. Made a hard reset and still the same. At first i tried with B175 firmware. After that HiSuite offers a update (B190) and ive upgraded my phone. But still the same problem. Cant unlock my phone. And the question is why?
Ive made some pictures but iam not able to post them because iam new....

Nobody can help?
Here are the pictures ive made:

Your main issue lies in the total absence of oem unlocking in dev options. Fastboot commands towards that are hence useless. Like your model came with a non-unlockable bootloader... Weird. Mine mysteriously had its option in developer greyed out and unmodifiable, with a frp locked state in fastboot all of a sudden, even though I already had unlocked it... Luckily I already had TWRP and flashing Oreo cleared all my issues even retrieved capacitive buttons. As of now I have no idea to help you mate, only contacting Huawei support as suggested by them o if having issues with bootloader and/or unlocking code. Tell if you find a way, good luck.

Thank you for your answer. Yes, these china models always come with no FRP options.
But i dont read that there really exist some Honor 9 phones that are not unlockable. Hmm

Problem solved in the meanwhile.
Huawei website gave me wrong unlock code (unlock password). But i was able to extract the right one with DC tools.
My Honor 9 is unlocked, rebranded and rooted now. And iam happy.

Bootloader question

Can anyone confirm if Euro version of G5 has unlocked bootloader ?
If yes are we going to see same leven of developement as 6p for this phone ?
I'll be checking when I get mine.
Could well be locked with option to unlock through LG dev site like EU G4 though...
i seriously cant wait for the arrival of mine..
ofc i'll check for flashability
well i've got mine now. i have yet to figure out if its locked or not.
isn't there some fastboot keypress combination anymore? seems like i'm unable to get into fastboot at all.
ok.. installed the lg usb driver..
using adb reboot fastboot..
reboots to android
using adb reboot bootloader..

From the LG Developer Forum:
Hello,
We are planning to support bootloader unlocking for LG G5 for the European market with model number H850 soon.
It will be available this month.
When it's ready, we will let you know via our website.
Thank you.

The EU version is locked out of the box, but some folks are getting email responses from LG stating that they have plans to unlock that version in the near future. They also state that there are no plans to unlock any other variant.
uh. two posts since i edited mine. i managed to get into the bootloader and provided a screen scan (using a scanner.. srsly..)
How come the fastboot oem unlock or fastboot flashing unlock commands don't work on the international model? or is it just me!

i just thought it was similar to the t mobile version where you could unlock however dm verify stops from flashing anything
T-Mobile USA variant has a "semi unlocked bootloader" because you can Unlock it successfully but only write commands on fastboot are disabled
.... Still for few time

[Help] Unable to Unlock Bootloader

I am getting an error text in Chinese, which I can't read nor understand. Can anyone help me out here?
What happened is I unlock the bootloader then flashed new PIE Beta. But stupidly enough I didn't notice that the re-lock option was enabled. Now here I am, unable to unlock the bootloader.

And I'm locked ever since....above is the link to my sad story where i end up re-locking my bootloader and not able to figure out how to get it unlocked again!
I even ended up deleting my old account leaving with an obsolete sim card number to which i can't even add any more mi accounts!
So i had created a new one(mi account)...reset my poco, added the new account, associated the device with the new account, tried unlocking from the mi unlocker....no luck...it was 72 hrs of relentless waiting followed by disappointment.
I'm now on stock v8.11.15 and the most i could do to relieve myself of the crappy mi bloatware is to hide the apps i despise..such as mi video, music, google play music, movies...etc from the launcher.
Still i haven't lost hope...i had created an mi account from a friend's sim card and I'm yet to slap it in my phone n try the new account.
Let's hope for the best.

Question Error when trying to unlock bootloader

Hi all.
I'm trying to unlock the bootloader of my 8 Flip but am having a couple of issues. First one is that there's no "OEM Unlock" option in my Dev settings. I've tried running the official unlock tool anyay, and it errors out saying "Failed to unlock your device, please try again later.[11006]"
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Solved it - Just had to turn wifi off and use mobile data and it worked
My friend has an error code when unlocking the Bootloader. Do you know why?

Why are you trying to unlock the bootloader? Are there custom roms available?

To root the phone
where did you buy the phone? Some vendors sell phones that cannot be rooted.
You can see it with the app CPU-Z in System section if you see bootloader : no, you can't root
I was just about to unlock the bootloader to try to dump the recovery.img and use that to create a twrp image.
But there is a big warning saying:
Before you download, install, and use the Unlock Device App (“Service”), you understand that you need to take all risks in terms of quality and performance of the Service, including but not limited to: once you trigger the Service, you’re not able to recover your ASUS products to the original status at the time of manufacturing (“Original Product”) anymore. Original Products which is used with the Service (“Changed Product”) will no longer be regarded as the Original Products. The software updates will not be available to the Changed Product, and the digital content in the Changed Product may no longer be used. (...)

Does this mean I would not get security updates and later the Android 13? I only want to get twrp to be able to root the device. but losing the OS updates would be a big no-no.
Are those who have unlocked it getting updates? Can anyone confirm this?

Probably someone tried to root it and made RMM to change to prenormal. Have you tried checking if RMM/KG is showing prenormal in Download mode?

I'm trying to root it
Can i fix this problem );
Yes, typically the RMM resets after 7 days. There might be a quick fix which I am unsure of, so keep digging on xda.

I just got the Edge Plus (named that here in the US) Same phone as this, and mine is like this too, brand new out of the box like this.
Having the same issue, greyed out OEM unlock button.
Brand new, out of bocx.
Also when I go to the motorola site, it says not eligible to be unlocked, which is bizzare. Its fully unlocked!
My guess is it takes some time for the button to not be grey, according to what I read here.
Still need to try to get the code though from the moto site.
Fairly confident the Oem unlock button will be active in a few days.
Does anyone button greyed out get the Oem unlock code? I can't get that. Fully unlocked device.
ok was able to get the motorola unlock code, about 24 hours after I got the phone. Still, cant get the OEM unlock to toggle. Tried multiple reset options and nothing worked (sim, no sim, wifi, no wifi).
Did a factory reset and it worked!

Unlocking help

Hello, I've bought a redmi 5 plus and i was hoping to get a custom rom on it, but as I've connected my sim card to unlock it, it doesn't seem to accept it. It fully detects it, even its carrier name, but just can't use it. At all. Does anyone know if there could be a fix for this? Or maybe there is a way to unlock the phone without sim card? Thanks.

I can help you unlock your device.
You need to flash global firmware on the device in edl mode.
You need to disassemble the device to flash the firmware.

I'll try reflashing it tomorrow morning.
Also, I don't think that post is relevant to what i need help with, my phone won't use the sim at all, it's not a problem that my internet is locked or something. It finds the sim, but i can't call or use internet.
where do i find the tutorial? i cant find the xml file for flashing
Nevermind. @mvikrant97 ive flashed the phone with global firmware through edl test points. Now what?
Still in need of help..
