Thank You.
This does still work with Android 11 and Feb 2022 security patch.

I don't know if it's my device OR it's model specific (I'm using TA-1149, sold in LATAM), but the guide didn't work for me (after flashing unlock command, it just reboots and bootloader is still locked).
However, the method I used was all of the above, but changing "fastboot flashing unlock" to "fastboot oem unlock".
After that, my bootloader unlocked just fine.
Maybe useful for another variants of this phone or just for TA-1149?

Are you sure after you type "enable dm-verity" on CMD in the adb folder, you get respond "waiting-for-device"?
Because there's no "enable" command on fastboot.

Question OEM unlock

I have a T-Mobile US variant of S22+ but I can't find the OEM unlock in the Developer Options. Is there a way to get this phone OEM unlocked?
By unlocked, do you mean unlocking the SIM from T-Mobile? If so, then you need to call T-Mobile and request it to be unlocked.

[HEADING=1]Troubleshooting: OEM Unlock Missing[/HEADING]

Help Rooting Vodafone Smart x9

Hi there! I need some help, I am trying to root my device and need a boot.img, but I cannot find a Rom for the x9 anywhere online.
This is my first time doing this, I got this phone just to mess around with rooting. But maybe I bought a bad phone for it.
If there are no Flash Roms online, what are the next steps? Can I use a Rom for the e9 which released alongside this phone? Sounds like it wouldnt work.. but IDK.
Looking for help from the experts ^^
Any help is appreciated.
Finally found one! Took over 2 hours to download a 2gb file O,O but it's finally done.
Now I am having problems getting into bootloader mode.
In developer mode with both OEM unlocking and USB debugging enabled.
Used the correct cmd prompt (adb reboot bootloader) but the phone just restarts.
I've tried restarting while holding the volume buttons.
VOL Down = Factory Test Mode, nothing works as expected there.
VOL UP = A boot menu letting me select from ~10 options, one of them is Boot to Bootloader. Selecting that simply boots normal, nothing special.
I have followed three guides:
How TO Root Vodafone Smart X9 Magisk without TWRP Recovery
If your Smart X9 is rooted using Magisk without TWRP Recovery. You can control a lot of features such as you can remove unwanted software.
www.getdroidpro.com
Vodafone Smart E9 Unlock Bootloader with Fastboot Method
How to unlock bootloader on your Vodafone with Fastboot Method. You can install custom ROM, custom recovery, kernel, flash all data
www.mobilewithdrivers.com
All seem logical enough, many similarities between them. I just cannot get into fastboot mode.
I've seen LOADS of threads with this same problem on this forum. And none of them have any solutions. So I think this is the end of the road. If nobody has figured it out .. then I am just out of luck I guess?

Forget, your phone have only 3 buttons

Hi @joke19 !
I havnt seen any of the guides mentioning needing a certain amount of buttons :O
How does that factor in - does that mean it cannot be rooted for some reason?
Still having this problem, and I have followed a lot of guides to the letter. I cant see what I am doing wrong. Here's where I am:
Phone is visible on device manager and the drivers are up-to-date.

PC is fully up to date on Windows 10.
I've got the lastest up-to-date version of platform-tools.
I'm using USB2.0 with the correct wires.
The phone is in developer mode with USB Debugging and OEM unlocking enabled.
I'm using the correct command lines. adb devices & adb reboot bootloader work as expected.
But none of these will work: fastboot devices, fastboot flashing unlock, fastboot oem unlock.
I just get < waiting for any device >
Can anyone help figure this out? I must be doing sooomething wrong. Everything online says its a driver issue, but then again, all the guides on how to fix that driver issue have been followed and completed. The first bullet with the image should also sort of verify that.
Praying some wizard out there has the knowledge I need to get this working! ^^

Oh ..sorry QPR-2 Google update Can't make a phone call.
-No AOD on charging.
-We can't make R/W system cause its size will bigger than our SM-T22X dynamic partition.

the simplest way to unlock the bootloader is going into developer options and enabling OEM unlock. after that shut the tablet off and put it into download mode by connecting it to a PC and holding down both volume buttons. then you will get a blue screen that will tell you to press and hold volume up button to unlock the bootloader and that it will reset your device data. once your device reboots your bootloader is unlocked.
