Question How to unlock Realme GT 5G international version's bootloader? - Realme GT

Any tutorials out there or here that instructs on unlocking the bootloader for this phone? Again, I am looking for the international version's tut, not the CN version.

the same realme deep testing app does work for realme gt international version bro. Just download it and accept, then it will reboot to fastboot just do fastboot oem unlock its done,

I might have misread the comments, but why in here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/root-realme-gt-gt-neo-easily-tested-on-chinese-variant.4290569/, they say only tested in CN version? I don't want to risk buying a phone only to find out it is non-rootable, or testing something not officially being mentioned in https://c.realme.com/in/post-details/1248075024070344704 that might hard brick my device. Also, I read that keeping the bootloader unlocked will disallow fingerprint scanning from working, as I was intended to keep my bootloader unlocked forever, because I don't to contact Realme servers everytime I want to confirm my submission in the Deep Testing app (I don't want to rely on having Realme support my device in their servers, as one day they might pull the plug out, and I can no longer get Realme to verify my device using this app).

I contacted the Realme EU support and they said that Realme has no plans on providing unlock codes for EU models. They apparently only offered this for a few models on Indian market, so I'm not sure if it applies internationally, although imo, it sounds like it. What a shame.

What a shame. Such a good cheap phone is out of my options now . I guess I have to bite it and buy OnePlus 9 now (OnePlus no longer a flagship killer ).

I think the same thing happens with the Realme 7 pro. You had to change the dialer to change to India. So if I could unlock it .. It would be nice if it could be done with the European realme gt

So, can you change the dialer with the EU version and the deep test app would work too?

I think that if the method that was used in the realme 7 pro could be applied. I have tried it but have not been successful. You would have to know the engineer codes to change region. I guess they must be different on each terminal.
Here you have the manual that I use in the relame 7 pro.
https://telegra.ph/Desbloversa-Bootloader-Realme-7-Pro-02-12

If someone could find how to change the region in the realme GT from engineer mode, I think it would be the solution to be able to unlock.
Here are some codes that I found in case they could be usable

On the realme 7 pro it works. It would be a matter of being able to test it in our realme. I can not find any engineer code that allows us

Buy a Oneplus 9R. It goes perfect with the qualcomm 870. I already have it unlocked and it has the recovery options that I want in case of disaster. It is a very good smart

I wondered if it was a problem with the Google dialer not accepting the codes. Did you try a different dialer esp the realme or oppo dialer?
People also say the fact that it's coming to India should be good news for bootloader unlocking.

Have you tried using a VPN to route traffic through India, and unlocking the phone?

Can someone send me a build.prop file from the system partition?

I don't have the phone yet lol. I'm not gonna risk buying a phone, only to find out it's hopeless to root it.

Not tested:
https://www.getdroidtips.com/unlock-bootloader-realme-gt-5g/

Has anybody been able to unlock the bootloader on the global variant? I have to pick between the Realme GT and the Poco F3 and would prefer the first because of the headphone jack, but if it's not possible to unlock the bootloader the phone would be almost useless to me.
What about previous Realme phones, is it possible to unlock the bootloader for all of them or are there some models where this is not possible? If the company has a good track record then we could assume that some day it will be possible to unlock the bootloader of the GT too.
I keep reading about some deep testing app or in-depth test app needed to unlock the bootloader, does anybody know where it comes from and who the developer is? All I could find was downloads on random websites and the whole thing seems sketchy.

Not buying this phone given the sad state of unlocking and sources.
I'm just here to check how this phone is doing in development and seems like it's doing terrible.

Sprint galaxy S9 plus SM-G965U no OEM Unlock toggle

hi i have a galaxy s9 plus from sprint i show up the Developer Option but there is no toggle for OEM Unlock
how to fix that?
Android 8
Model number : SM-G965U
Software version : G965USQU1ARB7
Hardware version : REV1.1
Build number : R16NW.G965USQU1ARB7
i haven't install the system update yet
Bro, this question was asked for like 100 times. SNAPDRAGON VERSIONS DONT HAVE oem unlock option in developer options. Bootloader cant be unlocked in Snapdragon version.
does that mean I can't root my sprint galaxy S9 plus?

For now, That is exactly what it means.
Apparently I am a spammer (couldn't register), so I'll try here. I notice the G965F and G965F/DS run Exynos 9810 and the G965U the Snapdragon. I want to unlock by bootloader, flash ROM, etc etc so is giving up the bands available to the G965U that big of a deal? Or should I wait for some smart ppl to figure out a way to unlock the Snapdraon ones (is that possible or just not done yet?) ? Thanks much!

And 100 times it's been answered incorrectly.
All snapdragons are not permanently locked... There absolutely are unlockable snapdragon s9/s9+s, just not 96XUs. The SM-G9600 and SM+G9650 are both snapdragon and also have unlockable bootloaders
Are you... ‘The One’?
Ah man. I’ve been searching for an answer since I got this SM-G965Uxxx. I’m kinda frustrated about this. Either way, wish I could help. I’m a developer but I’m not sure theirs much I can do but ya never know. I would love to hear of a savior that unlocks this s9+. Thanks for even pursuing it. The first one to do this will be looked upon like a savior of the snapdragon(G965U) people.
sc0rp1 said:
the g965u version of the s9+ is unlockable but complicated. the combination rom has OEM unlock available in the Dev options.
im working on a permanent patch, its very much so still a work in progress. any devs willing and capable of helping please PM me or you can start on your own
hope i put someone on the right direction.

This was also available on the S8 It has nothing to do with bootloader unlock all oem unlock does in Combo roms it shut off FRP If you can get the toggle to stick properly as with S8 you had to turn it on and off like 50 times to get the security popup to popup....
We have been researching this for a while now

You need to enable developer option on your device. From system go to "about phone". Click build number a few times (5 times I think). the developer option should appear in system option. (weird - you already pointed out the developer mode but it's not there). Try search through setting though.
But I never bought 1 from China, it might not what as I pointed out - because of different market? Idk.

I bought a model COL-AL10, with 6gb of RAM and 128 of Internal Storage, the seller said it had International ROM, and factory unlocked, but he lied, its neither, or maybe because of the ROM the Network doesnt works, i dont know really, i just want to know if its possible to fix this? and if so, how can i do it? for start, does this version (6gb of RAM and 128 of internal storage) exists?

well all ROMs are international with more languages, Honor doesn't have Chinese and Global ROM, they have specific ROMs for each market but they are pretty much equal and it is SIM unlocked, so they haven't lied really, of course you have to do bootloader unlock by yourself
as for bands, check phone compatibility with your network, you should really had check this before buying and not now

Hello everybody! I'm a new here, and I'm not expert. I also bought Honor 10 col-al10 Chinise Version. I know in settings i can choose English, but i don't like chineese apps. I would change complete ROM. I tryed use Firmware Finder but find only CN version.
Please help me.
You can remove/disable all chinese apps(just the yellow pages you cant).
So its not a big deal, its almoast the same, just 98% english and some chinese text in some things.

In theory you will have to flash european vendor. This will switch your firmware but... I can not promise if it will work. Or maybe to say it bettet it wont transform your device in a beautiful brick

Latest, working Mate 10 Bootloader Unlock Methods?

I see Huawei isn't providing unlock codes anymore, so I've been researching options before purchasing this phone. Having a rooted, unlocked phone with TWRP is rather important, imho.
It looks like this person successfully used DC Unlocker for ~$4: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78665569&postcount=392
However, other people say "Funky Huawei" is the only working one, which is much more expensive: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78627440&postcount=6
I then see this post about firmware versions needed for DC unlocker to work, but for the Mate 10 "Pro" -- unsure if that also applies to the Mate 10: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-10/how-to/finally-unlock-bootloader-mate-10-pro-t3850111
Buying from here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Huawei-Mat...vHzekWP7zx0GEhBHmmrA:rk:1:pf:1&frcectupt=true
... I'm unsure what firmware I'd get & I don't know how much that would matter. I'm hoping someone could help clarify: does DC Unlocker currently work on this phone, and how much trouble is it...?
Thank you!

BLA is the pro....
HUC is the one recommend in the guide u mentioned... Just a DC Unlock alternative from same developers...!
For what I read... It is about the firmware youare on... Mine is old... I think if ur security level is beyond June 2018...u can be less fortunate with the HUC... But it is just 4 EUR.... If u really want to unlock.... Try it....
Only way right now is:
HCU by dc-unlocker. This will not work on firmware after June 2018 (check security patch).
Ministry of solution, this service might come back, it's currently down and cost $30....
FunkyHuawei, expensive as hell.
You can also void your warranty by opening your device up and flash board software with testpoint. This would allow you to use HCU while on board software. This is not recommended at all if you don't know what you're doing.
Edit: Hopefully your firmware is not updated. DO not update when you get it.

It is a refurb, so warranty is likely already run out. May you point me to instructions to flashing board software with testpoint, just in case?

It's using old bootloader so chances are high, at least
You usually get a refund from DC anyway.
I just hope it doesn't complain about Security Patch date without even trying.

This guy:
https://ministryofsolutions.com/huawei-bootloader-unlock-paid-service-html
... said only 8.1.0.110C567 & 8.1.0.111(C567) is "supported" for his method, and not mine (8.1.0.120(C567))
After giving my information to global-unlocking-solutions.miiduu.com, they said "Yes, order and wait for updates to finish", which I presume is related to their "WE ARE TESTING THE HUAWEI BOOTLOADER CODES NOW: AFTER TEST RESULTS ORDERS WILL BE PROCEED" message on their website:
https://global-unlocking-solutions.miiduu.com/bootloader-unlock-codes-choose-model-below
I also presume this is the same thing that has FunkyHuawei (still) down.
I did try doing the "read bootloader code" from DC unlocker (without buying any credits yet), just to see what would happen, and got this message:
Reading bootloader code...
unknown error (375)
I assume if it was due to not having an account, it would say invalid username or not enough credits.... so I'm worried this means DC Unlocker won't work.
So, I'm kinda stuck, I guess? I don't want to use the phone, since I will have to either reset it when getting a bootloader unlocked, or "give up" on getting a bootloader code and update to EMUI 9.
Hoping for any advice...
I had 8.0.0.129 on my usa mate 10 pro with December security patch purchased 4 credits from DC logged in and was able to get my bl unlock code.
DC Unlocker support came back saying "your error means that current version of android in your device has new security patch and is not supported yet."
So, looks like I'm already past the point of no return (aka no "easy" bootloader unlock code). My best chance at getting a bootloader unlock code is via IMEI methods like FunkyHuawei if they return, which firmware & security patch version don't seem to matter. My phone apparently is covered under a warranty, which I don't want to invalidate (which unlocking your bootloader does). So, even if I got an unlock code, I'd likely not use it for awhile. Considering all of that, and the desire to start using my phone... I upgraded the firmware planning to get EMUI 9 Pie (which I'm clearly not going to get via custom ROMs anytime soon). If FunkyHuawei or the cheaper "global unlock" options return, I'll consider trying them out... :-/

You had 8.0.0.129, while I had 8.1.0.120. There are more numbers than just the last 3.
I tried DC Unlocker, and it gave me an error that everyone on the forum said means your Android version is unsupported. DC Unlocker's support said the same thing.
I'm glad you got yourself a bootloader unlock code. I wish I could have... maybe if the IMEI method opens up again (which I doubt), I'll get one someday...

Hi @ante0 / all
I note from https://ministryofsolutions.com/huawei-bootloader-unlock-paid-service-html that they want $4 (not $30)
BUT
They are also stating that "Mate 10, Mate 10 Pro, P20 Lite, Huawei P Smart (These models only supported if have older firmware version)"
I am stuck with two new-ish Mate 10 Pro phones that fail with DC tools. See https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=78901016#post78901016
I'm guessing my phone has new-er firmware and that's why DC tools failing
Any suggestions?

That's only for old phones/old firmware. New unlock was here: https://ministryofsolutions.com/huawei-bootloader-unlock-service-all-new-models-new-firmwares
But it's closed. It seems to be closed for everyone now so no go.
DC will only work on phones with firmware on May 2018 or earlier (In most cases. Some custs do work on June/July but that only seem to be the case with carrier custs)
So you're out of luck...

Oppo Reno 3 Pro 5G Bootloader Unlock help

Hi Everyone,
I've recently bought a Oppo Reno 3 Pro 5G dual SIM from China and I would like to unlock the bootloader to flash an oversea version firmware (with GMS framework). I have enabled the Developer option and OEM Unlocking function and I am having difficulty to get into Fastboot mode. With the phone powered off, I press the volume down button + power button and it only boots into recovery mode. Can someone please point me to the right direction? I also need some help of finding the right firmware for this model and flashing tool. I found this firmware Oppo_Reno 3_Pro_5G_PCRM00_11_A.02_191215.ofp online and not sure if that would be the right one.
Thanks,
Joe

to enter fastboot mode you have to push volume button up and power, not volume down on this phone or you enter in adb shell on your PC the command "adb reboot fastboot"
BUT: I think, there are a lot of hints still not known by us users to unlock this oppo phone. We might like on Xiaomi phones need an oppo Account to unlock.
I myself didn't try to unlock yet. Does only make sense when a working TWRP is out
There was a note in the OPPO RENO forum about getting and running a file from OPPO, after 60 days.
For me the Chinese version is not good anymore, now I can't install any new app on this phone because it says that I have to log in to a heytap account. But if I want to log in, I have to give my Chinese phone number.. I don't have Chinese phone number of course. Any solutions to this problem?
Now the find x2 neo (cph2009eu) released as the global version, and I want to install it's software because it's 100% the same hardware if I know it well. But I can't. I have the firmware for it from the internet, but in a .ofp file, I can't flash it
Okay, now I found a method to install apps without signing in with a chinese number, so the global software is not urgent anymore, but it would be good anyway.
I tried to install the global software via qfil, but it gives sahara error. After a quick search I found that we have to unlock the phone's bootloader to flash the global rom.
But the chinese version that I have does not have fastboot mode, so maybe we have to wait until Oppo will unlock the phone's bootloader officially (probably we have to wait until the next Android/ColorOS beta)
I have bought this EU Version, but funny thing here: they disabled 5G. Mine has 765G, 12GB RAM, dual SIM but neither specified nor selectable 5G
Hi all,
I also own the Chinese version of this phone (PCRM00)
Looking to unlock the bootloader, install EU version of the ROM and also root..
Any help?
Thanks!
Hi,
the Oppo registration ist now available with a none-chinese mobile number. Seems they splittet the HeyTap and Oppo services so you can use an least the Oppo services.
Here is the software update of the global version
https://oppo-uk.custhelp.com/app/software_update_detail/p_name/Find+X2+Neo
It gives an error, so suddenly we cant install it simply from the original recovery
My variant is just the 128/8gb version, and maybe this also could be a problem, becouse the global phone has only 256/12 variant. So maybe with a 256/12 varint its woth a try

I have 12/256 EU Version (seems to sell in Poland), dual-SIM, 4G only (although SD765G).
Current Firmware reads CHP2009_11_A.08, March security update.
Is this a valid update or will it possibly bring 5G?

If you have the single-camerahole, 765G version, and the phone is CHP2009, this update maybe woth a try. The problem could be that Oppo dont allow to change the firmware in the official recovery, only update is possible, so if I try to install the global (CHP2009EU) on my PCRM00 (chinese) variant, it fails and dont install anything. And we dont have custom recoverys yet, and the chinese version dont even have fastboot mode to unlock the bootloader, so it seems impossible for me to install the global until Oppo dont unlock our phones bootloaders officially (for example for a beta upadate)
But if you already have CHP2009 software, maybe the update that I linked worth a try. If the recovery allows it..
If I know it well, the CHP2009EU (Oppo find X2 neo) have 5g modem, just like the chinese variant that I have (Theyre the same phone, but the software is different. I want the global software instead of the chinese becouse of Netflix HDR and Google assistant)
It is the single camera hole but 5G disabled- See Spec
I'd show you, but I cannot share screenshots here.
Would it reject update if it was not functional version or would I brick the device, if I flashed incorrect version?
The difference I see ist that X2 neo has single SIM and Reno3 pro has dual. I know from other brands, that this can brick the phone.

There's always a theoretical chance to brick your device when you modify the software, it's your responsibility. But I think there's more chance that the original recovery that we have won't allow you to update your software to the X2 neo's software. If you want 5g, you can try the Chinese variant's software, but I think the recovery won't allow the other softwares to install

I have it now for three weeks, no need for 5G, so better have a working than bricked phone currently.
Probably I'd play around in one year, when tools are more stable.
In fact I considered to search for an update on Polish Oppo site and found an update file for my Reno3 Pro, that was exactly the same as from your link and X2 neo.
So I did the update via Recovery, it ran through and landed with version .28.
It did not change anything on supported bands.
I remember from Sony phones, that bands are defined in NVRAM.
It seems that for all Reno3/X2 variants with 765G the firmware is the same, it is distinguished only by supported bands.

Can you send the link from this update? So we can install this on PCRM00 via recovery?

I just updated from Polish site to latest version:
https://oppo-pl.custhelp.com/app/software_update_detail/p_name/Reno3+Pro
Now I am on June 5th security level.
The former file from UK site is exactly the same:

Just tried the polish version on the chinese variant of the phone and it gave me an error.

I also tried it, dont work :/
I don't know if it's really helpful but i think I've read somewhere on the official website that 5g isn't unlocked yet and would be thru future updates.
I live in the Netherlands and my Reno pro 5g should arrive today.
I'm kind of lost by all the different variants though..
The find x neo is also for sale over here and it seems the same service expert a minor different front cam.
But here in the Netherlands they are both for sale but the neo is much more expensive.
Anyway, I'm excited as this will be my first Oppo.

General Convert Moto x40 (CN) to Motorola Edge 40 Pro (EU)

Hi,
after question on lenovo forum, here is my installation guide.
Warning:
I dont know what happen if you relock the bootloader after flashing, so dont relock it.
There will be no OTA updates, software update chanel is still retcn.
Every part of this instruction is done at your own risk!
Pro:
5G is now working for me in Germany
Multi-language
Requirements:
Unlocked Bootloader
PC with ADB and Fastboot Tool and Motorola ADB Driver
Download ROM: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=4279422670115730514
Download flashfile (you can skip this and do it manuelly): https://1fichier.com/?zd9n4g4vj0gf59577w64
Install:
Download ROM and flashfile and extract both in one folder
Unlock Bootloader
Boot phone in Bootloader (power off phone and start with power on + volume down)
run flashfile.bat
Any cons? Any bugs you're experiencing?
Also are you able to pass safety net with magisk? How can you later update the software if ota is not possible?
Much appreciate the description
You can change retcn to reteu
command there: fastboot oem config carrier reteu
After relocking the bootloader the safety net will pass?? Could please send a snapshot of the safety net status after flashing?

Have you sold already the X40? If 5G works on X40 , which one do you recommend? Oneplus11 or Motor x40? I have a same concern to loosing the safety net pass, and far as I know, the Edge 40 pro has 1-NanoSIM and 1-eSIM I am afraid to loosing the second SIM...

In my opinion Moto edge 40 pro is far better than op11 which I have now. But unfortunately I only paid 600£ for the global op11 and Moto is 800£, as the don't give any discounts. X40 is on AliExpress tho for 480£ so I might sell my op 11 and buy x40 and install global Rom, if there aren't any issues

Currently I am using X40. I am little bit afraid to unlock the bootloader but I will do it soon because I need 5G but also need bank apps to be running. I will let you know about the results. Based on another forums feedback with the relocked bootloader will solve safety net issue.. let's try

If there is the possibility to lock the bootloader after flashing global, I am 100% getting one again and sell my op11

I use it in UK and Poland. Bank apps work fine in both countries.
I didn't test 5g. Living in small village. x40 Chinese room.
great was thinking of getting the Moto x40 from AliExpress as it's far much cheaper than the global Edge 40 Pro
Does anyone know the difference between T1TR33.43-20-5 and T1TR33.43-20-15 firmware? A security patch maybe? I have now installed version .43-20-5 on my X40. Rooted with Magisk and safetynet passed. Can I just flash the newer version .43-20-15 via fastboot without losing data? Thank you for the effort.

Few questions after flashing EU FW and with bootloader unlocked:
Is fingerprint scanner working?
Is gps working?
Is wifi working?
OTA Updates are working with unlocked bootloader?
Does something change after bootloader re-lock?
Cheers

Everything is working fine. OTA updates haven't arrived yet so I can't say if it's working.
Anybody try to activate esim? Is it working?

Actually everything is working except Google wallet.
Even after relocking bootloader it is not working.
Do you know when/how I can enable OEM unlocking? Now it is grayed out (after relocking).

Great job, well done! Could you please check the banking app and share the picture if it is working fine?
Hey fellas,
I successfully flashed from CN to EU and locked the bootloader after. Safetynet is failed and i want to return to the stock ROM but the OEM unlock is greyed out for me. Do I have to wait till i can activate it again?

you might need to use the moto rescue and smart assistant toll to go back to original firmware
The flashing went well. At first there seemed to be no problems for me. Wifi, GPS, fingerprint etc all are working. But in the night the phone soft reboots every ~30min, which leads to 40-50% battery drop during the night.
Clean install doesn't help.
Waking the device every 15min seems to prevent reboots. First such test consumed 30% of battery during the night but I have to test it a bit more.
I tried flashing back the CN rom (2 releases), but now locksreen pattern/pin/password can't be set (the app freezes and then crashes).
Also the phone is not on the list of rescue software.
