BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED

Hello guys, I have read every single post in this thread and I learned that only way to upgrade this device is to somehow change region/oeminfo of this tablet and then you'll be able to flash Android 8 ROM. There seems to be only one decent avaliable option on the internet (Huawei Mediapad T3 10 Wi-Fi hw eu AGS-W09 Agassi-W09 8.0.0.26(C432) Firmware 8.0.0 r1 EMUI8.0 05016DLC).

I'm able to read my OEMINFO partition in UnlockTool via EDL no problem. There's also an option to write OEMINFO partition. So I'm wondering if anyone who has AGS-W09 already on Android 8 could provide their OEMINFO.bin ? Correct me if I'm wrong but I think it could work.

Also I have read about modifing tablets own OEMINFO.bin via some python script but that's something I don't think I could handle. If there's anyone this kind to modify the file for me I'm adding my OEMINFO.bin and I'll be very thankfull. Also I'll be thankfull for any suggestions on this topic.

Any easier form to root this tablet?, cannot understan the dc-unlocker steps lol, i want to debloat it.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kalleAG:
I know there's not been any activity in here for a while but i don't think the EMUI 8 variant is rootable, i have both the EMUI 5 AGS-W09 and one on EMUI 8, same exact tablet, it just wont let me unlock the bootloader, tried using HCU Client as reccomended and no luck (even after spending money on a license.) The EMUI 5 one unlocked just fine though.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mpamphslinuxrock:
Hello to everyone. So how can I unlock the bootloader?

I have the ags-w09 model. I have already done it in settings, but in fastboot mode, I am taking

ps, I also have difficulty going into fastboot mode vol down + power... continuously restarts...

In fastboot screen I see PHONE Locked (green letters) and FRP Unlock (red letters)

EMUI v5.1

Also the tablet does not support sim card so practically there is not IMEI...i think...only SN

Hi, how do i unlock the bootloader for mediapad t3 10 ags l09?

thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mcbbaz:
anything about unlock bootloader?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mcbbaz:
what about the bootloader unlocker, can anyone help me?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] snorhaar:
I managed to unlock the bootloader of my AGS-W09 but couldn't get any further. I didn't succeed in installing twrp and this is the only way to obtain root.

So whoever needs this info:

Make sure you installed adb and fastboot. Install the HiSuite, so the usb drivers are present. In the tablet: Set the developer options available and grant usb debugging. Make sure your pc can have adb acces. In developer options enable oem unlocking. Your tablet will reboot and wipe all present data (factory settings), any media card is unaffected. Install dc-unlocker. Obtain 4 credits. Search for 'bootloader code' in dc-unlocker. Get the code and keep it safe aside. Reboot your tablet in fastboot mode. Unlock the bootloader with the propriate command together with the code you obtained in dc-unlocker. Done, your bootloader is now unlocked!

Sorry for any possible mistakes and wrong pronunciations ..

Hello,

My Huawei "MediaPad T3 10 / AGS-W09" uses EMUI 5.1.3 with Android 7.0.

A newer version exists with an official rom or custom rom?

Thanks for your answer.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] PuszekReksio:
can someone give their emmc dump of the AGS-W09 because mine is hardbricked and when i reflashed it it just got stuck at tux logo and trying to boot into fastboot resulted in the same thing but with "FASTBOOT MODE" in the top left corner

[Miscellaneous Android Development] superg3:
Hi all,

I own a Huawei MediaPad T3 10 AGS-W09 from Spain. It is bootloader unlocked (I spent 4USD for it).

I messed it up, and now it is with a incorrect ROM and FRP locked.

The ROM seems to be for the L09 because there is a dialer button.

The actual status is:

at boot a message shows "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted"

I can not open the settings ( opens and close inmediately )

No camera button

Triangle, circle and square buttons are not centered in the screen.

I can not install TWRP

I do not wknow what ROM install and how to do it.

I'm attaching some screenshots taken from the hidden ProjectMenu with info and from the device itself.

Hope you can help me. Thanks in advance.

[MENTION=4377602]zacho56[/MENTION] They said me the same s**t here in Switzerland, I tried again the day after with another chat's operator and I got the code.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zacho56:
Man, I can't even get the USA or Canadian Live chat to open now. I click the icon and nothing happens. Tried other browsers also. F*&%! Did you contact the swiss huawei? Or just Global? Or the UK? I am getting desperate... I am on the phone with them now.. Hopefully they can help me.. -.-

Edit: Annndddd just got off the phone with the support guy. He said that I should contact the place I purchased it and see if they have the inlock code. I almost laughed at him. Then he said that he doesn't have access to 'tools' to get it for me so he said that I could send it in and they could 'fix' it for me. I told them there's nothing wrong with it, I just wanted my unlock code. The guy sounded like he didn't even know what a bootloader was. My god.....
[Miscellaneous Android Development] djclark25:
So I had the notification yesterday evening that a new system update was available. It downloaded, rebooted into TWRP, had lots of red writing in Russian. When it said it had finished I rebooted the system and got a notification that the software update was unsuccesful and to try again.

Guessing wont be able to do system updates with TWRP installed?

[Miscellaneous Android Development] syrisara:
Just for information,

Huawei T3 10" mediapad (only wifi)

Android 7.0

EMUI 5.1

After some serious waiting for the bootloader unlockcode I finally received my code after 3 chat sessions, 2 mails and 8 days waiting.

Mails send to UK, I'm from the Netherlands. Received my mail from mobile.uk@mail01.huawei.com.

After unlocking the bootloader, which was easy I started with flashing TWRP version from some russian dev. but that did not give me osb-otg which is needed for storing Magisk 16. (internal storage is encrypted and not readable in TWRP)

For flashing I used fastboottool 2016 from somewhere on the net.

After flashing TWRP, version from post #17 in this thread, everthing worked well. Magisk 14.6 gave me some flashing trouble so used latest 16.0 and that worked well for me.

In short:

Enabled USB debugging and OEM unlock in Developer Options

Rebooted into fastboot and unlocked bootloader

Used fastboot to install TWRP (from post # 17, the english version) (TWRP 3.2.1-0_14.01.2018.zip)

Rebooted into recovery (use power + volume up)

Flashed Magisk V16 latest version.

Rebooted, installed Magisk Manager latest version. 5.6.1 (105)

Now rooted, verified by rootchecker and all apps using :)

Hopefully that this can help someone,

Is TWRP-nemo for MediaPad T3 only?

Hi, I have a SLA-L02 single-SIM smartphone, vendor HW and region EU (P9 Lite Mini for European Union), cust C432 and build B133.

Is TWRP-nemo suitable for my device? Same SoC, same OS, same EMUI. Can I flash this custom recovery on my smartphone?

Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zacho56:
I've still not had any luck getting my unlock code...I'm getting tired of this. If I can't find a way to get it soon, i'll have to sell my tablet and buy another brand. EMUI is WAY too limiting and I can't stand it. If I could just get my bootloader unlocked I could then work on a ROM myself. But this DAMNED bootloader.... >,<

Going back to the OTA updates. Having now got a Huawei Mate 10 pro and being on the forums for that phone, it looks like to do OTA updates you have to have the stock recovery installed. I have TWRP installed on mine, is there an easy way to reflash the stock recovery so I can then run the OTA?

I suppose you should be able flash original recovery extracted from stock ROM as linked in first post.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SullyMind:
Link2sd

Does someone have link2sd worked on this tablet ? The second partition of the SD card is not found, even in fat32 because ext2 is not recognized by the stock kernel. The only way that I had it worked is by mounting myself (mount command) the partition in /data/sdext2 but on reboot, it disappears. So I wanted to add a script that will run on boot time but I don't know how to do it in stock rom.

---------- Post added at 11:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:19 AM ----------

I think that OTA update removes root. Moreover, TWRP will block you trying to install the update.

So if you want to install the update, you should return to stock then update and install TWRP and root the device.

I read also that you could install it manually but I don't know exactly how.

Hope that it helped.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] KokkoM:
Unpack stockrom and flash stock recovery.img via fastboot or flashify apk, then remove Magisk via app and reboot. Its reboot couple times and start Erecovery, via Erecovery it download newest rom and install it.

Edit: it only update with erecovery, apps and files stay only root is gone. i relock bootloader, then its resetting too.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zacho56:
Does anyone have any tips for me on how to get my bootloader unlock code? The other member has not gotten in touch with me to help, and this tablet is really starting to piss me off. Can't even use the fkin SD card to store most apps on, and apparently since EMUI 5.0 the option to force link apps has been removed without root. If someone could show me their chat logs on what they did to get their unlock codes. Anyone from the USA or Canada get their bootloader unlocked? It seems that only europeans have been able to get their unlock code, unless i'm mistaken.

Problems

Hi All

Unlike some of you guys, I got my unlock code fairly quickly in 10 days. It did take 2 sessions with the online advisor.

So, now the tablet is unlocked, and the english version of TWRP (post #17) is installed. This is as far as I can get.

I have copied Magisk (V14 as described in post #12) ready to install it, but all of the folders have just random letters for names so I cant select it.

I still get the random letter names when the tablet is connected by usb cable when in TWRP, however in 'normal' mode i can see the files and folder names correctly.

The only thing that did happen, was once I'd unlocked it and it did its factory reset, Windows (7- 64bit) detected it ok and installed the usb drivers, I got an error when it came to the ADB driver and it didn't get installed.

Anybody got any clues?

Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Thanostsak:
That's because the internal storage is encrypted. The easiest way is to use a microsd card and install magisk from there.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MrPeaski:
Hi Thanostsak,

Thank you that worked.

I tried V14.6 but it failed, V16 works and after installing Titanium backup I confirm I have root.

I'm no stranger to ADB and android as I have rooted Nexus 4, 5 and 7 without problems before so was stump when all I could see was a jumble of rubbish.

Thanks for your advice
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zacho56:
Is your device US made? If so, would you be able to link me to the page with the live chat you used? I'm still unable to find any help..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MrPeaski:
Sorry, I'm in the UK and used the link in the first post to contact the live chat.

If its any help I didn't use a geographic email address (i.e @co.uk) when leaving my details

The unlock code was emailed from support@huaweitech.zendesk.com

Good luck
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zacho56:
Just wanted to thank you for that email address. After weeks and weeks of calls, live chats, emails of them telling me that they could not give me mu unlock code due to the 'risks' and others telling me that they physically could not give me the code due to my geographical location, THAT email address got me my unlock code literally within 2 emails. Here is what all the other emails gave me (actual reply to my request):

We do apologize for the inconvenience you are experiencing, however, it is our duty to inform you that Huawei Canada does not provide codes to unlock the bootloader, root the device or provides any tool/code to modify the phone internally. We kindly inform you that this action can potentially "brick" the phone or in other words, renders the phone completely unusable and voids the warranty service and device support. We have no control over how unlocking the bootloader or rooting the phone, will affect your device.

We understand that you might be able to start the request to get the bootloader unlock code from our EMUI website, regrettably, your device does not qualify to receive this code, since the Huawei Canada warranty policy limits us to do not provide this code in order to prevent future inconveniences to our consumers.

and the second email I contacted the same time I did the above one told me:

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience, however Huawei USA does not provide codes to unlock the bootloader under any circumstance. We kindly inform you that this action can potentially "brick" the device or in other words, renders the phone completely unusable and voids the warranty service and device support. We have no control over how unlocking the bootloader will affect your device.

I was infuriated by this time and lost all hope. Then I got that email address and said i'd try it once more and voila! The day after I requested it I got this in reply:

Dear Zachary,

Thank you for contacting the Huawei Customer Care Team.

Regarding your query, we inform you that we have requested the Bootloader code for your device. As soon as we receive the answer, we will get back to you.

Best regards,

Bianca

So, I just woke up to my unlock code in my email. Thank you SO MUCH Mr. Peaski!!

:D

(Now I can work on a ROM for this device)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MrPeaski:
Fantastic, I'm glad I could help.

I haven't done much with mine, only remove some of the bloat that I wouldn't use, and install a system wide ad blocker (AdAway, if you need it I think I can post the apk here.)

Good luck with the ROM, I'll keep an eye out for it

[Miscellaneous Android Development] zacho56:
Same story with me. Version 14.6 of Magisk would not flash for me. Kept betting errors about not having enough space on the boot partition. But Magisk 16.0 worked first shot, not one single error. I've attached version 16.0 for anyone who wants it.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mgnetdevil:
When i asked for the unlock code in live chat the operator asked me if i have tried the EMUI website.

I got my code without waiting time. Just had to enter a lot of numbers. Can't post links yet so just text: emui . huawei . com / en / unlock_index
[Miscellaneous Android Development] CryptLoad:
Worked flawlessly for me with Magisk-v16.0.zip on the B256 Firmware-Build
[Miscellaneous Android Development] 19bighead:
thanks for the guide, is it possible to insert the Rom Stock for the model without sim?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] steveb099:
Which data did you enter? I got the WiFi only model (AGS-W09), but the unlock page needs an IMEI, can't choose WiFi tablet for "since EMUI 5.0".

If I choose "before EMUI 5.0", I can set "Tablet-Wi-Fi" and don't need to enter an IMEI, but when I send this information, just a cleared unlock form is displayed and nothing else, no unlock code.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] 19bighead:
install a dialer app to derive in model number, use the chat to receive the unlock code
[Miscellaneous Android Development] steveb099:
I used a dialer app to get product id, but it doesn't give me an IMEI number.

Chat ist not working, it keeps telling me "The specified site (consumer.huawei.com) is not being monitored by WhosOn. A chat session cannot be started."

Any other ideas?

[Miscellaneous Android Development] MrPeaski:
This may help some of you.

The WiFi only versions won't have a IMEI number.

When you get asked for the tablet info (finally) all you need to give are:

Your name

Email Address

Device Model (eg Huawei Mediapad T3 10 (AGS-W09) (WiFi))

Serial Number

IMEI and Product ID are only needed for the non WiFi versions.

Thats strange. Not disputing what you're saying but here is part of the transcript from my initial webchat (I called myself Spuggy for this!)

16:22:52 - Spuggy said : Can I have a bootloader unlock code please

16:23:09 - Thea said : Yes of course, please complete the following :

16:23:15 - Thea said : Name:

Email:

Device model:

Serial number:

IMEI:

Product ID:

You can find the Product ID by dialling *#*#1357946#*#* on your device.

16:23:26 - Thea said : If the device is Wi-Fi only, you don't need to complete the IMEI and Product ID field.

16:25:05 - Spuggy said : Name Spuggy, Email *********@****.com, device Huawei Mediapad T3 10 (AGS-W09) WIFI

16:25:22 - Spuggy said : where would i find the serial number?

16:25:35 - Thea said : You can find this on the back of the box or in settings -> about deivce

16:25:38 - Thea said : device*

16:26:39 - Spuggy said : serial number ****************

16:27:04 - Spuggy said : made a mistake

16:27:36 - Spuggy said : serial number ****************

16:29:15 - Thea said : Perfect! Thank you very much. I have escalated this and in 1-2 working days I will e-mail you with the bootloader unlock code :)

Being curious, I've just installed a dialler (ExDialer - Dialer & Contacts) to see what would happen and entered *#06# which should give the IMEI, All I got back was a blank screen.

Just tried something else.

Installed Device ID (by Evozi) this shows a lot of the hardware ID's etc, this does show an IMEI, but it is exactly the same as the serial number.

Useful?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] 19bighead:
in chat I was asked to install a dialer app, gave me a code that I entered and then transcribed the required number, after about a week I contacted and they gave me the unlock code

Nandroid backup of /data fails

Hi guys, congratulations on all the useful info in this thread. Following post #17, I have installed TWRP in the Huawei MediaPad T3. I had to use the russian image, as the english one is gone. After some effort, everything worked out nicely, and now the device is rooted with Magisk 16.0 installed.

There are, however, a couple of things that don't work in TWRP:

1) I get error messages complaining about "Failed to mount '/usbotg' (No such device)"

2) A nandroid backup of the /data directory fails with the message

"createTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255"

Other messages in this thread also refer to these problems. Have any of you found a solution?

Hello everyone,

After I read this thread, I installed TWRP I wiped out all of the ROM data on my AGS-L09 and I didn't backup of my data before. Unfortunately, ROM that I downloaded on the first page of this thread not working well, because the TWRP pretend that the zip file is not the correct format. Another option is tar.gz file, but TWRP couldn't do that. Also, I'm not quite understand how to use the script, I think the script is only for linux. I use windows 10 to flash it.

Please someone help me, my tablet only have TWRP recovery mode now, what should I do next?
