Well as all of you have seen, Nokia just provided official unlock method for the

Nokia 8. Maybe just maybe they'll provide unlock method for other phones too.

This guy is the Chief Product Officer of HMD Global(Nokia) Juho Sarvikas

https://mobile.twitter.com/sarvikas

He was the one that revealed that Nokia 8's bootloader can now be unlocked officially. But no word was given about other Nokia phones! Not yet!

But let's hope for the best!

Old Post!

Few days back an XDA post came up stating that

"August security update on Nokia phones blocks

the only bootloader unlock method"

"But what’ll happen once HMD Global drops official support for their older budget and mid-range devices, which makes up the bulk of their portfolio? Without custom ROMs to unofficially update them, users will eventually have to ditch their perfectly functional smartphone if they want to stay up-to-date against some (but not all) of the new vulnerabilities that get discovered."

So, I guess.. those who already unlocked bootloader! Congratulations!

And those who haven't unlocked theirs and are in the latest August Patch - Adios from the world of custom stuff!

Refer thread for more info:

https://www.xda-developers.com/augu...nes-blocks-the-only-bootloader-unlock-method/

I made a telegram group for our phone!

Please do join and keep it alive!

As far as I understand and have read, it seems to be possible to downgrade from August firmware to July firmware.

However note that I don't have this phone (I will in a few days, gathering info atm), but I distinctly remember seeing it on a few pages.

Found the page, but I'm unable to post links because I'm apparently new to XDA, you can find it by googling "techmesto nokia bootloader"

Ignore all the other stuff on that page (Or don't go to it and read the below quote), heres the important part:

I don't know where to find this July 2018 OTA, but it supposedly downgrades and lets you unlock the bootloader again (How you do that is up to you, this just actually lets you do it)
[Nokia 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Benderisas:
Installing earlier OTA of the same android will soft-brick your device I believe (I had something like that) and you'll either have to go back to august (just have to have the zip file) or later (if it was already installed).

Main problem will be that it will be more difficult to root the phone (I still believe someone will find a way to overcome this 'fix' from HMD), but installing custom ROMs will still be possible as going back to Nougat is still pretty easy.
[Nokia 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Deleted member 3665957:
Nokia changed security in August update because they will launch own legal bootloader unlock application.

it is ready and it is tested - they will start with Nokia 8 and other models will follow as soon as August update will be deployed on most phones.

as soon as i know, when you will unlock bootloader official way, warranty will be lost.

it is not problem YET to downgrade phone to older security - for example, Nokia 5 ( ND1 ) and Nokia 6 ( D1C, PLE ) can use same Nokia5_June2017_Update.zip, just put it on sdcard, enter recovery and manualy update phone with this file.

Update WILL fail and phone will be soft bricked, but you can reflash phone using NTool or other tools, unlock your bootloader and after that install any latest firmware version you want.

same goes for Nokia 6.1, Nokia 7, Nokia 7 plus, Nokia 8 - all you need - get "outdated security" OTA update package

i believe, hikari_calyx has a plenty of them and probably will share them.

Are you an insider?
[Nokia 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Benderisas:
Nah. The whole thing was BS. Chated with HMD Global on this. They said bootloader unlocking will not likely to be supported officially as many people brick their phones and somehow Nokia sees it as a bad thing.
[Nokia 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Benderisas:
First half as I said is based on nothing (maybe it will happen, but not likely).

Second half of the post is right.

error 0x7000 while unlocking bootloader, "remote: unlock failed". Simply put.

I cant find a single post that also has unlock failed as apart of the error, I need help, I don't know why this is happening.

I type fastboot oem unlock and press volume up... unlock failed return to fastboot in 3s comes up on screen.

and in cmd: FAILED: (Remote: Unlock failed - Err:0x7000)

Edit: OEM unlocking is enabled in dev options

pls help clanezo.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
First, you didn't say what device model number you have.

Next, not all devices can be unlocked and not all devices that can be unlocked can use the "oem unlock" command. Some devices use "fastboot flashing unlock" command to unlock bootloader.

Last, just because your device has the "oem unlock" option in dev settings, doesn't mean your device can be unlocked.
[General Questions and Answers] Clanezo:

Oh, sorry. It's a huawei lua-lo2. Is it possible to unlock that phone?

ULTIMATE GUIDE TO FIX ROM FROM FAKE UNLOCK BOOTLOADER

​

Device: Redmi Note 5/Pro (Whyred)

Anti: 3 (required)

Initial Rom: Global/China with ARB v3

Method: Test Point

As we know that buying whyred from a distributor with a red box has a strange rom and also mi account that can't be binded. this is very troublesome when we want to unlock the bootloader..

This method is to really lock the Bootloader again, can bind Mi account and can be used for Unlock bootloader officially.

And finally, this method doesn't need to edit the script anymore, I upload patch scripts and loaders specifically for ROM 9.5.17 below.

It has been tested and the results are successful.

Let's start and DWYOR! :cool:

Step:

1. Download ROM 1 and ROM 2 below then extract.

2. Download the Patch then copy and replace it in ROM 1 which has been extracted (in the images folder).

3. Open back cover of the phone carefully and connect to the PC via Test Point (HS-USB QDLoader 9008)

4. Flash ROM 1 that has been patched with MiFlash (I use MiFlash 2017.4.25.0 and PC 64bit during flashing).

5. After success, close the miflash, unplug the cable, and turn it on. Wait a few moments until stuck in recovery mode (pict 1)

6. Connect Whyred to PC again via Test Point and Flash ROM 2 with MiFlash.

7. Wait for the first boot, after entering the system, check unlock status in developer mode and tadaaaa.. it's completely locked now... (pict 2)

8. Bind Mi account, continued unlock bootloader officially.

9. Done! ready to go to custom ROM :D

Note:

1. Patch is

only

used for ROM 1 (Global 9.5.17).

2. ROM 2 can use all China ROMs as long as

still ARB v3

.

The same mistake is also available
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] octodellin:
sorry bro, currently only available for arb 3. refers to the difficulty of flashing if it has arb 4. coz the test point method in arb 4 must use an authorized account.

there is a guide to bypass this authorized account, but there are some reports that still fail.

this weirdness has been made xiaomi itself..

I have ARB3 device with fake ubl. I want to try this method, but I can not fully understand what we do with battery while short circuit the test points(5th step).

After writing 1st ROM, we connect the battery, then open device and stuck with recovery. After this (6th step), will I disconnect the battery again, while test point?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] netlogger:
And another question;

while writing 1st or 2nd ROM which option we select with MiFlash Tool? "Clean_all" or "Clean_all and Lock" ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] The4anoni:
How can I check for Fake UBL to be sure for 100% that I need this ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] octodellin:
yes, like the first..

both can be used, coz basically our whyred is in locked bootloader.

but for sure, you can choose Clean_all and Lock

go to fastboot mode and run fastboot command:

fastboot getvar anti

if the displayed output is 3, is good. that means you can use this method.

if the displayed output is 4, you can not use this method.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] The4anoni:
I know how to check anti rollback... I want to check does my bootloader is fake unlocked or not
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] netlogger:
I copied the patch files to the ROM1 images folder.

I open miflash, selected the ROM1 folder.

I made the testpoint method, and I see driver 9008.

then clicked the refresh button then Flash button on miflash program. It writes "flashing".

Flashing process starts, but after that, it stucks while writing keymaster.mbn file. I waited over 20 minutes but nothing happened.

I tried another miflash from may 2018, but same situation.

I tried other USB ports, nothing changed.

I checked the log file. At begining it seems everything normal, but when it came to write keymaster.mbn file(this is the first file to flash)

The log file looks like this:

...

: Write file C:\RN5... ....\images\keymaster.mbn to partition[keymaster] sector 65536

: write file legnth 357392 to partition 65536

: WriteFile position 0, size 0

: WriteFile position 0, size 0

: WriteFile position 0, size 0

: WriteFile position 0, size 0

: WriteFile position 0, size 0

...

And gooes on like this for over 80000 lines. I closed the miflash.

I checked the phone, nothing happened, It opens normally, old rom still there...

what can be the situation?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] octodellin:
1. check in mi unlock status from developer mode

2. check from fastboot command: fastboot oem device-info

3. test to unlock bootloader

if you face unlocked in mi unlock status but in fastboot showing "Device unlocked: false" even more you can't bind account, thats mean you unlocked is

fake

.

[IMG="Pict"]https://i.imgur.com/J411slU.png[/IMG]

1. make sure that you have extracted the patch. there are 3 files that must be replaced to the images folder in ROM 1 (Global 9.5.17)

2. use the miflash that I use

3. try to change clean all or clean all and lock, with flash_all.bat

hope it works for you ..
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] netlogger:

Bruh. Thanks a lot. This is the ONLY guide that has helped me fix my Note 5 Pro.

I was on global rom from the seller... I'm flashing a bunch of ARB 3 or lower MIUI roms... I accidently flashed with lock the bootloader...

That bricked my phone. No other roms would work. No china ones, no global. Tried so many patches until this guide which worked for me.

Thanks
