I am really happy you got it and have no regrets that I paid for mine (even if I end up getting mine again from applying on this list). Can I ask what version of the OS are you on? If you are on the newest and find out if the root steps on the "How to unlock any Huawei Bootloader" thread on the 7X page are still relevant, I'd love to hear about it.

Sure doesn't feel like an exploit to me based on the information requested (IMEI and S/N only) and the fact that it was done completely offline and touchless.
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] hackintosh5:
You sure it's offline? If so, please, please send me that APK or EXE, however it's distributed
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] zelendel:
An exploit is just another term for finding a work around, you are exploiting something they didn't think of. Which is all that really is. Who ever it is found a way to find the unlock code. (it's most likely stored on the device somewhere, just like old Sim unlocks)

At least that is one theory

Could always reverse engineer it and find out for sure what it is doing.
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] hackintosh5:
Well, it's definitely stored on the device (hint: WVLOCK in NV partition)

The problem is bypassing Unix and selinux perms

Work on huawei device??????
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] sliding_billy:
I can only tell you it was offline to me. No APK/.exe. The phones weren't even turned on (they aren't my daily drivers - I have a Pixel XL for that). I submitted the information (IMEI and S/N) in the form that popped up as part of the PayPal order. I went to sleep expecting to hear something today, and when I woke up around midnight there were two emails with the unlock codes. Fired the devices up, and unlocked them with no issues.

To be clear, I only ever dealt with them by chat to confirm that it would work on the device. I placed the order/submitted the information without even having the phones on me (I was at work). Me thinks they have a source for codes just like XDA did only it wasn't free (probably to them either) to the user
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] hackintosh5:
Oh.you mean offline from the phone. I thought you meant internet offline
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] sliding_billy:
Yeah, pretty much exactly the same as the Honor/XDA form but with PayPal instead of an XDA account (and no "reason" requested).

It is possible if you have the June security patch or earlier on emui 8.0(not 8.1)
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] sliding_billy:
...also possible if you are willing to pay $35 to Ministry of Solutions. See my other posts over the past couple of pages. BTW, I am not affiliated with the company. I just don't see the point in waiting around for something that happened before but may never happen again.

If I read correctly, fh can now unlock all Huawei and honor devices.
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] zelendel:
While I am glad to see this panned out (didnt really think it would) I am concerned that it is limited and will take weeks to approve. It does make me wonder just what they are doing to unlock the devices. Maybe something that can be reverse engineered so XDA users don't have to wait for them.

So wish I wasn't banned form using them.

Does this apply to Huawei?
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] #Henkate:
I can't agree with you more.

Sadly, you're the one of the people who fall into that trap. It was a gimmick.

Wise choice.

Security measure? Personally, I'd rather have an unlocked bootloader and LineageOS / AOSP then being locked down and use the stock ROM, where I'd probably be "monitored" by OEM. It's my choice.

To avoid issues caused by ROM flashing? Lol. First of all, the user unlocks the bootloader and flash a ROM with his own consent. He agrees with the disclaimer and do it. Secondly, there's no issues caused by ROM flashing if the user reads carefully and do it properly. Even if he would fail to flash it successfully, he can still recover his phone. Also, after the user flash e.g. LineageOS (especially on a device which is officialy supported), he'll actually be impressed with the improvements in terms of smoothness and battery backup, and having no issues at all (except kirin devices I guess).

For me, your reason for not allowing unlocking bootloader anymore is a lie. And if you'll allow unlocked bootloader again, then basically you'll be denying your reason which you care so much about.

You've sold phones when you've allowed unlocked bootloader. There were people who paid a lot of money to buy your phones knowing that they have that possibility, that choice. Then you've came and took that away.

One of the things which Android is popular for, is the freedom it comes with. You've took that away.

It's not like you're the only OEM out there though, so don't worry. You can keep your phones locked while everyone else is moving to other OEM and a better chipset (Qualcomm).

PS: Huawei Nova user, first and last Huawei phone too.

---------- Post added at 03:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:52 PM ----------

I have debranded my v10 from EU to India by flashing the oeminfo and dloaded the firmware.

Everything is same in about phone but only change is my IMEI in Fastboot mode, PID, SN all remains same.

How shall i proceed with requesting code, which IMEI shall I give as my old BL code doesn't work anymore with error as wrond password while unlocking BL. [MENTION=2247733]ante0[/MENTION] was kind enough to help with multiple ways, backdoor, FBlocks etc but no luck. [MENTION=6870018]Tecalote[/MENTION] was helpfull with Chimera tool but no luck.

Not spamming here( i know this thread is for other purpose) just mentioning so that someone else could guide in PM or telegram [MENTION=6714681]shashank1320[/MENTION] with this as I have given the info but nit sure if that will help in gettinf the new BL code.

Actually raising it here as many have this issue post debranding on v10 and 6X.

Thanks beforehand.

Although a step in the right direction is still feels like being spat in the face. Glad XDA pushed on this issue. What about the Patch01 issue which disables Magisk root? what is honor's stance on this as till honor puts out a statement about not blocking patch my phone will not be getting updated.

Great job from XDA and community , but this is one and only device I will ever bought from Huawei
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Giuliano69:
Thanks for the informations;

I was going to replace 2 Moto Z by two Honor view 10, but after reading the huawei/honor announcement, I started seeking around for something similar with BL unlock options..

People were just getting used to the fact that not only Qualcom processor could be used with AOSP, and the Huawei/honor announcement shut off the light….

The last Honor declaration rise the interest again in their products, but clearly they choose to give as little information as possible on the matter:

-no deadline date or maximum BL numbers for the operation,

-no info about models eligible for BL unlock,

-no user profile -if any- required for applying to the request

It's necessary to see how the matter will evolve prior to take any decision on Honor devices...

BTW

The original Huawei announcement said:

“the application service will be stopped for all products launched after 2018-05-24”

-Does this mean that only “old” Honor devices will receive the unlock code, i.e. new models will be excluded ?

-Are we eligible for BL code just being a registered xda forum user, or there are some more requirements ?

Br

PS

In these same days, Xiaomi Pocophone f1 changed the bootloader policy into 0-3 days to unlock.

Of course it's only a coincidence.... :)

Maybe Xiaomi is feeling that many developers would consider to develop for an "open" Qualcom845 instead of a "closed" Kyrin 970.... ??

What will be the Honor response ?
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] drearyworlds:

This is correct. Presumably, he knows someone who works at Huawei, and it simply emailing them the imei/serial, and getting the unlock codes from them. Thus, delivery takes 24 hours.

[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] chickenwingding:
Can this be done on a Honor 8x? It launched about 2 weeks ago with emui 8.2 and September security patch. Since this is a latest model, would it work if I requested a downgrade from them?

Just an update for anyone who's interested, I saw Mr. Zhexuan Song (CSO of Huawei) and his associates today at Gitex. I discussed the issue of bootloader unlocking with them, but they didn't really know what I was talking about. I left my contact info with them, and they promised they'd have someone in the right department contact me (what they called EBG group).

I found yet another person on WhatsApp who's selling unlock codes for all newer Huawei/Honor devices for only $23, and he only needs the imei/serial as well. I don't have the money right now, but if anyone is interested, PM me for his Whatsapp number (I can't vouch for this person, but perhaps you could take the risk and let us know if he's legit).

If it's genuine, there is definitely some sort of secret method that all these places are using that we don't know about yet.

Considering everything, it just looks like one of these;

1. MoS knows the bootloader code generating algorithm.

2. They know someone in Huawei and sending him the details and he sends them codes.

unlocking the bootloader is the first step. then we need a custom recovery like TWRP + developers to make ROMs. We hope to seed key devs with devices so they can work on roms.

No, just Honor now.

I'm not sure exactly. My guess is 2-4 weeks. Honor/Huawei is a massive company (it's like the Apple of China) and so things take a while.

As long as the Google form confirms you completed it, the info was sent. Don't worry. :D
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] mondalakash:
Devices were sent to developers...different variants sent to developers some got l09(based on android 8.0) and some got l04 the us variant(android 8.1),these made ROMs incompatible with l09's as most devs got l04 although the incompatibility issue is fixed but still its a additional headache for devs...

Then comes kernel source l09 came with android 8.0 and l04 based on 8.1 .So the kernel source for l04 is basically incompatible with l09 so users were unable to use custom kernels...

Further more few kernel devs got l09 I guess [MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] but abandoned the development because of lack of proper commit history with kernel source and incompatibility across different variants..

How this situation is being tackled...? And

We don't need TWRP to flash roms - and OpenKirin already has roms for many Kirin devices.

This is something very very half assed. If they wanted to do something to please us their customers they would keep the BL unlock service open for XDA users, not cancel it after some time. This is not a solution and actually something disappointing.

waiting and watching. OnePlus grew here, on XDA ... and now they have a deal with TMobile in the United States with the 6T soon. This seems to be a successful way in the US market - get the following with allowing development then work with carriers. OnePlus is Oppo, a Chinese company too. let's see if Heawei burocracy understands OnePlus's success with easily unlock, ROM's and can still flash back to stock is what makes those phones so desirable.

I own a Honor play and I wanted to fill this form,but Im a little sceptical.Will it be valid if I fill or does it only pertain to Honor View 10 device owners?

I think they need to make this a permanent affair.Given the fact that we own the device,we must be given the right to choose what to do with it.It's not like we will blame Honor/Huawei for a botched flashing job or a toasted mobo due to overclocking.I didnt understand why did they take such a dumb decision.

Before switching to the Play,I owned a Redmi 4A.Mi made the bootloader unlocking more simple..No more permissions and now my device rocks Stock Android.If other OEM's are making it simple for its users to switch software,I dont understand what logic Huawei had.Anyways,just hoping that they reverse their decision before other OEM's take advantage and go too far.
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] shashank1320:

Why did you buy a phone without researching whether bootloader unlock / Root was available?

About £500.

Personally I think this is nothing more than a publicity stunt, Devs have made there decisions after the closing of the unlocking site and aren't going to come flocking back, thankfully this will allow some of those buying a device to unlock and prolong the life of their device.
