I try to unlock fastboot. I downgraded the emui 9.1 to 8.0. I try to get de FBLock value but the result is this picture above. First I looked if my device was connected and it was because I did get the device number. When I want the FBLock value, its waiting for a device so how can I solve this and get the FBLock value.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] -Alf-:
First type the command

adb reboot bootloader

, then you can use fastboot commands.

Enable OEM unlock in Developer options.

unfortunately the slock service from telegram group has been down now for more that 1.5 month.. No sign from the niceguys whether or not it will ever get back up again.. (stock with a phone on EMIU 8 (June 2018 patch) just waiting.. loosing confidence in this method..
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] horqai:
Same here :-(

What would be your recommendation to get to an unlocked bootloader?

As I just glued the back of the phone back on. I would like to prevent a method were I need to open the phone again.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] -Alf-:
Working method for free :

Instructions

Softwaire

dc-unlocker or hcu-client , for 4euros . There is no other way out at the moment.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] horqai:
Ok seems like I have to open it again.

As my phone is on Android 8 but security patch level Nov. 2008. As far as I understood so far, there is no save way to get the downgrade needed or do miss I something?
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] -Alf-:
You can safely downgrade to the lower Oreo build number using Service ROM. What is your current build number (from "About phone")?
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] horqai:
I'm on ANE-LX1 8.0.0.146(C461)

Anyhow I've used the PotatoNV method and it worked nearly on the first attempt.

If I understand correctly, I can now unlock the Bootloader again, even after system upgrade by using this code in Fastboot - correct?

Just out of curiosity, what would have been the corect way to downgrade from C461 as I could just find version above the June 2008 one.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] -Alf-:
each bootloader code is permanent, it won't expire (except motherboard replacement etc.).

Download correct Service ROM from androidhost.ru website, unpack .zip archive , find dload file in "Software" folder, and simply transfer it to the SD card, without unpacking it!

Turn off your phone and flash FW using three button combo. The process will erase all your data! (and will lock the bootloader ).
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] horqai:
Hi Alf,

I hope this is not to offtopic - nevertheless I've updated the phone with the dialer code *#*#2846579#*#* ==> Software Upgrade ==> SdCard Upgrade dload method to 9.1.0.370 (C432) . Is it normal, that by this way the phone is still unlocked and not wiped at all?

Cheers and thank you for your support
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] -Alf-:
Wrong firmware bro...you can not simply flash C432 firmware on C461 region without oeminfo changing (rebranding) - it may brick your phone. Try again with correct Service ROM (C461).

Update: for example :

https://androidhost.ru/2BGD
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] horqai:
Oh - didn't know that - as it was named ANE-L01 I thought it's fine. I'm not used the Huawei phones and their naming. :eek:

I brought the phone vvery cheap with a broken screen on ebay and exchanged it - as I'm from Germany I was assuming getting an EU firmware would be the correct region. So what you say is, that the phone was originally not coming with an EU firmware?

So far everything seems to work normally - therefore you still advice to flash the phone again with the version you linked?
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] -Alf-:
AFAIK C461 = Armenia, Uzbekistan, Ukraine, Mongolia, Georgia, Kazakhstan ,Belarus.

You can check it on this website .

Is your phone single SIM/dual SIM?

Problems will come later :) . What is your build number in About phone? And model? Have you access to Project menu? (*#*#2846579*#*) Go > network information query > vendor country info ane post please result: Vendor: ?

Country: ?
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] horqai:
I would already reflash the phone, but the download is so slooooow :-|

Would it be faster to do the rebranding :ROFLMAO:

Phone is single SIM

Vendor: hw

I already realized, that the screen is not rotating anymore.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] -Alf-:
this confirms that you have the wrong firmware.

International and European cust is C432 - hw/eu

and C431 - hw/eea

Try download it early morning , own experience .

For your information.. the slock service is up and running again..
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] XRealX:
Well, no matter what TWRP recovery I try, I get that ******* ERROR 1 when I try to flash TishSerg_For4pda.

At least the hard part is over now... My bootloader is unlocked. I'm never buying a Huawei phone ever again.

I tried twrp-3.4.0-1-anne, twrp-3.4.0-0-anne, twrp-3.5.0_9-0-anne and the one linked too. I got that stupid error with all of these recoveries.

How do I root my device btw? How do I install a custom ROM without losing my unlocked bootloader?

Update: I managed to root my phone with magisk, but I'm scared to start installing custom ROMs because I don't want to lose my unlocked bootloader :/. One custom ROM requires EMUI 9.1 for some reason. But according to this post, I'll lose the unlock if I install EMUI 9. But then I can't install that custom ROM. So frustrating. Is there any other way to do what that file does from 4pda?

Yes, it works now. I just unlocked my bootloader like 2 hours ago.

I tried with this one: https://mega.nz/file/Fgd0xa4R#1o5ejzDnkLJLG2tAZG-STtlJ4nnNCHfwwZdOlmOkrVw

It worked for me (P20 Lite ANE-LX1)

My phone is on EMUI 8, unlocked. When I upgrade (dload method) to 9.1 I loose unlocking, and when try to unlock again:

C:\Users\xxx\Desktop>fastboot oem unlock TishSerg_For4pda

(bootloader) Necessary to unlock FRP!

(bootloader) Navigate to Developer options, and enable "OEM unlock"!

FAILED (remote: 'Command not allowed')

fastboot: error: Command failed

I would like to install Official LineageOS 16, so I need Emui 9.1 unlocked but I don't know how to get it. Any help is really appeciated!

Thank you.
[Huawei P20 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] XRealX:
The only way I could install the 4pda zip was with a modded twrp 3.2 recovery. Maybe with the one you linked.

Make sure to enable oem unlocking in developer options before you try unlocking your bootloader is fastboot.

Its easier than it look, warm the back of your phone with hairdryer fan and take it off. To put it back on just heat it up again and press it in, glue sticks again and it looks like it has never been opened. :)

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] sunny530:
so my wife buys a 580tab and the first thing i do is root it with twrp. tablet worked great for years. so the other day i was showing her how to create a new user in the tablet and i made it very clear !!!!DO NOT PUT YOUR OWN INFO IN THIS!!!! this is only to create a new user other than you!!!! I leave and sure enough what does the du/\/\b B!t©h do? she enters her gmail address which is already on the tablet and forgets what her password is. she said after it wouldnt let her log in to her account she figured she could just restart the thing and it would start up in her account. ??WTF??

i know what her password is but the thing wont even boot up it only says custom binary blocked due to frp in red letters.

did the tablet reset its self?

Has anyone else gone through this? "not the situation with the dumb wife the situation with the tablet"

i was wanting to save all the user data if it all possible.

Any Suggestions?

Hello, does anyone have stock rom for any of these 2 phones(they are actually the same phone, branded differently).

I tried installing GSI rom, but phone got stuck at android logo.

I had access to fastboot so I flashed some wrong firmware and now it cannot turn on.

PC detects the phone, so I can use SP flash tool.

The weird thing is, SP tool says the phone has mt6765 even tho it has mt6763 processor.

If anyone has either rom, please contact me as soon as possible. Thanks in advance!

Notes:

1. I do not have one of these and do not plan to acquire one, so I have no idea if anything can actually be flashed at this moment - I'm just providing the firmware. Like all other models, I'm assuming patched Odin is needed for this, but it wouldn't surprise me if a new version is needed for this specific device. There's only one way to know though, so as soon as someone gets their hands on one and can try this, please let us know

It's been confirmed that Odin 3.14.1 Patched is needed for flashing S20s - https://xdaforums.com/android/software/patched-odin-3-13-1-t3762572

H/T [MENTION=5644190]clabern[/MENTION]

2. I don't know if using the HOME CSC will actually save data. I don't get access to that file straight from the source - I have to decompile the regular CSC, remove the parts that initiate the factory reset, and then re-compile it. Based on the S10 and Note 10, I've done what I think will avoid a factory reset. But the S20 has some new partitions, so we won't know for sure until someone tests it. So if you're willing to be that guinea pig, you're responsible for taking proper steps to avoid an FRP lock, make sure your data is backed up, etc

Hey there,

I can't play any streaming video content from the internet over UMTS/HDSPA.

On my tytn (win mo 6.0) it wasn't any problem. On my diamond after connecting and buffering, it finally says "playing" but the screen stays black and the time playing indicator keeps displaying 0:00.

Streaming audio is no problem. The problem occurs for streaming video, like live TV.

I don't want to try other programs but MediaPlayer, since on my tytn Windows Mobile 6.0 it works perfect which makes me think on my Diamond with 6.1 it should be able to work as well...

Does anyone have any idea what could be the problem for the Diamond?

I bought and received a refurbished S7 from Amazon about 4 months ago. Today I got an email from the seller informing me the motherboard is tempered and that there is malware on it. Is this possible? If so, how can it be fixed? Here's the message I got.

"You have received a message from the Amazon Seller - Hyperion Elec.

1	product image	Samsung Galaxy S7 SM-G930F 32GB Factory Unlocked GSM 4G LTE Single

Thank you for shopping with us. Amazon seller Hyperion Elec. would like to follow up on your recent return.

Message from seller Hyperion Elec.:

Greetings from Hyperion Elec.

The phone that you have purchased from us is verified to have a motherboard issue, which I later found out from my supplier that the motherboard has been tempered with malware. This issue is detrimental to your privacy as the information stored on the phone (pictures, text messages, etc.) can be easily exploited by a third-party. Hereby I express my sincere apology for this issue and would like to ask you to return this phone to me for a full refund through the prepaid shipping label given to you through Amazon.

This is an urgent issue which should be taken care of immediately. Awaiting your soonest response in this regard."
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] cooltt:
And the next email will be to return it to an address you've never heard of with all your info on the phone for them to exploit. Possibly someone has accessed your Amazon account so i'd chcnge the pass word straight away.

You could send a message direct to the sellar (don't replay to that email) to see if the email is genuine?

However there are lots of malware scanning apps on the play store to use. If it is a genuine problem it would be difficult to rectify since there are a few ways to store malware on the phone and flashing new firmware doesn't flash all storage partitions. The only way to rectify and be absolutley sure would be to change the motherboard.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Teuthis:
Thanks for the prompt reply. The seller emailed from their Amazon seller account, so I assume the message is legitimate.

Is it possible that the Mono is really tempered with? Running malware scans now
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] cooltt:
Very much depends where it came from, it's deffo possible. I'm sure Samsung parts are made in Vietnam, not really known for IP theft.

Personally I'd never buy a refirbished phone where a new motherboard been put in. No smart phone is designed to be taken apart by anyone other than the manufacture.

Reset your passwords from a laptop/ pc, not with your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Teuthis:
How can I find out for sure? Is there any check I can do to verify a tempered with MOBO? No malware has been detected.
