Unlocking bootloader( 45.3.6) - Motorola Photon 4G

Yes i was wondering if theres a way to unlock and root the Photon with 45.3.6 for the software i tried using the Pudding methond but it doesnt do anything when i type in moto-fastboot oem unlock. This method work for a photon with 45.2.5. Im trying to help a friend out and unlock and root his phone. Is there a way to do this or no

If you ever unlocked you phone before, flash derpunlock via RSD.

is the phone recognized when you type moto-fastboot device? If not the phone is not in fastboot mode. Shut down and then press and hold there power button and the Vol up key.
I forgot to do that once.

Yes it was in fastboot. I did the first step using rsd. Then i used the cmd thing and when i typed in moto-fastboot oem unlock it did nothing but say waiting on device and did nothing

[Q] BP Pass Through

I am trying to unlock my bootloader. I went through all the steps and couldn't get it to work. I am currently rooted and that is it. I put my phone into rsd mode, put the sbf into rsdlite and then plug my phone in. I click start and everything seems to work until it gets to 98%. The status says BP Pass Through and then it says failed. I am running rsdlite 5.6.

It's supposed to fail. After it does, boot into fastboot then issue the unlock commands in fastboot from your computer:
Code:
moto-fastboot oem unlock
copy the unique id that it spits out then
Code:
moto-fastboot oem unlock yourid
this assumes that you are inside the moto-fastboot directory or have added moto-fastboot or fastboot to your path.

[Q] How do i re-lock bootloader?

( i admit i am a noob at this stuff) I bought this rezound from a guy, and i came home and downloaded the Rezound All-In-One kit, i installed the htc drivers registered at htcdev. I tried to get token ID.. didnt work, and i tried to do the ICS leak and followed the instructions exactly... didnt work.. well i looked at my phone while in bootloader and it said unlocked, i tried running the All-in-one kit "Relock Bootloader" command and it still doesnt work. in command prompt it says ( Rezound_All-In-One_Kit_v2.0\data>fastboot oem lock
< waiting for device >
and thats it.. doesnt do anything else.. can someone please help me re-lock this phone.
Is the phone currently in fastboot in your bootloader when you did this command?
Do you mean, reboot to bootloader while its connected to PC and run the re-lock command?
When your phone is connected does it say fastboot usb with the red highlight?

when the phone is on as normal? or when you boot it up in the loader? sorry.. im such a noob at this crap >_<
No I mean when in the hboot menu where you see the locked or unlocked at the top. If it just says fastboot in red highlight then press the power button and it should say fastboot USB. Then try to lock it.

How do i bring up hboot while its connected? when i remove battery and hold volume down + power nothing happens.
Disconnect the phone. Then pull your battery out. Then replace your battery. Then boot up holding power + volume down. Then when you are in the hboot screen connect the USB cable.

Pull battery, replace it, hold power and vol down, when it boots into the bootloader connect it to the pc.

Ok, yes it shows FASTBOOT USB in red. Now what do i do?
Thats when you want to type the command "fastboot oem lock" minus the quotes and it should go thru this time.
Now try to lock it with whatever your using

He's not doing it manually. He's using somebody's program.

Thanks i got it re-locked!!!!
Nice!!
Essentially the two lines you'll ever need are:
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
fastboot oem lock
I looked at the .bat related to re-locking in the A-I-O toolkit and it doesn't invoke "adb reboot bootloader" command before attempting "fasboot oem lock". So essentially assuming the OP was attempting to run the command from a fully booted state, it was just sitting there waiting for the phone to be in HBOOT/FASTBOOT USB state.

I attempted to re-lock my bootloader in order to update my firmware. However once I relock it, I can not reboot the phone it keeps returning to bootloader. Any ideas?

No need to do all that.
Since you want to get CM7, Unlock the phone.
Ignore the instructions to flash system.img, that will bring you back to stock.
Enter fastboot, flash a recovery. (Above post last instruction)
Enter recovery mode, than flash CM7 from there.
(I assume you are familiar with what I am talking about, and don't require step by step instructions)

[Q] Failed fastboot oem unlock

So, I have an Atrix 4G (2.3.6) and decided to try rooting in order to install a proper adblock. I'm a bit new to Android so I did some careful research and I found some tutorials that showed to do a fastboot oem unlock.
But I guess the Atrix doesn't unlock from a straight fastboot oem unlock command? Because it now boots directly to the fastboot screen with a "(ap) fastboot flash mode (s) flash failure" error.
I can get it to boot normally by holding the volume and power buttons and selecting 'normal' but that is a pain and can only be done with a good charge on it.
I'm going to say I don't know what I'm doing here. First and foremost I'd like to restore a normal boot, though I wouldn't mind knowing what to do from here to properly root it.

what steps did you take? fastboot oem unlock only works when the bootloader isn't locked anymore. By default, manufacturers lock their bootloaders so also with motorola you need to unlock it first. There are some ways to do this, the sbf method and whatnot but it's not really idiotproof.
Is all you did the fastboot oem unlock? else you might want to relock it by "fastboot oem lock" and just root your phone if you don't want to go custom rom

EMUI 4.1 Huawei Sensa H715BL boot loader

Has anybody ever gotten this boot loader to unlock on this specific model ? Ive been trying for days and I have the unlock code that DC unlocker furnished. ADB keeps saying failed and it sees my device. It has a funny boot loader with limited options, not like your normal boot loader. I would really like to unlock it and install twrp. Ive had great success with other phones and tablets but this one here is a booger. Any feed back or solutions would be great. Love this phone.just not EMUI...
Huawei Sensa on sale for $19.99 Refurb
I am looking for the same answers. I bought 5 of these phones at $20 each refurbed. I would like to use them for fun/stupid projects. Root would be required for some of my projects. TWRP would be very nice as well. If any one has any insight. I got on huawei support chat. They claim it is a Snapdragon 615 Soc , it is underclocked to 1.2Ghz to keep the heat issues to a minimum.

This phone have a root method ? H715BL version
ANYONE ?
Same question here. I got as far as getting a boot unlock code. I can't seem to get into fastboot. Oem Unlock is turned on. I did Volume down+Power from off, and I tried Volume down + inserting usb cable. No luck. I also ran the adb command "reboot bootloader". Still no fastboot.
When I run fastboot command while in the screen with the little android (volume down + Power) the phone is listed but "fastboot oem unlock" fails as an unknown command.
Do we really need to unlock the bootloader for root? Isn't it just for Twrp? I can do without Twrp since I'll have other rooted backup methods. I'll try a few root apps and see I guess.
gggirlgeek::: how did you manage get bootloader unlock code
To unlock bl need latest platform tool sdk to send fastboot commands

Please use latest platform sdk tools and run fastboot from there
Gggirlgeek:: Maybe fastboot reboot recovery … then from recovery reboot bootloader. I guess it can work just that i not have unlock code yet
