IMPORTANT PRELIMINARY EXPLANATIONS:
It is necessary to read and understand everything that is and why all these claims and concepts of the process
SONY (Android models) has two limitations in terminal operator: 1) Lock SimLoc k. - It's what makes that you can not insert another operator's SIM card. 2) Lock FastBoot. - is compared to other terminals of other brands , a kind of mode Download, Boot, ... , From which you can install Roms, Mods, root.
It really is quite a bit more complex but roughly explained you will understand it all better. To check the status of these two blocks there is a hidden menu on SONY. Open the terminal dialer and dialing * # * # 7378423 # * # * (numbers correspond to the positions of the word SERVICE) will see a menu: Entering Service Info> SIM Lock is blocked we'll see if it puts us SimLock a [x] in Network Configuration Entering see if we blocked as we will Rooting Fastboot Status: Bootloader Unlock Allowed = NO When you buy a terminal open, on the hidden states: SIMLOCK = NOT ALLOW = Yes Bootloader Unlock This means that can be used with any operator and that "you can open the bootloader." It says it is open or not, but you can and as you can, it goes to the Sony website, is requested to open the bootloader code as there is no restriction to boot FastBoot way we can. When removed the state operator is as follows: SIMLOCK = YES = NO ALLOW Bootloader Unlock means that we can only use it with the operator provided it to us. And much to go to Sony to get the code to open the Bootloader, then we can not get him because Fastboot mode (to activate the bootloader) is NOT ALLOWED. If an operator does not have tenure, MUST GIVE FULL unlock code , which is the general rule that facilitate the operators. And we can use the handset with other companies, but we can not rootearlo as a free terminal because this requires opening the bootloader and it is necessary to boot into FastBoot, which STILL OPERATOR castrated. And to allow that there is a code like SimLock release that opens put it .... both the SimLock and "Bootloader Unlock ALLOW" to get to YES. With that we have the terminal in the same conditions as the free. Then it is up to each user, which ALLOWS SONY, open the bootloader to install root or cooked roms. For these reasons, the claim began, as traders know that TOTAL unlock code, and Sony refused to facilitate it does not know whether we stay or not and therefore whether or not we entitled to it.
GOT THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THIS COMMUNITY HAS BEEN CLAIMED AND POLICY CHANGE GET SONY WORLDWIDE HOWEVER COULD TURN OUR OPERATOR TERMINAL TERMINAL IN A COMPLETELY FREE. MOST IMPACTED THIS DEVELOPMENT FOR THESE TERMINALS AND OF COURSE MORE WORLDWIDE SALES FOR SONY. ALL HAPPY.
Since the problem was that Sony really did not know whether or not we were entitled to FULLY unlock, has reached an agreement. If after having released the terminal through the Simlock (WHICH IS FREE AND CONFIRMS but is really 50%) you get in touch with the customer service of Sony Xperia in questions.es @ support.sonymobile.com e-mail indicating your IMEI and unlock code SimLock confirming that if correct, you know what free whatever the case and therefore will provide the unlock code Fastboot's FULL. WITH ALL THAT WE LEFT THE TERMINAL WAS PURCHASED AS IF FREE. After that, depending on whether a XperiaU, a XperiaS, Xperia P, you should follow the procedures published in the forums to open the Bootloader from the SONY website like any other user with the handset purchased FREE and be able to ROOT or any mod / Rom. STEPS: As has become clear throughout the process, summarize to make it even clearer: 1) We release the ends SimLock l If you stay you should call your carrier for you right to give it you for FREE. Depending on the operator usually take 4 to 15 days. If you can stay paying third release ( http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=373931 ) 2) After the end liberate the Simlock l have for So the code release confirming that it is released, send an email to Sony more or less like this to seek the release of FastBoot :
Recipient : questions.es @ support.sonymobile.com
Subject : Request release of Xperia FastBoot S - IMEI: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Body : Good 's morning / afternoon . I have a XperiaS (or whatever) which has no permanence for any operator I have the unlock code Simlock that the operator has given me. therefore call FastBoot unlocking that would change the "Rooting Status: Bootloader Unlock Allowed" to YES to have the same privileges as a free terminal and power later if you wish to apply in your opening web Bootloader and apply root, which is impossible now for me the above limitation obviously I should not have and not having a permanent terminal. This facilitated the data from my terminal: IMEI: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (the leaving dialing * # 06 * in the terminal dialer) SimUnlock Code: zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz (which you have provided to free simlock and confirm that the terminal is released) Model: XPeriaS Email: [email protected] Tel: 666111222 No another individual, received a warm greeting and await your response. Thank you. Fulanito
3 ) SONY we can respond with several cases:
* Let us say that the code is incorrect. If you gave it to the operator, the operator calls you send it by email and not forward to SONY. This confirms that you provided the operator has legally. If you refuse, you have to justify it with the invoice showing that has no permanence.
* You tell us directly that the request is in progress. A WAIT. If you want you can call 902882250 should take time to answer to see how the case, but WE DO NOT HEAVY. * Let us know a date of collection to do it. THIS IS GOOD. Call or reply to see what day we collect the terminal. We are given the deadline 15 days to return it to us. CALM ... do it to avoid catching fingers over time. In 1 week you will surely back home FREE AND FULLY UNLOCKED. .......... WE HAVE THE TERMINAL AS IF PURCHASED WAS FREE. Search the forums on your terminal as rootearlo, apply mods, roms, etc. and enjoy!. Check from the menu that is well hidden and it's free: WARRANTY: Unlocking and simlock Fastboot LOSE NO WARRANTY IMPLIED. CONFIRMED WITH SONY. In doing IDENTICAL TO A TERMINAL IS PURCHASED FREE, with Simlock and Fastboot open. Also then if you open the Bootloader from the Sony website as do those with the terminal to get FREE ORIGIN root, NOR is lost warranty. Under the conditions of SONY do not say yes or no. Simply "RESERVE" the right to give or not depending on the problem. That is ..... if you opened it and got involved only root to do full backups, using specific apps that require root but do not involve misuse of the terminal, Sony does not have to tell you goodbye warranty. And even less if the issue where the send is a recognized problem and common (as the problem of yellow on the screens of the first production runs, going from 41 ° the terminal due to gas produced by the glue that stuck the pantalals ). Another thing is you do root, do overclock and burn the mic and send it to the SAT. Obviously not a terminal problem and they know it is not a common known fault. And if you look above that and you've unlocked the bootloader ... well, goodbye warranty. Say you open the bootloader does not mean losing the warranty but Sony after it and send the SAT if the terminal will look with some little finer the problem that if you had not opened never know what could not be anything to manipulate and therefore insurance cover you.

Well, in short, ElHechicero and lots of HTCMania users claimed to Movistar to give us a total unlock code, not only to unlock SIM but also to be able to unlock the bootloader. You just need to unlok your SIM via your telephony provider and then contact with SONY.

[Q] how to unlock sim card on jetstream?

Hi guys,
Recently i bought a htc jetstream tablet but there is no "mobile networks" option in wirless and networks menu,as i knew we should unlock this device,so is there any help?

for using any operator simcard :
1. you need unlock jetstream from htcdev.com
2. then root device, for this google it (e.g. how to root jetstream)
3. use any simcard you want !
wait u will see WIFI not working sad!!!
4. for fixing WIFI problem install wifix application (just work on rooted devices)
now u can use simcard and wifi both

I think the peyman_021 meant "How do I perform a SIM unlock?" and not "How do I unlock my bootloader?". In order to perform a SIM unlock (henceforth carrier unlock) on your Jetstream you will need to determine your IMEI and then use a carrier unlocking site.
Find out your IMEI:
On any device with a dialer you can call *#06#. This preferable because it is consistent across all operating systems (i.e. Android, iOS, Blackberry OS, Windows Mobile). Alternatively, you can navigate menus -- usually starting with Settings->About. This number (it does not feature letters) is essentially your cellular radio serial number.
Use Carrier Unlocking Site
There are many sites out there so find something or someone to guide you towards the best ones. As with most things price is often the determining factor.
You will need an online payment mechanism such as a credit card. They can cost as little as $10 USD and as much as $30 USD -- in my experience. They will ask you to enter your IMEI and sometimes your device make/model -- though the latter is redundant.
Once you submit your IMEI and payment then you will need to wait for an unlock code. It can takes minutes, hours and maybe even days for the site to reply -- typically via email. The unlock code is short and entirely numeric.
In order to enter the unlock screen you will have to trigger the enter lock screen dialog. On the Jetstream this is done by inserting a SIM card that is not from the original carrier. Most devices require you to power off to insert a different SIM, but the Jetstream can hot swap. Enter the unlock code and you are done.
Note that on the Jetstream you need to have a lock screen enabled to trigger the enter unlock code dialog. Perplexingly, it is the actual lock screen that triggers the enter unlock code dialog.
You should note that carrier unlocking is permanent, but since it is an improvement that is a good thing.

hi, where to get the wifi fix application? thanks so much in advance.

I don't know what peyman_021 means here, but a clue is that he mentions needing a rooted device. This probably means changes to the /system partition.
Users of the kernel made by DooMLoRD require an updated wifi module. That is the closest thing I can think of to a "wifi fix application".
If you can post a screen capture of your problem then we may have more information to help you with. Download a screen capture app or simply take a picture of your screen and post it here.
You also might want to consider 1) unlocking your bootloader then 2) installing a custom recovery then 3) installing the custom kernel by DooMLoRD. I suspect this will give you a better performing kernel and working wifi.

Understanding network unlocking

Why does each of us have to pay to unlock their phone model from a network when only one of us could unlock and then help others ?
Thats why I think we need to understand how phone unlocking works. I've searched and could not find any tutorial. I suggest this to be general advice and not any specific device.
So questions:
When I insert the unlock code into an android device, what files or partitions are modified ? Then could we not clone that and share the image with other users ?

It doesn't work like that. Each IMEI gets its own code by the carriers. It's not even an Android thing as all software come to the carrier unlocked and the carrier then adds in its own stuff excluding then lock codes.

We all know that each phone has its own IMEI. But to be more clear in byte-code language, we need to understand, how does the phone itself know "am I a locked phone or an unlocked one ?" Or in other words, do those who own websites to unlock code break the algorithm themselves or do they buy it from producers ?
Actually some have discovered that it's mmcblk0p6 in their case that changes when applying the unlock code, and using tools such as "string -n 8" to read that partition. But we need to uncover more than that, we don't know the partition name that need to be changed in other cases.

How to get bootloader unlock code instantly

I was very sad that even waiting 2 weeks i couldn't get the unlock code from huawai website.
Thanks to @inside!out for helping me with the following way to get the bootloader fast unlocked:
There is a small software called dc-unlock: https://www.dc-unlocker.com/
With dc-unlock there is no need to wait two weeks (or more?!)
Just download dc-unlock software and purchase 4 points for unlocking bootloader instantly on the website. ( There are a lot ways to purchase - don't worry)
Install HiSuite on PC and connect phone with pc.
In phone software you need to enable debugging and then in dialer
- dial *#*#2846579#*#*
- background settings
- usb port settings
- choose manufacture mode
Then in dc-unlock software choose huawei phones and auto detect.
Now search device, if found enter on right side under server settings the username and password you get per email when purchasing 4 points from dc-unlock website.
Then in unlocking on right side DON'T choose unlock phone! Choose "read bootloader"!
That's the code you need for Multi-Tool to unlock successful.
Good luck!

[ANE-LX1] OEM Unlocking

I bought ANE-LX1 (P20 Lite) on June 2018 and immediately unlocked the OEM from the developer options (automatic factory reset was done then), but i never rooted or installed custom rom, recovery...etc.
All updates was normally arriving and i was updating my phone regularly (current build is: ANE-LX1 8.0.0.170(C185)).
I decided to root my device using fastboot, but when the device is in recovery mode i can see:
Code:
Phone Locked -- (in green font color)
FRP Unlock -- (in red font color)
When i try to flash using fastboot i got:
Code:
FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
While searching online i found that Huawei decided to lock bootloader for all users (so we buy their hardware which contains an opensource software and then they lock it... PERFECT!), and it seems that the only way now is to get the unlock code by contacting third-party codes providers, pay money and they guarantee to provide the correct unlock code (pay and pray) + I will have to expose my device information.
My questions are:
-How can i see in the developer options that my OEM is already unlocked, while the recovery is not convinced?
-Do i really have to unlock it again with the code "after purchasing it ofcourse -- which i will never do" (e.g. using fastboot)?
-Is there any solution from xda experts for my case rather than buying codes and exposing my device information or stay with a Locked bootloader?

Thanks in advance for your kind support.
and Thanks Huawei for putting us as a development community in this situation, where we have to pay for the black markets to unlock our own phones in an unofficial way.

IMEI, product S/N (if i correctly understood the process, i have to provide my device info so they can extract the bootloader unlock key)

According to the information that's available, the code used to unlock the bootloader is unlocked in a very complicated way and it's basically unique for everyone. Now, I don't know how much this is true and how and why these people got their hands on the "method" of creating the code, but no one has been able to find a way that's guaranteed to work or even work at all, except for, of course, these sites that make you pay for it. I hope I'm not mistaken and forgive me if I am, but I don't think there is any way to obtain the bootloader code manually or without exposing your information to random strangers on the internet.

Unlock bootloader of Samsung devices without internet and account, possible?

Hello,
can the bootloaders of Samsung devices be unlocked without internet? So offline unlocking and without online account.
My Xiaomi phone and Realme phone need an internet connection and an online account to unlock the bootloader. There is no local possibility.
How about Samsung devices, e.g. the current Samsung Galaxy Note 20, can you unlock the bootloader locally, i.e. without internet connection and online account?

u could prolly unlock it give ur model is unlockable.. but ull runvinto issues with kg status being prenormal until u connect to data so u wouldnt b able to flash anything.. theres also a chance itll need to cojnect to data in order for the oem toggle to appear.. so most likely yes , u will need data either way

What do you mean by that exactly?
I want to buy a current Samsung Galaxy Note 20 (Snapdragon model) and unlock the bootloader and flash custom ROM.
That means I want to have the general possibility to unlock or lock the bootloader whenever I want to and it must be local.
I do not want these 3 points.
1. Bootloader can only be unlocked with an online account.
2. Request an unlock code on the manufacturer's website. Requires an internet connection to the manufacturer's server and must provide an email address to get the unlock code and then the user can enter it into ADB (Android Debug Bridge) to unlock the bootloader.
3. Install an unlock app (.apk) from the manufacturer and the Android device will be unlocked by the unlock app, but needs an internet connection in the unlock app.
Note:
I have tested everything with current Android 10 devices.
At point 1 I know it on my Xiaomi device.
At point 2 I know it on my Sony, LG and Nokia devices.
At point 3 I know it on my Asus and Realme devices.
I'm looking for Android devices that have a local and direct possibility to unlock the bootloader without online account, without unlock code (online request), without internet connection.

Another question you say on Samsung devices there is a KG State, what is that exactly?
I searched the forum, but there was no such clear information. As I understand it, it seems that when this "KG state" is set to "prenormal" on Samsung devices, the user cannot flash custom ROM and unlock the bootloader for about 7 days (168 hours).
Is this true?
What exactly does this KG State solve, how can it be prevented? Does it only happen for Samsung with Snapdragon model or only for Exynos model?

you will need a data connection.. even if bl is unlocked after u unlock it will wipe device.. u then need to reboot and skip through setup wizard and connect to mobile data or else kg status will be "prenormal" and not let you flash anything custom..
kg state is different than the 7day period. kg is also called knox guard and no, theres no way around it, u have to connect to data for it to change. it is on all samsung devices exynos and snapdragon.
and thats if its unlockable.. not all snapdragon devices can b unlocked.
also this isnt a xiaomi or lg or nokia or asus or realme device.. samsung has its own extra security..
theres no easier way to explain it.. i suggest u read up on it and check existing samsung device forums to get more info

I have now tested more Android devices and finally found Android devices where I can locally unlock the bootloader and also flash locally custom ROM without data connection, unlock code, online account and KG State.
It is a Google Pixel 3 and a OnePlus 7T. It is important that it is not the T-Mobile version!
So no provider devices, because when I bought a OnePlus 7T T-Mobile version I could not unlock the bootloader. It needs a unlock code (online request), because of SIM-Lock. It is not possible to unlock the bootloader directly and locally, for example to flash the stock rom (without T-Mobile).
My recommendation to the users, if you are looking for Android devices that can unlock the bootloader locally (via ADB) and flash locally custom ROM. Then Google Pixel and OnePlus devices that can do this, but only the free provider version, very important!

huh? you talk about bl lock because of sim lock (sim lock has nothing to do with it, even agter getting sim unlocked they are still not bl unlockable) then unlock locally via adb (isnt it fastboot which is not adb?) then pixel and one plus (theres many many other devices that are bl unlockable besides these two) then but only free provider version (huh?)

I meant fastboot and not ADB. Sorry, I downloaded this here on XDA forum. I have simply considered ADB as a whole
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
Yes generally do not buy a provider version for all Android devices. There are only additional restrictions and is always dependent on the provider server.
I have to do this here with my OnePlus T-Mobile version, see the OnePlus support page.
https://support.oneplus.com/app/ans...-to-unlock-bootloader-for-oneplus-smart-phone
I need to unlock the SIM and request an OEM code and then I can unlock the bootloader locally and flash locally custom ROM or stock rom (without T-Mobile).
I can confirm that these Android devices Google Pixel and OnePlus without provider version can by default unlock the bootloader locally and flash custom ROM locally.
The user can just buy these Android devices in the store and do everything locally right away. No data connection is required. All you need are the tools and the custom ROM on the computer, which you can download and save to an external hard drive.
Quite simply said. Something similar when the user installs a Linux distribution (Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Fedora) on his computer or notebook.
Other Android devices, like I said before, need a data connection to unlock the bootloader, e.g. via app, online account or an unlock code (online request).
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=83480827&postcount=3
Samsung devices I haven't tested, but have the similar problem (needs data connection to flash custom ROM), which you wrote yourself, because of KG State.

This is important to say, thanks. True as it is, only Google and Oneplus devices are free to use (equals root). Google can even accommodate GrapheneOS.
from my poor understanding of the recent 2-3 generations:
Root and developer friendly: google, oneplus
+ GrapheneOS compatible : google
+ Ez single command unlock like when we were young : oneplus
+ OTA Updates when rooted : oneplus
+ flash update without PC : oneplus
+ Encryption never touched : oneplus
Relatively root friendly : xiaomi, asus, sony, lg
+ official "support" of unlocking : all
+ without internet spying aspect of the procedure : none?
+ "featuring" disgusting wait period : xiaomi (realme)
+ chance of losing encryption: high (it is possible to forget ROMs and TWRP and keep it on some models)
Root unfriendly : samsung
+ official "support" of unlocking : no
+ "featuring" knox trip : yes
+ "featuring" key combination to boot : most models
+ can't even unlock : note20?
Root almost impossible : huawei, oppo and other small brands
now i don't care how difficult the first root procedure is or to knock some stupid fuse, but rather care more about how update procedure is, and can't adher to the new "standard" of killing encryption by disablers, so naturally i'm stuck to oneplus for the daily driver device. i can only look at the pictures and reviews of other brands
*people who root will go to heaven*

huh?
lol i dont understand most of last two posts.. i have g988u g986u rooted on unlocked bl no problem, no buttons need to be pressed, twrp exists, custom roms are easy, dunno what grahpOS even is and the list goes on.. if u kno wat ur doing samsung isnt that bad but yes, google 0urchased devices of course are easy

I have read all the answers here and would like to add additional points that the OP (original poster) mentioned but did not add to a concise list.
+ Unlock bootloader without network connection and online account : Google, OnePlus
+ Rooting and flashing without network connection and online account : Google, OnePlus
Note: The 2 new points work immediately and only if it is not a provider device. If it is a provider device e.g. from T-Mobile it does not work, in this case (Google and OnePlus) you need for the first step (unlock bootloader) a code from the provider and is dependent on its server so simply put, you need a network connection.

This point generally applies to almost all Android devices, regardless of whether the manufacturer allows bootloader unlocking or not (e.g. Huawei).
It is confirmed several times by users in recent years see in XDA forums. Some examples Sony, LG, Asus, Xiaomi, Samsung, Realme, vivo, OPPO and Nokia, no matter if provider or non provider device. These Android devices spy because the first step (unlock bootloader), necessarily requires a network connection. For example, via online account, code or app (network connection required, sometimes it works only if the user has mobile data in the app).
Simply put without internet spying is not possible.
If only compare this point with iOS/iPadOS devices, so jailbreak. Then it is almost similar, that is on current iOS/iPadOS devices you also need a network connection first to complete the "iOS Setup", when that is done a jailbreak (if available for the respective iOS/iPadOS version can be made). In some cases, so with very old iOS devices for example the first iPhone you can bypass the iOS setup (so without network connections) and can then, as usual make a jailbreak.

Another question you say on Samsung devices there is a KG State, what is that exactly?
I searched the forum, but there was no such clear information. As I understand it, it seems that when this "KG state" is set to "prenormal" on Samsung devices, the user cannot flash custom ROM and unlock the bootloader for about 7 days (168 hours).
Is this true?
What exactly does this KG State solve, how can it be prevented? Does it only happen for Samsung with Snapdragon model or only for Exynos model?

Pixels from Google and One Plus is what your looking for. In both cases you will have to fully boot the phone skip thru setup unlock developer option oem unlock toggle before you can unlock pixel or one plus

People this is a very big problem with Samsung and other manufacturers. Current smartphones are not independent devices, without server of the manufacturer nothing works.
LG is closing the bootloader unlock program that would help keep its Android phones alive
After ending its mobile business earlier this year, LG has confirmed it will also shut down the bootloader unlock program.

Here is a very recent example. LG will soon close its key server for unlocking the bootloader. Until December 31, 2021, you still have time to unlock the bootloader of your LG smartphones. Later it is no longer possible.
