Not working for me either. I am on A300FU ANL5 locked to EE UK..
I believe this is a hoax and should be looked into and removed if it is because that post is spammed across google and no other references have been made, where did this guy supposedly find this method or how did he discover it?

If you have A300H you should only flash things made for A300H because you can brick your phone
I would like to know the same. Will i be able to flash unbranded software on my o2 branded locked a3?

help will be appreciated. awaiting your responses :good::good::good:
yeas you can,if your phone is as you said with unlocked bootloader
The phone is unlocked in the sense that i can use any sim card on it BUT it still displays Three.co.uk carrier logo while booting up how can i tell if the bootloader is unlocked or locked?
1.power of phone
2.then push & hold menu+VOL+ + Power Button together antill galaxy logo on the screen upear
3.than realise the 3 button
you will than enter in 3e recovery menu
there you will see info bootloader : OFF or ON & you will know is your phone locked or not
it takes me to simple android recovery? there is no option as bootloader off or on? ... asks me to press vol up to confirm if i want to load a custom os when i do...it enters recovery...which knox code 0x0 and other details......What am i looking for here?
sorry vol- I mean ,than continue in downlod menu you will see info
So my problem is that I bought this phone from China, and the software that was put in it is the version (STF-L09C432B120) and it doesn't find updates. Do you know if I can put another version which will download the 8.0 update ? I am really worried that I might brick it.
Thanks in advance
I'm new here btw
Edit : does anyone here know how to unlock the boot loader ? Because I assume that I'll need to do that if I can install another ROM. (Yes. I am now aware that Huawei and Honor do not support it anymore.)

Try updating with Firmware Finder which you can find in google store. If it won't work, connect your phone to pc and try updating with HiSuite app
To unlock bootloader try this but i dont know if its going to work on chinese software.
1. go to https://emui.huawei.com/ and log in with your HUAWEI ID
2. go to UNLOCK page and get your unlock key.
3. In settings of your phone search for HDB and enable that option.
4. go to settings > system > about phone and click few times on compilation number to enable programmer settings.
5. go back to settings > system > programmer settings and enable USB debugging and unlock OEM
6. download HiSuite, connect your phone and make Backup of everything that you need (unlocking bootloader wipes everything on your internal storage)
7. If you cant connect your device, try to do this https://ph.answers.acer.com/app/answ...er-enforcement
8. download this zip and extract on your desktop. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1A0...qqUYv-NnXWi5vD
9. inside the folder hold SHIFT and press right click and click open power shell here.
10. type .\adb devices
11. type .\adb reboot bootloader
12. type .\fastboot oem unlock [your unlock key]
13. Press volume + on your phone to select YES and than power button to confirm.
14. Now your bootloader is unlocked and your phone will do the factory reset.
Update straight to C432B183 fullOTA-MF with androidapp 'Firmware Finder'.
Doing that, you won't mess your capacitives buttons and should be able to get normal oreo ota then.
It's told Firmware Finder doesn't work anymore since ~3months ; You'll have at least to try.
If not working, there is a C432B130 service repair firmware available for nougat. It flash in firmware mode (dload) and it need an usb-otg or microSD exfat formated.
---------- Post added at 21:21 ---------- Previous post was at 21:19 ----------
& Once on C432B130 you'll get the ota normally.
Still. I don't have a boot unlocker. And are you sure it won't brick it ?
Sure.
What do you mean by sure ?
Sure, i'm sure it won't brick.

If something goes wrong, and your phone doesn't booted, just try to reboot several times. It will change the slot automatically after several boot failure, and will be back to before the update. Or boot into the bootloader and change the slot manually, 'set active_slot x'. x is a or b. use a slot marked as successful.

hi friends I have tried several times to start joyui11 the problem in the start screen flashes several times and asks you to reset joyui 11 when I managed to start it anyway I noticed many bugs and system settings problems such as (lock screen) etc. that in my opinion I am not from the same region at the end I went back with my region with automatic update 01mp3-01mp4-01mp5 besides it does not update anymore I am with bootloader unlocked with joyui11 it blocks you bootloader if you see developer settings it is blocked maybe because new android 10? it's very nice however the new interface changes little from miui. I hope it arrives for my region of Italy thanks for the support #vga0

Hey, several of my blackshark2 friends are not able to dial *#*#1027#*#*. It will prompt Connecton problem or invalid MMI code.
Fyi, I did successfully updated to Joy Ui 11 without issues, but not my friends.
Do you have solutions for that?
The upgrade worked flawlessly aand I am in awe in how much better it is now compared to the Android 9 one! One thing tough is not working; All the options for the light settings are grayed out. I was hoping that the side lights would finally work properly as a notification LED. Anyone else having this issue?
hello there,
do we still get stockish experience on the new joyui 11 update?
Attention skyw2004221os00mq0 ota
after various tests and various reboots joyui11 works only with blocked bootloader I discovered this I did not understand why the new update did not work it crashed and the system did not work well then I tried to block bootloader so starting from 1mp5 to 0mq0 to run no startup problem and now fingerprints also work.attention to update with unlocked bootloader
So joyui11 shifts from stock to miui as base. Would there be a stock variant of joyui11?

Bro how do you lock the bootloader again? In any firmware (Mp3, mp4, etc) my bootloader stills unlocked. Only in the first time that I try JUI11 goes blocked
#Diex_7
it is better to start factory reset from settings
1 go back to mp3 depends on your region (global or EEA) so (0mp3 or 1mp3)
2 have the system perform automatic updates to the last
3 use pc adb and fastboot
4 enable usb debug developer settings
5 use pc command (adb reboot bootloader) and confirm usb debug notification
6 use pc adb command (fastboot flashing lock) gives you okay
7 press power button the phone asks you to reset foul otherwise you can't go on
8 once the system has started, activate developer settings and deactivate unlock oem
9 download joyui11 * # * # 1027 # * # * install and you're done only with locked bootloader does android 10 joyui11 work

Sorry for late answer and thank you for commenting. JoyUI11 changes its base and has lots of incompatible settings. Reset before/after, restore/disable all customs,locks are recommended strongly, and OEM unlock is also seemed as bug because MIUI and stockUI has completely different unlock management
Skyw2004221os00mq0 ota
it's true however there are some bugs that can be fixed in the updates.
the battery consumes more on 0mq0 games sometimes like COD skip screen and you have to re-enter the side led strips are off the s sign on developer settings some functions do not go the brightness when you unlock becomes strong however a great job is a real adapted miui stockui was boring now you can also install apk miui
I need to flash a different firmware onto my Note 20. I haven't dealt with this before so I'm pretty new.
The situation: I removed the frp lock but I still have an OEM lock and KG Lock on it.
I have tried to mess with PIT files but no luck. A friend that crossed me locked it so I cant even go into setting to disable the OEM lock.
Wdym locked it?

No I mean the KG lock, my friend put some sort of lock on it that reappears after a factory reset and needs a pin to access the phone.

Hello Guys
I want to tell how to bypass RMM state: prenormal to install TWRP
Also this will resolve "Only official binaries are allowed"
Disclaimer:
I am NOT responsible for any damage done if you use my guide.
It worked for me 100% and should normally work for everybody!
Feel free to share to anyone else or to embed if you want.

2. Install latest Stock base via Odin Odin v3.13.1 direct download
3. Boot into system
4. Skip the setup
5. Activate Developer settings
6. search and turn of automatic system update
7. Go to time settings and deactivate automatic time
8. Turn back the day for more than 7 days. ( I have turned to the 20th Dec 2018)
9. Search for Software update -> Don't install update
10. Look if latest time searched for updates is the date which you have set. (for me 20th Dec 2018)
11. Reboot your device
12. go into the time settings and reactivate the automatic time
13. Search again for software update - > Still don't install
14. Go to Developer settings
15. deactivate OEM Unlock and reactivate
16. Go to download mode and you will don't see RMM state anymore
18. install TWRP by odin
19. boot into TWRP
20. format data
21. reboot recovery
22. flash verity.zip // found on https://build.nethunter.com/android-tools/no-verity-opt-encrypt/
23. Et voilà! You got completely functional TWRP on your device with Pie Bootloader
24. Flash your preferred Rom!

This that?
Hi All.
Yesterday I bought this thing and as with everything, I immediately attempted to begin rooting the damn thing.
Update: 6th of November 2021
I re-enabled Developer Options and OEM Unlocking became selectable. Don't know how.
NOTE #1: The Motorola Edge 20 Lite also is the Motorola Edge 20 Fusion
NOTE #2: This Motorola Edge 20 Fusion was bought in Australia with it Carrier Unlocked from JB HiFi (Tech shop)
So far I have been unsuccessful and as the 3rd of November 2021 am currently stuck at:
"Your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking."
After 30 minutes of online chat with Motorola's support I ended up getting this response:
"Try to check if your device was listed here : https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/87215."
This info was already known to me
"You can reach-out some help at this site : Here's the link: https://forums.motorola.com/search?find=unlock+bootloader"
Yay. Great fun
The below steps are what I have tried so far
ROOT Attempt Steps
Enable Developer Options
Enable USB Debugging
Power off device
Power Button + Down Volume until startup
Volume Keys until "Recovery Mode"
Start
At "No Command" Hold Power and press the Up Volume
"Mount /System"
Enter FastBoot - This will restart once or twice
(On Windows) Open up cmd go to adb and fastboot installation folder
(On Windows) run "fastboot oem get_unlock_data" which should then "Wait for device"
Volume key to "Reboot to bootloader"
Eventually during the reboot it should provide you the oem unlock data
Follow the instructions here: https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-b
???
OEM Unlocking becomes selectable # NOTE: This became selectable on the 6th of November.
Profit
I am stuck at number 14 as for me it says "Your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking" and chatting with support tells me to go speak to a Developer on Lenovo's forum, but I would rather be dealing with XDA Developers honestly.
I am putting this all here for future men to attempt to figure out. Hopefully with time we will get a solution.
P.S. Two other options that I have seen elsewhere as well:
Factory Reset your device after getting your Sim Card installed and it Online
The it stay online for a Week and then "OEM Unlocking"
1st didn't work and I doubt 2nd will fix it.
Cheers.
> Root Possibilities? - What has been tried and tested...
It is possible.
Here is hints.
I already have rooted my Edge 20 Fusion with the standard ROM version RRK31.Q3-19-54
See https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-unlocked-bootloader-non-twrp-method.4222583/
You have to install the USB driver for Motorola smartphone before using adb.exe and fastboot.exe execution.
And execute adb.exe devices or fastboot.exe devices and check the connection between Edge 20 fusion and PC.
If the command says "Wait for device", it is failure the connection.
In good connection case, then we can see a DEVICE NAME.
The USB driver is here, https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/prod_answer_detail/a_id/88481/
Maybe you get a little bit confuse because you can not find boot.img under "C:\ProgramData\LMSA\Download\RomFiles\".
In my case, I found boot.img file under "C:\ProgramData\RSA\Download\RomFiles\".
These paths are a little bit diffirent.
Patch boot.img by the Magisk on your Edge 20 fusion.
You have to unlock the bootloader before flashing patched boot.img file into your Edge 20 fusion.
Edge 20 fusion have boot_a and boot_b partitions.
Enjoy!
how did you unlock the bootloader? officially through the moto website or unofficially using a tool like mtkclient?

Came here lurking from DuckDuckGo. Sounds promising.
Only query I have is: would it be currently possible to unbrick the phone in case something goes wrong?
Unlock code and 72 hours wait for OEM unlock option to change from grey.. Worked great for me.
I googled RRKS31.Q3-19-97-3 and found a link to firmware on androidfilehost
Only extracted the boot.img to patch in magisk.
Flashed to boot_a and boot_b in fastboot. Job done

I had re-installed latest ROM by the Rescue and Smart Assistant from a booting loop accident.
1 week ago, I had made my Edge 20 Fusion booting loop accident.
At that time, I had accidentally corrupted the file /system/build.prop file.
I was so paniced.
Fortunately my Edge 20 Fusion booted with the fastboot mode.
Then, I had rescued(re-installed) my Edge 20 Fusion by the Rescue and Smart Assistant.
the Rescue and Smart Assistant makes to install latest ROM.
I noticed that the quality of the camera has improved on ROM RRKS31.Q3_19_98.
I am so happy now ;-)
Maybe we can recover a Edge 20 Fusion with manually flashing ROM.
Please be careful, I have no experience or conviction for a manual recovering.
And you should get and memo two IMEI numbers(slot 1 and slot 2) before rooting your device.
Because the Rescue and Smart Assistant checks IMEI number for the identify a device when we try to rescue.
I didn't have IMEI, but I was able to rescue it.
How to boot with the fastboot mode.
Volume down button + Power button.
Enjoy rooted environment.
