I have the Huawei Ascend Y300-0151 and am trying to unlock the bootloader, in which I cannot get through their website because it's really buggy and won't accept my information.
So these are the steps I've taken:
- Download SDK Manager and install platform-tools and Google USB Driver
- Boot my phone up and connect to the PC
- I can run the command 'adb devices' and my device shows with a unique ID.
- Boot my phone into recovery/download mode (purple screen).
- Connect my phone, the PC detects it.
- However, when I run the command 'fastboot devices', nothing shows up.
Yes, I have installed a driver for my device and it's now showing as Android Bootloader Interface.
I've run out of ideas and have been googling for answers for a very long time, but to no avail.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Given that your attempting to unlock the bootloader of your Huawei device, you should probably send an email to Huawei support requesting for your bootloader unlock code (thats what I did and they replied asking for my device information, and I gave it to them to which I then got my unlock code). For ADB to work you need to boot into fastboot mode, not recovery, then simply use the bootloader unlock code with the following command in cmd: fastboot oem unlock <insert your code here>
And then your done. Be cautious when unlocking your bootloader as you should make sure you have your developer options enabled and the "allow bootloader to be unlocked" option enabled as well.

I have e-mailed them 2 weeks ago and they are not replying. You're meant to do it through their website, but as I've said, I supply the correct information and it either re-directs to a page that is not there or says I am not entering my information correctly when I've done it over and over again.
The purple screen is fastboot mode isn't it? Because that's the screen I'm entering the commands in, but it's not showing up. I cannot enter in a code for fastboot oem unlock because my device will not be recognized by fastboot in the first place.
So before I am to unlock my bootloader, I'm trying to get my device recognized by fastboot.

You can send them an email to get the unlock code, trust me, thats what I did. Maybe try contacting them via their support section of their site if you didn't do so last time.
By the "purple screen" do you mean the screen with options such as "HBOOT", "Fastboot", "Reboot" etc.? The "fastboot devices" command should work if it is recognised by the command "adb devices"

I'll give it a go again, thanks.
By purple screen, I mean holding down the power button and both volume control buttons and the screen boots into a purple screen. Just a purple screen, that's it. I can boot into two other modes by holding down the power button and the volume up button and another by holding the power button and volume down button. I don't have a boot mode that displays any options as you've listed above.
EDIT: I'm in fastboot mode now! It was the mode where you hold down the power button and volume down button. Hahaha. I'll let you know how I get on with unlocking the bootloader. Thanks for your help
No problem, if you found my replies helpful please press the thanks button! It is much appreciated!

I recently purchased 2 Asus TF103C stocked with Android 4.4.2 and running on an Intel processor. I'd like to load a custom OS/ ROM to them for work however I have not had any success finding a process that allows me to do so. I have managed to root the tablet successfully but that is the extent of my accomplishment to date. I understand that this is a fairly new device and not much has been uncovered yet to achieve this task. Asus is also hesistant to release an unlocked bootlooder update. If anyone is aware of a process whether through adb or the likes please raise your voice to help the community out on this one.

Before following steps bellow mentioned don't forget to install USB and ADB drivers
Also download minimal ADB and Fastboot tools ( for links use google search its easily available)
Configure your compute for fastboot Enable USB debugging on the device.
Connect the device to the computer through USB.
From a terminal on a computer, type the following to boot the device into fastboot mode
$*adb*reboot bootloader
Once the device is in fastboot mode, verify your PC sees the device by typing*
fastboot devices
If you don't see your device serial number, and instead see "<waiting for device>",
fastboot is not configured properly on your machine.
If you see "no permissionsfastboot", try running
fastboot as root.
From the same terminal, type the following command to get info of the bootloader:
fastboot oem-info
To unlock type
fastboot oem unlock
And press enter
May this will unlock your boot loader in general

Hello, I tried your command suggestions to unlock the bootloader and they failed. The command 'fastboot oem-info' does not return anything and 'fastboot oem unlock' returns RESULT: FAIL (unkown OEM command) on the tablet and in the cmd window. Thanks for the suggested attempt nonetheless.
Still having this problem
fastboot oem unlock fails on the TF103C and it says RESULT:FAIL(unknown OEM command). It would be great if Asus could release a tf103c_unlock.apk utility like they have for other Asus tablets (for instance the TF701T has tf701_unlock.apk which works).
Asus, please help!
My Z5 compact was updated to Nougat using the OTA service.
The bluetooth integration to my car stopped working and I read that this was a noted problem I decided to flash my phone back to Marshmallow.
I'd installed custom ROMs on previous HTC phones following info from XDA so was pretty confident.
After following the Sony guidelines and obtaining my unlock key I am unable to get it to work in fastboot mode.
I suspect that it is a USB problem at one end or another.
If I connect up the phone to the PC using the original lead I can find it using adb devices and the device is showing up as error free "Sony sa0113 ADB Interface Driver" in Windows 10 device manager.
However the phone isn't charging and I can't get it into Fastboot by holding the up vol key and plugging in the USB lead.
I can get a black screen with the blue led by running adb reboot bootloader and the phone is recognised from fastboot devices but when I try to unlock the bootloader I get an error:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xB4D9AxxxxC359F2C
...
FAILED (remote: Command did not succeed)
finished. total time: 0.042s
Any help appreciated.

Thanks. I think I am OK there because I accepted the drivers from an unverified source during installation.
Also I can see the phone with both adb devices and fastboot devices
However when I run adb reboot bootloader the phone reboots but comes up with a blank screen with the blue led.
adb reboot bootloader just goes into bootloader mode and not fastboot mode which is needed to unlock it. Go directly into fastboot by typing adb reboot fastboot
Then when your phone led is flashing blue, run your fastboot "oem unlock" command.
Saw now that you already tried that sorry about that.
Tried running cmd with admin privileges to see if that shows any difference?
Also from sony:
Please note! It will only be possible to unlock the boot loader for certain releases. You can check if it is possible to unlock the boot loader of your device in the service menu by following the steps below:
In your device, open the dialler and enter *#*#7378423#*#* to access the service menu.
Tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with the next step. If it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked.

You don't need to unlock your bootloader to simply downgrade to official MM! Just use flashtool to flash the appropriate MM ftf. There are plenty guides available on XDA and elsewhere.
I'm lost in your explanation.
You wanted to unlock your bootloader to be able to downgrade your phone? That's right? And it's fine to me, but you don't need to do that if you don't feel like. Unlocking your bootloader is nog necessary to downgrade to MM via flashtool.
So you tried to unlock your bootloader. But what you write what happened afterwards is completely unclear to me, because it contradicts itself.
-->> "Also I can see the phone with both adb devices and fastboot devices"
Fine. This means your connected with your phone and fastbook recognizes your phone. So bootloader is unlocked and software to control that works fine.
-->> "However when I run adb reboot bootloader the phone reboots but comes up with a blank screen with the blue led."
Fine, so you unlocked your bootloader, and rebooted in fastboot.
-->> Obviously. It's an unlocked bootloader, you can double unlock it or something like that. You can relock it if you want (which doesn't make any difference for what you want to do) but that's a different method.
Is there any reason that you absolutely need to a second method to enter fastboot mode? Or any fastboot mode? It could be possible with another kernel, but I don't see the point to flash another kernel. I would just leave it like it is.

that is notmal behaviour, that is fastboot mode, indicated by that blue LED
Thanks for the clarification that I don't need to unlock the bootloader to downgrade using flashtool. What I didn't say was that I couldn't reinstall Nougat using the Sony tool software restore option or get anywhere with flashtool because the phone won't go into the blue led mode by inserting the USB and holding the up vol button. I did try running flashtool in one window and the command line tools in another with the idea of running flashtool first and then unplugging the phone and replugging it to use command line to get the blue LED state, but that doesn't work because the command line tools can't see the phone once flashtool is running and has addressed the phone.
From what i read, i assume you are on nougat and want to go back to MM, right?
So you would need flashmode instead of fastboot mode.
You get there with holding Vol down button and plugging in USB cable on turned off phone.
Flashmode also shows a green notification light instead of the blue one.
If you having Problems to get there, please check following:
make sure to have latest version of flashtool installed http://www.flashtool.net/downloads.php
install drivers from your flashtool\drivers folder
don't use an USB 3.0 port or cable(have heard of some people having trouble with)

OP, I had the exact same problem as you. At the time I tried absolutely everything but never found the culprit. So after several months I actually succeeded today
This is the guide I followed - https://forum.xda-developers.com/z5-compact/general/guide-how-to-root-z5c-painful-using-t3549388 and it worked perfectly.
A few pointers:
- Go to the service menu (*#*#SERVICE#*#*) before you begin, before you turn OEM Unlocking ON from Dev Options .
- Take note of what it says in Configuration and Firmware.
- Now enable OEM Unlocking and take note again, it should say stuff like Model Number: Unknown and other unknown stuff.
- Reboot - IMPORTANT.
- Use the guide I gave you and you will be fine, it took me ages to find a solution but now I'm on MM and rooted
Hope I helped :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
Hey all i dont know what the deal is but ive got an lg g5 that just will not boot to the bootloader. I've tried factory resetting it and all the methods to get to bootloader just reboots the phone fully. Adb reboot booloader, key combos, nothing seems to work. Any ideas??
First, connect your smartphone with your PC; plug in the USB cord in order to establish the connection.
On your computer access the Android SDK folder.
From there open a command prompt window: press and hold the Shift keyboard key while right clicking on any blank space.
Next, in the cmd window type “adb reboot bootloader” and wait while the bootloader mode is displayed on your smartphone
That's basically what I did and worked first time..make sure the adb and fastboot package is installed and open the command window from that folder

Did all that.. I mean I've flashed custom recoveries and roms to other phones before and never really had a problem i couldn't google..this has me stumped. It simply refuses to even access the bootloader.
If it helps it was a koodo phone and is running the latest official patch from lg on nougat. The only thing i could find online was that sprint supposedly removed all access to the bootloader on theirs, but i cant find any real info on that either. It reboots when i send the adb reboot bootloader but its like fastboot just isn't there..?? It reboots right back to the android home screen. Ive tried all possible key combos as well... Ugh
Which model is it..mines the h850
Ive got the h831
I think I've sort of answered my own question. From browsing the forums it appears the Canadian variant has the bootloader locked down and inaccessible, which would explain a lot..lol.. I really hate when this kind of thing is done to the consumer...ugh. Back to xiaomi i guess lol

You must unlock bootloader first
Does uypur phone show the authorization popup when you connect for adb and have you allowed always allow this device?
What are you all talking about in this thread?
There is NO WAY to initially unlock the bootloader without MI account, phoning home and waiting 167+hours.

Whatever you want to do after that, requires this step before. There is no "root without MI account".
So I just purchased this phone and am trying to follow the instructions on the Sony site. The rooting status in my service menu says my devices should be able to be unlocked.
Device is on android 13 on latest update, OEM unlock and USB debugging are both enabled.
I downloaded the usb drivers and the platform tools from the Sony site.
I opened a command prompt in the platform tools folder and when I run fastboot devices I get a response
When I run the command with my unlock code, I get the error
FAILED (remote: Command not supported in default implementation)
I tried to go to device manager to update the drivers, however when I do that it says the best driver is already installed.
I read in another thread to try to boot into the bootloader rather than fastboot. When I select reboot to bootloader the device seemingly shuts off.
EDIT: OK, I'm dumb and was in fastbootd mode rather than fastboot. I've now entered fastboot correctly (holding volume up while I plug it in, getting a black screen and a blue LED), updated the drivers correctly, and am now getting the error that the device is already unlocked. Now I guess I just need to verify that it is indeed unlocked, anyone have some advice on that?
EDIT 2: OK it seems to be going through the unlock process despite that error rather than the expected confirmation. After a few reboots it is now giving me the setup process again so I hope it worked. Leaving thread up for others who have the same issue to stumble accross.
