Hi masters
I want to flash a new kitkat rom to my phone cause currently it has lollipop
But I cant unlock it, I have tried it several times using fastboot but nothing happens.
Is this mean I cant unlock it? Is there another way other than fastboot?
Thanks much!!!
hi there,
like the title says im trying to flash a different / older/ stock ROM to see if i can unlock the bootloader and or if anyone knows a way i can root my device without the bootloader that would be great too but i think ive expended all my options..... if you can help in any way that would be great! thank you
also i have flashtool downloaded but can not get it to work with my device just keeps saying my bootloader can not be officially unlocked ..... can it be unofficially unlocked?
You have to use the Xperia M2 method to unlock the bootloader as there is still no official way.
There are more than enough guides in other topics where you can read how to unlock your bootloader. First enter the service menu(*"*"service"*"*) and check is it is allowed on your device. If it says 'no' there is no way to unlock. Also if you can unlock don't forget to tick the box in developer options
For root you can afaik just install twrp for locked bootloaders and flash a root (supersu for example)
thanks guys ,
yes i have looked into the tutorials and cannot seem to make it work.
i tried the m2 method and nothing either ..... my bootloader says it cannot be unlocked but ive been reading and apparently there is a way to get around it .... ive successfully flashed different ROMS to try and gain root access too but with no luck
so i guess im asking if anyone has had luck with unclocking there "locked" bootloader on an m4 or if it is even possible at all?
any help is greatly appreciated
Hey guys, I have a xiaomi redmi note 3 pro kate running global developer version of miui 8.
I applied for permission of bootloader unlocking on the 30th of December. Ive been waiting for over 12 days and I'm still getting the notorious "couldnt verify device" . I have tried every single tips, tricks, methods thats available on numerous forum threads. None of them work. Don't bother suggesting me a "way" to unlock my bl thats "100% guranteed" cuz honestly i've given up hope. I dont want to unlock in the unofficial way either.
I read a thread here that says it's possible to flash twrp, root and flash all kinds of roms without unlocking the bl.
Could you guys maybe guide me through what i need to do to flash twrp and root? what do i need to do?And again, I have a kate.
yeah i want too flash root and stuff's without unlock bootloader, i have SD version of RN3, btw!
Hello Guys, my device got locked after updating my device from miui 8 to miui 9 through a OTA update, i flashed fastboot ROM but it didn't work, I followed a temperory solution not second storage but a solution through ADB drivers ( developers tools ) i formatted through recovery and went to welcome settings from there clicked on terms and conditions and went to Google app searched for settings - created second space then went to activate developers settings and clicked on bebugging on etc , then went back to first storage and activated developers settings and switched OEM unlock , usb debugging on etc than I connected my device to pc, before that I installed abd drivers , from computer I opened CMD and typed few codes like device is connected or not than removed find devices.apk using code by this step I'm able to use my device but I cannot restart or reboot or switch off my device , if I do so it will go to bootloop. By using another code find me device APK will be saved on SD card, a developer said install it as user app ( it can't be installed as user or system app it just installs the app ) and bootloop problem will be solved but when I install it then again device got locked immediately after the install.
So I'm looking for a permanent solution for this, please help me. Thank you
If the device is locked. just unlock it officialy already. and u cannot just remove find device apk without root. u just disabled it.
Need proper answer, waiting for help
I didn't get, What U meant by Device got locked. Few things that can be done, Unlock Bootloader and flash MiUi Fastboot ROM or use any other custom ROMs. Unlock bootloader via Official methods or u can try unofficial methods too.
