I bought a used chromebook and later found that it was locked by an enterprise.
The chromebook is on version 54 (64bit). Its developer mode is locked too. :crying:
If anyone knows anything, please reply!!
Try opening it up, removing the write-protect screw and pulling the battery to get into dev mode, then writing a new serial number in the shell.
See the guide at the following web address:

If still no success you can contact coolstar on his website: coolstar.org/chromebook/

There is an unlock bypass method here, but they all should be unlocked anyway. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1229254

No its not unlocked, this is what I cant understand. On the startup screen, I click on Register (newaccount) and then once I fill in the details it says an account cannot be created. Am really lost
Would you happen to have the demo unit video stored somewhere on the TouchPad?
Just download WebOS Doctor and do a factory settings. Since you`ve just bought it, don`t think it`s gonna be a big deal for u
Every time I try to download the Huawei unlock tool from their website, it takes me to a Chinese website saying that the server is busy. I was wondering if someone has that software file floating around on their computer that they could upload on here so I can download it?

Don't bother with that unlock tool. I downloaded it and it didn't work on my PC at all. And I am not disabling my virus scanner for some 3rd party Chinese software. That burnt me in the past.
Instead get the bootloader unlock code from the official Huawei website. Follow my guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/ascend-mate2/general/guide-step-step-wind-mobile-canada-t3387490
1) Get boatloader unlock code. Its 16 characters and you must get it from Huawei. If you cannot get this code you can stop right here. Nothing online will help you and there is no way around it. Trust me, I tried.
Lucky for you Huawei make it very easy now and automated the process. Before you must email [email protected] and wait for them to reply. (from what I read.)
Now you can get it here:
https://community.gethuawei.com/developers/f/48/t/1048
Or direct link:
http://emui.huawei.com/en/plugin.php...amp;mod=detail
I logged in with my Facebook. But you can try to create and login with your Huawei ID.
After logging in, you need to give them these information to get the bootloader unlock code:
---Product Model: MT2L03
---Product Serial Number: From the box of your phone. Or you can open up your phone case and look at the sticker on the battery for it. It is 16 characters. (The Serial Number as recorded in your phone memory is only 12 characters. It is not valid here.
---IMEI: From the box of your phone. Or you can open up your phone case and look at the sticker on the battery for it. Or type *#06# on your phone pad.
---Product ID: Type *#*#1357946#*#* on your phone pad.
After you get this code, record it somewhere and keep it safe. Huawei will only give you this code a few times before they start to seriously questioning you (from what I heard). So once you get it, expect to never be able ask for it again.
(Rooting is unnecessary. But you must unlock your bootloader, which will be done in step 5 below. )

Thanks for the response. I was able to finally get their online unlock tool on Huawei website to load, but now it's giving me an error saying I need to double check the model number, but I have everything inputted correctly. ):

Double check to make sure all the numbers are correct. Refresh the verification code before entering and submitting. Once you hit submit, wait patiently and do not hit submit again. It is slow and takes a while.
If they are and it still doesn't work, maybe you need to email to Huawei after all.
It seem they are updating that system. When I did it a few days ago, they never asked about if the product is a Smartphone or a Tablet.
P.S. You should remove that image containing your phone's information. This is public space and you don't want people stealing that.

Thanks for all of your help. I'll wait until tomorrow to try it again. Hopefully it'll turn around and work eventually. I removed the picture, thanks for the heads up
Any luck bud?
This is a problem, and it's doing my nut. I have a Vodafone Smart Mini 7, which I desperately want to root, to get all of Google's bloatware and the stuff the original network provider put on it.
I've already unlocked it to all networks, but the bootloader is being a PITA. I've done the usual with adb and fastboot, namely put it into USB Debugging, and then done this;
Code:
adb devices
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot getvar all
When I get to the section on the bootloader, it advises me that it's Secure.
I tried to use
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
and when I confirm on the phone that I want to unlock it, I get told that Remote Unlock is not allowed.
I assume that the fact that fastboot getvar all says that the bootloader is secure, means I need some sort of key to get it off. My old network provider don't know where to get it from, my tech team don't know where to get it from and I'm screwed.
Anyone got any ideas on whether I can get round the "secure" part of this, like some way of finding the key for it? Thanks

I have the exact same issue I read some threads and nothing solid has come out of it some say they managed to get root but others say they bricked the phone
Any news on this topic? I too have one i desperately would like to root because it is permanently full and you cant do anything wih it. The Google apps and the apps installed by my service provider take up all the onboard storage space. I downloaded only Whatsapp and Facebook Lite and bam,the phone is completely full and useless as it cant do updates,runs extremely slow and does all sorts of random stuff like restarting on its own etc. driving me utterly insane.
I have an European version of LG V10 H960a, Android 6.0. The official LG website provides an instruction how to generate an boot image for this phone with adb and fastboot. I did everything according to their instructions, I generated a device ID,I put both dev ID and IMEI to proper boxes in their website and after clicking "Confirm" each single time I received a message "Device ID is unmatched. Please check device ID...". I have been trying to repeat whole process by connecting via VPN from Polish IP number, because phone was bought in Poland while currently I am in UK. I created new account, I did everything accordingly to their instructions and still same. I have tried to contact with LG via email address given on their unlocking website [email protected] but they even did not bother to answer my emails and I tried to contact them TWICE! If someone have an idea how to unlock bootloader please help.

Voytek
Mu bootloader is unlocked BUT it does not have a write command... Its been removed and I cannot write a file to the rom through ADB. It says its successful but nothing writes to the rom. There is NOTHING I can do to root it short of removing the device and copying an image of the boot partition to it through Octopus or something like that. I'm pretty good with the V10 (H901) and have rooted several over a couple of years in succession until it dies with the usual bootloop hardware issue on the motherboard. I'm certain it's the most unreliable smartphone out there. I'm at the point of throwing the damn thing against a wall and being DONE with ALL of LG products forever.
Hello group I interested in rooting my Oneplus n 10. Now I've been doing research for the past week and a half but it's very confusing. First off my oem is greyed out in developers my mode, and second I don't own a computer. I did DL LADB app but for some reason I can't find the code to do so. Can someone give me a guide or a easy way to do so? Thanks I appreciate it.

Need PC
What @VovaHouse said... I know of no way without a PC.
If you have the global model (e.g. carrier indifferent) the phone still needs to connect to the Google Spyware server once before the OEM switch is ungreyed out. There is another thread where it is claimed this can be bypassed, but it was never worth it for me to do.
If you have a carrier model, you need to get it unlocked, which, like the rooting, requires a PC AFAIK. Maybe buy a cheap used one or something? Once you are freed, it is no longer required.
