Hello there. I have a Nokia 6.1 with android 9.0 and i tried to root it. I enabled the developer mode, then enabled usb debugging.
But when i tried to unlock the bootloader, i couldn't because the OEM unlocking option stays greyed out on off. So when i installed adb and fastboot, i tried to boot by adb reboot bootloader but the fastboot can't do anything because it says device is locked.
I even factory reset the device, nothing. Same thing.
What should i do? Preferably not the paid unlock...
Thanks in advance.
Try this (It will wipe the phone, so create a backup of all important files before proceeding):
1. Connect your phone to your PC with an USB cable (make sure you have activated USB debugging in developer options)
2. Run adb
3. Type in adb reboot bootloader
4. Once your phone has rebooted type in fastboot flashing unlock or fastboot oem unlock
You should have unlocked your bootloader and you should be good to go, if it doesn't work then you'll need an unlock key, which unfortunately you'll have to pay for
If you think that you have misunderstood some steps then feel free to reply

Hey all,
So Ive tried to unlock my bootloader but its not working, ive followed the steps from this site to unlock it but its stuck on the unlock bootloader screen. I have two options to choose from yes or no I click yes but it doesnt work, yet I click no and it takes me back to choose from fastboot, recovery and normal. My phone is a Alcatel Pixi 4.
I have enabled developer mode enabled usb debugging. I also have confirmed the RSA fingerprint for the computer. Also I have enabled OEM unlock in dev settings. This is what my cmd prompt window loooks like. I will also take a photo of my alcatel frozen on bootloader screen.
C:\Users\Dan\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools>adb devices
List of devices attached
5HQGTCEQCAVS7TTS device
C:\Users\Dan\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools>adb reboot-bootloader
C:\Users\Dan\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools>fastboot oem unlock
...
This is what my phone looks like that im stuck on.
https://s11.postimg.org/8e2cjxooj/IM...129_172555.jpg
does anyone know why this is happening or know how to fix?
Issue has been solved as the bootloader is unlocked this process is not necessary.
OEM unlocking and USB Debugging enabled.
ADB never finds the phone in my windows 10 install no matter what drivers I force it to use. - Tried USB 2 and 3.
Fastboot does find it if I manually start it in fastboot mode, but it can't do anything to it
Fails to write when doing oem unlock
Just sits there if I tell it to write the recovery image.
Phone functions fine, I just want root and a 3rd party rom to be rid of any built in spyware.
Any ideas? any way to root it without flashing then I can just have the twrp app flash it?
Nevermind, found a way around it. This dialpad command made it work

Hope this will help someone with trouble getting ADB/Fastboot to work. I assume you have a similar environment to me: Windows 10, with working ADB drivers on another device (LG G4 in my case)
Set up LeMax2 in developer mode and enable USB debugging as usual.
Plug in usb and dial *#*#76937#*#* check the box that says "Enable AT Port"
The device should immediately give you the approval message for USB debugging.
Note: This will not stick after a reboot.
Once I had this working, I did an adb reboot recovery, but fastboot still did not work. With the device connected and at the stock recovery screen, I had to open device manager, delete the LeMax device, and allow it to detect again. Finally it appeared in fastboot devices and I was able to flash recovery.

Hi...
You apparently have enabled developer options and usb debugging. Did you also enable OEM unlocking from the same menu?

On your device, go to Settings -----> About phone. Tap 7 times on the “build number“. You should now have enabled developer mode. Go back to the Settings menu and enter "Developer options" and enable USB debugging. Also check “OEM unlocking“. (It might be that you firstly have to connect the phone to a PC and tick “always allow this computer”and then get back to developer options menu and check “OEM unlocking“.
You may then start working with adb and fastboot.
(ps. Be aware that unlocking the bootloader triggers automatic factory reset - you will lose what you have not backed up)

Ok... Step by step... Please make sure you type exactly the commands as shown here:
1. type adb devices if it works, and shows your device then:
2. type adb reboot bootloader. If it works, and you should boot to bootloader. Next:
3. type: fastboot devices. Is you device stiil listed??? If not then there is some kind of trouble here. Your device is listed by adb, but not fastboot. If that is the case I personally do not have experience to help out. The only thing I can think of is that you may have missing drivers that do not allow correct communication between you device and PC.
If that is not the case and your device is listed by fastboot, then:
4. type: fastboot oem unlock. It will show that it is waiting. You will have to look at your device's screen and by using the devices buttons CONFIRM oem ulocking (on your device, not the windows command prompt)
5. If all goes well, your device should ask ask to reboot. Either reboot from menu, or just hold down the power button for a while.
6. After reboot, if all went well, your device will restart and perform an automatic factory reset. You cannot do anything about it. It just happens with OEM unlocking. At this point let it boot normally, and re-enable developer options and usb debugging to continue with root process, or anything that you want to do.
Can't thing of anything else for the moment... Let us know how it goes, perhaps a more experienced member, could share some insights???
I have already enabled usb debugging and oem unlocking yet neither adb reboot bootloader nor using the volume down + power button boot into bootloader mode, both of them lead to the tablet restarting normally to system

The problem is at Step 2 adb reboot bootloader only reboot device not booting it into bootloader.
anyone else getting this problem?
Let's wake this thread in a bang! ?
Come on guys! Did anyone manage to deal with the problem? I have absolutely the same issue. Step 2 is the problem for me too. No fastboot mode neither through adb reboot bootloader nor the tablet physical buttons. I get either a normal reboot or the stock recovery which has not many options.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

That's not a proper unlock bootloader..it is safe unlock bootloader using unlock tools from xiaomi. If you unlock the bootloader to CMD it's a chance to brick. I think the proper to unlock is xiaomi tools

At first, tks for all.
I tried to root with your informations but always get the same information, they say I don't have permition to do anything else.
"FAILED (remote: 'Token Verify Failed, Reboot the device')
in fastboot: error: Command failed
in ADB token error still the same.
Some other Idea to try help will be appreciated
Sorry my bad english.

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.
PERIOD. let that sink in.

Whatever you want to do after that, requires this step before. There is no "root without MI account".
