Asus flash tool for ZS670KS\ZS671KS
http://www.mediafire.com/file/k5h5v8zthw6cr8d/AFT_ASUS.zip/file
The 7 pro and 6 are the ONLY phones I have had the experience of saying they do NOT need to be rooted..
It will record phone calls. It will come straight out the box with the least amount of bloat I ever seen. Also once Its bootunlocked I hear that some things will stop working like google pay. Its also a gamble to root cause its very new. I havent found a reason to root it.. The phone is a beast and really is super clean in and out.. I surely hope I can figure out WHY is not getting 4g and 5G on ATT
Can someone confirm if I unlock the bootloader (only to install TWRP for emergencies) will I lose OTA updates?
Because that's what I understand from the warning in the unlocked apk.
Thank you

From experience with Asus devices , you will loose Ota updates if you unlock with official tool. What happens generally is that the serial number of the device is sent to Asus servers through the tool to stop sending updates , only manually. You can unlock unofficially if there's the possibility.

My BL is unlocked and I've never received an OTA update, even after the full update has been made available via the Asus website.
I unlocked the bootloader using the unlock tool from Asus and it works (@dogoku I did lose OTA updates, but manual updates work), but now I want to relock it. I tried "fastboot oem asus-back" but it returns the error (along with any other fastboot command I tried):
FAILED (remote: 'Command not supported in default implementation')
fastboot: error: Command failed
What could be causing that error?

I don't use this device ,but from experience with asus devices , u can flash with a service/fastboot firmware and bootloader will be locked back , but you've lost ota updates for good.
What do you mean to flash with a service/fastboot firmware? Do you mean installing the firmware on Asus's support page?

If u don't know what that is ,u better relock with the file in the original post. Check "bootloader relock"
The original post to relock is a text file with the command "fastboot oem asus-back" which is what I tried (and have seen elsewhere on the internet for the Zenfone 7), but it gave the error in my first post.

Uhm, the command is actually asus-lock, I don't know where you got "back" from. So you should be putting in
"fastboot oem asus-lock"
I keep getting this error: "failed to unlock your device, please try again later".
Factory reset over and over, serial is in settings, brand new phone out of the box today. I added a google account after factory reset, nothing, I gave it Asus account after factory reset, same error.
What can I do? Should I do the firmware/software update?

For anyone reading this, wondering why there isn't a more descriptive error:
Unlocking your bootloader on this model goes against what a lot of us have learnt over the years. The general rule of thumb is never to update before unlocking, as the procedure for unlocking is specific to a certain release, and manufacturers frequently remove the ability to unlock in later releases.
Why they do this is obvious, they don't actually know what people will do with their hardware given the appropriate power to do so.
In the case of this phone, you do have to do the firmware update before the current unlock tool will work, as at the time of writing.
You don't need a Google or Asus account or any other crap.
Hope this helps someone else.

How bricked are you talking?
I answered a similar question in Q&A, the second post. That is if you can only boot into fastboot mode. but it also works if you are stuck in a bootloop or any other software issue.
If you can't even power the phone on, you will need to use a hair dryer or heat gun to remove the back and then disconnect the battery, then plug in a usb cable to see if the device still powers on. if it does unplug it and reconnect the battery. then try powering it on again.
If you unplug the battery and plug in a usb cable and it still does nothing, then it is completely bricked and probably beyond the technical expertise an average person is willing to put in to attempt to fix.

This is the official FunkyHuawei support thread.
FunkyHuawei is a (mostly) paid service which allows you to do the following:
1. Install the latest system software, even before it's released by OTA.
2. Install beta/prerelease system software, without needing to be a beta tester.
3. Recover a bricked phone.
4. Rebranding / Change the region of your phone (China -> Europe, for example, to get Google and so on.)
5. Root your EMUI 8 phone, even with stock recovery (This feature is free)
Except for rooting, all of these features are supported even if you cannot unlock your phone's bootloader.
To find FunkyHuawei, please Google it. Or you can find a link to the service within the following XDA Portal article.
https://www.xda-developers.com/android-oreo-emui-6-huawei-mate-9/
We are pleased to announce FHUnbrickFlashTool -- You can now repair any recent Huawei phone via fastboot, even if you cannot access eRecovery or boot the phone! Even if it doesn't show the Huawei logo, as long as you can get a fastboot connection to your computer, you can recover the phone! Google FHUnbrickFlashTool or check FunkyHuawei's reddit for details.
In cooperation with XDA, FunkyHuawei is offering a free credit to Recognized Developers and Recognized Contributers on XDA.
Please PM me for more details.
We will continue posting in this thread with updates regarding new software versions and releases regarding this device.
We will also be monitoring it so we can help anyone who has issues.
For device-specific information, please see the next post.
P10 Device-Specific Information
The P10 now has a relatively mature community with many methods to do many things.
However, there are still some things only possible with FunkyHuawei, so it would be most useful for:
1. Installing updates on bootloader-locked devices, even if the update is not approved by Huawei for your device.
2. Rebranding bootloader-locked devices, or rebranding to obscure carrier brandings.
3. Restoring bricked devices.
Note that even though the Mate 10 Root tool is designed for the Mate 10, it works perfectly on the P10 running Android O betas.
This tool is FREE, and might be easier than installing TWRP and rooting that way.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How much does FunkyHuawei cost?
A: You need to buy credits on the FunkyHuawei website. The price per credit varies depending on the number of credits you buy. Different operations cost different amounts of credits. However, the Root feature of the Mate 10 tool is free, and as mentioned above, Recognized Developers/Contributors of XDA can ask for a free credit.
Q: My phone is bootloader locked, and FRP locked. My bootloader unlock code dosen't work. It won't boot. eRecovery doesn't work. Can you help?
A: Yes. With the Mate 10 this is now a common situation. Contact FunkyHuawei for help in this situation. We'll need to access your computer remotely and the procedure is a little bit complicated, but the phone can be unbricked.
Q: I can't get my bootloader unlock code/don't want to unlock my bootloader, but I want to change my phone to something other than Chinese. Can you help?
A: Yes. Our new FunkyHuawei Rebrand Tool works on ALL recent Huawei phones, to rebrand them to another region even when the bootloader is locked.
Q: I'm not seeing the latest version listed on FunkyHuawei or elsewhere as an OTA. Why not?
A: Huawei has a very odd and unpredictable way of rolling out OTA updates. You can use FunkyHuawei to install the new version immediately, or can wait for the update to be rolled out. It might be a month or more after release until the update reaches your device from Huawei directly. We have no idea why.
Q: Why isn't FunkyHuawei free?
A: Because many of FunkyHuawei's features cost FunkyHuawei money to provide. Features that don't cost FunkyHuawei money to provide, like rooting the Mate 10 or our TWRP build for Mate 9/Oreo, for example, are generally made available for free. There are also bills to pay, kids to put through school, and so on.
Q: I noticed FunkyHuawei in an XDA Portal article!
A: FunkyHuawei loves XDA, and is cooperating with them as much as possible. Recognized Developers and Contributors on the XDA forums are welcome to claim a free credit from FunkyHuawei as well.
Q: I have a different question.
A: This is what this thread is for! Post away!

Luckilly the P10 community here is mature enough that there is no longer a need for Funky's services. However effective Funky may be, we can save ourselves the 30bucks and do it ourselves

We have added a brand new Android O build for the Chinese P10.
You will need to rebrand your phone to VTR-AL00 (all/cn) to install it.
Best to use HiSuite to install it -- check out Mate 10 rebranding information to find the correct version of HiSuite and instructions.
We now have Android O for International P10 and P10 Plus.
Check FunkyHuawei reddit for install instructions, or google for "Android O Builds for International P10 and P10 Plus now available! Instructions inside"

Hey all, I'm having a problems to which i've been pulling my hair out and not sure what to do. Essentially, I had my phone rooted, although later decided I wanted to unroot. To unroot I used an app called "simply unroot" however it did not fully unroot my device, just made it worse, my phone does not pass the safety net, however "root checker apps" suggest my phone is not rooted, although some apps recognise my phone as being rooted. My phone bootloader is unlocked, but the OEM toggle in the developer options is not set as enabled, and is NOW greyed out so i cant click it, meaning i do not have access to any fastboot commands and thus cannot flash a recovery.img. Although, believe after having trying to unroot it had automatically disable OEM. I have tried to lock the bootloader in the hopes that OEM toggle would no longer be greyed out, but cannot do this as i dont have access to fastboot commands. Even with TWRP i cannot flash anything just promps me with Error 9. I have tried storing the UPDATE.app within the dload folder, but that doesnt work either. I have no idea how i can recover this device. Fell like i've tried everything. Please help.

Why you pose this question in the "official funkyhuawei support" thread is beyond me....
Only thing that comes to mind is: do you have USB debugging enabled in the developers options? It should be enabled if you want to use ADB or Fastboot.

I recently updated my P10 VTR L29 C432 from nougat to Oreo B360 via oreoupgrade script method as posted in forum but after update my bootloader seems to be locked again i wanted to root my phone via installing TWRP but it's not allowed by fastboot
Any solution or any solution to unlock bootloader or root the phone without losing data !? I have too much files and apps on phone that i won't lose
To unlock bootloader of several Nokia android devices you need to be on Security Patch prior to August 2018 and you need a Unique Unlock Key for your device.
{Mod edit}
If you satisfy the above conditions then here are the steps to unlock bootloader -
1. Reboot to Fastboot/Download Mode
2. Check for your devices using the following command
Code:
fastboot devices
3. Type
Code:
fastboot flash unlock unlock_key.bin
Note - Replace unlock_key.bin file name with full name of your unlock key file.
4. Type
Code:
fastboot oem unlock-go
5. You'll see a bootloader unlock confirmation prompt screen press power button to confirm.
6. Again reboot to Fastboot/Download Mode
7. Follow Step 2 again
8. Follow Step 3 again
9. Type
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
10. Follow Step 5 again
Now you've unlocked your Nokia Device Successfully.

This part is what I don't understand. How is it possible to downgrade a bootloader locked device from android 10 to Oreo without a signed android Oreo image that is accepted by the device?
There are only two options to get your phone downgraded with locked bootloader, first is Nokia Service Center and second is the websites that I've mentioned in the 1st post they'll downgrade your phone and provide you the unlock service.

If the image is signed, it can be flashed. They might have obtained signed firmware image from the employee in service center.

How to unlock bootloader without PC Nokia 6.1 plus
Techmesto released the tutorial to unlock the bootloader for some Nokia phones (including Nokia 6.1 plus) on june 21, 2021. Here is the link https://www.techmesto.com/guide-unlock-bootloader-nokia-android-phones/ (You must have a Windows machine)
I used it to unlock mine. It works
EDIT: It works. The timezone is EST as per my digging. I was able to unlock it for free.
Leaving below comment for historical reasons:
Their unlock works, apparently, 15 times a day, and the timezone is not mentioned. It is obviously an advertisement for their paid service.
From their website:
The OTP is valid for 15 minutes from generation.
Only 15 devices will be supported for unlocking in a day. After this further generation of OTPs will be disabled for the day.
Please contact us in case you have a bulk requirement.
There is no reason to believe they allow even 15 OTPs or even 1. Since they are obviously able to generate them in "bulk", I think it is best to not mention them here. Let them do their advertisement on Nokia forums.

@cubancigar11 You should first try it before dismissing it as advertisement. I used it to unlock my bootloader a few months ago.
Thanks. I was also able to unlock it after many tries. I have edited my comment to reflect this. Unfortunately there "donate" link is broken, otherwise I would have donated $5 which they quote as price.

I have an asus-me302kl tablet. I wanted to install twrp but now it's locked. I installed firmware with rawdate but it has no function. I need help unlocking the bootloader. recovery mode does not turn on either. I am wondering if there is a pat file or some other method to unlock the bootloader. Thanks in advance. I hope I was able to explain myself.

This low-end tablet is heavily outdated ( 7 years old ), means you won't find a TWRP suitable to it.

First of all, thanks for the answer. this tablet is a customer tablet. and it's my fault that it's locked. For this I need to unlock the bootloader. is there no tool to flash the software? I managed to install the .rawdata firmware. and the device has root permission but I couldn't go further. Now I'm waiting like this.
@civan34
My suggestion:
Re-flash tablet's Stock ROM ( is a ZIP-file ) to bring tablet back to its initial state ( what includes flashing the Stock Recovery ).
When that's done you can start to unlock tablet's bootloader by means of Fastboot, if it's not denied by OEM/Carrier.
If tablet's bootloader got successfully unlocked you can try to flash LineageOS v15 ( Android 8 Oreo ) onto tablet.

I picked up 4 of these from an auction. I can't unlock any of them, because the Asus tool, (ME302KL_UnlockTool_Instructions) zip file, no longer works. TWRP is available 3.2, link is below.

I contacted Asus a few times about this Bootloader issue, but today I took a different approach. It appears they Blacklisted the ME302KL from the servers, because it is EOL. I made it clear to them. that I can't access the Asus Cloud or any other Asus tool loaded on the machine and I can't do OTA updates either. I made it clear that I should be able to at a minimum be able to upgrade to 4.4.4 from 4.2.2 after resetting the device. They agreed and are escalating the issue up the food chain.
My hope is they remove it from the blacklist which will fix the "Network Error" message when trying to use the Unlock Tool for the bootloader. I will circle back around, once I hear back from them....

No joy. Asus says they are under contract with AT&T. The ME302KL has been black listed and Asus will not add it back to the unlock tool or provide any support AT ALL!. They keep telling me the unlock tool isn't theirs. But the amount of times Asus's name is used in the EULA, tells me otherwise. I'm waiting to hear back from AT&T on their position on the matter. Stay tuned...
Ok campers, i have a work around for the ME302KL AT&T bootloader issue. I just verified AT&T can unlock the devices, they just verified 3 devices for me. Only catch, you have to have an account with them.
So, If you like people actually being able to hear you on a call, you probably have a different service, like i do. Based on the call, there are really only 2 options. Option 1, Harassment. Someone you know, has them as their provider. A family member, a friend maybe your priest. So, my suggestion is to harass them into they adding the device, under their plan. They only need to do it long enough, for you to get it upgraded. Once AT&T unlocks it, upgrade the OS, add TWRP and create a custom recovery that never goes back to KitKat. then, have them cancel it off their account. At the most, you're looking at $25 for the month, if anything at all.
Option 2 - Go Prepaid for a couple of months. This one is tricky based on the T&C's on their website. You will need to create a new account, $30 for 5 5gb a month. No contract and what you don't use, rolls over to the next month. Make sure to read their T&C's ased on new prepaid accounts with BYOD. I told the agent I wanted to Only use broadband service, no phone for when im working in the field, until i'm still under contract with Verizon. She pitched services, i dodged and evaded. She told me a month to month prepaid plan was doable, to get it unlocked. They would be able to unlock it for free and so i could upgrade the OS. So, it's not too terrible, just annoying to jump through so many hoops. The first option, would be the easiest.
These are just suggestions. I take no responsibility if you brick the device once it's unlocked. It is AT&T and the device may be commiting suicide in lieu of being on their Network. :0)
I sent the message to AT&T with imei of my ME302KL but the answer is been "the manufacturer doesn't have an unlock code for this device".
Help me to unlock my device.
Wonder if anyone knows how to unlock the bootloader and root the Oppo Find X3 (not Pro)? This is the device that sits just below the Pro-Model - essentially same hardware with a slightly less capable CPU (Snapdragon 870 instead of 888). The device runs a version of ColorOs intended for the Chinese market only (at this stage). Easy to enable developer options, allow OEM unlocking and enable USB debugging. But so far I have not found a way to access fastboot mode and proceed to unlock the bootloader. Any ideas?
Waited 4 yrs to upgrade from a OnePlus5 and these Chinese system apps are such a downer. Glad to see you two on to the right questions.

I'm facing the same issue. Have activated USB debugging on my X3 Pro, but when I shut down and restart whilst also holding volume up button, it doesn't go in to fast boot. Is there a way of activating fast boot by plugging phone into computer?

The steps to enable developer mode? Go to About Phone, there you will see a screen with lots of info about the phone, including the OS. Tap on *Baseband & kernel", then you see three infos. There you click multiple times on "Build number", which will unlock developer mode. This you then find under "Additional settings" in the main settings. Then you can enable "OEM unlock" (which doesn't help unless you can access the bootloader and actually unlock it...) and "USB debugging". I'll survive without root for now, hoping some clever XDA devs will figure this device out eventually. It's an amazing phone, and I hope they will release a true international version of the firmware at some point, so I won't see the Chinese core-apps anymore...
Global phones have purposely has the fastboot command blocked, so even if there was a twrp there is no way to flash it, no matter what you do, holding volume down on boot, commands or any other method won't work. Chinese models I believe can have it done but need to download an app, then apply to have permission to unlock.

My phone IS a Chinese model; the regular FX3 (non-pro). With Oppo (cr)App Store and all sorts of China-centric rubbish. What is the name of the app that might let me access the bootloader?

Deeptest. Apk or in depth test.apk Google them a new version 1.1 was released three days ago but no info on what model phone it is for
Thanks for the tip. Among other things, I came across this:
OPPO Community
Talk, share, and learn everything about the beautiful possibilities of technology together with other OPPO fans.
community.coloros.com
Sounds like this is for devs only, and not yet for the FX3. So for now, I'll keep my hands off it - don't think I'm at the required skill level yet. But still - a good tip, and it gives me some hope that root access might be possible in the near future.
I have what I'm pretty sure is the global variant and I am able to enter fastbootd
Oh wow. Great! May I ask you to please share how you manged to pull that off? And once you accessed fastboot, did you e.g. manage to root the device? Please, also here, a "how" would be preferred over a "yes"?
Or is there a way to root the phone with apps like KingoRoot etc?
I'm not pro in this area, but i find this:

Sorry, but you're ****ing out of luck. Nokia ****ing dead-locked their phones, and there's no way to unlock them. Next time, go buy another phone from another OEM instead of this ****ing one.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/how-do-i-unlock-the-bootloader-for-nokia-x10.4323507/ I've also asked a similar question to yours before, and...People told me that there's no ways to unlock those new Nokia phones' bootloaders anymore. You can try contacting their customer support, but I don't think it will work. I contacted them before so I can unlock my Nokia X10's bootloader, but they just kept dodging my question and sent some automated answers instead

I hope so, past attempts has proven unsuccessful, as said before. I hope that I will manage to talk them into unlocking my bootloader though. I wish I am good at social engineering or something similar to that, lol

How did your attempt go? Was you able to talk them into unlocking the bootloader, or did they use excuses like "security" and "stability" again?

Wow i didn't think this thread is gonna get revived in a year.
Well i did contact Hdm but exactly like you staded they used security as an excuse so i wasn't able to unlock the bootloader.
My phone still works but when it breaks i will switch over to smasung because bootloader unlock there is very easy.

well, here's some news for hoping: Hikari_Calyx acquired a few prototype units of HMD/Nokia phones (some of which look suspiciously similar to the Nokia X10/20), and with cases like this (he extracted a prototype ABL image for bootloader unlocking), one can hope that the Nokia X10/20 will be unlocked in the same way as the XR20 (minus the step of acquiring full access to tri-color company's Device Kit, of course, **** that kit)
