Unable to unlock bootloader?

I keep getting this. I am pretty sure my adb drivers are properly installed since fastboot detects it just fine, and I even got USB debugging enabled and the RSA fingerprint thing checked out.

When I type in fastboot oem unlock it just shows finished and nothing happens on my device. However I am still able to use fastboot oem device-info and fastboot reboot to reboot into OS no issues. Never had an issue unlocking bootloaders in my entire life. What now? Windows 10 issue? Did I miss something?

It's done. Mine did the same thing. No response from the phone at all but it had in fact done the unlock.

LOL yeah turns out my phone was already bootloader unlocked as I bought it used... Just did a bit more googling and found out another dude having the same problem on his OPO, turns out it was unlocked as well. Got TWRP and SuperSU up and running now. :good:

My problem is a little diferent, using W/ 64 and the generic android USB drivers
- adb devices don't get a response
- fastboot commands run without a problem
I still managed to unlock bootloader!

Help me , Im stuck on the boot ( cant access the recovery , just a white usb logo)

Guys, my zen5 stucking now, last night i just delete the /system chrome, and remove it with the new one app from /data (this is Link2sd stuff)
and i intergrate to system app (that chrome).
at the morning, i was trying to open my chrome, but error, so i restart my phone.
and... the problem is appear..
my screen is stuck (until right now) on the boot
i tried to re-flash with same ROM (OTA) by ADB , but not succeeded because i forgot to turn on my USB Debugging.
i tried to access Recovery mode, but there's only a dead android with a red triangle. (sometimes changing to USB White logo)
oh ya, the one thing that i can access is Fastboot only
What can I do ?

see the above article,it might help you...
i dont think that usb debugging will create any problem coz in the above tutorial we are using fastboot commands rather than adb commands..
try it and reply..

well.. that's all my assumed... i thought i could use the lolli's version...
why im use boot.img ? because there's no fastboot.img when i entered that one.. just "error" , so I (again) assumed that "ohh maybe you missed type there"
my phone now unable to access the Power + Vol UP it will automatically booting screen.. , just the Power + Vol Down. but its image is a dead android with a triangle sign..
i already read that

i told you that earlier......" there is a reason why i used kitkat" ,.,,,,,thats coz lollipop has droidboot.img and kitkat has fastboot.img.
if u had used kitkat on extracting it will be having fastboot.img
well unfortunately ,ur phone is hard bricked,the zentalk website i gave you is the only way...other than that you can send a message to dgadhela(see cm13 for zf5),,he is developer of the cm13 rom and some days back i read one of his post where he told how to solve no bootloader issue,i'm unable to find that post.....

I have been problem with GSM signal and this problem isn't solved. I want return back this phone to Asus while i have warranty.
Thank you for help

You should lock bootlaoder using unoffical unlock method.

Simply flash raw fw..thats it..
Everything will become factory default including the bootloader locked....

Then use the xfstk method, and after finished, sideload the firmware you want.

"fastboot" is part of the phone.
The only thing that matters is if it is unlocked or locked.
As people said, all you need is a RAW firmware and flash it.
It's very simple.
Here it is a RAW Firmware and use this tool to restore it.
Once you do that, you're good to send your phone to Asus.

Hi.
Your phone is now back to original state.
As you can see, sometimes it appears
Code:
(bootloader) secure device
There's no why to worry about "FAILED" on erase spare.
And, you can't remove droidboot, it's part of the phone.
Your phone is now ready to be sent to Asus.
Thanks.

As I said, droidboot is part of your phone, you can't simply remove it.
Your phone comes with that when you buy it.
What RMA checks is if it is unlocked or locked, and as you restored the RAW file, it is locked, which is the original state.
You can send your phone to ASUS without any worries.

Nokia X6 Stuck in Download Mode

Hello, hope you can help.
I have a Nokia X6 (TA 1099) that somehow got stuck in Download Mode (see attached pictures)
I have tried the Vol Down plus Power to exit Download Mode, also tried various other combinations, but no luck.
When I plug the phone into USB it does show up as Fastboot Device and I can use the fastboot cmd with reboot to make it restart, but it stays in Download Mode.
I tried installing the OST LA tool and it made the phone display some more details on screen (see attached picture), however it wouldn't get as far as to attempt loading a new image. (says software tool needs update)
Thanks,
Jake

Very nice guide, thanks.
Unfortunately I get an error message saying: FAILED (remote: 'Flashing is not allowed in Lock State')
Then I tried the fastboot flashing unlock and unlock_critical but that just resulted in error message: FAILED (remote: 'Flashing Unlock is not allowed')
However after trying a fastboot --set-active=b and rebooting it made the phone come back from the Download Mode brick telling me something is corrupted and asking to restore to factory. I chose to restore to factory and it appears the phone is now unbricked and I just need to install everything again.
Thanks for your helpful suggestions.

Nah, it's my wife's phone, I'm not sure how she managed to get it stuck in Download Mode, but I suspect maybe the case she was using caused the buttons to get stuck or something.
It was --set-active=b I used.

I had the same issue with my 6.1 plus (TA 1116) when it suddenly showed me the screen asking for a factory wipe & that my data was corrupt. The phone entered download mode and I let the battery discharge overnight. Today after following the steps Jake took, the phone got out of download mode and I did a factory reset, the phone is working ok now.
Thanks @ Jake!

POCO M3 System has been Destroyed [Lock State]

How u doing?
So, my Poco M3 was working perfectly until yesterday when I said YES to system update notification for MIUI 12.5 (such a dumb decision), now the system is dead...
I did see a lot of videos and I've already read some posts here, I tried to replicate all common solutions to resolve this problem but nothing works for me, because my bootloader is lock and i can't flash any rom in the locked state. I checked this methods to restore the system:
1 - I Downloaded the Mi flash latest version and the ADB drivers, but doesn't work because my phone is iin Lock State...
"Using Mi Flash this happen:
[09:27:04 57a4c2410720]:info1:$fastboot -s devicename erase boot ||
[09:27:04 57a4c2410720]:info2:Erasing 'boot' FAILED (remote: 'Erase is not allowed in Lock State')
[09:27:04 57a4c2410720]:info2:fastboot: error: Command failed
[09:27:04 57a4c2410720]:info1:"Erase boot error"
[09:27:04 57a4c2410720]:begin FlashDone
[09:27:04 57a4c2410720]:error:Erasing 'boot' FAILED (remote: 'Erase is not allowed in Lock State')"
2 - So i tried to use Mi Flash Unlock, it didn't work and was showing "add your account in miui's settings developer options mi unlock status". the problem is that it all requires some prerequisite settings done already in the device (Mobile phone) when the only thing I can do it's acess fastboot screen. (Phone has never been unlocked before)

3 - I found another Mi app = Mi Flash Pro, same thing, it contais Fastboot to EDL Tool, but is no longer available by xiaomi.
4 - I also tried to install OrangeFox recovery and TWRP by CLI but it also failed cause is not allowed in lock state....
So, what can i do to save my phone when it's off and i cant acess anything right now?
(I even tried opening it and removing the battery)
Anyone can help me, pls !?
