[Q] Official Unlock proceedure

Hi all just bought a new Z1 on Virgin/T mobile and asked Virgin for the unlock code which they charge £15:32p for.
My question is they told me it would be sent in the post and I take it is some type of code they send me but how or what is the sequence to enter the code to make my Z1 unlocked to all networks.

All you need to do is insert a working SIM card from another provider, power up the device and follow the instructions. Really easy.

Many thanks for the quick reply and can't understand why they have to send the code via post rather than just telling me over the telephone after my payment was cleared and must only be for security reasons.

Be careful when you enter the code, you only have 3 chances to enter the correct code before the phone becomes permanently locked.

I sent one email (with everything, Model / SN IMEI1 / IMEI2 / Product ID ) to [email protected]
And I received today on acknowledge with the number 7002:
"Your request (7002) has been received and is being reviewed by our support staff."
I hope the acttual request is number 7001
I think, more we ask, more the support must give an answer So, you must do it ...

Put pressure ?
I say Yes...
Sell Europe is good ...
But make sure the support is much better.
Who better than users, are able to impose a product?

@LePocketPc, I received answer from support - but not an unlock code

"Your request (XXXX) has been received and is being reviewed by our support staff."

According telephonic statement (vmall) there is the code exclusively on this address "[email protected]".
vmall support can not help in this regard.

I've emailed for my PLK-L01 and I've got the following answer :
Dear Customer,
Thank you for contacting Huawei device.
Sorry that there have no bootloader unlock code for PLK-L01 items.
By default , you can do fastboot downloading for some images directly without Unlocking bootloader..
We suggest you'd better not root your device which would avoid the warranty and maybe cause it freeze.
Once again thank you for contacting Huawei device.
Best Regards.

So, I've tried to flash TWRP recovery without the unlock procedure.
Unfortunately, after running the "adb reboot bootloader" command, I've got a white screen with "PHONE Locked" written on it.
No need to say, that therefore, I can't fastboot download...

Try sending request to their China email: http://consumer.huawei.com/cn/contact-us/index.htm

But what CAN be fastbooted? Thats a nonsense anwer from the support :thumbdown:

They answered back quickly with my unlock code ! :good:
We'll try it when back to home.

Any proof you received the unlock code and therefore can unlock your bootloader? Do you have the email adress which you mailed your request to? Thank you so much!

I used the email address indicated on their website where you normally get the unlock code :

The answer :

I have successfully unlocked PLK-L01 using that tutorial.
I then successfully bootlooped it into TWRP.
And there it will remain until I can get hold of an original ROM, I suspect

I had the same issue.
I solved this by doing this :
- Just after the small phone vibration at start of reboot, press and hold the volume down key.
- You should enter now into into bootloader (and not recovery).
- Download the archive here: http://d-h.st/R6lD
(it's from this tutorial http://www.gizdev.com/rooting-huawei-honor-7-unlockbootloader-root-install-twrp-recovery/#)
- Flash the recovery stock rom provided in this archive (via "fastboot flash recovery <stock_rom>" command).
- Reboot. Normally, you should have boot on stock recovery now.
- Press reboot and you're back in your main system !
Hope it helps.

I was able to unlock the phone with the stock recovery and then I flashed again TWRP the phone starts, but if I try to go into recovery mode the phone goes into bootloop and I have to restart back...how did u root the phone?

Finally Bootloader UNLOCKED (RN3Pro)

Hey guys, almost after 2 weeks of getting approval of unlocking bootloader, finally i was successfull today morning. Here's the steps i did:
Enable Find device option in mi account on your phone first and your phone must be connected to internet
1.Go to i.mi.com in pc/laptop
2.sign-in with your phone number registered to Mi and password
3.Again there will be sign in option, do it as above, it will send otp to your registered mobile number
4.input that and click on connected and check whether device is showing online. leave it as it is.
5.Now in phone, enable usb debugging and oem unlock from developer options and poweroff
6.hold volume down+power, it will boot in fastboot mode.
7.Now open MiFlashtool (run as administrator) and login using mobile number and password
8.Now connect your phone to pc/laptop, the unlock option will be active now.
9.Click unlock, that's it! no more 50% error
Hope this works for all who are still unable to unlock bootloader
BTW, i was on MIUI 8 Global stable rom while unlocking!

How long did it take to get approval? I just applied yesterday.

Aren't there multiple guides on same topic already?

I advise you to do not making any changes on your devices and mi account. so the device information would be the same as on their database.

10 days and still waiting. I'm no longer attracted to buying Chinese devices.

Bootloader Unlock Code help needed.

Can a kind heart please help me get my bootloader code? I tried the unlock site but couldn't get through (Error 404 Page not found).
Contacted the Huawei Support Team but they said their server for boot loader is under maintenance and will be up again next month.

You can try to send an email to huawei and thell them that you want your code.
But I ask them to give mine and they never respond.
I ended up paying 4 euro to DC unlocker and get my code.

Did you sign up already? Just enter your login details and it shall take you there. I used Google Chrome on my PC to view this site.
If you still can't access the page then PM me your phone's details and I'll do it for you.
