Use hi care app to check the warranty status.

You can boot into fastboot & rescue mode (turn it off, press power + vol - button (i think)) and at the bottom of the screen it should say either:
Unlocked
or
Locked

[Q] Unlock bootloader without Power button

Does anyone know a way I can unlock the bootloader or unroot the phone without using the power button?
I can get into android recovery but cant select any of the options because I have no power button.
I managed to get into fastboot with the Toolkit and I was trying to get my phone back to stock to warranty it. I wasn't thinking and re-locked the bootloader before unrooting the phone. Now I can't "undo" that because of the phone prompts to choose yes or no when unlocking the bootloader.
I am looking for a way to unroot a phone with a locked bootloader or a way to unlock the bootloader while bypassing the yes/no screen.
I found a solution but it was for the galaxy nexus using a hex editor and I wasn't going to mess with that unless it was specifically for the nexus 4.
Any help is appreciated.

ok mate sry i was away for a while so
you have VKY-L29C185
you problem is you have frp on + boot loader locked right ? can you take a picture of your fastboot screen (turn off phone then plug to pc while holding vol down )
did you try to go into twrp (try power + vol up until you see huawei logo then keep pressing vol up button)
if that did not put your phone into twrp try power + vol up until you see Huawei logo then release power button and keep pressing vol up several times
does the picture of your phone is now unlocked and can not be trusted is there or it is gone ?
try to answer my questions and if no twrp + no unlocked bootloader
we may try DNS method with erecovery

Super Bricked!!! Huawei P9 lite VNS-L31. Locked bootloader, no manufacturing mode...

Hi, I have a problem with my Huawei P9 lite VNS-L31. The phone is in brick !!! and does not pass the boot logo (huawei).
Locked the bootloader, I can not use the method of the three buttons (to install rom), I can not enter recovery, I can not put the manufacturing mode, the battery is at zero and I can not charge it when plugging the charger (I turn it off by disconnecting battery and I connect the battery again and when I put the charger the phone starts and is left with the huawei logo) ... the only thing I can do is put the fastbot mode but what if I can't do anything with the bootloader locked?
The Dc-unlock doesn't work for me since I can't put the manufacturing mode ... can it get worse?
Any solution? Can you get the bootloader unlock code in some way?
I do not know if brick will have a solution ... I do not give up!
I listen to proposals ... greetings!

when I press the three buttons Vol + and Vol- together with the button on ... it does nothing! Just turn it off and on again with the Huawei logo and it does not come out there ... no matter how long you have pressed the Vol + and Vol- buttons at the same time, it does not pass the Huawei logo

damn, ok, check these items:
to begin with, you have unlock code?
in fastboot mode, FRP is unlocked?
how long does huawei logo shows?
try "fastboot oem lock" command in fastboot mode.
try "fastboot reboot recovery" command in fastboot mode.
remove sdcard and sim card.
don't press power button longer than 10 seconds.

1- No, I don't have bootloader unlock code.
2- In fastboot mode it appears to unlock FRP and unlock bootloader ... but when trying commands from fastboot mode I get an error: FAILED (remote: command not allowed). I found the phone with the fastboot devices command. The mobile shows on the fastboot screen that Phone unlocked but I sincerely believe (by not admitting any code for fastboot) that the bootloader is locked.
3- The Huawei logo lasts forever ... until it has finished with the battery capacity. And I can not charge the battery because whenever I put the USB charger the phone is fixed and stays in the Huawei logo for centuries and centuries.
4- I haven't tried it ... I will. But I don't know to what extent it is important since I think the bootloader is locked even if it shows on the screen Phone unlocked.
5- In fastboot mode, it launched the "fastboot restart recovery" command but does not restart in recovery mode, it restarts but shows the Huawei logo. Tried the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (TWRP)" but it does not flash and throws the FAILED error (remote: command not allowed)
6- All the commands and tests I do without SD card and without SIM card
7- Tried by pressing the power button 10 seconds (9 seconds, 15 seconds, 30 seconds, 5 seconds .... etc) There is no way always fix showing the Huawei logo and it does not leave there. Keep in mind that the battery is at 0% and all these tests I have to do with the USB charger connected because if it is not like that or start the Huawei logo (battery 0%)
Thank you for your interest. But I'm still trying to find a solution.
PD: what do you know about DC-Phoenix? Would you recommend using it? or it would be the last option

yes. it is final option.
btw, did you flashed oeminfo before?
RyotaGamer said:

No, no, nooooo ... it's not unlocked. Apparently it is unlocked (it shows it like this) but when entering the codes by fastboot it does not admit them and the error that I told you comes out
you can't boot recovery while charging.
While charging I can't do anything. No recovery, no flash (3 buttons)., No boot ... ONLY fastboot
yes. it is final option.
Ok, I guessed it ... and I don't rule it out given the case I'm in.

3- VNS-L31C432B371-FULL, Region - Europe, State - Official, Type EMUI 5.0 Android 7- Full Firmware

That is because you re-lock it the same way you unlock it. Be sure to flash the latest stock ROM via Odin before re-locking it. Then, with the tablet off, and the USB cable plugged into the PC only, while holding both vol up and down and plug the cable into the tablet.. When the screen appears, release both buttons and then long press the vol up and you'll get the screen to re-lock.

How to unlock and root s10 Plus

The s10 Plus is a very good phone but I really can't help with rooting this phone. I had one and it was also a T mobile and when I bought it was already unlocked.

On my s10 unlocking Bootloader was the following. 1. Enable OEM Unlock as usual
2. Go to Download mode. By holding power and vol down
Volume Up To finalize unlock and wipe phone data
3. Go to developer settings again and tap OEM Unlock again for it to grey out and unlock the bootloader indefinetly
