Status of Secure Boot Keys for the TPT - Thinkpad Tablet General

Hi!
Some years have passed and also the petition thread is closed... Does anyone know what the status is about the SBK for nvflash? Is it still not released?
Today I pulled my TPT out of my drawer and I'm in the unlucky position that my bootloader is locked...
Would it be possible the reflash the bootloader in hardware? e.g. if the flash is a seperate chip, one could try to flash a bootloader of a device that does not have the lock in place...

Damaged Huawei Y3 II with lock bootloader

I have Damaged Huawei Y3 II with lock bootloader (no turn on - only recovery and fastboot). I tried to flash stock rom, but nowhere I could find him. I wrote to Huawei, they wrote back that at this time there is no such anywhere. I tried to unlock the bootloader using fastboot, but do not have a code that enables and I can not get it because the phone does not turn on, previously had no developer options. The only thing I know is the phone's IMEI number, serial number and a detailed model (Lua-L21) and the name of the software Lua-L21C576B105. I tried to generate the id of the product in HuaweiIdGenerator, but there is no such model, and I only need this to unlock the bootloader. Is anyone able to help me? Maybe someone can generate my ID od my Huawei phone? Thanks for the answers.

Hi What kind of phone

How do i know if the bootloader is unlocked?

i just recently bought this phone off from a friend's family member , it had oreo beta 2 installed and i updated it to orea beta 3. ive seen posts that says if u have oreo beta it means u have the bootloader unlock. just wanna double confirm
If it's unlocked you'll get a message telling you so whenever you boot the phone.
If you updated it to the Oreo Beta 3 OTA then your bootloader is locked. OTA updates won't work otherwise

That's not exactly accurate.
An unlocked bootloader does not prevent an OTA. If you are rooted the OTA won't work.
An unlocked bootloader has nothing to do with it.
Also, I havent tested with this device but usually with other phones
fastboot oem device-info
Tells if the device is unlocked.
Otherwise you could try the command
fastboot flashing unlock
If the phone prompts you with a confirmation if you really want to unlock the bootloader, then I am guessing it isn't.
Just boot to the bootloader to check.
With the device of hold down the power and volume down together.
Also on a reboot if the screen says it's not secure then it also means it's unlocked

Impossible to unlock the bootloader

Hello
I sent my device for warranty because I have ghost touches. I received my phone and they brought it back without any change, I'm still facing ghost touches. BTW thats not the problem.
Previously I unlocked the bootloader and rooted my device, before to send the device for warranty I locked the bootloader again and sent it like it was new.
Now I'm trying to unlock the bootloader but it is impossible to do. When I try to get the fastboot oem unlock data, I put the code on the motorola website and the answer is "Your devices does not qualify for bootloader unlocking".
I tried too to put the old code that Motorola sent me to my email, I put the commands on adb window but also I get an error message "Code validation failure with status 7".
If someone have faced this issue would be great to know how to solve it.
Thanks.

Redmi note 7 bricked with global rom

Hi, I was wondering if there is any solution to recover my phone, what happens is that a few days ago I was flashing my phone with my flash, but I forgot select the option that only flash everything without blocking the bootloader, instead of this, my phone got blocked and won't let me access because it marks "this miui version cannot be installed on this device", my pc detects the fastboot mode but it doesn't let me flash roms, I tried the latest Chinese version but it doesn't work.
My phone came with the bootloader unlocked and the global rom when I bought it.
Any help is appreciated, thanks.
Maybe try this tool : https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-7/how-to/tool-xiaomi-pc-tools-t4059275
Just unlock the bootloader again with same Mi account. Then continue using this OS.
The area code of the ROM must same to the bootloader area code, or the phone will refuse to boot when the bootloader in Lock State. Installing and using a ROM with different area code need an unlocked bootloader.

(Help) EDL Test Points needed or a solution on G6+

So, basically I will make this short as possible
Due to some problems I had to sell my G6 Plus (Brazilian -8 model) but it was on a custom rom, and did the most dumb thing that I could do: Reflashing pure stock and locking it, I've used the LMSA tool then relocked in Fastboot, the thing is some files were corrupt and when locked, it doesn't boot up anymore, as i still had hope for it, I tried to LSMA again, but it doesnt recognize anymore, as the lock flag is now "Flashing_Locked", flashing manually via Fastboot gives a error related to the lock flag (also LSMA resets the device, so using my unlock key asks to enable OEM Unlock at settings, a impossible thing when OS is broken) , then searched for some solutions, first it was booting a Boot.img file from the last stock, which was the flashed one, it bootloops, then tried something on the recovery that works, but is the stock one and pretty limited, so the logical thing to do is flashing a OTA file, but only works for old versions that requires one version before the target one, so its a no go. The last thing i tried to do is booting TWRP, but it gets stuck on a red warning that indicates that system is corrupt. Then the last hope was EDL Mode, and thats the point where i want to go, i've bought a EDL Cable that's basically a green and black wire thing used on most Qualcomm based Redmi/Xiaomi devices, but it automatically boots to fastboot, so I need help to get EDL Test Points for this device, im with access to the board, i just need the right Pads to short-circuit it and blankflash it, so i can finally get it to work like normal again.
Schematics (for people who understands): https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=4349826312261726244
Any help is important, I'm sorry for some typos, english isnt my main language considering i didnt use translate
and please don't come with instructions like "have you tried LSMA?, try booting up the device and select oem unlock" because its clear that it doesnt work.
