Is there any way to calculate the bootloader unlock code?
Try connect the Huawei site with browser in safe mode or a other browser.
You can unlock with https://www.dc-unlocker.com/ its a pay service.

How do you get an unlock code? Site seems broken due to the EMUI 5 landing page.
Second that.
Huawei's site works now. https://emui.huawei.com/en/plugin/unlock/index
Tap About tablet 10 times
Enable USB debugging and OEM Unlock in developer options
Install minimal ADB and fastboot
Get an unlock code from that page
From a command prompt type:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Then from the command prompt type:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock INSERTYOURUNLOCKCODEHERE
Ok, I'm trying to use the link above to unlock my tablet. I've updated to EMUI 5.0. When I go to the unlock site, the first question is about which version of EMUI you have. If you put in "Before EMUI 5.0", you can choose either "Smartphone" or "Tablet". If you put in "Since EMUI 5.0", the only choice is "Smartphone". So, either answer doesn't seem to be correct. Does anybody know which option I should use?
I have the same problem. Maybe we should contact the support? If i fill the form, there is an error message, that the informations are not correct. I have tested different methods, for example switching to the chinese Site, three different browsers, other countrys, but it didn't worked. Could it be that the wifi Version is not supported at the moment, because of bricks-danger? Other users in my country have created manuals that seems to work but if i try it, i can't receive the bootloader code. That's the first step to root the device and we are failing here. ^^
https://emui.huawei.com/en/plugin/unlock/index no longer works (it leads to a 404 error). Do you know if there is a new url for obtaining an unlock code?
I wonder the same. I get a404 error
Hello Guys,
unfortunately my PC broken down.
I would like to unlock my bootloader and i allready got myself a unlock code from the Huawei website.
Now, is there any way to unlock the bootloader without a pc?

At least up to my knowledge
Hello all,
I'm in possession of a Huawei P8 Lite of which the owner lost the passphrase. The question is whether the photos on the device can still be recoved. The bootloader of the device is currently locked. Debug mode is not enabled (nor is my computer authorized).
I was hoping that it would be possible to unlock the bootloader (which supposedly does not trigger a factory reset on this model?) - and then install a custom recovery from where I could backup the pictures. In order to unlock the bootloader, I would need IMEI-1 + IMEI-2 and the S/N. I was able to obtain one of the IMEIs by typing *#06# on the emergency call screen. Is there a way to obtain the other codes somehow (perhaps via fastboot)? Once I obtain the necessary information, my assumption is that I would be able to get an unlock code from Huawei after which I can unlock from fastboot. (Or does OEM unlock still need to be enabled from the developer options in Android?)
Edit: seems like the S/N is shown when connecting in fastboot mode and listing "fastboot devices".
Edit2: seems like obtaining the IMEI through the emergency call functionaltiy combined with the S/N is enough: I modified the "Product ID Generator" tool to include the "ALE-L21" model, and now it generates valid Product IDs that can be used on the Huawei website to obtain an unlock code.
Alternatively, I've noticed that there's an "emergency data backup" mode on this model, which I accidentally entered. I was hoping anyone knows more about this mode (note that this is different from the fastboot & rescue mode). I got booted into this mode because somehow the ext4 partition failed to mount during one of the many times I rebooted the phone. This mode also allowed me ADB access - however, this was a rescue OS which did not actually contain the user data. I would like to attempt to boot into this mode again, gain root access via a kernel exploit, and either read out the unlock code from /dev/block/mmcblk0p** or directly copy the media onto an SD card. Does anyone know how to "trigger" booting into this mode? The kernel code for the p8 lite seems to have a flag "CONFIG_FEATURE_HUAWEI_EMERGENCY_DATA" which enables this feature.
Pointers welcome
Note, I'm not desperate to recover the data - but this has become more of a "challenge" I'd like to solve.
Edit: I was able to unlock the bootloader with details obtained from the device. Unlocking the device did not initiate a wipe. Now it comes down to installing a recovery image and pulling the data

Now simply install twrp, connect to PC and you will be able to see all the files in Explorer

With twrp you can delete lockscreen specific files to remove lock

If you think about this, you can see how easy it is to unlock a phone (also for bad purposes...)
Agreed, I'm surprised that Huawei didn't force a device wipe before allowing OEM unlock. Especially because you can obtain all the details you need from the phone to obtain an unlock code on the Huawei website.
I indeed ended up installing TWRP and remove the password.key file to remove the lock
A friend of mine find a honor 8s model KSA-LX9 with firmware 9.10.260 (C431E5R1P4) and the phone its locked.
I try to pass the frp lock with some methods but its not working.
There is a tool or a method I can use to unlock it?
There is no way to unlock it again, ASUS device unlock error
Probably yes. The Asus official unlock tool no longer works.
