unlock code via HonorTuner

I've learnt about veeeery easy way to obtain an unlock code without need to contact Huawei.
1. First of all you have to be rooted (via Kingroot or 360 root). Kingroot worked well for me.
2. You have to install HonorTuner (attached).
3. Launch HonorTuner, go to Hardware Info and check out numbers in WVLOCK. This is your unlock code!
People say it works. As for me I didn't unlock my bootloader yet, so I can't confirm. It would be nice if anyone with unlocked bootloader with unlock code from Huawei could check and say whether WVLOCK and Huawei unlock code are the same.

I don't understand the point of this! If this tool is only going to show the unlock code of that phone on which it is installed, how is it useful to others? Let's just say that my phone is rooted and I install this tool HonorTuner on my phone and I tell you that yes, the unlock code that it shows (for my phone) is the same as the one that I got from Huawei, how would it help to get the unlock code of YOUR device?

Unlocking bootloader is normally the first step before rooting so is there any point to this?
Or can you properly root it without unlocking the bootloader?
I personally wouldn't want my phone rooted without a custom recovery to back it up before changes so you should still unlock the bootloader first.

This is for people that want to unlock their bootloader but don't want to spend days and days waiting for huawei to send their unlock codes. Just root with kingroot, and install the app.
PD: I also confirm it works

Thanks man, this saved my life and my h*as !!!
My Mate 7 was stack in bootloop at Huawei logo, due to a wrond (bul****) procedure I fount and followed on the web.
Recovery was lost and bootloader was FAULTY unlocked (it really was still locked)
I rooted the phone, installed your APK and then obtained the BL unlock code.
Then everithing was easy and the Mate returned alive.
Therefore thanks for your suggestion and to have saved my Mate 7 life !!!
Cheres !!!

Some Huawei ROMs have the tendency to re-lock the bootloader after a while, has happened to mine a few times already.

Is my P9 Lite really bricked ?

Hi everyone, first message here, and not for the best..
Here's the story.
Yesterday evening, I tried to install Xposed Framework, but I was stuck in a boot loop (even when I tried to uninstall it), so I "dirty" flashed a Nougat build on my device. Phone was back alive, despite a bug from the mobile data.
Today, I had to restart my phone because of this issue, but now, my phone is somehow bricked. Bootloader is relocked (I dont know how the **** it happened), so I can't do anything, as the phone is stuck on a bootloop, and I don't have TWRP anymore. I tried fastboot, but nothing is working on it. Even VNS Toolkit is no use. I tried a force update with the UPDATE.APP, but I'm still in a bootloop.
So, tl;dr, phone bricked, bootloader locked, no recovery, and no code to unlock my bootloader.
Please XDA people, help me !!

You should try to get your unlock code and unlock your bootloader again, you can find the informations of the phone on the original box.
DO NOT TRY TO INSTALL XPOSED ON NOUGAT, there is still no Xposed version for nougat.

It was Xposed for MM, so after my fail, I decided to update to N.
On the box, I have IMEI1 and IMEI2, and the SN. But I don't have the "PIN" verification code (you can only get it via HMI code..) So I think I'll never be able to unlock my BL :/

I had the same issue lost my bootloader unlock code but there is another way to get bootloader unlock code: DC unlocker
Just follow instructions on there site for p9 lite
On the tool set the manufacturer to "huawei phones" not modems. I made that mistake too first
You need to buy 4 credits to unlock = 4 euros so the tool is not free
Good luck

Email huawei to get your unlock code. It's free!
Just send an email to them

Ok bro you want a lolly now? It's a sillicon lotery you were lucky thats all
I dont earn anything with this btw just helping for alternatives bcause some people cant afford waiting for huawei mail if there phone is bricked

Hi everyone, quick update.
I tried to get my BL unlock code from Huawei, but they wanted my Product ID (how nice of them..)
DC-Unlocker is no use for me, as I only could boot into fastboot.
My service provider helped me a lot, and told me to wipe data/factory reset via the Vol+/Power button method. Somehow, it kinda worked, because now the phone is booting, I have the configuration running, selecting language, region, Wifi, but after Wifi+ option, I have the "Checking Info" window, but it crash, and goes back to Wifi+ config.
So now, I'm stuck here...
UPDATE 2:
I managed to get my BL unlock code !!
But now, fastboot is not letting me unlock it (fastboot: command not allowed.) I'm desperate !! Any reasons why ?
UP3:
Phone is FRP Locked, I'm pretty sure I can't go further because of this

Fastboot wont work bcause you havent enabled usb debugging mode and you cant enable bcause you cant boot in the rom
Have you tried the 336 nougat update.app?

If you cant Bind Mi account with 86012 error and stuck at 99% in unlock tool

Hey, guys, i figured a workaround on how to unlock Bootloader if stuck with 86012 error and can't bind account.
Follow the instructions,
1) First apply for unlocking permissions from http://en.miui.com/unlock/ . U will receive a sms after a day or two.
2) Now goto developer mode and enable bootloader unlock and check if u can bind mi account. If not, then do this
3) Download older version of Mi unlock tool here
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B611uyXmi12kRjU4VHpwaWF0UHc/view?usp=sharing
4) Mi Pc Suite and Mi Flash Tool installers if needed to install drivers.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B611uyXmi12kWm9EQWhLZUJ0dVE/view?usp=sharing
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B611uyXmi12kQzctQm5EY2lFOXc/view?usp=sharing
5) Run the application. Sign in. Hold volume down and power button to enter bootloader mode.
6) Hit unlock in Mi Unlock Tool. if it says can't find device then goto windows device manager and under Android phone update the Driver Software via internet and make sure it says Xiaomi Corp.
7) Now try to hit unlock button again and this time it will definitely work.
Hit Thanks if it worked for you bcoz even i was pissed i couldnt unlock bootloader and fedup of waiting.

Didn't work for me. Trying to unlock bootloader with latest mi unlock tool since 10-15 days got permission but stuck at 99% account binding. And now tried with older version still no luck it stops at 50% and says couldn't verify device. Its frustrating now.

Actually I am already having one redmi 3s and I unlocked its bootloader 6 months ago. After buying new device I created new account and carried the same process of unlocking bootloader ( from permission to unlocking) but it didn't work on that account. I tried with the older account and voilla!! Bootloader unlocked. In newer account after getting permission I tried 10-12 days but no luck.

Day 5 : It's passing 50% woohooo**** 99% stuck. It said current account is not bound. Browsing the web for solution.
Error 86012 with Chinese stuff in it when binding via developer settings. Frustrated AF.
Day 7 : Fck this **** I'll just flash MIUI Global Beta 7.2.1.6 as the web said. Lost my backup files and the unlock is fail after all. Depressed AF.
Day 8 : Tried step by step carefully, learned from trials and errors. Login i.mi.com, then locate device. Login Mi Unlock Tool, wait a few minutes then started to shutdown device to fastboot, connect the device to computer and it got unlocked successfuly. Then i happily flash TWRP and RR ROM after.

As per Day 7 you flashed the Global Beta Rom. How did you do that without unlocking the Bootloader? Which rom file did you use? The .zip or the .tgz? I have been trying to flash the global beta/trying to downgrade for a week and I have failed every time. Mind helping me out?

[How to] flash Global to China Mi6 without UBL

I bought the MI6 and find out that without tools or unlock bootloader, there is no way to flash a global rom to china rom. My Mimax convenient EDL cannot be used in Mi6.
Unlock is easy, but since mine is new and under warranty, i prefer a Xiaomi rom.
Luckily i fond this tool:

Credit to the dev http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=663972&highlight=xiaomitool
Download this, run, and follow the screen.
it will check your boot, recovery, then list the rom that possible to install.
Choose global, lets it download, choose recovery and the tool do the rest.

Thank you. I will give it a try on " bricked" mi5 and new mi6.

Just ask for permission to unlock bootloader, usually takes a week or so. Unlock > flash > lock again. No need to experiment with some tools or whatnot official.

I already had been using the phone for long enough, the permission took 4 hours to go through. Never been an active user of their services either.

Actually I am looking for a way to wipe whole partition as my second-hand mi6 is binding with a mi account which is not mine.
Flashing in EDL mode is easy to flash any official from you want but asking to unlock the device after setting up.
Though there is some tricks can be done to bypass the checking, I cannot log on my mi account or even restart device.
I had just had a tried as this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-max/how-to/installing-twrp-locked-bootloader-t3406501
To flash TWRP directly by MiFlash. But fail to boot in it with a 'the system has been corrupted'.
Just wanna give more ways to flash or unlock with the limitation of officially unlock BL

Enable OEM Unlocking/Debloat Script for Tmobile/Sprint

all you have to do is extract the zip file, make sure your phone has adb debugging enabled, plug it into the computer, and run the script and it will debloat your phone and enable you to slide the oem unlocking toggle in developer options that was previously greyed out
********WARNING*********
this script will remove the keyboard app from your phone leaving you without a way to type, i dont know which exact package it is but you can always look them up and just remove that line from the script. otherwise make sure you have a usb-otg cable and keyboard to use or a program like Vysor/scrcpy or you wont be able to type. just reinstall gboard or whatever other keyboard you use and it will be fine

Just getting the unlock token from Oneplus. Successfully flash and unlocked bootloader. Is it have any way to unlock network?
Update:
Have been flash global rom 10.5.7 and the update to beta global rom, network still locked.
Fastboot erase modemst1 and modemst2 also can't unlock network.

Hey does this mean what I think it means. Can you unlock a bootloader and convert to global if your phone is network locked? Can someone explain how I can unlock bootloader after enabling oem unlocking?

Yes, can covert to Global but sim remain locked.
Follow this link to covert.

Thank you. I went ahead to start the process and the oem unlock switch worked after some trouble having my pc recognize my phone in fastboot. Submitted it through oneplus and waiting on an unlock token. OP has my thanks for creating this script. Been waiting for this since I got the device. Surprised there isn't more interaction on this thread.

Anyone know what actually locks the sim slot? And how can it persist even on Global rom? On Tmo devices there is a "Device Unlock" app that gets deleted after you sim unlock the phone by carrier.
But global rom doesn't have the proprietary unlock app, so what is actually keeping it locked? Does the modem have the locking instructions in it?

Yes, something like that which is impossible to remove.

The previous OP devices it was possible after flashing Int. rom.
Question is where/how did they place the restrictions now. It had something to do with the modem after the t-mo app unlocks the phone.
But I don't think backing up and restoring a modem from an unlocked OP8 and flash it to locked OP8 will work as intended anymore.
I guess no one cared enough to reverse engineer this again
