Unable to unlock bootloader - Lenovo K6 / K6 Power / K6 Note Questions & Answers

hello, I have been trying to unlock the bootloader of my lenovo k6 power with no luck. I have followed the steps in https://forum.xda-developers.com/k6-power/how-to/guide-karate-t3663070 but the device is booting to fastboot mode and in minimal adb when "fastboot devices" is typed it shows the device.But when i type this command "fastboot -i 0x17ef oem unlock-go", its shows waiting for device.
Also i have installed the lenovo drivers from the phone itself and tried other lenovo usb driver version with no luck. How can i solve this,Please help.

Computer recognises phone but phone doesn't think it's connected?

I'm trying to unlock the bootloader so that I can flash a custom recovery.
I've enabled both unlocking the bootloader and USB debugging and the computer recognizes the phone when I type "fastboot devices" in the terminal. When on the bootloader screen i've wrote "adb devices" and the computer recognised the phone.
I've then typed "fastboot flashing unlock" and a list of commands come up. The same list comes up even when I type "sudo fastboot flashing unlock".
"sudo fastboot oem" unlock gives me a FAILED (remote: unknown command) message.
What can be the cause of this problem?
My linux computer recognizes my phone when I type fastboot devices, but judging by the last line on the bootloader the phone doesn't think it's connected to the computer.
tbh just use nexus root toolkit

Unlocking bootloader unofficially?

Hey guys! Is there any way to unlock Redmi Pro's bootloader without waiting for permission from Xiaomi? Have anybody found a way to bypass it?
easy, first make sure you have spflash tool and a working fastboot rom (just in case of trouble)
Next make sure your computer has working fastboot and adb.
Enable USB debugging on the device.
Enable OEM unlock in the Developer options settings on the device.
Connect the device to the computer through USB.
From a terminal on a computer, type the following to boot the device into fastboot mode:
adb reboot bootloader
Once the device is in fastboot mode, verify your PC sees the device by typing fastboot devices
If you don't see your device serial number, and instead see "<waiting for device>", fastboot is not configured properly on your machine.
From the same terminal, type the following command to unlock the bootloader:
fastboot oem unlock
Device is wiped & unlocked & no OS
Now flash twrp, reboot into it and copy xiaomi.eu rom on card & install
Good luck

Sadly there is no oem unlock option in developer options. I'm on MIUI 8.1.2.0 Stable (MHQCNDI)
EDIT: i just switched to Developer ROM and still nothing.
sorry, my mistake i use another laguage, activate usb debuging , conect to the pc and run adb , if some permision asked alow
I can't unlock it using fastboot oem unlock since it's mediatek device =/ When I try I get
(bootloader) Start unlock flow
FAILED (remote:
Unlock failed - Err:0xffffffff
)
finished. total time: 0.016s"

Click to collapse
i unlocked that way, maybe you do something wrong
try another way without unlocking try flash twrp with spflash tool
Do you remember what miui version did you have when you unlocked this way? Maybe I can roll back to it and then try again. Were you using developer or stable rom?
i was on fake/vendor rom this i thinlk http://blog.geekbuying.com/index.ph...ndroid-6-0-smartphone-firmware-212302-161109/
Crissz, your bootloader was allready unlocked when you received your phone. You cannot do a simple oem unlock via fastboot with a xiaomi phone. It's a fact..
@KarKlim please try fastboot oem unlock-go comand too
This method does not work as many say
(bootloader) Start unlock flow
FAILED (remote:
Unlock failed - Err:0xffffffff
)
finished. total time: 0.006s

Redmi Pro with Latest stable china rom
Is it possible? Xiaomi regoke my unclock previleges and now i have my Redmi Pro stuck in China Developer Rom. No way to install multilanguase Xiaomi.eu... can someone help please?
Maybe try with a new xiaomi account with different sim card.
And then from a different internet ip, from your friend or something.
I have no idea how they collect data or what. I'm just guessing here.

zuk z1 bootloader locked when twrp installed

what i messed up?
i have installed custom official cynogen14.1 rom and twrp recovery. everything was working fine.
but i messed up with bootloader. I have locked oem from fastboot mode without enabling option for oem unlocking in developer settings.
Now as my phone have custom rom and twrp installed it went into bootloop and only shows zuk logo and again restart.
What i diid till now?
i have opened backcover so that i can turn of bootloop and phone by disconecting battery.
I can enter into fastboot mode by pressing vol.+ and vol- buttons sumultaneously and connecting usb cable.
But i cannot unlock bootloader as it says unlocking bootloader not allowed. I have tried device specific commads like "fastboot -i 0x2b4c oem unlock" and "fastboot -i 0x2b4c oem unlock-go" but nothing works.
i have stock recovery image but cannot flash while bootloader is locked.
i can enter into adb sideload by following method:
by loading stock recovery by typing "fastboot boot recovery.img" (this does not work with twrp as it says signature varification failed)
and then selecting apply update >> selecting apply fron adb
this much i can do does anyone knows how to recover from such a state.
please help me or my phone will be a waste.
is there any way to install stock recovery i think phone will boot properly if i managed to install stock recovery.

Bootloader question on 906k

Hello,
I have a galaxsy s5 906k and I've been reading on how to unlock the bootloader as I'm trying to install Remix OS and it seems I've come across a lot of misinformation.... and if possible can someone tell me what exactly I need to unlock the bootloader, as I can't find a list of the appropriate tools? Do I need twrp for my specific device?? Some have said yes and some no.
My phone is already rooted.
Also post unlock bootloader question, can I use the 900k rom from remix to install on my 906k?
EDIT**
I can only boot into download mode, not fastboot mode. adb devices returns the device, but fastboot devices returns nothing. Tried adb reboot-bootloader`and it just shows waiting for any device.
These all boot into download/odin mode!!!!!!
adb reboot download
adb reboot bootloader / adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flashing unlock
Only one that boots into recovery mode! Then I go to Reboot to bootloader and it comes back to recovery mode!!!!!!!!!!
adb reboot recovery

fastboot commands not reacting after oreo update

hi, yesterday i updated my bootloader unlocked and rooted g6 to oreo via lg bridge. so far so good. now i am trying to flash twrp with fastboot command but i only get "waiting for any device". i can put the phone into fastboot mode with adb command but then still no reaction to fastboot commands from there. usb debugging is on. allow oem unlocking is frozen (grey) in developer options but it says "oem alreasy unlocked".
