Unlocking the bootloader on a Huawei P Smart - Huawei P Smart Questions & Answers

So...I'm not an EMUI fan and as you know I have a Huawei P Smart and I downloaded Treble Checker and it's supported (Slot A) but I tried everything I could to unlock the bootloader and I can't...
Is there any free way to get my Bootloader unlocked on my FIG-LX1???
Thanks in advance,
Diogo

Only way is with DC Unlocker for like $5 which is not much.. i also have FIG-LX1 thinking of doing it soon also. Maybe you can try first and tell me if newer ROMs are any good.

I have unlocked bootloader ...Its useful for getting root ...But project treble is a bust for p smart .. all A only GSI images and custom roms comes with some sort of bug that forces everyone back to stock and there is no dedicated dev with a p smart of building specifivcally for p smart ...But you need root to use the phone in a meaningful way and not to be a slave to huawei.

U.S.A. 7X Owners Who Remained Vigilant And Stock Are About To Get Rewarded !

Are You Like Me?
Have you remained Vigilant.. and kept your 7x a Virgin?
Untouched by the rough hands of another country's software.. resisting the unwanted pressures of your peers to unlock your chastity belt.. (A.K.A.) your bootloader.. to give in to what's been described as plethora of pleasure known as:
TWRP.. Root.. ROM's ( As Unstable As They Currently Are On The 7x )
Well..
I'm happy to say Gratification is just around the corner..
U.S.A. Variants ( BND-24) Versions of the 7x will recieve the "OFFICIAL AND 100% STABLE" release of EMUI / OREO 8.0 within the next 72 hours of this writing via an O.T.A. update from Honor.
I'm So Glad I Stayed Locked & Stock
Congratulations Honor!

Unlocking the bootloader has nothing to do with taking ota, flashing a custom recovery does. People that rooted would have problems with taking the ota.

I just got this device. I was on here seeing if theres a way to unlock bootloader and return to factory later. Because I knew the Oreo was coming soon. That's great news. I thought it was coming in May. So I'll just chill and wait for ota for now. Will honor come through when it comes to letting us unlock out bootloader that is the question. Or are they just working on updating a faster bootloader unlock process for us?
A Suggestion...

LEAVE IT STOCK.
Take A Look Around The Threads..
Look at how many have bricked their 7x's
In Such A Hurry To Root... For What?
There Is Not A Stable Fully Functional Custom ROM Out There For The 7x.
There Are NO United States Of America FACTORY IMAGES Out There For The 7x.
You can eh.... Flash a Stock ROM from another country At Your Own Risk Of Course.
Have you stopped to ask yourself.. why Honor has not released Factory Images for this device.. that was announced in October of 2017 and released December 7th 2017 ?
People are actually PAYING services out there to recover their 7x's.... because they go down the rabbit hole and can't get out.
How Sad Is That...
You Were Wise To Stay Locked & Stock.. :good:
In about 60 hours you'll get your payoff..
Wait until Decryption is resolved before you Root.
Wait until a U.S.A. Factory Image is released before you Root.
You Can Do Everything With A STOCK 7x That You Can Do With A Rooted 7x
You don't need backups.... STOCK ROM'S DON'T CRASH... AND "FACTORY RESET IS YOUR BACKUP" when you don't root.

I did, so I don't have to lose my data once factory images are available and I decide to root it in the future.
Yeah exactly the same reason as the post above mine. I unlocked the bootloader the day I got the phone so that way when the time comes to do any rooting or modding I wouldn't have to wipe my phone and lose everything. And I've still received all the ota updates on the L24 thus far with the unlocked bootloader.

It's A Logical Path To Pursue...
I have NO FAITH in Honor releasing Factory Images in the near future.
I think there is a "Method Behind The Madness"
Personally, my Android Data is all backed up in 2 places.. and it's all Android - Centric
I would NEVER do ANY personal business (Banking , Shopping Etc) on any Android device.
Especially an HUAWEI / HONOR device.. for all the reasons my Government has stated.
This is not a "Long-Term" solution phone for me personally.. It will be sold.. actually it would have already been sold, but I had $900.00 vehicle repair snatch my OnePlus 6 money right out of my hands..
This device was a Failure as far as gaining Developer support...
No Custom Kernels: "Franco's Kernel" oh if only... ( So why root.. You can't under / overvolt, swap governers, add features etc )
Even though Kernel Source was released 5 months ago.
It appears... Treble Ports are the way of the Future. I'm not complaining just stating facts.. ( I guess if I loved the 7x that much I would learn how to pack a Kernel for myself and use it..) but I don't love the 7x and it's Kirin Technology enough to do so.
This device will just never gain ground or love.. is hated by my government.. has the Un-popular ( For Developer's ) Kirin Processor and a weak GPu.
What it does have is Oreo 8.0 and Project Treble Support baked in.
Let's keep it shinny and in "Like-New" condition.. Pure Stock ( No Warning! Screens NEVER Modified in any way ) and ready to sell...
That's The Ticket.
So I'm unlocked rooted and running TWRP on my l24 does that mean I miss out on emui 8 or are there any Solutions

How long you think it'll take for treble to be active for this device? I'm considering updating to the beta so I can then use the RR rom but whats the point if I can just wait a few days to get official Oreo and then be all in with treble. I guess I don't fully understand what treble is nor it's immediate relation to this device.

Treble will help get custom ROMs on our device faster. Just wait for official Oreo. Than we unlock bootloader. Wait for updated twrp with Oreo support. Than custom ROMs. Than would need treble support twrp. So we still have a ways to go for treble and custom ROMs. But we're getting close.

This is a simplified explanation of how Treble works, or at least my simple understanding of it. Google requires any device shipping with Oreo to have the main OS reside in its own partition separate from the OEM vender stuff.
Is no one else going to comment on how crazy this guy is?
Why Wait ?

Listen... You Don't Need To Wait For Anything...
I MAY BE 100% INCORRECT.. BUT, IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT HUAWEI / HONOR HAS STOPPED THE ABILITY TO RETREIVE YOUR UNLOCK CODE (OFFICIALLY) FROM THEIR WEBSITE.
If True...
Do you know what that means?
It means... they MAY NOT enable the Vendor Partition in the OFFICIAL ( O.T.A. ) version of Oreo / EMUI 8.0 that will be released in about 48 hours from the time of this writing.
Without That Partition.... Project Treble is a NO GO.
In your case.. If all you want to do is run the ROM you mentioned, just use the Bootleg Method posted elsewhere in these threads to Unlock your bootloader.. Install one of these Unofficial TWRP's floating around... and install your ROM.
Done.
Why Wait?
For the Official Release of Oreo on Monday when all you are going to do is Overwrite it with a ROM posted elsewhere?
Sounds Like You Know What You Want...
Go For It.
Stock Oreo has NOTHING OF INTEREST for those that just want to flash Beta ROM's
Stock Oreo / EMUI 8.0 is for those of us that put 100% Stability and FULL Functionality First & Foremost..
I paid 100% of the Price for this Device.
I Personally.. Want 100% OF THE DEVICE'S SOFTWARE & FEATURES FUNCTIONAL...
At this point in the 7x's development... Only Stock EMUI provides that level of performance.

Hey Ahmad...
Here is a way to avoid seeing my emo's
I ONLY POST IN "MY THREADS" WHEN IT COMES TO THE 7X... THERE IS NOTHING ELSE OF RELEVANCE HERE ANYMORE EVEN WORTHY OF MY TIME..
I'm sick of seeing " Help Me! My 7x has fallen and can't get up! " threads.
So you pretty much will not see RAIDERWILL & HIS EMO'S anywhere but in a thread he created.
SO AHMAD... JUST STAY AWAY FROM "A-N-Y" RAIDERWILL THREADS.... AND YOU'LL BE GOOD-TO-GO.

Treble and locked or unlocked bootloaders

It may be obvious to others,but... What (if anything) does the project treble requirement to be able to boot a vanilla Android ROM do to the idea of the OEM locked bootloader?
I know that there are devs working on bringing project Treble to older/non-treble devices, but going forward, will devices shipping with Oreo, P and others in future be able to have OEM locked bootloaders and still meet the requirement of booting a vanilla android image?
I'm interested as I've not felt the need for a custom ROM since KitKat.

Yes as long as you can unlock the bootloader you can flash other system images to it or do whatever you want with the device.
But with a locked bootloader you cant alter the necessary system partition despite the device is treble partitioned.

General Questions about the P Smart from a Huawei Noobie ;) (serious)

Hi
I'm new to Huawei Devices and have a few questions about the P Smart because I want to get it soon.
Is it fully treble supported?
How to unlock its Bootloader?
If it's fully Treble supported can I install every treble ROM that supports that CPU family?
How is EMIUI?
What Custom ROMs do you guys/girls recommend (In this forum and treble forums)
What settings should I change EMEDIANTLY after getting my Device/EMIUI
Any Xposed/Magisk Modules recommended for this Phone.
SuperSU or Magisk for EMIUI Stock?
Thanks in advance

Hi lots of response from your questions I see! Lol. Are you still on psmart? Where have you got to with it?
My experience: MOS =ministry of solutions unlocked my bootloader, I paid 9£ for them to downgrade firmware and give me unlock bl code, I've been around for sometime but I struggle with fastboot, dev terminology and new devices esp Huawei!
I got twrp+magisk mostly for viper4. Although I'd like to use quick step and xposed although I'm reading people have probs with xposed and it's not compatible I might be reading old threads but I ain't willing to risk a brick. From what I see thus far there isn't much in the way of development and it seems like those using custom ROMs are desperate to get back to stock because it's so stable.
Be good to hear what progress you have made

well for the both of you xposed beta 4 test 1 that can be downloaded direcly installed from xposed gitbub works but not all the modules will work and some modules will bootloop and brick you
there are 0 P smart devs... there are devs like askuccio and hacky86 making treble GSI for our specific kirin soc hi6250 but not for P smart
the most stable custom roms are omnirom and RR and lineage 15 maintained by
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/roms-openkirin-aosp-collection-t3828806
project openkirin... they are stable.. but the camera doesnt have AR althought it is stock camera.. wifi bridge and app twin won't work and other small bugs like i cant use the camerra to scan barcodes to make payments in my banking app.. the rest of the p smart threads are dead.. global search in xda for openkirin, kirin659 , hurupdater, hi6250.. cos our only custom roms are treble GSI's

Phone supports treble and AB partitioning. You can probably flash a GSI from the project treble forums.

Does flashing a gsi is as safe as flashing a custom rom.
And after flashing gsi is it possible to revert back to official android one(pie)????????

a GSI (Generic System Image) is just a fancy term for a custom ROM system image for project treble enabled devices
And in theory, this phone supports the A/B partitioning (apparently, according to treble check app), you can try flashing to the other partition and set it as active?
Besides, I think you can flash the stock images if you can find them too.
Although, obviously this means you need to unlock your bootloader. Which of course voids warranty, etc, etc.

Source code available now for 6.1 Plus & others.

Nokia have released the source code, so dev could possibly create a AOSP rom for the 6.1 plus and other source codes for other Nokia's are also available. https://nokiapoweruser.com/nokia-7-1-and-nokia-6-1-plus-kernel-source-code-now-available-for-download/
All we need now is a way to unlock the bootloader officially. Hopefully it happens this year. Nokia keeps saying stay tuned and watch their facebook page for updates on bootloader unlocking, so it should happen eventually.

Hi Nikhil, How did you go. Did Nokia allow you to unlock your Bootloader??
Did anyone flash a gsi and was able to get gapps afterwards? If so, how? I can't find a functional twrp for our device

Um.. I think custom roms will be out for Nokia X6 as now twrp is successfully ported and even some kernals.Thanks to developers.
Development started!?

is it even worth unlocking bootloader on psmart?

Is it worth unlocking bootloader on psmart? Fig lx1. I ask as it doesn't look like we got much support around here. For example: do we have Los 16? Pie? Or any other Android 9 custom ROMs?
What benefits have you reaped from unlocking?
Are you back in stock?
psmart has treble support so there are a whole bunch of GSI'S and the Openkirin project roms you can flash The problem with our device is camera .....therr are ports and hacks but nothing 100% ...
however its worth it unlocking just to get magisk & twrp for modding and ful device control ..
