problem with idol 3 4.7 6039K
Hi there,
I don't know if this is the correct section, I hope so, otherwise I really appreciate you can drive me to the appropriate one, it's new for me this forum!
I have an idol 3 4.7, where I have installed kingroot and after I took out (I didn´t reset the phone, Just unistall the app),
yesterday i received the update system message, I imagine for the marshmallow update, so I say Yes, install it.
But the phone entered in bootloop. I only have the initial screen with the options as Reboot system, adb and so on.
I tried to wipe but nothing. So now my phone stucked. I tried with an assistance center in Quito but they could't
My questions are:
may I use this system for 6039K?
Or does anybody hear about a solution in this case?
Should I open and take out the battery?
Please, any suggestion will be really welcome in order to make the phone work again.
P.

Tell me info About your phone? Model,Country,ROM...../?

All is standard, no root, no twrp and the latest software from alcatel, the model is 6045Y. But all of a sudden my phone decided to random reboot and it didn't stop
So i looked to unbrick it and came with a couple of options, first i tried to sideload software but that didn't work, than i tried it with Mobile upgrade from alcatel and that didn't work.
Than i saw this thread and tried it twice but after Panasonic and the sound it starts to reboot again. Now i'm trying again with Mobile upgrade.
All that is changed is the recovery interface it looks now like it is from MM.

More Looks like Hardware Problem Try again with Mobile q if not works...Send to warranty repair.....

Alek, thank you for this great guide. It saved my 6045k model.
I was messing around with AlekOS 3.0, had issues with lock screen and experimented with modems. I managed to permanently disable secondary sim slot (was using famewolf's modem backups). I forgot to copy modem.img backup to my PC! Also tried bunch of TWRP backups with no luck. My last hope was Mobile Upgrade Q and reverting back tu 5.0.2. Unfortunately with no success (only one sim slot is recognized again).
Finally I found this thread, followed the guide and I can confirm that it did solve sim issue. The setup finished with no errors that you mentioned. It got stuck at 45%, but after a while (10min) it completed successfully.
Cheers!

I'm in the same situation as you,but my problem is that Panasonic Eluga doesn't recognice my devide,drivers are correctly installed,I checked everything but nothing:

Mi 5s (X unlocking bootloader X) and root

Hi guys,
It turned out this script can't really unlock the bootloader. Although I didn't see it, my phone must have come with an unlocked bootloader.
I did another test on the same script but for Redmi 4X and the result was the same - can't unlock the bootloader.
So the moderators can delete this topic as it now serves no purpose. There are other topics for flashing TWRP and rooting the phone.
I am sorry for misleading you guys...
Here's how to install TWRP and SuperSu.
I'm not responsible if you brick your phone or lose data. I did a test on mine and all worked fine.
Info found here - (https://www.gizdev.com/root-xiaomi-mi-5s-unlock-bootloader/).
What you need:
1. Mi Flash Tool - Link(or just the ADB driver - Link)
2. Flasher ToolKit for Mi 5s - Link.
3. USB Debugging enabled in Developer Options
Install the Mi Flash Tool or the ADB drivers. Windows might tell you the drivers cannot be verified. Click on Yes to continue with the installation.
Unzip the Flasher ToolKit files to a folder on your computer.
Start with FLASHER TOOLKIT Capricorn.bat.

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Hit Enter and this is what you'll see:
First you need to unlock the bootloader, so click on 3. Bootloader Utility. - This only really checks if the bootloader is locked or not. Nothing else.
The program will inform that hitting Enter will restart the phone in Bootloader mode.
Once there the unlocking will begin and you'll see this:
Now the phone will restart.
Once it boots up Android, you can continue with the next step - installing TWRP. Now it's a good time to transfer the SuperSu zip file to your phone. In Downloads for example.
Select the first option - Flash ZCX-TWRP 3.0.2.X for Mi 5s.
The image will be transferred and the phone will be restarted in Recovery mode. It might take a while to load TWRP for the first time, be patient.
Now that you're in TWRP, click on Install, select the SuperSU zip file. Once flashed, go back to Reboot, System.
If something fails:
-The ADB drivers didn't work for me so I installed Mi Flash and unplugged/plugged the phone in the USB.
Check in Device Manager if the ADB drivers are loaded for your Mi 5s. If you don't see anything saying ADB, unplug the phone and plug it back in the USB. Or try another USB port. Or try uninstalling the current drivers and reconnect the phone again.
-If you've closed the Flasher ToolKit and you try to start it again, but nothing happens, open Task Manager and kill/end task the adb.exe *32 process.
- If your phone restarts in Recovery, but all you see is the TWRP logo for minutes, give it about 10 minutes. If nothing changes, restart the phone by pressing and holding the power button. Have you unlocked the bootloader first?
It might have been a good idea to take a camera and shoot every step of the process, but I was testing it to confirm it's working. Hence most of the screenshots are from the web.
Anyway, that's what I can think of right now. If I'm missing something or you can't get it to work, let me know.

yes do it plz

Yes, it's a great ideea. Do it pls.

it will be a good start to have a guide here, you should give all the ways you know, including the first step to unlock by contacting xiaomi, however if you find a guide for a certain section you can link to it (or copy it and add a link so it won't be broken) .
It would also be nice to have a guide for major roms, with some optional steps that not all are aware of, like switching to f2fp

Should be ready now. The good thing is that you don't need to contact Xiaomi to unlock the bootloader.

ok so i did everything you told me
but i fail
first i press the 3 and everything was ok my device is unlocked no problem and its restart automatic
next i go to fast boot... and when i press 1 its show me twrp is install
but after that noting happens ... i press vol up and power its go to mi recovery
my phone is on fast boot i check that with cmd
dont know way
eny idea what to do
eny other method ? can i install with mi flash tool ?
im so confuse

Did you see the TWRP logo when the recovery was supposedly installed? Repeat again the TWRP installation and let's see what will happen.

I'd say the recovery image is not getting transferred to your phone. Do you see a confirmation that the img file was sent over? It usually states how much time it took to transfer over.

---------- Post added at 03:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:01 PM ----------
ok i did it problem was the adb i install naked adb driver its on know...ok so how i install custom rom? its like my other phones but something new in mounting it seed read only ? i had to change that or something? witch to wipe?

When starting TWRP the very first screen asks if you want to mount the partitions in read only mode or full access. And a check box to never show this again. Have you seen that? If not, try to update TWRP to 3.1.x.x, don't remember the exact version, you can find it here, in the Mi 5s section of the forums.
If you get that working, installing a new OS is pretty easy - go to Install, select the ZIP file with the new OS and follow the instructions. You might want to wipe cache and dalvik to avoid force closures after that.
Usually instructions on how to install a specific OS version are found in that OS's forum section.

i all ready do that bye rename and replace the new twrp in the flash kit folder everything is don... what is the best rom right now to install?

That's really up to your preference. I'm on global developer 7.5.25. Some use LOS.

i tried your guide, but i cant unlock bootloader. After i select option 3, the phone restarts and the bunny appears but after that i only receive the message attached.
Can somebody tell me what i do wrong?

What's your current MIUI version?

I'm on 8.2.1.0 and on computer i have Windows 10. I enabled usb debugging and type on add device account
Trimis de pe al meu MI 5s folosind Tapatalk

To be honest I'm not really sure why it doesn't work for you. The phone restarts, so you have the adb drivers.
Here's a little something that deserves a shot - the very first post - http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=525726&extra=page=1&page=2&mobile=2
I'd love to hear back from you if that worked or not.

i make a request to xiaomi to unlock bootloader and they aproved it in 6 hours, so i will try with mi unlock tool when i get home today. i keep you informed. thx

In managed to unlock with official metod.
Trimis de pe al meu MI 5s folosind Tapatalk

I've taken a look at the code in the script and this method WILL NOT unlock your bootloader. This is only useful for flashing TWRP and rooting a phone, if your phone IS ALREADY UNLOCKED. The third picture provided in the original post is incorrect and that will not be printed on the screen. The script does not attempt
Code:
fastboot oem unlock-go
at any point.
You will probably have to go through the official unlock process.

Try unbrick and fix imei with hcu and idt

Hi,
My histore is.
updated with RuHupdater v4 my mate9 for the ROM GPU turbo B377.
after trying to update again my mate9 did not start more, did not enter fastboot, did not enter the recovery, nothing, nothing.
the only solution was to testpoint and install the board software by IDT.
but the IDT has deleted my IMEi and partitions from the modem. IMEI is 000000000000
I was able to install the rom of factory of plate MHA-L29000000073
finally the HCU corrected my IMEI using this board ROM. But other functions were not corrected and the phone did not start after fix IMEI
so I had to install the Chinese STF ROM and leave it in the CHINA region for all functions to be fixed.
Ok, IMEI and everything working.
but .... this STF china firmware does not accept TWRP installation so I no can update my mate9 and get out of this board rom.
so what method should I use to have my mate9 updated and imei working at the same time?
thanks for

please , can you put the files you used to solve the problem? links of the files would work too !
thank you

I have the same problem, I took my mate 9 to a technician, he fixed my phone using test point but he install a different firmware 9.0 Pie from Another region,my previous firmware was MHA-L29C567
Plus the rear camera is just black screen and it lost the IMEI.
How can I rollback to Oreo and recover the IMEI and rear camera?
I know if I use the HWOTA8 from Pie using TWRP it will cost a another brick.
Thank you!

So, after an agonising month of trial and errors and leaving my phone with multiple 3rd parties repair shops, the phone did not get fixed except with one shop which while fixing it they wrote a different IMEI causing my phone to stop wrking after a while due to local about phones coming from outside...
After some digging in the internet, I found a guy which he is a member of Team MT and he was willing to help fixing the phone as a paid service. I took the risk of gambling to fix it instead of leaving it as an idle paper weight. We connected through TeamViewer and started the fixing sessions and eventually he managed to fix it completely with an European rom C432 B177 (The original was C185). Till now I am writing from the phone after upgrading officially to Android P EMUI 9.
I hope this might help anyone who's having difficulties to fix their phone due to the lack of the material needed to do so.
Guy's page on VK : https://m.vk.com/remphone_vrn
The guy is trust worthy as I needed another repair session because we fixed the phone on incorrect IMEIs which lead us to fix it again on the original ones...
Things needed:
*TeamViewer
*some files to be downloaded bearing around 10GB
*knowing hot to start the phone with test point
*Intuitive understanding of deviated English
*Around 2-3 hours of continuous time for a successful repair session...
*And most importantly the original box to get the IMEIs and other important serials to get the phone operational...

As in the title, something wrong with my P9 Lite happened. Namely, the day before yesterday he decided to turn off by himself with a 50% battery there, but turned on normally after 2minutes. At night from Wednesday to Thursday it discharged and in the morning after charging I couldn`t start it.
The phone either booted and stopped several times on the Huawei logo and the note "Powered by Android". I can enter by using a key combination the eRecovery mode. Ultimately, it started up one time, and it worked until the evening and until it was discharged again. After that it has been charged to 60%, one time he turned on but after an hour of further charging he fell on the amen. I've been trying to fight him since the morning that maybe he'll turn on like yesterday, but no. I had this situation for the first time in August 2018, then in February and July 2019 with that it was probably a decent brick then, because this black screen was constantly displayed with an exclamation mark and some error. A visit in smartphone service has always helped, but I can't spend 80 PLN again to fix that issue. After the repair in July, I specially wrote the system version so that I would have knowledge for the future in the event of a repeat. The phone had the firmware as below:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Today I downloaded the system from this link: huawei-firmware.com/rom/huawei-p9-lite/vns-l21/9618
However, at 5% installation the error crashes and I can only restart the phone. I tried using two different sd cards, so the option of the card being faulty is 99% out of the question. I hope that some good soul will help me, because I believe that I can solve this problem independently at home and not necessarily after paying with a GSM spec. : P
I forgot to add that the phone has not been updated since it was repaired or anything. I didn't do any treatments myself with loading custom systems. He just turned himself off, without any previous signs of malfunction and end. I was surprised that the phone doesn`t want to accept the software that was uploaded by a service technician ... but maybe I am doing something wrong.
At the end fastboot situation:
PHONE: unlocked
FRP: locked
EDIT:
In another forum I got instructions to upload rollback and then soft "C432B160" and everything will be good. I took it up and the rollback installation was completed, after a minute the phone rebooted. Unfortunately, this problem caused another problem, because since I installed rollback I can`t enter the erecovery mode, where I have possibility to shut down...so phone stuck with the Huawei logo all the time. I was supposed to upload this software, but I had to leave the house and the phone was completely discharged when I returned. From that moment only fastboot mode starts, or after switching on and trying with different phone buttons, it always becomes a logo and got freezed. I was charging it for an hour, but after disconnecting from the charger the LED was blinking red and I saw on the screen message about 0% battery. After that another situation...I connected it to the charger and after a second showed me message of 100% battery, but after a second phone started automatically and hung on the logo again. After unplugging it from charger and trying to start without charging, the LED flashes red and message about disscharge was on the screen. Now I`m seriously starting to wonder, if anything from this phone will still be..... :/

VNS-L21C432B120 ?? It's one of the oldest firmware you can have..
I really don't know if i can help, but if you agree we can give a try..

Yas, my device won`t boot up since 1st of July and I don`t know why...because I don`t tried to update firmware, unlock bootloader etc.
I know that, but year ago I have a same problem and GSM service installed that soft.
My device is dual sim.
Thanks for help!

Ok let's go..
Take a working (at least 4gb) SD,
move away all your stuff then format it as FAT32.
Download this >> update.zip << file (VNS-L21C432B160/dual sim).
Unzip it, you find UPDATE.APP file.
Turn off the phone.
On your PC create a folder and rename it DLOAD.
Copy/paste (only) UPDATE.APP file into DLOAD folder
and put it into SD, then insert the SD into your device.
Turn the device on keeping vol+ & vol- then power button
all together till an update screen appears.
Ok, release now the buttons...
After the flashing process, your device should reboot to system.
If passes over 15 mins, reboot into the e-recovery
(press vol+ & power button) and do a factory reset + wipe cache.
Done !!
NOTE: the firmwrare link is taken using Firmware Finder repo,
all credits go to this fantastic app team/users that created it.

Thank you, but I tried to install by dload method some kind of softwares B120,130,150,160 if I remember...but no effects. In other forum, they said that I need to install rollback, and after that firmware B160. Ok, I installed rollback perfectly but after that I can`t go to erecovery mode...only fastboot is avaliable and whene I turn on phone it would stuck on Huawei logo. Now it`s discharged and i don`t have any idea how can i charged it to over 30% of battery.

Dude if there is some hardware problem
it will be a little difficult to recover..
so when you bringed it to service have they replaced the motherboard?
If not you may still have hardware problems, but let's keep this aside ...
Try again what i wrote..
In the meantime I give you the correct rollback link, maybe you used the wrong one.
Dude, the rollback package is used only to revert from android 7 to android 6.
In order to unbrick the device, in android 6 environment, dload method is enough..
Visit the UNIFIED HELP THREAD, post #6, see by yourself..

I know it`s some kind of big problem.
3 times it was unbricked in service, but that is non authorized and they don`t do anything with motherboard...only installed me somehow new software for money circa 20 USD/EUR.
Okay i`ll try that tomorow and show results. I keep my fingers crossed, that my Huawei tomorow boot normal.

Sorry, i forgot to add the LINK to correct rollback package,
here you are..

Edit: next time, maybe tomorrow i will post how to extract
firmware (BOOT,RECOVERY,SYSTEM) from UPDATE.APP
and how to flash it via fastboot commands.

I don`t have time to do something with my bricked phone over a week, but today I tried to install software B160 and rollback by dload mode. It didn`t work. I can`t charge my phone over 30% of battery, and when I plug off the charger, phone have probably not enough battery to turn software installation. Also when I tried to hold 3 buttons, and then connected the charger cable...the installation didn`t start. So I think, that you must tell me how to flash soft via fastboot commands...because this is the only one mode that I can turn on my phone. I feel completely helpless, because today my replacement phone broke...so I have to bring Huawei back to life.
EDIT:
I forgot to mentioned...When i hold 3 buttons to start installation process phone vibrate one, then shown red lightning sign that battery is empty, and LED flashed 3 times red...then screen go black and device is powered off...nothing else. Also I tried 4 different SD cards, so I think now the problem with dload mode is that phone is not charged over 30 or 50% (I don`t remeber that) of battery what is required to start the installation process.
Also when I try to charge it, only LED flashes red all the time and on the screen I don`t have information that phone is charging.

Hi dude,
I suspect your device has some serious hardware problem.
If the device has fallen off, it may have broken or unstuck / unsoldered something,
hence the need for a check by specialized technicians / service point.
I suggest, if you have the possibility,
to replace the device with a new or even used one,
functioning and a little more updated / upgradeable.
But trying won't cost anything, so let's do it !!!
Make sure you have minimal adb & fastboot
or a complete platform-tools (link in the same page / it's your choise)
and huawei drivers /HiSuite on your PC,
then in fastboot mode do the command > fastboot devices.
If you have a response like > numbers/letters........device <
then you're ok to go, otherwise it means your PC don't "see" your phone...
From XDA download Huawei Update Extractor and use it
to extract BOOT.img, RECOVERY.img (not RECOVERY2.img)
and SYSTEM.img from your UPDATE.APP file
you extracted from update.zip...(see attachment)
Put those three files into a folder and rename it as you want
(maybe the same where you extracted UPDATE.APP),
then tap in the folder address bar (see attachment) and type cmd then hit enter.
A command window will appears, now you're ready to flash.
In order type following commands:
1 - fastboot flash boot BOOT.img; (let it flash)
2 - fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img; (let it flash)
3 - fastboot flash system SYSTEM.img; (let it flash)
Once finished type > fastboot reboot and cross your fingers...
If all will take right direction your device will reboot correctly,
otherwise (if passes over 15 mins) reboot recovery (vol+ & power buttons)
and do a factory reset..
Hope sincerely it will boot up... :angel:
P.S.: I don't know why i can't post jpg directly, so i zipped into one file...

Oh men i appriciate that you wrote everything. Only one problem, I can`t download the zipped file. :/ Also I keep in mind another type of solution for my Huawei, but more on that later. Now I gonna try to flash software by fastboot my hero.
EDIT: beginning gone well
EDIT2: commands not work properly. I done everything like you told me, but you can see error in cmd (cmd is enabled as administrator).

I download adb from this tutorial:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKRTbv-6Kzc
because previous didn`t work.
As you can see I typed "fastboot flash boot BOOT.img" as you told me, but I get info FAILED. :/
Searched for information and I found, that I need to unlock bootloader once again...and after that every command should work.

Good work dude.
I previously readed on your post
phone = unlocked
frp = locked
i was thinking you was ready to flash
but evidently that was not correct...
For some unknown reason i cannot post
screenshots so i decided to add them on postimage...
As you can see they are quite same as yours...

Grazie molto!
I done everything with software, step by step just like in your images...
...but again no working commands.
I`ve got only info in CMD that FAILED (remote: Command not allowed).
In other threads I menaged to get info that,
if phone has never been rooted and get custom ROM the bootloader is not unlocked and I need to relock it.
The threads are old and then you have to get a special code from Huawei site,
and then tap fastboot oem unlock "special number" or something like that.
Now I don`t know how to get that code and is there any way to try unlock bootloader and take a step forward?
Yas, we done step forward tomorrow because we know that PC see my device correctly,
we have good firmware but CMD commands caused another problem. :/

Due to the conditions your device is in,
I don't know if you can unlock the bootloader.
To read the code you can use DC-Unlocker
(PC or smartphone versions), buy credits for € 4 and try.
The risk is that if it doesn't work, you throw away your money.
A user HERE suggested the idea of using a method
a little more spartan and without money,
but honestly I have never tried it and you could physically break something ...
The choice remains yours, keep me informed for future developments.
P.S .: Bardzo dziękuję za opinię ...

Ciao!
I`ve tried to use this spartan method...but all that nordic combinations were useless...because I still have fake unlocked bootloader. I`ve decided that motherboard in my phone is a piece of **** and merda, so I`ll buy a little damaged phone. The cost of it is 27EUR, so it`s around DC-Unlocker+DC-Phoenix...but I`ll get a device that work properly and have some scratches.
I don`t want to spend money to my damage and dumping motherboard...because I have done this in the past 3 times (the cost of these repairs are around 60EUR). If I had enough knowledge that my motherboard will break down regularly in the future, I`ll buy used P9 Lite much much earlier.

[GUIDE] OnePlus 8 5G ..TMobile..(IN2017) bootloader unlock instant

Disclaimer
While I will assist with any issues resulting from this guide, I disclaim all responsibility and cannot be held accountable for any consequences caused by the use or misuse of this tool or process. This method also will wipe your phone, so please back up your data. I also will disclaim any understanding as to why exactly this works, since this method was developed by someone else, I am just listing the instructions on how to use it. With that being said, understand your personal limits and read this entire guide before starting.
Thanks to the attributed users at the end of this post, to find this method we are waiting for years...
METHOD 1:
Part 1: Requirements:
• To follow this guide you will need
A Windows PC
• Latest MsmDownloadTool for Oneplus IN2017 - Link
• Latest version of platform-tools - Link
• The bootloader unlock.ops file - Link
Plug your phone into your PC using a USB 2.0 port (this is important, USB 3.0 has given me a lot of issues and just doesn’t seem to work all the time) and ensure USB debugging is enabled.
Extract the downloaded platform-tools zip and open the platform-tools folder in a command prompt, and Run adb devices and makes sure your device appears in the list.
Next, extract the instantnoodlet_15_O.16_201001.zip and open up the MsmDownloadTool V4.0.exe inside the instantnoodlet_15_O.16_201001 folder.
When the application opens, select “Others” under the User type dropdown and hit next. Leave this window and the platform-tools command prompt open.
Part II: Entering Qualcomm EDL mode and installing correct QDLoader Driver
Part III: Flash Stock Firmware
In this section, we will flash the stock IN2017 Android 10 firmware.
Click the “Start” button in Msmtool. This will flash the stock firmware, wiping your data. Make sure you have backed your data up at this point. It will take a few minutes, usually ~300 seconds. Once it completes, it will reboot into factory default android 10.
Close MsmDownloadertool and once you are back to android, unplug your phone and power it off.
Part IV: Unlock the bootloader
In this section, we will flash the unlockable firmware and unlock the device for good.
1. Inside the directory with MsmDownloaderTool V4.0.exe, there should be a file called “instantnoodlet_15_O.16_201001.ops”. Remove it from the directory, either by deleting it or moving it to another folder. Then take the unlock.ops file downloaded earlier, and drag it into the directory and rename it to instantnoodlet_15_O.16_201001.ops . It should be in the same folder as MsmDownloaderTool.
2. Reopen MsmDownloaderTool V4.0.exe and like before, select “Others” in the drop down, and click next. Leave the window open.
3. Hold in the Volume up and down buttons, then plug your phone back in. Keep holding the buttons until your phone connects to your PC as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008", like before. Check device manager to ensure that it’s connected correctly as a COM port. If it boots to android, power it off and try again.
4. Return to MsmDownloaderTool. Make sure the phone is still displayed in the list under the associated COM Port.
5. Click start. The flashing should take about 15 seconds, and when complete, your phone should restart. It will display a message at boot saying “<!> The device is corrupt..” Do not panic, this is normal.
6. Unplug your phone and hold Volume Up, Volume Down and Power until the device reboots and let go once it shows the OnePlus Logo and “Fastboot Mode”. You should arrive at a screen that has “Start” in big green letters at the top, and “Fastboot mode” below it, with the very last item saying “Device state - Locked” in red text.
Plug your phone back into your computer.
7. Return to your command prompt window open in platform-tools, and run fastboot devices and ensure your device is in the list.
8. Finally, run the command "fastboot flashing unlock", it should prompt you to confirm unlocking the bootloader. Once complete, it should reboot into Android.
9. Shut the phone off again, and then Hold Volume Up, Volume Down, and Power and let go when the OnePlus logo and “Fastboot mode” shows up on screen. If the final item in the list says “Device State - Unlocked”, Congrats! You have successfully unlocked your bootloader. You can follow your custom OS’s installation guide from here.
If you want to flash back to stock firmware again (relock bootloader), you have to first flash this file (stock.ops) and then flash the bundled stock firmware. It will give a mismatch error if you do not.

So this is essentially the same as the IN2019 guide, just with the IN2017? Sounds neat.

yes. it works after I check allow oem unlocking before flashing the unlock.ops.
and dual sim works on oxygen 11, confirmed using my op 8 pro sim tray.
I see to prevent breaking the dual sim functionality, I have to use custom rom with magisk dual sim patch. But I see the custom roms are now based on oos 12. Can I flash oos 12 first and then to custom rom? will it break dual sim function?
