First of all usb debugging should be on in phone (settings>about> tap multiple times on build number to unlock developer option> now go to settings>developer option> set usb debugging on). And don't forget to backup your data (contacts,messages,photo,video etc.)
#STEP 1 : INSTALLATION OF ADB DRIVERS:
Download the adb drivers and follow the method shown in this video www.youtu.be/RDA8PpPSFuk
#STEP 2 : GETTING THE UNLOCK CODE FOR BOOTLOADER :
u will need these
1. IMEI-1
2.S/N (serial number) ...These both are found on removing backcover,written on unremovable battery.
3.PRODUCT ID (Dial *#*#1357946#*#*)
4.MODEL (settings>about)
Get bootloader unlock code on huawei website. www.emui.huawei.com/en/
go to download tab>unlock bootloader>register to make account or sign in with facebook id.
After entering the details of phone you will get 16 digit bootloader unlock code. save it.
#STEP 3 : UNLOCKING THE BOOTLOADER :
Download the adb & fastboot folder.
Connect phone to computer in fastboot mode (switchoff>press & hold volume down key and connect to usb cable>phone will vibrate>release the volume key).
Now open the command window in adb & fastboot folder (Open adb & fastboot folder > Press and hold the Shift key and press right click on mouse to open option menu and select "Open Command Window Here").
In command window type "fastboot oem unlock 11111111111111" (without quotation, where 1111111111111111 is the unlock code you got from huawei site) and press enter. (do not delete anything in command window, start typing from just where the cursor is showing). This will do the unlocking of bootloader.
Now type in command window "fastboot reboot" to reboot the phone. After rebooting, unplug the phone from computer.
#STEP 4 : ROOTING THE PHONE :
I have tried several methods but no one succeed. I tried rooting through kingroot phone app but that too failed. But I rooted my phone successfully with kingroot desktop software (download it from www.kingroot.net ). There is no need to install superSU after rooting through kingroot.
#STEP 5 : FLASHING CUSTOM RECOVERY (TWRP) :
Download the new_lp_twrp_recov.img file and keep it inside adb & fastboot folder. Connect phone to computer in fastboot mode. open command window and type "fastboot flash recovery new_lp_twrp_recov.img". Recovery will be flashed. Now enter command "fastboot reboot" to reboot the phone.

Thanks for sharing process to root EMUI3.1 on CHE1-L04.
Just a suggestion, mention [OPTIONAL] in-line with Step-5. As many people visit here mainly to know Rooting method.
Also it would be great, if you can share StockRecovery image and Kitkat EMUI3.0 Rom! Thanks again.

Thank you
My Remix Ultratablet current running 2.0.305 keep random restart everyday.
So I wish to downgrade to OS 1.5
I ask for help form office Jide support , they told me I need to
Q1) Problem # stuck on step #1 already , When I ask where is the Remix Ultratablet driver when I install adb and fastboot ? Offical jide support told me I don't need a driver? How so ?
I can't get the tablet connect ??
Note: 1, I connect the tablet with USB to PC
Note: 2, I turn the USB debugging option on Tablet already.
Note: 3, I Test it on pc adb folder by trying "fastboot devices" only get "Waiting for Device" error
Q2) I also try other method (Power key + Volume up) on tablet which show
"Continue
Fastboot Protocol
Recovery Kernel
Reboot
Poweroff
Forced Recovery"
But when i press"Fastboot Protocol" , doesn't do anything ?
For your references:
Steps of instruction I receive from Jide offical support so far....
1) have ADB and Fastboot running, I download the Minimal ADB and Fastboot[/URL])
2)Download Remix OS 1.5 ROM[/URL]
3) Unzip the downloaded zip file ( SK1WG.zip ) and go to the folder
4. Connect the Remix to the computer via USB.
Make sure the fastboot binary is in your PATH ) or that you place the recovery image in the same directory as fastboot.
6. Open a terminal on your PC and reboot the device into fastboot mode by typing adb reboot bootloader or by using the hardware key combination for your device while it is powered off.
7. 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 "", fastboot is not configured properly on your machine. See fastboot documentation for more info.
-If you see "no permissions fastboot", make sure your UDEV rules are setup correctly.
8. Clean the existing data by entering the following command: fastboot -w
9. Flash images onto your device by entering the following three commands:
-fastboot flash system system.img
-fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
-fastboot flash boot boot.img
10. Once the flash completes successfully, run the following command to reboot the device into recovery to verify the installation.
-fastboot reboot

That makes no sense what so ever.
Maybe it would be better to ask what platform he is using to flash his device with, as the instructions he has copy and pasted refer to Linux (udev rules)
it makes sense to me cause you have download the correct Android SDK to work on certain Android platforms.
https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platforms.html
To compile your application against a particular version of Android, you must use the SDK Manager to download and install the SDK Platform for that release.

when you turn it on,it seems you do not have the minimum knowledge required to flash a device... you should stay away from downgrading it or study adb and fastboot videos and tutorials on google and youtube before doing anything.if you do anything wrong and brick your device,the warranty will not work,any bad flash could void your device warranty.

The following link contains images and details on to root and install TWRP

Have you tried this...
fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX563J
< waiting for device >
Ok guys, unlocking the bootloader of the ' Nubia Z17 Lite' freaks me out!!! Tried to unlock it for the last 14 hours!!!
This is what I did to unlock the phone:
1) Downloaded en tried all possible drivers (including ADB Fastboot driver from 'https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790').
2) Ticked ' ENABLE OEM UNLOCK' in the developer option screen.
3) Ticked ' ENABLE USB DEBUGGING'
4) Ticked the popup that says: 'give authorization debugging' .
5) Unzipped "platform tools in a map and unzipped the file 'twrp-nx591j-test06.img' in the same map (see picture below)
6) Shift+right click to open the 'PowerShell window' (same as cmd)
7) Typed: adb devices
PowerShell says now:
PS C:\Users\Dem\Downloads\Nubia\platform-tools_r28.0.0-windows\platform-tools> adb devices
List of devices attached
d366eaed device
8) Typed in PowerShell: adb reboot bootloader
Phone starts now in the ' Bootloader Menu' (see picture below)
9)Typed in PowerShell: fastboot devices
PowerShell says now: PS C:\Users\Cem\Downloads\Nubia\platform-tools_r28.0.0-windows\platform-tools> fastboot devices
(nothing happened)
10) Typed in PowerShell: fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX591J
PowerShell says now: PS C:\Users\Cem\Downloads\Nubia\platform-tools_r28.0.0-windows\platform-tools> fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX591J

11) I scolded to the phone.
Nothing seems to be working to unlock the bootloader. What the f* did I do wrong!?
My OS: Windows 10, 64bit.
SOLVED!!!
Just check this thread.

Not far away, a planet nearby...
After some research, apparently, there is no longer any free way to unlock the bootloader....
So I went to the cash register hoping it would be reliable XD.
For information, I still contacted nokia support
Dear,
Greetings from Nokia mobile care!
Regarding to your question I would like to inform you that it was only available for a brief period of time and is currently unavailable.

Bootloader of my successfully unlocked Nokia 6.0 !
I just had a driver problem on my computer.
If you are in the same case, my problem has been solved by installing "OST tool" :

run the "launcher.exe" and restart computer
Thanks Techmesto for the key.

Hello, for the key, I had to buy it on techmesto (thanks to him for the tutorial)
regarding instructions :
Grab the June 2018 OTA file from here => https://android.googleapis.com/pack.../2a84fb0cddebb6ed79e18735740c7386ebd4be1f.zip
Download the full firmware for Nokia 6 => https://drive.google.com/open?id=1twEoVIImRHeFdJ6OQSG4tfkEvtrY_0uJ
Download and install the NOST Tool => https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...t-improved-version-ost-la-6-0-4-v0-4-t3875574
Download and install OST Tool => https://drive.google.com/open?id=1-iwfKu7PHygVV5Ok4_lSibCW4ATeFpBu
(about me, it solved the problem of unrecognized devices)
On your device, go into Settings -> About and find the Build Number and tap on it 7 times to enable developer settings. Press back and go into Developer Options and enable USB debugging.
Connect the phone to the usb port
Copy June 2018 OTA file to SD Card
You will need the platform-tools from the Android SDK on your computer ==> https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
Or use Minimal ADB ==> https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
On the computer, navigate to ADB’s folder and open a Command Prompt and type:
Code:
adb devices
check if the device is detected correctly
Code:
adb reboot recovery
If you see a “No Command” screen ==> Press and hold Power key and quickly press and release the Volume Up key
Select apply update from SD card and select the update file (June 2018 OTA)
When the update gives an error, reboot to bootloader by selecting the option from recovery mode
Code:
fastboot devices
check if the device is detected correctly
Now use the unlock key to unlock. Do normal unlock and also critical unlock.
Code:
fastboot flash unlock UnlockFile.bin
(UnlockFile.bin = name of the dedication key you purchased and it's easier to place it in the same folder as platform-tools)
Code:
fastboot oem unlock-go
fastboot flash unlock UnlockFile.bin
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
fastboot reboot
If it doesn't reboot, open NOST and flash the full firmware (nb0)
Warning: the battery must be sufficiently charged for NOST

sorry for taking so long in getting bk to u i decided to get rid of this device and got a pixel 3 xl thanks.
stupid Nokia, why bother rooting this with a pay service!
and a bunch of instruction, waste of time!
I own a xiaomi 9 se for unlocking BL just take a week, oneplus 6 just need a second!
I'm not saying anything about techmesto, but I do not know them. Man, do you know the damage someone can do with an IMEI and S/N? Damn Nokia.

Thanks for the super indepth guide! I've been waiting for years now for HMD to release the bootloader unlock tool for the OG phones, but that's clearly never gonna happen. Techmesto charges 8 dollars for the key and the downgrade + unlock, but 5 dollars for just the key. So I think I'll follow your guide to downgrade and then purchase the key from them afterwards.
I have a brand new Oneplus 8 Pro from China with global ROM installed.
I wanted to unlock the bootloader however there is no fastboot option in the boot menu.
There is Start, Restart Bootloader, Recovery and Turn Off.
The Fastboot option is missing.
I can connect the phone to my PC, adb recognizes the phone, but Fastboot is missing.
Any ideas?

Sure. You are allready in that mode. Just type fastboot devices and check..
I did that but no response.
The cursor jumps to the next line but there is no response from the phone.
If I type adb devices the phone is listed but the fastboot command doesn't return anything.

Restart to bootloader, then fastboot should work. If your phone is still on, and you can access adb, you should also be able to type adb reboot bootloader
Thanks.
So apparently the command "fastboot devices" returns nothing.
However I was able to unlock the bootloader just by entering "adb reboot bootloader" then
"fastboot oem unlock".
What confused me was that there is no "fastboot" option on the phone itself as there was on my Oneplus 5t.

The option in the power menu is called bootloader (fastboot only will work there) the hint was in the adb command I gave you, adb reboot BOOTLOADER. Not sure why they changed what the menu was called but I'm glad you got it sorted. To give you a short summary, adb will only work when your phone is powered on and booted into android, or if you have recovery mode open and on the adb section, and fastboot only works in the bootloader hope that could help!
Edit: fastboot devices should work but only in bootloader mode, not when your phone is started normally

You have to insert a SIM card, boot of the device and make a phone call to get it to register your device. Wait a few minutes and then restart your phone. Go into settings under about phone and enable developer options. Back out and go into developer options and you will see OEM unlock. You need to turn that on and USB debugging. Both of them must be turned on. Now you can boot into fastboot and unlock your bootloader. It will wipe the device so if you have any data you want to save you better do it now.
hey i am having this issue, i am able to adb reboot bootloader but when i try to oem unlock or anything else, it is just waiting for device and not finding it....

That's a driver issue.
Are you using Windows 7? If so use 10
If not then sort out your driver's and it'll be fine.
Theres a bug in 7 where the driver for ADB cannot be collaborated with fastboot drivers.

thanks for the reply, i am on windows 10 and i dont know what is causing the issue when the phone goes in fastboot, but i went on my wife's laptop and got it working within a few minutes after installing adb...
Having similar problem here:
win10x64, drivers installed, USB debugging is enabled.
ADB sees the devices, reboots it correctly with "adb reboot bootloader"
then bootloader menu's shown:
START // RESTART BOOTLOADER // RECOVERY MODE // SHOW BARCODE // POWER OFF
Fastboot mode
Product_name - kona
Variant - SM8 UFS
BOOTLOADER VERSION - (nothing appears here)
BASEBAND VERSION - (nothing appears here)
Serial number - (appears 8-symbol sn)
SECURE BOOT - YES
DEVICE STATE - LOCKED
trying to communicate with smartphone via terminal "fastboot" command doesn't do much:"fastboot devices" doesn't return anything at all, "fastboot oem unlock" just shows <waiting for device>
tried to reinstall drivers

If you type fastboot reboot what happens? If nothing then either you're device doesn't have usb debugging on, could be the cable/usb slot (some people have had issues with this)
Or its the driver installed for fastboot.
Show hidden devices in device manager you may have multiple devices, remove them all and start over.
Your also need to have used ADB and have trusted the device (prompt will appear on your phone the first time you connect it successfully whilst in your phones system, not fastboot)
for windows 10:
firstly download the google adb driver:
Get the Google USB Driver | Android Studio | Android Developers
The Google USB Driver is required to perform adb debugging on Windows with Google devices.
developer.android.com
then do the following:
1. adb devices [you should see your device ] > adb reboot bootloader
2. device manager > update driver > chose from list [android device]
3. still in device manager got the newly populated Android device and then update driver > choose adb interface
3. fastboot oem unlock
etc.
hope this helps

Secure Boot means your Bootloader is locked.
Setup fastboot correctly, open a cmd window, navigate to fastboot.exe and enter fastboot oem unlock, follow instructions on phone screen
