So I purchased Lenovo P2c72 4gb/64gb variant
bootloader cannot be unlocked , It needs you first to create a lenovo ID I created it , next it promots you to verify or bind your phone number.
I tried all virtual numbers from different countries and it didnt work.
Not even hong kong, it needs Chinese number only.
I'm on stock 6.0.1 , even after upgrading the phone to 7.0 , it still wont unlock bootloader unless you have a chinese phone number and verify it.
Is there any workaround this issue, or can anyone with chinese number help me with confirmation code.
Thanks
Seems like there is no solution, but to buy a chinese number then.
what no? I have a p2c72 and everything works.
Why can't you give your real number? It accepted mine.

Perhaps you should first let it update and convert itself to P2a42. I buy mine as P2c72, but after first boot, it updated and changed to P2a ...
Then I could request unlock

Hello, posting for a friend.
I think my friend purchased an H815T as when he received the phone the box had H815T on it. The seller is not accepting return because the model number in the phone says H815. However, when trying to unlock the bootloader via LG, it says ARROW(SINGAPORE) and that a bootloader unlock is not available for that phone.
Is there anyway to prove this phone has been flashed with H815 firmware to mask its true model number? I can't find any field test mode information that would bypass the firmware and give him a real answer. And IMEI lookup only shows H815 and not H815T, although I'm not sure it would differentiate anyway.
All help greatly appreciated!

Your model is H815. The model that available in Singapore is H815.
You can not unlock bootloader because LG unlocks only European H815 models
Most if not all g4 are coded h815. The regional difference comes after that will determine whether u can unlock or not and as my experience goes, the region code doesn't get specified on the g4 box. Unlike Samsung, lg doesn't distinguish different regions with different codes (like gt9300, gt9301 etc) , that how lg got me too. Shifty bastard. So u probably won't be able to get the seller to accept the return due to misleading description since it is indeed h815

Update 2: 3/11/2021 : I see maybe deleting the .ta files may help avoid soft bricking, feel free to try it I have not personally tested yet to see if it works.
Update#3 3/13/2021 : If you are following this guide recently make sure you update to Android 11 first! Do not do any updates after the first one to Android 11! Then the flashing should work just fine. Tested and verified this on Taiwan XQ-AT52 to 51 firmware
Hello, I've managed to successfully flash AT51 firmware on my AT52 without issue using Newflasher.
Step 1 download = the US firmware/ whatever region is needed for you and new flasher/ the sony xperia drivers needed to flash the firmware to your device. Extract it to your desktop. Install the Xperia driver from newflasher if you need to/ haven't yet. Newflasher needs to be extracted into the same folder where the firmware files are that you downloaded from Xperifirm. This step is crucial!
Step 2 : Power off your Xperia and put it in flash mode by pressing down on the volume and connecting it to your PC via usb. (Do not use the USB C cable that came with the phone use a different one if you have one) You'll know it is in flashmode if the notification LED turned green and the screen remains off.
Step 3 : Open newflasher.exe
Step 4: type n then press enter
Step 5: type n again and press enter
Step 6 : This is when you should get to the flashing stage. Press Y and enter to everything you are prompted to. type y for yes to. This for me resulted in a successful conversion over to AT51.
Step 7: Once everything is done and it says you are safe to disconnect your phone please do so and then press and hold your power button until the phone boots up.
At this point you should have a fully working AT51 firmware!
Bare with me as I"m working on getting developer access for androidfilehost and will upload the files asap. In the meantime you can download newflasher and the firmware files yourself using Xperifirm if you don't wanna wait for me to upload.

Can you tell me the model of your xperia phone? If you can still get it into flash mode when the notification LED turns green you may still be able to recover it.
Hi, I finally managed to restore it. I have to remove all the ta files to flash it, then it booted up.
Thanks for your respond.

I have using newflasher
After using 3 time xperia companion it work normal again
Hi, I didn't find this thread until after I made an attempt at flashing the device. I followed the instructions from the link below and ended up with the device saying it's corrupted.
https://www.xperiablog.net/2018/01/...-firmware-for-xperia-xz-premium-xz1-and-more/
I tried redownloading newflasher as well as redownloading the firmware I wanted as well as a new cable and that did not help. I reflashed it with this procedure listed above and it did not help.
Xperia companion won't let me do anything because it says the device is locked even though the device was not locked and there doesn't appear to be a way to unlock it. edited to add that I did get xperia companion to repair it successfully
edit again to advise I succeeded only after doing n and enter a third time then hitting y and enter for the final flashing step and that was successful in getting it updated correctly
Would it work to unlock my phone
Thanks for the guide!
Can I ask few questions please?
First is do I need to have my bootloader unlocked? I enabled OEM unlock setting in developer settings but that is only one thing I did.
And the second one is could this flash unlock my phone?
I am in this situation where my AT51 won't work with other sims except for Vodafone. UK.
I stayed with them for 30 days, (required time frame to get your phone unlocked) requested unlock code and it has been more than 10 working days but still have not received the code.
So today I did some searching online and found the service code to check if my phone is locked to a network and to my surprise it says it's not. So I am guessing that they have limited my phone to using only their sim through some other means andnot buy locking my modem. But this is ofc just a guess.
I kept chatting with the customer support and he keeps saying wait for the code which I do not believe is going to come, they have to unlock it on their end. But I am not sure about that. I don't think they are sure either..
Basically I'll wait fem more days maybe they will unlock it but if they won't when I am thinking maybe my modem is not locked and I could unlock it by flashing different ROM?
Or do you think this won't work?
Sorry for a rambling post. Looking forward to your reply. Thanks!

You do not need the bootloader unlocked as you are flashing official firmware.
Anyone know if you can flash a XQ-AT52 to a XQ-AT51 and then back to the XQ-AT52 firmware?
Sent from my XQ-AT52 using Tapatalk
I know this thread is a few months old at this point but I'm really struggling to flash to XQ-AT51. I've successfully flashed from XQ-AT52 Hong Kong (my original firmware) to the Taiwan version which is slightly better because of the messaging compatibility but I really want to get the US version. I have tried at least 20 times over the course of a full day and I have not been able to flash the US firmware without getting an error saying "Your device is corrupt It can't be trusted and will not boot" every time. I have repaired it back to the Hong Kong firmware (back when that was the one I had) and to the Taiwan version once I had that installed. But I have never gotten the US firmware to take without the "Device is corrupt" error.
My phone is the Sony xperia 1 mark 2 running the then default XQ-AT52 Hong Kong, and now running the default XQ-AT52 Taiwan. I've been trying to flash to XQ-AT51 US. I've been using newflasher v39 and the US firmware downloaded for xperifirm v 5.5.0.
So I was able to flash from the hong kong version to the Taiwan version and back with no issues at all. But I'm still unable to flash to the US version without the "Your device is corrupt It can't be trusted and will not boot" error that seems to happen every single time I try to install the US firmware.
Can someone make me a favor and can upload the latest ftf of Android 10 for the Xperia 1ii Single SIM?

The 1 II has downgrade protection, so as long as the firmware version of the US version isn't the same or newer than the highest version you've ever used you're gonna get the corruption error.
What you could try is flashing the newer EU version and then flashing only the older US customisation image. That's what I did for a while since US firmware was older than EU firmware, and it worked. Not sure if it'll work with Android 11.

It's for better coverage and for VoLTE and Wi-Fi calling support. Also if you get a HK one with Android 11 you will be unable to flash the US firmware, because it is still on Android 10; and the phone has anti-rollback protection.
it arrived on 10 still, but its bugging me to update.

Can anyone confirm that this process has to be done using USB 2.x? I've read in a separate post that newflasher isn't compatible with USB 3.x, which is currently what all my computer use. Also, should I be using the newest version newflasher?
EDIT: Tried on USB 2.0 and it worked perfectly.
Hello
I bought a used s9 a few months back. It had dual sim. In "about phone" it said G960F and was on android 9. A few days ago, I wanted to flash android 10 so I downloaded firmware for G960F, booted my phone in download mode and SURPRISE. The whole thing was in Korean and of course it was a G960N model. So I downloaded firmware for G960N this time and flashed it. Everything went perfect but when the phone booted up, It had no sim service.
I've tried everything I've found on the forums so far related to emergency calls only or no sim service.
Any kind of help would be appreciated. I have no sim service for 5 days now.
Things I've tried so far:
Flashing my phone again with android 9 stock firmware, which I can't do anymore as I've updated the bootloader lol.
Flashing custom roms
Changing csc from SKC to KOO
Flashing OXM CSC as I live in Pakistan
Flashing different modems and basebands
Nothing worked
Try flashing back a G960F android 10 firmware.

Done all of that. No luck
OK, let's go back to beginning: you've bought the used phone. 960F never was (as factory leaving) dual sim phone.
so, let's start from the beginning:
contact the seller and ask what the hell have you bought (if it was any variant of the S9 at all.. somehow I doubt it).
2nd: write down the IMEI and serial number, and check with Samsung if this configuration ever existed (if not, what I suppose, the IMEI/sn info about the REAL model can give you a hint what have you bought).
Having the above info in hands, find the "service firmware", 5 files ROM for your device and try to flash it.
If it will not work still, I'm afraid you have two options:
1. check IMEI against stolen devices with your carrier.
2. Go to Samsung service asking for help.

Well mostly it isn't a fake mediatek phone as it will not even have a download mode.
Probably he bought a shi**ily refurbished phone with it's internals mixed from multiple versions of the s9, in the best case.(a Frankenstein variant of the S9)

I'm going to solve this mystery for both of you. The phone he bought is indeed an S9. Here in Pakistan, 'software' guys in shops can convert these to dual sim models with some z3x and Chimera f*kery.
As for why his phone isn't working - it is because the phone had a tampered IMEI to bypass local custom charges levied on all imported phones (insane charges, doubles the price of these kinda phones). Once he flashed a new image on his phone, his IMEI status would have become NG instead of OK, which prevents the phone from accessing any networks.
Solution is to visit the same 'software' guys, ask them to 'patch' the phone. It is a 5 minute process, requires root (which these phones already have).

Hi guys just got a new phone supposed to be uk unlocked sim free brand new.but its weird
The service provider sw ver dont look english to me
SPR/XAA/VZW
I have my ee sim card inserted and it works to make calls. But there is a weird notification saying OMADM activation not completed
Also says LTE on the screen something I've never heard of or seen here in england we use 4g volte.so I'm confused also the software for uk phones are BTU/BTU/BTU OR XEU/XEU/XEU
And last the box is weird as it says unlocked by Samsung and has a warming saying reproductive harm I was thinking wtf is this phone.
Also it says Qualcomm on the top on a sticker,we use xenox version england
Ps I brought it from Amazon uk
none of it of sounds like a uk version. more like a us one.

Today, we'll explain Samsung CSC codes. Besides, we also have a list of CSC codes or region codes with a method to change CSC on Samsung.

Is it new?
Yes from amazon uk
So this phone cant be used here in England then other than making phone calls ?and how do I get uk firmware onto the phone?I'm a noob and not good with computers
Also changing the csc codes to uk what will that change?as we dont even have the snapdragon model in england?so would there even be uk firmware for an American phone?
Google tells me spr means sprint and that's the first code of the 3
Vzw looking on google means Verizon and that's the 3rd code so the phone was originally a Verizon locked phone.thats was unlocked and flashed with sprint fw, because the second csc code says xaa and apparently that means unlocked.
So what does this mean for me a uk user.luke I said in the uk our phones are BTU/BTU/BTU or XEU/XEU/XEU if there uk and unlocked

You cannot flash UK firmware on your US phone.
Just return it to Amazon, claim full refund as the product is not as advertised: no UK unlocked version, not new. Also screenshot in post #8 refers to firmware of a Note 9, not a Note 10 (N960 is Note 9), this makes this phone even more suspicious...
Return it. There's a lot of bs going on with sellers of this phone. This has gotten really bad. Amazon, saw some deceptive advertising there recently for this model and the N20U.
Best to contact the seller on the phone first; no phone contact, don't use. Make sure you are given full specs on their site and it's compatible with your country/provider.
Buy only a new one if possible. Used ones may be running on Android 11, you don't want that!
I was able to find a reliable US vender and got a new umlocked 10+ 256gb/12gb Snapdragon about a week ago for $800. It was as advertised except due to its manufacturing date is running on Q not Pie. It's a keeper.

Oh sorry it's a note 9 i apologise.so if I cant change it to a uk firmware is the phone useless to use in the uk other than to call people?because my sim card works to make calls
Also OMADM activation not completed message is pissing me off
What does it even mean.i think my phone has sprint firmware on it?how can I change it to normal unlocked firmware so it's nothing to do with sprint I cant stant that OMADM ITS MAKING ME MAD
And Verizon is what I think the phone was originally.
Last thing the phone was sold as brand new sealed but it's not even in the correct box the phone I have is 128gb not 512gb
And it had a sealed sticker saying euro sim only but the phone is American? I think the box is fake ?as it looks nothing like any note 9 box I've ever seen
I'm going to try and flash the phone the phone is currently csc SPR/XAA/VZW boot loader 5 I've just downloaded android 10 also on bootloader 5 ovbisly the XAA VERSION will it work or can I only download and flash SPR FIRMWARE?

It's not impossible but if you are not experienced with better get it back, it doesn't worth the try, you can end by messing up completely.
I've flashed phones many many times before normally when I update the fw via ota and then regret it and need to downgrade back .this phone I just flashed but the start button wouldn't work because I was trying to flash XAA VERSION and not the SPR VERSION .I guess if I was to follow a guide on changing the csc from SPR TO XAA then flashing will work but what the point i wanted a uk brand new factory sealed sim free handset like I paid for
So this pos phone can go back to the scammer on amazon.its a discrace they are making fake seals on the boxes.using fake accessories and lieing saying the phones are uk.the average person would fall for this lies because the phone is unlocked my uk sim will work but you get that OMADM pop up and it's a nightmare.plus I doubt half the functionality will even work.
Hi there, so about few months ago like back in August, I got myself an LG Wing after LG announced that they were going to close the mobile division. I live in Malaysia and I asked help from a friend in India to help me get one and send it over.
After getting it in my hands, and after I inserted the SIM, it says Network locked. I bought the phone unlocked but it turns out, the phone needs to be used with a SIM from the same country, perform a 30 minutes call and then it would become unlocked.
Given that I stay in Malaysia, its impossible for me to travel all the way to India to unlock a phone. That said, is there any way I could perform either one of the following?
- Get the Unlock Pin to be able to use with other network?
- Change the India Official ROM with a different country ROM perhaps?
Thanks!

Currently no method (yet) to unlock bootloader and install ROMs or GSI images, unless you get lucky like one member did here and get a demo model that's already bootloader unlocked from factory

What are the steps to root a demo model? I am thinking to buy a demo model. It seems cheap.

You don't, unless you hopefully get lucky and its factory bootloader unlocked. There's no way (yet) to unlock the bootloader to root every lg wing, demo or not
Don't buy a demo model unless its just a phone to play with. Not a good every day use phone
