After 7 days of not turning off the device there is no OEM Unlock option running SD S9 Sprint. As I type, update time: 170:26. Any clues on why the option has not appeared mahalos
edit: so I've did some research and no oem unlock option for snapdragons is because their being locked down sad to say.

Soooo, after enabling dev options and enabling oem unlock. download mode wont allow me to unlock the bootloader itself, theres no option for volume up to unlock. Any ideas / work arounds
If you recently got your phone there may be the 7 day block on it. Which basically disables you from unlocking the phone for 7 days. There is a workaround though where you set the time 8 days behind, check for update, restart the phone, change the time back to the correct time, and then oem unlock should be available under Developer Options!
my phone samsung a50 is stuck on boot logo (SAMSUNG), flashing, wipe data reset, but it cant. Same problems stuck on samsung logo. How did i fix?
Another thing to note is that phones in America likely have locked bootloaders, especially ones on Verizon. If you have a device from a US carrier other than that it should be fine...

If your phone is a US Variant (your phone model number: SM-A505U) then it can't be unlocked. I'm guessing your's is the SM-A505U?
I'm trying to get oem unlocking to show up in Developer Options but am not having any luck. It's a Samsung Galaxy Note 10 + running Android 10. It's the 256gb aura glow color if that matters. Anyways I've had it turned on for 170+ hours without rebooting it. Yet I still don't see any mention of oem unlocking in Developer Options. Did I miss a step? I see some people mentioning stuff to do with changing the time and stuff and I tried that in the past with no success. I just tried to check for software updates then went back to developer options and still don't see anything about oem unlocking. I have put the phone in airplane mode a few times so could that be it?
What is the criteria or whatever you need to do to get oem unlocking to show up?
It's not rooted and I currently have had it on for over 168 hours and tried checking for software update by going to settings>software update>download and install.
Help? Thank you

What is your model number? N975(?)
SM-N975U
Your not doing anything wrong and there is nothing you can do.
The SM-N975U and SM-N975U1 do not provide us with the ability to unlock our bootloader. This means we will not be given the OEM Unlock option.
But isn't unlocking bootloader part of rooting? Or is there a way around that? I mean I don't absolutely have to root it but I thought it would be cool to have the option. What's so different about this one that I can't be given the oem unlock option? Sorry if I sound irritated.. I am but not at anyone on here
Also I got this through us cellular. Maybe should have just bought it through Samsung? Model number would probably be different and would probably be able to get oem unlocking option
You should do a little more research. None of the US snapdragon Note10's are bootloader unlockable and hence, are not rootable. Doesn't matter where you purchased it. As far as I know, this is the case for all Samsung phones sold in the US and has been the case for quite a long time.

No US versions of the Note 10+ can be OEM unlocked or rooted. Does not matter if you bought it from Samsung carrier unlocked or from a service provider. Carrier versions are SM-N975U and unlocked version is SM-N975U1. It has been a very long time since you could root a Samsung US device. I believe the S6 or S7 were the last rootable Galaxy phones in the US. The Note 8 could be rooted with an engineering kernel but it was more of a hack since you could not fully charge the phone.
Please help me, my Samsung s10e (G970U1) wants to unlock the bootloader. In the "Developer" option, I did not select the "Unlock OEM" option
Yeah, well, I too have a G970U1 running Android 10 and I want to unlock the bootloader and install TWRP and root it. Well, unlocking the bootloader seems to be impossible. "OEM Unlocking" doesn't appear in Developer Options. I've been through all of the published time-shift tricks to get the OS to think that more than 7 days have passed since the machine went live. And, I've let it just wait for more than 7 days a couple of times. No joy. No OEM Unlocking nohow. No other way I've found yet to get the bootloader unlocked.
Any help? Please?
and Thanks!
Hey i need help
Bought a s20+ 5g *SM-G986B/DS* like two weeks ago, tried date changing with no luck so i waited, but theres no OEM unlock even 2 weeks after :/
So i did factory reset, nothing
Tried flashing combination file with error *Please get approval to use factory binary (Pit)*
still no OEM unlock HALP!
have you connect to WIFI ?
All the time, today is the 20th day and still no OEM unlock toggle.
I did heavy debloat thru ADB first week but i did factory reset later that day. Maybe i confused knox :/ Im desperate.
Gonna try fastboot OEM unlock.
BUMP
still no OEM unlock
OEM on (L) in download mode
successfully changed CSC with samkey though
gave up and bought an s22+, rooted it the first day
anyone knows if this model bootloader could be unlocked?
The w22 is just the "new" Chinese variant of the fold 3 that has 16gb ram. So it should be unlockable. If you don't have the developer option to toggle oem unlock, you might have to wait 7 days for it to become available
And if you are asking if it can be unlocked AND have the cameras still work, no idea at this time.
