What is the last possible firmware version that can have the bootloader unlocked?
i saw in Funkyhuawei they can up to 10.0.0.8 in Europe.
I guess if a phone has gone all the way up to 10.0.0.154 with security patch Oct 2019 it cannot be unlocked any more. Correct?
I need this info to decide whether to buy a 2nd hand phone or not.
Any help will be welcome.
You can not unlock any version for now.

Hello, I just got a s8plus tmobile version.
Do I need to unlock the bootloader?
Is it even unlockable?
Nope
Thanks, Will need to wait till we find away
Is there a way to root the phone with the more recent updates? I never got the bootloader unlocked before they locked it for good
You only can root if ur bootloader is unlocked.
Since August patch, you cant unlock ur bootloader. You need to downgrade ur phone to pre august.
But your bootloader stays unlocked if you update to newer versions

Is there a way to downgrade without an unlocked bootloader? I see one firmware thread, but it says it requires an unlocked bootloader.
I'm quite fed up with the aggressive task killer Nokia piled into the TA-1045, but without root I can't seem to remove or even stop it.

You can bring ur phone to the service center or you can downgrade using ntool. But it is payed only.
Hi guys,
I have an AT&T G8, network unlocked, and running the July 2020 Patch (G820UM20r). My question is: Is it possible to unlock its bootloader without having to brick it? My goal is to crossflash it in order to get recent updates, etc.
Additionally, after crossflash, can the boot loader be relocked to get DRM widevine level L1 ?
Bootloader is not eligible for unlock (not at all surprised) for the XT2075-2. Has anyone found a way to unlock the bootloader or generate a bootloader unlock key (even if it is a paid service)? Worst case, it would be nice if there was a root exploit that could be used.
Well this is frustrating. I bought the unlocked version xt-2075-3, but received the ATT version (xt2075-2) It appears the unlocked version doesnt have 5G for USA anyway... So I am ok with the ATT version... But youre saying I cant root this thing? Wtf?
as stated in the title on my s20 plus (SM-G968W) there is no toggle for OEM Unlock, its been a long time since ive tried to root and from what ive been able to pick up from googling is it may not be supported for my country or cpu manufacturer. ive tried the change date and time trick that every guide suggested and it did nothing.

What is your baseband version?
If I recall correctly, you must be on v1 bootloader (pre Mar 2021 security update) in order to be able to unlock.
See this thread on how to unlock the bootloader (paid service):

i cant downgrade to the original bootloader?
I do not believe that it will allow you to downgrade from A13 to A11. You could try and flash G986WVLU1CTLB (A11) via the patched Odin, but no guarantees. It may also wipe your phone, so make sure that you backup before you try.
