Hi All,
We all know that unlocking the bootloader resets the device to factory defaults which means you loose installed apps, their settings and user data. Reconfiguring the device(system apps), installing user apps and transferring the userdata back to the phone can be lengthy process. It will also result in unnecessary usage of your wi-fi and/or mobile data and which can be quite expensive (as updated versions of user and systems app, need to be installed again)
So in order to bypass the above issues, follow the following steps:-
Step 1 - Take a full dump of your ROM using SP Flashtool's readback method. Go to readback tab, create a new item and put the following start address and length values :-
Start address would be 0x0
length of the dump file would be 0x3A3E00000 (Lenovo K4 Note only)
Start the process, it will take around one hour to complete depending on the speed of your computer. The dump would be 15 GB file, so ensure you have space.
Step 2:- Unlock the bootloader now
Firtst enable the developer option menu if not already enabled by doing the following steps
a. go to "about phone"-->"Build number"
b. tap it 7 times, you will get a message that "your are a developer now"
c. Go back to about menu, click on newly visible "developer options" and enable "OEM unlocking", ignore the warning. Scroll down and enable "usb debugging"
Open command prompt and enter fastboot mode by issuing the command
"adb reboot bootloader"
Once in the fastboot mode, issue the command "fastboot oem unlock" and follow the on screen instructions to unlock the bootlaoder
3. Now reboot the phone and configure the initial steps. As of this step user data and apps are lost, system apps are reset to factory defaults, but don't worry we have a backup (created in step one). Once done power off your device.
4. Now comes the real part. Launch SP Flash tool and create the dump of the following partitions (You create the dump file in the same manner you have created the full ROM dump file in step 1. The difference would be the values of start address and the length of individual partitions, which you can get from the scatter file).
1. Boot
2. Secro
3. Seccfg
For safety purpose i suggest to also take the backup of the following partitions
1. preloader (you can also flash preloader from stock rom)
2. lk
3. recovery (this is stock recovery with unlocked bootloader)
4. nvram
5. tee1
6. tee2
Till date I haven't has a need to use the above mentioned 6 partitions, so it's your call
Once done, power off and disconnect your phone.
5. Now enter advanced write mode in SP Flashtool (ctrl+alt+v), then open write tab from windows menu item.
Select the ROM dump file you created in step 1, put the start address as 0x0.
Once the process is started, it will take roughly an hour to complete. Disconnect the phone and reboot. Power off the phone once again.
6. Your SP Flashtool write tab is still open, if you have closed the application then relaunch the flash tool and again enable advanced write mode. Now one by one write the partitions images(dump files only boot, secro and seccfg needed) created in step 4. Use scatter file for start address.
7. Reboot your phone.
Congratulations your phone is up and running with unlocked bootloader, rooted and/or twrp custom recovery (if you chose to install it in the first place itself) and all data preserved
You can verify whether your bootloader is indeed unlocked by entering in fastboot mode and executing the command "fastboot getvar all"). You should see the values of the variables
unlocked - yes
secure - no
The first boot might take a litter longer so be patient.
Once you have an unlocked bootloader you can install custom recovery and root your phone.
I think this method should be working on any mediatek chipset based smartphones.
Note:
1. Although till date I haven't had any issues with this method, but follow the tutorial at your own discretion. I am not responsible for any damage caused to your phone by following the above mentioned procedure.
2. Sometimes while trying to perform more than one operations at a time, like you will need to perform write memory operation 3 times since unlike readback operation you can only write one image at a time in sp flashtool, you may get the following error "ERROR: S_BROM_CMD_STARTCMD_FAIL", if that is the case then try the following steps
1. Simply pull out the usb cable at the phone end, close the dialog box and try again. If not resolved after trying 2-3 then step 2
2. Restart the application and repeat the write process. If the problem is still not resolved then step 3
3. Reboot the machine, relaunch the app and repeat the write process.
I don't know why this happens but my guess is it has something to do with cpu cycles allocation causing the delay in usb signalling since SP Flash tool is a single threaded application. So for the best results try to ensure sp flashtool is the only application opened on your machine.
If you use other applications, most of the time you will get through but you will notice significant slowdown during the read and write operations especially during reading and writing full ROM dumps.
Thanks
Thank you for your effort, but I lost you in step 4, how to create dump file using SP

Hi,
You create the dump file in the same manner you have created the full ROM dump file in step 1. The difference would be the values of start address and the length of individual partitions, which you can get from the scatter file.
You can add multiple entries in the readback tab.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any trouble.
Thanks.

At the moment you decide to continue with this Tutorial, you become absolutely responsible for what happens with your Mobile and your actions. Please proceed with caution and do not play chingon.
HERE THE ODYSEA BEGINS!
<<< UNLOCK BOOTLOADER >>>
IMPORTANT:
To know the Model Number & IMEI:
Enter Settings> About Phone.
To Know the Serial Number:
Enter Settings> About Phone> Status
To Know Product ID:
Enter this code: "* # * # 1357946 # * # *" on the telephone dial (without quotes), the number that appears, is the PRODUCT ID.
You can Obtain the Code to unlock the Bootloader in the following ways:
Following in the footsteps of EloyGomez Video Tutorial:
Https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVmAEQjOnNQ
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Following the Steps of the Screenshots having already a previous orientation with the Video of EloyGomez:
Https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/+JohnMillerDev7/albums/6305181114976401569
Using "Huawei Product ID Generator", and following the instructions (I recommend copying the data obtained in a notebook and saving them, you never know when you may need them again):
Download "Huawei Product ID Generator", extract it wherever you like and run it. (It's a very simple program).
Product Model: HUAWEI Y300-0000 (select that model).
Product IMEI / MEID: "Here they place their IMEI / MEID".
Product ID: "Here you generate the Product ID automatically according to the Product model & product IMEI / MEID that they placed above, and it is the one they should use on the page"
Go to the Huawei page to unlock Bootloader, either the English version or the Chinese version, the only thing that changes is the language. You can try with all 2 pages.
They create an account so they can log in, they can also log in with Facebook, it's very simple.
Once you have created your account and logged in, we will see the page to obtain the unlock code.
Fill in the fields with the data that we are requested and we will put the following:
Product type: Smartphone
Product model: HUAWEI Y300-0000 (If it does not work for them, try all the models that are in the generator) (Also try with CAPITAL & lowercase).
Product Serial number: You get it in Settings> About Phone> Status> Serial Number.
Product IMEI: You get it in Settings> About Phone> Status> IMEI.
Product ID: They get it with the "Huawei Product ID Generator" (the one that generated the program a while ago).
They place the Captcha that asks them for the page and they press Submit or Submit, they must give them the Code of Unlock for the Bootloader, they copy it in the scrapbook (that I suppose they must take).
Now go to Settings> About Phone and click on "Compilation" several times until the message "now you are a developer" is muted, you return to Settings and you will see the "Developer Options" tab, enter there, if the options are not active Of developer because they activate them, now they move a little down and activate "Depuracion USB".
Download the program "UNLOCK BOOTLOADER HUAWEI", Extract where you like, then connect your phone to the PC and run "UNLOCK THE BOOTLOADER.bat".
Already the rest is eaten, just follow the instructions that will indicate the program, the ADB & HiSuite Drivers will be installed (At most, they will only have to accept the terms, press next and finish), the Telephone will restart a few Sometimes do not worry or despair do not panic, it will be normal to restart.
When they have unlocked the Bootloader they can disconnect the Phone from the PC and turn it off.
Now let's check that everything went well, we kept pressing "Vol-" and at the same time we connected it to the PC, they will see a white screen with some letters (that is the Fastboot mode), and if they see the text "PHONE UNLOCKED" Congratulations, you have unlocked the bootloader correctly.
Make a beer, a soda, a Pau-Pau or Commit a Bread to celebrate, but do not get so excited because this is only the beginning, we still have a way to go, but certainly This is the most important step of all, Since without having the Bootloader unlocked it is not at all advisable to make Root to the phone, to install a recovery or to install a custom Rom, Those that use KingRoot for that after that they appear rare errors to them and even it damages them the telephone.

<<< CONVERT L23 IN L21 >>>
(If they already reached this step means that they are already Pros .... hahahaha not true, they believed it!, Keep reading!)
At this point what we will do first is to install the Recovery TWRP and make the Wipes Complete with the purpose of Erase the system and leave the Phone blank to make a Installation much Cleaner and without possible errors. To do this we follow the following instructions:
PS: They can install the Twrp that like V2 or V3, the procedures are the same, only slightly changes the interface.
Instructions for both versions:
Download INSTALAR RECOVERY TWRP (V2 or V3) HUAWEI P8 LITE.rar
Download adb-setup-1.4.3.rar
Unzip adb-setup-1.4.3.rar and run the program. (This is to install adb drivers and the pc can detect the terminal.)
You will see a blue console screen, type "and" or "accept" at all and close the window. If you ask them to restart the pc, do it and that's it.
Start your Phone in Fastboot mode; Switch off the phone and press the "vol-" key and without releasing it connect it to the PC until the Fastboot screen appears.
Unzip "INSTALL RECOVERY TWRP (V2 or V3) HUAWEI P8 LITE.rar" and execute the file "INSTALL RECOVERY TWRP (V2 or V3) HUAWEI P8 LITE.bat" and follow the steps.
It will not take more than 5 minutes just to press ENTER.
Turn off Cell Phone and Start in Recovery Mode TWRP (Vol + & Power), Press WIPE, Advanced Wipe and make the complete wipes:
You must dial:
Dalvik
Cache
Data
Internal storage
System
IMPORTANT !: Do not check "micro sdcard".
Go back to Menu, press Reboot, and then Bootloader.

Once the above is done correctly, we continue to move our P8 Lite L23 to L21, I recommend you remove your SD Card and SIM Card as a precaution. Follow the instructions:
Download "FlashRom C432B052 (Lollipop 5.0, EMUI 3.1) Dual Sim Transition", extract it wherever you like, start your phone in Fastboot mode, connect it to the PC, execute the file "FLASH-ALL.bat" (do not execute it with permissions Administrator), and follow the instructions given to you by the program.
When the process ends, the phone will start with the new system, if you go to "About the phone" it will say "Balong". To remove that you must install Step2.
Download "Step2", extract it, look for the file "UPDATE.APP" and copy it to the "DLOAD" folder of your SD Card, if you do not have it then create it. (It is clear that you must first insert the SD into the phone).
Then go to Settings> Updater> Menu> Local Update and select the UPDATE.APP (Step2). The phone will restart, the installation will begin and wait for it to finish. When you start the system and check in "About the phone" you will no longer say Balong, but L21.
After this it is recommended to do a factory reset, first remove your SD card, then go to "Settings> Security> Backup and Restore" or type in the search bar of "Backup and Restore" settings, press "Reset factory data "Check" Clear internal memory ", click on" Reset "and wait for the process to finish. If for some reason "Failed" does not worry, it only restarts, the cell will have been reset anyway, do not worry if you do not have a signal or it does not detect the SIM, that is fixed by installing the next update.
Congratulations, you've already passed your cel to L21!

<<< UPDATE ANDROID 6 OFFICIAL >>>
The update order is as follows: "B052> B560> B564> B574> B584> B594> B596> B598> or" B552> B570> B560> B560> B564> B574> B584> B594> B596> B598 ".
Being already in the B052 we only have to download the following Compilations and go updating via local:
"B552> B570> B560> B564> B594> B594> B594> B596> B598 'or' B552> B570> B560> I recommend that for every update they make, make a factory reset to avoid possible errors, this is optional after all, I only make the recommendation from their own experience.
Download the B170, extract the files, Copy the UPDATE.APP to the DLOAD folder of your SD, go to Settings> Updater> Menu> Local Update and select the UPDATE.APP, the phone will restart, the installation will begin and wait for To finish.
Now on the B170, Repeat the previous step to install the B550 or B560 Compilation. (Depending on the order of updating mentioned above, that works best for them or decide to take)
Now when they are in the B560 we go to the B564 but the option of "Local Update" will no longer appear, so we have 2 options to carry out the update: (they should already have the UPDATE: APP previously copied in the DLOAD, The update.app is always due to copying to Dload there is no other):
Option 1:
Write the following code in the calls app "* # * # 2846579 # * # *" (without quotes obviously).
The famous hidden menu will appear, click on "Software Upgrade"> "SDCard Upgrade"> you will receive an "Are you Sure" message, press OK, start the update and wait for it to finish.
Option 2:
While the Cel is off or on, press the keys (Vol-, Vol +, Power) until you see the update screen and wait for the process to finish.
And that would be Todo, Felicidades ya habras updated Your phone to Android 6!
If you've already come up here means you're half Pro.

will this allow me for ota updates??
Is there any guide to restore serial number ?
@ yourkk Could you please explain this "this rom is not meant for daily uses so flash any fastboot rom now." Do you mean that after your steps, mobile should be booting to fastboot and then stock firmware can be flashed?

Hello I formated the flash of my redmi 6 using sp flash tool and now my bootloader is locked sadly when I tried to unlock it my sim is not working due to no imei soo does anyone know how to fix this issue. Soo does anyone have a way to repair the...
forum.xda-developers.com
And I found a fix
Requirements--
1) Mtk-SU Easy https://github.com/JunioJsv/mtk-easy-su
2) This Version of MIUI
Redmi 6 https://bigota.d.miui.com/V11.0.2.0...XM_20200102.0000.00_9.0_global_5bc2bc0cf8.tgz
Redmi 6A
https://bigota.d.miui.com/V11.0.2.0.PCGMIXM/cereus_global_images_V11.0.2.0.PCGMIXM_20200102.0000.00_9.0_global_5bc2bc0cf8.tgz
3) A backup of your NVDATA or any IMEI changing app I don't really know the rules here about such apps soo do a little bit of googling (NOTEONT CHANGE IMEI ONLY PUT THE ORIGINAL IMEI OF YOU DEVICE)
4)SP-Flash Tool
ONE THING IF YOU HAVE UNLOCKED BL JUST GO AHEAD AND GET MAJISK AND USE IMEI RECOVERY APPS WITH ROOT
Let's Begin(UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER PEOPLE JUST USE FASTBOOT AND ON PC OPEN flashall.bat which is inside the folder once extracted then continue from step 2)
1) Flash the above version MIUI using SPFLASH TOOL
2) Setup the phone with NO INTERNET after setup connect to internet
3) Download and install the mtksu easy app latest version also install majisk manager 8.07
4)Open the mtksueasy app and click on the hash button to get root
5) After that go ahead and install either root explorer or IMEI changing app
6)
For people having NVDATA backup (if from twrp extract using https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ma.mk.twrpbackupextractor)
After that install Root Explorer and give it root preveleges. Then open /vendor/nvdata/
There copy all stuff inside and keep inside a folder as safety then go ahead and delete it all from /vendor/nvdata (mount it as r/w) next go ahead and paste all stuff from your NVDATA BACKUP INTO THE FOLDER. Then reboot.
For people who are using IMEI CHANGER APP just go ahead and type your original imei (Get it from the box)
7) Your done actually u can now unlock bootloader.
No need for any engineering roms or what not

use mtk bypass tool by mct team (free tool) google and download and open then click bypass then connect to pc then press volume up+power (make sure phone is powered off) it will bypass the auth and then you can use sp flash
make sure to download latest version of tool becuz old version required an extra step of installing drivers
Thanks for the information, I will try again.
Ayup,
TL;DR - The phone's network functionality is broken - no signal, data, says IMS isn't registered etc., even though the IMEI number is present. I've managed to fix the issue temporarily by following parts of 5G unlocking threads on XDA - the phone network went back to square one after a restart and stock firmware flash. I am unable to recreate the steps I took and get the network back to a temporary working state.
I've done something to my Pixel to completely break any mobile network functionality. I think it might be down to a corrupted /efs partition but I'm unsure; because I'm a pillock I didn't know to back it up when flashing custom ROMs onto my phone. The weird thing is, a while back I flashed a custom ROM onto the phone and reverted it to stock after about a day, but the network issues only started about a week ago.
Here are several things I've tried:
Erase modemst1 and modemst2 partitions - unable to through both su and fastboot.
Rooted phone with Magisk, installed Chinese SIM supporter, Pixel 5 carrier patch modules.
Found Pixel 5 mbn, extracted to computer and restored to the device through QPST EFS explorer (mcfg folder was empty)
Restored phone's qcn through QFIL.
Flashed ProtonAOSP kernel and ROM - thought it might fix something, but it didn't.
I'm at a complete loss and am about to send it off to a repair shop - I've been trying to fix it for a few days now and getting nowhere.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Cheers
I'm in simmiliar situation right now. My sim card slot stopped working out of a sudden, and everything happend during normal usage of the phone. I also suspected efs partition and i also did not made a backup. Thing is that only physical slot is not working, esim works just "fine". So fine i would say that i can't have it working without enabling dsds through *#*#4636#*#*. While there i can see info about phone 0(sim) and phone 1(esim). Everything in phone 1 looks normal however when i look at phone 0 instead of nothing i can see some random information taken from esim, like the fact that both slots hold t-mobile sim cards while only esim is from that carrier. I don't know anymore, i tried different roms i tried flashing manually i tried flashing with pixel flasher, nothing helped.

I don't know how but I guess leaving my phone for a few days after the things I tried has sorted it out. For whatever reason when I started my phone today, it went through a series of reboots and now works. I'll post everything that I did in another post below - hopefully it'll work for you
EDIT 30/05/2023: The phone was working alright yesterday and most of today. Until it restarted itself out of the blue and has now gone back to square one - I've had enough at this point going to put it in for repair.
--- PREREQUISITES:
Please download everything listed below they are not optional.
Android SDK Platform-Tools - https://developer.android.com/tools/releases/platform-tools
Google Pixel Stock Firmware (SELECT LINK, NOT FLASH) - https://developers.google.com/android/images#redfin
PixelFlasher - https://github.com/badabing2005/PixelFlasher/releases
QPST Tool - https://qpsttool.com/qpst-tool-v2-7-496
Pixel 5 Bits and Pieces - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Ukxx27e25HZ93XGjdZbepcsjenY7eFd7/view?usp=sharing
--- INSTRUCTIONS:
-- FLASHING STOCK FIRMWARE, ROOT AND INSTALLING MODULES
1) Flash stock firmware onto the phone using PixelFlasher:
- scan for ADB-connected device.
- download the stock firmware image for the phone.
- browse to the image zip on PixelFlasher and process.
- select the image from the list and patch.
- select WIPE all Data and Flash Boot.
- accept prompts to install Magisk and install the stable build.
2) Go through the first-time setup on the device.
3) Open the Magisk app, and let it finish setting up.
4) Once Magisk has rebooted the phone, go to settings and enable Zygisk.
5) Download the following modules attached.
6) Use adb to push each module file to the device: "adb push '*file path to module zip*' /sdcard/"
7) Go to the modules section on the Magisk app, and select "Install from storage".
8) Navigate to the root of the phone (3 bars top left corner of the screen, select pixel 5 and scroll down).
9) Install "Volte_switchonly.zip", "Pixel5_NR_magisk.module3.88.zip" and "safetynet-fix-v2.4.0.zip". Reboot the phone.
-- EXTRACTING MBN
10) Extract "EfsTools-0.10-modded-1.2-win32.zip"
11) Open "Pixel 5 MBNs.zip" and locate the corresponding mbn for your carrier.
12) Extract your mbn to the root of the extracted "EfsTools-0.10-modded-1.2-win32" folder.
13) Open a CMD/Powershell window in the extracted "EfsTools-0.10-modded-1.2-win32" folder.
14) Enter the following command:
- EfsTools.exe extractMbn -i mcfg_sw.mbn -p mcfg
15) Rename each file so the suffix on the end is removed (it was __E1FF_F in my case).
-- COPYING MBN FILES TO PHONE
16) With the phone connected to the computer, launch command prompt and type the following commands:
- adb devices (verify the phone is recognised)
- adb shell
- su
- resetprop ro.bootmode usbradio
- resetprop ro.build.type userdebug
- setprop sys.usb.config diag,diag_mdm,adb
- diag_mdlog
When it hangs at "failed to open diag socket", cancel the current operation by pressing ctrl + c.
17) Change the USB config on the phone to file transfer, and back to no data transfer.
18) Once finished, launch QPST Configuration, go to Start Clients and select EFS Explorer.
19) Select the phone and click OK.
20) Once loaded, navigate to the "mcfg" folder.
21) Now comes the most tedious bit - put every file and folder from the mcfg folder on your computer onto the mcfg folder on EFS Explorer.
22) Once finished, close out of EFS Explorer and QPST.
-- QCN IMEI RESTORE
23) Download the .qcn file and open IMEIRebuilder.exe.
24) Once open, open up the .qcn file and type in your IMEI number for the first and second SIM slots. (Pixel only comes with one SIM, so I just put the same IMEI for both IMEI 1 and 2 on the program).
25) Click rebuild and save the file.
-- QCN BACKUP RESTORE
26) Open QFIL, and select a port (if no ports appear, follow instruction 11.
27) Go to the Configuration tab and select "FireHose Configuration".
28) Change the "Device Type" to your device's storage type (can be found by entering the phone brand and model into GSMArena. But should be UFS for Pixel 5's).
29) Ensure "Reset After Download" and "Erase All Before Download" are unchecked. Click OK.
30) Go to the Tools tab and select "QCN Backup Restore". Browse for your modified .qcn file and select Restore QCN.
31) Reboot your phone and hope everything worked. If not it might be worth giving your phone a few days to sort itself out.
