Believe it or not, this is posted by me.
The unlock procedure combined alternate unlock method mentioned in Nokia 6 2018 forum.
- Your phone need to flash service abl/xbl provided in the firmware
- The value of offset 0x5101 in deviceinfo partition must be larger than 0x02 (unsigned)
- You need to grant flash permission before unlocking
- Use specifically made mlf file
Finally I got this result.
To grant flash permission, permission key is generated by FIH server that not everyone can obtain.
As for the rest... Nokia 8 sirocco bootloader unlock requires remote control and payment.

I'll send over my request in a few days once I have my phone.
Hopefully your efforts pressure Nokia into an official unlock, then maybe we'll get some devs playing around with the Sirocco.
Hello,
Is the phone root possible ? Twrp ?
Thanks you

Interesting question.
Does unlocking the bootloader break things (ota, drm keys, picture quality)? It's sometimes the case.

No, and you can even root these days and continue getting OTAs thanks to the Magisk OTA method.

no need to be sad you can still unlock bootloader and do everything you want except S-OFF as of now. Only if you are from verizon you are doomed. So head to HTCDEV unlock bootloader use hasoon toolkit for easy bootloader unlocking. flash twrp recovery. Download any custom rom you like and welcome. But keep in mind unlocking bootloader wipes complete 32gb storage so anything important must be backed up below is link for toolkit

it can void your warranty it usually always does if you report a issue with the device HTC will go "our records show you have unlocked the bootoader" and yea they pretty much refuse to fix your device. id wait till revone works on the latest hboot. can unlock without need to unlock via htc dev ^^
best of luck id go crazy having a android phone i couldnt flash ROM's on XD

Bootloader unlock is not working for note mi pro.
It looks like Xiaomi locked the bootloader in one the latest updates, so the toolkit may not work if you've updated recently. I'll see if I can include an official way to unlock the bootloader for the next toolkit update.

Nope, this tool is an AiO toolkit for many many models, the developer used his standard text when he opened the thread (understandable ). So probably you will be able to unlock the BL, but you won't be able to relock it, as there is no procedure known at the moment.

Added to index, thanks for your work!
Very nice program.Thanks.
Nice tool man glad I found this helped me a lot used it to unlock my bootloader after I downgraded and flashed twrp for it thanks man much appreciated
I tried this toolkit and I don't seem to be able to make it work. Other than being unlocked, in the fastboot mode, it says the bootloader version is unknow, that the signing got a "?" and same thing about the secure boot. There is a blue line saying "continue the fastboot process" as if something wasnt completed. If I launch into recovery I get an installation icon then an error.
Thanks for your help.

No need to be ironic.
At first i thought the same as you, but i looked it that excel file that liste the supported devices. The Zenfone 2 is listed in the "requests" section, not in the supported section.
That is why I asked.
please upload video on youtube!
Has anyone used this to Unlock Bootloader, flash TWRP, and Gain Root? Just making sure it works as intended on the latest ZE551ML update (WW_2.20.40.97) before I try it out.
Also, the ADBDriver.msi installer is not working for me. I'm using Windows 10, if that's the problem...?

It's possible. I unlocked my BL with this file. Currently waiting for people to make 3rd party roms for it.
Attached link to my gdrive.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-Wqzmcwpi_9c1BpUUJPenI1Y00
Download and install. It will prompt you if you wish to unlock BL
Edit: TWRP is available too. Just that in Chinese. Might be able to change to English.

Knox was tripped to 0x1 as expected... Magisc is running pretty good except the know issue that it sometimes disappear and i have to restart so it is "rooted" again.

Can somebody help me to understand whats happening and how to avoid it? The device is the Note 8 N9500

I've checked youtube and some online articles, but almost ROOT is limited to MIUI 12 or MIUI 13.0.5 or below, if anyone is sure of rooting my system, please share the corresponding youtube link or the corresponding online article

Advice in this case.
Don't root if you are in a hurry
Bootloader unlock is at least 7 days waiting
Backup before and restore after format is again a couple of hours
Brick is a couple of weeks or papermate

I don't have any data and can format at any time,
I hope to achieve ROOT as soon as possible, Maybe 7 days can also wait or over 7 days,
I was wondering if there is an exact way?
Of course, I also hope that it will not become a brick,
Why should I root?
Because I'm very disgusted with the monitoring and security software that comes with the mobile phone system, I don't need these software and management, I am use to assured of Google's management, and don't need mobile phone security App,

There is a lot of information how to unlock and root your Xiaomi device.
So I won't give you a detailed guide.
- Start with bootloader unlock
- While waiting 7 days, study how to go further and download everything you need.
- Like ADB, Twrp or Orangefox, Magisk, Custom rom and optional Gapps
...................... Studying before next actions is necessary to avoid a brick ..........................................
- After 7 days, unlock
- Flash with fastboot, recovery (Twrp or Orangefox)
- Reboot to recovery
- Follow flash and format instructions of desired Rom
- Flash Magisk for root
PS
Please don't shout anymore for root in a hurry
