Obtaining the OEM unlock key
As late July 2018, Huawei no longer offering bootloader unlock keys, however it's possible to unlock the bootloader with a fee from third party.
See this XDA article: https://www.xda-developers.com/huawei-honor-unlock-bootloader-fee
WARNING: postmarketOS developers, including the person editing this page do not run these websites. We don't earn any profits from these services. There’s no guarantee that these services are safe to use, and you put your device at risk if you choose to use these services because Huawei will likely not offer support for you in case anything goes wrong (unless required by law). |
Finally unlock the connected device via:
# fastboot oem unlock $KEY #$KEY should be set to your unlock key
