That's all what I got when I try to oem unlock my device. Please can you help me in it, I would like to downgrade it to Lollipop, and that requires an oem unlock, and I don't know what's the unlock key. Is there anyone who could tell me that?

And yes, I have enabled usb debugging and oem unlock options in the developers settings.

Hey there I have recently got a Lenovo Vibe B (A2016) and am also trying to gain root so gaining an open bootloader is must first.

I saw somewhere online people also using these following lines using adb and fastboot so give them a shot and let me know your progress.

Unlock bootloader -

"fastboot -i 0x2b4c oem unlock-go"

To check the status of the bootloader -

"fastboot -i 0x2b4c oem get-device-info"

Unlock bootloader -

"fastboot -i 0x2b4c oem unlock-go"

To check the status of the bootloader -

"fastboot -i 0x2b4c oem get-device-info"
"fastboot -i 0x2b4c oem unlock-go" -> The device react but i can't do volume up to confirm. (the key didn't do anything but work fine in android os)

"fastboot -i 0x2b4c oem get-device-info" -> FAILED (unknown command)

"fastboot -i 0x2b4c getvar all" ->
(bootloader) warranty: yes
(bootloader) unlocked: no
(bootloader) secure: yes
(bootloader) kernel: lk
(bootloader) product: K52_E78
(bootloader) version: 0.5


I've a modded fastboot image that didn't ask the confirmation for the bootloader unlock (made by me by modifying lk.bin instructions with an hex editor and a decompiler), but i can't find a way to flash it...

That's interesting looks like it might need a key. Is it running 6.0.1 (MM) have u tried these -

" fastboot oem unlock "

" fastboot flashing unlock "

If u do manage to unlock bootloader you can lock again using -

" fastboot oem lock "

" fastboot oem relock "

" fastboot flashing lock "

Good Luck!

" fastboot oem unlock " -> Same Problem (volume up not working)

" fastboot flashing unlock " -> FAILED (unknown command)

Motrola (aka Lenovo) often use codes for unlock bootloader

Dam sorry I couldn't help there, it's about as far as I got! Have u managed to root without 3rd party apps like KingRoot as I also want a systemless root.

Enable oem unlock option in developer setting. Boot your android in fastboot mode and type commands without quotes
"fastboot devices" then enter
"fastboot oem unlock" then enter

I hope your bootloader unlocked.

Hello,

First of all you need to downgrade to Android 5.1 and then you can root it using KingRoot.
