Instead of unlocking the bootloader, is it not possible to root the cellphone through Kingroot? and then install Flashify, and through this app, where the device needs to be rooted, you can flash its custom recovery (ie. TWRP). Where my main goal is to achieve Root and the possibility to flash other custom ROMs and/or make a full backup through custom recovery.
Probably I am missing something, because wherever I go on the internet, eveyone says that the bootloader has to be unlocked in order to have root priviledges and install TWRP, and this does not come cheap, you have to pay for it.
Thanks for the reply in advance.
Huawei’s want to secretly make money with bootloader codes
thats the dumbest reply ive ever read and ive read some doozys, if huawei wanted to make money from bootloader codes they wouldnt have taken the unlock service off of their website (thye took it off cos they were getting to many idiots bricking their phones and sending them back to be fixed) they would have just started charging ppl for it.
Any service hint to a working unlock bootloader for Huawei p20 pro? (no problem to pay for it, i just want to enable root in my device!)
