OEM Bootloader Unlocking now enabled in Dev Options (Android 10)

[phlum]

My phone updated to Android 10 a couple of days ago. I spotted there are some new entries in the Developer Options menu - but the main thing is that the OEM Unlocking option is now toggleable:

Previously this was greyed out, so I'm interested to see if this makes much of a difference. Or if anyone else even sees it, haven't seen any mention of it anywhere else.

By the way, you have enabled: "stay awake" option, this might lead you to slow charging only. This happened to me.

Yes, I enabled it also. Don' t know if it's really unlocked. So... great question.

Just enabling the option won't do much on its own, you'd still have to unlock it with fastboot.

Does this mean that after selecting this option I can unlock the phone and install a custom rom like lineage?

Seems like we are out of luck. Below reaction of Singhnsk at Nokiamob:

that toggle being toggleble doesn't mean unlockabke too. If you enable it and head to fastboot, you'll see unlock ability as 0 I.e. Not allowed.
