Hey but the bootloader is unlocked right so why does that matter? I think it happens to every tab after unlocking the bootloader the oem unlocking option gets greyed right?So, finally i was able to unlock the bootloader using the firehose file from the stock rom and editing the devinfo.img..
I will make a detailed guide soon, so that others can make use of it.
EDIT: Detailed thread HERE
Thanks....
So we can go ahead and install twrp and rom without worrying about the oem unlocking greyed right?
