how can i open bootllader? in a mate 20x global.
The Mate 20 X cannot currently be unlocked. Huawei has never provided unlock codes for this device, and the leaked codes sold by third parties were stopped some time ago. A leak could always happen again. Or Huawei could return to supporting the enthusiast community and providing codes on request like they used to. I have seen no evidence that either is likely to happen.

I am on android 10 using AOSP 10 Preview 2 on my EVR-L29. So far so good. No bugs... yet
So it's rooted and on android 10? I did the official update and lost root with bootloader locked and won't unlock with known methods. Can you post a screen shot of your About screen?

I also updated to EMUI 10 and "lost" bootloader unlock. Then reverted to EMUI 9.1 using Hisuite. Bootloader was unlocked again after reboot. So EMUI 10 seems to be ignoring unlock rather than disabling it. Replaced EMUI 9.1 with AOSP 10 preview 2 from OpenKirin, and it works as well as it did before the 10 upgrade. Don't see a path to rooted EMUI 10.

Correct, it's rooted and on ANDROID 10 not EMUI 10.

Sadly, I don't see a path to it either. I miss EMUI 10 just for the alarm sound ringing even if phone is turned off feature. Plus scroll screen capture was nice.

I gave up on this phone a long time ago. Reverting from EMUI 10 to 9 to AOSP P2 was just to see what would happen, and I thought sharing the result might help someone. I reinstalled EMUI 10 and threw it back in the drawer as a backup.

Been using "AEX Beta 1 P1 (No GApps)" from OpenKirin for several weeks. A few small bugs and jitters, but overall a smooth and reliable ROM. Don't use GMS/Play, fingerprint, bluetooth, NFC, location or magisk, so YMMV. Stock camera is included. Nice to finally have a GMS free option. Really appreciate the OpenKirin hackers keeping unlocked Huawei phones alive.
