I've learnt about veeeery easy way to obtain an unlock code without need to contact Huawei.
1. First of all you have to be rooted (via Kingroot or 360 root). Kingroot worked well for me.
2. You have to install HonorTuner (attached).
3. Launch HonorTuner, go to Hardware Info and check out numbers in WVLOCK. This is your unlock code!
People say it works. As for me I didn't unlock my bootloader yet, so I can't confirm. It would be nice if anyone with unlocked bootloader with unlock code from Huawei could check and say whether WVLOCK and Huawei unlock code are the same.

I don't understand the point of this! If this tool is only going to show the unlock code of that phone on which it is installed, how is it useful to others? Let's just say that my phone is rooted and I install this tool HonorTuner on my phone and I tell you that yes, the unlock code that it shows (for my phone) is the same as the one that I got from Huawei, how would it help to get the unlock code of YOUR device?

Unlocking bootloader is normally the first step before rooting so is there any point to this?

Or can you properly root it without unlocking the bootloader?

I personally wouldn't want my phone rooted without a custom recovery to back it up before changes so you should still unlock the bootloader first.

This is for people that want to unlock their bootloader but don't want to spend days and days waiting for huawei to send their unlock codes. Just root with kingroot, and install the app.

PD: I also confirm it works

Thanks man, this saved my life and my h*as !!!
My Mate 7 was stack in bootloop at Huawei logo, due to a wrond (bul****) procedure I fount and followed on the web.
Recovery was lost and bootloader was FAULTY unlocked (it really was still locked)
I rooted the phone, installed your APK and then obtained the BL unlock code.
Then everithing was easy and the Mate returned alive.
Therefore thanks for your suggestion and to have saved my Mate 7 life !!!
Cheres !!!

Some Huawei ROMs have the tendency to re-lock the bootloader after a while, has happened to mine a few times already.
