ZTE Axon 10 Pro US bootloader unlock request

[freeza]

It looks like ZTE is back again with another flagship killer with an unbelievable price! With 8+256 for $549 and 12+256 for $599 this will be the device to beat the rest of 2019 and well into 2020. However, one thing will separate the Axon 10 Pro from the OnePlus 7/7T going forward and that is an official bootloader unlock from ZTE. The inclusion of microSD support has me wanting this phone more than any out currently. Hopefully the bootloader is unlockable out of box, but if not, please, ZTE, if you happen to read this, PLEASE include an official bootloader unlock, preferably one that doesn't affect widevine L1 so we can enjoy a flourishing development community as well as high quality video on this display.

XDA, let's show ZTE how great this device can be with your support in backing an official bootloader unlock for the Axon 10 Pro!

Unlock Bootloader will be awesome, and having You as well as @Unjustified Dev as developers will rock this device even more like Axon 7 did.

If ZTE is watching, I just want to say thanks.

I remember receiving a PM from @DrakenFX 3 years ago about this new phone THE ZTE AXON 7! Doesn't that sound cool? It wasn't the first time we crossed paths or second here on XDA.

At the time, ZTE was known for stripping devices of fastboot mode. Regardless of my novice skills, I still took on the challenge.

Shortly after coming into the community and learning about this device and meeting some great people, I received another PM! A guy asked for my address to send me a device! Yes, that's correct, my first device was actually bought by one member of XDA.

The joy of that day can never be explained or replicated again. I received my device a bit later which was good because ZTE had just released the OTA file that allowed B20 to be unlocked and brought back fastboot which is stripped on all of their devices that I've ever worked with.

In less than a week we had CM-13.0 running, but there were so many things we couldn't figure out.

Before I knew it, ZTE reached out to me and a few other CyanogenInc developers. They helped us fix Audio, fingerprint, sensors, VR, Camera, and I'm betting even more. I am considering getting the Axon 10 Pro myself if I don't receive one from ZTE or anyone else

I think we're all asking for you to be the same ZTE that left us with the Axon 7 one of the most influential devices in your history.

Already prepared for this amazing device http://files.nwwn.com/~unjust/Axon 10 Pro/LineageOS/

If bootloader unlock is there I am definitely jumping back to ZTE from OnePlus

Lineage 16.0

@Unjustified Dev What base firmware did you use to build Lineage 16.0?

Thanks

How did you do that?

I hope that it does not take long until we can all unlock the BL
and we get TWRP for axon 10

Unlock Bootloader is possible at the moment (thanks to @Unjustified Dev and if not mistaken is or will work on TWRP, but will see....:good::good:

TWRP isn't ready due to decryption with a pin set. And lineage isn't ready either but you can install GSI. Only difference is GSI don't take full advantage of the Qualcomm enhancements like gps and ims but everything else *should* work

If I'm going to run this phone, I would love LineageOS as that's what I am on currently. Why Android has to be a pain to get everything migrated from an old phone to a new phone and hasn't been fixed is beyond frustrating too. I don't upgrade often due to the fact that phone hardware sucks or the boot-loader is encrypted. If that wasn't an issue that would be one less hassle but the fact that it's so much trouble to change from an old device to a new device while taking all your stuff with you and not losing or having stuff get missed in the transfer that's the biggest reason I keep my phones so long.

I'll need all the regular features like GPS so I can't really do without full support and I wouldn't want to run anything but LineageOS anyway because when LineageOS is ready I want to just get my stuff to it and not have to do the move of my data multiple times.

Thanks

The phone hasn't been out very long. It took a whole team to get most of the issues worked out the Axon 7. There's no way we could just get it working that fast. Keep in mind I don't own the device either. It's going to take time regardless due to so much changing with Android I'm behind on all the new stuff like encryption.

For starters, @Unjustified Dev DOES NOT have this Device, he is doing every blind and if you want to get any custom software together, jump in and help him get the Axon 10 Pro, so he can debug and get faster fixes for this device.

Other than that You Have To Wait like everyone else

Hello,

Thanks for taking time to respond to my message. I understand what you mean about the encryption. Can I justify buying the phone at the double cost from what the Axon 7 cost? Not sure however I am highly interested in this.

Thanks

Can we start or set something up here to donate so he can get a device?

I am not sure how that works here.

If you want you can start a thread using his "PayPal.me" or just donate to him here :

Every little thing counts and the faster he get the device the faster WE will see things moving.
