[Please help] Unlocking bootloader when POWER-UP button doesn't work in fastboot
[Please help] Unlocking bootloader when POWER-UP button doesn't work in fastboot
(21-09-2018, 08:10 AM)rauliordache Hi,
I want to use a firmware (preloader, lk, etc.) from my device (VOYO Q101) as a starting point for porting (as base rom). Kernel: 3.10.65+, Lollipop 5.1. I want to port Nougat and/or Oreo systems.
The problem is that it cannot be unlocked, because the POWER-UP button (for confirmation) in fastboot mode does not work. The only way to unlock the bootloader is doing manually..... (HEX file?)
Here is the lk.bin: https://ufile.io/pgdlo
Can someone help me in this process, please? Without unlocking the bootloader I cannot boot any custom ROM I've made...
Device: (a chinese brand) - VOYO Q101 2GB/32GB-
Thanks!

continous pressing of vol up button worked for me, had to press vol up button more than ten times in total. maybe you can try that
(22-09-2018, 03:19 PM)rauliordache Unfortunately, I 've pressed fifty times .... doesn't work.
So, there are 2 solutions:
- to try to unlock the 3.10.65+, but I don't know how. Maybe directly changing the bytes from lk.bin ?
- to flash the unlockable bootloader (from 7.0, 3.18) and then.... to boot (somehow any 3.10.65+ system). Flashing is ok, I have solved the partition renaming.

...
I am not starting any porting (the every sense of the word) process until I successfully boot my stock 3.10 on the second build....

have you tried
flashing stock nougat rom using spft then boot to homescreen
then flash boot, recovery and system [no modifications] from lollipop rom using spft then perform factory reset in recovery mode then see if it can boot to homescreen?

I think it was enough just to add in the 3.10 boot the string "1123000.msdc0" for every partition (in all files: fstab, init.rc files, etc.). But it isn't. Does the kernel (from 3.10) - and in general - contain any references to device partitions? Because I didn't touch it. If it contains any references to the system partitions, then I need also to decompile it (somehow), and add also the string "11230000.msdc0"...
