Need help unlocking your cellphone?

are we talking bootloader unlock? or carrier unlock?

 

that's why im asking because people will be confused with your title and op unless you are clear in what you are offering.

 

nope i just wanted to make clear what you are offering people here on AF. people might get confused what kind of unlocking you are talking about. i have a note 10+ 5G with a snapdragon processor which makes my bootloader unlockable.

 

ummmm no if a bootloader can't be unlocked you can't root it. never heard of trying to unlock a bootloader and killing your phone. if you can't oem unlock, then you are done....no root, but phone will still work.

 

Hm... last time I rooted a phone was years ago... But I'm pretty sure it's (maybe used to be) possible to root w/o unlocking the bootloader.
IIRC this was done by booting recovery.img with fastboot and then flash your rooting app from there.
Not 100% sure on the process, but AFAIK rooting and bootloader unlocking are two separate things, that don't (always) depend on one another.
