Thus it is very indispensable to know what bootloader exactly is. Bootloader is actually an executable code that runs prior to any operating system actually starts operating. The mechanism of bootloader\u2019s function is universal and is same for all devices that require operating system interface, such as computers, laptops, Smart Phones, etc. It basically contains a package of modules that commands the operating system kernel to boot along with debugging or modification environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Also read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iseepassword.com\/blog\/how-to-make-android-phone-faster\/\">3 ways to make your Android phone run faster<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\"><strong>Part 1. What&#8217;s Bootloader? and Why We Need to Unlocker Bootloader?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">The functionality of bootloader solely depends upon the processer\u2019s speed as it starts running before all the softwares even begins to take a start up in the system while the device is turning on. But the bootloader differs according to the hardware of the motherboard, and this is the fundamental reason that most of the Android mobiles have custom ROMs due to the difference of the processing hardware. Since the manufacturer incorporates different specifications into the different Android devices, the bootloader differs accordingly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-941\" src=\"https:\/\/www.iseepassword.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/unlock_bootloader-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"607\" height=\"404\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">Thus manufacturers prefer to keep the bootloader locked so that the users can stick to what is designed conventionally for them instead of altering the specifications, though Android is an open source Operating system. But if you&#8217;re <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iseepassword.com\/bypass-android-lock-screen-password.html\">locked out of screen password<\/a>. unlocking bootloader will be useless.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t miss: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iseepassword.com\/delete-text-messages-on-android.html\">How to completley erase text messages on Android<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\"><strong>Part 2. How can I Unlocker Bootloader on Huawei P8\/P9\/P10?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">Now the question is that what is the need of unlocking Bootloader on Huawei P8\/P10? The answer is quite simple as unlocking the bootloader for a particular device would give access to root the Android device and flash the custom ROM. Unlocking the device will give access to the stock Android operating system and the clear track to install custom firmware for the device.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">Here in this article we would discuss two effective methods to unlock the bootloader on Huawei on P8\/P9\/P10.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">Method 1. Unlock HuaWei P10\/P9\/P8 Bootloader by Email Request<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">In this method we would email to Huawei directly to ask for the unlock code by providing the device details to them. Instead of toiling with unnecessary tricks, this is the easiest way to go and convenient way to get the unlock code for the Huabwei bootloader. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">Step 1. Firstly, dispatch an Email to Huawei to get the particular unlock code. The content of your Email must contain the following details of your device, such <em><i>Product ID, Serial Number, and IMEI.<\/i><\/em>\u00a0Once you have attached all the details send it to <a href=\"mailto:mobile@huawei.com\"><strong><em><u><b><i>mobile@huawei.com<\/i><\/b><\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\"><strong><em><b><i><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-944 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.iseepassword.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/unlock_huawei12-1.jpg\" alt=\" Unlock HuaWei P10\/P9\/P8 Bootloader \" width=\"608\" height=\"331\" \/><\/i><\/b><\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\"><strong><em><b><i>\u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/em><\/strong><\/span><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">Step 2. It would take approximately around few hours to two days at times to get a reply off the manufacturer. The received email would certainly contain the unlock code which will help you unlock your device.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">Step 3. Now; you should download \u201cAndroid SDK\/ Fastboot from the Internet.<\/span> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-945\" src=\"https:\/\/www.iseepassword.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/android_sdk_manager.jpg\" alt=\"Android SDK\/ \" width=\"651\" height=\"511\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">Step 4.
