Unlocking the device
Once fastboot is installed:
- Enable USB debugging on the device.
- Connect the device to the computer through USB.
- From a terminal on a computer, type the following to boot the device into fastboot mode:
$ adb reboot bootloader
- From the same terminal, type the following command to unlock the bootloader (under Linux, you must be root):
WIKI ERROR: not set!
- A disclaimer will display on the device that must be accepted. Use the volume keys to cycle through the options. Pressing the power button should confirm your selection.
- If the device doesn't automatically reboot, reboot it from the menu. It should now be unlocked.
- Since the device resets completely you need to re-enable USB debugging.
