Is it possible to unlock the bootloader without root access? If so, is there another way to unlock the bootloader without using the command...
fastboot oem unlock
Now, for the background stuff that might be helpful to understand my question. My particular device does not seem to support fastboot so I am wondering if there is a way to do it using
adb shell
This is the behavior when I try to use fastboot.
