unisoc-unlock 0.0.1

Tool for unlocking a Unisoc/Spreadtrum Android bootloader

unisoc-unlock

This is a tool to unlock a Unisoc / Spreadtrum (SPD) Android bootloader using its Identifier Token.

It is a port of a WebUSB based tool [1] to Python. The WebUSB based tool does not work on Linux for some reason. There is also a custom fastboot binary in circulation [2] which implements a custom command for unlocking the bootloader. unisoc-unlock implements the same functionality, but without resorting to a custom fastboot binary. Since it is a pure Python solution it should be able to run on any platform running Python.

python-adb

unisoc-unlock is implemented with python-adb [3]. Since python-adb is abandoned and requires some tweaking to work with the Unisoc, it is not referenced as dependency, but bundled instead.

Usage

• Reboot device into fastboot mode

adb reboot bootloader

• Run the python script

python3 unisoc-unlock.py

• Confirm unlocking on the device

  Note: on the RG405M, the text on the device screen will ask for 'volume down' button to confirm unlock, but the home/back button has to be pressed instead!
