Simply to Unlock motorola bootloader tutorial
First, here are the pre-requisites for it all to work:
Back up your phone first!!!
The phone’s battery must be charged to at least 80%.- USB debugging must be “ON”.
- Motorola USB drivers must be installed on a computer
Warning: Unlocking your phone’s bootloader voids its warranty. It also completely wipes (formats) your Android phone’s internal memory including applications, contacts, images and so on.
1. Connect
your phone to your computer via a USB cable. You have to enable USB
debugging mode on your smartphone. To do so, simply navigate to Settings
> About Phone > scroll to the bottom > tap Build number seven
(7) times. You'll get a short pop-up in the lower area of your display
saying that you're now a developer.
2. Go back and now access the Developer options menu, check ‘USB debugging’ and click OK on the prompt
3. Now,
it’s time to open Command Prompt (terminal) and get serious. Don’t
worry, all you’d need to do is copy and paste some code in it, it's not
hard at all. To open the terminal in Windows 7 hit the ‘Windows’ key,
type ‘cmd’, and hit Enter; in Windows 8, you’d need to navigate to the
new Modern UI home panel, and just type in ‘cmd’ there or
install & Download minimal adb and fastboot setup and open destop shorcut
Once you open the terminal, you need to change the folder to Platform Tools in the Minimal ADB and Fastboot. Typically, it looks something like this, but you have to find the exact path where you installed the Minimal ADB and Fastboot on your computer:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>
To change the folder you just copy the above path (as it is on your computer) and put ‘cd’ in front of it, so the whole command would look like so:
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>
install & Download minimal adb and fastboot setup and open destop shorcut

cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>
4. Now, you are ready to start putting in the first commands that control your phone. In the command line type in the following:
Hit ‘Enter’, and you should see the following:
List of devices attached
TA8900F923 device
The code will differ for different devices, so just make sure that something along these lines appears in the list of devices.
Next, type in:
This will make the phone reboot in bootloader mode. You’d need to wait a short while and see the bootloader menu.
Next, type the following in the terminal:
This will return you a unique string of code spread across five lines. It should look something like this:
finished. total time: 0.164s
fastboot devices
Hit ‘Enter’, and you should see the following:

Next, type in:
fastboot reboot bootloader
This will make the phone reboot in bootloader mode. You’d need to wait a short while and see the bootloader menu.
Next, type the following in the terminal:
fastboot oem get_unlock_data
This will return you a unique string of code spread across five lines. It should look something like this:
(bootloader) 3A95720615784488#5441383833304COKAY [ 0.164s]
(bootloader) 47325600585431303332000000#361D
(bootloader) 7293361E178D7D591294131B57789CA
(bootloader) 86EC4#C39412020F000000000000000
(bootloader) 0000000
finished. total time: 0.164s
Congratulations, you have completed the
first important part - this is your unique phone identifier. Now, you
need to copy just the numbers appearing after ‘(bootloader)’, and that’s
a bit tricky in the Windows Command Prompt. First, right click anywhere
in the Terminal, select Mark, and mark the whole block of text. Then,
hit enter. This will put all this copied text in the clipboard. Now, in
an app like Notepad, simply paste the copied text and delete everything
except for the numbers. Combine all numbers together so that they appear
as a single string like so:
5. Copy this super-long string and head straight to Motorola’s official website, sign and skip right to step 6.
3A95720615784488#5441383833304C47325600585431303332000000#361D7293361E178D7D591294131B57789CA86EC4#C39412020F0000000000000000000000
5. Copy this super-long string and head straight to Motorola’s official website, sign and skip right to step 6.
Paste the already copied super-long string
and click on the “Can my device be unlocked?” button. Make sure you
have removed all blank spaces from the copied string, and you should get
a green light to get your bootloader unlocked.
Accept the user agreements, and head to your email, where Motorola has sent you the final instructions.
6. FINAL INSTRUCTIONS: Copy the 20-character key that Motorola sent you via email. Then, in the terminal (make sure your phone is still connected to your computer via USB), type:
Hit ‘Enter’, and you should see the following:
List of devices attached
TA8900F923 device

If you have entered all info correctly, your phone should be rebooting
by itself, showing you the image you see on the right. And yes, now you
have your bootloader unlocked!
