itel

  • Verdict: ⚠️ Proceed with caution!
  • Verdict: 🍅 Terrible! (Unisoc)

Itel requires you to have an Itel ID for two weeks before the OEM Unlocking option becomes available in the settings. Afterwards, you can follow the standard unlock guide for devices with a MediaTek SoC. Unisoc devices cannot be unlocked, this is not itel's fault, Unisoc does not allow unlocking.

Earlier, itel didn't require online verification and two weeks of waiting. Things changed.

Galaxy OS 2.x

Since this version they have disabled the ability to unlock the bootloader entirely.

GPL

itel does not share the kernel source code for their devices. This is a violation of the GPLv2 license used in the Linux kernel. The lack of kernel source code severely limits the creation of custom Android distributions, and can also at times make it more difficult to root or run GSIs.
