today I'm going to show you how to
unlock the bootloader of the
international slash Global Galaxy s8 and
Galaxy s8 plus and again this method
will only work for the SM - g95 0f + sm
- g9 v 5f now there could be other model
numbers that this works for but I can't
test those since I don't have them for
United States carrier variants a exploit
needs to be discovered first to unlock
the bootloader those are very rare but
if they do happen then I will definitely
do a guide on that on my website so be
sure to stay updated there if you're
curious about how to unlock the
bootloader of those other devices so to
unlock the bootloader of the
international XE knows Galaxy s8 and
Galaxy S 8 plus we first need to enable
developer options and if you're unsure
of how to do that check the full
tutorial that it will be linked in the
upper right corner and in the
description below this video and that
will walk you through that process
once you have developer options enabled
you're just going to launch the settings
application scroll down and tap on
developer options and then should be
right here toward the top you're going
to have an OEM unlock option it's just a
simple toggle we're going to toggle that
on it's going to ask are you sure just
tap on turn on and that is all you have
to do to
unlock the bootloader of the
international slash Global Galaxy s8 and
Galaxy s8 plus the main reason to do
this is to install a custom recovery so
that you can do things like root the
device so as long as you have that
option enabled you can then install a
custom recovery via Odin and that's
something I will cover in a future
tutorial and video
