# ZTE/nubia > ๐Ÿงน This page is missing a lot of info! - Verdict: **โš ๏ธ Proceed with caution!** - Verdict: **๐Ÿ… Terrible!** (Unisoc) Snapdragon-based nubia devices can be unlocked with the Fastboot command `fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_MODEL` (e.g. -- if your phone's model number is NX609J, the command would be `fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX609J`.). Newer ZTE devices can also be unlocked with the standard `fastboot flashing unlock` command, but this tends to break the fingerprint sensor, Unisoc devices will never be unlockable, this is *not* ZTE's fault, Unisoc does not allow unlocking. As for non-nubia ZTE devices: Old devices (pre Android 8):

[xdaforums.com][until-android-11-few-models] There is also a chance that your device is vulnerable to one of the MTK or Unisoc [exploits](../../README.md#universal-soc-based-methods). Side note, on the A11 link there is a collection of apps to grant a system shell, but they would probably only work on old models. *** Additional info provided by [Skorpion96](https://github.com/Skorpion96).
