I don't recommend paid methods due to general sketchiness. I have used one of these tools a while ago, it was okay.<br/>

### Samsung (Qualcomm)
It's not possible. (I think)
### HMD Global/Nokia
In the flaming pile of HMD's "great" decisions to improve Nokia, one stands out more than others: They decided to follow the fresh "lock the bootloader" trend.<br/>
Why was this necessary? I don't know...

### Samsung
If you have a North American device, well, uh... If you're lucky enough not to update for a while, you can check out [this paid service](https://xdaforums.com/t/android-unsamlock-bootloader-unlock-for-samsung-us-canada-devices.4215101/). (At your own risk)
If you bought your phone elsewhere, and it's not carrier locked, you can use the standard process, but brace yourself for all the breakage coming your way!
For example, unlocking will permanently trip Knox. As a result *any* Knox-based features will be broken *even if you re-lock*. This includes, but not limited to: Samsung Pay, Pass, Flow, Health, Secure Folder, Secure Wi-Fi, Smart View. Can you be denied warranty? Probably...
Some of those features can be fixed with this LsPosed module https://github.com/BlackMesa123/KnoxPatch and this Magisk Module https://github.com/BlackMesa123/KnoxPatch#knoxpatch-enhancer.
In addition, some basic features can, and will probably break, like VoLTE, (thanks to Samsung's proprietary implementation) and in certain cases [even the camera](https://xdaforums.com/t/a52s-5g-sm-a528b-unlock-bootloader-camera-failed.4336007/).

If you have an Exynos-based Samsung, you can unlock your phone, but this will permanently trip Knox. As a result *any* Knox based features will be broken *even if you re-lock*.

### Motorola
To start off, to unlock your bootloader you need to make a request on their website, which is pretty bad on its own (*wink* Huawei), but there's also no way to know if your model supports unlocking beforehand.
