### Why do you need to enable OEM unlocking
To flash a custom ROM like LineageOS or /e/OS you need to unlock the bootloader of your device.  
This requires that you as owner of the device should:
- Grant permission to unlock the bootloader

On Fairphone devices, an unlock code is also required to perform this action.  
Follow below steps to enable `OEM unlocking` toggle in `Developer Options`.

## Enable Developer Options
`Settings` >> `About Phone` >> `Build Number or Version` >> `Tap seven times`

## Enable OEM unlocking in Developer Options
1. Boot device
1. Connect to WiFi
1. Get unlock code from fairphone [through this link](https://www.fairphone.com/en/bootloader-unlocking-code-for-fairphone)
1. Go to `Deveoper Options` page through `Settings` >> `System` >> `Developer options`
1. From `Developer Options`, enable `OEM unlocking` toggle
    - Enter unlock code from step 3 in `Input verify code` popup window and tap on `ENABLE`
1. Confirm visually that `OEM unlocking` toggle is enabled
