    Dear Sir,
    I have read useful tips about YU5530.
    I am facing problem of message on screen ” please enter privacy restriction password to unlock ” for unlocking the phone, which i may have forgotten / may not be knowing.
    I have tried factory reset but to no purpose. Quick Heal antivirus customer care also did not help me in this regard. I am totally stuck. Is there any solution and you can provide guide lines to restart my phone and oblige.
    With regards.
    Shaikh A.R.A.

      Waiting for the device is caused when your device is not detected by Fastboot. Below are the things you can try.

      1. Install YU USB Drivers on your PC.

      2. Make sure you have included –i 0x1ebf on every Fastboot command.
