how to hard reset the phone
I was able to successfully unlock my XDA2... Thanks.
Now that it is unlocked, can I remove the unlocking program? I would like to reset the device, but still have it unlocked.
Thanks,
a Newbie
Yes.

But of course
Yes and you may flash other ROMS on the phone and it will still remain unlocked for ever.

That's not really a solution for his problem. That's a way to prevent this problem in the future.
As far as I know, the only solution is to hard-reset the phone and then unlock it again. Instead of using the xml-provisioning to prevent relock, you could use the method provided in the link from thesecondsfade.
What I am interrested in, is how did your phone lock itself? What did you do prior to the phone relocking itself?
If I reset my phone to factory settings from root and S-Off will my unlocked status go away? I have Super CID and I unlocked my phone but I am trying to sell it as an unlocked device so wanted to check if that will disappear.
Bootloader unlock will remain, as will S-Off.

Factory reset won't bring back a carrier/sim lock either.

I have my Verizon pixel xl unlocked with the sunshine mod from when I first got it. Can I relock the bootloader without the oem unlock setting being greyed out so I can unlock it in the future?
According to jcase, no.

DO NOT RELOCK YOUR BOOTLOADER, unless you have restored it back to 100% stock and are sure you won't want it unlocked again.

Why do you want to relock it anyways?

While jcase was against it, after I have done my research, I attempted relocking my Verizon bootloader so I could send it out for RMA. I did it after I flashed the original factory image and made sure everything is back to OEM. So, I can tell you that it is possible. However, PLEASE don't take my words for it. Do your research and be 110% sure before you proceed. My heart was pounding so hard when I was trying to relock it because of the uncertainty... Anyway, do it at your own risk, I am just sharing you my experience, but please don't blame me if things go south

If by slider, you meant to ask if I locked it again, yes I did. I believe I relock it through fastboot.
There was really no point for me to unlock it again because I needed to send it for RMA so I never tried.

If you unlock it and your already updated you won't be able to unlock again.
Haven't personally tried but I would be willing to bet a large sum of money if you relock it you will not be able to unlock it again I wouldn't even take the risk.

I made the mistake of relocking and taking new updates. For sure, the unlock option was removed:
in first step of unlocking phone, the slider in Dev Options was forever greyed out. And it did not understand
fastboot unlock commands again. I would not recommend relocking Pixels for any reason other than return for
warranty repair.

Locking on anything stock past 7.1 without root, would prohibit you from unlocking. If locking your BL + and no root capability = NO ability to unlock BL Thus what we have have So far, no known exploits...at least by me.
