Your bootloader did relock, the yes is telling you that your bootloader CAN be unlocked, this is normal. As for the nandroid error, it failed because you cannot rewrite the boot image after you have relocked. This is fixable though don't worry, just flash stock firmware using flashtool
How do i know
How do i know is my bootloader is locked or unlocked coz member in here said like this Bootloader unlock allowed - Yes << this means that your Bootloader is Locked
Bootloader Unlocked - Yes << this means that your bootloader is unlocked.
So base on it mean my bootloader is still unlocked, But u said is locked? so can some one tell me how to double cross check my bootloader is locked or unlock

Xyge my phone posisiton is stuck on Sony logo and i'm will flash the official rom using flashtool so it's mean my kernel will be stock one. So should i try to flash again the kernel or try other thing?
you cant update your phone to pc companion when your phone is unlocked.
Sorry, I don't understand what it is you want to accomplish here. Do you want to just fix your phone and re-lock your bootloader?
I just want to relock my bootloader

Open flashtool and connect your phone in flash mode. On the screen look for "bootloader status:" or somethings similar. If your bootloader is locked it will say ROOTABLE or if your bootloader is unlocked it will say ROOTED.
If your bootloader is unlocked you cannot update from Sony PC direct and if you phone is locked Sony will allow you to update the phone

Actually thats not right. If you relocked the bootloader it will go back to Bootloader unlocked allowed: Yes and not stay at Bootloader Unlocked: Yes
When you try flashing that bootloader relock in flashtool what happens? I have used it many times with my LT26i with no issues. Can you past the log from flashtool when you try to flash it?
Hi,
I just woundring if after unlock bootloader with HTCDEV is it possible to back to factory state with *** LOCKED *** status of bootloader again.
I think that it's not possible, but many times I read here on XDA it coud be done.
I know that it's a tool to lock bootloader from CWM - but if we LOCKED bootloader from CWM after that we can't reflash bootloader to oryginal HTC ( becuse it's LOCKED ).
If we first reflash bootloader to stock ( by fastboot) one we can't use this tool.
So the last way to lock bootloader is to RELOCK it afrer flash ROM --> BOOTLOADER --> USB FASTBOOT, and after that we have factory state phone, but the status of bootloader is RELOCKED.
Am I Right ? There is no another way to LOCK bootloader after unlocking to use OTA ?
I'm just curious.

If your wanting to relock the bootloader I would flash to a stock Rom using fastboot and relock after that.

No no no... I know that I Can flash stock rom + stock recovery and after that relock bootloader with fasboot.
But after that bootloader show to us as RELOCKED.
My question is - Is it possible to do this an get LOCKED status of bootloader again ?
OK it is possible
I just do this on my phone...
BLTOOL in recovery --> option 4 SUPERVERSION--> make goldcard --> on goldcard inster lastest ROM.zip from RUU ( temp from windows ) reboot --> and we have stock rom with stock recovery and ***LOCKED*** status.

What locking tool you using? That seems long to get locked status.
I know this is not a phone but I locked a bootloader today on a Nexus 7 by using the same shell I unlocked it with.
I might be getting my wires crossed sorry if I am. Glad you got it sorted though.

by the shell on WFS You can lock bootloader using the same metod like before to unlock of course , but when you do this the bootloader status will be **RELOCKED** not **LOCKED**, so of course RUU and OTA update will works fine but Warranty is lost.
If you lock bootloader with this tool ( superversion option ) phone status will be **LOCKED** and you be able to flash stock ROM and stock bootloader.
My HTC ONE Verizon I have accidentally relocked and cannot flash a working recovery. S-OFF. It happened by accident while I was using WinDroid universal toolkit and hit relock by mistake, I have CWM recovery on it but I can't wipe and install a ROM without it freezing. I have tried sideloading liquidsmooth but it stalls at startup. Is there a way to get an unlocked bootloader without installing a ROM? Do I need to use an RUU and if so which one?
Thank you very much in advance.
There is a zip from Scotty's thread on how to lock/unlock using recovery or su commands.

since you are s off you can also use my ruu mode compatible trwp in my ruu thread. that will get you a custom recovery and root back. then run the command to unlock from Scotty's thread.

I'm not totally sure but you may have to downgrade in order to unlock your bootloader. And I don't think there's an official way to relock it, but why would you want to?

Flashing raw firmware can re-lock your bootloader.
OR
Flashing any MM Build with Stock Recovery can also re-lock your bootloader.
