I recently received the interim update for Android 6.0. Only problem is that I unlocked my bootloader, and when I try to update it boots into Fastboot and requires effort to get out and boot back up... without updating. Can anyone help me relock my bootloader? Running Android 5.0.2

has anyone rooted and unlocked bootloader then got the 4.0.2 update? Also allied the update? If so does root & bootloader still work?
I updated to 4.0.2 then oem unlocked and rooted the device with out issue.
Easy root will always work on Nexus devices.
1. Bootloader
2. fastboot oem unlock
will always be there. It's a Nexus device, they encourage you to hack/modify your phone.

Hello there!
I have a locked H815 and I've had many issues with it, especially when I upgraded to 6.0 and V20D. I've got it back from repairs and it's been downgraded to Android 5.1.
I saw that it's ok to use LGUP and flash 5.1 and 6.0 firmwares and that doesn't require an unlocked bootloader nor root.
Now, I want to ask if I unlock my bootloader, will I still be able to receive OTA updates? Or updates through LG Bridge?
Also, if I install a custom ROM right now, will I be able to successfully flash the stock firmwares and have the phone as it was just with an unlocked bootloader?
Thanks!

Well I bought my zenfone 2 it's been 1 year ago, and on the end of 2016 I rooted it because I don't had hope on 6.0.1 update anymore since it was full of bugs. I still on 5.0 and now I want to update to 6.0.1 but I don't know how. My bootloader is unlocked and I have TWRP I was planning on flash the stock recovery and then push the update but there is the problem. Can I update with unlocked bootloader? Or I'll need to lock it again then update? I really can't bare with the 5.0 firmware anymore and I need to update. But since I don't have a constant access to a computer I don't want to brick my phone.
Yes, I tried search for tutorials online but all I get is how to unlock bootloader on zenfone 2 on the 6.0 firmware and how to root it..but I don't get none answer to my question so I hope someone here can help me.

Hello Everyone! I received the OTA update for Nougat 7.1.1 today. The download completes without any issue. But once I restart, for a second the android update starting logo appears and immediately the android character appears with an error sign. When I reboot I am taken to 7.0 and I get a notification saying that the update was unsuccessful. What should I do? I tried this for 3 times and my net is really slow and I have already wasted over 3GB. Please help!
Try clearing the System Cache.
If your bootloader is unlocked, the system update will fail. I'm not sure if your bootloader is unlocked though
I'm having that same issue as Raja37. I never unlocked the bootloader either.
Yes my bootloader is unlocked. Is there any way to relock it?
My bootloader is unlocked and the 7.1.1 update applied just fine.
I don't know what happened to my device.
we can't relock, only service centers can, bcz moto do not provide publicly signed rom
Hi,
I have question so my phone has an unlocked bootloader and is rooted, recently I got the notification for the pie update to Android 9. My question now can I still update without problems or should I unroot and lock my bootloader again?
Do not ever relock your bootloader. Unless you were planning on selling it.
So the update will be no problem? But won't it be noticed in the update process and cause problems?

The bootloader being unlocked had nothing to do with updating. But root might , I'm not sure I don't take OTA updates. Magisk Is a systemless root so it may work fine , I haven't ever tried.
The unlocked bootloader is fine. Worst case scenario you lose your root and have to reroot your phone, which is easy to do. I upgraded from 8 to 9 without issue with an unlocked bootloader, all I had to do was reroot the phone
