Done Flashing Stock Recovery, have fun!

Nothing after ...
But i can flash ota via sideload, o don't have local flash ...

You have to go into settings -> developer options (google how to make it visible) and then check "allow oem unlock" That will do the trick
Then you can unlock bootloader via adb, just as you were trying earlier.

Thanks you.

there is no android system of any kind on my phone, and bootloader is locked, as above it does say remote bootloader unlock not allowed, as i cant go in settings and tick the allow oem unlock option is there any other way to unlock bootloader??

The problem there is that you haven't unlocked your bootloader. As the kernel is not stock you cannot write it to your phone with a locked bootloader. Open up your phone dialer and then type *#*#7378424#*#*, then tap Service Info and then Configuration. Look to Rooting Status, if bootloader unlock allowed says no then you cannot unlock the bootloader. If it says yes then follow this method to unlock the bootloader. It will wipe all data on the phone so make backups before you do so.
Once the bootloader is unlocked you will be able to use flashtool to fastboot flash the kernel with CWM embedded.
If the unlock status says no then follow this thread to root your phone with a locked bootloader.

[Q] Can't unlock a relocked phone: Remote: not allowed

Hi,
I've relocked my HOX (1.72 HBOOT, 4.18.401.4 mainver, and HTC__Y13 CID) but now I'm not able to unlock it to install cwm. When I try to unlock via fastboot I get the following error:
C:\Users\XXX>fastboot flash unlocktocken c:\Unlock_code.bin
sending 'unlocktocken' (0 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.141s]
writing 'unlocktocken'...
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.354s
How should I proceed? Thanks guys
Get a brand new one via the HTC dev site and try again. But why on earth did you relock it to begin with ?

I followed some "back to stock" guide (from h t t p s://w w w.youtube.com/watch?v=SZuAjz4PIjU) for HOX that included installing a stock recovery and relocking the phone. However, I couldn't find the correct RUU. I tried using a new unlock token from HTCdev but obviously it didn't work as it's identical. Thanks for the help though!
Lesson learned....never do something before you gathered all the files needed !
Are you flashing the token correctly, is the phone connected to the pc on a usb 2.0 port (not a usb hub or other in between connection) ?
You were unlocked, what does the bootloader say now ?
Locked or relocked ?

The phone is connected directly to the USB and it is Relocked, occassionally showing the "security warning" under it. I downloaded the correct nandroid backup for the phone, but as I don't have a custom recovery I'm not able to use it. I tried to flash a stock recovery (again) but I keep getting the same "FAILED (remote: not allowed)" whenever I try to do any changes to the phone.
Why it is btw that we can't have a RUU for a certain version? No way to downgrade ?
S-on devices cant downgrade,only s-off devices can. But you need to find a shop that can offer that specific service, can't do it in anyway at home.
But i see you flash the unlock code from a specific folder. Try it like this :
Open the command prompt directly from the fastboot.exe folder and place the unlock code.bin file in that specific directory too ! Then perform the unlock fastboot command again

Unfortunately that didn't work. It seems there's not much I can do now.
you did fastboot flash unlocktocken instead of fastboot flash unlocktoken.
trying to flash to a non existing partition gives this error.
I had same problem when I did fastboot flash unlock instead of unlocktoken
so unlock with ck and token without ck

man all credits goes to @vastloper and next time it will be good to copy the command from the HTCdev site not to write it manually use the right command
@vastloper it will be good to quote him to see your comment. when you quote him he will receive the notification and will see his mistake with sure:good:

Thanks a lot! :victory: I did indeed make a typo on that, and used the same command over and over again without rewriting it.
I was able unlock and recover back to stock. However, I'm not still able to use my phone due to the blank/black screen issue, and will be further investigating that.
Does anyone have a O2__001 CID Stock Rom??

You are trying to flash TWRP with a locked bootloader and it obviously fails. Download the full official ROM from OnePlus site and the corresponding recovery also. First flash the recovery and reboot to bootloader and then flash the OS and reboot. If you are successful, you can enable Developer Options and from there OEM unlock and USB debugging. Thereafter you can try TWRP, Magisk and other ROMs.
Hmm, I thought he said he can enter bootloader and recovery. If so, reboot the phone in stock recovery and flash full Rom from local update.

NO.
So that is where you are committing a mistake. You have not been reading the posts carefully.
All of us are asking you to download the STOCK recovery compatible with the version of the stock ROM chosen by you and to FLASH THE STOCK RECOVERY FIRST, NOT TWRP.
Because TWRP can't be flashed with a locked bootloader whereas the stock recovery can be flashed from bootloader. Then go for the ROM, sideload it using adb and boot.

Oh i see now where can i find the lastest recovery and by how i need to flash it, in adb sideload (recovery.img) or fastboot flash recovery (oneplus recovery.img)?

That's weird. What I'd suggest is for you to try a different (newer?) version of fastboot. Try downloading straight from Google:

Can not unlock my bootloader anymore after flashed stock firmware

I've unlock my bootloader of my XT1789-03(Sprint) with Android 7. Then I flashed stock firmware of Android 8. Now the bootloader is locaked, and I cannot flash any firmware anymore.
The Motorola webside said "Your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking.". The old unlock key does not work.
When I try to unlock with my old UNIQUE_KEY, I got the following prompt.
(bootloader) Check 'OEM unlocking' in Android Settings > Developer
(bootloader) Options

Unfortunately, this is not possible
Thanks for your quick answer.
Guess I'm stuck with this firmware.
