Hello
I have some questions. Is there any consequences by unlocking boololader like a not working fingerprint sensor etc? After unlocking will working everything? And Is it possible to root htc 10 without unlockin bootloader?
Cheers
Unlocking will not break anything so you are safe to go. And it's impossible to root conveniently without unlocking the bootloader. (If any phone do root without unlocking, then it's seriously insecure by today's standard.)

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.

Hi guys, I am considering purchasing Z3C and it would be my first Sony phone, but I am hesitant because I read that in order to root it, you have to unlock its bootloader which will lead to loss of DMR keys and degrading camera output quality.
How does rooting work for Z1C? Is it possible to root without unlocking bootloader and losing DMR keys? Should I go for Z3C and hope that it will be possible in future?
In z1c you can easly root without unlocking bootloader. You need unlock bootloader if you want to have cm roms or aosp or have other kernel than stock. Z3c should have this option in future. In z1c you can backup your ta partition and always you can relock your bootloader

1) Can you root Android 6.0 without unlocking bootloader?
2) Can you relock the bootloader?
3) Do you lose warranty if you unlock the bootloader ?

If you unlock bootloader and then lock it (when the method will be available) will you have warranty?
Impossible to relock a bootloader ! and never avalaible ...
Nobody of devs ( chainfire and others included ) have succes with all sort of hacks , it's to much securised by encryption ...
Hi,
I'm really interested in buying the new Z2 play, however I've noticed that unlocking bootloader means loosing the warranty.
So, is there a way to root the phone without unlocking the bootloader?
No. Probably never will be.

I remember that there were some tools for Samsung mobiles like Towelroot which rooted the phone without triggering knox/unlocking bootloader.
It could be also useful to relock the bootloader and find a way to hidden the boot notification of unlocked device.

Towelroot is a very old exploit, and newer protection measures along with FRP make it extremely difficult if not possible at this point to unlock/relock the bootloader from Android itself.
Besides, I'm fairly sure Moto service centers will still take your phone regardless of the bootloader status given that it is a defect that is unrelated to the user (ie: ghost touches, screen burn, etc.).
