I have searched everywhere where the answer is "No. Moto G5 Amazon Variant cannot be unlocked". Unless I checked myself. And BOOM!!! The unlock code is on my email. Will see tmrw if we can unlock the bootloader. Need to search for a method to root then.
But I guess, I will do that when Oreo gets released for G5 . Cheers.
Don't update the phones software via OTA when official Oreo is launched whilst bootloader is unlocked. I'm sure this bricks the phone?
How did you get the website to accept your (Amazon) "fastboot oem get_unlock_data" string?
When I enter it on the Motorola custhelp.com site, it tells me my bootloader is ineligible for unlocking.
Note that I have both an Amazon G5 Plus and a non-Amazon G4 Plus in case I need to do something with the non-Amazon phone first.

Hi
I unlocked the bootloader when I first got the phone. I am going to sell it soon to make way for the Nexus 6P.
Is it possible to remove the bootloader unlocked warning when the phone first boots up?
Thanks for any advice.
i guess nope
If your selling and want it back to original the only way I know is fastboot oem lock

If you're going to sell a device that is bootloader unlocked, you have to tell this the person you're selling it to, since it's no longer covered by the warranty. Don't tell me it is. Currently only the European model is unlockable and here in europe laws and regulations are unified among countries within the EU. I hope you do. Otherwise it's just fraudulent, but that's none of my business.

No, that command does not work on bootloader unlockable devices unless it's a Nexus/OPO/OPT/Huawei/Oppo and some older Motorola devices. etc.
I unlocked my bootloader to try CM13, but I'm not happy. Now I can't find any guides or pages that explain how I can revert my phone back to original state (bootloader locked)? Can't sell this phone when the device unlocked text is on the boot screen
Plese don't respond if you just tell me to google or search, because I did that...

There is no way to lock to the bootloader again. Once unlocked it's unlocked for good.

Does and Unlocked Bootloader just affect DRM content and Can an Unlocked Bootloader take an OTA or work through LG bridge / LGUP?
I must admit.. I couldnt do it

Yep, DRM content is fine, I've not encountered anything that doesn't work.
I returned to stock with LGUP and took OTAs on my previous device when I did the warranty return and didn't have any issues.

I just checked apparently my phone is the 2pw2100 021-A ...I know you could root it with 7.0.. but I updated as soon as I got the phone ...is there a way to root it still ?
i believe that means its oem locked to verizon, you would need to contact them about unlocking it but im not sure if verizon will, im in the UK but from what i hear verizon wont help much

You bought a Verizon variant. With Verizon models you can't check "oem unlock" so you can't unlock the bootloader. You are stuck with a locked phone. No root.

Maybe, the people on this thread: Verizon Pixel Bootloader unlocked? by EstiR86
Had their Verizon Pixel/Pixel XL unlocked by Smail. You can also reach him via ebay: item 222913601503
thats the best, and only bet. good luck.
I've read here that the bootloader is locked on T-Mobile's OP7T, are we screwed when it comes to rooting? Doing a search for HD1907, I hardly see anything related to rooting it successfully. Has anyone done it yet? Is there hope for us HD1907s?
Thanks!

You can request a sim unlock from mobbdeep and you'd be able to unlock your bootloader once you sim unlock your phone. Then you can proceed to convert to international if you please.
Edit: it's a week wait period just like previous tmo OnePlus devices we should know this.

MobbDeep has unlocked my SIM, but how does that affect the bootloader? Is there a bootloader unlock app that I can get from T-Mo?

Bootloader unlock is in the developer options section of settings. you have to get the unlock token and submit it to OnePlus for your unlock bin. Once the unlock bin is flashed you're bootloader unlocked.

Know of any disadvantages to switching to the US Global version of the OS? Seems like those are being updated faster than the T-Mobile versions.
I'm planning on writing up some documentation about the conversion process once I get my unlock code (should be here tomorrow which means it might take me a few days to mess with it and get it all nice and neat)

You don't. It takes exactly 7 days from when you submitted it. You can check back on the site you submitted the request on and you'll see when it's done, and you can then download it from there. Pestering OnePlus or T-Mobile does nothing, you won't get it any faster.

Phone was sold as unlocked.
So how to unlock ? free or paying for it.
I would except a partial refund if it would be unlocked.
edit: seems it is EE UK its locked to , got a popup
Unlock carrier
Hi, you can unlock the carrier by reflashing the OS on the phone. PM me if you have further inquiries.

Really? Just got in contact with the seller and he will unlock it with EE.
But can you flash the pixel on locked bootloader? and it will get rid of carrier lock as well?
.
Yes, it gets rid of the carrier lock and it changes to the International version. Though there is another way you can unlock it and that doesn't require flashing the phone.

That requires paying for an unlock code for the phone, they are usually between 5 to 8 US$.

I would not trust this muhammad guy as he is using "sim unlock" language interchangably with device lock. If it is a verizon locked device with OEM unlock greyed out, it is my understanding there is no way to ever fix that. Verizon is the one that implemented that lock, they will not help you unlock it, even if you tell them you are a developer. They tell you to get a google pixel phone directly from google for developer purposes.
having your phone "sim-unlocked" is very different from the device being unlocked.
v12xke said:
If you have already 100% WIPED your phone, skipped through setup and gone straight to dev settings with an active Wi-FI signal and get a greyed out OEM unlock , you will likely never succeed because you inadvertently purchased a bootloader locked phone. SIM unlocked definitely does not equal BL unlockable.

But if it is a Verizon version that was able to be OEM Unlocksd and flashed to LOS like I have done, it is now unlocked? Somehow I was lucky in being able to enable OEM unlock on mine.
