Had anyone tried it before?
After I unlock my bootloader using the official method, it is a silly way to unlock your Arc S bootloader. You will lost your DRM key and FOTA bricked, I learned my lesson. If you want to unlock your phone Testpointer method is obviously a better way.
So I relock my bootloader again using a common method you can find online:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...php?p=20422618
fastboot flash -i 0x0fce getvar version
fastboot flash -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xKEY
Error: cannot load '0x0fce' is what I got after execute these command.
I am so desperate to get my bootloader unlock again and manage to switch between locked and unlock state.
Is there something to do with preset.ta file so I can unlock my device again. If the re-lock patch involving this file.
Well! It seem to solved.
Using following command:
fastboot getvar version
fastboot oem unlock 0xKEY
Thanks you guys!

Oke try this :
Download this ruu
http://bugsylawson.com/files/file/1...24-radio-5120416229-release-296434-signedexe/
Then put the phone in the bootloader and relock it :
Fastboot oem lock
Keep the phone in the locked bootloader (you also see a warning sign/text)
Now right click the ruu.exe on the pc and select "run as administrator"
It should flash the phone back to stock completely (kernel,rom and recovery)

The download will take a while! I will reply back after I do this. Thanks millions for the help bro! I will get back ASAP!
**** man! This is what I got when I went to OEM lock!
(bootloader) write sector fail !
(bootloader) [SEC] security_set_unlock(1709):
(bootloader) failed to update security data
(bootloader) Lock successfully...
FAILED (status read failed (Too many links))
finished. total time: 0.280s
I entered into TWRP somehow(most of the times it hangs) and it cant mount any partition. Caant wipe anything!
Read my post !!! You don't need to wipe anything ! Relock the bootloader (check that it says relocked) and run the RUU !!!
You have no business in the recovery at this point !
QUESTION 1:
What does the top of the bootloader say, does it say ENDEVOURU ?
QUESTION 2:
Did you flash anything to the phone from another forum ?

After I got error while locking OEM I tried to get into TWRP.
1. Yup Endevouru
2. Nop. I flashed recovery with All in one toolkit. And then Ordroid and Viper x.
Entering twrp with a locked bootloader is of no use. Did you run the ruu ?

Ok now I have successfully locked and exe uted the RU. Then the phone Booted but every single process is getting FC!
Okey, your phone should be 100% stock ! Boot into the bootloader and perform a factory reset, reboot after that and check again. If its still FCing its a fault that we can't solve with software.
Hi everyone,
I was wondering how does one can relock the bootloader, many people say it's impossible, but I'm pretty sure there is a solution.
Looking into the partition table to delete the unlocked status to locked status...
I saw in a fastboot mode with this command "fastboot erase unlock" and this cmd return "cannot erase this partition in unlocked state"
So i don't know at this point.
If anyone can help me it would be nice.
Best Regards. Aize147.
It can't be done. Not yet, anyway.

There is no way to relock the Bootloader once unlocked as of yet. I also would not wait for it.
BTW; "unlock" is not a partition. Typing "fastboot erase XYZ" will always return "cannot erase this partition in unlocked state". You really think you'd simply stumble upon a command to relock the Bootloader, don't you? xD
Haven't Tried It Yet, but....

Fastboot does contain a command "fastboot oem lock." Am I correct in assuming from LG's statement that this command would fail on an unlocked bootloader? (The explanation of this command says it will "lock your phone’s bootloader once again if locking it is actually allowed.")
I cant flash everything on fastboot mode
i have usb enabled and bootloader unlocked latest
status: Bootloop, no recovery
only fastboot mode
help for a fix ... I bricked the tab
TRIED TO RETURN TO STOCK WITH FLASH ALL.BAT BUT ALL PARTITIONS END WITH UNKNOWN COMMAND

Are you using the latest FASTBOOT.exe?
Can you screenshot the CMD?
unknown commands usually indicate an error in the command not the execution of the command.

Yes. You will need the bootloader unlock key to relock the bootloader.
fastboot oem relock <bootloader key>
