Hey guys... I have unlocked my bootloader (zenfone 5z), is there any way to RELOCK it to remove the warning? Or just remove warning?
I saw somewhere to force reset via adb but i dont know..
thanks

There is no relocking device. Genies out of the bottle.

I will receive my galaxy nexus few hours later and plan to unlock my phone. Is there a way to hide the unlock logo after I unlock the bootloader or Can I unlock the bootloader, then root the phone and relock the bootloader after to clear the logo but still get the root access. If yes, then how to relock the bootloader?
fastboot oem lock will re-lock the bootloader
But will I still get the root access of my phone after I relock the bootloader and will the unlock logo disappear when boot up after I relock the bootloader?
p.s. It is retail version
why do you need it locked?
I don't like the unlock logo at bootup and the warranty detail only state that I will lost the warranty if I unlock the bootloader, so relock it in case I need warranty, it may cheat them
so then you relock it if you need to. Development for this phone is very young right now so you'll likely be doing alot of flashing. I flash different rom/kernel combinations probably 3-5 times a day with how often things are updating right now. Besides the little unlock symbol is pretty awesome
I know the development is young, that's why I post this. I just need to confirm
1) Is it possible to relock the bootloader in retail version
2) Will the unlock logo disappear after relock
3) Will the phone can still get the root access after relock the bootloader
Thx very much and please reply me if anyone know!!

1) Yes, "fastboot oem lock"
2) Yes
3) Yes, while "fastboot oem lock" does not touch any of your data, "fastboot oem unlock WILL delete all your data. None of these processes can remove root access, the only way to remove it is to reflash the system partition, either by flashing it manually or through an OTA update.
Thx Thx Thx Thx very much
I just check my ZL and it says Bootloader Unlock Allowed - NO
Does that mean I will never be able to unlock the bootloader and install custom ROMS? I have my phone rooted and its also SIM free if that matters. Would someone be kind enough to explain the consequences?
TIA

Don't worry mate (if initially your "BL unlock allowed" was "yes")! I read it in the XZ rooting thread that if you root with a locked BL then you might have a bug resulting into BL unlock status to not allowed. Doomlord has also posted a fix for this, i think. Have a look at this thread. Hope it helps.

The thing is, I didn't check if I was allowed to unlock my bootloader before I rooted it (banging my head against a wall as I type this). Any way to find out?
EDIT: Nevermind, I see that I have to flash it and if I had an unlockable BL, the status changes to yes, and if not, then nothing changes. However, how do I flash this seeing as how there is no CWM out yet?
AW: Bootloader Unlock Allowed - NO!!
There is CWM:

But just for unlocked bootloader...
CWM for locked bootloader would be coming... krabapple is working on it...
hi mates,
if unlocking BL, i will lose BE2 & WM right? sr if this noob question was answered before
AW: Bootloader Unlock Allowed - NO!!
Yes, you loose that functionality.
And please don't ask the same question in several threads. Ask once and have patience until someone replies.
I have Xperia Z LTE C6603 with
bootloader unlock allowed:No
I Can change this to --> bootloader unlock allowed:Yes ?
as I can change it ?
Thanks.
Hello guys, sorry because may be this is the 50th time someone ask this question but the situation change every day. Yesterday I won from lottery and decide to go from G3 to G4. My model is European H815, I want to ask you can I root G4, change the recovery and e.t.c. without unlocking the bootloader? And also if I unlocked it is their any way to locked it again or to use my warranty? Thank you!!
well you can only root using low effort root(google it or find it here ) But to change recovery you have to unlock bootloader
No there is no way confirmed to relock your bootloader
GOOD LUCK
Thank you! If I root by this way and download Flashify and try to change recover what will happen ? Thank you!
without bootloader unlocked nothing will chnage ( recovery wont be installed ) and when you reboot your phone it will get u error (authentication error #9) as i remember and you will have to flash new firmware using lg flash tool 2014 so i dont recommend you do so
if u wanna change recovery unlock ur bootloader
you are welcome anytime
I did not get it, I hope you can light me up:
1. Doing root using low effort root means rooting without unlocking bootloader? (because I flew over the thread and did not read anything about it)
2. If I do unlock Marshmallow's bootloader, what happens when I downgrade to Lollipop via flashing proper KDZ? (I would guess that the unlocked bootlader will be overwritten!? So flashing Marshmallow again would end up in a locked bootloader, doesn't it?)
thanks
You can root lollipop without unlocking bootloader but with marshmalow you can't, you have to unlock the bootloader.
You need an unlocked bootloader for custom recovery.
Bootloader unlocking is a one way operation , you can't go back.

What do you mean active bootloader? Did you mean locked bootloader? How did you manage bricking device with locked bootloader anyway?

Im trapped in the start loop, and i want to try active bootloader to flash the phone. I think its a soft brick that could be fixed installing a new ROM. I already tried by EDL mode but is necessary a authorized Mi Account to do this :/
Hi there, i was trying to bootloader unlock and succesfully unlocked.
When the phone restarts i get a warning message but can this be removed ?
And is possible to relock the bootloader again?
Sry im using translate.
nobody knows I have same question
Developer.sony.com says after unlock, that oem lock is not possible.
