You can unlock it using the test poit method. But be carefully!
I've succeded using this method.

You may not have access to fastboot and I think the BL unlocking will not solve your problem because you will not be able to use the fastboot to flash new kernels.
You can unlock it using a paid method.
Here is a link with a post with the same problem

Nope, root doesn`t wipe data bro. Its unlocking the Bootloader that wipes the device, this is necessary to root the device.

Use HELIUM app to backup your personal data before unlocking the BL. (doesn't need root access)
There was way on 4.2.2 JB without unlocking boot loader motochoppers method but it won't work on Kitkat ,currently there is no method to do without unlocking boot loader, why not u unlock it after getting out of the box.

Hi,
The only way to get your phone's bootloader unlocked if the unlock status says no, is paying for it.
Now, you can't enter fastboot? That's because your bootloader isn't unlocked!
Hope I helped and a ha a nice day!

I believe there are a couple or ROM s out there for your J, that don't need an unlocked bootloader. Just search through the forum!
Hope I helped and have a nice day

By unlocking the bootloader . Plus, you only need fastboot for flashing a kernel with recovery.

You can't use backups to go back and forth between Marshmallow and Lollipop. If you want to use this rom you need to go over to the unlocking bootloader thread and follow directions to update your bootloader to QA1 the flash this rom and your hardware keys will work
I figured it out. My backup was that of 5.1.1, when I upgraded to marshmallow i updated the bootloader. Anyways, I flashed this perfectly as I was on marshmallow firmware and bootloader. Hardware keys working and all. Thanks man.

Anyone else find that QA1 results in excess battery drainage?
Reinstalled it a couple of times and found the same thing. Had no issues with PL1 and reverted back to it with the same Data and the battery usage seems fine again.

Just follow this it will work. After unlocking the bootloader (official or unofficial bl unlock), run the cmd for flashing the official twrp "fastboot flash boot_a twrp-3.2.3-1-NB1.img" & "fastboot flash boot_b twrp-3.2.3-1-NB1.img" then after flashing run the cmd "fastboot reboot recovery", then flash magisk for rooting.

Is the twrp out yet?
My Phone got an update a few days ago and it gave me the ability to unlock bootloader. I did not actually finish the process to unlock because I want to wait for others to try it out first. The update was supposed to enhance the face unlock and did not mention Anything about bootloader unlock being activated. Any brave souls out there who has tried it yet?
