I don't see the moto g and it says the the warranty will be gone. Is it true? I heard something different those days...

Hi fella. Yes. You void your warranty. But you can unroot and its good again.
A guy on Modaco said he followed a guide there and unlocked in 5 mins. Not had time to go through it yet as am just got to work. I will ask for confirmation how later.
At least when the official version is up there'll be a link to where.

Yes your warranty will be gone, even if you later re-lock the bootloader and install a stock ROM. You still retain your consumer rights but getting a defective unit repaired or replaced will not be easy. I works fine for unlocking the Moto G.
I tought to hear something but maybe i was wrong
Btw i unlocked all my devices so no problems

Is it somehow possible to root the Moto G without unlocking the bootloader ? (Thus loosing warranty ?)

Well it's like for any other device then: Waiting for some exploit which the unlocking/rooting tools will then use to do it. That's what I'm waiting for since I don't want to loose my warranty.

Tip: If you live in the EU you won't loose your statuary warranty for rooting or unlocking the bootloader. You might loose the manufacturers (voluntary) warranty (the "Motorola Warranty"), but the statuary one should cover you for at least two years and for most faults not caused by you. You can't waive the statuary warranty, any manufacturer that tells you otherwise is breaking the law.
I'm not a lawyer, but that is generally how it works. I've had manufacturers (aka HTC) refuse to fix a phone because I've unlocked the bootloader, I stated the EU directive which said I had a warranty and they then repaired it. This only works if you are located in the EU (I don't believe it applies to the EEA) and the seller is also in the EU.

Is all you need to guarantee the success of a warranty to unroot the phone after rooting it (and flashing a ROM)? Some friends tell me that running an app called Triangle away is needed and also locking bootloader is also required. Is this true, and if so, would there be anything else I'd need to do if I rooted my phone and wanted to claim it back? Sorry but If you can't root and claim back your phone, it seems like an extremely risky move to make..
Thanks

Yes, basicaly you have to flash the latest 4.4.2 factory image and after that relock the bootloader and reset the tampered flag. Read the OP of the link serveral times so you understand what to do. You will also need adb (android-sdk platform-tools) for this if you haven`t installed it allready.
Link for adb download http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r22.3-windows.zip and here is a link to set it up on your pc http://www.redmondpie.com/how-to-set-up-android-adb-and-fastboot-on-windows-tutorial/. Good luck

What i did..
Restore DRM & relocked bootloader and flash the stock rom.... And then send it to service center and they also fix the issue for free!!
So is there any way to gain the warranty back like in samsung we can clear flash counters by "triangle away" app... And here in sony with DRM method??

Hmm... I wonder. Is it okay to pick up a single sim version? Looks like everyone has dual sim here and I'm a little worried when ROMs do get ported, it might not work on the single sim version. Would it work anyway? Or do I really have to go for the dual sim?

There are a couple of threads about relocking the BL, especially over on the 1st gen Moto G forums. However, even if you successfully re-lock your BL, the BL will still show that it was unlocked in the past. You can't hide that you have unlocked it. So, once you have unlocked it your phone will never go back to factory condition.

I know of no way on previous gens to get the warranty back. Even if the bootloader is relocked, it's still not going to restore the warranty. Just requesting the unlock code voids the warranty.
"once a Device's Unlock Code has been released by Motorola to User, the Device shall thereafter, for all intents and purposes, be deemed to be an Unlocked Device"
Hey man I find the solution after 2h search you must flash the official firmware without bootloader.img do not reboot your smartphone after the flash your control before restart
sorry bad my english
It will still be an unlocked bootloader for warranty purposes. You can never undo that.

Hi all,
I started working on the LG G5 a way back .. and now that we've got the device in stores I guess it's time to work all together to bring it up !
STATUS
- [02/04/2016] All the US Carriers/Sellers locked the bootloaders so NO TWRP possible and consequently NO CM possible
CURRENT GOALS
- Thought, all the Europe variants will be for sure unlocked so we need to prepare the sources for it
- Here is where all the sources are pushed https://github.com/G5Devs
ETA :
- The tree is made
- The vendor is made
- The kernel is made
TODO :
- Clarifying kernel sources
- Add the ramdisk to the device
- Split the g5 to g5-common and all the under variants
This thread is not a thread to release builds, it's about contributing all together into this bringup in order to get the nicest thing out of it when the bootloaders will become unlockable.
I hope we'll can work all together !

only for that specific device(s) on HTC
HTC has a portal that allows you to unlock bootloader for that specific device (hence the need to copy+paste token to HTC's portal and get the unlock key)
no doubt HTC will void warranty immediately in their system when you input token
LG doesn't have this (yet? i hope)
Yeah, was just a thought. Haven't owned a LG in some time, been on the Samsung wagon. The G5 is on my watch list of devices I might get, I like the design. I'll try to see if I can find something that might be more constructive to the cause. The HTC link was the first thing I could think of that I've dealt with.
I see that LG has release a tool for the G4 and that's device specific and seems to work on the European devices.
