Can a relocked bootloader be unlocked back with same token key received via email from Motorola during first unlock..?
OR is resubmission of unlock data required..?
EDIT: Oh oh..! Seemed I mistakenly posted in wrong section. This was supposed to be in Q&A. Mod please help out moving to Q&A

I don't know exact answer but since locked bootloader has code 0, unlocked bootloader has code 3 and relocked one has code 2 I think you don't even need your received key. May be I'm wrong but I truly believe that the only thing you need to unlock relocked bootloader is enter
"fastboot oem unlock" command

First sorry about my english
Im trying unlock the bootloader , but when i click to get a code show this message "Your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking "
i tried get send email to motorola and i recieve this email " The reason why you are getting this message is because your device does not have the ability to unlock the bootloader. Since your software does not have those qualifications, unfortunately there is no way to provide you with a code"
Have another method to unlock the bootloader ?
Have you tried using Motochopper?
If your device has been unlocked previously (IE sold used) then you are not eligible for another bootloader unlock.

How check if my bootloader is locked
Please advise
It will be locked unless you unlocked it.
However, dial *#*#7378423#*#* and goto service info, configuration.
The last line will tell you the status of the bootloader.

Have you tried doing it yet, the instructions are quite obvious if you try it.
I found mine say Bootloader unlocked allowed: yes… --does it mean that I have already an unlocked bootloader?

No, it means you are allowed to unlock it.
If it was unlocked it would say
Bootloader unlocked: yes
Please remember it is impossible to unlock the bootloader by mistake, you have to go through several steps (17 steps from the Sony instructions if I remember correctly)
So unless you have done that it will be locked, no device is shipped with an unlocked bootloader

Hey everyone,
I got my new Honor 8 and as with my previous OnePlus One I just need root.
It's not that complicated to find descriptions how to unlock the bootloader (and loose the warranty), relock it and even get the "locked" status again without (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70177996&postcount=7) and with DC Unlocker (https://www.dc-unlocker.com/how-to-lock-bootloader-from-relocked-to-locked) in case I understood everything right.
But the important qustion of course is if one (for example Huawei) can see that its relocked. So first, what does it say if you get the status over the command prompt? And even if it's "locked" there is there any other way you can see?
I don't expect a warranted answer but maybe someone who is firm with android coding or what ever can at least say what he thinks?
Thanks a lot!
If you relock it with a fastboot command then yeah. But if you use a rollback package to return to emui 4.1, everything gets wiped in a way that makes the bootloader status "locked"
Could please someone at least check the first question with his unlocked phone?
Edit: Didn't see your reply and don't now how to delete mine... Thanks anyway!

As far as i know yeah, unless there is some secret way for them to know it. If you unlock the bootloader with a code and then lock it again it will show the bootloader status as "relocked" in fastboot mode, indicating that the device was tampered with in the past. But the "locked" status you get in the rollback process is the same as on a phone that was never modified. I found this "trick" accidentally when restoring a bricked phone using the rollback package and think it's pretty handy.

Not sure if u'll read this. When I was stuck in the same issue somewhere around July 2017 I was devastated and thought if I were to relock my bootloader how to do so without it saying relocked (If you do it by fastboot it will 100% say so). I tried the rollback method on seeing this and u sure r right. It says LOCKED and looks as though my phone was never tampered with ?.
I came across this thread researching abt something and though I'd thank you!

I got the bootloader unlocked.
Please close the post. I have no idea how to do that.
I have a TracFone moto g pure (XT2163DL) running android 12, build number S3RHS32.20-42-13-2-1. I managed to get my oem unlock to show up and turned it on. First I tried using the Motorola unlock site to unlock my bootloader but it said it wasn't eligible. So then I tried using fastboot command "fastboot oem unlock" and a screen popped up telling me I can choose to unlock my bootloader and when I told it to unlock I received a message saying it was successful. But it isn't. It said it's unlocked but yet it is still locked anyway. I know TracFone has problems unlocking bootloader's but why would it let me get that far if it is impossible to unlock? Is there anything else I can do? If anyone knows something else I can try please point me in the right direction. I don't mind doing my homework after all that's how I learn but I'm just at a point where I need some guidance.please help me and always thank you so much for your time in advance...
If the bootloader reports unlocked, what makes you say it's still locked?

Nothing is wiped and it still says OEM secured on the fastboot page. The only difference now is when I try to reboot back into system it will first boot back into the bootloader again and then it will boot into system when I reboot a second time
