When unlocking did you turn OEM unlock on in developer setting

ive been having this overheating issue with the phone, basically at times it gets really hto while chargeing. so im pretty sure i will have to send it in and id like to know a way to relock the bootloader so i may do so
Hi,
BootLoader unlocked by giving Motorola all infos to receive a bootloader unlock code ???
Obviously they already know your Moto G is unlocked...
im pretty sure that the motorola tech support doesnt even check for that, theyre not very bright. i would just like to relock the bootloader just so that warning doesnt come up when i turn it on

Ok ok...so, after just 10 secs of research, here you go : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2597856
(flashing a bootlogo will do the job, if it's only for warning message...flash a Motorola original one...)

I don't think it matters. Just do:
fastboot oem lock
im getting an error, sst lock failure
i used the guide form the motorola faq thread, the one that satanas posted has broken links and hard to follow

Did you fix that bootloader/ I also have same problem help me
yes i did relock using the faq, my moto g actually ran into a problem where my moto g wouldnt boot, so i had no problem restore the phone in the process
My moto G 3rd generation is currently locked by my carrier. Have 3 more months until they will give me the unlock code. My question is, if I root and install custom rom, does that have anything to do with the carrier network locking? Will installing a Custom rom do away with the lock allowing me to change carrier's. Should I just wait until the phone has been carrier unlocked. Thanks!

They have nothing to do with each other.

Thanks. BTW I have received my unlock bootloader code from moto. In their instructions to unlock with the code, it doesn't mention having to go into developer mode and check off allow oem unlock. I read other forum post saying you have to do this.
Looking for advice. What is this option for?
Thanks!

You do have to do this... I do not know why it isn't in the instructions anywhere, it should be.
Hello.is their any method to root moto g3 without unlocking bootloader ? i am on Android M
Nope. Trying to do so with 1 click tools may end up with a brick.
Broadcasted from Zeta Reticuli
Exactly as @Gravemind2015 said. No. You cannot root without unlocking the bootloader. Do not attempt any other methods than described here, they can and will fail, potentially leaving you bricked.

is it possible to unlock bootloader without wiping the whole device ? I have unlocked it before and later relocked back.

No, any unlock will wipe the device doesn't matter if it's the first or 20th time.

Thanks i already knew but hope is the mother of invention right bro ? By the way there is OEM unlocking option under developer option, what is it meant for ? Do i need to keep it on before re unlocking ? I have not seen it before :fingers-crossed:

The OEM Unlocking option is what allows you to unlock the bootloader in the first place. If you are in fastboot mode and have not toggled that option, it won't allow you to unlock the bootloader. As for relocking the bootloader, I'm not sure. Though I can't imagine you WOULD need it toggled for it.

When you relock, it turns the option off... You need to turn it back on.

Probably nothing you can do, there is no other way to unlock the bootloader.
There is a chance that the unlock site isn't working, and is giving a false " not eligible" message it happens.
if that's the case you just will have to keep trying the site.
Which CID does the device have?
Code:
fastboot getvar cid

I have a cid that is ineligible, 0x0002, originally I didn't want to admit that it was impossible since it seems silly for motorola to control the phone that I own, but when I read up about the cid, yeah, it won't work, thanks for replying to me though!
Does this mean Stylus 2020's bootloader are unable to unlocked now?

0x0002 is the Verizon Cid, Verizon doesn't want the bootloader unlocked.
Verizon branded devices are rarely able to be unlocked, same for At&T.

Only if you buy it through a Carrier like Verizon.

ok so I have got a moto g pure (XT2163DL) with a tracfone bootloader and ive accepted that I cant find anyway so far to get my unlockable bootloader unlocked. I have looked and tried everything I could find without using a paid service which is probably what I need to do or just get another phone but first I have one more idea but I just dont know if it is even still possible or not. Can I use the cyanogenmod installer on my phone and unlock my bootloader and then switch back and keep an unlocked bootloader? Im running android 12. My oem unlock switch is not greyed out and it is set to unlock and even though I have tried using fastboot oem unlock and it said it was successful , it wasnt really unlocked afterall. motorola site just says my bootloader cant be unlocked. Is this a viable option?
