You don't. You know the saying.... Once you go bootloader unlocked, you never go back. :laugh:
There's a DRM fix which brings back camera and other functionalities that are usually lost on unlock. So use that.

Yes, make sure to backup your TA first, otherwise you can't relock it again.

Hi I wonder how do I unroot Honor 6 I need it because I need to Get the phone in store so I can get a new screen (activate the varenty)
Sadly even if you unrooted they would know you have unlocked the bootloader. You should do the warranty via the retailer.
Don't try any unroot method/App. It will not 100% unroot your phone. Flash the stock Rom + relock the bootloader ( you would need the unlock code you used to unlock your boot loader to re-lock the bootlader. When you do those two steps, go the retail store and use your warranty without any issues

You can see the bootloader was unlocked by going to fastboot mode.

What does it show on fastboot mode if you locked the bootloader?

I don't know the precise wording but it goes something like "relocked state" or "relocked bootloader".

If it says REloced, then it will be depending on the warranty. But if it says Locked, then there is no issue.

If the person is wanting to unroot, that means they've unlocked the bootloader to root. That also means if they relocked the bootloader, the service center would know.

If the person isn't trying to understand the opposite side, and arguing instead of asking for clarification then he wouldn't really get the point!

Hey guys! I unlocked my bootloader keeping my DRM Keys by using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292598
Now I'm on ZyxxOS ROM and I would like to return to stock ROM, make root and relock the bootloader.
The problem is that I don't know how I can root the phone after flashing the ftf of the stock ROM, can someone tell me how o provide me a link to a tutorial? I've searched and didn't see any around the forum

Flash an insecure kernel. Its the easiest way to root. But in the OP you said you wanted to re-lock the bootloader, then you cannot boot an insecure kernel.
Please let me know if you will have a locked or unlocked bootloader.

Why? You will lose root when you re-lock
Just go back to stock and re-lock then use the massive thread in the general section to root.
Also, that rooting method works on unlocked bootloaders as well. Anything that works on a locked bootloader works on an unlocked bootloader as well.

I want to root my honor 8 L04 but I was wondering if it will void my warranty.

Yes it does and the current method for rooting is kinda sketchy at this time. I'm waiting untill the lineage ROM is done and hopefully by then we will have a better rooting method.

Is it possible to relock bootloader after unlock? I've read a lot of opposing opinions about this :/

Yes you can relock the bootloader, however it will say relocked bootloader and not locked bootloader like it originally said so you can still see that the bootloader had been unlocked at some point.

To get the status "locked" back you have to downgrade to emui 4.1

I have one question, if I had unlocked bootloader, installed TWRP and rooted my phone, then unrooted it, reverted to stock recovery and relocked bootloader, can I still receive OTA updates?

no its not , the latest version of twrp posted in the dev section fix's all the issues before
now its as simple as Unlock / Flash TWRP / Flash the version of supersu in the twrp post / Profit !
Hi,
I haven't done anything in the way of rooting or custom recovery or anything. I did unlock the bootloader first thing due to the wipe that occurs as part of the process.
How do I relock the bootloader? I did some research and all that I've found so far is people cautioning for past OP devices about the standard relock procedure so I just wanted to ask the question to make sure I don't break anything.
I am on Stock everything so can I just fastboot oem lock?

Yep, that should be it as long as you didn't root.

Awesome thanks. Yea no root yet for me, all I did was unlock the BL so I didn't have to wipe my phone later.
Thanks!

Do we get widewine l1 back after relocking the bootloader?
U could always use the msm unbrick tool

You do know that any time you unlock or relock your bootloader it will wipe your phone?

Yup that's why the first thing I did was unlock it. Now I am relocking it since I don't intend to keep it.

Maybe I'm confused but why did you unlock it in the first place if you were just going to relock it?
Edit: I think I follow now, you unlock the bootloader when you first got the phone and now you're not keeping the phone so you're relocking the bootloader?

I got the phone, unlocked it so I wouldn't have to wipe later, used it for a week, decided it's not for me, and am relocking it.
