I wouldn't take a two year old article as necessarily accurate for newer phones, nor trustworthy no matter what. Until someone reports success with it, I'll still tell anyone who asks "no". ?

Hello, my Xperia xa2 ultra (H3213) don't relock bootloader... And I can not flash firmware because I find no version "STOCK" for this version

How did u unlock your bootloader on that phone because when I do it it says waiting for device in the adb on the computer and I did everything else right I think any ideas

I unlocked mine by installing fastboot drivers for the XZ2. It kept hanging up on 'waiting for device's too. But worked after installing those drivers. I can't figure out how to flash twrp though. I get error 'no such partition'.

Damn! ...

That evil misleading boot screen message for this phone, for the longest time I felt reassured that should the time come that I'd want to sell my phone that I'd be able to "lock the bootloader". I never really looked into it because of that message... Until now, when I want to actually sell it!
Obviously this confirms otherwise. It's a shame I cant just relock it and sell it on

No it's not real! Chainfires website is having issues and it shouldn't be there and if you flash that you're going to brick the phone!
Thanks for the heads up. Sucks people got to be so shady.
It also says 'should have unlocked bootloader' which no one has been able to do yet. Having the bootloader unlocked is not really a 'should' it is a 'must' have for that model Verizon.

Apparently a lot of people aren't bothering to read about it first and asking over and over if it works.. I've got way to many emails or private messages about it.

found me https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...o-remove-unlocked-bootloader-warning-t3201141
THIS is different on my XZ!
But there might be a way without writing a new bootloader.
The guy just patched a binary to jump to the same display as if the bootloader was locked.
No big deal but still highly risky.
I do not know how it works on the XZ. And since this does not bother me, I will not invest my time or risk my phone on a solution.

If it is soft (I do not know) then you could still flash the original binary.

You people are foolish even more than me. I wanna abuse you but can't.
If your device shows Bootloader status unlocked allowed 'yes'
Then goto unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com
And select device modle and enter emi number and fu+k yourself and get an unlock code.
And use experifirm to flash any regions firmware even global too.

Please keep your temperament low, Mister.
And thank you for "misguiding" people. I unlocked bootloader, downloaded a ton of roms and none would flash. Each one of them results in errors. Downloaded any custom roms available, most go into bootloop while some wont install even.
Relocked bootloader and still wont install OTAs so I am stuck with stock MM with no possibility of getting Nougat because on SO-01H Nougat update is OTA only and there is no FTF available anywhere.
Thanks again. And please dont swear on public forums.

I am sorry for my misbehave with you people but keep one thing in mind and remember that forever I never misguided anyone in my life and here which I told you about unlocking the device was absolutely perfect ? and that was the only thing I told you and that's a childish work....
I think you're a jeffal jalwatri person

Thats OK.
I have no idea what jeffal jetwari is, but rest assured your advice was acted upon and it made me lose too many hours trying to fix it. No ftf's for other variants work, not even the global version, no custom roms work and there is really not much of a benefit having unlocked the bootloader. So please only advise on something you have experienced personally.

Question Bootloader unlock

So long story short
I purchased the tencent version from a reseller, that had unlocked the bootloader and flashed the WW firmware, changed the FP & then relocked it.
Now I'm f##### and don't know what to do.
Can anyone please assist me with any information in regards to "how to unlock without the unlock tool"
Or, direct me to someone/website that I can pay to have it done.
Muchly appreciated

who is he? can he help me?
The rumor is that once the bootloader is unlocked and locked again, it can no longer be unlocked a second time. It may work to flash a new bootloader (which is what the EDL restore does as part of the process).
I would suggest taking a look into https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/repair-your-asus-rog-phone-5-with-edl-mode.4271121/ but know that the directions are pretty rough. Make sure to read everything twice before clicking buttons and if you watch the video, make sure to wait until he moves to the next step before following along because it looks like the video was his first time doing it.

You need to use "SM8350" firehose for my share files. Then hopefully it will work.

If I follow, you have the file for a 660 and need the one for an 888.

Sorry, i understand what you mean.. I thought 660 was the snapdragon version, but It's actually the vulkan version.

Question concerning the above.
I unlocked BL, flashed Magisk, but now, without any action from my side I see "unlock OEM" option is not greyed as it was during unlocking BL.
Does it mean it locked itself?
Mentioned rumor I hear first time, but it is good anyway that I've read it early enough, before playing too far with my smartphone.
