This phone(honor 4c indian edition) belonged to my friend and he rooted with kingo root app and aftewards unrooted it. Then he gave it to me to do it properly on opening the fastboot mode i've discovered that the bootloader was unlocked, so i tried flashing twrp recovery but it failed and just showed command not allowed. Ive tried factory reset, updating firmware by upadate.app, ive even tried flashing the stock rom through fastboot(extracted from the update.app) but nothing works . So as a last resort i came here , please tell me what to do right now.
Note: the phone was always on stock rom and nobody intentionally tried to unlock the bootloader im guessing the kingo root did it. And it also does not work right now.

Kingo root and other such apps use exploits to get the root done. Not the safe way to do.
You just have to unlock the bootloader using the standard procedure for your phone and you are good to go.
It does not matter that it's unlocked, just do it again once more.
Just google or search here on XDA and enjoy your phone.

Have you turned on USB debugging and OEM unlock in the developer options?
Developer options can be seen after repeatedly tapping build number 7 times.

I don't own a 4C now but if I remember correctly, there used to be something like that or may be I am mistaken.
Anyways, firing fastboot devices does show your device in the listed devices?
And have you tried flashing an image again after firing that unlocking command?
Yes it does show up in fastboot devices

After revoking the debugging authorisation and factory resetting the phone, the unlock command worked!!! And everything else also works. Thanks for your help, appreciate it

Nope, thank you for teaching me that if unlock command does not work, one can do the above steps to make it work.
We are even then:highfive:

Sadly I was a liite bit to fast with the BL unlock. I can't relock it by adb, but I've have to. Any idea ?
Thank you in advance.

Well, first you'll need to explain how you unlocked the bootloader on a snapdragon S8+?
It's done by the crom_service tool by jesse chan

I never heard of it. FWIW, with a device that has an unlockable bootloader, one would use FASTBOOT, not ADB. Command is:
Fastboot OEM lock
With that said, I haven't a clue if this will work on your device.

The g9500 (the snapdragon s8 family in Hong Kong/china) is unlockable using the crom service/KIWIBIRD in steady thing.
Unfortunately I have no idea what is involved. Why do you want to relock? Did you flash something already? FYI if you are 0x1 WARRANTY_VOID you cant undo that part
My problem is, that Samsung Health is detecting " rooted device"
Hello,
I couldn't unlock the bootloader as the OEM unlocking's disabled and i can't access system! Everything's erased!
Any help????
A bit more info might be helpful mate.
What did you do to arrive at the situation you are in?
Can your pc see your device via ADB and if so what are you using: latest platform tools or toolkit?
Can you boot to stock recovery or bootloader?
Without any of the above info its going to be extremely difficult for anyone to give any kind of answer.

The device isn't recognized via ADB.
I can boot to Bootloader
The phone was working fine with the latest google stock android 10, i decided to lock the bootloader cuz the phone was getting overheated so i thought it'd be a good idea to lock the bootloader. Prior to do that, it asked me to erase everything! I erased everything and when i tried to reinstall the stock image it asked me to unlock the bootloader!!
The problem is that USB debugging isn't enabled and the phone is empty with no system!

Ouch! That's a right old situation you have there mate, with no OS installed a locked bootloader and no ADB function I'd have to say your phone is non recoverable!
Sorry mate but I can't see anyway out of that lot.
Maybe someone else a bit more knowledgeable might chip in but I'm deffo out of ideas.

But there must a solution to this! I mean my phone isn't under warranty and I'm willing to go for paid services to unlock the bootloader!

Try switching slots, assuming the pixel is an A/B device. Maybe you still have a bootable system in your other slot and I don't think you need an unlocked bootloader to switch slots

Make sure you have the latest fastboot. On the bootloader your phone will either say "slot a" or "slot b" and you should type "fastboot --set-active=b" if you are on slot a or "fastboot --set-active=a" if you are on slot b
still didn't fix the problem... any probable solutions please?
I tried for my first time to unlock my phone's bootloader and thought it was something really easy to customize the
phone firmware on the other hand was not what I thought and I don't know much about computer science or customizing a firmware;
and then without being able to install a root or any modification I decided to re-lock the bootloader (because i dont want it anymore) only that I did not succeed with various tutorials and I did not find any for the samsung galaxy a12. I just unlocked the bootloader from developer options settings and ran what the tutorial said on how to activate it without installing a root or customization of anything.
can someone please help me.

Well it shouldn't be hard really. How did you unlock it in the first place?
Wait, is it really so hard to lock the bootloader on Samsung devices? Makes me think twice about buying one now if I can't simply lock it with a command like fastboot oem lock.

It's not hard to relock as its not hard to unlock it.
If you've followed any unlocking bootloader tutorial, after enabling OEM unlock option, you have to enter downlod mode and long press the volume up to enter unlock mode and then procedd to actually unlocking it.
For relocking it, just go to the download mode again, then long press the volume up and you'll have the option to re-lock it.

Samsung phones have a download mode instead of a fastboot mode, so you can't use commands like fastboot oem unlock

No problem. Happy to help
you guys knows what that means. I can't get it to do anything. Can't use any of the tools. Flash permission denied on everything. Even the Motorola rescue assistant tool doesn't support the device. Does anyone have any recommendations? All I can boot to is a locked Bootloader mode
Can you unlock the bootloader again?

Nope. OEM unlock is not turned on in settings. neither is USB debugging.
So you're saying you locked the bootloader on custom firmware, and while Android still runs, you can't unlock it again?
This is why you should NEVER lock the bootloader on custom firmware.

What possessed your faculties to make you lock your bootloader after the hassle it can be to get them to let you unlock in the first place?

Exactly what I'm saying. I was drinking. got angry at certain bugs it had after rooting and well here we are. I can't even find any info on test points for edl on this model. It's just a $40 phone but it's the ONLY phone I have.

Sorry to hear that. If you're unable to unlock the bootloader with fastboot commands, I don't think there's anything you can do. I assume you don't have root?
you try and EDL cable yet? if you don't have one you can make one by stripping back a bit of insulation and shorting the black and green together with the device off, then at the same time click all three buttons 3-4 times until you see the 9008 port show up in device monitor (WINDOWS)
if that fails and you're feeling brave (or you have really good anti-virus software) you could always give something like this a shot
